The Amazing Race - Season 13, Episode 6
Tonight, it's off to India, which has been the mental downfall of many a team. Not these guys, though, because as part of a season with overly easy tasks, this episode has...overly easy tasks. Not overly easy compared to other legs; there's actually some work involved this week. They're just easy compared with India legs in other seasons. Oh, and the random Spanish is still being thrown around, because if there's one thing people abroad understand more than broken English, it's broken Spanish.
Everyone gets on the same flight to Delhi, then heads for the Roadblock, which involves painting a car. Andrew finishes first, and the Fratties roar into the next part of the leg, convinced that their barely-scraping-by placements are all behind them. Now comes the Frattie domination! In news surprising to people born since last Thursday, the wonderful, healthy relationship between Ken and Tina starts showing some cracks when they're not in first place anymore. Terence incessantly nags Sarah as she slips into last place, which does wonders for one's concentration.
After finding a random clue-wrangler, it's time for the Detour, which involves either tracking down exact change in rupees, then finding a groom in a crowded reception, or ironing clothing. Most teams opt for the laundry, as it sounds exponentially simpler. Unfortunately for the Fratties, they find that their inability to press clothes in America has not magically melted away in India, and they quickly find their way back to the back of the pack, where they live. Nick and Starr retain their lead, followed by Kelly/Christy, Toni/Dallas, and Terence/Sarah (who surge during their quest for Indian change). That leaves the Fratties, who suck at tasks and whine a lot, and Ken/Tina, who get lost and whine a lot. Ken and Tina limp in to the mat in last place, but luckily for them, tonight is the first of the non-elimination legs. They'll have to contend with the Speed Bump next week, but they're still in the race. They both cry for some reason.
Overall Grade: C
