Jazmine & Danielle failed to read their clue in The Amazing Race 27 Episode 5 and were eliminated because every single task required people to wait in line, forcing whoever was in last to stay in last.
They start immediately with a road block, bungee jumping off a bridge. All teams are equalized with a 7AM start time.
Road block (in order of arrival): Denise, Diana, Tanner, Joey, Krista, Chris, Rick
Teams must now fly to Paris, France. All teams are on the same flight.
The next road block requires teams to get in a small plane to find a clue and then do a loop. Here there’s another line, as only three teams can go at a time.
Road block (in order of arrival): Justin, Josh, Logan, Tiffany, James Earl, Cindy, Kelsey
The reason for the high adrenaline tasks? The whole episode is one long Fitbit commercial.
Logan doesn’t see the third word of the three, which pushes her and Chris to the back of the line, all by herself waiting. That puts them an hour behind because the train leaves before they are able to catch up to the others.
The only other team not with the group is Justin & Diana. They got the first train out of the airport and the first train now. Despite their very easy leg, she keeps snapping at him.
The detour is a choice between drops mic and bust a crab. Drops mic requires teams to rap. Bust a crab requires teams to create and decorate a signature seafood dish.
Drops mic: Justin & Diana, Tiffany & Krista, Kelsey & Joey, Denise & James Earl
Bust a crab: Tanner & Josh, Cindy & Rick, Logan & Chris
Neither of these seems difficult enough for Logan & Chris to have any prayer, but they get a lucky break. Denise & James Earl get lost, which in itself is not a big problem, but then they do a language and rapping task, both of which neither of them seem particularly suited to do. They stay there for hours, not taking the hint and switching or taking the penalty.
The pit stop for this leg of the race is the Arc de Triomphe.
First: Justin & Diana
Second: Tiffany & Krista
Third: Joey & Kelsey
Fourth: Tanner & Josh
Fifth: Cindy & Rick
Sixth: Logan & Chris
Seventh: Denise & James Earl
It’s time to keep racing.
