Episode summary
At the Arc de Triomphe, at departure times the teams are told to find La Grande Rue, a ferris wheel located somewhere in the city. They will have to get the route marker when the Ferris wheel opens. When they get there, they are to do a detour. An "Easy Walk" where they must find Foucault's pendulum. There are two nearby, but you must chose the right one .Unfortunately for Pat and Brenda, they do chose the wrong one which puts them far behind the others. The second is "Tough Climb" in which the teams must climb to the top of Notre Dame and ring Quasimodo's bell. Kevin and Drew decide to go for the Fast Forward, where they have to retrieve it from a local coffee shop. Then they must head directly to the pit stop which is located in Chateau Les Baux. In the Roadblock, one of the team members must travel through the Paris sewers. Pat and Brenda are the last to arrive and are eliminated, going from 1st in Leg #2 to last in Leg #3.
Fun and views reviews
As the number of teams gets smaller they are spending more time with the team dynamics. I recall the first time I saw this episode, I was rooting for some teams and had already formed opinions on which teams I wanted to see eliminated.
The scenery of Paris made a nice backdrop, after the wide open spaces of Africa. The clues in the first season were a lot more cryptic and it cost a team severely, they were eliminated.
Going through the sewers of Paris is not what I would want to do, but for a chance at a million dollars, well OK.
All in all, the show is growing and it is quite unfortunate that it was showed right at the height of the 9-11 incident.
