Episode #6 Recap

The teams travel from Russia to India. All of the teams make the same flight and are therefore equalized(again). When they get to India they encounter a ROADBLOCK. In this roadblock, teams must use traditional tools to pile hay up to a marked line and fill a trough with water.

Team members decide who will do the roadblock.

Bert and Ernie: Ernie is doing the roadblock. Hey Bert, it's hay Bert. Ernie sings a Hay piling song and sails through the road block. Ernie: hey hey hey, I pile hay, every day, I pile some hay. Then I fill the trough fill the trough then I take things off take things off-Kick it!!! Take things off take things off!!! Bert: Ernie! This is the last straw!

Chewy and Han: Han is doing this one. Han works quickly piling the hay while Chewy grunts encouragement. When they are finished Han jumps on the camel takes off his hat and shouts look at me Chewy I"m Han of Arabia.

Gandalf and Saruman: Saruman takes the road block challenge for the wizards. But he is used to having evil henchmen to do his dirty work so he is slow and clumsily piling the hay.They also have an over anxious camel that goes for the hay accidentally knocking Saraman into the water trough. To add insult to injury as the wizards complete the road block and race off to the detour they both step in camel dung and it takes for ever to remove it from those pointy wizard shoes.

Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy: Fluttershy.Fluttershy is an excellent animal carer and easily completes the road block in no time at all.

Freddy and Jason: Jason
Jason piles the straw with no prolem at all swinging the pitch fork like he has used it before. and being the joker that he is, Jason pikes Freddy in the butt with it. This starts a bit of a fight between the two but wanting to beat the wizards they make up quickly and run off to the detour.

Hermione and Luna: Hermione.Hermione has an unsteady start but Luna keeps shouting encouragement and telling her to swing it like a bludger is heading her way and she gets into the groove piling the hay and filling the trough.

Leonard and Sheldon: Sheldon. Sheldon is terrified of camels. 'Leonard, I think it wants to eat me.' He keeps spilling the hay because his hands are shaking.Leonard: "Move faster Sheldon!" Sheldon: "Leonard that is a wild animal. Wild animals hate sudden movements. You'd never survive in the Savannah in Africa" Leonard" It's a camel. It can't hurt you." Sheldon" Leonard, it's spitting at me, Leonard it's spitting at me." Leonard"So spit back."

Frodo and Sam: Sam is doing the roadblock. Master Frodo, let me show you how we shoveled back in the shire. Frodo:'Sam I know this, you were my gardener remember?" Sam"Right, and I learned how to dig...." Frodo" Sam, this is no time for dreaming about gold digging, let's go."

The teams move onto the DETOUR. This detour is Movers or Shakers. In MOVERs teams must teams head to the Sanganeri Gate, choose two rickshaws loaded with barrels of hay and transport them 1.5 miles (2.4 km) to the Zorawar Singh Gate. When they reach the Zorawar Singh Gate, they have to search through the hay for a metal elephant charm which they could then trade for their next clue.

In Shakers teams should go to a junction (called Badi Chopar, intersection of Johari Bazar, Tripoli Bazar, Ramganz Bazar and Sireh Deori Bazar Roads) and dress in traditional costumes and join a local dance troupe to collect 100 (around US$2) worth of tips. They then give the money they earned to the band leader to receive their next clue.

Teams doing MOVERS:

* Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash
* Chewbacca and Han Solo
*Gandalf and Saruman
*Leonard and Sheldon


Teams doing SHAKERS:

*Ernie and Bert
*Frodo and Sam
*Freddy and Jason
*Hermione and Luna

*Freddy and Jason miraciously reach a U-turn first and they u-turn their former alliance members the wizards. That's one way to stab someone in the back.

MOVERS

Highlights:
*Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash spring into the lead and they kick over the barrels at the gate, and stealthily use hoof and snout to go through quickly and find the elephant charm and are off to the pit stop.

* Chewy and Han do really well at the movers detour and Chewy barrels his way through the hay to find the charm.

Middlelight:
*The wizards do okay and are 3rd to leave the detour.

