The Amazing Race 31: Episode 3 Blog Party

Two teams Philiminated in the first two episodes. The first episode Phil said a team WILL be eliminated. The second episode, he said MAY be eliminated. What will he say tonight? Are we due a non-Philimination? 

I realize there are spoilers out on the web regarding the winning team and the two other teams in the finale. I ask that no one post the spoilers in the comments here. If you wish to know, just Google the show name, season number and "spoilers." Then, when you find out -- keep it to yourself!

I will be live-blogging the major events as they air here on the East Coast. Refresh this post to get the latest news. I hope it's not like last week with a gaggle of teams arriving atop of each other. I couldn't keep up with them! The party itself is in the comments area -- feel free to join in!

Here are the latest blog pool standings from Lifeguard SueGee:

Rachel & Elissa -- Delee, Nickelpeed
Nicole & Victor -- Jackie, Jennifer, Jenna G

On your marks, get set … let's go!

Nine teams remain. Who will be eliminated next?

They're off to Vietnam next and have to use (and promote) the Travelocity app. 

Once there, they have to pick up a package of herbal remedies from the House of Vietnamese Medicine. 

Team Fun tries to make up and explain the U-Turn to Tyler and Korey. Meanwhile, Rachel and Elissa try to apologize to Team Fun. One apology seems to be accepted, the second one not so much.

BB makes an alliance to not U-Turn each other.

Vietnam is where Floyd got heat stroke during their season. Not so good memories for him!

Teams are racing around a building looking for the doctor.

Detour -- Catch you own prawns or dance with a dance group.

Leo and Jamal try to head the Survivor gals the wrong way, but they're onto them.

Team Fun finishes the dance first and heads to the Roadblock which is memorizing and singing a song in Vietnamese.

Watching the teams try to remove the prawns from the hooks is a hoot. Only Tyler and Korey and the Survivor Gals chose that. Rachel/Elissa are stuck on the dancing detour as other teams (including Victor/Nicole) pass them.

Team Fun hits the Roadblock and it's up to Floyd to take it on. Meanwhile, Elissa wants to quit the dancing. Chris and Bret are just about to start the dance. The Afghanimals and Britney/Janelle are still roaming about lost.

Chris/Bret head off fishing for prawns after one horrific try at dancing. The Survivor Gals beat out Tyler/Korey at prawns. 

Floyd got the Roadblock done on the first shot and they're headed off to the Pit Stop. Janelle/Britney made it through the dancing and now it's the Afghanimals trying to dance.

Eliza shows up as Victor is trying to learn the Roadblock song. She starts screaming so he heads off to do it. Heh. He made it through it despite Eliza.

Pit Stop --
1. Becca and Floyd, Team Fun! Also won a trip to the Bahamas.
2. Nicole/Victor
3. Colin/Christie
4. Tyler/Korey
5. Corinne/Eliza
6. Janelle/Britney
7. Rachel/Elissa
8. Leo/Jamal
9. Chris/Bret -- NON-PHILIMINATION!

All teams still in it. Chris and Bret will have to do a Speed Bump in the next leg.
