After the recap from last week, which I'm sorry I missed, we see the last pit stop in Cambodia. Six teams including a time penalty for Terr and Sara. Nick and Starr depart first, for a flight to Delhi India, where they get a taxi to the place where they get their next clue. They are expecting confusion. They must go to a travel agency to get their flight. Dallas and his mother leave next, he discusses the difficulty of trying to talk to Starr with his mother and Nick around. Ken and Tina begin by talking about the difficulty in their relationship. Kelly and ... talk about having fun with each other. Ken and Tina having trouble because Tina's "so strong" (a nag). Everyone is arriving at the travel agent and booking their flights, I think everyone is on the same flight, as usual.
Arriving in Delhi they take off running for the taxis.
Kelly & Christy refuse Nick's advice to put on something over their shorts. He noticed some of the strange looks they were getting earlier on the plane. While they manage to get through this part of the race ok, it would have been more "polite" to consider the culture and throw on some sweat pants. They said it was too hot.
They all see cows in the street and crazy traffic. Tina argues that she knows where they are going but Ken thinks differently. It causes them some tension.
Nick & Starr get to the road block clue first. Paint the taxi after masking over the yellow. It's a small vehicle. Nick and Starr are there with Andrew and Dan and all four are working on their task pleasantly. Dallas and Toni arrive. Nick says he thinks the budding romance is cute (between Dallas and Starr). Some of the teams are still lost and can't find the place. Ken and Tina, as well as Terrence and Sara are still looking for it. Ken and Tina find it last. Getting more frustrated as they have communication problems with the taxi drivers.
Personal note: I enjoy watching but I know I would not like doing this because of the stress and frustration when running behind.
Tina is ordering Ken around while he does the masking on the taxi. In interview he says things aren't going that well, he doesn't want a lifetime of having to struggle to have a relationship.
Dallas did well coaching Toni while she did it. Terrence and Sarah are fighting while she does the task. I would not want to spend much time around some of these couples!
Dan and Andrew are first to finish the roadblock. Now they must go to the Ambassador Hotel and search the grounds for the guy that has the clue.
Andrew and Dan having navigation problems, Nick and Starr seem to be on their way. Ken & Tina had their taxi driver wait so they have a taxi when done. Terrence and Sarah are last to be done and they know they are last.
Nick and Starr arrive at the detour first. Choice launder money or launder clothes.
Create a necklace with Indian money exchanging their own money, or go to laundry shop, use charcoal heated iron to press 20 pieces of clothing.
Kelly/Christy and Andrew/Dan are laundering clothes. Dallas and Toni are doing the clothes as well. so are Nick and Starr. Terrence and Sarah chose money, Ken and Tina arrive last and choose money. Various cabs are lost as usual. Christy/Kelly are still aggravated with Nick and Starr and that they were there first.
Andrew and Dan arrive way behind on the ironing task. Ken/Tina and Terrence/Sarah are doing the money necklace. The task is in a place that is loud, and appears that it will be very complicated. Its a big wedding celebration with crazy dancing and loud music and they must give the completed necklace to the groom after getting through the crowd when they get it made. They have to get change for their money in just the right amount.
Nick and Starr finish ironing first. They must get through the confusing streets and find a landmark house. Phil says the last team "may" be eliminated. Terrence and Sarah have the right amount of money to make the necklace.
Nick and Starr arrive first at the pit stop. They each win an electric car.
They are good together. I enjoy watching them as they work through the race, and the budding romance between Starr and Dallas will be interesting to learn more about as I'm sure we will.
The frat boys find ironing to be a unique experience since they never iron.
Ken and Tina are still getting change while Terrence and Sarah are working on the necklace.
Kelly and Christy arrive as team 2.
Frat boys having a hard time ironing well enough. The crowds at the money thing are crazy. The winds blow over the frat boys stack of clothes.
The tension and frustration of being near the last takes its toll on the teams that most need to cooperate with each other. Who can survive it or avoid it is probably one reason many of us who like this show find it interesting, not to mention the travel, the customs and the cultures they experience.
The money necklace must be taken to the groom through the wild crowd. Terrence and Sarah find their groom before Ken and Tina.
Dallas and Toni are team number three.
Frat boys still ironing. I feel sorry for them because the task is so foreign to them and like most guys that age they are NOT good at it.
Terrence and Sarah arrive as team four.
I thought there was a time penalty but there is no mention of it.
Ken and Tina are wandering the street looking for a taxi.
Frat boys finally get their clue and find a taxi right away, hopefully one that knows where they are going.
Ken and Tina are fighting about getting IN the taxi. She's a pain and very demanding.
Andrew and Dan arrive as team five. They are ecstatic since they thought there were last.
Ken and Tina are last to arrive. This is a non elimination leg. The bad news is a speed bump will be encountered next time that only they have to complete. If they can't do that and still beat at least one other they will be eliminated. They both cry as they do their interview. This is the first time they have been last. The money is on Ken's mind as he told an earlier taxi drive that he may have cost him a million dollars when he got lost and finally turned them over to someone who could find the pit stop. Their relationship IS a struggle when things aren't going perfectly for them and I'm not sure I think she's worth it but we'll see if he decides to stay with her even if they lose the money.
Next weeks preview shows Tina and Kelly both losing their temper when being covered in some sort of paint being thrown at them. Both of these women are probably a bit too "foo foo" for this upcoming task.
