The Amazing Race 14 is down to the final leg and tonight either Margie/Luke, Tammy/Victor or Cara/Jaime will win the one million dollar prize. Leaving from China, finally, the teams headed out for Hawaii. Tammy and Victor were off first and were told to go to their final destination: Maui. They learned that the first flight was the next morning, meaning all three teams would catch up and it was any one’s game in Hawaii. In Hawaii it was all about finding a certain beach and Margie/Luke fell behind rather quickly. She wanted their driver to speed, and for once he told her it was illegal too. At the beach the teams would then have to season and move a roasted pig to a luau. Tammy/Victor were there first followed right behind by Cara/Jaime. Both were carrying their pigs when Luke/Margie arrived but quickly got things done and were also carrying their pig across the beach.
During this portion of the task Tammy and the girls were having issues with the pig. This allowed Margie/Luke to pass both teams and finish the task in first, while Jaime/Cara struggled thanks to Cara continually dropping the stick. Jaime freaked out on her like she was a foreign taxi driver, showing she’s not racist. She just can’t keep her mouth shut. Tammy and Victor finally made it to the luau followed by Jaime and Cara. Margie/Luke finished their pig while the other teams arrived and were off on a ski jet to find a clue among 100 buoys. It was probably meant to equalize the teams but could prove helpful considering how far ahead Margie/Luke seem to be. At the ski-jets Margie was off to find the buoy, there she and Luke had a bit of a scream since he kept yelling “Mama” which we learned is annoying her lately. Apparently it annoyed her so much that she dumped both of them off the jet, sending them into the water and allowing the other two teams to catch up.

The Amazing Race left us in Austria where Linda and Steve, covered in pie, were eliminated. Tammy/Victor were first out where they were told to head to Bucharest, Romania. As they drove the siblings began their episode long argument. Tammy felt that Victor was pushing her around and being too powerful, she’ll eventually crack just you wait. While the first few teams left, Tammy/Victor arrived at the airport where they got the first flight. Back on the train Amanda/Kris played it smart by befriending a local. Others seemed to use the same strategy as they had help booking flights. Too bad nobody else could get on the flight with Tammy/Victor though as they flew to Romania before anyone even arrived at the airport. Ok maybe not as the flight had issues, forcing them to return to Romania. Guess their lead wasn’t that big a deal after all. Everyone ended up leaving BEFORE their failed airplane, putting the siblings behind. Ok anyone else’s head spinning from the sudden turn of events?
It ended up that Tammy/Victor landed on the same flight as the last few teams, could they suffer the Romber curse? Guess the airport drama is back as the first quarter is all about the planes. Victoria and Brad’s flight was canceled, thanks to fog, putting them a full day behind. Finally in Romania the other teams raced on and were off to the gymnastic Road Block. One team member would have to learn four gymnastics moves in order to move on and it was bound to be hilarious. Amanda was up first and did rather well. Margie had some issues though, since Luke wouldn’t wear a leotard but Mike would. Amanda/Kris were the first off to their next location but the other somehow caught up. They found that their train wouldn’t leave until the morning, allowing the others a chance to catch up and forcing them to sleep on the streets.

Last week the Amazing Race aired its 14th season premiere in a fresh, new format. Tonight the race continued in Switzerland where the teams began by speaking about Margie and Luke. The show is really putting an emphasis on the mother/son team which means they go tonight or they are there for the long haul. Since they were the first to hit the mat, Margie and Luke were first off and found out that they would be traveling to Munich, Germany. As the rest of the teams raced to the airport many played it smart by borrowing their taxi driver’s cell phone. All but Margie/Luke and Mike/Mark called ahead, meaning one of them wouldn’t be making the flight. As the two arrived at the airport Margie/Luke were able to secure the last non-reserved early flight while Mark/Mike were pushed into the latter flight. All but the brothers and Christie/Jodi made it on the first flight, meaning they were possibly fighting it out for the last spot at the mat.
In Germany the teams raced to a paragliding Road Block. Tammy and Victor arrived first with Tammy taking on the task. A twist to the paragliding road block was that if the wind conditions were not good enough to fly they could wait or walk down the mountain, taking an hour hike. While everyone arrived up the mountain the two lagging teams finally arrived in Germany. Considering so many had to wait for the wind to stabilize, they sure had a shot of catching up. Back up on the mountain Tammy hiked down and several others followed along. Only Mel ended up staying for the wind as the rest raced down. His groin was pulled during the cheese task, making it impossible for him to run down the hill. He waited so long that the other teams caught up, meaning they were instantly in last place.

On last weeks Amazing Race a colorful leg sent divorces Kelly and Christy packing. This week the remaining five teams (finally) leave New Delhi, India in hopes of reaching Kazakhstan…. very nice. Nick and Starr were, once again, the first out of the gate since they are “oh so amazing”. Toni and Dallas were not far behind but once they caught up the sparks began to fly. Dallas and Starr began to flirt once again and decided to work together, with their mom and bother, to gain seats on the first flight out. At the airport all the teams met up for some airport drama. Nick/Starr and Toni/Dallas got the first flight out while Ken/Tina and Terrence/Sarah fought to also get on the flight. Although Ken and Tina left before Terrence and Sarah, they were able to gain the last seats and flew away in the first plane. Terrence and Sarah then got the last tickets on the second flight while Dan and Andrew left a few hours behind them.
After landing in Kazakhstan the three teams on the first flight rushed to the first location: a chicken factory. There they realized they couldn’t do anything until 7:30 in the morning, creating an equalizing and allowing Terrence/Sarah and Dan/Andrew to catch up. When the gates finally did open everyone rushed to the clue box. It was time for the rounds Road Block where one team member would have to search through several chickens looking for a golden egg. Inside the clue was also the last Fast Forward for the season. Both Terrence/Sarah and Nick/Starr rushed to bypass all tasks, meaning one would have to return to finish the rest of the leg. Inside the chicken coupe Toni was first to find an egg. She and Dallas then rushed to find a crane truck while Andrew and Tina found an egg. They ended up leaving around the same time and both were on their way to find a crane.

The Amazing Race is back for its 13th season and after winning their sixth Emmy in a row they have a lot to stand up for. Starting once again in Los Angeles, California the new 11 teams began from the Colosseum in California. After getting to know the teams the race began as the teams learned they were to fly to Belize for their first leg. Airport troubles once again struck as most of the teams went into the wrong line for tickets. After finding the new line Terence/Sarah, Mark/Bill, Aja/Ty, Nick/Starr, Kelly/Christy and Ken/Tina landed the first flight out.
While in line the frat brothers Andrew and Dan mentioned how they hoped the flight would be delayed, giving them a better shot as the second flight was three hours behind. Some didn’t take to that too well but it did of course jinx the flight as indeed the first flight to Belize was delayed, but not enough to arrive after the second flight. When landing in Belize the teams had to first find a sandwich shop where they would get a clue to transport a candy cart to a plaza. Terence and Sarah pulled out ahead quickly thanks to Sarah being able to talk the language and they landed the first spot on the sign in sheet in the end, giving them a 9:00 departing time.
