Damn it looks like parts of the east coast will certainly have a delay.

PREVIOUSLY ON .. THE AMAZING RACE:

Phil: Nine teams left Fortaleza, for LaPaz, Brazil. Christy leveled an accusation at Starr about a bra, which carried over to LaPaz. At the Detour, Christy took a tumble and Nick/Starr made an offer to Aja/Ty about the U-Turn. At the Roadblock, Aja spilled the beans. Ken/Tina finished the leg in 1st, and Mark/Bill were eliminated.

Eight teams remain. Who will be eliminated next?


Credits roll.

Phil: This is LaPaz, Bolivia, 13,000 feet above sea level, the world's highest capital. Third pitstop in a Race around the world.

Kelly/Christy confronted Nick/Starr about telling Aaja/Ty to use the U-Turn (which they didnt).

Ken/Tina, CLUE, 12:33 am. Fly to New Zealand. (!excited!)
Phil: Fly to Auckland. Drive to Gulf Harbor, untie the gordian knot for the next clue.

Toni/Dallas, 12:59 am.
Ken/Tina conf: We know the airport's closed but they have the internet.

Terence/Sarah, 1:04. Aja/Ty, 1:06. Marisa/Brooke in there, too. Nick/Starr, Andrew/Dan, teams leaving moments apart.

Aja conf: It's 'exhausting' to be with Ty every single minute. It's a fine line between (being together, and together too much)
Nick/Starr are "forming an adult relationship."
Andrew/Dan pushing a little b/c Dan is doing too much "This isn't the Dan show."

In last, Kelly/Christy finally get their clue and leave the pitstop.
But of course the closed airport may equalize them all.

Teams arrive at the airport to find other teams present.
Ugh.
Someone borrows a laptop.
Andrew/Dan "bond" with Marissa/Brooke, thinking that they are a weak team.
Kelly/Christy feel fortunate to not have to do their own research, having arrived last at the airport.
Ty is still online, trying to get a faster flight.
Aja: We'll wait in line.
Ty conf: Attitudes kick in. Pressure. Mood changes.   
Ty to Aja: Okay, leader. I'll just call you Fidel Castro. Are we done now?
Aja: Am I running a dictatorship?
They carry the argument over to the seats as they wait for the airport to open.
Aja punches Ty in his ribs, then they hug.

MORNING!

Oh boy!  Looks like Aja & Ty just got a flat tire!  That's no fun!  However, I'll bet they get someone to help them out.

Phil: Everyone has the same flight to Auckland.
EQUALIZER!

On the ground in Auckland, it's night.
Teams scramble for the marked cars they must drive.
Nice ... niiiiicccceee cars.  
Kelly/Christy leapfrogged some teams betwixt the airport and the cars.
Ken isn't too happy with losing his "30 minute lead" but still close to the top of the pack
Terence/Sarah lead. Andrew/Dan are near the top of the pack as well.
Aja/Ty notice Ty's driving on the WRONG side of the road.  

It's still night, as teams look for signs in the dark.
Two teams pass Terence/Sarah at a turnoff.
Ty blows a tire. It's down to the R I M ...
Ty:Don't do this! I've never had a flat in my life!
Passing ... Other team member: Aja didn't look happy.
Aja gets out and tries to flag down some help.
COMMERCIAL.

Nick/Starr still driving around.

Ken/Tina can see the tower from where they're driving into Auckland.
So can Andrew/Dan.
Both teams park cars in a garage and try to get up to the top.
Dude: I need both of you guys to get into jumpsuits.   
Both Ken and Tina don jumpsuits and head up in an elevator.

Aja/Ty think they're geting the gordian knot in last, but not; Marissa/Brooke are last.


Terence/Sarah/Other teams: ROADBLOCK: Take an image of a tattoo seen on Maori warriors, and match the tattoo to the exact same one on a warrior in the crowd. If you guess wrong, the warrior makes you start again. If correct, you get the next CLUE.

Toni does the warrior tattoo roadblock as day breaks.
Dallas conf: Please do NOT eat my Mom!
Toni gets it right. They head for the City Life Hotel.
It's morning now.
CLUE, Terence/Sarah: Spot a Travelocity Gnome from the rooftop, using binoculars. Then go and retrieve it, for the next clue.

Ken/Tina clamber up the ladder of the spire on the tallest building in the hemisphere.
After driving around lost, forever, Marisa/Brooke are JUST NOW getting to the marina.
They realize they stand a good chance at being eliminated.

Looks like Marissa & Brooke missed the Gordian knot!  Look carefully, ladies!  And it's impressive that Terence could find the right warrior in the early morning darkness!  Of course, he missed one time but that's not real surprising in the darkness.
