Julie - he was imitating Mary's voice talking to David and made some comments about Mary wanting to find a Burger King. Basic "Look I'm a country hill-billy" remarks...questioning their intelligence and lack of culture.

Thanks Nick. I did laugh when he fell for the phone trick. But I KNEW that was a bad idea, cuz it would result in him finding a real cell phone to borrow.

Speaking of which...I thought you could no longer use Cell Phones to make reservations. Didn't a couple get penalized a few seasons ago for using a phone to make reservations? Seems like I remember Lake in the beginning of last season stopping to make reservations but then he had to cancel them.

And Peter saying "I like who I am." He's obviously not willing to compromise for any reason...which matches his arrogant attitude. Sarah doesn't bother me much, but I just don't want Peter around any longer.

I laughed so hard when Tyler said "Your train was wack, bro" James drawing a little train picture! They are so adorable! I'm so sick of them having bad luck though! According to past seasons, usually when a frontrunner falls to the back of the pack it just gives them all the more fuel to be first next time. It's a nice little kick in the arse! I'm not worried at all. A team's true mettle is showing that you don't bicker or put eachother down when you are behind. James and Tyler have proven that they remain cool and levelheaded even in stressful situations. I really CANNOT stand teams that HARP on eachother when they are stressed! The Hunky Junkies will quickly rise back to the top!

Peter just keeps digging himself deeper and deeper into the "I can't stand" him ranking for me. Making fun of David/Mary, mocking her hurt ankle, the Burger King crack, everything. I bet if one of the Beauty Queens had a hurt ankle, he'd be offering to carry them on his back. The BQ's didn't earn any points with me either by giggling and going along with all his merriment. Was Sarah in on that giggling/mocking session too?

BTW I am really impressed so far with their smarts. 1. They were the first to use the grey bricks on the first episode. 2. They quickly figured out how to use the paddles on the wide boats. (which seemed that it was as much mental as physical because the other teams could not solve how to best use them) Something I will never understand! The teams tell the cab drivers to go to a certain destination. The cab driver, UNSURE, gives them a quizzical glance. The team in turn rushes the cab driver into the car and they head off to parts unknown! LOL WHY! WHY! WHY! If they just took the time in the first place to make sure that the person knew where they were going they would SAVE SO MUCH TIME rather than rushing off unsure and having to come back. We see this all the time! When will they ever learn! WELL....I bring this up because I think that my boys, James and Tyler are excellent cab communicators! They were the first team to bring out their cabbie to listen to the auditory clue. When they can't get through to a foreigner they don't talk louder or start demeaning them (Rob and Kim) THEY DRAW PICTURES!! LOL I love it. They are soooo intelligent!

After Mary refused to do the alligator challenge I lost some respect for her and figured if she couldn't get up the nerve to do it then maybe she deserves to go home. What was she thinking!? They could have done that challenge easily. I bet when they watch the show she will realize that she would not have been in danger of being eaten. (bitten maybe but not killed) If she really wants to win then she needs to step it up a notch next week. Wow, Peter shut your mouth when you are eating! Heh. The editors did not do him any favors this week.

Don't forget that Mary/David came in way behind the others so they will be starting way behind the others also. I am keeping my fingers crossed that they can make up the time. If they'd stop working with/helping those crabby single moms that might help. Seems to me the crabby single moms are with them when it is to their advantage but gone bye bye when it's not. I like the change in the non-elimination leg too. They won't be begging on the street in those poor countries. They just have to make up time; work faster and smarter. And, I so agree with keeping your ignorant mouth shut when in destitute areas. Do they think those people choose to live like that? Is that a homeless cow? ROFLMAO

I don't understand why Erwin and Godwin went to the BQs and Peter and Sarah to tell them about the earlier flight. Why did they do that?! I'm glad David and Mary get another chance, but even if they believed the BQs and Peter & Sarah were behind them (thanks again, Erwin & Godwin!) they should've never opted for the slower challenge that only one other team was doing. By now they should know that the challenge that sounds more terrifying is usually the quickest. I thought it was funny that the BQs were acting like they were the offended ones when Peter came to see their tickets. He wouldn't have done that if they hadn't been trying to keep their info a secret. Those are some shady ladies, and I knew that alliance wouldn't work. Peter's not a team player and those two women aren't into sharing. Still, they ended up in the top two slots thanks to another team stabbing their own allies in the back.

