Did Air Force get a Time penalty for using the Computer at the Fire Station?

At the start of the show, the host said that from here on out the teams can't use their computers. And technically Air Force didn't use their computer - they used someone elses.

But I find it hard to believe that It took Air Force an HOUR to look up Francis Scott Key on Ask.com. And an hour is specfically the amount of time Air Force said they lost by stopping at the Fire Station.

Too, when Matt is doing his confessional to the camera in refrence to stopping and getting help at the fire station - his comments look a little herky-jerky like chunks may have been cut out.
Specifically:
Visual shot of Matt - "These great firemen end up helping us out and"
Voice over of Matt - "We discover that Francis Scott Key wrote the star spangled banner while he was on this truce ship".
Visual shot of Matt - "It's pretty neat (the picture jerks here) to get that (the picture jerks again) little glimpse of you know the history, that's something we've done on every other leg of this".

The combination of what looks to me like an odd confessional edit for Matt in regards to the fire station, the odd hour that was lost, and the prohibition against using their computers make me think Air Force recieved a time penalty we weren't shown. (How else could the producers level the playing against the team of cyborg TERMINATORS sent back from the future to steal America's hidden treasure?)
