Doesn't Rovilson have Filipino parents, only that he grew up in the US?

Regardless bro. He's still American citizen. So that makes him half-Filipino but does he speak our language? 

I really have trouble with these so-called half-breeds who come to the country (because they couldn't land a job in the US) and try not to learn the dialect like Troy Montero. They should learn from pure American Mormon evangelists who roam the provinces of late. Oh my! They speak better Tagalog that I do..Another excellent example is Michelle Van Eimeren who speaks perfect Tagalog and cooks kiss-ass adobo and kare-kare.

Anyways, since they carry the flag, I hope they win the competition.

After Paula and Natasha convinced the cab driver to take them to the pit stop, Henry saw them getting a ride and was aghast after that same cabbie refused them.

Henry:  "Oh crap...they must have charmed him, like showing him their t*ts or something."

 ;D ;D ;D

Yeah, I was surprised by Henry's reaction especially since he can always ask his wife to show her own boobs to the drivers, haha! ;D

I highly doubt it that it would get the same reaction from the driver if Terri did it.  ;D

Its good Marc and Rovilson finished 2nd this time.  Overconfidence is a bad thing.   Allan Wu surely shows his joy not seeing the "RP" team finish first.   He was terribly glad to see the Singapore boys take first place.   Marc and Rovilson's antics surely annoys the host.    ;D ;D

Not really annoyed as much as threatened. :) If you'll notice, his hosting skills vastly improved over the course of this season alone. He knows that if he doesn't shape up, he'll most likely see himself replaced with a more gregarious and interesting host.

The nice thing about about these two is their demeanor. Even when they were running 4th in the race, they never lost their composure. In contrast, for example, to the 2 sisters who invariably get rattled in tense situations and end up shouting at each other or breaking down.

I have a horrible temper and I would probably be going nuts about bad breaks in the race  to the detriment of my team. Hahaha!

Saw Rovilson and Vanessa (she's the older sister right?) together at Powerplant this afternoon. She's quite pretty.

They weren't really being sweet to each other so just by looking I wouldn't think that they were but the fact that she's here with him, I suppose that they are. :)

Yes, they are--if you watch the Sony Handycam TV commercial with Vanessa, Rovilson is also there (he's uncredited though), and they look like a couple watching TV in some scenes.

I just thought it was rather stupid to have a leg with no bunching to come after a non-elimination leg that carried a 30 minute penalty. Where were Paula and Natasha supposed to make up that time? They should have just eliminated them in the previous leg then. What was the point really?

It's because Allan Wu is Singaporean... 2 more episodes to go... hope Marc & Rovilson win...  ;D

If what I've been told is true, M&R fans have reason to be happy next week.

Really? I, on the other hand, thought they were at their most irritating in yesterday's episode what with all of their comments to the other contestants.

hmmm.. ???..maybe its because i dont actually watch them with full attention, i just turn up the tv out loud and just do something else (like check my emails and stuff) :)  i mostly wanted to check who wins and who gets eliminated  ;D

you have got to admit though, this season the producers made an effort to make it a bit exciting - the places they went to and not necessarily the tasks - because the tasks are still....blah! but at least, they get to visit non-asian countries......

anybody auditioning for season 3?  ;)

LOL, you'll likely to really miss it then, their disparaging comments where not really emphasized.

I'm curious too if anyone here would audition.

as TAR finale episodes go, this was really exciting. Unfortunately, it was also quite frustrating.
