As always thanks  and mostly copied from  SurvivorDog @ Sucks   because I cant type without looking at the keys and TV at the same time ( the TV is  behind me )   8-)' , you can read it here or there   _)^

notes : Ron & Kelly arrive after Romber

U&J Joyce complains
L&A they complain
M&G bringing up the rear  :)* .. they are happy to hear Phil's news

pbp.........


Phil: Two teams collaborated, and three teams formed an alliance of their own. In Lucknow, Ron/Kelly feuded and Rob got feisty with the locals. Gretchen grappled with a tough roadblock, then the couple was mobbed by adoring locals. Frontrunners Rob/Amber checked in to what they thought was a pitstop, but it was a twist (and the eyebrows of death).

Five teams remain. Who will be eliminated next?

Recrap of last week's "end."
Phil: Welcome to Lucknow. Here's your other clue.
Rob: Make your way to the train station across the street.
Phil: They'll board a train at the end of platform #2.

Ron/Kelly ricksha their way to what they think is the pitstop.
Phil: Not over yet. Here's a clue.
Ron: Whoa.

Phil: Uchenna/Joyce, here's your next clue.
Joyce: What a trick!! Like, what?


Phil: Lynn/Alex, this leg is not over.
Both: Okay. It's been going on for days.


Mer/Gr finish up the tea serve.
Completed.
Back they go with the cart.
CLUE: Make your way to Phil and the mat.
They get a taxi. Or at least they yell for one.
Gr conf: These people here have been so inspirational. So willing to help us.

Gretchen and Meredith still begging for a cab, "praying we're still in the race."
Meanwhile everyone else rushes to Platform #2.

Phil: Meredith/Gretchen, your race is not over yet. Are you a little shocked?
Gretchen: Omigod!
Mer conf: No announcement that we were eliminated! We were so joyful!

puddin:
theres train  our clock tower and Tuk tuk   ;)

Rob: The train boards at 9:00 at night. Pretty much everyone will get here by that time.

(It's still daytime.)

Meredith: We got all the time in the world!!


EQUALIZER.
9:00 arrives and all five teams are on the same train.
ETA: The ride is 24 hours.

Meredith: It says "wait patiently for our next clue."

Onboard, while they sleep, someone brings them each a clue.

All, CLUE: Search for your next clue at Jodhpur train station.
On the train, Uchenna assumes the "Sheik" look
Rob/Amber and Ron/Kelly share pleasantries on a social car.
Amber conf: We have a lot of respect for each other.
Rob conf: But we want to win!

Finally in Jodhpur, it's dark.
Rob/Amber CLUE: Make your way to the Sardar Market.
Phil: Find the clock tower. Go to the first floor balcony for the next clue.

puddin:
Fast Forward .. OH boy .. that was not Joyces head ..we will see ..
L&A are going for the FF
Detour Trunk or dunk

pbp cont......

Teams take taxis, buses, tuktuks, you name it, to get there.


CLOSED.
Open 10 am - 5 pm.

Another Equalizer ... lol


Teams get ready to check into the hotel.
Rob gets directions.
Rob asks a man to take him as a guide.
Rob: How much?
Man: Free of charge.
Rob: Thanks, buddy! Sounds good!

FIREWORKS.

Gretchen, f rom a balcony above the street: Wonderful!
Lynn/Alex "dancing with these men. Absolutely amazing."


DAYBREAK.
Teams marvel at the nice weather.
Rob: Make sure they don't steal "Sunjee."
Rob gets Sunjee to agree he's with them and no one else.

Bell tower.
Narrow stairway.

CLUES, not read ...Rob/Amber
Uchenna/Joyce
Gretchen: FAST FORWARD!
Phil: Make your way 10 1/2 miles to a temple, engage in a Hindu ritual of having your head shaved. Teams won't know it's head shaving until they've arrived. When both team members are bald, they may proceed to the next pitstop.

Uchenna: We're going after the Fast Forward!

DETOUR: Trunk, or dunk.
Trunk: Choose an elephant statue weighing 600 pounds, transport it 1/2 mile to a temple. Priest hands you the next clue.
Dunk: Travel to this factory, tye-dye these white sheets. CLue can be clearly read when the sheets are untied. The clue only appears on 1 sheet in 25. Could take a long time.

Lynn/Alex going for the Fast Forward.
Rob: Elephants.
Gretchen: Elephants.
Ron/Kelly eschew the FF.

puddin:
We have a Bad elephant said by GRETCHEN ..what a riot

puddin:
Uchenna gets a cab to travel the 10 1/2 miles to the FAST FORWARD.

Meredith/Gretchen run to where the statues are.
Rob/Amber start to push.
Annoying clarinet music plays.
Brings back memories of "The Sheltering Sky."
IEESH!

Lynn: You know Uchenna is going for the FF. They only have to arrive 1 minute ahead of us.
Lynn/Alex get their cabbie to turn around.
They'll DETOUR.

In cab, Uchenna: We're gonna do the fast forward!
Joyce: This is a real gamble right here!
Gretchen: Push! Push!
Locals help.
Rob: Sunjeet! Tell these people to help us! PUSH!
Gretchen: Get out of the way! Push!
Gretchen rides the damn thing like a queen.
Lynn/Alex are having fun getting started.
Meredith pushes and seems to be having no fun at all.
Gretchen: Get out the way!! Meredith? Meredith? We have a bad elephant!
He's exhausted.
They stop.

COMMERCIAL.
