* NiceHat: Wil's knit cap.

* NiceHat: His cowboy hat.

* NiceHat: Both had knit caps with their first initials embroidered on them.

* BaldOfAwesome: Both did well early on.

* NotSoDifferent: At first it was easy to sympathize with Tara the way Wil was constantly yelling at her and berating her, but later Tara started yelling and berating him the same way, even when he was trying to be nice. This was even discussed in-show, as Blake & Page decided Tara was no better than Wil.

* OdangoHair: Paige often wore her hair in buns.

* {{Cuckold}}: Wil. Though Alex is never shown to sleep with Tara, the intention is there on both their parts.

* TheSouthPaw: Gary mentioned he was a lefty at the golfing detour.

* BadassGay: They won the most legs with 3. [[note]] This excludes Tara & Wil's first place tie at leg 12 because of it being a result of a production defect[[/note]]

* ParanoiaFuel: [[{{In-Universe}} Caused this due to their isolation from the other teams]] (to avoid the constant drama), as the others thought their constantly being calm under pressure, and how they mysteriously showed up at the last minute at some locations was done deliberately to mess with their heads.

* ParanoiaFuel: [[{{In-Universe}} They received this in South Africa]] when locals warned them against going to their next destination, threatening that they would be killed. The rumor turned out to be totally false.

* SurpriseDifficulty: [[{{In-Universe}} Discussed]] by Peach at the beginning of the second leg.

* GenreSavvy: They figured out leg 6 was a non-elimination leg due to the clue not saying anything about the last team to arrive being eliminated.

* {{Expy}}: Phil's description of them is the same as Nancy & Emily. Subverted in that they got eliminated in the first leg.

* TheMillstone: Tara became this due to her waning loyalty to Wil, constantly feeding Alex information and giving a very demoralizing rant to Wil in the final leg. It's also widely speculated that Tara actually ''threw'' the final footrace.
* MinorInjuryOverreaction: This was one of the complaints that Tara had about Wil, as he tended to blow up everything to epic proportions.

* TheMasochismTango: While both Paul & Amie and Lenny & Karen fought in [[Characters/TheAmazingRace1 Season 1]], those were both generally one sided arguments mostly caused by the men not wanting to be there. Frank & Margarita had their splats as well, but they didn't let their fighting affect their performance that much. Tara & Wil were the first true fighting "couple," who managed to excel at the race despite constantly being at each other's throats.

* VitriolicBestBuds: In their introduction, They admitted while they fight a lot, they do still care for each other.

* NoAccountingForTaste

Homosexual Cuban-American best friends. They were easily the most popular team of the season due to their amicable interactions with the local cultures and their CampGay nature. Though their tendency to calmly and patiently deal with all obstacles often got them an advantage over the other teams, their lack of a sense of urgency would ultimately cost them in their final leg, as they fell behind and finished 4th. However, that same attitude made them the face of the season and earned them a spot in All-Stars.

* BrotherSisterTeam
