And so we come to the end of another season of TAR. Let's hope it's set
up right and teams have a chance to overtake another. As with every
other season it seems, it will probably come down to whom ever has the
better cabbie.
All teams are on the same flight to Chicago and are being pampered in
Premium Class. Once they land in ChiTown they must visit Chicagoland
Speedway.
Brooke/Scott are first out of the airport. They make note that the other
teams brought their backpacks with them and that might slow them down.
Arriving at the Speedway, Brooke/Scott open up their clue to find a
Route Marker - Start Your Engines.
One team member must remove the nuts and wheel from a stock car and put
new nuts on in under 40 seconds. Their teammate must then complete a lap
in under 48 seconds using said car.
Brooke is tasked with removing the wheel and nuts and in typical Brooke
fashion starts to lose it right away. Tara/Joey show up in second
followed by Logan/London.
With a calm Scott behind the wheel advising her, Brooke finishes the
task on her 4th try. Joey does it on his first try.
It takes Scott a couple of tries but he finishes the lap in under 48
seconds first. He and Brooke must now go to the Monroe Street Station in
downtown Chicago. One of the few-below ground stops on the elevated
train network, they must find someone with their next clue there.
Tara and Logan both complete their laps under 48 seconds.
After finding the person with their next clue at the subway station,
Brooke/Scott must solve 3 riddles and identify 3 local landmarks -
Chicago Water Tower, Buckingham Fountain, Wabash Avenue Bridge - picking
up postcards from people at those landmarks and putting them together to
find their next destination.
Tara/Joey arrive just as they are reading their clue. All teams take
different routes to the 3 landmarks. Brooke/Scott run to the water tower
and Tara/Joey hit the fountain. Logan/London pick up their landmarks
clue and are off to the bridge first.
Brooke/Scott get all their postcards and off to the City Hall garden
which is located on the roof where they will receive their next clue
from a beekeeper.
London/Logan are in 2nd after getting all their postcards.
Brooke starts to freak out. Tara/Joey cannot find the water tower and
are in third.
At the garden on the City Hall's roof, Brooke/Scott are told to go to
the restaurant Wrigleyville Dogs. Once there they find out they must
deliver 10 hot dogs to fans sitting on a nearby apartment rooftop. When
they complete this they will receive their next clue.
Tara/Joey get their clue from the beekeeper before London/Logan.
Brooke/Scott complete the hot dog task and they are told to go to the
front of Wrigley Field.
Tara/Joey start delivering hot dogs.
The final challenge of this leg is a memory task involving the manual
scoreboard of the baseball stadium. One team member must communicate the
position their team finished in on a certain leg of the race and the
other team member must place that number on the scoreboard.
London/Logan arrive at Wrigleyville.
Tara/Joey deliver the hot dogs and Brooke spots them with binoculars.
Brooke's memory of where they finished is good and they meet at home
plate where an umpire gives them their next clue.
They must solve a mathematical equation using where they finished on
certain legs. For Brooke/Scott they had to subtract their placement in
Ninh Binh from that in Dar es Salaam, Panama City minus Venice and
Athens plus Seoul. The number they got was 504 and in that section of
Wrigley Field will be their final clue.
Brooke/Scott find their last clue and are off to Milton Lee Olive Park,
the last pit stop and a chance to win 1 million dollars.
Tara/Joey finish their scoreboard task and so do London/Logan.
Never giving up the lead they started with out of the airport
Brooke/Scott arrive at the pit stop in first place and win 1 million
dollars.
Tara/Joey are second and London/Logan show up to close the show out.
Shades of season 3? Brooke who broke down several times during the
season came through when it was needed. Flo redux!
Season 30 is a go and TAR will once again return. Most likely in the
spring of 2018 but if a show fails early it might show when needed. Just
like Flo...er, Brooke.
