I'm assuming tonight is not really a new episode but rather a recap with "highlights and never before seen footage" since that is how tonight's episode is described on the official site. Maybe we'll see a kinder gentler side of Johnathon in scenes not shown before? Not ~ lol! On another note, I went over to the official site and was watching parts of Phil's diary. While talking about the 'rice road block', he talks about how emotional Don got watching how well his wife, Mary Jean, did in that competition while "Johnathon, who has a personal trainer and is a very fit guy, just really struggled with this road block". Love that! In another diary session, as he describes the one episode where he ends up telling Jonathon to go talk to Victoria (after the hitting incident), he talks about Jonathon's words to Victoria of "This is a race, it's not about compassion" and says about Jonathon "This is a man who is focused and who is going all the way to the end of this race and winning it." PLEASE please please tell me Phil made that diary comment at that point of the race and not afterwards. If Johnathon wins this thing, I will have to boycott my favorite show for now on.

PLEASE please please tell me Phil made that diary comment at that point of the race and not afterwards. If Johnathon wins this thing, I will have to boycott my favorite show for now on. please please tell me that TOO!!! I agree!! I think Phil probably meant that Jon WANTS to go all the way to the end of the race and wants to win it. I dont WANT to know who wins this race at all, Jonathon or ANY team, which is why i dont go to the spoiler areas or read possible spoiler articles.

LOL You know, I am chomping at the bit to find out what happens in the PART 2 of the last episode. I sure hope that this isnt a recap show. Someone going to Spoil the show?? Actually I wish we just called it the "LIVE SHOW transcription" cause it isnt really spoiling as per the rules of TVCH since the show is on Television real-time.

Adam and Rebecca have apparently lost a clue. Adam is telling Rebecca to calm down as she is freaking out about having lost it and tearing her bag apart looking for it. They stop the cab and Adam gets out telling her to calm down. Next we see that she has found it in a shop - looks like a little tourist shop that has maps. She jumps up and down, excited to have found it.

It appears that way, Babyruth. Phil said we'd be back to see more scenes -- not that we'd see the conclusion of last week.

Back in Chicago - with the teams taking off. Phil says what we didn't see... Freddy and Kendra lost their first clue and Victoria sees it. Jonathon stoops down and picks it up. F/K on the subway and looking for the clue. J/V on the same subway and hand them back the clue. Jonathon says, "Only 'cuz it's you." Gus proposes alliances with H/A and A/J so they can get ahead of Jonathon. Ok, landing in Iceland. Bolo's special technique to get them through customs faster. Bolo acting like he's got cerebal palsy (sp?) to get out ahead of the teams and they do. H/A think that was bad and hope it comes back to haunt them. Everyone is having lots of trouble with getting directions - Don says he thinks they are all ripped. He says the whole town is blitzed. A/R now clashing over the sunglasses. A says he is going to put R in her bag and close the trunk. She just looks at the back of his head and blows a bubble. Victoria can't believe that they are camping on the glacier. One of the all girl teams are joking about sleeping naked together, as it is supposed to keep you warmer. Lori is giving Rebecca a lesson in wrestling. Now we see the teams all waking up again. Ahh, it was Lena/Kristy... they say they were too cold to even get naked and cuddle. We're loking at the ice wall and the lagoon tasks again. And we see H/A checking in as team #1 again. A/J are eliminated (ok, sorry didn't type everything up because we really saw all of it the first time around). Gus and Hera say they lost an alliance in that first leg. Now on to Leg 2 and Oslo, Norway. I guess Hayden had some trouble with the stick shift at first too.... Ahh we are seeing Meredith and Maria stalling and holding everyone up. Kris and Jon help them... Kris gets in and helps Mar/Mer move their car up and out of the way... Mer and Mar say that Kris and Jon are really nice people. (They helped them get the car moving.) Ahh the zipline again... with Adam screaming that he loves his mom. And, here we go, arrival at the viking village with Jonathon lecturing Victoria on her teamwork. He is telling her that she owes him a big apology for not believing in him. Lena/Kristy say they like Victoria but not Jon. They say they've never seen anyone like Jon before. Jon crowing about himself and his abilities. Says he is just amazed at himself.

