On this episode, teams continued to race around Prague. They had to get themselves to the Spanish Synagogue, which gave them a clue to go the Ecotechnique museum. Once there, they had to do the roadblock: answer a bunch of telephones until they got 5 letters, then unscramble the letters to make the word "Franz" for Franz Kafka.After that, they had to get to the Cryocentrum and literally "chill out" for two minutes in a 180 below C room. It was like the opposite of a sauna, really. In the meantime, Brian and the Shrew had to do the speed bump - drink flaming absinthe before they did the roadblock. Oooh, tough task. *rolls eyes*
Once they were done, they had to get to the Charles bridge for the detour: legend - cover a gollum with clay and deliver the super heavy thing to the rabbis or lager - deliver beer to rowdy drunk soccer players while dodging drunks on the street. Two teams chose legend, one team chose lager and the other never made it that far. After the detour, it was off to the pit stop.
Don't forget to check out last week's rankings, from the awesome kidflash.
On to the list!
Rank. Names (last week's rank)
1. Meghan/Cheyne (2) - They are great racers and complete many tasks with ease. How many first places have they had? In my opinion, they are the only team worthy of a win at this point. If they do win, they will deserve it.
2. Brian/Ericka (3) - I still cannot deal with Ericka, but Brian is great and the bottom is reserved for the most annoying team. If they win, I won't like it, but at least they have fought super hard and came from behind at times along the way.
3. Sam/Dan (4) - It's OK for them to take another team's taxi, but they have a fit if someone wants theirs. Also, Dan had no problem working with Big if he could have got the word from him, but would he help anyone else? Hell no. Not that he should have just told him it was Franz, but he would have expected Big to do that for him. Hey Dan... SHUT UP. SHUT UP. SHUT UP. SHUT UP. SHUT UP. If they win, I will hate it because they rode some coattails to get here and they suck at life.
Philiminated: Herbert/Nathaniel (1) - There are only two words to describe this... "Epic Fail". You know the last place team just passed you and then you are going to wait 4 hours??? Not a good move, especially when there are only 4 teams left. It's too bad, really. The race will not be the same without them.
