Amazing Race Season 2: Episode 6 Recap

Note: Last week we forgot to specify that the teams are now in South Africa. Teams fly from South Africa to Botswana.

First up is a ROADBLOCK.
In this Roadblock, that team member had to do a traditional bushmen hunting activity (throwing a spear into a swinging bag) 20 feet (6.1 m) to hit a moving target, once the target has been hit, teams would receive their next clue.

Team members doing the roadblock:

E.T: ET picks up the spear and doesn't quite know what to do with it.He turns it around slowly and then starts spinning it on his one glowing finger while Alf is shouting from the sidelines "Throw it!" So ET throws the spear to Alf who almost gets hit. "No! not at me at that bag! Try to hit the Bag!"Alf rolls the spear back to ET who gets it right this time.

Susan: Susan picks up the spear and gets ready to throw it but BOB stops her.
Bob: Wait let me get a picture of you because you look like an Amazon warrior princess right now. Bob takes a photo as Susan throws the spear. BOB: Yup that should get us into to Amazon quarterly and if not then we'll try for Sport Illustrated.

Bumblebee Bumblebee rolls up to take his turn at the road block just as Susan is bending over throwing her spear. At the sight of Susan's big ol booty Bumble Bee honks his horn and starts playing I like big butts! BOB hears this and joins in singing: "I like Mark's Butt and I can't deny". As Bumblebee goes to throw his spear Susan starts wiggling her big butt to distract him. It takes him a few throws before he hits the bag.

Hannibal: While Susan BOB and Bumble Bee are all having a good time pumping out the beats and butt wiggling, Hannibal takes advantage of the situation. He quickly throws his spear hitting the target with deadly precision. Then he grabs a second spear and throws it at Bumblebee's tire causing it to deflate. In the commotion that follows Hannibal and Jigsaw race off into the lead.
Optimus patches up Bumblebee and gets him road worthy again.

Roger: Roger takes his spear and whacks Mark in the Butt while he is watching all the commotion that is going on.
Mark: Ow! what did you do that for?
Roger: I just wanted you to know that I can hit the Mark.
Roger throws the spear hitting the bag then grabs Mark by the arm dragging him off.

Scooby: Shaggy and Scooby take a while to get the hang of the road block. Scooby thinks they are playing fetch at first so he keeps bringing the spear back to Shaggy.Finally Shaggy tells Scooby to think of the bag as an olive and the spear as a big tooth pick. With that Scooby spears the big olive and they race off.

Simba: Simba rears up on his back legs hurling the spear at the bag with his powerful jaws for a direct hit.Nala:" Great shot, usually it is us trying to dodge those things rather than throwing them. "

Waldorf: Waldorf takes his spear and pokes Statler, who is sleeping on his feet, in the butt with it.
Statler: Ow! hey what was that for???
Waldorf: I just wanted to be sure you got my point. Dohohohohohohoho!

It's now time for a DETOUR

In this Detour, teams choose between Food or Water. In Food, teams used a device called Kika to pound corn until it was mashed, then transferred to a basket, once it reached the specified line, the woman supervising them would hand them their next clue. In Water, teams had to fill 12 ostrich eggs with water from an underground spring using a reed straw, once completed, they had to bury them to the ground before receiving their next clue.

Teams doing FOOD
Alf and E.T
Bumblebee and Optimus
Hannibal and Jigsaw
Scooby and Shaggy

Teams doing WATER
Bob and Susan
Mark and Roger
Statler and Waldorf
Simba and Nala

FOOD
Highlights

*ET and Alf both try snorting the corn powder and end up sneezing all over Jigsaw and Hannibal.

*Scooby and Shaggy get right to work and finish the task quickly and somehow much to the amazement of Adam and the TV audience Shaggy has managed to whip up a plate of corn nachos too.

Lowlights

*Hannibal and Jigsaw arrive first to the detour and make a maize maze to put the other teams behind them. But much to their amazement, Shaggy and Scooby and Alf and ET quickly find their way through it while the autobots simply go into 4 by 4 mode and drive in a straight line through it flattening the corn plants.


