I think it was fine for Jillian and Emmit to change their minds about going for the Express Pass. If they didn't do it and still expected Steph and Kristen to give them the second pass, that would be a bit ridiculous, IMO. If the teams agreed to both try and the winner give the other team the second pass and then the winners gave it to someone else instead, that would still be allowed but would be kind of jerk-like behaviour, IMO.
If four teams went for the Express Pass, the three "losers" would be out of luck. It's almost better in that situation though, because then the three losing teams would be competing against each other at the back of the pack. If only two teams went for it (without the deal) then the losing team would really be in trouble, because they would have put themselves at a big disadvantage, with nothing to show for it.
It was cool to see them in Calgary, getting clues at places I have stood, but I'm glad they're leaving the country next week.
