TAR13, Recap Leg 6, 11/2/08

Welcome to Leg 6! Last time, on It’s Like Pulling Down Your Zipper and Letting It Flow, teams jumped from Auckland to Siem Reap, Cambodia, where the Frats didn’t let the gas flow at all. Nick lied to get ahead, Tina got lost and frustrated, and all the craziness ended in Aja and Ty being eliminated. Who will be eliminated. . . next? (click for more)

Arrival at the pit stop last episode:

Bayon Temple, Siem Reap, Cambodia

11:22 PM Nick/Starr (1st)
Clue: Fly 2000 miles to Dehli, India! Once there, travel by taxi to San Raport Auto Complex and find your clue at Moonlight Motors. You have $110 for this leg of the race.

3- Ken/Tina
4- Kelly/Christy
5- Terence/Sarah
6- Andrew/Dan

Teams choose flights to India. All teams end up on the same Bangkok Airways flight to Dehli that arrives at 4:15 PM.

So, teams arrive in Dehli and get their taxis in the following order:

And teams come to the fifth roadblock.

ROADBLOCK:
Who’s got an artistic flair?

In this roadblock, one team member must help India “go green” by painting one of their new natural gas powered rickshaws in a new color. Team members must cover up all existing yellow parts and then paint the old black part green to get their next clue.

The following team members complete the Roadblock.

1- Starr
2- Andrew
3- Toni
4- Kelly
5- Sarah
6- Ken

After much yelling, screeching, painting and craziness, teams complete the Roadblock in the following order:

1- Andrew/Dan
2- Nick/Starr
3- Toni/Dallas
4- Ken/Tina
5- Kelly/Christy
6- Terence/Sarah

Teams are then instructed to navigate the Indian streets and travel to the Ambassador Hotel. Once there, teams should find the garden and the Indian Doorman waiting their with their next clue. This occurs in the following order:

1- Nick/Starr
2- Toni/Dallas
3- Andrew/Dan
4- Kelly/Christy
5- Terence/Sarah
6- Ken/Tina

And now, we get the Detour Clue.

DETOUR:
Launder Money OR Launder Clothes
*Launder Money: Teams must travel to a nearby banquet hall and create a wedding necklace that is made up of 10 rupee notes totaling 780. Once the necklace is assembled, teams must deliver it to a waiting bride and groom to receive their next clue.
*Launder Clothes: Teams must travel to the laundry shop where they will choose an ironing station and use a charcoal press iron to iron 20 clothes. Once completed, the laundress will hand them their next clue.
1-Nick/Starr choose Launder Clothes – and use their own gloves, FYI.
2-Kelly/Christy choose Launder Clothes
3-Toni/Dallas choose Launder Clothes
4-Andrew/Dan choose Launder Clothes – and we discover that Frat Boys do NOT launder clothes.
5-Terence/Sarah choose Launder Money
6-Ken/Tina choose Launder Money

Teams complete the detour in the following order:

1- Nick/Starr
2- Kelly/Christy
3- Toni/Dallas
4- Terence/Sarah
5- Ken/Tina
6- Andrew/Dan

Teams must now take a taxi to Baha’I House, the PIT STOP of the sixth leg of this racearoundtheworld. The last team to arrive MAY be eliminated!

1- Nick/Starr – who win an electric car each in honor of going green this leg.
2- Kelly/Christy
3- Toni/Dallas
4- Terence/Sarah
5- Andrew/Dan
6- Ken/Tina

And Ken and Tina finish last?!?!? OK. . . but this is the first of two non-elimination legs, and they are still in the race, but have to deal with the speed bump next episode.

ORDER NOW:
1st – Nick/Starr
2nd – Kelly/Christy
3rd – Toni/Dallas
4th – Terence/Sarah
5th – Andrew/Dan
6th – Ken/Tina

Next week: An Indian festival that looks strangely like Diwali. Tina and Kelly flip out. And I’m sure there’s other drama involving Terence, Bra-gate, and Dallas flirting with Starr in order to get closer to Nick. Until next time. . .
