As posted and thanks too SurvivorLDog93 @ Sucks \|]
Aaron smoked the competition in the Relay |(
CBS DISCLAIMER: This episode in Sri Lanka was filmed before the tsunami disaster. We dedicate this episode to the thousands of people who lost their lives in the tsunami and those who struggle in its aftermath.
Phil: En route to Ethiopia, Adam secured an early flight. Adam was irate. Rebecca threatened to cut their relationship. Victoria cut her hand, but Jonathan showed no sympathy. Kendra got stuck on a clue, and got Yielded. But Jonathan/Victoria misread their clue, took only one donkey when they should have taken two. They were eliminated.
CLUE, Lori/Bolo, 1st: Choose a pair of Ethiopian runners and complete a 4 person relay.
Phil: When they finish the race, the track coach will give them their next clue.
Bolo: Run like the police are chasin' ya, dude! 'Cause I'mma run like the police are chasin' me! I'm used to it!
Lori: I wish I didn't have to pee!
In second starting out, Hayden: I'm excited. I ran 4x4 in college track.
Kris/Jon in 3rd, now on the track.
Bolo "runs out of gas" and is caught by the Ethiopian runner on Hayden's team. Hayden occupies the inside lane as Lori lumbers along. No matter ... Lori/Bolo finish first.
Bolo, CLUE: Fly to the city of Colombo, Sri Lanka.
Phil: Teams must hire a local tuk tuk to take them to the next clue.
Finishing second, Hayden/Aaron. Kris/Jon finish 3rd.
puddin:
Kendra, in cab: I keep having to make restroom stops!
Bolo/Lori get a flight to Colombo and are told it's the "only flight."
Rebecca/Adam finish the track run in 4th.
Aaron/Hayden lose ground in the cab to Jon/Kris.
Aaron: That's why we'd like to see Kris and Jon GONE!
Kendra and Rebecca race on the track, with Rebecca kicking her lily livered ass.
Kendra conf: My stomach was in knots. I ran like an 80 year old woman.
Rebecca, in the cab: Backup oxygen, somebody!!
Finally Freddy finishes the relay.
All four teams except Freddy/Kendra seem to be getting the
same flight ... it's the ONLY flight. Freddy/Kendra's cab is lost.
Freddy stops to argue with a cab driver.
He stiffs the guy, claiming it's "not fair."
Meanwhile, in the airport, man: It's boarding.
Kendra: Can we still get seats?
Man: Yes. You can still get seats.
puddin:
So happy now that I took Kendra off my MW Team {l{ , hurling and whining all the time (%#
puddin:
All five teams arrive in Sri Lanka together.
It's a mad dash for cabs to the train station.
Cabs driving all over the road in a tremendous hurry.
Lori/Bolo have a cabbie who isn't exaclty safety conscious .. but he's getting 'em there!
Kris/Jon observe from the cab, that it's a beautiful place.
Adam/Rebecca in last.
At the train station ... tickets.
No seats. They'll have to make do without seats.
Bolo: I guess we'll just sit on the floor here.
Kendra: Omigod! I'm gonna puke!!
First train leaves.
Adam/Rebeca miss it. They have to get the later train, like an hour and a half later.
Adam: They all left but us! I'm pissed. We just lost the whole game
puddin:
Adam: I wanna go back to the airport! Go to the airport and leave! I want to leave! Leave!
Rebecca: Taxi! Take him to the airport! Let's give up! I'm down for whatever.
Adam: Stop talking.
Rebecca: That's an easy one!
Meanwhile the others de-train.
Hayden: A tuk tuk?
There's the tuk tuks ... small cars which carry people like taxis, driving on 3 wheels instead of the usual 4.
Climbing steps to the next clue ... Lori/Bolo
DETOUR.
Tree trunks? Or elephant trunks?
Phil: Tree trunks, travel 2 miles to coconut plantation. Climb to the top, traverse the rope walkway and pick up a jug of sap to get the next clue.
Elephant trunks, travel 2 1/2 miles to the polo field, riding down the field on the elephant, dribble, then shoot at the goal. When both team members have scored a goal, you get the clue.
