Amazing Race 3 - Episode 4

The Amazing Race 3
"Did You See How I Stopped It? With My Face!"

Screen Capture of Amazing Race 3 Episode 4 - Eve & Heather are told that, because of their penalties, they have been eliminated.
The teams leave Dunnottar Castle to walk a mile and a half to Stonehaven harbor to find a message in a bottle - a bottle of Port. So, now it's from Aberdeen to London. The Twins Derek & Drew and brothers Ken & Gerard are off to Cologne (and then had trouble with a Lufthansa flight out of Cologne, yet were able to get the flight held for them). Everyone now heads to Porto in Portugal, to the Cálem Port Lodge. The lodge has a Detour - Old School or New School - Old school is delivering one barrel (weighing 90 lbs.) of port on boat that needs to be paddled (oared) to one restaurant in town. New school loads crates of bottles onto trucks to deliver 3 crates to 3 restaurants in town (ouch - dropped crates and broken bottles, not to mention the Legal Eagles Heather & Eve hitting a pole with their truck). The next leg is to take a train to Lisbon and get to Gate F at the Estadio do Restelo Soccer Stadium. At the train station in Porto, all of the teams bunch-up and take the same train. There's a mad dash to the stadium via cabs. The Brothers get there first for the leg's Roadblock. A team member has to go into a goal and block a penalty kick from a teenage Portuguese soccer player. Upon blocking the shot, the team must walk one and a half miles to the Torre de Belem, the Pit Stop of the leg. Between the cab rides and the soccer stadium, the teams get really juggled around. The Legal Eagles, however, take a cab and get there first. The Brothers get there second, The Twins get there fourth. (Did you notice Phil didn't say "you are Team Number n" but instead said "you are the n'th team to arrive" to each team?) Somehow, Teri & Ian get there 6th. The last team to arrive on the mat is Aaron & Arianne... wait! It's fading to black! Oh, Oh... Heather & Eve are walking through a dorway and they look sick. They're followed by Aaron & Arianne. It's a sit-down meeting with Phil Keoghan. Phill tells Heather & Eve that they didn't follow the directions for the last clue (walk, not cab to the Torre de Belem) thus saving at least 7 minutes of time. They are penalized the 7 minutes, as well as the mandatory 30 minute penalty for not performing the task correctly. Normally, this wouldn't be a big deal... but all of the teams made it to Torre de Belem within 31 minutes of each other, so the 37 penalty minutes means that Heather & Eve are ELIMINATED!!! Next week: a bawling Flo on the cliffs of Portugal, gasoline in a diesel truck's tank, and no brakes!
