After twelve hours’ rest, all teams learn that their next stop is Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The first flight leave at 12:45, while the second’s about two hours later. All teams get their tickets for the first flight, except Zev and Justin and Lance and Keri. But at the last minute, they manage to get on the first flight. So all teams are even again.
They are asked to go to the Foreign Correspondents’s club, and ask their editor for their next ASSIGNMENT. They are given a black and white picture of a woman and are told to find a suite named after her. The woman is Jacqueline Kennedy, but many of the teams could not recognize her. Some even thought she might be Queen Elizabeth.
After asking around, they learn the suite is in the Hotel Royal. Here, teams face a detour, cover or wrap. In cover, teams have to sell four motorcycle helmets to a family of four. While in wrap, teams have to go to the Russian Market, and find a scarf seller who’s wearing the scarf of the same color that each team have. Only Lance and Keri choose cover, other teams all set up for the market. (I’d think that selling four helmet for 10 dollars is a much easier job, and it proves to be. )
The next clue leads them to Wat Tul Tom Pong and a Roadblock awaits them. One member must try to act like a monkey, to perform three monkey moves successfully. Zev and Justin and Sam and Dan are neck and neck at this point, but Sam and Dan manage to finish first, and moving ahead.
Then it’s time to head to the pit stop, Wat Phnom, a Buddhist temple. Zev and Justin go by taxi, which giving them quite an advantage, and they arrive first. However, after checking in, they find out Zev’s passport is missing. According to the rules, any team can not move on the race if they don’t have passport, thus will be eliminated. Throughout the whole episode, I don’t get to see that they have dropped anything on the road. So I’m as confused as them where could they lose that passport. Anyway, after going over all their staff, they call their taxi driver and start their search.
So the teams that finish from 1 to 7 are as follows, Sam and Dan, Flight Time and Big Easy, Brian and Ericka, Gary and Matt, Meghan and Cheyne, Lance and Keri, Mika and Canaan.
Tiffany and Maria are the last team to check in, however, as Zev and Justin are still out there searching for the missing passport, they are saved, again. (Three times’ a charm, let’s see if they will be lucky a third time. )
So, in this shocking turn of misfortune, Zev and Justin are eliminated. It’s really sad to see them go, I believe they have a very good chance of winning this race. But that’s life, you never know what’s in store next.
