Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Nate and Jen are horrible but they still keep managing to stay.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Man. Azaria and Hendekea really screwed up at the airport. I wonder if they are going to catch up to Nick and Don? Have we had a non-elim leg yet? Even though, H&A did not have their finest hour at the airport, I really don't want anyone to leave now that Nate and Jen are safe.

Art Crawl!!!

Wow.

I really didn't think that they'd go so soon but I was torn becaue I like Don and Nick too.

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Aw. I liked H&A. Liked Don and Nick more, though, so I guess it's not a terrible end. Why couldn't it have been Nate and Jen? Horrible creatures and the only annoying team left in the whole race.

Are we just not going to have any non-elim legs? Don't we usually get one long before the final five?

He did say the last team to arrive "may" be eliminated which suggests that there are legs where the last team isn't eliminated.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I really thought this one would be non-elim! Ah well.

Punishingly Intricate

Looks like a ~25 minute delay on TAR...

Cries a lot. Stupid dvr not understanding about football delays and not getting home in time to catch it. Freakin' thing cut off as Ron & Christina were headed to the pitstop in a cab while the babyihateyoubaby couple weren't able to get a cab due to wet.

So, what happened?? The siblings were eliminated?

Are we just not going to have any non-elim legs?

Phil said how many in the first episode when he sent them off. I think it was at least two. I was sure that today was the day, with it being such a short leg.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Once again, Eastern European cabbies come through with a bolt of justice for the undeserving team. It could have only been sweeter if it got them eliminated, but since they're doing a fine job of self-destructing by themselves.

I mean, losing a rowing contest with an old herniated guy? It's true that Ron has more willpower than the Energizer Bunny, and as long as Christina can keep him pointed in the right direction, he's going to get through any task, but there are limits to how much strength and speed he's got.

Felt bad for Hendekea and Azaria, but sometimes a bad break is a bad break -- it would have been a good leg for a non-elim, alas.

Dubrovnik is beautiful, isn't it? I take it that it's once again safe for tourism, if TAR is going there. ::makes mental note::
