1. Name a team besides Tyler and James which has a chance in hell of winning this race and why?

Dusty & Kandass - because "We want to set ourselves as positive role models for young people everywhere. We want to bring happiness and world peace to all. By winning the million, it will give us the opportunity to help those less fortunate and make our world the bestest place it can be...."

2. On what did Duke and Lauren spend all their money on the last leg?

A shower at a bath house - Duke got the heeby jeebies after Tom/Terry hugged him.

3. Which team had the most money at the start of this leg and why?

Peter & Sarah - They hoarded all of their money in her leg. Sarah does her organ grinder monkey thing on an as needed basis.

4. Why is it against the rules to beg or sell your stuff this leg, but not against the rules to stiff a poor, third world cab driver?

The Vietnamese government caught the previous episode where Sarah was doing her organ grinder monkey thing and immediately contacted TAR producers that such lewd behaviour would not be tolerated in Vietnam.

5. When Peter and Sarah arrived at the detour, well behind Erwin and Godwin who were already on their way to the Pit Stop and at least a couple of other teams, why did the screen flash “Peter and Sarah, 1st Place”?

To save themselves from hearing the holier than though speech where he would start going into a meaningless diatrad about how they've overcome all obstacles in the face of adversity... blah blah blah.

6. Why was it unsafe for Tom and Terry to ride a motorcycle, and who is it unsafe for?

T&T being so airy fairy, they would have just gotten blown off the motorcycles. Having T&T behind you? Who do you think it's unsafe for?

7. How will Tom and Terry get back at Dustee and Candace for cutting in line at the travel agency?

Steal their tiaras and their vaseline.

8. Before Dustee and Candace did the coal detour, what’s the dirtiest thing they’d ever done?

Have to think about that one...

1. Name a team besides Tyler and James which has a chance in hell of winning this race and why?
Erwin and Godwin - They've already proven that karma works. Now all they have to do is feed the poor, help little old ladies across the street and rescue a wild animal from a poacher's trap.

2. On what did Duke and Lauren spend all their money on the last leg?
Counseling. Like medical care, it's cheaper in Mongolia.

3. Which team had the most money at the start of this leg and why?
Dustin and Kandice - They set up a roadside booth and hawked glimpses of their pageant crowns.

4. Why is it against the rules to beg or sell your stuff this leg, but not against the rules to stiff a poor, third world cab driver?
Because the world is screwed up, man. It's just screwed up.

5. When Peter and Sarah arrived at the detour, well behind Erwin and Godwin who were already on their way to the Pit Stop and at least a couple of other teams, why did the screen flash “Peter and Sarah, 1st Place”?
The assistant producer in charge of screen caps is bucking for a raise. Just wait until next week when he renames Tom and Terry (Tweedle-dee and Tweedle-dum) and Dustin and Kandice (Miss Take and Miss Topertunity).

6. Why was it unsafe for Tom and Terry to ride a motorcycle, and who is it unsafe for?
It was unsafe because that road was just so packed during the rush hour. Uh, no. That wasn't it. It was unsafe because they didn't have helmets despite the appearance of Tom's huge melon. It was unsafe for the American viewing public. Smashed craniums equal TV 14 MA ratings.

7. How will Tom and Terry get back at Dustee and Candace for cutting in line at the travel agency?
They'll replace their Vaseline (for shiny smiles) with wood filler.

8. Before Dustee and Candace did the coal detour, what’s the dirtiest thing they’d ever done?
Banging on paint filled drums during pageant week. Or was that Sandra Bullock?

9 and 10. Short answers: Compare and contrast two of the following pairs:
a. Vietnamese coal and David’s coal
b. Senator John McCain and Ron of Ron/Kelly (TAR7)
Comparison - They are both brave men who wore the uniform of the US military and who subsequently wanted to be in some type of race. Contrast - One wants to be the President of the United States, and one wants to meet the president of the Country Music Association.
c. Paris Hilton and Hanoi Hilton.
Comparison - They both imprison men in a hellish nightmare. Contrast - One is constantly in front of us so we can't ever forget her painful life lessons, and the other is rarely discussed and we are in great danger of forgeting its painful life lessons.
d. Duke and Lauren’s Birdcage and Robin Williams/Nathan Lane’s “The Birdcage.”

I was busy last week and didn't get a chance to do this. Better late than never.

1. Name a team besides Tyler and James which has a chance in hell of winning this race and why?
Rob and Kimberly: The Freddie/Kendra precedent makes it possible, if not probable.

2. On what did Duke and Lauren spend all their money on the last leg?
Clearly not maps. Maybe books by Focus on the Family. Lauren would be a lot happier if she just stopped being a pervert, after all.

3. Which team had the most money at the start of this leg and why?
Tom and Terry. They've saved a fair bit by not bothering with grooming supplies.

4. Why is it against the rules to beg or sell your stuff this leg, but not against the rules to stiff a poor, third world cab driver?
LMAO. I guess because the cabbie consented to be screwed over.

5. When Peter and Sarah arrived at the detour, well behind Erwin and Godwin who were already on their way to the Pit Stop and at least a couple of other teams, why did the screen flash “Peter and Sarah, 1st Place”?
The caption maker at CBS is trying to mess with Internet spoilers.

6. Why was it unsafe for Tom and Terry to ride a motorcycle, and who is it unsafe for?
I would think it would be most unsafe for the poor Vietnese drivers. T and T are kind of flighty. I can just see them turning around real fast to look at something at exactly the wrong moment and down goes the motorcycle.

7. How will Tom and Terry get back at Dustee and Candace for cutting in line at the travel agency?
They will say catty things behind their backs. That'll show 'em.

8. Before Dustee and Candace did the coal detour, what’s the dirtiest thing they’d ever done?
They competed in the Miss USA pagaent.

9 and 10. Short answers: Compare and contrast two of the following pairs:
a. Vietnamese coal and David’s coal
b. Senator John McCain and Ron of Ron/Kelly (TAR7)
c. Paris Hilton and Hanoi Hilton.
d. Duke and Lauren’s Birdcage and Robin Williams/Nathan Lane’s “The Birdcage.”

Senator John McCain and Ron were both POWs, but Senator McCain didn't use that as an excuse to quit the service. They are both gluttons for punishment, having voluntarily put themselves up for public scrutiny.

Paris Hilton is unnaturally skinny. People staying at the Hanoi Hilton are unnaturally skinny.

Molaholic: I'll have this week's up soon. It's Thanksgiving for us this weekend, so I'm still a bit busy. Yikes.
