I wanted to add something to the AR topic above but thought maybe no one would go back to it.

When the task is a Roadblock (I think I'm correct in that term) doesn't it mean only one of them can do the task? When Cheyne and Megan (is that their names) were at the bell tower, she was doing the task but he went along with her and helped to count. Was that allowed? With all the other couples, the other person stayed behind and waited. I was waiting for Phil to give them a 30 minute penalty. Maybe I am wrong about this.

I was a few episodes behind and caught up today - she actually counted with Sam or Dan, not Cheyne. THey were the first 2 up so worked together to count them quickly.

I wondered the same thing. I hadn't considered that only one of them counted, but it didn't seem right.

    You're right about only one person being allowed to do the task, but I don't think Cheyne helped Meghan count... I don't have a tape or anything to check, plus I was distracted during part of the episode. I do remember some of the teams working together. Was Meghan working with Dan or Sam (whichever of them did the roadblock)? Working with another team is allowed. I think that must have been what happened.

    Speaking of that roadblock, I wouldn't have wanted to do it. Imagine missing just one bell and having to recount. Plus, with the bells ringing, it might have been pretty loud in there. Tough on the ears!

  • You are right. Meghan worked with either Dan or Sam.
  • lisa3, that might be what happened. It seemed a little (or a lot) confusing. Thanks for answering. ~visiting
