Frater-night?!
It seems like every episode ends with Phil saying, “You’re still racing!”
I’m getting tired of the Fitbit stuff, and I have a Fitbit.
Eagle-lite!
If you already know the motto of the French Republic, can you skip the plane flight and got straight for the clue-giver?
I asked in the first episode whether Green Girl shares Green Guy’s enthusiasm for the race. I got my answer in this episode.
Maybe Green Guy has sucked all the enthusiasm from the male Bickerazzo. The latter is such a negative nancy.
All of their HS history teachers must have been cringing as they watched last night (really? none of them knew?) even if Logan hadn’t actually seen the 3rd word, she should have just known what it was anyway.
Also, I now get why everyone hates the green guy. Based on last night’s leg, she should rethink that engagement.
That’s not something that I would have known. I don’t think I ever heard that in any history class.
I must say that these tasks were much more interesting, finally. The rap seemed to be easy, if one could pronounce the words.
That’s what I was wondering. And as much as I would love, Love, LOVE to do aerobatics in a Stearman it might be worth skipping the flight to save time on the Race.
Where did the clue say they were going next; I think it was Rotterdam by train. Not sure how often that train would run, or which station they’d depart from. And does anyone know if those tickets will be on the CBS credit card or do they come out of the Race money? I wonder if they’ll all be on one of the high-speed lines.
Which one do you want to do?
- I definitely don’t want to do the rap one
Well I want to do rap, so we’re rapping
- !?!?
James Earl’s mom has the entire rap entourage on her side now, doesn’t she? Dang, if looks could kill.
I wonder if these take the place of the non-elimination legs, which I suppose on balance is better. My dad says he thinks its so they don’t need to give out a prize.
I’m glad we finally got a challenge where someone could manage to screw it up and be there for hours on end.
And yeah, those mispronounciations were killing me. Especially since everyone said “liberte” correctly. “Liberty, eagle-lite, fraternight!” :smack:
Who is this White Phantom character? Was he just a guy hired by the show or is he some famous street performer? It sounded like we were supposed to know who he was (and I, like many of you, knew Liberte, Egalite, Fraternite, before they even put on their jumpsuits.)
Granted that he’s dressed all in white and his standing all by himself in the middle of the steps, but I probably would have missed him too.
Hated the “You’re still racing” ending but I loved seeing Paris because I have been there before years ago, including many of the spots they visited.
It was funny seeing people rap with Notre Dame in the background for some reason.
It surprised me that they acted as if it were so unfamiliar. Even if they had forgotten it, wouldn’t seeing the first word have jogged a memory? Couldn’t the one woman have just pretended she saw it and said it instead of waiting and acting as if it were some strange word she couldn’t guess? I agree with other posters, if I could have just said the words, could I have skipped it?
Now that I’m so smug about that, I will find that in the next episode there will be something that’s common knowledge that I don’t know, and I will have to eat crow.
Dickish, true, but effective; they knocked out the task pretty quick and won the leg.
Didn’t the intro suggest those were successful, and potentially well known rappers? I’m surprised they didn’t draw more of a crowd of onlookers.
I wonder which of the Detour tasks I’d have done. I’m not big on performing in public; I know I could do the pronunciation and the rhythm, not sure I could bring the requisite attitude.
I wonder if they’d let me use my rap name.
We just watched the episode this afternoon; I felt physical pain every time I heard someone say that.
