I'm getting this thread started but thought I should warn everyone that football ran long in my area and 60 minutes just started. I presume that means it'll run long and I won't be able to spoil until at 8:30-ish EST. If anyone else out there gets the show on time and can spoil, everyone on the West Coast will greatly appreciate it!

Mongolia. 2nd pit stop. Peter/Sarah: 6:54AM. Fly over 2300 miles. Hanoi, Vietnam. Find way to prison... notoriously known as Hanoi Hilton. $0 for this part of the race. Have to buy airline tickets at a travel agency. This is noted as EXTREMELY IMPORTANT in the clue card. 7:07 AM: Tyler/James leaving. 7:45 AM: Duke/Lauren leaving. 7:52 AM: Tom/Terry leaving. (All teams talking a bit here, as usual.) Clue card says, you have $0 and you may not beg or sell anything. Duke/Lauren have $11. They arrive at the hotel with the travel agency. It doesn't open until 9AM. 8:11 AM: Dustin/Kandice leaving. 8:13 AM: Rob/Kim leaving. They are already lost a bit and Kim telling Rob not to get upset. 8:16 AM: David/Mary leaving. David talking about how his Dad was in Vietnam. Mary interrupts him telling this to say everyone is passing him and they bicker a bit about his speed. Others arriving at hotel/travel agency now and now forming a line. 8:18 AM: Erwin/Godwin leaving. Rob/Kim asking for directions to hotel. Tom/Terry walk past available travel agent so Dustin/Kandice grab her. Tyler/James say the blondes are always looking for any little inch. Tom/Terry saying they thought they could trust those goes. Tom/Terry say they are not going to win a beauty pagaent on niceness that's for sure. 9:02 AM: Lyn/Karlyn leaving. All looking for best flight. All seem to be getting tickets on a Beijing flight. Lyn/Karlyn at hotel now. Talking to David/Mary and find out that everyone is on the same flight. At the hotel now, David re-wrapping Mary's ankle that she twisted in the last leg of the race. All nine teams on same plane to Hanoi. Arriving in Hanoi at almost 11PM. All getting taxis now. Dustin/Kandice one of the first teams to leave. They are worried about having enough money for the taxi. They note that one team only had $11. Duke/Lauren met a local woman on the plane. She is going to get them a taxi and she's going to go with them in the taxi. The lady asks them to wait for them and Duke isn't sure if they should wait. Erwin/Godwin get a taxi. Lyn/Karlyn try to see if David/Mary will fit in their taxi with them but they won't fit so they can't do that. Duke/Lauren finally have their lady back and on their way. Dustin/Kandice stuck in traffic. There is a truck on it's side on the road. They get out to look and getting passed by othe other taxis now. Duke/Lauren taking a side route now because they are dropping their travel guide off first. Lauren not happy about that.

