Desert heat to icy cold, and Lance/Keri got the heave-ho.

"Departure Times"
Posted by vince3 on 10-25-09 at 08:16 PM
Meghan/Cheyne 8:17am
Brian/Ericka 9:59am
Flight Time/Big Easy 10:42am
Gary/Matt 10:45am
Sam/Dan 11:34am
Maria/Tiffany 11:47am (who wanted to please leave Dubai....)
Mika/Canaan 11:54am

Casino Time Gap is 3:37

Dubai Creek Golf and Yacht Club, choose a briefcase before you go.......

Roadblock: Row a dinghy to a yacht and receive a watch. Once they return to the dock, they have to figure out that the time 8:35, is the code to open their briefcase and get their next clue.........

Next up: head to the Abra Station, an old Water Taxi place in Dubai.....


Detour: in an ancient market..... Gold or Glass

Gold: weigh out $500k's worth of gold.... Caution: exchange rate on the monitor is constantly fluctuating.......

Glass: assemble 12 Hookas from a box.....

Globetrotters are having major problems with their breifcase, because they thought the code is something like 87?......

New to the forum, but, If the watch show 8:35, it's 8:35. Don't over think/over complicate! Oh wait, that's me.

never mind.

Used a calculator so could there be a time penalty coming for the poker chicks?

It's Sam/Dan's calculator, so they'd get that same penalty, if fair's fair, then......
"RE: Cheaters?"
Posted by HobbsofMI on 10-25-09 at 08:39 PM
I just backed it up and saw it was Sam/Dan's so I would agree if it said not to in the clue.

Teams after the Detour must head to the Aquaventure section of Atlantis, Dubai and ride down the Leap of Faith water slide to get their next clue......

Meghan/Cheyne chose Glass and eventually got done.

Brian/Ericka initially chose Gold, but got frustrated by the fluctuating prices...... and have switched to Glass and are having problems there, too.....

Gary/Matt have chosen Glass
Sam/Dan have chosen Gold (turns out that they brought a calculator with them $2 from Wal-Mart!)
Tiffany/Michelle have chosen Gold and borrowed Sam/Dan's calculator!
Globetrotters have chosen Glass as have Mika/Canaan......

"RE: TAR15 Episode #5 ECST"

Pit Stop: Dolphin Bay Cove beach at the Atlantis Dubai resort.

Meghan/Cheyne are team #1, won a couple of Jet Skis

So that Fast Forward really counted for two legs. Without it Maria & Tiffany might have won this leg.

"RE: TAR15 Episode #5 ECST"
Posted by vince3 on 10-25-09 at 10:46 PM
This was the dream scenario for a FF winner: No plane travel and no Hours of Operation to neutralize their FF advantage.

I think they're heading into Europe next leg, so that will change unless Meghan/Cheyne get really lucky on a flight out of town........

"RE: TAR15 Episode #5 ECST"
Posted by vince3 on 10-25-09 at 08:45 PM
Maria/Tiffany are 2nd, and Sam/Dan are 3rd.

Globetrotters switched to Gold, and asked the person at the counter for a calculator!

Brian/Ericka are 4th (They're a matched pair: She's afraid of water, he's afraid of heights......)

Gary/Matt are 5th

Mika/Canaan's argument are in place at the top of the ride

Globetrotters are finally done at Gold, and are heading to the resort.


No matter what, there will be major carnage at the Casino....... whether the Trotters finish 6th or last............

Nope...I would not cheer but sit there and wait. You know you can still out run them and you'll be down the slide in 10 seconds behind them.

Just when you thought Canaan was an even bigger creep than Lance was, Big Azzwipe demonstrates who is the biggest creep of all. He's truly a role model for us all.
"RE: TAR15 Episode #5 ECST"
Posted by J Slice on 10-25-09 at 08:58 PM
A surprisingly douche-y move by the Trotter. I was displeased.

Though to even imagine myself pitching a fit like Mika, the task would have to involve being locked in a sealed coffin full of tarantulas.

Come on... WATER SLIDE!

Can we just kill both of them. I'm not sure which one is annoying me more. Both Mika and Cannan. There are ways to encourage a scared person, and if you know there is going to be something like this on the show figure out how to get past the crippling fear before the show and not hope this is the one season without the height thing.

Yep, the trash talking was a bit much, but I kinda expect some of that from athletes, and they may not have known how long that was going on.

"RE: TAR15 Episode #5 ECST"
Posted by J Slice on 10-25-09 at 09:15 PM
Seriously - water and/or heights inevitably pop up on this show.

Fear of badgers or dirigibles? You're probably fine.

Posted by vince3 on 10-25-09 at 08:58 PM
If Mika doesn't slide down that slide very soon, they're gonna be in last, because here come the Trotters!

Mika now has 2 minutes to either slide or let the Trotters pass them!

Official kicks Mika out of the way and the Trotters who trashed talked Mika into not going anywhere! Canaan has slid down, but Mika's refused! She's walking down to the bottom.

Globetrotters are 6th!

Mika/Canaan are last. They have been eliminated because of Mika's fear.

"RE: TAR15 Episode #5 ECST"
Posted by tjcrew on 10-25-09 at 09:02 PM
If Mika had any thoughts of going down that slide, she would have done it the second she saw the Globe Trotters- surely she knows she can't beat them in a foot race, so she her best hope was to go before they had gotten into their suits up there!

So it appeard (at least on camera) that Canaan forgave Mika for getting them eliminated. Will be interesting to see if they fight in Sequesterville.

Know what I was thinking as they arrived at the mat? Phil saying
"You are the last to arrive.................
however, this is a non-elimination leg..........
however, because you did not complete the last task, .........
you have been Philiminated."

Well, that wouldn't have happened. ;) Although we can wish it would..

They would have incurred a time penalty that would be added at the beginning of the next leg...just like the Poker Girls got at the end of the first leg...
