Tammy/Victor arriving at the tree now. They have to look for the clue. They have to dial one of the numbers on a telephone. They ask their driver to listen to what it says and he gets it. They have to drive to a fort now.

Five other teams all together on the road now. Mel/Mike have caught up with the rest. Tammy/Victor pass the others as they are coming in.

All arrive and running now. All searching around for clue. Several pass the phone and don't even look at it.

Christi/Jodi the only ones not there yet. Tammy/Victor pass them as they go. Christi/Jodi say it's not a good feeling to be passed.

Kisha/Jen and Margie/Luke finally see the phone. Mike looking for another phone. All listening now but not all of them too sure what they heard.

Kisha/Jen are off first. Jaime/Cara's driver goes out to talk to someone and they yell at him that they have to hurry. Can't tell who actually ended up first here.

Mark/Michael finally done now and head off.

Christi/Jodi being passed by all the others leaving. Christi/Jodi listening on the phone now. They head off. They hope they can turn it around here.

Tammy/Victor arriving at the Amber Fort. ROADBLOCK. Must work in shadow of fort and care for a camel. Choose a group of camels, they must load and carry food and water to care for their group of camels. Once the food reaches a line and water poors out, they will get clue.

Victor starts with a bucket and Tammy questions whether he's doing the right thing and he realizes he has to use traditional tools and the basket to the side (which is bigger). He says it's easier anyway. He gets food in his mouth as he shifts the basket and he yells to Tammy that camel food doesn't taste very good.

On the road, Mark/Michael passing all the other cabs. Tammy yelling encouragement to Victor. Victor gets all the food he needed and now he's working on the water.

Mark/Michael arrive with Kisha/Jen right behind and Jaime/Cara behidn them. Mel/Mike arrive too. All searching for the clue box but they finally find it.

Margie/Luke in 6th place.

(I suck at telling team members apart.)

Kisha is doing it. Jaime is doing it, she's getting testy with the locals who won't help her. Mel and Margie doing the task. Luke says the other teams call his mom the Bionic Woman. Kisha yells to Jen that this is no fun. Jaime talking herself up as she goes back and forth with water. Some little kid tells Mel, "Fast, go fast!"

Mike says it was time for Mel to do a roadblock but now that he's struggling he isn't sure it was the right call. Christi/Jodi on their way to the fort now and saying they can't lose hope as they have gone from last to the front of the pack a couple of times.

Victor finishes and gets clue. Tammy trips as they run off. Make their way to Puppet Store where they'll find next clue.

Mike having some trouble as he works on his water task.

Christi/Jodi finally arrive. Victor wishes them good luck and admits it was hard.

Mel still struggling as Jaime gets close. Kisha is moving on to the food now. Mike says he would have done the challenge in a second if he had known what the task was going to be. As Mel gets back with more water and realizes he still needs more he yells out, "Sorry Michael."

Back with Mel struggling.

Kisha carrying food in her shirt? Margie and Mark both carrying food in their buckets. Mel is the only one who sees the basket and rake for the food. He says most everyone else was using the bucket for both and that was wrong but he uses the basket.

Tammy/Victor arrive at cluebox. DETOUR. Movers: Have to transport barrels by pedaling 1 1/2 miles through streets. Shakers: In busy intersection, join dance crew and shake hips for tips. once they earn 100 Rubies, they exchange cash for clue.

Tammy/Victor choose Shakers. They have to put on horse outfit and put on makeup and then join their dance crew. Now they are off and dancing. Victor says he could never have imagined doing this kind of thing before the race. Tammy/Victor earning tips and thanking those helping them.

We get views of all the others using the buckets for their feed (and Kisha using her shirt). Kisha sees Mel and realizes she can use that. She curses herself. Others catching on now too. Mike says he's keeping his fingers crossed. Jodi carrying her food now.

Mel finishes first and gets his clue. Mike can't believe it. He pats his Dad on his back and tells him he did awesome. Mike very excited for his dad.

Jaime/Cara finish and are off. Margie/Luke are off too. Kisha/Jen off too. The teams are off with Kisha/Jen off first. Mark/Michael finished now too and off. Christi/Jodi are done and they are off, "Caution Speed Bump Ahead"

Christi/Jodi say they can't lose hope because all it takes is for one other team to have bad luck and they're still in it.

Tammy/Victor finishing and get their clue. Race to Jaigarh Fort, pit stop for this leg of the race. They get in their cab and are off.

Mel/Mike decide to do Shakers since Mel had done enough heavy lifting for the day. They go get suited up and are off dancing.

Mark/Michael catch up with the other teams now because of the traffic. Jaime/Cara see Mel/Mike doing their task. They wonder how they always get there so fast. Mel/Mike having a great time. They say the people are so generous.

Mark/Michael decide to do the Movers task. Kisha/Jen going to do Shakers as are Margie/Luke and Jaime/Cara.

Mel/Mike having to keep going at this point because they need a little more money.

