mswood, one thing we know with certainty is that there were no other relevant flights to catch from Vilnius that were possible until much later in the day. If the flights Vilnius to Prague and Vilnius to Warsaw were already gone, then the next relevant flight from Vilnius essentially did not exist; Azaria and Hendekea could only react immediately to get put on flight TE460 Vilnius to Amsterdam departing 0730, connecting from there to Frankfurt, and then having to wait a long time for the final flight OU419 departing FRA 1430 arriving DBV 1615. They had to get to Frankfurt any way possible because their only hope was OU419. All earlier flights into Dubrovnik through Zagreb were already foreclosed to them because of the timing of connections.

I was pretty sure about that apskip.

And in some clip I do believe that its sad that Jenn & Nate made it by 10 minutes, so I think its quite possible that they never had the option of (4) coach seats on that flight, and thus would be scrambling for a later flight anyway.

They screwed up by wasting so much time at the airport, and not being practical.

They then lucked out into getting so close to being back in the race, to waste it by not paying attention to the anchor line.

So I don't think they can really blame the ticket agent.

Michael, you have obviously missed the point so now you are going to have to suffer through one of my diatribes. Winning football teams have all sorts of bad things(injuries, penalties, fumbles, interceptions) happen to them, but they find a way to win. The key is that they seldom in the red zone let it get to fourth down so they have to kick the field goal. They get first downs or score touchdowns on first, second or third downs in the red zone and avoid that issue.

Now, Azaria and Hendekea did get a terriblly bad break with the ticketing fiasco. However, when they reached the rowboat in Dubrovnik harbor they still had a good chance of winning 5th place and survival. They failed to do that because Azaria did not notice something fundamental with respect to boats, an anchor. Is that his fault? You bet, and it cost him the race. His baloney excuses in "Two Little Words" indicated his refusal to accept responsibility for his own failure. He found it much more convenient to try to deflect it onto someone else, who admittedly screwed up but did not eliminate his team. Azaria eliminated his team!
You know who did them in? Christina for giving them the LOT Polish Airlines phone number thus making them get out of line and losing their place in the Czech Airlines ticket office. And Christina again for suggesting they go to the ticket agent that gave them the Business Class tickets.

I can't give my Asian sister the love for that, plus for dissing my Goths.  :cmas50 :cmas50 :cmas50

Very emotional mat chats, most could not even catch their breath and Phil didn't seem his usual self, don't you think? He looked "hawt" in more ways than one.

I now think that the proper wording, for multiple reasons, is "the Goths were the best team ever."  Reason 1 is that I have lost respect for a team that would cheat, lie and steal to stay in the competition. Is this what real goths do? I think not. Reason 2 is that it appears in the previews of next week that the Goths are understandably desperate to get ahead so they are trying to create a cushion for the Speed Bump impact. My bet is that they are going down and they will be history.

It really goes on how you compete.

For example, in track (i.e. another race), you generally don't try and do anything that impedes the other racer.  You are simply trying to do your best and hoping your best is better then theirs.

I honestly do have a strong perference for this type of competition.  Even with my favorite team, I didn't like it that they cancelled teams cabs.  That was somewhat balanced by the fact that they actually owned up to it, before the race left the airport.  Why BJ & Tyler didn't yield them is beyond me....

But there are many competitions where you have rules for what is an allowable for means and whys of trying to impede another competitor.  Soccer and Football for example have a lot of that.

I understand that lying is used on the race.  The thing I don't care for is two fold.  Hypocrisy.  Or a team who lies to a team and also lies to the audience.

Take Rob and Amber compared to Dustin & Kandice.  In general I like BQ's a lot more (a lot more).  But one thing I liked about Rob is that he usually would be honest in confessionals or to the audience.  I loved that BQ's yielded Bama and Eric & Danielle, both were smart choices. I didn't care for them not owning up (to the audience) about deceiving teams about their use of the Yield in season 10.  I mean common on be honest with us....

Well in most cases of organized competition lying and cheating are usually reasons to be banned.

Take Survivor (which I barely watch.  But I did watch most of I think Cook Island.  Where in my mind you had to very different but successful survivors.  Ozzie and Yul.  I liked both, a lot.  But I honestly prefer Ozzie.

Obviously just a viewers choice for what type of style they like.

there are so many things wrong with this sentence -- 1, the proper wording for YOU is "the goths were the best team ever", many people enjoy teams who are cut throat and are willing to be bastards to get ahead in a game when racing for 1 000 000 dollars. 2, what exactly do you mean by "Is this what real goths do?" -- are you saying that because that all Blondes would yield you in your tracks in every day life? Do all couples who wear red like to lie?
