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 · « **Reply #1 on:** April 19, 2005, 08:14:16 PM »

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 · « **Reply #2 on:** April 19, 2005, 08:18:26 PM »

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 · « **Reply #3 on:** April 19, 2005, 08:20:42 PM »

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

puddin · « **Reply #4 on:** April 19, 2005, 08:21:47 PM »

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.

puddin · « **Reply #6 on:** April 19, 2005, 08:29:44 PM »

Gretchen is killing me ((^

Meredith: How far we going? Unbelievable.
Gretchen: HELP US!
Ron: Stop! Which way, Kelly?
(As if she knows?)
Rob/Amber are both on ground level, pushing, as are Lynn/Alex.
Gretchen: WE NEED BIG PEOPLE!
Damn. Maybe if you'd get your fat a$$ off!

In cab, Uchenna/Joyce head toward the FF.

Rob: Push! Push! You see them? It's tough organizing Indian labor!
Gretchen: Psh! How far is this place!

Joyce, reading: Traditional good-fortune ritual. I hope it's not a head shaving.
Uchenna ... lol

CLUE, Ron/Kelly: Travel by ricksha to Deora Krishi Farm.
Phil: Local festival site. Next clue is there.
Rob/AMber get the clue in 2nd.
Sunjeet abandons them temporarily but they convince him to ride along.

Uchenna/Joyce arrive.
Uchenna: Is there a wise man here?
Man: Temple. Over there.
They went to the wrong hill, and must climb some stairs.

Lynn/Alex finish the elephant push in 3rd.
Meredith/Gretchen pooped, almost in fourth, but stop.
Kelly yelling out of the ricksha: HELP THEM! (In other words, she wants someone to help Meredith push Gretchen!)

Amber: At least we have Sonjeet (or Sondu, or whoever) in our car!

U/J go up the wrong set of steps and head back down.

M: It's okay. You had a good ride.

Rickshas arrive in rapid sequence.
Rob/Amber, CLUE:
ROADBLOCK. Who's ready to steer the team in the right direction?

Amber will ride the camel cart.
Rob: This oughtta be interesting.
Amber: Why are we going backwards (when she's pushing the other way?)

Ron/Kelly arrive.
Kelly will ride.
Rob and Ron look on.

Rob: I don't see my girl. This is not good.
Amber: Go camel! Go camel!
Ed. note: I ate camel in Africa.
mmmcamelmmm

Lynn will ride.
Meredith will ride.

Joyce: See down there?
Uchenna: Yeah! There we go!
Joyce: This is it!
Uchenna: Here he is.
Joyce: Uh-oh. Scissors.

CLUE, Uchenna: To win FF, each of you must have your head shaved.
Joyce, throwing her scarf away, disgusted: I knew it. I freakin' knew it!
Uchenna: You want to have your head shaved, honey?
Joyce: Let's GO!

Joyce, crying: I knew this was coming. It's just hair. It'll come back.
Uchenna, hugging her: I'm just sorry.
Joyce: It's only outward, right?

Question: How come boyfriends Lynn and Alex were the only team to come in first on a leg of The Amazing Race and not win a dream vacation? — Eric

Ausiello: I was wondering the same thing! But before I could tell my assistant, "Fetch me an ice-cold Snapple and, when you're done with that, get GLAAD on the phone!", the Philiminator went and denied pit-stop victors Ron and Kelly a trip to Europe last week. "Not every first-place team wins a prize," a CBS rep gently reminds me, adding, "The prize distribution is predetermined

Sure did. Hopefully there will be a vid cap of the license plate of the vehicle that was in front of R&K's taxi. That should help ID the country.

I slowed my tape down and can't make out the license plate on my video ..I guess we wait for the vidcaps
NEXT TIME ON .. THE AMAZING RACE:

Phil: Rob sizes up his competition ...
Airport, Rob conf: Uchenna/Joyce don't know who to turn to. I mean, they're asking Meredith/Gretchen for advice now. The blind leading the blind.

Phil: ... and Kelly confronts Ron.
Taxi, Kelly: Your patterns in life show you don't make commitments.
Ron: I committed to the military.
Ron: You got out of that one.
Ron: How'd I get out of that one?
Kelly: By being a P.O.W.!

Texan · « **Reply #38 on:** April 20, 2005, 08:43:03 AM »

I thought about lynn and alex...does that count? I put non elimination......

I can not believe she shaves her head and NO PRIZE!! That sucks!!! I so hope they win. I was crying last night when she shaved her head. Uchenna was so supportive.... My DH was like WHAT?

I said well maybe for 1 million...but I do not know.Sadly she did that to be first...and they bunch up at the airport! Such a sacrifice and no big lead.

Too much bunching happening...it is almost like just get 1st to win a prize...as long as you are not last you are okay.

Phill keeps making comments about about G/M which leads me to believe they will be final 3. He has made all kinds of comments about how they keep going and hoe they keep lasting....I think it is foreshadowing. Good For them if they do make it.

I also get the feeling that Romber will not make the final 3....I kept thinking they would, but lst night they showed them getting along great with R/K . . . how they made some friends. the whole show they have talked about they have no friends on the show . .. they are putting them in a new light. Plus the comment Ron made we get along but when it is race time it is the game...I think Ron and Kelly barely beat Rob and Amber in an elimination round

rmax · « **Reply #39 on:** April 20, 2005, 11:09:49 AM »

Did anyone else notice how frantic Rob was during last night's leg? That's when mistakes can be made. Now that the competition is heating up, I hope that's what does him in, his own mistakes, not some slow taxi driver. I can hope, can't I?
