Previously on The Amazing Race...

6 teams continued racing through Italy.

At the detour, Brenchel used the U-Turn on Dave & Connor to hold onto their lead. Dave & Connor were forced to U-Turn Leo & Jamal. They apologized to the Afghanimals and worked together at the detour. Dave & Connor continued to fume and confronted Brenchel at the roadblock.

Brenchel won the battle but Dave & Connor plan to win the war. The Globetrotters were eliminated from the race.

5 teams remain... Who will be eliminated next?

We're in Orvieto, Italy, an amazing feat of architecture built on the cliffs and it's start of this Leg.

Brenchel depart 1st at 6:13 AM and must travel across the Swiss Alps to Switzerland by train to William Tell's place.
Cowboys depart 2nd and explain they're only focusing on themselves.
Leo & Jamal depart 3rd and explain their record setting UTurns.
Father/Son and country depart 4th and 5th and they try to be the moralists, Flo-style.

The Cowboys can't find the train station and are going back into their car.

Brendon & Rachel depart 1st at 6:13 AM. Make your way to Switzerland. Catch a train from Rome to Chiasso. Drive to Altdorf and wait for the fictional character, William Tell. Brenchel defend their U-Turn choice.

Jet & Cord depart at 7:23 AM. They're glad they stayed out of the drama.

Leo & Jamal depart at 7:34 AM. They survived 3 U-Turns. They don't hold anything against Dave & Connor. They want Dave & Connor and Caroline & Jennifer in the final 3.

Dave & Connor depart at 7:44 AM.

Caroline & Jennifer depart at 7:45 AM. Both of them don't like how Brenchel used the U-Turn. "Why would you U-Turn someone with great hair?" omg lol.

Cowboys need directions to the train station. Brenchel are the only ones on the train so far... Afghanimals, Country and Dave & Connor all trying to get on the train... And they manage to get on. They all see Brenchel there.

Dave & Connor, Caroline & Jennifer and Leo & Jamal all super happy to catch Brenchel.

Brenchel don't think Leo & Jamal have any beef with them... Other 3 teams trash talking Brenchel.

Cowboys finally are at the train station. They get 11:20 train ride?

Wow. Still more trash talking. And now a final 3 alliance agreement? How dumb lol.

First 4 teams geting into the Fords. Proceeding to Altdorf. Seems like a super long drive. Lots of people at the street?

Jet & Cord leave at 11:12 AM to Chiasso, about 2 hrs I think?!

The accidental alliance make fun of Brenchel and leave the train with Brenchel!

Teams must now drive to Altdorf for the annual Christmas festival while waiting for Willie... the next morning. Bittersweetness :conf: :gaah:

Final 3 teams all are at the statue. Have to wait until sunrise.

Yuck. Final 3 alliance is nasty. Caroline or Jennifer say that they're calling their alliance the "Accidental Alliance." YUCK. Brenchel say they don't need friends.

Cowboys arrive at 12:34 AM to find out they have to wait until sunrise.

At sunrise, teams are waiting at the statue. Drive to Lucerne. Proceed to Chapel Bridge. Funny confessional with Leo & Jamal. :funny: Afghanimals say that they have an internal GPS.

AA (Accidental Alliance) all driving together. Brenchel turn hoping to try to trick AA but AA continues driving straight.

Teams are looking for the clue. Brenchel are at the wrong bridge...? Yuck. The other 4 teams are super pumped about Brenchel not getting the clue before them. Proceed to Schweizerhof Hotel. Now all 4 teams are hurrying to leave before "Brenchels" appears lol. :funny:

Brenchel arrive at the bridge and get the clue. No one is around. They know they're last right now.

Brenchel trying to get directions. They're super stressed out that they're in last right now.

First 4 teams are at the hotel. Teams have to clean up a room trashed by rockstars to a Swiss standard. Teams pick a room and they all get dressed in an outfit. IT'S BRENCHEL, NOT BRENCHELS.

The rooms are a huge disaster, lol. There's an example room that you have to replicate. Dave & Connor visit that room.

First four teams cleaning...

Brenchel (not plural!) have arrived.

Dave: "The Brenchels have just got here." Omg they're all obsessed with Brenchel or something.

