The guy doing the CBS Entertainment Stimulus package promo looks a lot like Tom Brokaw, but he does not sound like Tom Brokaw.

Tammy about ready to take Victor's head and slam it through a wall.
That would be really awesome.  
I'd pay to watch that.

Meanwhile, it's a raucous caucus at Gypsy Town!

It's 6:30 am, and the Bucharest train station is EQUALIZED between the top 8 teams.
All of 'em are on the road.
Together.
No sign of Brad/Vic, whose plane doesn't leave for another couple of hours from AMS.

Jaime/Cara conf about communication with Luke. They're all lovey-dovey apparently.
Brad: We have to get off the plane and race hard.
Victoria conf: If one team is as screwed up as us I'll be really happy!
Their flight leaves as the others arrive in Brasov.
Teams get taxis. Tammy/Vic somehow got back in the lead.  
Amanda/Kris seem to be in 2nd with a much better driver. They take the lead.

What a wonderful church! Wow.
I'm impressed (and it takes a lot to impress me)
DETOUR: Gypsy moves, or Vampire remains?
Gypsy moves: Make way to gypsy settlement, load family belongings onto a cart and navigate it to a new camp, unload it for the next clue.
Vampire: Drag a coffin to a clearing, unlock chains, reveal antiques inside. In the spirit of Vlad the impaler, impale the frames on a stake to reveal a hidden flag for the next clue.

Brad/Vic land in Bucharest.
Brad: Everything has to fall into place for us.

In taxis, Teams get confused as they try to find the places they have to go for their chosen DETOUR option.
Love the gypsy music!
Hopefully I'm not the only person here whose parents used to make them behave by threatening to give them to the gypsies. (Like I knew what gypsies were?!)
Mel/Mike load family belongings.
So do Amanda/Kris.
Eww .. Who is that hag dancing!?  
Jaime/Cara have a bad cabbie. He's driving like, on the sidewalk or summat.
Other teams have already loaded belongings on to horse drawn carts.
Stuff falls off Mel/Mike's cart as they follow behind picking stuff up.

Tammy/Vic reach the castle, having chosen the Vampire graveyard thingy.
So have Christie/Jodi, who arrive along with them.
They trundle down a semi-marked path in the woods.
Vic shlepps uphill, huffing and puffing.
The SIGN (yes the Sign!) in the woods says one way to coffins, one way to impaling.
Did they go the right way?  
Jaime/Cara have a language barrier with their cabbie.
Kris/Amanda unload gypsy stuff. Mel/Mike close behind.
Tammy/Vic rumbling through the forest are lost.
Christie/Jodi have a coffin.
Jaime/Cara arrive at the graveyard.
Tammy/Vic find another marker.

CLUE, Kris/Amanda: Travel by taxi to the Vila Panoramic.
Phil: This inn, overlooking the castle from Dracula, is the pitstop. Last team to check in may be eliminated.

Victor is going to be the death of his team yet. Stubborn and he's not listening to Tammy.

Margie/Luke have a coffin.
Jaime/Cara seem to have one.
Margie fumbles with keys trying to unlock the lock/chains.
The keys don't fit all the locks. Hit/miss.
Tammy/Victor still very lost.
Vic: We're NOT going back down!

Victoria finishes her gymnastics routine. Brad/Vic head for Brasov.

Kisha/Jen do gypsy move.
Amanda/Kris get back in their taxi.
But they are missing their fanny packs!
Mel/Mike not far behind.
Kris: It had everything! Our passports! Money! This is terrible!

Christie/Jodi do impaling.
Tammy/Victor are following red and white markers which apparently lead into the woods and nowhere else.
Tammy: It's frustrating.
Vic: I know.
Tammy: Frustrating that we follow YOUR gut instead of mine!

Kris finds the fanny packs. Somebody had them. Meh.
They're in 2nd now, behind Mel/Mike.
K/A run, M/M walk up the hill toward the Amazing Bathmat.

Flautist plays a pan flute. Welcome to Rumania!
Phil: Mel/Mike, you're team #1. You've won a trip for 2 to Costa Rica.
Mel does a confessional about how special Mike is. And not just because he's Mike's father!

Phil: Kris/Amanda, you're team #2.
