Two Hour Lead, Thanks To Moron


Are you sure there are no earlier flights to Turkey?


It was a really gratifying episode of The Amazing Race last night. Minus knowing that it was most likely going to be a non elimination round the whole time.

Rob's cockiness & snarkiness tipped off Uchenna & Joyce to double check on an earlier flight to Turkey that they most likely never would of found. While Rob was calling them stupid and saying they have no clue etc, they were booking themselves and Meredith & Gretchen on a 2 hour earlier flight to Turkey. It was a satisfying moment in a very frustrating season.

It made me ill how rudely Rob, Amber, Ron & Kelly treated their "guide" Sanjay. I mean this guy helps them for probably 18 hours for free and they hardly even say bye to him! Total jerks.

Uchenna & Joyce did a great job and speeded through all of their challenges. The fact that they have now come in first twice and still no prize is outrageous!

I thought for sure that Rob & Amber were going to win a trip. Thank God they didn't.
And Ron standing in the tower looking over while Rob & Amber were on the mat was hilarious. Where did you think the key was, in the sky?

Meredith & Gretchen are still hanging in there. Meredith looks like he's limping quite a bit and Gretchen made it up the rope ladder which was great but I swear she cannot keep quiet for one minute. It's either screeching or she's making really odd faces. Still it is impressive that they are still racing.

Oh yea, I forgot to add the POW bit.
It was a pretty stupid statement. She was obviously hurt since he was basically planning his future without her in front of her.

I have been guilty of saying some pretty outrageous things when I've been hurt so I can't judge too harshly.

That's true.

I definitely think I could refrain from making myself look like a complete jackass.
