They can't sabotage, but they can share info, let others cut in line, etc. I agree that a team shouldn't be afraid to use the u-turn if necessary, but a team in first place using it, and doing it out of spite, like this team did, makes no sense.

Maybe I missed something but it seemed that Joe/Heidi gave up pretty easily on that morse code. They only turned in the answer once, got it wrong, and then just went and sat in the trench until Phil got them. Could be some editing but its probably at least partially true. Probably suggests that they wouldn't make it far anyway with an attitude like that.

They gave about 3 or 4 answers to the soldier.

That brunette lesbian has been freaking me out, she's weird looking and she reminded me of someone. It finally clicked last night, she looks like a sleestack.

That U Turn just about was guranteed to take out wheoever got assigned it. If I was in the cops position though I would have used that U Turn to go after tougher competition like the cowboys,the lesbians or the father/daughter ahead of the fat guy with the injured leg.

That was either poor planning by The Producers or very crafty planning to save Jeff/Jordan for 1 more episode at least.

Yeah, that really surprised me the first time I ran into it a few years ago. I remember landing in Rome coming from Amsterdam and looking for customs, until finally a guy in uniform pointed to a doorway - I thought towards customs but it was actually out to the cab stands and off you go. Then later driving into Switzerland and France and seeing the crossings, but just cruising on through. It's strange when compared to how much harder it is to go in and out of Canada from the US.