Lena/Kristy are freaking out because of the bugs. Lena says that she didn't tell Kristy that there were spiders on the bed and Kristy is freaking out that she didn't know that.... Adam and Rebecca fighting about the sunglasses again in the boat. And, afterwards Adam realizes that he has lost his sunglasses because Rebecca told him to take them off. Ok, here we go... the train track discussion again. Rebecca telling Adam she wants a healthy relationship - what they don't have. Adam says that she is making him look like the biggest d*ck in the country and she says, "Oh you did a good job of that yourself. Yeah." LOL!! Lots of a shots of the falling down in the rollerskiing. Aaron extremely unhappy. A/R now realizing someone took their car and Don/MJ realize they took the wrong car.

The thing I hate about recap shows is that they always say we'll see stuff we haven't seen but we never do... Sure we're not getting exactly the same moment of conversations but close enough that it just feels like the same scene again.

LOL... whoops, Raen! I think I must've been tippling a bit, too. I guess it was wishful thinking that the show started at 8pm again tonight! <grin> And yeah... if they'd show us different stuff (like A/R losing the clue first off, and F/K losing their clue and Jonathan handing it back). Actually, didn't one of 'em lose a clue, and go take another? And get penalized for it? Freddy and Kendra? They got a 30 minute penalty, didn't they?

Don/MJ and A/R exchanging cars. Lena/Kristy putting on makeup so they'll look good for Phil when they arrive at the pit stop!! Too funny. We're reminded Kris/Jon came in first and Mer/Mar were eliminated. Ahhh, Rebecca was starving so she flirts with the guy on the train to get him to buy her a sandwich. She tries to get him to buy Adam a piece of pizza but he says no, just her. Adam refuses any of Rebecca's sandwich and is annoyed at her flirting. At the ice bar, Jonathon tries to climb on the bull ice sculpture and he ends up breaking the horns off. He says he was so embarrassed. Now as they wait at IKEA, Kendra thinks Freddy is being cheap because he wants to sleep outside instead of staying in a room at a hotel. IKEA Detour. Vic and Jon fighting over the desk. Aaron taunts Jonathon and says, "Don't yell." Phil says that Jon and Vic stun the IKEA staff with their fighting and agressiveness to each other. Meanwhile, Don and MJ build their marital bond despite having difficulties. H/A and K/J arrive 1st and 2nd. We see the other teams finding their clue in the hay as Lena/Kristy keep looking. Phil comes out... over more than 100 hay bales. He elminiates them and asks why she kept going. F/K arguing over money again. Kendra is annoyed that Freddy would pay for a cab ride but would make her sleep on the dirty floor or outside. She tells him he is not in charge of the money. Period. All arriving in Africa. Find author's cemetary... Phil says some teams faced culture shock. Hera is stressed about the cab ride, not knowing if the cab driver can be trusted. A/R, though, have fun on their cab ride. They are trying to ask the driver if he speaks French and then try to make conversation. F/K horrified by everything but Kris and Jon are soaking in this new experience. Kris says that if she sees bad behavior on the race she is going to get upset. Jon hands out candy to the kids. Jon/Vic talking about having kids. Lovely... we get to see hera and don getting seasick again. Now on the harvesting of the salt. Bolo yelling at Lori and the natives cheering them on... Adam flounders while the women excell. Rebecca says she should have done this task. Don is proud of MJ and telling the camera about falling in love with her on the campus of Stanford. Some of them have troubles leaving the road block. Lori/Bolo having difficulties with the cab driver... Bolo yelling at them not to touch them... Hayden/Aaron party with their cab driver - they are singing with him. Jonathon is stressing over the traffic.

Yeah that was Fred/Kendra later on... they seem to have trouble with those clues. They lost it after the boat ride over from the viking village. Interestingly enough, they didn't even mention that this time and you'd think they would since they showed them losing their clue right from the get go.

