Five eliminations in a row—dang.

"We're always gonna be friends."

Okay ... :)

OK, just so you know how to do this, if you ever have to count fence posts/slats/bricks/etc. with a partner, you count off, let’s say, 100 and have your partner hold that post. Then you count the next 100, and have your partner move up. That way, if you lose count, you stay in the last 100 and don’t have to recount from the beginning.

“Jen’s upset she was called a bitch.

An awful name to call a woman. Awful behavior to bring about being called that.

I think he showed great restraint in not throwing her overboard , kind of like A Place in the Sun

[Maven]

I expect this will be a non-elimination leg ... They’ve had 4 eliminations in a row.

As far as I know, there are no non-elimination legs this season.

I was waiting for one person to go one way and the other go the other way, each counting half the pickets in half the time and then add the two. If it didn’t work after 2 tries, then you’re no worse off than another team after one try.

The girls got eliminated because the driver wouldn’t ask for directions.

Episode #5:
TK & RACHEL WALKING TALL
AS SHANA & JENNIFER FALL

As Teams raced through Vilnius, Lithuania, dating couple TK & Rachel ran a smooth leg to claim victory, while Nick's confusion at the Roadblock almost cost his Team everything. In the end, he battled back to defeat friends Shana & Jennifer, who battled each other for control of their Team, resulting in their elimination.

Ow, my hernia.
Ow, my hernia.
Ow, my hernia.

After a close footrace, TK & Rachel claimed first place, a far cry from their near elimination in the previous leg. Phil awarded the ecstatic couple a 10-day trip for two from Travelocity to Japan.

Arriving on the mat in last place, friends Shana & Jennifer received the bad news from Phil that they had been eliminated from the Race. A tearful Jennifer remarked, "This Race means so much to me. I'm just so disappointed and so hurt that we got eliminated." Shana added, "We come from a comfortable life. We get manicures and pedicures and facials and you come here and all of that goes out the window. I'm just amazed about what we've accomplished."

Eliminated

There will be only one or two non-eliminations. They cut back on them so the race would be more suspenseful.