Duke/Lauren asking their guide how much it's going to cost now. Duke does understand and he realizes they won't have enough money. They drop off their guide and are off to prison. Duke says it'll be fine and Lauren says it'll be great when they are arrested for not being able to pay their driver. Other taxis arriving at the prison now and they see it doesn't open until 8AM. Duke/Lauren arrive and their cab driver accepts the $11 they have. They admit that they lucked out with that. Prison opening and each getting a parchment with a story on it about American POW's being held at the prison. They need to find John McCain's flight suit in the prison. They are all in now and searching everywhere. Dustin/Kandice say not to go in the same palces that Tom/Terry have gone. Tom/Terry find the flight suit and get their clue. They take a small moment to appreciate the suit. Others all arriving now. Some snatching of clues going on here? I think jokingly. Erwin/Godwin also take a moment of silence out of respect for the servicemen after the others have left. They say they wanted to honor it properly even though they'd be in last place. Must make their way, 1 1/2 miles, to Hanoi Old Quater. Must find marked flower shop to get their next clue. All getting taxis now. Duke/Lauren get directions and walking because they have no money for a taxi. Someone says there are a lot of flower shops. David/Mary get directiosn from their taxi driver. Tom/Terry arrive and get clue. ROADBLOCK. Have to figure out how to charm the people and turn a profit on the streets of Vietnam. Have to choose a bike and sell enough flowers to make 8000 = $5. Not sure which of Tom/Terry is doing it. Erwin/Godwin arrive too. Not sure which one is doing it. Peter doing it from Peter/Sarah. All peddling now. Peter seems to be selling the most. All getting bikes now and picking people to do the task. All but Duke/Lauren are there at this point. They are getting directions from people. Peter is still the one selling the most flowers. Sarah says all the women love him. They have enough so they bring their money to the flower woman and get clue. Travel by public bus, 30 miles to, Village of VAC. Search Buddhist Temple for next clue. They are off to the bus now. Rob/Kim need more. Godwin calls Erwin back to where everyone else is selling their flowers. Godwin says two young females are going to sell more. Duke/Lauren finally arrive and Duke is going to do it. Dustin/Kandice are done as are Rob/Kim. Both on their way. R/K in 2nd. Tyler/James done and get their clue. They are asking people for directions to the bus. Peter/Sarah at the bus station and trying to get on the right bus. They get on a bus and no one else arrives to get on it. Erwin/Godwin are off, as are Erwin/Godwin. Peter/Sarah find out they are on the wrong bus and now asking the driver to stop. They find out they need to take bus 22. Now waiting for the right bus. Lyn/Karlyn are off to bus station as are David/Mary. Tyler/James and Dustin/Kandice not sure where to go. Duke/Lauren are done and get to keep their money. They get clue and are off. Tom/Terry arrive and are on 2nd bus to Vac Village. Peter/Sarah still waiting for bus. Lyn/Karlyn following Dustin/Kandice and the other teams. All teams having trouble crossing the road. A bunch of teams arriving and getting on bus together. I think all the teams are on that last bus except Peter/Sarah. They think they are out of it.

I am missing the show tonight because the Red Wings are playing. I thought that I would just check in here during the intermissions. Thank Goodness! There is no way I could watch this episode. I'd be more than boohooing. I'd be wailing and sobbing. I would be rocked to the core. Thank you Raen. I appreciate you so much...especially tonight.

Tyler/James doing FUEL. Dustin/K doing FUEL. Lyn/Karlyn doing FUEL. Ok, all at this point doing FUEL. David/Mary arriving at clue box now and decide to do FUEL because David is a coal miner. Tom/Terry working on their last brick but only one is good so they have to redo. Erwin/Godwin finish. Make your way on foot to pit stop. Expansive rice patty. They get directions and are off. Peter/Sarah finally arrive. Peter saying Sarah is moving kind of slow on her foot. She says she is doing the best she can. All the other teams seem to be lost now. Duke/Lauren lose the others when they stop for directions. Tom/Terry have to remake more. All the other teams trying to find the coal place. David/Mary arrive and getting them out pretty quickly. Tyler/James finally arriving at coal place. Erwin/Godwin arrive at the mat. They are team #1. They cheer and hug. They win a state of the art home entertainment system. Duke/Lauren arrive at bird cage place and decide to do it since they are there. Rob/Kim, Dustin/Kandice, and Lyn/Karlyn finally find the coal place. Tom/Terry still working. Dustin/Kandice say once they got the hang of it, they got moving pretty quick. David/Mary working on their bricks. David says he got in another place today - thinking about his Dad and Vietname, etc. Peter/Sarah finally arrive at FUEL task. Tom/Terry get their bricks checked and finally get their finally clue. They are off. They get directions and are off. Duke/Lauren working hard on their bird cage. Tom/Terry arrive at mat but they broke a rule so they have 30 minute penalty and have to wait. Back at FUEL, all working hard. Phil tells Tom/Terry where to stand and wait it out. Tom/Terry think it's over for them.

Thanks Native, The moms are pretty funny. They don't get much face time though. I'm a bit concerned for my second fave team....the father/daughter.

Anyone else more than a little skeezed when Peter ran ahead while Sarah practically had to crawl across the rice paddy?
