Water Supply or Air supply.

Water, help the locals get water. Wait for turn at well, return water to home owner.

Air supply, repair a bike, fix a tire puncture.

They really needed a special soundtrack for Air Supply.

Revenge of the delivery task!

And guess V&R's political party. 'Democrats? Invisible. Keep moving.'

So, chances of the Barack Obama Sign being used as birther proof?

And I know just how to lie
I know just how to fake it
And I know just how to scheme

The only thing which isn't proof to a birther: actual evidence.

Notice that the video U-turn sign does seem to point out who's ahead of you? Kynt just bit through a piercing.

I'm not sure it does, though, because Art and JJ didn't know that Dave and Rachel had already been there.

I'd have to review the footage, but for a moment, it looked as if there were three color palettes: full hues for teams which hadn't reached the station, washed-out for anyone who'd been there already, black & white for eliminated.

Shocker!

V&R, despite expecting it earlier, ultimately decide they're surprised to have been U-turned. Because friends don't target each other. And they've made so many.

Really not liking the water supply task. It may ultimately be a no-brainer, but there's absolutely no way to make up time short of bribing your way forward in the line.

Put on a bee suit and harvest honey from a hive. 500 grams of honey.

The border patrol just pulled off a miracle. Do you know how hard it is to sound more petulant than Rachel?

I'm thisclose to suggesting they may need to have their homone levels checked.

We get it, JJ. We know how you feel. Shut the heck up already. I can tell you're going to be a delightful fellow when you're 70 years old and watching kids run onto your lawn.

I think the entire audience would like to throw an U-turn onto JJ, pronto.

From seeing how upset they were in the previews, I assumed that Rachel and Dave had decided to U-Turn them, and I could understand why they were upset that the team they trusted had screwed them.

Instead, they reassessed the situation and decided it wasn't warranted, and in fact DIDN'T CHANGE THE ORDER AT ALL. Art & JJ would have come in third either way, so while I could understand them being a little annoyed the fury is really over the top.

I still like Art & JJ but not as much, it's pretty funny how childish they can be. Good move U-Turning Brendon & Rachel, they knew how long the water supply task would take and should have just been able to coast and enjoy through the rest of the leg. Instead it's veins-a-poppin silliness.

Nice scenery but extremely boring episode. The only ? was whether Bopper and Mark would finish 1st or 2nd to Rachel and Dave.

Loved the scenery, though. What a spectacular place to visit!

Yay, Bopper & Mark won a leg!!!

Shame Nary & Jaime didn't pick water supply, lost too much time on air supply.

Meanwhile, on the following show, a Chicago politician decides to run for governor of Illinois. Twist is he's already done time.

With no bunch point in the leg, a three-hour deficit, and a speed bump, Nary and Jamie were doomed, and no amount of editing could change that fact.

The producers can't seem to work out equalization when it comes to when to use bunch points in relations to non-eliminations.
Didn't mark & Boomer get a bunch point before they had to do their speed bump? If so, then the "Kdg" teachers should have had the same opportunity.

We thought it was nice that Nary & Jamie took time on their way to the previous PS to enjoy the animals, etc. In hindsight, those minutes could have made the difference - leaving 3 hrs after the other team or 2 1/2 hrs?
