Phil: This is Mumbai, India, one of the largest, densely populated cities in the world. This fortress was the 8th pitstop in a Race around the world.

Will TK/Rachel's calm under pressure keep them at the front?
Will senior citizen Don continue to keep pace w/younger racers?

TK/Rachel, 1:25 am, CLUE: Fly to Osaka, Japan.
Phil: When they land, taxi to Kishiwara Castle, search the grounds for next clue.

Nic/Don, 1:33 pm.
(TK/R were 1:25 PM, which I will correct shortly.)

TK/R go to a travel agent with internet connection.
Don "wanted to go to Japan" while he was in the service.

Ron/Christina, 1:44 pm, heading to find a taxi.
Ron is already pissed. Looking for a taxi is too stressful for him.
Ron: I'm on a journey of change. I don't want to falter.
Ron's taxi drops him and Chris at a ticket agency.

Nate/Jenn, 2:38 pm.
Jenn: Osaka, Japan, yay! We only have American dollars, though ...  
Nate conf: We haven't finished first yet, and we really want to.  

TK/Rachel seem to be finally getting tickets.
Nic/Don, elsewhere, are getting tickets also.
Man gives TK/Rachel a 6:55 pm departure out of Mumbai.
TK: I think we're doing all right.
Ron/Chris get an 8:something PM flight through Hong Kong.
Nic/Don get 8:something departure, same (apparently) as Ron/Chris.
Ron: Not "Direct," but NON-STOP. Make sure it's NON-STOP.  

TK/R getting ready to board.
Ron/Chris taxi to the airport, but find "no entry."
Ron is pissed that his taxi driver dropped them where there was "no entry."
Ron conf: I'm an old fart who rides on emotion.
Chris: DAD! If you keep complaining ...
Ron: I'm not complaining.
Chris: YES, YOU ARE!!

Nic/Don are at the airport, and see Nate/Jenn.

TK/Rachel run down an airway, apparently looking to depart.
They run onto the tarmac.
Plane takes off.

Phil: TK/Rachel are now traveling via New Delhi and Beijing. The other three teams connect through only one city, Hong Kong.

TK conf: We don't know where the other teams are, so we could be dead last. Just never know.

COMMERCIAL.

TK/Rachel finally get on their final leg of flight.
They're worried where the other 3 teams may be.

Osaka.
At the airport, 2:30 pm, first to arrive: Nate/Jenn. Ron/Chris. Nic/Don.
Don conf: Nic is quite strong. He carries my bag. He's like a bitch for me, it's quite perfect.   
(Surely I must have misheard that line ... )

Teams get into their cabs.
Chris speaks Japanese to the cabbie.
Chris conf, how Nic/Don think they can beat Ron/Chris "but they don't know."

Teams begin to speculate where TK/Rachel may be.
Nic/Don think they're ahead of TK/Rachel, as do Ron/Chris.
Don: Anything's possible on the Race.

First to the castle, Nate/Jenn. CLUE: Travel by taxi to JR Kenjesin Noda Station.
Phil: They'll search for the station's cleaning man, who'll give them the next clue.

Ron/Chris arrive, Nate/Jenn leave before R/C find the cluebox.
Nic, in cab: I wonder if Chris and Ron speak Japanese.
Don: Yeah ... (petty convo ...) Competition gets tougher.
Nic/Don third arriving at the castle.
Ron/Chris beat them to the cluebox, and return to their cab.
Nic/Don, close behind, get their clue.
Don looks exhausted.

Ron and Chris note that their driver is "just relying on the GPS" to get around the confusing streets.
At the station, Nate/Jenn, CLUE: ROADBLOCK.
Who's the back seat driver?
Jenn: Oh, no. I am.
CLUE: BECOME A TAXI DRIVER.   
Phil: They'll find out firsthand what it's like to navigate the congested streets of Osaka. They'll have to put on cabbie uniform, and transport a Japanese couple to an address to receive a clue. The couple may not help them. (Not locals helping, either.) The drivers have to make their way back to their teammate before reading the next clue.
