The Amazing Race 10 – Episode 10 Recap

The Amazing Race – Season 10 – Episode 10

I’m rooting for the Queens (or “Barbies” as other racers are calling them) or the Models. Well, officially I’m just rooting *against* the Moms. The biggest thing this week? The end of the six-pack (minus two) alliance.

This week’s rundown:

THIS WEEK – 1st – Won a “dream trip” for two to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
LAST WEEK – 1st
Ex-Addict Models (Tyler & James) – I predict the playful banter between the Models and the Queens will turn serious and the couples will make it to the final leg of the race, stop in the middle of a sprint against one another to the mat and million dollar prize, drop down on bended knees, and propose marriage. Then they’ll pair off boy-girl, boy-girl and step on the mat together in a two-way never before heard of tie to win The Amazing Race.

THIS WEEK – 2nd
LAST WEEK – 2nd
Beauty Queens (Dustin & Kandice) – Umm… alternate scenario. The Queens play the Models like cheap fiddles, leave them naked and penniless in an airport bathroom, frame the Moms, and go on to win the race while Rob & Kimberly are still listed as “missing” after the Moms tricked them onto a plane going to the middle east.

THIS WEEK – 3rd
LAST WEEK – 4th
Rob & Kimberly – I don’t care for Rob & Kimberly to win the race, but if it came down to them against the Moms, I’d choose Rob & Kimberly. If nothing else, Rob has become very determined to win. A little psycho, but definately determined. For example, last episode biking like a maniac down a dark mine shift and then hoofing it back up the shaft – uphill – with a block of limestone and catching up to the other teams. Determination. This week he actually complemented Kimberly too. Well… he said she was like a super alien being from outer space or something like that – but it was said in a very loving manner!

THIS WEEK – 4th
LAST WEEK – 3rd
Moms (Lyn & Karlyn) – I respect these two for having enough sense to break the alliance and run the race like true competitors. Umm… that’s the only nice thing I have to say. They rode on everybody else’s backs to get this far. They followed the Chos through most of this episode and whined and complained the entire time. When they drove forward on their own, they didn’t say anything – they just left. I’ve stated that I think alliances to this level in The Amazing Race are stupid – however, they made the social contract and it was really crappy the way they broke it. And *THEN* they had the audacity to be mad at the Chos for following *them* and even went so far as to say, “The Cho brothers need to learn how to run their own race.” I’d just love to see the look on the Chos faces when they watch this episode.

Who got kicked off?

THIS WEEK – 5th – ELIMINATED!
LAST WEEK – 5th
Erwin & Godwin – These guys must have really good jobs because they sure didn’t care about winning a million dollars. But in the end, the Christmas cards from the Coalminers and the Moms will be enough as they snuggle down into their lollipop beds in their Care Bear pajamas to dream about flowers and flying horses and a world where nobody ever loses…
