Why do I have a feeling this is either a non-elimination leg or an uber-leg?

Back with Vyxsin having trouble getting out of the tank. Finally she realizes she needs to focus and thinks about her Kent's Dad and was able to get out.

Gary/Mallory searching for where to go as are Amanda/Kris.

Kris and Mallory hurrying their partners along.

Gary/Mallory are the first team to arrive. They hug. They have won Express Pass. However, they are still racing... Phil hands them the next clue. Mallory still standing there taking it in and Phil tells her not to dilly-dally. She keeps talking and he tells her, "Stop talking and go!"

Amanda & Kris are Team #2. They get next clue and head off.

Kisha & Jen are Team #3 and get next clue.

Zev & Justin headed off to their skiffs. Margie and Cara have their codes wrong tho so they have to head off.

Flight Time & Big Easy don't have their full code but decided to follow the other teams so they wouldn't fall behind. They ask Zev & Justin for the code and they give it to them. They say the Globetrotters are their boys. They get the clue as they whisper it so Margie & Cara won't overhear it. Margie & Cara asking Zev & Justin but they say they already helped one team. They say they don't really know those teams so they aren't going to help them.

Zev & Justin and Flight Time & Big Easy getting their skiff clues (funny stuff here with Flight Time & Big Easy having trouble balancing on skiff).

Christina agrees to help Margie/Lucie and Jaime/Cara with clue in exchange for being led to the right area. They all say it one right after another.

Jet & Cord get to the right part but they don't have the secret code and have to go back. Margie & Luke give Vyxsin & Kent the right code as they get on their skiffs.

Jaime & Cara tip over with their skiff. They don't panic but worried about their time, "I hate to rush you boys but we're in a race."

Mel & Mike also in their skiffs (I missed them giving their clue to the commodore.). All these teams getting their clues.

Kent & Vyxsin in 10th place as they get their clue from the commodore.

Jet & Cord trying to figure out what they're missing. Zev & Justin are Team #4.

Flight Time & Big Easy are Team #5

Jaime & Cara are Team #6

Margie & Luke are Team #7

Ron & Christina are Team #8

Mel & Mike are Team #9

Kent & Vyxsin heading to Shelly Beach.

Jet & Cord don't get their code right and have to go back to the flags.

Kent & Vyxsin are Team #10. "There is some bad news..." Vyxsin, "What'd we do wrong?" Phil: "You're still racing." Vyxsin: "That's not bad news!"

And as Jet & Cord have no idea what they're doing we get a ... "To Be Continued"

Thank goodness - here's hoping Jet & Cord get it together - they are ONE of my favorite teams!

Next week: Will the Cowboys crack the code? As Ron can't stop nagging, the Race takes a toll on Mel.

not a bad 1st ep, especially the Roadblock task- and the HD is terrific if you have it...

It was great to see all the teams again, with the exception of Margie/Luke and Jaime/Cara.

I don't mind any of them Lexie- which is a rarity for "all-star" versions of shows (I know Jamie/Cara have some rotten manners- but I've seen Jamie's Playboy pictures too- what can I say, I'm a guy )

Now I'll have a hard time picking teams for the Philimination Game - I have several favorite teams......

I know lexie- I should be better than that, but boys have to be boys sometimes...but it was interesting that J/C flipped over the boat and FT/BE didn't..

That's fine Wilson... but the first time Jaime goes into her "ugly American" act and belittles someone because they don't speak English, I'm going to give you a big raspberry.

Good show to begin the new season. Jet/Cord don't seem to have the fire they had in their first season. Old alliances seemed to carry the day with Zev/Justin & Flight Time/Big Easy...also Jaime/Cara and Margie/Luke. I wonder how long that will last?

As soon and Mel mentioning his age was aired, I figured he'd get hurt or somehow his age would be a factor when they got eliminated. Hope it's not serious.

I can't understand how Jet unraveled the first part of the puzzle but not the last! It seems like one long dis-encription to me -

However, I am hoping that they get themselved unscrambled and on the way in time that the U-turn will benefit them in the up-coming leg

Like Lexie, I found it great to see all but two of the teams.

I hope Mel is okay. I love him and his son Mike.

I agree with Lycan that Jet & Cord don't have the same fire but I'm hoping they catch it soon.
