Like:
1. Nat/Kat (1) - Back to their inconsistent ways, but their teamwork is impeccable and they're enjoying themselves as they go.
2. Nick/Vicki (3) - Despite them having half the intelligence of Dandrew, I find myself rooting for them more and more each episode.

Meh:
3. Michael/Kevin (2) - As soon as the Chip & Kim Roadblock Rule^® kicks in, Michael's on the clock and this team is chatting with the Philiminator.
4. Brook/Claire (5) - Brook gets more shrill in every episode, but they're better racers than I expected.
5. Gary/Mallory (4) - Mallory is starting to get on my nerves, but Gary's presence keeps me from actively disliking them.

Don't like:
6. Jill/Thomas (6) - Not quite as obnoxious this time as in past episodes, but I still don't like 'em.
7. Chad/Stephanie (7) - I've hated Chad throughout the season, and Stephanie did her part in this episode to make me hate her too. They're a matched set of tools.

Philiminated: Nobody.