Lots of cleaning going on. Cowboys are getting their room checked by Helga. Cowboys are missing toilet paper and a fruit setup thing? Afghanimals are missing stuff too. Caroline & Jennifer are missing a bunch of stuff. Dave & Connor are very close. They're just missing 1 thing.

Cowboys getting another room check. Closer, but something wrong with the toilet paper. 1 mistake for Afghanimals too. 3 mistakes for Caroline & Jennifer. Helga is very strict. Brenchel are getting a check.

Brenchel have 1 mistake with a lamp thing. Cowboys realized their toilet paper mistake. Afghnimals realize their lamp mistake too.

Cowboys finish the task first. Jet gives Helga a hug. Helga seems reluctant lol. Proceed to Swiss Museum of Transport. Afghanimals are approved. Dave & Connor are approved too. Afghanimals are waiting for Dave & Connor. Ew. Caroline & Jennifer finished too. Brenchel are still there. CAROLINE & JENNIFER ARE SAYING BRENCHELS TOO. WHAT IS WRONG.

Teams have to figure out the artifact they're looking for is a drill to dig a tunnel? Teams have to answer that question correctly.

Cowboys knew it and they're allowed to enter the museum. Use the numbers on the road signs and the formula in their clue to calculate the model year of their Mustang. When it's correct, they'll receive their next clue.

Afghanimals don't know the answer. Dave & Connor gain entry into the museum.  Dave & Connor tell Afghanimals. Afghanimals gain entry. Dave & Connor tell Caroline & Jennifer.

Every team except Brenchel trying to do the calculation. Back at the hotel, Brenchel have gotten their clue.

Teams can't seem to find the signs. Cowboys find 1 of their cities.

Brenchel arrive at the museum. Rachel trying to guess what the artifact is used for.

All teams are starting to find their cities... Cowboys getting a check. They get it right. Route Info: Drive to Oberrickenbach. Dave & Connor finish too.

Brenchel finally figure out the artifact and they're working on the signs too. Caroline & Jennifer see Brenchel here. Afghanimals are done.

Caroline & Jennifer don't get it. Looks like the Accidental Alliance can't help you. :snicker:

Brenchel finish. Seems like they made up some time.

Cowboys looking for milk tanker. Dave & Connor and Cowboys find the cluebox. Roadblock: Choose a dog with a cart. Transport empty milk containers to a farmer using 1 of 2 gondolas. Exchange empty containers for full ones. Deliver it back to the milk tanker.

Caroline & Jennifer are behind Afghanimals. Afghanimals think they see Brenchel's car. Brenchel have caught up. Brenchel are making fun of the Accidental Alliance. :funny:

Everybody now at the roadblock.

Connor is in a gondola. Cord is in another gondola.

Roadblock: Use a cart and a dog to transport two empty milk canisters to a refill station to trade for two full milk cans and transport them back to earn the next clue.

Teams have gotten their dogs.

Cord can't tell which gondola is faster. Connor is glad that his dad didn't do this challenge because you have to do a little walk in the snow.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Caroline falls trying to carry milk tanks up an icy hill.

Connor gets his 2 milk containers but it's really heavy. Cord exchanging his milk tanks. Brendon and Leo both in gondolas. Connor is losing arm strength. Brendon gets out and Connor gets into the gondola. Connor thinks that he might win the leg. HAHAHAHA BRENDON WROTE TAR24 WINNERS IN THE GONDOLA. Connor sees it and erases it lol.

Brendon gets the full milk tanks. Leo gets out and Cord gets in.

Caroline sees Connor going down the gondola.

Connor is delivering the milk tanks. Cord is delivering it too. Cord's dog is quicker than Connor's. Cord finishes the roadblock 1st. Pit stop: Top of Mount Titlis. Have to drive and then take a gondola up.

Dave & Connor finish the roadblock right after. Race between Cowboys and Dave & Connor. Afghanimals finish roadblock in 3rd. They don't want Brenchel following them.

Caroline struggling. :snicker: Brenchel out of the roadblock in 4th.

Afghanimals think that they can outrun the other teams. Afghanimals speaking in different language. All 3 teams are running like mad looooool. Teams have no clue where they're running. Dave & Connor are running a different way than Afghanimals and Cowboys.

