season 2 leg 8

due to that leg 8 and leg 9 are one episode in america we are spliting it into the legs of the race that they represent. The teams get ready to leave the chinese junk pit stop the first clue sends them to a statue of tin hau by bus the first bus doesn’t leave till 6am and the statue doesn’t open till 8am this allows the trailing teams to catch up although Oswald/Danny use time stopping at a hotel for directions instead of going straight for the statue but still make the hours of operation. Tara and Will go for the fast foward at a buddha statue and than back out and than go for it and than don’t not that it matters other than wasting money. Gary/Dave don’t like how calm Oswald/Danny are the next clue sends them to the muarry house in Hong Kong which Blake/Paige think is in the western district big mistake. The next clue is a detour of driving dragon boats through a course or walking a course wearing a lion costume. Chris/Alex Gary/Dave and Tara/Will choose the dragon boat while Oswald/Danny and Blake/Paige choose the lion the next clue sends them to the syndey opera house in Australia. Booking tickets Gary/Dave have many phone numbers. Oswald/Danny go to a hotel to go to a travel agency and are told to wait for their tickets while they wait they go shopping (seriously not helpful use of money). Meanwhile the other teams book flights via Bangkok at the airport while Oswald/Danny go via Singapore. The Singapore flight lands first and Oswald/Danny are first to the roadblock using slang terms on a tour of Sydney you can’t return to your partner till you have done all the tasks. The task is complicated and Will and Blake after finishing the first part take their partners through the rest of it until they realise they made a mistake. Oswald/Danny win a prize for first but last is spared by a non-elim.
1. Oswald and Danny (pretty lucky hope they don’t run out of money)
2. Chris and Alex (finnally back consistent)
3. Gary and Dave (holding strong but really need to not make more comments on other teams)
4. Tara and Will (made a mistake but hang in there)
5. Blake and Paige (non-elim) (will they catch up again)
prediction for first Chris and Alex
prediction for winner Oswald and Danny
next team eliminated Blake and Paige
