1. The Hippies left before the Frat Boys at 4:48 AM.
Then they hid in the dark in bushes so they could jump out at them.
They get to the zipline almost two hours early
So BJ and Tyler were acting quite squirrelly.
BJ climbed on the roof of the Nerds car, which they didn't condemn.

2. The Hippies ziplined across a valley shouting out, "Bonsai."
There next stop is Moscow Russia, so again they'll have to fly.
They will all drive to a charter bus first.
Lake's driving and behavior is the worst.
Lake goes the wrong way from the Pit Stop, which he can't justify.

3. Lake stands on the roof of his VW looking out at the sugar cane.
He tells Michelle, "If you don't shut up..." he's the one being "a pain."
"Dang gummit. I was hoping we wouldn't go to Russia," he said.
We wonder if he'd rather go to a Third World Country instead?
And what about India, if he had to travel on a crowded train?

4. They all do the zipline easily, and drive to catch a bus.
Michelle leaves her fanny pack in the car and Lake starts to fuss.
Fran and Barry are left behind.
That they're "alone" boggles their mind.
But, "it's not over 'til it's over," is what they both discuss.

5. All the teams depart Brazil for Russia on the same flight.
Then some teams share their taxi vans. Everyone flew all night.
Eric and Jeremy are happy to be with "D and D."
Which ones will "Take the Plunge" at the water sports facility?
To finish the swim, Wanda has to overcome her fright.

6. There's a moment of panic when Dani can't find her fanny pack.
Dani and Danielle have to turn around and catch a taxi back.
The Frat Boys are sad to see them go.
And hope it's not a fatal blow.
The Pinks team up with Wanda and Desiree to get back on track.

7. "Oh my God, we're going to lose because of this,” Wanda cried.
She couldn't dive deep in the water, even though she tried.
We're surprised Michelle had such a negative attitude.
For some reason she thought they would have to swim in the nude.
When her mom conquered her fear, Desiree was filled with pride.

8. Most of the teams don't want to search for the tiniest nesting doll.
Two teams follow Ray and Yolanda. Is that a bad call?
Jeremy joked, "This was Ray and Yolanda's dumb idea."
Yolanda retorts, "Find your own d**** detour," and we'll see ya!
The nesting doll teams finish this leg as the top five teams overall.

9. There are 15 hundred nesting dolls on a platform by a band.
Lake calls it, "rotten mammy jammers??" This wasn't what he planned.
The Russian music is "messin" with Ray's head.
But Fran and Barry seem dazed instead.
We saw the teams' joy when they held the minuscule clue in their hand.

10. The taxi drivers couldn't find the trolley park. Why the mystery?
The teams had to scrub the trolleys inside and out and they're quite filthy.
The two female teams were getting their trolleys clean
When Team Mojo and the Nerds appeared on the scene.
These four teams are at the back of the pack. Will one soon be history?

11. This long episode ends when two teams reach the Red Square.
It's beautiful in daylight. They're glad to be there.
Phil greets each team as they arrive at the mat.
He drawls out, "However," and they think, "Oh drat!"
This leg is continued. Phil hands a clue to each pair.....