SERIOUSLY? DAVE & CONNOR ARE IN 1ST? SERIOUSLY?????? :res: :res: :res: Dave & Connor win 2015 Mustangs.

Cowboys are team #2. Afghanimals are team #3. All 3 teams are at the pit stop. Phil brings up the division.

Caroline struggling still. Caroline... IT'S BRENCHEL NOT BRENCHELS. Caroline mocks Brenchel for not being in the Accidental Alliance lol.

Brenchel are team #4. They say they'll win the race with no friends.

Caroline & Jennifer are the last team to arrive... But it's a non-elimination leg. Ew. Ew. Ew. They're still in the race. Ew. Ew. Ew.

Pit Stop:
1st - Dave & Connor
2nd - Jet & Cord
3rd - Leo & Jamal
4th - Brendon & Rachel
5th - Caroline & Jennifer (NEL)

Teams take the bulls by the horn. What is happening. Teams are ramming into each other? Looks like Rachel fell. Maybe Brendon too? Connor has a close shave. The Afghanimals finally turn the tables... ANOTHER DOUBLE U-TURN. "Who do we U-Turn?"

Yeah, I wonder who you're going to pick. :res: :res: :res:

I could've sworn that one of the teams Dave and Connor read the last clue as "Search for Phil at 10,000 and check in for your next clue", so I was surprised when it didn't end up being a "keep racing" leg.

Hello, just joined the board. My wife and I can't believe it is another non-elimination leg. It seems there have been more of them this season than before. Feel kind of ripped off after getting our hopes up for the leeches to finally lose only to have the whole thing be for naught. Look forward to conversing on here about the show.

I have a weird feeling that the Afghanimals might be the last at the U-turn board and their question is rethorical. If I'm not wrong Brenchel and Dave&Connor could not use the U-turn any more, I don't think the cowboys would use (maybe if someone would u-turn them) and I don't see the country girls in the front, just don't

Honestly the best episode of the season.

Like a few have said, the answer-sharing is really frustrating.

I swear, the teams have been EXTREMELY close this season... they're literally at every task together.

The great amount of tasks is what I really liked about this leg. Tbh, if more legs were like this, I wouldn't mind the Detour being left out a few times. Or why not just have a Route Info task with a Detour and Roadblock regularly? Something I've wanted for a while.. ughhh.

It would not surprise me that they U-turn the Cowboys. I could see them doing that. Knowing full well that the next team will U-turn Brachel.

I have a weird feeling that the Afghanimals might be the last at the U-turn board and their question is rethorical. If I'm not wrong Brenchel and Dave&Connor could not use the U-turn any more, I don't think the cowboys would use (maybe if someone would u-turn them) and I don't see the country girls in the front, just don't
There are the same number of NELs as usual for a 12 leg race with 11 teams. (8 eliminations plus 3 NELs plus final leg.)
As to the U-Turn, we don't know whether any team are ahead of the Afganimals at the Double U-Turn. for instance the Cowboys could be ahead and decided not to use it.

LEG 9 (Italy --> Switzerland) EPISODE ANALYSIS:
So many race fails this episode including Caroline falling flat on her country back in the milk can Roadblock, Dave almost injuring his hip... or Achilles tendon... while jumping the railing at the Mt. Titlis Gondola ticket line (KARMA! :funny:), and Brenchel's awkward cut to commercials in Lucerne just to mention a few. Alas, this is the first real Leg of TAR24! From the altitude changes, task diversity, and Leg longevity, this became one of those real all-stars episodes. Time to "let it go" for breaking down this Swiss majesty.

