Watch it again. It was actually exactly the opposite. I saw him standing there before some others, they raced up and they were handed 'his' clue. He reached for it because he thought he was first, and then relenquished it rather than fight it out with the ungracious antagonist. PETER is the one who took the high road to the OTHER teams, not the other way around.

I didn't like this couple in the beginning and I still haven't warmed up to them yet. They're competing well. You can't argue with that.

I have to say I'd rather see a couple other couples win rather than them. They aren't very nice to any of the other teams, didn't show any respect for the soldiers in Vietnam. I think they are one team that are not learning or absorbing much about any country they visit. They don't seem to stop and look around and appreciate the locations, scenery, people, anything.

They're both so doggedly determined to win, they're missing the entire journey.

I agree. They seem to be more about competing than enjoying the experience.

In this episode, I liked how Peter distributed the flowers with a big smile. That was nice to see!

And did you see how Sarah struggle with her leg? =/ Yet, she doesn't complain or asked Peter to help her. So I think that when they used the prosthesis to get an advantage, they have to cope with her leg that is not functioning well. I think the problem is that it can't bend at the knee joint, which is very hard. Sarah will have to litterally jump in the end or even pull it. So as for me, I think she can legitimately take any advantage she can get from her leg, because she has to cope with a bigger disadvantage.

In the end, it bugged me too that Peter didn't wait for Sarah or helped her. Though I think it's possible that Sarah didn't ask for help or just refused his help. We won't know unless we can see the whole thing. But the gap between them was quite big and if I'm not mistaken, Peter didn't slow down, look behind him or wait for Sarah. But yet, that's maybe because of the editing =)

However, i'm happy they are still in the race! Cheers for Sarah!

Ah, but I still think he is gross.

Thank you. I was afraid I'd lost my mind, after reading what I knew I didn't see.

Peter isn't the warmest person I've ever seen, but he and Sarah seem to have things worked out between them, so I guess that's all that's necessary. Sarah's crying doesn't bother me because I think that's just her way of handling stress. None of these people are getting on my nerves like some have in the past.

I admire Sarah for her determination but the toll of running on one leg will catch up to her eventually. I just hope she doesn't put to much stress on the other one as she is likely to that one.

It's now officially Team Sarah as Peter seems about as interested in participating having a root canal.

And how many times is he going to move on by himself without considering her? (i.e. getting out of the small boat into the big one without her.)
