Why lose valuable time just to get praise when you have a perfectly capable partner in the boat? We've seen her climb before. And it was very impressive. Now be smart and win the game.
I tend to lean on the part that Sarah must've realized that so far Peter's done all the Roadblocks, so she has to start doing some soon so they can be better balanced for the Roadblocks later in the race.

There had to come a time when she did one of the roadblocks and she did manage to climb up a wall faster than some of the other competitors. This seemed like a good time for Sarah to do one.

Why does Sarah always act like she can't do something -- "Peter, I can't". Then she does it. All the while berating Peter whenever he is discouraged.

This team has never been my favorite; but from what I saw, I think that Sarah is a one-person team.

Peter is just a load of hot air, able to yell at Sarah ,yeah, YOU do it; while he sits back on his butt. He should have climbed the freaking rocks. Sarah did the Great Wall. Then he whined and complained about a bit of work at the pearl cage finding. I'm glad she's seeing another side and that the rose colored glasses are coming off during this trip.

Sarah did volunteer for the RB but he could have jumped in and said 'No, I'll do it' rather than sit back and criticize. She's shot up in my favor and unless she goes back down to his level will probably continue to do so. Peter can take a hike. I'd love to see Sarah go the distance but because of her partner they can go next for all I care.

The difference between this couple and other bickering couples is that when he yells at her, it's like she's a stranger to him, as though she's hired help. Other couples bicker and yell, but there is still some form of humanity in it all....

I couldnt agree more! I think some of the questionable things Sarah was doing early on where prompted by her trying to please Peter. Now I think she's seeing him for who he really is and is pulling back a little which is definitely making her more likable to me. They are starting to make me feel like the couple who won a few years back (cant remember their names) but the girl was so completely annoying and her friend (Zak maybe?) was so patient and I remember feeling like I wanted them to win only because he deserved it so much for having to put up with her!

I also don't really understand why Sarah always keeps telling that she can't do it (at the Great Wall and at the cliff in Vietnam).. I mean, she did competition, and a tough one i assume. I thought she would be more "used" to physical tasks. But in the end, when she can do it, i'm all with her.

And the difference between Peter and Sarah is that Sarah never told off Peter (as far as I remember) but Peter is always complaining and sometimes putting the blame on Sarah.
And I felt for Sarah when she tried to reconcile with Peter, telling him that he rocked, he did well, and he just ignored her. Sarah is seeing through him. I'm sure there are likeable things about Peter, but he doesn't treat her as she deserves.

Sarah is fortunate that she is getting to see this ugly side of Peter before she got too "far along" in her relationship with him. Unfortnately, she has to find out on national tv while competing for a million dollar prize. He's a grade A jerk.
