We are now four episodes into the Amazing Race 13 and it seems the gloves are finally coming off. On this leg of the race relationships were mended while others were strained. But in the end the two girls from South Carolina were eliminated from the race. At least they got a hug from Phil’s dad in the deal. After last weeks confrontation between Christy/Kelly and Nick/Starr I thought thinks were over but with news about Starr’s U-Turn beg things got a little messy. Although we didn’t get to see it, Kelly and Christy confronted Starr about asking Aja to U-Turn them. Apparently it didn’t end too well as both teams are even more at each others throats and it didn’t change at all during this leg.

Since everyone was in Bolivia in order to get to the next destination of New Zealand they all had to drive directly to the airport. There some tempers fumed as Kelly and Christy tried to eaves drop onto everyone else’s flight plans. Aja and Ty, who are dating long distance, also had a few tense moments as Aja was trying to control. Ty called her Fidel at one point but they ended up making up before the flight, which everyone was on. In New Zealand the teams ran to the marked cars and were off to find a knot. To get their next clue they had to simply untie the knot, where their clue was hidden inside. Some times had some trouble adjusting to the opposite side of the road driving. Luckily no teams were in an accident but Ty did run over the curb and get a flat tire. Aja wasn’t too happy about it and it kind of set the mood for them for the rest of the leg.

On the latest America’s Toughest Jobs the crew go skyward as they clean, paint and fix lights 60 stories in the air as a bridge maintenance crew. Following last weeks leave of Rie everyone realized that it was still any one’s game. This week the job was bridge maintenance and not everyone was excited. Both Chris and Steven were afraid of heights of weren’t looking forward to climbing on top of the bridge. Michael was excited though as she loves heights and did well along with everyone else.

As the crew moved to their first job they had to walk on a small pathway underneath the road of the bridge. Chris had some trouble, clinging to the side of the wall, and everyone had a laugh at his expense. When they got to the location to haul their tools up the seven remaining players had to walk out onto a small platform, hang over the side and pull their tools up. Steven was up first and although he was scared he was able to pull through. Chris had some trouble though as he stood back too far and almost spilled his tool container to the water below. Everyone else easily walked out and did the job moving onto the next.
