Wow!
Spoiler:
I've never seen a team buy tickets for someone else BEFORE they got there. Sure they will with them all standing there, but WOW! This should be exciting! What if they don't get to the airport in time to use them???

I think Rebecca will compassionately euthanize her girlfriend this round - and in the process be eliminated from The Race.

I thought someone in TAR 5 or 4 did that. They had an agreement with another team to buy tickets for the other if they got to the airport first.

It upset other teams waiting in line behind them.

I'm trying to recall who that was. I almost want to say that it was the dad and son team from Season 4.



I'm sticking with Team Geezer. They have no money and need to beg in an area where there might not be many tourists or opportunity to get money.

And their luck has to run out soon.

I voted Don and M.J. in the poll. They are just too sad to watch.

That's placing a LOT of trust in the other team. Don't know if I could do it!

They're actually fairly decent at challenges. The problem with Gus and Hera is neither one apparently has any sense of direction or knows how to read a map.

It's optional - I noticed it last week. The lurkers even come out of the woodwork and vote.

Team Metamucil should go tonight unless it's a leg where the racers only get 1 buck at the start, there's just no way they'll be able to beg enough money in Senegal.

I voted for Don/Mary Jean but I'm sure it will come down between either them or Gus/Hera.

It's going to be really hard for Don/Mary Jean to start off dead broke.

I vote for team geezer as well ... they have just made too many stupid moves to compete with younger, more athletic teams.

It's way past time for the Don and MJ to go. Too bad, MJ doesn't stand for Mary Jane. That could have made for some great lines.

I voted for Don/Mary Jean this week. They'll need some really good luck to not be last again.

I have pictures of myself in those slave holdings at Goree Island and in the gateway of the "door of no return". It's obviously a really eerie experience. Each room in that compound was for a different type of slave, whether it be virgins, children, adults, elderly, etc.

I teared up a bit during those scenes.

That guy continues to be a prick. Even when he wins, he loses!

Every time I start tolerating Jonathan's rudeness, thinking he's probably just really competitive and frustrates easily, he shows what a true bastard he really is. I don't know if anyone would have stolen their packs (like Victoria thought), but for him to then shove her and repeatedly yell at her like she was a dog, I wanted to cry for her. I can't imagine ever getting involved with someone like him, but he probably didn't act like that when they were dating. I know people are edited into characters for a lot of reality shows, but he really seems like a huge POS. I still think they'll make it to the final four though.
