The fourteenth season of “The Amazing Race” continued its race to Thailand with 6 remaining teams. From Jaipur, India, the teams took flight to Phuket and the first to depart were Tammy and Victor. Behind them in respective orders were Mel and Mike; Kisha and Jen; Margie and Luke; Jamie and Cara; and Mark and Michael.

Buying the tickets from a travel agency, all the 6 teams were booked for the same flight. As soon as it landed, they have to find the gorilla statue that they had been given a photo of earlier. In a taxi race, all of them headed out to Phuket Zoo except for Mel and Mike who were directed to Putong Beach. Jamie and Cara were the first to find the Gorilla and the Road Block clue told them to take a picture with a tiger in the zoo.

A gut challenge, the picture taking with the tiger increased the anxiety when the trainer was revealed as a one-armed man. The road block also required the contestants to lie down while an elephant walks pass them and squats on them. From there, they were told to go to Tong Herbs Store where there were 99 drawers containing the next clue. The store owner could only open one drawer that was pointed by the team one at a time.

Meanwhile, Mel and Mike were still clueless on the Gorilla’s whereabouts and still wound up on the beach before realizing that they supposed to go to the zoo. Mark and Michael were the first to get the clue from the herb store.

The Detour was next, giving a physical challenge in the middle of the heat. In “100 Barrels”, teams must load 43 barrels of drinking water to a boat and lift the rest from the bottom of the ship to the deck. In “Two Miles”, teams must travel with a hand-pulled rickshaw with one sitting on and the other pulling for 2 miles.

Mark and Michael as well as Tammy and Victor chose to do the rickshaw while the rest did the “100 Barrels”. Once completing the detour, the teams should travel to Wat Thep Nimit Temple which was the sixth pit stop in the race. Mark and Michael checked in first but they had to incur a 2 times 30 minutes penalty for asking their cab to lead them to the detour and for messing up with the rickshaw.

Mel and Mike were then shown performing the 100 Barrels task while the race to the pit stop was going on. Tammy and Victor finished the rickshaw challenge but they left it at the park gate and had to reclaim it. Victor and Tammy finally stepped on the carpet to be the first and won a trip to Oahu.

With one minute left in the penalty, Mark and Michael had to swallow a bitter pill when Jamie and Cara overtook to be the second team. Margie and Luke were team number four and as soon as they checked in, Margie passed out. It was down to Kisha and Jen versus Mel and Mike. The former team got lost on their way to the pit stop while the latter were still struggling with the barrels. Mel and Mike arrived last and got eliminated.

The journey in “The Amazing Race” 14 continues with a visit to India. Departing first at midnight from Novosibirsk, Siberia are Margie and Luke who are told to fly to Jaipur, India via Moscow. Behind them are, in respective order, Tammy and Victor; Jamie and Cara; Mel and Mike; Mark and Michael; Kisha and Jen; and Jodi and Christie who were saved by non-elimination round last week.

The flight schedule enable all of them to depart at the same time. Arriving in Moscow, they travel to New Delhi before then start the race in Jaipur. The teams must find a tree that has the name of a village on it. Mel and Mike have a jolt of shock when the cab that has their belongings in the trunk, drive out of their sight. The taxi eventually returns and the driver promises to drive really fast. The teams are troubled with the heavy and messy traffic in the city.

Luke in particular, sees the slums on the side of the road and witnesses a child eating from garbage pile. He cries, so does Cara. Tammy and Victor are the first to find the tree. Underneath the tree, there’s a phone that can be used to call a number and get their next clue. They have to go to Amber Fort.

It is a Road Block where a team member must bring water and food for the camels using a traditional tool. Victor decides to make use of his strength and does the challenge. The throng of teams sans Christie and Jodi arrive at the place to do the road block. Victor finishes first and told to drive to a puppet store.

The next challenge is a Detour: Movers or Shakers. It will be another physical challenge in Movers since they have to transport barrels through the city using a bicycle. The clues will be inside the barrels. In Shakers, the teams will put on a costume and jiggle their body for money. Tammy and Victor choose to dance.

Meanwhile, back in the road block, Mel finishes first for Mike and they quickly head to the store. Margie and Luke follow behind, along with Jamie and Cara, and Kisha and Jen. Jodi and Christie must make up speed bump penalty where they must find a temple and use colored paint to decorate an elephant until the owner is satisfied. They catch up.

All of the teams opt to do the dance except for Mark and Michael who think that they excel at physical challenge. Shakers is proven as an easy one for Tammy and Victor, and they get the next clue, which is to go to Jaigahr Fort, the pit stop. The lawyers arrive first and win kayaks.

Mel and Mike finish second while Cara and Jamie must find a taxi that goes away with their bags. They find him and head to the temple. Kisha and Jen arrive third and followed by Margie and Luke. Cara and Jamie finally hit the pit stop so it is Mark and Michael versus Jodi and Christie. The former finish sixth, meaning Jodi and Christie have to go home.

Next week, from Jaipur, the six remaining teams will fly to Thailand where they mingle with the wilds and Margie gets overheated.

One more team falls down in the 14th edition of “The Amazing Race“. Married couple Linda and Steve end up as the last one to check in, in the second leg of the race and therefore, eliminated. They join Preston and Jennifer who have already been cast away in the elimination station, a utility provided for the eliminated teams to hinder spoilers.

In the Roadblock task, Linda made a grave mistake when she was supposed to walk down the mountain. While the others made it through, she got lost and asked someone to take her back up the mountain.
