Clearly with the odds being a non elimination its smart to take a penalty as opposed to getting so ill that it stays with you.

THough of course Nick might just be hoping that its an elimination leg as well, who knows.

Are Nick & Vicki Punk Rockers.

Nick wants to quit, Vicki is tired but doesn't want to quit.  Nick is pretty certain that they quitting.  Talks about a 6 hour penalty.  No sleep in two days, no food today, not worth it.

Nick is sleeping, Vicki is still looking and pissed at Nick.

Screaming women at Mat.  More screaming at Team number 3.

Your still wasting your time, your the hardest headed women int eh world.  Its 4am get me out of here.

What happened to 24 hour penalty????

Nick & Vicki you are the last team to arrive, sorry to tell you this is a non elimination leg,  6 hour penalty, speed bump, and already a long ways back.

Vicki is my hero
The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move

Nick is pathetic.

Feel so sorry for Vicki, she is such a tough competitor.

I'm not surprised Nick & Vicki quit -- I predicted it.  I am surprised they quit over the Detour and that the penalty was 6 hours!  I thought it was 24 hours!

Then again, maybe it's just as well for Nick & Vicki.  Imagine how hard it would be to recover from a 24 hour penalty!  A 6-hour one isn't impossible to recover from -- it's just almost impossible.

However, since Vicki said she had to do the Roadblock, I'm guessing the RB limit is back on 6.

Cool task though.

Hopefully flights will make their disadvantage less miserable.

I love Vicki, but Nick in final 3 would be a disgrace. Just put them out of their misery with a super late flight (and no bunching) please.

BTW, who said the title?  Claire?  Or Vicki?  It has to be one of those two -- Nat and Thomas had no problems with the food.

While I don't think Nick wanting to quit is disgusting, as many racers over the years have reached a plateau where they couldn't go any further, I was more upset about his talking to her at the start of the leg then any behavior later.

Hell we have had a bunch of racers quit before even trying tasks, let alone after being this far back on a leg, where you know the chances are you aren't going to be the team that wins.

Oh and just a note, I could only judge this episode by sound, so there could be a huge amount of visual evidence on people's attitude both good and bad that I couldn't judge.

What I think made this quitting so pathetic was Nick refusing to give a damn and even acknowledge Vicki's tremendous and valiant effort and guts at the roadblock. Your girlfriend just fought her heart out at a task and you can't even be bothered to look around for a number on a boat? That's pretty pathetic.  (:;)
