The Amazing Race 27 Episode 6 was another to be continued leg.
Everybody else has finished the leg, as Denise & James Earl finally complete the detour after 18 tries.
All teams are scheduled on trains departing at 7:22 to Rotterdam in the Netherlands. Some teams try to find something earlier, while Tanner & Josh just see an opportunity to go sight seeing.
First train (departs 4:19): Justin & Diana
Second train (departs 4:53 with a connection): Joey & Kelsey
Third train (departs 5:16): Cindy & Rick, Tiffany & Krista
Cindy & Rick think they’re going to Amsterdam. Tiffany & Krista think they’re going to Germany. Both are incorrect, but they still get where they’re going.
They are of course greeted by an hours of operation, but the advantage of getting in earlier is that the departure times are set 15 minutes apart based on arrival.
Justin & Diana continue to argue. More fun between these two. Let’s see if Phil blames it on him again.
The road block requires teams to search for a reproduction of a Van Gogh painting.
Road block (in order of arrival): Krista, Diana, Rick, Joey, Tanner, Logan, Denise
Getting a wrong answer will require them to run back and forth. They’re all out of breath, but nobody seems to have much difficulty.
As everybody else takes the tram, Cindy & Rick wait for a bus at his insistence, which moves them from the top of the pack to last place.
The detour is a choice between ship and skip. In ship, teams must navigate a training simulator ship through a storm. In skip, teams must jump rope while performing a clapping routine.
Ship: Joey & Kelsey, Cindy & Rick, Justin & Diana, Tanner & Josh, Logan & Chris, Denise & James Earl, Cindy & Rick
Skip: Tiffany & Krista
Everybody else selects the ship task, but the double dutch task seems well suited to the cheerleaders, which allows them to jump into the lead, though somehow they lose it.
The pit stop for this leg of the race is the Peace Palace.
First: Justin & Diana (win $31,873)
Second: Kelsey & Joey
Third: Tiffany & Krista
Fourth: Tanner & Josh
Fifth: Logan & Chris
Sixth: Denise & James Earl
Eliminated: Cindy & Rick
The final two teams pass each other at the train station, and it comes down to a question who made the biggest mistake. Getting on the wrong tram turns out to be worse than getting on a train that leaves later. Unlike some other teams that keep arguing, Cindy & Rick are already over the little tiff they had with the bus that ultimately led to their downfall.
