AND WE ARE LIVE!!!
Previously on TAR, seven teams flew from Berlin, Germany to Almaty, Kazakhstan! At the DT, Gary & DeAngelo battled while Leo & Alana were ground. The Yield was finally used to get rivals back. Hung & Chee had struggled to break bad habits. In the end, Will & James won the leg and got some big news (MEGA LEG) while Leo & Alana couldn't overcome the Yield. 6 teams remain, who'll be eliminated next?

Will & James are first to depart at 10:15 PM. Fly to Hyderabad, India!

Phil describes Hyderabad as a cyber-city. Will & James are anxious for the mega-leg. They mention they have a Yield in their back pocket while convincing Kaylynn & Haley to use theirs. Riley & Madisson leave 2nd in 10:28pm and ask "what is a cyber-city?". They mention their volleyball profession. Hung & Chee depart in 3rd at 10:50 PM, discussing they won't tell anything to DeAngelo & Gary after what happened last leg. Kaylynn & Haley depart 5th with Eswar & Aparna leaving in 6th. They discuss spending their time in India and are stoked for the leg.

Teams arrive and are in a mad dash!

We come back to Eswar & Aparna first to arrive. Smog test 3 rickshaws by flagging them down to check-up at mobile pollution vans to receive their next clue. DeAngelo & Gary and Will & James follow them to the clue box. "What's a rickshaw?" / "Are you a rickshaw?"

Kaylynn & Haley are the 4th to arrive while Will yells at James to get out of the street. :funny: Struggling all around.

Hung & Chee are last to arrive and quickly start the task.

Kaylynn & Haley lose a rickshaw while Will & James, Eswar & Aparna, and De & Gary get their first one. They enter in details and pipe the exhaust system to receive a certificate of inspection.

Hung & Chee get their first rickshaw while volleyballers are struggling. "How do we get them to come?"

Eswar & Aparna and Will & James go get another car. DeAngelo & Gary continue to have minor communication riffs. Kaylynn & Haley get their first rickshaw as well as the volleyballers.

Hung & Chee, Riley & Madisson, and Kay & Hay move on to the second round.

Eswar & Aparna reveal they had an advantage of calling rickshaws "autos" instead of "taxis" or "tuk tuks" to better alert drivers. Chaos all around of people jumping into autos and riding them to the mobile testing van. Kaylynn & Haley are struggling to gain attention. Boyfriends, siblings, Panthers, volleyballers, and Hung & Chee get their 2nd autos checked.

Kaylynn & Haley get their 2nd one done while the others are on their final autos.

DETOUR: Food App or Number Trap. In Food App, teams have to use Swiggy food delivery to transport food to a specific address to receive their next clue. In Number Trap, teams must grab a series of binary numbers to unscramble their next clue.

Eswar & Aparna, De & Gary, Hung & Chee, and Will & James move on to the Detour. Riley & Madisson and Kaylynn & Haley are behind.

Hung & Chee are stuck in traffic.

The binary code option is at T Hub. Teams begin to arrive. Catch all the highlighted 0 and 1 and decode the code. Eswar & Aparna believe this task was meant for them. Game begins for these four teams.

Hung & Chee arrive at the binary code Detour while Riley & Madisson finish the autos. They choose Number Trap. Kaylynn & Haley are the only ones to choose the Swiggy Detour.

Volleyballers talk about the drama they encountered with DeAngelo & Gary. ??? I didn't see any of that.

DeAngelo & Gary are first to grab all their highlighted numbers and move on to the binary decoding. It's definitely super difficult. Aparna reveals even though she is a software engineer, she is not a gamer. Hung & Chee are struggling.

Meanwhile, Kaylynn & Haley are lost because their taxi driver is unresponsive. Their driver pulls over to ask for directions and they are desperate for a savior.

Commercial break.

We return to another episode of Kaylynn & Haley's Taxi Driver Misfortunes. "Do you know how close we are or how far we are?" "...."

Meanwhile, Will & James get their binary code. Hung tries a sweeping motion to capture the highlights while Riley & Madisson start the binary Detour option. Boyfriends and De & Gary get part of their code. Riley & Madisson make a quick recovery and get their code. Eswar & Aparna move on too. Hung & Chee are getting tired.

"You can find the clue in the fourth floor bunker." Will & James try to find their clue.

They anticipate to Yield the blondes. Hung & Chee continue the task as they struggle to gather all the numbers. Riley & Madisson are struggling with the binary code. Panthers and Eswar & Aparna get to the Bunker to get their clues.

Will & James get to the Yield and choose to Yield Kaylynn & Haley. "We're trying to make our own luck. No hard feelings."

ROADBLOCK: Who's ready to flip their lid? One team member must search for turbans with a virtual reality app to search for 6 out of 18 unique possibilities, then travel to the floor above and match the digital turbans with reality to receive their next clue.

Kaylynn & Haley are still lost.

Also Hung and Chee struggling is terrifying
