Mona & Beth go get directions. About time.

Jennifer is in the maze. Jennifer: "This is probably what it feels like to do drugs... even though I've never done drugs." LOL. Country singers are out of the roadblock in 3rd.

Joey & Meghan are team #2! WOW! Highest placement for them.

Pit stop:
1st - Max & Katie
2nd - Joey & Meghan

Were there six clues in the white room?

Mona & Beth finally arrive at the salon. Beth does the roadblock. She needed to ask to get the person who said the quote. Hockey players arrive shortly after. Anthony is doing the roadblock.

Caroline & Jennifer are team #3.

Pit stop:
1st - Max & Katie
2nd - Joey & Meghan
3rd - Caroline & Jennifer

Shades of season 3 & 5 here!
Every reality star is someone's favorite

Winning isn't everything, but it isn't considered nothing either. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a tribal council, a pit-stop, a boardroom, dimming of the lights, and so on

lol Beth. "Don't ever do drugs!" Beth hears Anthony behind her. They're working on the roadblock together... Bad choice methinks. Anthony finds the white room first. Beth is right behind. Anthony & Bates get credited with a 4th place roadblock finish. Now they're both off to the pit stop... Mona & Beth are going to lose a footrace if it comes to that...

Bates & Anthony are just going to follow Mona & Beth...

OMG RACE TO THE PIT STOP. RACE. Bates & Anthony beat Mona & Beth............ awks. Mona & Beth look pissed. Bates & Anthony are team #4. Mona & Beth are the last team to arrive... Phil is leading them on... Phil: "Well, Bates & Anthony... I have some bad news for you two..."

WOW PHIL. WOW. He just tells them that they will have to keep competing against Mona & Beth! It's a NEL! :hearts: Mona & Beth say that they will need to find some way to get ahead of them...

And now we end off with really creepy and weird music.

Pit stop:
1st - Max & Katie
2nd - Joey & Meghan
3rd - Caroline & Jennifer
4th - Bates & Anthony
5th - Mona & Beth (NEL)

Bates and Anthony survive a last-place finish!  Got the Colin & Christie edit, though this reminded me of the footrace between Ken/Gerard & JVJ and then Jon/Kelly & Millie/Chuck from back in the day

Could the music possibly be a hint of what is to come in the next leg?

Next week...

Teams experience the best of Scotland. Max is playing a bagpipe. Caroline & Jennifer are dealing with haggis... And there's a double U-Turn! More alliance drama! Sounds like Mona & Beth and Joey & Meghan have a 3 hour lead over the other teams! :hearts: :hearts: :hearts:

Well that preview leads me to believe Bates and Anthony might be the next eliminated.

Oh yes he can.  You never know when you're done or not. No more struts to the pitstop!

Previews are always misleading. I think all will be tied (even though it would be GREAT to have them hours ahead!)

And, Mona and Beth, I will only tell you a couple of words. STOP and ASK. KTHX

Yes, as mentioned, a 3-hour lead mentioned in a preview means nothing. No way they're allowing someone to have that advantage with no more NEL or TBC remaining.

I think even if it's a 3/4 hour lead,they probably got delayed or only Max/Katie Joey/Meghann got on. I don't think
J/M is smart enough to find the quickest flight and Rollerderby is dead last.

This episode was a good episode not my favorite of the season. There was very little competition until the very end when Roller Derby and Hockey battled it out. The tasks were good and all, but I didn't get much entertainment as if they were all bunched up and competing.

I personally really liked this episode. Last episode was kind of a letdown for me, so this is a relief!

Task-by-Task Review:
Base Jump - It was okay...... I'm glad there weren't any heights-breakdowns that would segue to a commercial :res:
Detour - Both tasks seemed really interesting! Though the only reason the Letter choice was exciting was because of the flashing letters :lol: and the Trains (MORE trains.. :lol3: ) task was a general yet great task as well!
Roadblock - It was.. weird :lol: but it was cool!

Team-by-Team Review:
Max & Katie - FINALLY!! A 1ST-PLACE FINISH :hearts: :hearts:
Joey & Meghan - They finally climbed to the top as well for a change. Not to mention this is their first Top 3 finish!
Caroline & Jennifer - I was kind of sick of Jen feeling all bad for Bates & Anthony and how they're falling behind.. still like them.
Bates & Anthony - It was great to see them struggle! It's not that I hate them, but it's always nice to see a dominant team fall right to the back.
Mona & Beth - Still nothing from them, it's amazing. I don't like nor hate them. "Don't do drugs!" :lol:

Overall Review:
-I loved the fact that this was a night leg! :hrt:
-There was some obvious foreshadowing during the episode: Katie thinking about winning the leg with the new Ford's and Mona & Beth in a confessional saying to finish as hard as they've started the Race.
-Self-driving!!! :hrt:

Great episode!

Same here.  As much as I wouldn't have mind if they had kept winning permanently, it gives future episodes more of a competitive feel to it. OTOH, if there were two teams dominating, that might be a different story.

Can't really blame Bates & Anthony here, because most of the other teams that performed exceptionally well have been eliminated.  Haven't really seen anything like that since season 4 (before the remaining teams eventually got at least one win).  Either way, had one or two of them survived, then it would not have looked so much like they were the team to really beat.