Jonathon tries to get ahead of the competition by telling the guys at the ferry to take Lori/Bolo outside and make them miss the boat. Doesn't look like the guy does it though. Now Adam and Rebecca bickering again, Adam upset that Rebecca told everyone he was a wussy boy. D/MJ arrive last but not eliminated. The emotional slavery monument... Gus crying at the monument. Jonathon befriends a local for help. In return, the local asked for a favor... wants Jonathon to read his script for a movie. Jonathon talking with the local about his movie, asking what it is about. Kendra can't wait to leave Africa - again we see her being horrible in the cab. Meanwhile, Kris and Jon can't get enough. They are bathing in the water and playing with the children. Kris has studied alot about Africa and Jon says he is learning so much more aobut her. Hayden causes a stir at the airport, trying to get tickets for F/K. Lori and Bolo upset and say they shouldn't be able to do that. Now they are in Berlin - A/R are following Jon and Vic and Jonathon turns to confront them and tells them not not follow them anymore. They get on the train and Jon says hopefully they got rid of them. A/R on the train too... Adam wants to go sit next to Jonathon just to annoy him. Rebecca begs him not to do it and they argue about it. Hayden is not impressed by the Berlin Wall. She says she was picturing something more magnificent (ok, not sure if she really isn't impressed, she just says it isn't want she expected). Gus drinking all the beer and Hera says he looks like a lush, as he trips down the stairs. Gus tries to get away with one more beer. LOL!!! In the car Gus is saying it was low alcohol beer and it was really good. Hera asks how he knows that and he says he could taste that it was (yeah right, no German beer is low alcohol beer). Soapbox derby time... as MJ crashes. Jon and Vic in a footrace with Fred/Kend... Vic stops to pick up Jon's back pack and screaming/crying at Jonathon as they run to the finish... F/K arrive first. Jon comes back and screams at Vic and asks why she picked it up and tells her she shouldn't cry as we see Fred/Kendra hugging in the distance.

Jon and Vic checking in as team #2. Jon and Vic bickering about the bag and Phil asks if Vic is she is ok. Phil sends Jon to go talk to her. Jon is yelling at her again and Vic says she was tired/exhausted and her partner was not on her side. D/MJ get eliminated. Olympic Stadium... Kendra wants to go somewhere to be productive and Freddy says there is nothing open. He tells her she is acting foolish and tells her to lower her voice and calm down. She tells him he needs to lower his voice. All girls doing the bungee road block. Hayden tells us she is afraid of heights and she wouldn't even go on a roller coaster - she is so proud of herself when she does it. She says that all the girls were doing it and she wasn't going to back out. Adam and Bolo joking with each other about wimping out on the task. They give Rebecca a hard time, joking about her having aliving will and asking if they can have the rest of her power bars if she doesn't make it. Now we're in Budapest... haha... what we didn't see was teams attempting to fill their gas tanks. Kris and Jon are trying and Jon gets the gas all over himself as it bursts open. He changes into some shorts... now Lori/Bolo trying it and getting frustrated. Jon/Vic says that the smart ones are going to get there and the dumb ones are going to break down on the side of the road. A/R at the gas station and R giving A a hard time because he wants teh guy to check the tires. Kris/J having trouble and Jon is pushing the car with his leg out the door. Kris laughs about him doing the Flinestone thing. Hayden/Aaron are broken down - out of gas. Someone is geting them some gas but Hayden says Aaron doesn't know where they are meeting the guy. Aaron keeps pushing the car even though Hayden wants him to stop. Hayden gives the man who brings them back gas a hug. Then they hug and say sorry to each other. On to the detour and the internet cafe. F/K are in the lead as Lori/Bolo fall behind. Teams enter the Internet cafe as L/B are not in site and find out they can not get a train back tonight. Now we are back where we were last week... with L/B saying they are jsut going to try their best and see what they can do... there is a storm outside as we see the others waiting for the cafe to open. Stayed tuned for scenes from next episode.