Quotes
Hannibal and Jigsaw: Aaaaaa my eyes.

Bumblebee while pounding the corn plays Sledgehammer by Peter Gabriel.

Shaggy: Hey Old buddy ol pal, where'd I put that hot sauce?

WATER

Highlights
* Simba and Nala work very efficiently carrying the eggs gently in their powerful jaws and digging quickly with their claws.

*Statler and Waldorf plod along but they seem to be having a good time and laughing to themselves a lot.

Lowlights
*Susan has to roll BOB off to the side of the Detour away from the other teams because He keeps watching Mark and yelling: "ooo ya suck it, that's it suck it big boy". This makes both Susan and Roger mad. Susan threatens to step on him if he doesn't get his head back in the game and Roger starts singing: "Let me show him the door. Little blob hey, the door is that way!"

Quotes
Statler and Waldorf: You suck.
No You suck.
It looks like we're both sucking. Dohohohoho

Statler and Waldorf: Hey Adam. This race is like a badly cooked breakfast. Oh yeah why's that? It takes a long time and it stinks. Dohohohohohoho Last one to the checkin mat is a rotten egg! and off they run.

Simba to Nala: How's it going?
Nala: "Can't talk. Egg in my mouth.

Susan: If you don't behave I"m gonna stomp you like a little blue grape and make you into toe jam.

PIT STOP

Bob and Susan arrive at the pit stop. "Bob and Susan, " says Adam, "you're team #1!!"In her excitement Susan starts bouncing BOB up and down like a basketball. screaming we won we won!As the winners of this leg of the race I present you with this plate of green jello and a spaceship.Bob is so dizzy from being bounced he sees 3 jellos and tries to go for the one in the middle but accidently zigzags over the check in mat right into the path of Mark and Roger who come in next.Mark trips over BOB landing on top of him to which BOB says:Hola :) How you doin senor Biker shorts? Seeing this a grumpy Roger yanks Mark up and on to the checkin mat.

"Mark and Roger, " says Adam, "you're team #2 and that means you are still in the race!"

Shaggy and Scooby run to the checkin mat. "Shaggy and Scooby, " says Adam, "you're team #3 and are still in the race." He steals one of Shaggy's nachos to which Shaggy replies angrily "NACHO cheese !"

Statler and Waldorf arrive. "Statler and Waldorf, " says Adam, "you're team #4 and that means you are still in the race!" Adam*disappears from the checkin mat* Statler"You know I always wondered how they did that." Waldorf"Probably like this"(he says fading completely) Statler" Yep that' s probably how he did it."

Adam comes back with a plate of Shaggy's chocolate and tabasco covered nachos in time to checkin the autobots as team #5. "Bumblebee plays "I feel good, i knew that i would now."

Adam: Hey... That's Nacho cheeeeeeeese! They say: Hey Adam look over there, is that Elvis?When Adam turns his head they have run off with his Nachos.Adam: Hey... That's Nacho cheeeeeeeese! Shaggy comes over and give Adam a hug saying he knows how it feels and gives him a scooby snack to make up for the lost nachos. Adam says "Simba and Nala, you're team #6 congratulations you are still in the race!"

Why Alf and E.T got so far behind..E.T ended up stopping to repair an old man's telephone. The old man couldn't figure out why he kept saying into it "E.T phone home, E.T phone home."And Alf stopped to make some cat fish in a toaster,leading to a slight incident with the fire department which has all been sorted out now. As they approach Adam says "Alf and E.T....you are team #7! That means you are still in the race!"

Hannibal and Jigsaw arrive in last. As Hannibal and Jigsaw approach, Adam says "Hannibal and Jigsaw you are the last team to arrive...I am sorry to tell you you have both been eliminated from the race." He disppears like he did before with Statler and Waldorf. Hannibal and Jigsaw grin "Looks like we're having pork tonight with frogs legs for an appetizer." They giggle fiendishly as they leave for their exit interview.
