So hi there  :waves:

Looking forward to the latest TAR 25 episode!  And I won't spoil anything -- though there wouldn't be much to spoil this week, most likely.

Previously on The Amazing Race...

5 teams raced to Singapore. At a travel agency, Kym & Alli got the upper hand but in a fast forward showdown against Adam & Bethany, the cyclists wiped out.

Jim flipped out at the roadblock while the scientists lost their composure at the massage detour :lol:. The soul surfers won their 2nd leg in a row, and a lie from the wrestlers sent the scientists astray...

But in the end, the cyclists couldn't recover from their Fast Forward gamble.

4 teams remain. Who will be eliminated next? Brooke: "I secretly want her to fall so we're first." :lol:

Adam & Bethany depart 1st at 2:01 PM. Fly to Manilla, Philippines. Once there, they must pick up their next clue from a flower vender. Adam thinks they deserve to be in the top 3. Their confidence is a little shaken after their flight booking mess last leg. They get a flight out at 7:25 tonight which arrives at 11:00 PM on Singapore Airlines.

Brooke & Robbie depart at 3:35 PM. Robbie wants to go to the airport but Brooke wants to go to the travel agency. Brooke basically lists a bunch of their flaws, which includes not knowing what continent they're on most of the time. :funny: They get on the same flight.

Misti & Jim depart at 3:48 PM. They're going to the airport.

Amy & Maya depart at 4:27 PM. They say they're not much of a physical threat but they're an academic threat. :lol: Maya is calling a travel agency on the way to the airport in a taxi. They get on the same 11 PM flight.

Misti & Jim are at the airport asking for flights.

Amy & Maya going to get their tickets. Misti & Jim find out that flight was fully booked...

Amy & Maya ask the time Brooke & Robbie got to the pit stop. Maya says they got in an hour later. Brooke & Robbie manage to convince Amy & Maya that it was a misunderstanding? ??? Really bizarre.

Dentists don't get on the flight... What the heck. Wow. They're in last.

First flight arrives. Brooke & Robbie get the first taxi. They don't know where the dentists are.

Adam & Bethany second.
Bethany: "How do you say hello in Filipino?"
Taxi Driver: "Hello!"

Amy & Maya 3rd.

Wrestlers find out that you have to pick up the clue from the flower vender at 6:30 AM. Wow dentists are lucky. Dentists arrive before 6:30.

Teams getting their clue. Make your way to Rosario Municipal Plaza and find Salinas Specials for the next clue. Teams have to get on a jeepney. :lol: Maya talking about being immersed in the culture. <33333 She's so cool. "We should bring jeepneys to the states!"

Adam said it was like a limo. Robbie said it was like a limo... except nothing like it. :lol: Brooke can't handle the smell and she's gagging and stuff. Robbie with the title in a confessional.

Misti & Jim talking about seeing children in the middle of the street, just sitting there. :( So sad. They're emotional.

All teams looking for Salinas Specials. Brooke: "Smells like dog food." All teams just walking together lol and they all get the clue together.

Detour: Catch or Coach
Catch: Using a bucket, transport fish to the shore. Once they've filled 3 buckets (about 300 pounds), they will get their next clue.
Coach: Assemble a sidecar and properly mount it onto a motorcycle.

Everyone except wrestlers are doing coach.

Amy & Maya got directions and they were told to walk. All other teams in rickshaws. Misti & Jim say that Amy & Maya might get a penalty for not taking a rickshaw? ???

Were the teams supposed to walk or take a cab to the next location?  If the teams were supposed to walk, then Misti & Jim, Brooke & Robbie and Adam & Bethany might be in trouble.

Amy & Maya realize that the clue said you have to take a motor tricycle... Oh dear. :groan: They run back and now they get a motor tricycle.

Brooke keeps talking about how nasty everything is. :lol: Ew her coughing is not super nice. :lol: They decided at the beginning to do physical challenges lol. They get into the water and walk along a rope. The waves are pretty crazy. Robbie held the bucket and Brooke put the fish in.

