I am also happy to see team YouTube get the boot. I loved the way they showed subtitles for everyone in Scotland talking.

I missed part of the beginning of this episode. When I tuned in they are showing the infographic with a map of Europe with Phil saying how they are arriving in Scotland. Did I miss anything?

yes! you missed all the action at the airport. youtube & rollerderby thought they were on the first flight - hockey and singers tried to buy a ticket on their flight but it was full so they got one that got in 3 hours later. They later found an earlier flight but YT and RD didn't know about that.

OK, thanks. I'll try to find that online (I'm pretty sure that Amazing Race isn't on-Demand).

I dont like Max and Katie either but they are trying hard to win. They did the smart thing and get tickets for the earliest flight and they did try to put themselves apart from the crowd. So AR wise they did okay, just people wise, they suck.
I don't enjoy the YT but kinda felt bad when they 2 got U-turned by the others. I like it when they race individually or maybe with one other team but it seems like Survivor with the group hating the lesser group.

Love the kilt..would have kept mine on for the rest of the race but the bag pipes would have driven me insane. Worst sound ever next to Chinese opera singers.

good point. they are trying hard and their efforts have been rewarded. but they're still snooty people.

i don't like the "alliances" either. Iagree that AR has always been an individual race and should have stayed that way.

do you think it was strategic of max and katie to uturn roller derby tho, as they might be stronger than the singer sisters who rely on their prince charming hockey players?

I am also glad that they won! Nice to see the finale someplace I was familiar with, and I knew all the places except where the baseball stadium was. BTW, Haines Point is a pretty big place.

finally - a reality series where the winner was someone i liked! laugh out loud so glad max/katie didn't win. i didn't think the roller derby moms could win, but i thought they needed it the most so i would have been ok with them winning. but my favorite was the hockey players... they were comic relief throughout the entire season. and they were really the strongest team.

i loved the part where katie was like "he probably screwed it up because he's an idiot" when it wasn't even max's fault. sounds like a real winning relationship there...
