I thought that about Jennifer last night too (why don't you just go back and get the clue?), including the part where I was sad that they got eliminated, considering I found them so annoying the first part of the race!

She was depending on another team to share their clue once/if they came?? That was just a very bad choice. They deserved to lose this leg of the race. 15K cash prize for this leg of the race was very nice! No bad feeling for the boys out running them to win, especially since it ended up being such a great prize.

I would love to know exactly how long did Jennifer wait before going back to the start of the roadblock to get the clue?

It would have been kind of intimdiating, when you consider it - you are a woman in a totally foreign country and you don't know what to do next...she seemed to freeze up for a while.

The speed bump this time was a lot harder than previous ones. I know the girls had to wash an elephant and can't remember the other but I do remember thinking at the time it was pretty easy.

The speed bump this time was a lot harder than previous ones ----- IF ------ you know how to do those puzzles it would have been pretty quick. Regarding uturns.... Not sure if I like having any one team's fate be directly controlled by the whim of another team.

Is it just me or... We saw shots of the bus filled to capacity and spilling out into the aisles. Then we saw Amani and Marcus show up supposedly last asking if they will be able to get on. Then we see Marcus and Amani get on and head to the back where there were several empty seats. There was no way the bus was filled up when Amani and Marcus got there although the editting seemed to imply that it was.

I thought there was a line outside the bus in which they were standing?

I agree IF you know how to do those puzzles, it would be much quicker. I happen to like doing ones like that. Still, compared to the other speed bumps, it was more difficult either way.

Yes, the bus looked pack and then they got seats. I'm guessing it was just to keep us in suspense. It did seem that they line-jumped ahead of people - he told the ticket guy he needed to get on that bus. Maybe he offered a tip? I used to love doing those speedbump puzzles as a kid, but can see how it could be time consuming and frustrating for some.

He told the guy 'my friends are on that bus', so don't know if that helped or not. But yeah, they definitely line-jumped.

I can never do those puzzles! I would have been so frustrated.

I wonder when the next bus was running? Seems like with so many people wanting that one, they might have put on a second bus, so just let the "friends" sit together. I'm sure some of the teams were hoping fervently that A/M would miss the bus.

Whether they line jumped or not, previous shots from before their arrival showed the bus as standing room only. In fact they went so far as to show a big pile of stuff in one corner. I loved that village they were in and the people likely are used to tourists so they didn't balk at line jumping. But that really wasn't my point. My point was the editting, full to not so full.

I thought it showed reserved seat tickets. They only had one dollar for this leg of the race.

Another Sunday's TV schedule ruined, thanks to Sunday Night Football running overtime AGAIN. Why can't these idiots tell the time and why is it on CBS anyway? Isn't that what ESPN and all the other 'sports' channels are for? It's just nonsense how they mess up millions of DVD's, TIVO's, and non-football fans every week. I hate football now even more than I did yesterday...the last bastion of male chauvinism indeed! I'm PO'd, scunnered, and itching for a fight, preferably with a CBS exec. Yes, tonight I'm armed and dangerous. Be warned. There will be no prisoners taken. You are so funny Holly!! Thanks for the laugh

No, they can't move football to ESPN because that would screw up my recording of NASCAR and Tony Stewart's domination of the Chase races!

From my fav exit interview site. It answers the question of how long Jennifer waited. Silly girl! Exclusive: Justin Young and Jennifer Young discuss 'The Amazing Race' http://realitytvworld.com/news/exclusive-justin-young-and-jennifer-young-discuss-the-amazing-race-12849.php

So.. that is too bad that they got hit by misinformation with that driver saying he did not have to be paid and also that they did read that sign but had the extra Taiwanese money and forgot that.

So true, Sea. Also, if she hadn't waited an hour at the RB before heading back, they would still be in the race.

I just have to say I HATE that kind of puzzle! Those things give me a headache. I felt really sorry for Amani and Marcus, but was glad they were able to finish it. So glad they weren't eliminated. I like them! Had to laugh when Marcus said, "That's what I used to say in the NFL. 'Get out of the way, Dolphins!'"

I love Marcus but I worry that he seems to tire very easily. I would think they get a physical before the show. He even mentioned practicing something this week, like the bike or something. But he seems fit and shouldn't always be so fatigued.
