Normally it doesn't take this long to find out who has been eliminated

We're 20 minutes behind because of football. (And I still can't stand Peter.)

If you are 20 minutes behind it should end very soon now.

Dustin/Kandice carrying their croc now. They have to take off the rubber bands and they get clue. Dustin/Kandice arrive at bus station. Peter tells them they (he and Sarah) just missed the bus. Erwin/Godwin and Lyn/Karlyn get there and get clue. Karlyn/Lyn decide to do Wild Rice. Erwin/Godwin doing the same thing even though they are concerned about how long it'll take. Rob/Kim decide to do Wild Things. Karlyn/Lyn and Erwin/Godwin too hot and decide to do the Wild Things instead. Rob/Kim are done with the croc and get clue. Erwin/Godwin and Lyn/Karlyn pass Tyler/James' bus. Karyln/Lyn and Godwin/Erwin arrive and off to do their crocs. Tyler/James going to check out the Wild Rice first to see how hard it'll be. Erwin/Godwin transporting their croc as are Karlyn/Lyn. Lyn can't get over the wall. Rob/Kim impatiently waiting for their bus to get there. They want it to arrive before Erwin/Godwin and Lyn/Karlyn finish their task. But they are done and are back at the bus station now. Tyler/James trying to decide what to do. Lyn/Karlyn, Rob/Kim, and Erwin/Godwin on bus finally. Peter/Sarah and Dustin/Kandice back in Chennai. James/Tyler are working on the Wild Rice but think they might need to start over again on some of them. David/Mary going to do Wild Rice. Mary upset with David for making a mess. Tyler/James also frustrated. Peter/Sarah arrive and ROADBLOCK. Who is driving force behind the team? Must be schooled in local laws and go through proper process of obtaining Indian driver's license. Must sit through Driver's Ed course and then go through road course on the confusing and hectic roads of India to pass test all while driving on the left side of the road. Peter is sitting through the class now and in his car. Sarah following behind in their cab. Peter finishes and they get clue. Drive driving school cars, 10 miles to Chettina (sp??) House. It is the pit stop for this leg of this race. Dustin/Kandice are there and not sure which one is driving. Tyler/James have a mistake and have to redo something. David/Mary say they are catching up. Dustin/Kandice are done and get clue. I think it was Dustin who did the task for them. Peter/Sarah are team #1. They cheer and hug. They have each one home gym sys. Rob/Kim getting a taxi now. Lyn/Karlyn and Erwin/Godwin asking directions now too. Dustin/Kandice are team #2. Phil asks if we are looking at the first all female team to win TAR? They say, "I think you are, Phil." Rob doing the roadblock. Tyler/James asks for a judgement again and get clue. Off they go to the bus. David/Mary still working on their task. David complaining about how they could have wrangled two crocs by now. Rob/Kim finish and get clue. Erwin/Godwin and Karlyn/Lyn at roadblock. I think Erwin and Lyn are doing this one? Erwin/Godwin finish and get clue. Lyn/Karlyn also done and get clue. They are both off. Rob/Kim are team #3. They hug. David/Mary almost done now. They get it and get clue. Erwin/Godwin are team #4. Phil wants them to explain their shirts to him (it's a picture of Phil with the word "LOST" on it). Phil says that is a horrible picture of him. Lyn/Karlyn are team #5. They are worried about David/Mary. Tyler/James done with roadblock and off to pit stop. They are team #6. They say it is very humbling but maybe something they need. David/Mary know they are in last place at this point. David doing the roadblock. It's dark now. They are the last team to arrive. It's a non-elimination leg. They get to hold on to all of their posessions and all of their money. But, in the next leg, they are marked for elimination. That means they have to arrive first in the next leg. If they don't, they incur a 30 minute penalty and during that 30 minutes the other teams can be checking in... Mary says that is riduclously hard with the competition they've got but, any time she even thinks about giving up, she thinks of her kids because they are the reason she is doing this.

