<< < (3/15) > >>

RachelLeVega:
Alex forgets the number one rule of the Race: reading the clue entirely, properly, and thoroughly!

Violinists close in and get to sailing. ANd Joey & Tim are right behind them. "This is ridiculous."

Cedric & Shawn determine they drove the wrong way. Eric & Daniel somehow parallel parked their car on someone else's driveway, how?! :snicker:. And Brittany is having an emotional meltdown while Lucas and her are still at the gas station trying to calm down after their recent minor argument, trying to suck it up but can't.

Commercials.

RachelLeVega:
And we come back with Lucas & Brittany apologizing to each other at the gas station. They are learning from each leg of the race how to work better together. Brittany is now genuinely happy and determined to get back in it!

Meanwhile, Alex finally grabs their final half while Cody grabs his first clue. Evan is frustrated with the dinghy and panicking. Trevor & Chris and Joey & Tim are neck-and-neck struggling in the water. Joey capsizes while Cody grabs his 2nd part of the clue. Evan hits the pier and is stuck along the shoreline. "Am I stuck on something?" Uh yes, yes you are.

Cedric & Shawn encounter their SPEED BUMP! They must stack 15 Oculus boats in numerical order on the racks from left to right to proceed to their Roadblock. Shawn and Cedric believe the manual labor made this task a lot easier for them despite the tediousness.

Trevor is finally rowing away with two oars down at once. Joey is steering using the win, another strategy. And Trevor grabs his clue first while Joey is next.

RachelLeVega:
Evan has no idea what she's doing. Rowing with one oar is no help, not moving at all. And suddenly, the metal rod punches Evan's tooths and cracks a bit of it off. :faint: She keeps on going.

Meanwhile, Kristi & Jen are at the sandal Detour! It's more about attention to detail and they figure this strategy out. Meanwhile, Cody & Jessica and Alex & Conor arrive at Bread and begin the process. It's a bakery heaven for both of them while the head baker is shaking his head. Oh geez.

Cedric & Shawn finish their Speed Bump and are allowed to move along to the Roadblock in 7th! Nice job! Lucas & Brittany arrive 8th at the boats. Evan finally realizes the wind would help them blow her boat rather than her manually rowing it with no head with the wind. Meanwhile, Cedric and Lucas are catching up to her. Brittany is in worriment as she sees Cedric constantly capsizing his dinghy. "One team hasn't even showed up!" And that team finally shows up, Eric & Daniel are in last place and arrive at the RB!

"Come on everything quick. It ain't over til it's over!" ~ Eric.

At the Bread Detour, teams figure they did the roll wrong. Baker seems extremely pissed while the Indy drivers are arguing over the form of the bread. Conor complains how he is whiny when nothing goes his way. At the sandals, Kristi & Jen's sandals receive feedback that they have to flatten out their nail heads.

Lucas & Brittany move up to 6th as they grab their last clue half and Evan FINALLY gets hers! Woohoo! Eric & Daniel and Cedric & Shawn are titanic disasters, pun intended. The firefighter is rowing the wrong way and stuck in a corner with the wind holding them back. "It's a murder scene out there. There's no way!" - Shawn. Cedric tips his boat on its side and falls into the water. Shawn is distraught.

Commercials.

NumfarPTB:
Ugh. So US version, Head-to-Head always at Pit-Stop.

RachelLeVega:
We come back as Eric & Daniel and Cedric & Shawn are caught in their own blunders. A cute dog walks by Shawn and he offers him a food for thought. Daniel finally figures out the wind pattern helps his speed while Cedric is following through as well. Physical strength had nothing to do with the dinghy riding smoothly, it required technique and the direction of the wind. They each start grabbing their pair of clues.

 Meanwhile, Kristi & Jen finish the sandals and encounter THE HEAD-TO-HEAD! Teams must compete against each other in a traditional game of "boton" (a variation of marbles) to be able to check in with Phil. Last team remaining without a win may be eliminated. Cody & jess and Alex & Conor both working on breads. Trevor describes himself as the Martha Stewart of his house as he and Chris arrive at the sandals. Joey & Tim arrive just behind them.

The Roadblock proves to be wrapping up as Dan and Cedric get their final halves of the clue.

Meanwhile at Place de Lices, Kristi & Jen await their opposing team.