Other teams other than Mark/Michael dancing now. Luke says he was letting Margie do most of the dancing and letting her get the money. Mark/Michael have got their barrels and are off to deliver them.

Christi/Jodi arrive at Speed Bump. They have to decorate waiting elephant to get their clue and continue on. They arrive and get to work.

Others dancing as Mark/Michael looking for where they need to go.

Tammy/VIctor arriving at the pit stop. They are Team #1. They high five. They win an ocean kayak. They say it's perfect for SF and LA. Victor says they have recovered well from their travesty in Romania.

Mel/Mike finish and off to pit stop.

Christi/Jodi working on their elephant. They say no matter what you never quit.

Kisha/Jen getting close but they don't have quite enough yet.

Jaime/Cara finish and head off to pit stop but they can't find their taxi. They are searching for it and frustrated when they can't find it.

Christi/Jodi finish and head off to do the detour now. Caime/Jara freaking out that their taxi has left with their bags. They say they've looked for him for 20 minutes. Margie/Luke finish and get clue. Jaime/Cara find their taxi at the same time. They ask, "Where have you been?! It's not funny."

Kisha/Jen finishing as Mark/Michael find their destination and start unloading barrels.

Christie/Jodi starting the Shakers task as Kisha/Jen are off to the pit stop. They have no idea how many teams are left and how many have finished.

Mark/Michael searching for the elephant they have to use to get their clue. Christie/Jodi working away at getting tips as Mark/Michael searching for the elephant.

I have a hard time telling the redheads apart, but one of them is really rude (at least I think it's just one of them).

I've noticed on previous shows that one of them made some rude remarks in taxis and this week, she just seemed to get worse.

Don't Mark and Michael realize they are directionally challenged, they should never go off on their own we might never see them again, LOL.

Great job Raen!

Mark/Michael think they are missing something. They keep searching for their elephant as we go back to Christie/Jodi realizing they just need a little more to finish.

Mel/Mike are Team #2. They cheer. Mike says Mel rocked it today. Says he smoked the competition. Mel says he loves Mike anyway but when he makes him proud that's the prize in this race for him.

Christie/Jodi finish and get their clue. They head off to their cab and he knows where to go.

Back with Mark/Michael still searching for their elephant. Michael finally finds it. They high five and head off. (Can't really tell what the timing is between these two last teams.)

Kisha/Jen running with the others right behind them.

Kisha/Jen are team #3, Margie/Luke are team #4, and Jaime/Cara are team #5. All cheer.

Christie/Jodi say all they can do is hope for the best at this point. Mark/Michael say it's not over yet.

Editors hiding who is arriving first...

Mark/Michael are team #6. They high five. Phil says they cut it pretty close and we see Christie/Jodi arriving right behind them.

Christie/Jodi are the last team to arrive and they have been eliminated from the race. They tell Phil why they came on the race. They give each other a hug as they cry. They say they don't really think it was ever about the money, it was the experience that counts. They say they're better friends for having gone through this together.

Next week on TAR: Teams go wild in Thailand. (Looks like massages from elephants and sitting with tigers?) And the sweltering heat takes its toll on Margie. (She faints and we see producers and Phil come in to help her as she goes down in Luke's arms.)

Thanks Raen! You did an awesome job as usual. Don't worry about who does the roadblocks... you get everything else on the nose! :-)

Cara's usually the rude redhead. (general concensus.. Jaime is the usually rude redhead, or ruder)

I was worried that Mark/Michael had really blown it. At one point I saw that monkey and wondered if it has swiped the tiny elephant, too.

I'm mixed on the losers tonight, but Mark and Michael, Christie and Jodi have seemed to be the most consistently in trouble of those teams left.

==

Ah interesting point.. if Phil was there, seems like it had to be at check in..

Hope they made it too the mat in time before Margie faints from heat stroke (my guess). I wonder if they had anyone on the production team with Sign Language skills for an emergency situation? I imagine Luke would be frantic from being concerned for his mother and a lack of communication regarding what is happening.

I didn't see any major mishaps in this episode, so I wan't surprised that Christie and Jodi couldn't catch up. It's still sad to see some people get eliminated, but they got an extra week. I was glad to see Tammy and Victor do well again, if they keep up that pace, they may win it all. You never know, though. All the teams are doing pretty well and I'm glad that the first team in has been changing, it makes it more interesting. This game gets better with every episode.

If you missed it they have it at cbs here, but you can also try here and here.

It's jaime that's more rude. At the beginning of this episode cara is the one in the interview that states she is the passive one of the two.

Whew, just watched the Elimination Station for this week, Steve and Linda are getting even more annoying. One of the guys asked Steve about if he had any good friends at home, and Steve said no because everytime he makes a friend he gets screwed by them. So apparently his atitude didn't start on the show.

It looks like Margie collasped just as they got to the mat. I imagine they will count it as getting there even if she does not get on the mat, itself. Apparently she got dehydrated because she said "I think I need some water," and then just went down.

I am really enjoying the Race this season. Well, I always do, but this season is the first in a long time where I really like all of the teams so far.
