The boys either don’t notice or care to help the girls figure it out because they are already chaining up their sled. In to save the day are the nice guys from Oklahoma. Once again, the guys offer assistance to the Ice girls and Danny actually helps them get their truck pointed in the right direction. OK-Tim is married with a baby but I think that the possibly single Danny is angling for the affections of the LA girls.

Team Beardo spies out their window what must be the Viking Longhouse and sprint through the doors. Planting their feet on the mat and looking like they belong right with these Viking impersonators, the guys are the first team to arrive and each get $5,000. However, that sneaky Phil whips out another clue and tells them they are still racing because this leg isn’t over yet. So, while I was wrong about it being a non-elimination, there still wasn’t a team eliminated. (My son’s reaction to the first "leg isn’t over yet" fake-out of the season… “WHAT?!?” Exactly, my boy, exactly.)

Before we get to the inevitable “to be continued…” splashed across the screen, we get to the Express Pass bartering teased last week. Travis & Nicole are searching for the Viking Longhouse, still in third behind Jason & Amy, when they pull up beside a clearly lost and confused Tim & Marie. With Marie trying to get them to tell them where they think the Pitstop is, Travis deduces that she hasn’t a clue at all. With authority, Nicole throws down the offer, “We will tell you where to go, but we WANT the Express Pass first.”

Marie hems and haws about it to which prompts the doctors to say, “All right…we’re leaving.” And then we see “to be continued…”

The previews don’t show much about how this plays out but if Marie was smart they would simply follow the doctors to the location. But then you run the risk that they will try to lose you and then you will really be screwed. Also, there is a wonderful Double U-Turn ahead.

Until next week, when we hopefully get a team eliminated at the end of this long leg, have a good one.
