We really started to get a feel for Colin in the last episode where he went from someone who bullies little people, into somebody we think might actually eat people's hearts while they are still alive. OK, that's harsh. He would probably kill them first, but you get my point. At the beginning this week, everybody had to make their way to Water Wiki[make that Wild Wadi - thanks theMatt], the largest water park outside of the United States. You got to give it to those Emirates, they know how to have a good time. Well, the water park didn't open until 8 AM, so of course all of the teams caught up with each other. Good thing too, because once inside the water park, they had to face the task of...going down a big water slide. Hmm. It's not called Amazing Race: X-Treme, so I guess I can't complain the challenge is crazy, but don't they usually reserve that type of easy challenge for the final one in the episode?

The producers obviously knew much more than us viewers, because it turned out that the next part was difficult, at least for two teams. Everybody had to drive for the airport, which Chip and Kim translated to "Take a Taxi" and the bowling moms left the bag with their passports at the water park after they had already made it part of the way to the airport. Both teams returned to the water park to fix their errors. Luckily for these two slackers, the next destination was Calcutta, India, which you may also know as the number one place to go if you want to get the plague. Yes, that plague. And I realize with all the people in Calcutta, the chances are a statistical anomaly, but you don't see the plague in Hoboken do you? The air service to Calcutta was limited and all the teams made it on the same connecting flights except for Chip and Kim who had to take a plane that landed 10 minutes later. Once in Calcutta, Colin worked hard once again to show his true nature, throwing around some not-so-flattering compliments about Calcutta and what a high point of civilization it was. Chomsky, he is not. Admittedly, everybody else was complaining about the smell, but colin was mean spirited and holistically unaware, so he sucks more.