ROUTE INFO #1: (Clean trashy hotel room)
Initially, I wanted to despise this task so much, but flashing back, this happened to be a really challenging task even if the editing made it look easier. Helga is one strict roomskeeper and her intellect about hospitality lit up this task. For the detail seekers, this was a task that challenged their sight. I wonder if this was a Detour option though.
ROUTE INFO SCORE: 8/10

ROUTE INFO #2 (Calculate vehicle model year)
I thought this task was okay, but it was vulnerable for the sharing of answers which I really can't stand on the race. It was partially challenging because of the daunting amount of highway signage, but you only had to look for the given cities name. If I was designing this task, I would have made teams search for the distance between two cities using only the signs and a map of Switzerland. That way, it would be too idiotic for a team to do a task for another team.
ROUTE INFO SCORE: 6/10

ROADBLOCK: (Who is ready to be milked to oblivion?)
The milk trade-off task was pretty generic, nothing very interesting about the task except for the dogs. However, the scenery of the Swiss Alps were simply spectacular! I would love to see the curves and snowed trees in the wintertime. Just gorgeous!
ROADBLOCK SCORE: 7/10

OTHER SCORES:
LEG DIFFICULTY: 7/10
TEAM DRAMA: 9/10
RACE FAILS: 12/10
OVERALL SCORE: 8/10

I'm surprised the 2nd Double U-Turn is coming so late. When the first one appeared in Orvieto, I assumed it would be the only one since it was later in the season than it has been lately (~Leg 4 or 5).

That's why I said MIGHT ;D. Their tone was just not so "happy-we-could-decide-who-goes-home!" which I think they would use in that situation. Honestly, If they were there first they would probably U-turn Brenchel of the cowboys depending who was closer to them.

It's pretty funny to me as well. He's seen plenty of people older than Dave come in and not complain during the race. Sure Bill & Cathi were upset with Ernie & Cindy but they didn't behave like Dave & Connor.

There isn't enough time for Phil to be briefed on everything the teams do during the leg, but he gets a lot to work with from production on site at the check-in mat. Hence, his questions to teams on the mat. He was obviously told about the alliance beforehand since he asked about it when the first three teams arrived.

The Cowboys are staying out of the line of fire of the other four teams, which is smart since it means they aren't the targets of the other teams. They're most likely couldn't figure out Brenchel's U-Turn strategy in the last leg, either, and they had no reason not to be cooperative about staying ahead of them once they got to the William Tell statute.

(I've already calculated the placement averages and trends, but I probably won't get them up until sometime Monday. More bad weather is coming in tonight, and I think I'll have less worry about connections tomorrow than I had earlier today.)

And that's why Bill & Cathi deserve to be in all-stars more than any of the teams! Plus, they hold the highest placement for a U-Turn in the U.S. original. If only TAR24 was filmed during the summer...

I think right now the remaining five teams are just trying to emulate the strategy of the team that won their previous season(s):

Jet & Cord are trying to stay under the radar like Dan & Jordan and Kisha & Jen

Dave & Connor and Caroline & Jennifer are trying to float to the final three with their alliance

Brenchel are channeling their inner cutthroat Davechel

Leo & Jamal are trying to accumulate positive karma like Jamy

So I guess we'll see which strategy works the best by the finale.

Overall this is a good leg. The location is cool, literally and figuratively.
The roadblock... it's okay, because it's a physical one. At least it wasn't as dull as leg 1's roadblock.
Others:
~9th leg and still no proper intro. :res: I was expecting the modified intro with scenes of the teams racing.
~The cowboys caught up on an equalizer. It was more fun watching them catch up without equalizers.
~The detail-requiring ARI was great!
~The Ford task was good and pretty cool.
~Brendon putting that message on the gondola was unnecessary IMO. Connor taking it off was also unnecessary, but oh well.
~The three MM teams who lead the Malaysian legs were on a footrace for first. That was nice to see. :)
~The nightmare for me: The NEL. :tantrum CaroJen were spared for the second time. They only got this far by alliances. Same applies to their original season. I can't believe they arrived last on NELs. :gaah: The 2nd EP begging in China and the TAR22 U-turn alliance were the unlikable moves I've seen from them. I think it's their strategy, how they play the game, but I really don't think they deserve to win. :gaah: These two have been going far by alliances, and they get spared by a NEL or a huge lead from the back of the pack. Such lucky blondes. :stare

I hate the fact that Brenchel is suddenly a pluralised thing

THIS SO MUCH. It isn't Brenchel & Brenchel so it isn't plural like AfghanS, CowboyS etc

I believe the reasons Teams are say Brenchel's is because of Brendan and Rachel's shirts.  Brenchel should have had members of this group approve their shirts before they left on the Race.
