Amazing Race Questions
Best Loser:
It might be in Season 6, but none of the episodes are called that.
Zack.:
I believe it was the alternate title for the first Botswana leg of TAR 7; originally it was aired along with the South Africa leg as a two hour special under one title.

On this wiki page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Amazing_Race_(U.S._TV_series)), in the award section, it says that the episode for the emmy in 2005 was We're Moving Up the Food Chain. Maybe I'm dumb, but I can't seem to find it in any of the seasons. :cmas5

The episode title sounded familiar.
IMDb also lists that episode title for year 2005 Emmy nomination. I believe there was a double episode where that was the title of the episode for the second hour, but which wasn't used in TV listings; but that was the title used in the Emmy submission. (I found one google link to the Baltimore Sun with an article listing the 2005 Emmy winners with that information, so it isn't anyone's imagination.
ETA: I've done some googling and here's where it fits in. The Botswana legs of TAR 7 (legs 6 and 7) were aired as one episode (episode 6) of two hours. "We're Moving Up The Food Chain" was the second hour's title that was submitted for Emmy consideration (successfully). Not even the DVDs make this clear in the packaging. It was the second episode in Botswana where Ray and Deana were eliminated. The DVD is a bit confusing because that season included a recap episode with its own episode title quote that some listings indicate as being the second Botswana episode, but that's not correct. It was a season with 14 hours, 12 episodes, and 13 legs. The longest season of TAR's history.

To any former racer who might be reading this, has anybody actually tried to throw the third leg, reading about the third place curse?