I just realized that Mary didn't mention her ankle this week. Were those the models with masks over their noses and mouths?

"Didn't a couple get penalized a few seasons ago for using a phone to make reservations? Seems like I remember Lake in the beginning of last season stopping to make reservations but then he had to cancel them." When this happened the clue had written in it that they could not use them and had to purchase the ticket when arriving there. reading all the clues is important.

I am just getting sick and tired of Peter!!! Thank God Sarah now sees him for who he really is and not this "Doctor God!" My 9 yr old daughter said last night, "Mommy, if he is her doctor why isn't he trying to fix her leg for her and why does he keep screaming at her, he should understand how hard it is to run"! And that is from a 9 yr old! She is very right, I have disliked other teams before, but he truly turns my stomach. What bothers me even more is that HE doesn't care how rude he is. My family started making fun of Mary and David until I explained that I grew up not far from Kentucky in Indiana (we live in Florida now) and how it is much harder for them because they have never seen anything outside of Kentucky - so having said that I am very proud of them and how far they have made it. Her voice grinds on my nerves, but that isn't the point. I truly hope that David and Mary somehow can knock Peter out of the race and after the show Peter is on a TV show being asked "do you want some Burger King?" ha ha ha

I haven't watched the entire show yet (only caught a few minutes here and there). But Peter really irked me when he was at the airport with Dustin and Kandace. When he walked over and looked at their tix to see what flight they were on? And then he said that he would've been willing to share info with them. I got the distinct impression that had he been on an earlier flight, he would NOT have told them. I got the distinct impression he was trying to get all the info he could but wouldn't necessarily be sharing. I'm now thinking that Peter acts kind of dishonestly, and I'm liking him less and less. If that's even possible. I did also catch his comment about going from one polluted country to another. Lovely American. And I'm sure the cab driver understood what he said, too. (And oh yeah, did you NOT know this was a race around the world? What did you think, that you'd only be going to Paris, Rome, Sydney, and staying at the Plaza everywhere? Sheesh!)

Hi everyone, Trueheart, I'm w/ you. Tyler & James are my favorites, too. I like the way they work together. I'm sure they'll get back on top next week. I like this new rule. It's much more of a challenge than the old way. I can't see Dave & Mary pulling off first place next week, but anything is possible, I guess. I agree w/ the rest of you, Peter is a jerk, but I don't care much for Sarah either. I hope they have a really bad week soon, and that it won't be a non-elim round. I'm tired of them monopolizing the camera time. Curly, what team stabbed who in the back this week?...inquiring minds want to know.

I think Curly was referring to Erwin and Godwin telling Peter & Sarah and Dustin & Kandice about the earlier flight. They didn't exactly back stab their allies by doing that but it sure didn't help them. I'm not sure why they felt they should disclose that information.

Mary''s voice is irritating as it is whiny and she seems to rag on Dave all the time while being quite nice to everyone else, that said I really hope they stick around. She seems so natural, honest and naive, it's refreshing to see how much she seems to be enjoying the cultures she is thrown into. Without any prior experience of travel it must be pretty shocking to them.

on the new NEL penalty..It makes a lot of sense, because they'res bound to be some twists next ep..and lo and behold, there is- The CBS site says a FAST FORWARD is up for grabs next episode....So D+M may have to risk going for it, or hope that someone makes a mistake.....30 minutes is a lot of time, especially at the end of a leg, because the legs are designed to be close at the end...

Erwin and Godwyn said they were asked which flight they had and didn't want to lie. Good I guess that they don't like to lie, bad in this case!

Okay, I get it now. I was thinking a 30 minute penalty is a 30 minute penalty no matter where it comes, but if there is bunching, like everybody waiting for a place to open, the 30 minutes disappears. At the end, the 30 minutes becomes 30 REAL minutes.

Gee, Juju, I thought I understood it, but now I'm totally confused! LOL They only get the 30 minute penalty if they are not first to the next pitstop. Since they seemed to finish a long time after Tyler & James, it may be tough to catch up. Then again, if there is bunching, they may catch up easily; but they still need to finish first to waive the penalty completely. However, there are some legs when one team (like Dave and Mary last night) are dismally behind and finish way late. All Dave and Mary have to do is beat the last team in by at least 30 minutes. Right?

The Cho boys said something about how they didn't want to lie. Guess they'd never played a card game before.
