Mom & Dad also read the sign, which truly saved them.
Loved the Asian girl (Christine?) and her reaction to being asked to rappell into the cave. Not all that many people would be enthusiastic about it.
That was one hell of a long leg -- overnight to an all-day flight, then an overnight train ride. Then some high-intensity tasks, then The Fine Print just as the teams are at a fever pitch.
My hat is off to the producer in charge of Fiendish Tasks.

This!

Yeah I had forgotten that they had, also the Son/Dad team (I'm not a big fan of theirs for personal reasons - they sorta like the limelight at the peril of their kids)
Um,
Afro Blue has the real stuff. Damn damn. I really liked both performances, but their first was just amazing.
The Sinatra number -- with the hats! and the suits! and the cute boys! -- really made me swoony.
And the guy singing to Sara was awesome in a watch-from-the-hall way.
Amy, I was okay with the group until that point. It made me really uncomfortable.
Since she seemed to be okay with it, I was, too. But it was still very, "Oh my GOD what he is doing?!"
Haven't watched The Sing Off yet but soon. And with the promise of more good Afro Blue? Hells, yeah. I am living for them on this show.
TAR: Read the clue. Dumbass. ETA: In this scenario, big sign on the table where you are doing the task = probably connected to the task and therefore meant to be read, not that the gimme all your money directions where in the actual clue.
I like the snowboarders quite a bit. Mom and Dad seem nice enough but I think they'll be gone soon. The brother and sister Bickerson's have got to go right now. Everyone else is kind of a blur still. ETAlsoA: The long term gay couple are no Guidos. I'm just saying.
I don't know what I missed with that Sinatra number last night, but I thought that they wrecked a gorgeous song. I really hated that arrangement, and when the judges were plotzing over it, I was flabbergasted.
Delilah was really lucky that Kinship 9 screwed up last week, because I think that previous performance was the only thing that saved them last night. They completely missed on "Heat Wave," but their first song was really good.
And I cannot stand it when young singers start spouting off about not knowing any old songs. You've got the entirety of recorded song available online--if you've failed to listen to songs from previous decades, that's your fault and something you should have fixed years ago if you're planning on being a professional singer.
not to mention that most of the songs performed last night (from the '60s) have been sung by several different artists having several different interpretations. Listen to the original on youtube and then some variations and figure it out.

I know!! And yet, I have no idea if I would have read it or not.
