Thanks, that was very interesting! I didn't know that Phil had a blog.

I thought last night was one of the better episodes this season - though I was hollering - go get your bags!!!!!! I've been out of the country for business and my passport - NEVER leaves my person - that's just plain stupid! I wish the younger sister would have made a stand back at the dock - don't care for the attitude of the older - little sis is just along because she has to have a partner....

I am constantly in awe of what Margie can accomplish. Luke does appear to want to give up easy and I have to wonder how much he depends on Margie during their normal lives. Of course unless one is deaf there is no way one could ever know just how difficult his life really must be.

I'm suprised that it seems okay to some that the girl pushed Luke at the box box - but not okay for Luke to do the same It's just as bad for her to do that to him IMO. And for the parting bad word - no he shouldn't have said it - but that "lady" started the whole thing!

The red-heads are terrible - horrible mouths - hope they go home next! Can't stand their attitudes! - Your in a foreign country - no they won't speak English - duh!

Can't wait till next week

It wasn't the red heads that pushed with Luke it was the black sisters wasn't it? In next week show.

I agree the red heads should go, can't believe what comes out of their mouths.

Hi Nab - Yes you're right it was Kisha/Jen that pushed Luke - sorry my mistake - doesn't change my opinion on that she had no business pushing him - and the B.... comment - wow what a "lady"

 

[declansdad]

Not going to comment on the pushing until I see everything. These teasers never show the whole story.

I agree with you....what goes around comes around!! I feel Luke did no harm in giving the same treatment as he was given!

The one red head is down right nasty. It absolutely amazes me that she is so shallow that she truly thinks that while she is visiting a country they should accomodate her and speak her native English language. Get a clue sister....you are in their country....maybe you should have tried to learn some foreign language before you left the states for this adventure....she should be happy they are making an effort to communicate with her!

I agree.

Does anyone know, is Phil married? Because it sure seems like he has a thing for Margie...especially after reading the blog link posted, and them turning up to support him for an event, etc. Even at the mat when he checks them in, he pays a lot of attention to her and is all smiles.

I just watched the episode last night on the internet. They now have full episodes and not just a synopsis. We flew in from Spring Break on Maui and then went to a late Passover Seder on Sunday night so no Thai food for us. Since I was not home and the Masters went late I didn't record the full episode.

I guess there must be a rule that people have to have travel documents with them to check in. I just figured, they could check in and then go get their stuff. Maybe they're not allowed to leave the pitstop.

I like that new rule. A team cannot travel on the next leg without their passport, so it seems unfair that they would be able to "bump off" another team who is ready and able to race with all their documents.

As for Mike and Mark ... I don't know how I feel about the "no barter" rule. I think they have been running slim on their cash for a couple of episodes and simply ran out of money. I actually LIKED their attitude that the people of Bangkok deserved to be paid. I think that they bartered with full knowledge that they would be penalized. Perhaps they thought it didn't matter and that they were going to be last anyway.

Next week should be interesting. They are going to China. I still like Mike and Mark ... I hope there is enough of a "hurry up and wait" built into the race to eat up the extra 3 hours and 10 minutes left in their penalty.

I agree that the 3 hour penalty left over seems like a lot, but that is something that can very easily be made up at the airport. Looks like this leg finished in the late afternoon so they may be starting out in the middle of the night for the next one - I am sensing an airport equalizer next week.

Yes, his wife's name is Louise

We are too.

Well, this is not good news.


She's pretty though.

 

[TnTsParty]

how do you find out where they are going each week? Is it posted on the official website (I never have been there so I wouldn't know)

Can't wait to see what unfolds next week though with the sister's and Luke.

I was at home last Friday and he was on Bonnie Hunt (maybe even a rerun). He talked about their underwater vow renewal.

Does everyone know that Phil is riding his bike across the US?

Maybe he'll ride through your town!
