The non-elimination leg was pretty predictable to show up this episode but surely the team that it saved was not. After their 12 hour rest period it was time for the teams to leave Cambodia. The next stop on this amazing race was Deli, India where all the teams took the same flight. They were required to use the same travel agent to book flights, giving them a nice equalizer. There Starr and Dallas, of two different teams, rekindled their “friendship” from the second episode. Both said they would want to be friends off the race but on it seems akward as Dallas’ mom Toni and Starr’s brother Nick are always there to break the two apart.

As the teams arrived in Deli things quickily became a taxi race. Nick and Starr were first to get out while Dan/Andrew and Toni/Dallas followed behind. Ken and Tina were the last to depart as they had trouble finding a taxi and seemed to get the worst driver ever. Nick/Starr and Dan/Andrew arrived at their next location first with a road block to come. What they had to do was choose one of the team members to first mask off a tut tut car then paint the rest green. Apparently India is going “green” so they want to express that on their small taxi’s. Starr chose to do the task along with Andrew. Toni/Dallas and Kelly/Christy then arrived followed by Terrance and Sarah who struggled finding the location. Ken and Tina were last to the spot as their taxi driver, as I said before, had no idea where he was going.

The Amazing Race 13 visited an amazingly scenic country this week in Cambodia where towns float and temples spire over the land. As the teams left New Zealand there were some issues at the airport. Tina and Ken were first out thanks to their fast forward from last week and arrived at the airport first. Although they knew Terence and Sarah were behind they feared they may just catch up. Of course the two did just that even though there were some issues along the way. Terrence got pulled over for speeding on the highway which put them a bit behind but luckily they were able to catch the same flight.

Terence and Sarah weren’t the only ones to equalize the game at the airport. Toni/Dallas and Christy/Kelly ended up at the airport at the same time and had a bit of a confrontation. Kelly and Christy were making fun of Dallas, calling his Teen Wolf which didn’t sit well with Dallas. I don’t think he heard them but realized they were talking about him, luckily he let it slide. With those two teams plus Nick and Starr on the same flight that left Dan/Andrew and Aja/Ty still flight-less. Dan and Andrew landed at the airports just in time to make the flight but only after much coaxing. The travel agent told them they couldn’t get on but going to the front desk helped the guys out at the left Aja and Ty alone in New Zealand.

When was the last time you heard someone say their profession was mining for gold? It’s been awhile since the gold rush but America’s Toughest Jobs is bringing it back! The crew remained in Alaska this week, returning to Anchorage for their mining ordeal. With their bosses in tow the 11 remaining workers hiked to gold mining central: the creek. At the job site the crew was taught how to both pan for gold as well as drudge. Their first day was all about panning the good old fashioned way.

For the first three or so hours nobody was hitting any gold. The bosses said they weren’t necessarily looking at how much gold they found but how well they worked individually and as a team. After a few hours of no luck Sandy, once again, stepped up the game by finding a chunk! Rick and Michaela followed shortly there after and everyone was on the gold rush bandwagon. Although everyone found SOME gold, others were just not getting it. The boss couldn’t believe how some of the crew, especially Ben and Phil, were just sloshing the pans around. They felt after a full day of panning they should have got the hang of things but apparently its harder than it looks. Phil, who was lacking in the gold department, got knocked down another knock by actually getting knocked down. While crossing the creek (a big no no) Phil took a tumble and could have been washed away in the frigid water. Luckily only his bucket got washed away and he came out with only  a cold.
