Amazing Race: not actually couples' therapy.
I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

Yeah... It seems like the pilot has gotten thrown by their general Fail last leg and they're taking it out on each other.
More drivers who don't know stick!?
It appears the non-BB team who did the salami task had significantly less problem with it. Even if I think food tasks are to be avoided at all costs.

I was with some friends on Sunday and made the comment about why teams go on Amazing Race without learning how to drive stick. I forgot that my friend's nephew is involved with the production and actual travel skill is not high on the casting list. Which, yeah they want the drama, but come on!

Punishingly Intricate
But you have some time between being cast and actually doing the show, right? Learning how to drive stick is one thing you could reasonably learn in a shortish amount of time that is a skill you most likely use on the show! (As opposed to, say, trying to learn a foreign language when you don't know where you'll be headed.)
Getting cast on TAR may be the only thing that could motivate me to learn shift...don't tell my husband. (He wants me to learn so I could move his car if necessary.)

Yeah, like people who live in New York and go on Project Runway and don't bother to check out Mood.

Or people who go on Top Chef without a single dessert recipe memorized.

Or people who go on the Colbert Report without being aware that it's a satire show.

Because books.

You'd think they'd shop there already, you know?
