Race fans ready? Let's GO!

We get a Previously On segment. I see my blog pool pick team get Philiminated once again.

Teams are in the capitol of Jordan and will face a second leg there. Abby and Will are gone. GAH! A positive Covid test and they have been Philiminated. They both look fine (on video) but ...

All teams leave together. No elimination this leg because someone is already gone. However, the order they arrive at the Pit Stop dictates the order they leave for the next leg with four groups, one team leaving 45 minutes after the first group.

They get their clues inside the Citadel. It directs them to go to a bookstore. But they have to find the bookstore! With Molly/Emily, the leg injury one had last leg might be an issue. All the teams seem to be on the lost side looking for the bookstore.

Detour is their clue. Step by Step, learn a dance dressed up in native clothes. Letter by Letter has them memorizing the Arabic alphabet and reciting it.

Michael and Marcus get through the alphabet first.

Roadblock - Who's feeling broken-carted? One team member has to build a cart and deliver. Michael/Marcus are having a problem finding the park. All the other teams are still at one or the other detour. Emily/Molly make it through the alphabet first and are now on their way to the Roadblock.

Derek can't roll his Rs. Claire helps him. Aubrey and David make it through the dancing. Then Luis/Michelle make it through dancing. Derek/Claire make it through the alphabet. Lumumba and Glenda are still trying make it through dancing. Now all the other teams have hit the Roadblock. FINALLY, they pass the dancing!

Luis/Michelle finish the building of the cart first. They have to wheel their cart to Phil at a ruins site. They already lost a wheel and the cart is falling apart. They have to stop and fix it. David/Aubrey pass them by with their cart.

Pit Stop order:

1. Luis/Michelle - Won reward points for a five night trip to Barcelona
2. Aubrey/David
3. Quinton/Mattie
4. Derek/Claire 
5. Michael/Marcus
6. Molly/Emily
7. Lumumba/Glenda - will leave last for the next leg.

Hey again. Would you dance or learn the alphabet?

Glenn Allen said...

Hi Penny and Petals. I think the Alphabet might be hard! The ones knowing Hebrew might have an Edge.

Jackie S. said...

I think the time slot is killing this show!

Glenn Allen said...

The Cart fell apart. A quality Control fail from the Inspectors

Glenn Allen said...

I agree Jackie. The Time slot change hurt the show.

SueGee said...

Time slot is killing it and all because of the "Real" Love Boat!! I honestly don't trust myself to keep awake past 10pm so I always set the DVR for all my shows!!

Thanks for coming by!

Nickelpeed said...

They had to fit in another ridiculous love show. They want to force people to stay on the station.

Glenn Allen said...

My Pool picks with Glenda in trouble next week.

Nickelpeed said...

Thank you, Jackie. Appreciate it.

It was hard for her, but at least they didn't get eliminated.

See everyone next week! If I don't have to work.
