The racers are down to the final 3! Who are the final 3? Who won this leg of the race? This race sure has taken the racers all over the world. This leg of the race took them 1,300 miles to Seoul, Korea. The teams had to drive to the DeMilitarized Zone near the North Korean border. Is that not scary? I do not think the show will do something that will endanger the safety of the racers! There they had to search for Seungil Bridge where they will find the next clue!
The clue instructs them to raft down the Hantangang River, board a humvee to go to the US Army Base Camp Casey. River rafting seems to be dangerously fun as the racers found out! Wow! It gave the racers the adrenaline push that they need! I will probably be scared to death doing the river rafting! Would you?
In Camp Casey, 1 team member had to choose a headband, walk among 200 soldiers practicing tae kwon do and find the matching headband, trying not to get hit by the tae kwon do-ers! Is there such a word? Well, there is one now...with me...Ha! Ha! Ha! Once the soldier is found, he would kick a board to reveal the next clue!
Where will the clue send them? By subway to Seoul World Cup Stadium. They had 2 options: Full Throttle or Full Bottle. In Full Throttle, teams had to travel on foot or subway to Mokdong Ice Rink, change into a speeding skating suit and skate a 2 person relay for 24 laps! Goodness gracious!!! That is a lot of laps! Suppose you do not know how to skate??? Tough!!! You will just have a sore behind!!! LOL! In Full Bottle, teams had to travel by foot or subway to Namdaemun Market, put on delivery uniforms and carry 6 giant ginseng roots without breaking any glass jar. Once the task is done, the clue will be given.
Next task was to go to Han Riverside Park or Yeouido Hangang Park to search for a statue of an airplane where the next clue is. The next clue finally instructs them to the Pit Stop at Temple of Heaven, the imperial shrine built in 1897 for the first and only emperor of Korea.
Who were the first team to arrive? Brook and Claire! But, alas! they incurred a 30 minute penalty for taking a taxi, instead of the subway to Mokdong Ice Rink! That cost them a trip for 2 to Argentina! Well, at least, they are still in the final 3!!! Jill and Thomas were the second to arrive who were ecstatic to receive the good news! Nenenenene, Brook and Claire, that is what you get for not reading the instructions!!! How many teams were eliminated because of non-compliance to the rules? Plenty!!!
Nick DeCarlo and Vicki Casciola were eliminated! Final 3: Jill/Thomas, Brook/Claire and Nat and Kat! Who are you rooting for? Well, the prize money is 1 million... Nat and Kat are doctors, they do not need the money. I am rooting for Brook and Claire and not for Jill and Thomas just because there are no 2 women pair winners yet!
