Sad, season is almost over.

Maybe next season (though I doubt it), we actually get some good racers.  It seems like all we got was characters.

Previously on The Amazing Race

Cowboys surge ahead with the noodles while Dan & Jordan break down

Cowboys and Models battle agains the wind

The Cops just couldn't recover and get NEL'd

who will be eliminated next?
The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move

PREVIOUSLY ON . THE AMAZING RACE:

Four teams raced from Singapore to Shanghai.  Jordan got tangled up. For the first time ever, there was a 2nd Roadblock in the same leg, and the "other" member had to do it.  Wind vexed Michael, Brent.  In the end, the Cowboys came out on top.  Detectives came in last, but were spared Philimination in an inexplicably coinkydental Non-Philimination Leg.  

Four teams still remain.  Who will be Philiminated next?

Phil: This is Shanghai.  Centuries ago, among the first cities opened to Western trade.  It's the most cosmopolitan in China.  Science / Technology Museum, the 10th pitstop. 

Jet/Cord, CLUE, 8:02 am: Make your way to the Garden Bridge.
Phil: Across the city.  Locals know it by the Chinese name.  They'll search for the clue, there.
Confessional W H I N I N G about how tough this R A C E is for each of 'em.  Boo-hoo.
Locals don't know "The Garden Bridge" and it sure looks like the 'Pokes got sent somewhere WRONG.

Brent/Caite 8:36 am.
Caite conf: People think I'm a M O R O N because of that question I slipped up on, you know, the trick question, the one they had no business asking my brilliantness ...

Jet/Cord got tooken to the wrong place. 
Wasted walking, no cluebox.
Fortunately they find someone who speaks better English and has a cell phone that translates the name into Chinese.
Now they're in a taxi, possibly going the right way, possibly not. 


Dan/Jordan, 8:53 am.
Dan pats himself on the back for "giving Jordan his dream."
Then Dan remembers it doesn't sound like he wants to W I N and changes his confessional accordingly.
They find  no EngRish spoken, though, and won't be finding the "Garden Bridge."

Brent, in cab, finds bridge first.  He and Caite get out.
CLUE: Make your way to Longhua Temple.  You may NOT travel by Taxi.
Jet/Cord get the CLUE close behind, in 2nd.


Brent/Caite, mapping it out.  They decide to take a bus and find some decent English spoken.

Jet/Cord ask the cab driver what transport they should take.

Dan/Jordan trouble translating "Garden Bridge" into anything the locals can understand.
Dan/Jordan spell B R I D G E for someone who doesn't understand what they need ... and get nothing in return.
They're still hopeful the Speed Bump will keep the Dicks in last place, though.

The Dicks are having none of it; they want to win.
Dan/Jordan and the Dicks put their heads together.
S C H M O O Z E it up, guys!
With binoculars, Michael finds what he thinks may be the Garden Bridge.
Well, he's not really sure.

Brent/Caite, ROADBLOCK.
Phil: One who attains enlightenment. Teams must enter Temple and attain knowledge. Count golden statues in the room, 523, for the next clue. If answer wrong, they wait 10 minutes before restarting.

Ok, Dan & Jordan waiting for another team knowing they have another task, not a bad idea.  But not getting the same directions to your cab driver is a stupid as BJ & Tyler asking Eric & Jeremy for directions instead of going and asking the ambulance yourself.  Thats being an idiot.

Brent enjoying the temple and its traditions, yes.
Brent enjoying Caite's inability to count accurately, not as much.

More Cop Binocular Action! 
More standing around looking lost!
More talking to each other instead of locals!

Maroons!  Dan/Jordan/Michael/Louie need to just pick someone and AXE them a question!

It's kinda funny when they DO finally ask, though ... they get a group of people speaking ALL Chinese, and no English.
But apparently there's a phone translation service that they can call if they just borrow a cell phone.
With directions, finally, off they go.
Two cars racing ... or not so much racing as trying to convince their drivers which way to drive!

Brent & Caite in first and at least 20 minutes ahead of the cowboys, who would've thought?

Dan/Jordan's cabbie doesn't understand the word F O L L O W

Dan/Jordan teach him the word M E L T D O W N

and some other English catchphrases such as S C R E W E D

and S T U P I D

and C O M M E R C I A L !

Look Jet reads the clue.  Gets the task on first attempt.