Dentists and surfers get to coach. Surfers pick a hippie-ish sidecar. :lol: Jim says this is pretty natural for him. Adam says he loves doing maintenance type stuff and Bethany said she was his assistant. :lol:

People cheering for Brooke & Robbie as they arrive on shore. By hands, they have to transfer the fish into another bucket. ROBBIE IS DOING THIS ONE FISH AT A TIME. :lol: Robbie doesn't like dealing with animals. This is really funny. :lol: Brooke's being a pro at this and Robbie's just transporting 2 fish at a time. :lol:

Amy & Maya arrive at coach.

Amy said they're pretty good at putting stuff together. Maya: I don't know my tools very well. :lol:

Brooke & Robbie going for their second trip out. Robbie: "At least we're getting cardio today." They're having trouble with this because the fish are too heavy and then the waves making the fish fall out of the bucket. They're arguing because some fish spilled out of the bucket on shore. They're putting the fish into a bucket. Robbie thinks they need 2 more trips.

Misti & Jim think they're getting really close.

Adam tells Bethany to loosen a screw. Bethany: "I guess you could call me a girl..." :lol:

Maya put together a homogenizer for her research. "That's the ony thing I put together besides my wardrobe but that's got no tools on it." :lol:

Brooke & Robbie continue transporting the fish.

Misti & Jim call for a judge. They talk to the camera guy and Jim thinks they're going to get approved but they don't. Incorrect shock installation.

Amy & Maya picked a tuk tuk with a cross necklace. Amy: "I don't think the Lord cares which tuk tuk we decide to build." :funny:

It's starting to rain. Brooke & Robbie need to make more trips because of the rain. Wow tough detour.

It's pouring rain at the other detour now too. Bethany: "I'm just going to put on this thing because I think it's easy." :funny:

Misti & Jim getting another check. But still not good.

Brooke & Robbie transporting fish into the bucket... Robbie thinks they got it... Robbie is telling a story about handling fish because he used to have a goldfish. :lol: "I know the fish are dead but they're happy with the way I'm throwing them into a bucket." WHAT THE HECK IS HAPPENING? :funny: They finish the detour in 1st. Proceed to Naic Rice Fields.

Adam & Bethany finish the detour in 2nd!

Jim has no idea what's wrong. Their shock is still wrong. Jim: "Almost Copenhagen all over again."

Commercial.

Hope Amy & Maya finish the cab before Misti & Jim manage to install the shock correctly!  I still think it's an NEL but I'd rather have Misti & Jim do the Speed Bump than Amy & Maya.

Back at coach and Jim's still trying to figure out what's wrong... And he realized he forgot to connect the shock.

Amy & Maya are getting a check... It's not good. They don't think the seat's tight enough.

Brooke & Robbie realize they're in first. They can't believe they're in first. :funny: :funny: :funny: They're so happy. "We're the pro wrestlers... We're never in first." :funny: Phil doing a live standup. Throwback to season 5 and MY OX IS BROKEN. :funny: :funny: :funny: Teams must use their ox to dig up their next clue buried somewhere in the mud.

Brooke says she is awesome with animals and Robbie isn't... :lol: Brooke picks the ox and their field. Brooke says she thinks their ox is about to poop... and it pooped. Brooke and Robbie's reaction is hilarious. :funny: :funny: :funny:

Misti & Jim finish the detour in 3rd.

Robbie's basically not even doing anything and just following Brooke. Brooke thinks she saw a clue so they start digging... Robbie's just digging... "Is all of this ox poop?" :funny:

Adam & Bethany arrive at the oxes.

Robbie: "Cement, clay, ox poop... I believe that is what we're strolling through." OMG BROOKE PICKED THE LARGEST POND? :groan: :groan: :groan:

Adam & Bethany start. I think Brooke & Robbie's ox pooped again. :lol:

Amy & Maya finish the detour in last.

Once you choose a pond, you can't switch. Brooke picked the largest one. :groan:

Misti & Jim arrive. Amy & Maya here now. Everyone's here...

Misti & Jim get into the mud. Jim doesn't know how to control his ox. Maya can't even walk in the mud. Brooke's mad that everyone's here. Robbie's just digging through the mud. :lol:
