My thoughts as well.

Still, I wouldn't put it past the producers to intentionally mislead us so that we had no clue the Speedbump was coming!

I :eek: when gramps and the boy got their tattoos. It was one thing a few seasons ago when whatsherface had to shave her head in order to complete the fast forward. Hair grows back. Tattoos don't go away.

But hey...they're in first, for now!

Is there anywhere I can watch last night's episode online? I tried CBS.com and iTunes but maybe I am overlooking it. Our power was out last night. :(

I'd rather get a tattoo for something like TAR than shave my head like joyce did a couple years ago. I don't know if I could've done that.

I'd much rather shave my head. Hair can grow back a lot easier than it would be to get a tattoo removed. I'm curious as to how a Jewish racer would react to this particular FF for more than one reason.

I heard that as well, but I never heard it from an official source. I know, though, that some people thought they remembered Phil saying at the beginning of the first episode that there would be two non-elimination legs. I don't remember, and I don't have the recording of that episode anymore.

Did the tattoo have to be on the arm? Cause I would simply have had it on my rear end if that were an option - only my husband would ever see it!:eek:
And thank goodness they had a non-elimination leg. I'd hate to lose the goth bunnies - they've really grown on me. They are so darn perky! (I realize that "perky" is not usually associated with goths, but they make it work).

Unfortunately, no. I've done that search in vain as well. Cbs.com has Survivor online but not TAR, have no idea why.

There you are! Thank goodness, I was gettin' tired carrying this team solo... ;)

I don't remember Phil saying anything about nonelimination legs, to be honest. I just remember reading it (here or somewhere else).

Why oh why did the Goths have to U turn the wrong team???? They knew who was behind them for sure, you would think they would have made sure to give themselves a bit of an advantage to make up for their speed bump.

DaffyKD

^^^I was JUST about to post about that! I was soooo irritated when Nate and Jen got to the pit stop first, but it was completely the Goths fault for not u-turning them. They sat right next to them threading flowers for however long, knew they were RIGHT behind them, but they u-turn the grandfather/son???? Who were in, what, 2nd place at that time? And now we get to continue to enjoy Nate & Jenny. Kind of a weird group of teams left in the top 4!

The only team the Goths had seen during the detour was Nate/Jen, and N/J finished the detour before them, so they figured N/J were in front of them when it was time for the U-Turn. But considering they had to complete the speedbump, if they had really thought about it they would have concluded the other two teams they didn't see were probably in front of them, not behind them.

Too bad...I thought the goths were pretty good racers. Nate and Jen, on the other hand, have driven me nuts the whole race. I can't stand the whiny women on TAR every season.

My favorite racers ever are still Kris and Jon from several seasons back (maybe season 4 or 5?).

Drat! Tivo only got the first fourteen minutes thanks to football - so I take it the goths are gone?

Ugh, and I forgot it was Sunday (4 day weekend has me all messed up) so I didn't watch :(. I really wish CBS would let us watch this show on the web!

I wish the Goths would have u-turned Nate and Jen. I wanted them gone since the first episode. They will probably be around one more week (since next week will probably be a non-elemination round before they go into the final three).

I will miss the Goths. :(

^What's sad is that even with that mistake, there were still incidences where the Goths *may* have wound up in front of them (depending on editing, of course):

* Jen forgetting to get the receipts until the second person gave her a hint ("Aren't you forgetting something?")

* The directions N&J got that the pit stop was only 2-5 minutes away and so they started running - I was hoping they'd continue running for about 3 hours! :p

Just goes to show - you want to U-turn a team you *know* may be behind you (even if Nate & Jen had gotten to the mat before the Goths, they were the only ones the Goths had even seen since the completed the Speed Bump)

I'm rooting for Ron & Christina, so they'll probably get eliminated next :rolleyes:
