Please keep all discussions of the penultimate leg for the TAR-Stars until at least 11:00EDT or until the West Coast figures out for us why they ended up having two consecutive NEL's in a row with the penalty of "Marked for Elimination"........

The Beauty Queens pratically bribed Cha Cha Cha to yield Mixed Tag, who was already "Marked for Elimination" which means the team must finish first or suffer a 30-minute penalty. However Karma Electra came and bit Cha Cha Cha in the butt because they got horribly lost during the Detour, and ended up finishing last, which earned them the MFE, because last week was only gonna be an Elimination Leg if Mixed Tag ended up in last....... *shrug*

O/D really got lost if they were 2 hours behind E/D's pit stop arrival time. And they made it look like they were just minutes behind!

Myrna: How do you say airport
Cab Driver: Airport
Myrnar: Airport, it is important to get the accent right.

We were sooo hoping that their cabby had an impecable English accent to answer her and put her in her place. (Assuming she'd even realize her mistake.)

They really believe it is all in the accent!

Have they never heard of languages?

"RE: Hyperventilating"

It's just the accents they use are never close to the country they are in.

Departure Times:

Beauty Queens: 2:15am
Schmirna: 2:50am
Mixed Tag: 3:06am
Cha Cha Cha: 4:37am (WOW, either they got additional penalties or the editors really messed with us last week.)

Teams will fly to the island of Guam, and get a military escort due to security reasons to the Aircraft Terminal where they'll receive their nexe clue......

BQ's got on the first ferry at 3:00am ferry. Additional ferries leave on the hour

Schmirna and Mixed Tag got the 4:00am ferry.

Cha Cha got the 6:00am ferry.

The first three teams are on the same flight. D&K mocked Eric's manboobs being displayed in his white shirt.

Danny & Oswals did not make the flight. They can get on the next flight to Tokyo but have a tight connection to get on the same Tokyo-Guam flight.

"RE: TAR-Stars Episode #12 East Coast Spoiler/Update Thread "
Posted by vince3 on 04-29-07 at 08:01 PM
The first three teams made the 9:05am flight toward Tokyo and layover into Guam.

Cha Cha got a later flight to Tokyo get onto the same flight toward Guam. Very tight connection, but no other choice..... (45 minutes)

First three teams safely are on the flight to Guam, Cha Cha is running to the terminal for the second flight in a row........ (doesn't look good.....)

They made it, but the breeze coming from the others is "freezing cold". Maybe they're in AK, instead of Japan.

...but they made it. BQa in the lead climbing the tower, with E&D 2nd and C&M third, but D&O overtake C&M on the stairs.

Detour: Care package: fill box with 500 lb of supplies and drop on neighboring island. Takes 30 minutes for flight. Engine care: Wash the engine and flap. C&M opt for care package; others opt for engine care.

Besides, that was clearly BS, they picked 'care package' because they figured Charla couldn't scrup a plane.

they're complete jerks. BOTH of them.

What on earth made any of them think that cleaning a plane to military standards would be fast?

THAT was pretty unbelievable.

(I'm watching by dvr, read your comment & thought they said it to their driver -- NOT the dudes on the plane. Dorks.)

"RE: TAR-Stars Episode #12 East Coast Spoiler/Update Thread "
Posted by mysticwolf on 04-29-07 at 08:14 PM
Must say, I'd rather have done the drop. But, I'd probably have chosen the wash as taking less time.

However, if I'd done the drop? I don't think I would have thrown the heavy stuff on top of the crushable light stuff like C/M did. And, I think it's hilarious that Charla is the one that carried the heavy stuff while Mirna carried cake mixes, etc.

"RE: TAR-Stars Episode #12 East Coast Spoiler/Update Thread "
Posted by AyaK on 04-29-07 at 08:17 PM
But the boxes were just for show. Like Mirna's protestations about how much she likes Charla.
"RE: TAR-Stars Episode #12 East Coast Spoiler/Update Thread "
Posted by mysticwolf on 04-29-07 at 08:24 PM
True. But someone donated that stuff & expected it to do some good. They'll have to unpack it & pitch all the stuff they turned into crap, crushing it, before they can send on what's still useable. So much for really wanting to help.
"RE: TAR-Stars Episode #12 East Coast Spoiler/Update Thread "

Now we're heading to the US Naval Base......

Schmirna ended up leaving the base last due to the long time for the plane to land.....

Roadblock: Who's ready to travel far and wide? One of the BQ's reponded "ME!" way too quickly.

Dustin (the winner) & Kandace are off to the Pit Stop, the old Spanish fort Fort Soledad. Everyone else is still searching. Charla keeps touching the screen, even though the instructor tells her not to. D&K are team #1 to arrive and win an ATV each.

Posted by Bebo on 04-29-07 at 08:31 PM
She did a terrific job. Danielle and Charla are wandering around like, well, like idiots.

That poor guy supervising Charla: Ma'am, please don't touch the screen.

Prolly just her turn -- these 2 are pretty good about alternating.

And see, Eric (idiot) has done all of his roadblocks.

But HOW COOL was that roadblock!

"RE: TAR-Stars Episode #12 East Coast Spoiler/Update Thread "
Posted by MsShel330 on 04-29-07 at 08:28 PM
I was wondering why Mirna told Charla not to touch the buttons. She knew that she would.

I'm not the best judge of time, because I thought that the cleaning task would take longer than it did.

If D&O are going home, it's because they don't know to look in the bushes, where a pilot behind enemy lines would be hiding. And I don't know WHAT Danielle is looking for. God?

She is really slow, mentally and physically. What is so hard about not touching the screen or buttons. I was thinking that her short fingers were part of the problem but I don't think so.

Danielle needs to calm down and what aren't these people getting about the pilot being hidden? Hidden means not in plain site.

1) Damn it, I am Canadian - that really was cool! Why, oh why can't I race too.

2) And how come no-one else can see the pilots? If you can see them on a TV screen - then they are not that hidden that a person looking careful should have problems seeing them.

The plane drop may have been the "slower" detour, but I still think it was the faster choice for C&M. They've never completed a physical task quickly, and I think this was another one that Charla would have been little help on.
