When we last left the teams they had finished a non-elimination leg in the Netherlands. This past episode they ripped open the clues and saw they were headed half way across the world to Peru. Laura and Tyler were first to depart and failed to read the clue thoroughly where it said they could book a better flight (if found) if they didn't want the recommended one. They booked the recommended one getting them to Peru at 8 am. They then went drinking to celebrate Laura's 30th B-day. This is a blind date team getting along really well.
J&J, and Hailey and Blair read the clue and are at the airport early enough to grab a flight that gets into Peru 12 hours earlier. Despite the bunching point of having to wait for some businesses to open they get themselves a good lead. Team Medical finish first while the lawyers finish second. It is also becoming somewhat clear when they check in at the mat that team medical is getting a bit of an edit. They seem to be developing more than just tolerance but almost starting to be friends. We'll have to see moving forward. The lawyers are simply dull TV.
The other three teams were on the recommended flight. Mike&Rochelle find the clue immediately and go on their merry way. They make no mistakes and confidently finish 3rd.
Laura/Tyler and Matt/Ashley both don't see the shoe shine station where the speedbump (Matt/Ashley) is and jump back into cabs. Laura begins talking about how she saw the speedbump and Tyler realizes that the clue has to be there. They have made a rare mistake but they get out and hurry back and recover. By the time they get to the roadblock (harvesting sugar cane) they have a significant lead on the hairdressers (who are just coming to the roadblock as they were leaving). Laura and Tyler get brought to the wrong detour but smartly choose to complete it instead. No amount of editing was going to make this suspenseful and the hairdressers are eliminated.
So to are superflyer and getbak. Cheese and ClubFlames still smug.
