amazing race 18 episode 8

the first clue sends them to vienna austria and get their clue using a cars mirror. the first flight has two stops but gets in 30 minutes earlier than going via one city only the cowboys take the one stop route (again putting them behind with the flights). kent/yvxsins relationship is in trouble having many fights. the prize is a new car for winning the leg. putting the car into reverse isn’t easy the stop is scholls schloburg which is a castle. the cowboys catch up to gary/mallory at the car which upsets gary the struggles with it. some teams stop at a petrol shop to get directions. the next stop is a library in vienna with zev/justin in the lead. ““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““““the cowboys are still last at this point. kent/yvxsin consistantly argue a lot. the next clue is a detour of “long and hard walk” teams have to deliver a couch from the sigmend museum through the streets “quick and easy meal” requires teams to eat a huge local meal in 12 minutes which teams who try it find impossible. zev/justin keisha/jen and gary/mallory attempt the food but don’t succeed so they and the other teams do the couch. teams take the subway to the food who chose it. teams lie about the food so gary/mallory try it which isn’t nice. the couch is quite heavy but still doable. the difficulty with the couch mixes the order a bit. as the teams who ate catch up to the cowboys. the globetrotters get the clue 1st and the teams are sent to old town salzburg and a resturant (the globetrotters don’t realise their 1st). jet says might it be quicker to cary him on the couch not true. kent/yvxsin continue to fight over kent being saugh (he hurt his back in china appartently). gary/mallory are quite behind at this point. the cowboys finish the deotour 4th ahead of zev/justin just. in salzburg kent/yvxsin are still fighting while zev/justin pass the cowboys. the roadblock is chimney sweeping not too hard. big easy starts the roadblock 1st and finish before the next team turns up which is zev/justin (zev does it). the pitstop is the villa trap. yvxsin and keisha take the roadblock for their teams. zev/justin win the cars by passing the globetrotters. cord takes the roadblock for the cowboys but they are still ahead of gary/mallory (gary takes the roadblock showing up when the cowboys leave). gary/mallory finish last but are spared by a non-elim but will do speed bump next leg.
