Recap - Mow e'm down like grass

Mow 'Em Down Like Grass
Rob and Amber who were the first to arrive at 12:45p.m. will depart at 12:45a.m.

RRRRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!
*Make your way to Lucknow, India once there you must find the religious palace known as Bara Imambara and find the area known as Bouli for their next clue.*

Phil: Teams have arranged tickets Mumbai but from there they must purchase there own tickets to Lucknow. First teams must sign up for tickets on a charter flight to Francistown, Botswana leaving the next morning.

Ron and Kelly: 12:46am

Uchenna and Joyce- 2:08am

Lynn and Alex- 3:00 am

Meredith and Gretchen- 3:45am

After teams all getting on the same flight the battle for the best flight from Mumbai to Lucknow began once the plane landed in Francistown. As Rob and Amber and Ron and Kelly were the first teams inside, the ticket agent said it would take a while for the tickets to be issued. So the other teams, Lynn and Alex, Uchenna and Joyce, and Meredith and Gretchen headed outside. Quickly Alex found a lady who was willing to lend her cellphone to him to make a call to the travel agent while Rob was talking to the ticket agent. Alex found a flight arriving at Lucknow at 9:35 a.m for themselves, Uchenna and Joyce, and Meredith and Grecthen. When Meredith asked why he was doing this for them he replied, Because we want you guys in the finals with us. All we all know why.

During that time inside the small (and I add VERY small) airport Amber and Rob and Ron and Kelly had found a flight that got in 5 minutes earlier. Because Rob didnt want the other teams on this flight he told the ticket agent not to help them. (Another Rob move) And then told her if they asked why not he said to point straight at him *Rob doing the look*.Our relationship with Ron & Kelly is definitely one of mutual respect and friendship towards each other. So were working together, but make no mistake, Amber and I are in it to win it, Rob stated.

At one of the stopovers Gretchen had to go shopping, for a backpack, (you see how Meredith didnt get one). After look through what it seemed like millions to her and 3 to us, she found a blue and white one.
In Lucknow, India Rob and Amber and Ron and Kelly quickly realized that they had to pre-pay for there taxi and went into the kayos of trying to purchase there tickets.

After both getting tickets and finding a cab it was a race between them to Bara Imambara, it quickly being won by Rob and Amber when Ron and Kellys taxi needed to stop for gas. If it wasnt for bad luck, we wouldnt have any at all, Ron stated.
Back at the airport Uchenna and Joyce, Lynn and Alex, and Meredith and Gretchen were getting off the plane. Uchenna and Joyce got information from someone on the plane to go inside to the taxi booth. While they were buying there tickets there Lynn and Alex and Meredith and Gretchen were doing it the hard way outside. They were getting many different prices with a lot, and I mean a lot, of confusion, when inside Uchenna and Joyce got one and a lower price without all the confusion. Eventually all the 5 teams headed to the Bara Imambara
Rob and Amber arrived at Bara Imambara first with Ron and Kelly close behind. The teams had to put on scarves before entering.

Rob and Amber found the clue in the Bouli first when Ron and Kelly just seconds behind.
RIIIIIIIPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
*Make you way to a steel emporium, where you will find your next clue. To get there you must travel by horse-drawn carriage, otherwise known as a Tonga. Warning yield ahead*
Rob exclaimed, Gotta get to that Yield first, because if theyre any type of players at all, theyd yield us.
The other three team arrive later all rushing to the steel emporium. Stepping on the Yield mat, Ron & Kelly decided not to exercise their power after talking to Rob, standing directly behind the couple, who offered the advice, This might not be elimination, thats why were saying, Why chance it? Later, Rob commented, If I were in their position, I would probably yield them. Luckily, theyre not the brightest bulbs on the Christmas tree.

   Opening the next clue, the two couples found a Roadblock.
*In this Roadblock, one Team member had to search more than 600 different-sized tin boxes for one of ten containing a clue*
   They quickly (Amber and Kelly) got to looking through the boxes. Amber, with there good luck streak, found a clue very fast.
RRRRIIIIIIIIIIIPPPPPPPPP
* Hire a cycle rickshaw to take you three miles to the area known as Aishbagh and find a gas station, where you next clue waited.*
   After Rob and Amber left Ron and Kelly found there clue. They have the most unbelievable luck Ive ever seen of anyone in my entire life. Thats why we should have yielded them, Ron said.
   The other teams showed up, Lynn and Alex shocked that Rob and Amber didnt yield them. And Uchenna, Gretchen, and Alex decided to do the roadblock. Alex and Uchenna saved time by shaking the boxes instead of opening them.

Alex and Uchenna found there clue and headed to the gas station, leaving Gretchen at the roadblock. Frustrated she didnt give up and keeped on going. Finally she found the clue and they two headed for the gas station.
Both the front runner teams arrived at the detour at about the same time.
*In this Detour teams need to choose between Solid or Liquid. All the teams pick Liquid. To complete Liquid, Teams had to travel three miles to a local tea stall, select a tea cart and deliver a cup of tea to five specific employees from a list of ten in a nearby three-story office building in exchange for their business card. After collecting all five business cards, Teams must return to the tea stall to receive their next clue.*
Choosing to do tea Rob and Amber and Ron and Kelly made there way to the tea stalls. The teams discovered the difficulty of this task when trying to find there right departments to deliver the tea too. Rob and Amber made there first delivery after lots of trying and asking.

As Uchenna & Joyce and Lynn & Alex arrived to push their tea cart, last-place Meredith & Gretchen received a warm welcome from locals when they arrived at the gas station. Meredith and Gretchen decided to do tea after signing a few autographs (I want one from any of the racers, Lucky!).
Rob and Amber finished the task with Ron and Kelly still right behind and they received there next clue.
RRRRRRIIIIIIPPPPPPPPPPPPP
*Make your way to Phil on the mat, on top of the rooftop. HURRY! HURRY! HURRY!*

Teams were puzzled by that because it didnt say anything about the pitstop. Lynn and Alex and Uchenna and Joyce finished the task, leaving Meredith and Gretchen at the office building in last place.
Rob & Amber arrived on the rooftop where Phil waited. Expecting to hear news of another first-place finish, instead, Rob & Amber received a shock when Phil informed them that all he had waiting for them was their next clue. The Race wasnt over yet.

TO BE CONTINUED!!!

The placing stands as
1) Rob and Amber
2) Ron and Kelly
3) Lynn and Alex
4) Uchenna and Joyce
5) Meredith and Gretchen
