Having a
Baby's Gotta Be Easier Than This! Last time, a battle at the first clue box spilled over to a battle at ANOTHER clue box. The combatants: Kisha & Jen and Margie & Luke. Both arrived at the Pit Stop at around the same time, but Kisha & Jen were awarded first place. This turned into an eruption of emotion as the teams went at each other. Meanwhile, as expected, Mark & Michael were eliminated. Some time later, the Race continues from... PIT STOP Kisha & Jen receive their first clue...
Kisha & Jen says that they are over the incident at the Pit Stop. One minute later, Victor & Tammy get going, having been to Beijing for the Olympics. They manage to negotiate a 5:10 flight to Beijing. One minute later still, here comes Margie & Luke, focused only on the game and nothing else. Kisha & Jen run into a bit of a problem on their way to the airport. Margie & Luke also get the 5:10 flight... But Kisha & Jen only get "the dumb look". They pull ahead when they discover that international credit is not taken directly at the counter. So they have to book elsewhere. Victor & Tammy try to trade their tickets for closer seats. Kisha & Jen do the same thing... only without the language problems. In the end, Victor & Tammy get seats in row 5; Kisha & Jen... row 8. Kisha & Jen are the subject of conversation as we wait for the plane to get here. They don't make small talk. "It's fake." All teams are on the 5:10 flight to... BEIJING, CHINA Tammy & Victor are out of the gate... and into a taxi. And the other teams .... mainly Luke... checks Kisha & Jen again! Now it's a taxi race. Cara & Jaime pass Kisha & Jen. Tammy's hoping that she doesn't have to massage feet. Cara & Jaime are the first to arrive, and the first to run into a...
Cara hates massages.. but she likes leading. She's super-ticklish, though. Kisha & Jen are next. Kisha gets her feet manipulated. Both start hurtin'... Really bad. Tears bad. Victor & Tammy arrive, and Tammy gets into the chair. She's very zen. Margie & Luke finally arrive, and Margie sends Luke inside. Just as Cara is finished.
Kisha finishes, followed by Tammy and Luke. The teams rush to find cabs again, but will they find a cabbie that knows where the natatorium is? Kisha & Jen find such a cab. Jaime and Tammy fight over another one. Jen is not a swimmer, so going to a natatorium is not going to be pleasurable for her. Tammy & Victor are the first to find the clue box...
Victor & Tammy can't swim, so they Sync. Turns out they can't dive either. Kisha & Jen can't swim either, so they Sync. Cara & Jaime go swimming, as do Margie & Luke. Jen freezes on the board, thinking that she's going to drown and die. They end up swimming. And the suits.. leave little to the imagination. It turns out that Luke is an amazing swimmer. Margie... even better. Turns out that they both tire easily and earn a respect for the guy who won eight gold medals. PROTIP for future Racers... anything you think you can't do, go and learn to do it before you apply. Cara & Jaime are first to arrive at the finish, so they're on their way to...
Kisha & Jen are holding on... literally... to the lap bars at the pool. Margie & Luke finish up as well, and forget about the Pit Stop, let's just get this suit off. Kisha & Jen decide to dive. Jen's fear of water is beginning to take its toll. Meanwhile, Victor & Tammy are getting better... but not good enough to continue. They're going swimming. The sisters are held back by Jen's fear of water. What will they ultimately do? They want to finish strong, so Kisha suggests going back to the swimming. Victor & Tammy are done with swimming as they walk past Kisha & Jen and head to the Pit Stop. Meanwhile, the other two teams are racing to the Pit Stop. Victor's leg is beginning to cramp. Back at the pool with life vests on, Jen finishes the first of two lengths in the pool, just as Victor's leg starts to cramp severely. Victor & Tammy eventually get into the cab and head away. Kisha & Jen finally complete the Detour and head to the Pit Stop. But who will be there first? Will ANYONE get there first? The cabs are at a deadlock it seems. PIT STOP Phil is standing by his happy lonesome. No happy local. Something is up... Cara & Jaime are first. "Jaime & Cara... You are the first team to arrive... but this leg of the Race is not over. You are still racing. Here's your next clue..."