Lowlights:
* Leonard and Sheldon struggle because the only exercise they really get is playing World of Warcraft.

Quotes
Chewy: (Mwroorrrrrrr mwrorrrr mwrorrrr mwrorrrr) (translation: I like to move it, move it!)
Han: Man if you're going to be singing Chewy, we should've done the other detour.

Leonard: Come on Sheldon. Didn't you ever look for the prize in the cereal box when you were a kid?'
Sheldon: I wasn't allowed to eat that cereal. Mine was all wholegrain and organic.

Rainbow Dash: Eat our sparkly dust, wizards.

Gandalf and Saruman get to the U-turn 'Galloping gollums, Freddy and Jason U-turned us!'
They have to go to the other detour which sets them back again.

SHAKERS

Highlights:

*Bert and Ernie. Every time Bert tries to put on his costume Ernie tells him he isn't Bert, he's not the real Bert and that he is going to call the MBB.

*Frodo and Sam do extremely well because they have the cute factor. They have to help Bert put his costume on and off as Ernie refuses to believe that he is truly Bert.

*Hermione and Luna do really well, as well as receiving their $2 they receive a number of marriage proposals.

Lowlights:

*Freddy and Jason manage to extort $2 from frightened onlookers.

* The wizards are terrible at dancing and keep tripping over their pointy shoes, so everybody keeps laughing at them. The wizards steal Freddy and Jason's clothes so they have to go to the pit stop in the dance costumes.

Quotes:

Ernie: In fact you're not Bert. Quick call the Missing Bert Bureau!

Ernie: Quick, shake it like you've got pigeons in your pants.
Bert: Ernie, there is a pigeon in my pants
Ernie: I know Bert, I put them, I thought it would help you shake better.

Hermione: This is fun, check us out in the next Weird Witches video!

Freddy: Jason, dance better, you're killing it.
Jason: Me, what about you. (Jason gives him the hip bump)

PIT STOP

* Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash in a cloud of sparkling dust blaze into the pit stop. 'Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash, you're team Number #1! As the winners of this leg of the race you've won a lifetime supply of mane and tail shampoo (That will be good for Rarity, says Rainbow Dash) and $5000 from the makers of the Tetris game.

*Chewy and Han arrive and both of them are singing "i like to move it, move it. except Chewy sounds like mwrorrr urghrrr rnrnnh" "Chewy and Han, you're team #2!"

*Ernie and Bert fly straight as a pigeon into 3rd. "Ernie and Bert, you're team #3!" Bert is surprised because he thought the Missing Bert Bureau stuff held them up.

*Frodo and Sam come into 4th but they tell Adam they are happy to be 4th and wait because they want to see where the wizards come in.

* Hermione and Luna arrive. 'Hermione and Luna, you're team #5"

*Leonard and Sheldon having finally found their elephant charm and being motivated by running behind Hermione and Luna arrive into 6th place.

*Gandalf and Saruman into 7th "Gandalf and Saruman says Adam you are team #7 however, you receive a 30 minute penalty for stealing Freddy and Jason's clothes and you will need to wait that out before checking in." The wizards taunt and tease Adam.
"Ooh boo hoo my name's Adam' says Saruman, 'let's all play tetris with my head."
"Ohh and look at my jaw," says Gandalf "It's almost a perfect square."
That startles Frodo and he asks Adam "Will you marry me?' to which Sam gasps in shock.
"I cannot marry you...because my jaw is a perfect square. '
As Adam gives them the penalty, they turn his head into tetris the video game.

Freddy and Jason come in. Adam tells the team they are the last team to arrive by flashing the words across his game screen face. The next thing that comes along the game screen face is "You look ridiculous." Freddy and Jason put out all their knives. Then on the screen comes the words in big red letters "But because Gandalf and Saruman received a 30 minute penalty plus a 4 hour one for turning my head into this stupid screen, you are still in the race!" They high five each other but they have knives in their hands so they stab each other. Hermione is kind enough to turn Adam's head back but not before playing a game of Tetris first.

Adam asks Gandalf and Saruman to come to the mat and tells them they are the last team to arrive and are therefore eliminated from the race.