Sorry folks - there was a long break between commercials there so I couldn't post right away. Next week: Tensions spark between Dustin/Kandice and Lyn/Karlyn. (Lyn/Karlyn trying to stop someone from helping Dustin/Kandice in the clip.) Teams participate in ancient tradition with modern day twist.

Woofy, I just got squeezed off the pc by teenager for a while. What was your question directed to? (I talked too much, heehee..) Good, they didn't elilminate Dave & Mary and they didn't take all their possessions and money either! I'm happy D&M won't have to beg for help in India!

The new rules will certainly test how much stress the last place team can handle. I'm not sure I like it but I'm glad it's something new and not taking away all their stuff.

I don't mind the new non-elim rules only because I hate it when they have to beg for money and clothes.

I am so glad that David and Mary got to stay in the game one more leg. I kept shouting at them to go do the alligator thing!

D&M seemed to be a lot behind though. So they have what? 3o minutes next leg unless they snatched the 1st place?

I love the new non-elimination rules for these reasons: 1. They do not have to beg in the countries that are so poor and b. They really SHOULD have a time penalty......that was a long time in coming.

The only scary thing about that penalty is that they get it no matter what position they come in... so, depending on how the teams are spread at the end, they could come in pretty close to first and still lose.

Wow. I like the new twist for the non-elims. I didn't think the begging thing was all that great -- either it was useless since the other teams helped, or it was demeaning to watch the contestants beg. I'll also be interested to see if my initial reactions towards Lyn/Karlyn will remain. If they are trying to stop other teams from helping Dusting/Kandace, then I really will NOT like the moms and hope the beauty queens quick their meam arses!!! I'm glad it's looking like Sarah is seeing Peter as he really is. I dunno if she had a god complex with him or not (with his help making her leg), but I really don't like their relationship. Thanks, as usual, for doing such a phenomenal job spoiling Raen!

Thirty minute penalty is not so bad. They might have spent way more than 30 mins. begging for money.

It's not just the thirty minutes – it's when it is applied. The problem is that the thirty-minute penalty occurs at the end after they check in. It would probably be of negligible importance if it occurred at the start (which is when they spent time begging in the past). I think it is a great rule change. The no clothes and begging for money just made the teams look bad and it made me as a viewer uncomfortable. It wasn't fun to watch and it was totally ineffective. To the best of my knowledge there wasn't a single team that was eliminated in the subsequent leg after incurring the penalty. I thought tonight's show was great. I'd love to see Dustin and Kandice win the whole thing. It would be the first time that a two woman team has won and it would negate the beauty queen stereotyping. Plus they generally are playing a great game, they don't complain a lot and they seem to be enjoying the experience. The guy teams are great too but we've seen a lot of guy teams win.

I don't hold out much hope for David and Mary to win. David seems to be a bit hen pecked. I think Mary probably talks to him like that at home too. Peter acts so smug and condescending. I hope Sarah drops him as soon as the race is over.

Did anyone else cringe at Peter making fun of David & Mary? And then he was definitely hitting on the beauty queens and when they didn"t respond he started calling them the Barbies.

after tonight, NOTHING can redeem Peter he was already disliked but tonight all of his negative traits came front and center with his condescending attitude, flirting, negative talk about the others , and no willingness to compromise to play like a TEAM - its either you are with me or against me, and that is NOT how you win in life

Didn't like Peter making fun of David and Mary. I really didn't like Rob and Kim talking about the "poor country" and it's residents. She said. "Don't let anybody touch me." Didn't whats his name try to start a fight about that a few seasons ago? Didn't like Peter's comment about going from one polluted city to another...like you can't do that in the good ol' USA. :D Makes me kinda embarrassed to be a part of it. No wonder some countries have a problem with Ammerickens. During the previews for next week, I kinda found myself reminiscent of Team Guido blocking the Airplane ramp. Oh and did I mention that I don't like Peter? or Rob and Kim for that matter... Everybody else is ok in my book...but the Single Moms are pushing their luck. Thank goodness I prepared and recorded all the shows surrounding TAR. Regee...looks like I won't be needing your help again. Thanks so much for helping me catch up last week. :D
