Amazing Race Recap: Rushin’ Russians

Home

Before we get to the recap, Berry’s brother, I’m flattered by your posts but it’s making our end of the day family baths really stressful. If you’re going to keep posting do it under our secret pet nickname…you know what it is! And now, the thrilling conclusion….wait no, it’s not the conclusion. It’s just the continuation of last week’s episode of The Amazing Race! It was a cliffhanger and we had to wait a whole week to see if Goat Choke will be split in twain or if Mama Mia will be out. Berry has been so nervous he bit all of his fingernails off!

To review the teams still in this thing are:

Friday Night Lights (FNL)- Lexi and Trey

Team Dong- Jaymes and James

Twin N’s- Natalie and Nadiya

Mama Mia- James and Abba

and

Choke Out- Ryan and Abbie who formed an alliance with Goat Boys- Brent and Josh to create the super team Goat Choke!

In Moscow, Russia a fountain spouts water, nearby Phil stands on the race mat facing Team Mama Mia. He explains to them that they need their passports to advance and that since they are not the last team to check in they can try and produce their passports before the other teams check in. So Mama Mia slowly wanders into some building to see if they can call the police or something. They are talking about how the clock is ticking, but that doesn’t make them speed up.

“That passport really tied the room together.”

Goat Choke is still at the pool where the Goat Boys are continually failing at the synchronized swimming routine. The hard ass judge tells them that they have one more chance to get it right because the pool is closing. They perform their hearts out in a spectacular feet of grace and elegance. Not. They suck again and the judge has too much self respect to let them pass out of pity. She gives them the clue but with a price! They have a penalty. A four hour penalty. Goat Choke heads to the trees of love in separate cabs where Goat Boys come to terms with the fact that they will be out.

The water needs to be drained because it smells like goats.

Mama Mia is pacing in a hotel lobby or something seemingly trying to get new passports. Or are they trying to get their old ones? Well, they’re doing something. They explain that they are rock stars and they are used to having to pick themselves up when they’re down. Is that what rock stars do? I thought they stuffed their crotches and spit when they sing. They spit all over me whenever I’m in the front row. Oh yeah they do!

Goat Choke works to unlock the AR ribbon from the trees. Goat Boy Josh gets his like immediately. Then he goes and helps Choke Out Abbie who crumbled fast under pressure. She’s just a crying heap on the ground. Sad. Just sad. Josh helps her and both teams embrace. Goat Choke is having some serious love for each other. They head to Phil hand in hand.

It was foreseen that the men with goat hearts would come to collect her.

Fran and Berry are not just a sexy elderly couple who competed in Season 9 of the Amazing Race, they are also us, Mike Betette and Amanda Ohly.  We are similarly married and similarly carry backpacks all over the world.  Some people ask us "how do you keep the spark alive in your marriage?"  And to that we respond: reality tv.  Tons of reality tv.  Sexy, fighty, douchey reality tv.  We are both comedians living in Los Angeles and we love Robin Hood and we did NOT contribute to the Harlem Shake.  Google us for more, ya dirty stalker!

    I was so distracted by that sunburn that I couldn’t concentrate on anything else while she was on screen.
