55. "RE: Speed Bump--Drinking games!!"

You forget the obvious. All of the events took place in one night, within much less than 8 hours (since the first two teams started after 10 PM and finished in the dark, though sunrise was around 6 AM). Flight Time & Big Easy started out about 90 minutes before Brian and Ericka. They said that Brian arrived at the Kafka challenge about 2 and a half hours after them.
Thus, the speed bump was a one-hour penalty in a leg that probably took about six hours to complete for Megan and Cheyne. That's a huge penalty. But maybe it's not so big if your opponents take a Kafkaesque four-hour penalty.

The time taken to get there and get back would play more of a role in this leg where there wasn't a major bunching point before the speed bump.
I know the speed bumps are more of a time waster than a challenge, but it would be nice to see something where there was a good chance people would have to do it a couple of times rather than something it seems pretty much everyone will always get right on the first try.

Definitely this one - the sisters didn't know how close behind the redheads were and it can hurt when you try to hold it. I know everyone hates Dan but his move was brilliant tonight - he completely psyched out Big Easy and helped eliminate a physically strong team. Don't think he did it conciously but by telling him only the first letter, I think he messed up Big Easy - making him wonder if he was lying about the first letter.

I didn't recognize that island, but I sure recognized a lot of the rest of the scenes in Prague. What fun! I am certain I was in the pub down the stairs where they delivered the beer. I was in Prague in spring of '90, just a few months after they dumped communism and people were actually singing in the streets they were so happy. Then I was in Slovakia and elsewhere in the Czek Republic about five years ago. That area is one of my favorite parts of Europe.

Cheyne and Megan are team number 1. Each have won a 52-inch LCD TV, and Phil clearly stated that they will be one of the final three teams racing for a million dollars.
Goodbye, Globetrotters. Even if they don't accept Sam and Dan's broken statue, the brothers should still have plenty of time to go back and fix it and get back before the Globetrotters' four-hour penalty is over.
Now... who's going to start a "It's okay to bash the black guys" thread for not knowing the name "Franz"?

43. "Anyone else have the feeling"

... that something was edited out of this episode?
When the team that did the beer challenge they hopped in a cab to return to return to the first pub to get their last trays of beers.
As soon as I saw that, I figured they would be assessed a penalty at the pitstop.
Now, when they arrived at the pitstop, Phil said 'You're the third team to arive...' and it looked like he was going to same something else but they cut him off and go to a reaction shot of the team in slo-mo.
When they hug they stop and then she looks at Phil and her expression changes and I swear that she is saying 'What the hell...'
The editing is really, really odd here.
I'd swear they told them that cheated on the beer delivery challenge and made them sit out a penalty but didn't include it in the final edit for some reason.

Possibly but I think Nathaniel & Herbert were so far behind that the 30 min was up before the four hour penalty. Since the Trotters didn't have to do the cold storage thing (just as well - I don't consider them eye candy) the show would only have footage of Brian & Ericka sitting at the Pit Stop and footage of the Trotters sitting at the Roadblock. Not exactly riveting TV.

47. "RE: Anyone else have the feeling"

I was waiting for the penalty too. My guess was that the Globetrotters were so far behind, B&E's sitout time had no chance to knock their taxi-riding selves off the course: the producers decided there was no point in trying to build suspense.
It'll be a good question for their interview.

Editing. There would have been no drama with the Globetrotters so far behind. So we got a few more minutes of Flight Time and Big Easy and a montage of many of their best moments.
The Harlem Globetrotters are, after all, primarily entertainers.
Poor Phil, though. Unless they planned a 36-hour Pitstop he probably had to jump on a plane as soon as possible to get ahead of the racers.

56. "RE: Anyone else have the feeling"

I agree. Had there not been a penalty, Phil would have told them that they were team number 3 when they arrived. As soon as he said "you are the third team to arrive", I was sure they were going to get a 30-minute penalty for taking the cab. But maybe not.
The bar was closed already when they got there with the second beers, though it was still dark. I figured the bar probably closed at 5 AM. Since Brian and Ericka started the leg at 11:40 PM, they'd probably been going for about five and a half hours at that point, including the speed bump.
As far as Phil's schedule, I'll bet Meghan and Cheyne finished at around 3 AM and Sam and Dan around 4:30 or 5. Brian and Ericka -- even if they were given a 30-minute penalty -- probably finished no later than 7 AM. That shouldn't be much of a problem for Phil.

Yeah, I've no doubt you are right. But when the Globetrotters got to the next cluebox it wasn't "go to the deep freeze" it was "go directly to jail do not pass go..."
Meaning -- the producers are paying attention to the logistics in real time; the timing of getting the next leg underway, getting Phil ahead of the racers to film his bits and be at the Pitstop (in this case the Finish Line) on time.

48. "Sequestered at Pit Stops?"

When they arrived at the Speed Bump, Megan and Cheyne did not seem to know that it was Brian and Erica who got it. Something else happened earlier this season where teams appeared to not know something. I think it was when the Trotters gave a recap of Mika and Canaan at the Slide.
Is it possible they are sequestered at the Pit Stops?

They were probably asleep by the time B&E got to the Pitstop, and B&E were probably asleep when M&C got up and left.

53. "RE: Sequestered at Pit Stops?"

I wondered the same thing, and Dabo is prolly right with the explanation.
The same could happen with the next ep, as my guess is that M&C are many hours ahead of B&E after the beer spilling challenge.
