I was thinking that Margie and Luke could possibly get a penalty for riding a motorcycle, but I guess not. Because they weren't told not to.

I don't think Luke & Margie were on a motorcycle last night. It was Mel seeing things.

That's correct. Mel thought he saw Luke & Margie on a motorcycle, but the mother and son were back with the gorilla.

Finally somebody knows, "Phuket Zoo!"
Mel: You sure?
The guy is very, very sure.
They tell the taxista to take them back to town.
In separate cabs, Jaime/Cara make a "Tweedledee/Tweedledum" comment about Mark/Mike.
"They're like characters from a cartoon!"
Both teams arrive at the herb shop.
Man: GOOODDDD MAWWWNNNIIINGGG
Each team guesses. Both wrong.
They yell numbers at the man.
The guy pullling drawers out "didn't speak a lick of English" either.
Finally Mel/Mike make it back to the zoo. Picture! Smile!
Kisha/Jen arrive at the herb shop with 2 teams already picking numbers.
Now three teams.
Mark/Michael, choose 114. DETOUR.
Phil: A hundred barrels, or 2 miles.
Barrels, make way to harbor, prepare fishing ship for 10 days at sea. Fill 47 barrells and move 53 empties to the roof, arranging properly.
Two miles, Make way to temple, choose ricksha. One pull, one ride. If there's a flat tire, you get to pump it up!

mswood, my perspective on the flat tires is different. Each rickshaw has ONE tire only that is flat, so it is guaranteed to run badly unless you figure that out and get the necessary air from the pump. No teams at the start of that DETOUR after Mark/Michael appeared to figure that out, partially because of the obfuscation of the pumps by them (they certainly deserved that penalty as it must have disrupted all the other teams).

It sucks (but in a really good way).

Perhaps because there are no alpha male teams in AR14. Mel was 68 years old and Mark/Michael were short people. If there's another male/male team then I missed it. Contrast that with the 3 very strong female/female teams that were or are still in AR14. Does somebody at World Race Productions and CBS want to see a F/F victory? I'd say there is a good chance of that since there are casting teams that encourage it.
