Next Time on TARAus:

- Richard and Joey get their car stuck in the mud
- RB: Bungee jumping
- Team gets pulled over by the police

We have an intersection in Cape Town so we are assuming Jo'berg - Leg 4 (Elimination) and Cape Town - Leg 5 (Elimination OR NEL OR TBC?)

Quote
TV GUIDE: The remaining nine teams scale great heights to face their greatest fears in South Africa. While some teams revel in African traditions, others struggle when it comes time to feed the giraffes.

Do we know two will be booted? Couldn't the second South Africa leg be a NEL?

I beg your pardon, there is a possiblility that the second leg in S.A could be a Non-Elimination, only a hunch atm

A few bits from the TV guide-

Quote
The remaining nine teams face their fears in South Africa. While some of them revel in African traditions, others struggle to deal with the challenges including feeding giraffes. Another couple finds themselves on the wrong side of the law, while Richard and Joey's ruthless determination threatens to be their downfall.

And a longer piece on Richard and Joey & this episode by Dianne Butler

Quote
So Richard and Joey are the team to beat on Amazing Race. That's according to Richard and Joey, because they shaved their hair off last week.
I don't know that it's going to be very effective.
The other contestants don't seem remotely threatened.
Apparently "nobody" likes Richard and Joey.
Alana and Mel? I think it was them - the sisters - who said it. The marvellous thing about this show of course is we, and Richard and Joey, don't have to wait long for Alana and Mel to look like idiots themselves.
All it takes is a manual gear shift. How many people have come unstuck by one of those?
Hard to believe, really. You don't often see two people driving the same vehicle.
But at least it's a reasonably sensible challenge. Some of the ones tonight (Monday) are completely inane.
Building a giraffe feeder. Dragging a goat. (Tyler and Nathan's approach: "We just took the bull by the horns and dragged the thing up there.")
The contestants are in South Africa, by the way. They left Macau and made their way, by various routes, to a carpark in Port Elizabeth where there's a car waiting.
I realise that sounds easy, locating a car in a carpark, but you saw that episode of Seinfeld where nobody can remember where Dramer parked his car - and Elaine's goldfish either dies or almost dies and George does a wee in the carpark and I think Jerry might too and it's all very, very bad.
Kramer bought an air conditioner and has to cart it around while they try to find his car. And this is more or less - though not really - how Amazing Race starts tonight (Monday). Do the farmers always get banjo music when they appear on screen?
Maybe I'm only noticing it now for the first time. It's a nice touch. Makes me want to see Deliverance again.

It's worth noting, though, that Dianne Butler is a twat. Her "reviews" usually consist of extended tangents having absolutely nothing to do with the show, to the point where you wonder whether she even saw the episode she's supposed to be talking about at ALL. Believe it or not, that Seinfeld rant is actually one of her shorter efforts. Since she's first and foremost a gossip columnist (who in person makes Dave & Kelly seem classy), it's a bit like New York Times readers having Will Shortz writing about baseball.

Looks like wine or shoot is this week and drag a goat and giraffe feeder are the active route markers?

Interesting...some aired Pit Stop check-ins. Though it looks Mo and Mos have some sort of penalty. :lol:
Physics alone is not enough.

Those are caps from the Hong Kong/Macau leg.

Alana and Mel didn't change prior to leaving the Venetian, and it looks like Alana had time to change while Mel did the Roadblock.

Something about them fighting - shows Indonesian airport
"I swear to God, I'll stop right here"
More fighting in China
Shows a massive wooden barrel with tap - huge puddle of red liquid underneath
Chris shouting abuse
Voice over says 'will this be the end?' or something
 
You literally see 2 secs on new footage

Safe from Elimination at End of Leg:

    * Sam and Renae - Last seen getting off train in Europe
    * Tom and Matt - Last spotted on route to Sri Lanka
    * Nathan and Taylor - Last seen getting off train in Europe
    * Chris and Anastasia - Last seen doing crossbow task in Prague
    * David and Kelly - Last seen in Prague
    * Jeff and Luke - Last seen in Prague

   
Possibly Eliminated (in South Africa):

    * Alana and Mel - Last seen driving in South Africa
    * Richard and Joey - Last seen driving in South Africa
    * Mo and Mos - Last seen at shooting task in South Africa

Macau was warm at the time of shooting (as evidenced by all the teams who changed out of their casino outfits checking in in warm gear), and it was late spring in South Africa. Based on Alana & Mel and Richard & Joey being shown at the Hue airport in cold-weather gear (which doesn't match the outfits they were wearing upon departure from the Pit Stop or in Hong Kong and Macau), they're both safe until at least Europe. Therefore, with a known Intersection in Cape Town, Leg 4 in Port Elizabeth sees Mo & Mos get booted and Leg 5 in Cape Town is a non-elimination.
