Teams drive to Toulouse, France, known as the “Pink City,” where they must run, tackle, and kick their way through a roadblock while training with a champion pro rugby team

Oooh, maybe with a switch in drivers David and Aubrey will do better.  They probably should have considered that last leg.

[Pepper the Cat]

I would suck at the kicking of the ball

[Browncoat]

Does the ball have to bounce before you kick it?  I would suck at that, too.  I could manage a drop-kick if it doesn't have to bounce.

[Maggie Mae]

They are all saying Toulou.  What happened to the last 2 letters??

[Pepper the Cat]

Yay Molly!

[Lamb18]

Good thing Emily and Molly arrived at the stadium way ahead of the others.

[dizzyd]

Now that lumumba and Glenda have gone, I’m rooting for the Luis Derek bromance. Nah still rooting for molly and Emily. 

[Browncoat]

Wow.  Those two teams killed that rugby challenge.  It didn't look like Luis bounced his ball, but I guess he did.

[dizzyd]

I’d do the bricks even though I can speak a bit of French.

[Pepper the Cat]

Oh good Lord. Both detours sound horrendous

[EllenB]

Big time athlete looks like a kindergarten league player.

[Browncoat]

I'd do the bricks, too.

Damn, Marcus!  I expected an athlete to be better at the rugby challenge.

[Grizzly]

Derek, who can't roll his R's wants to recite 6 lines of French poetry?!

[Lamb18]

It looks like they're using the same clip of Marcus or his brother muffing the kick over and over again.

I would do bricks, too. Although I can speak French, memorizing by listening would take me a long time.

[Browncoat]

So much for their mad navigational skillz.

[dizzyd]

What happened to the brothers amazing navigation skills?

[Ladybugnine]

Dammit! They broke in to give us Hurricane Nicole updates!

[Pepper the Cat]

Bricks.

I would do bricks

[Browncoat]

Totally bricks. 

[Pepper the Cat]

I could not do the poem in English let alone a foreign language

[Lamb18]

I see, you can read the lines, too. That would make memorization easier.

I thought Luis and Michelle arrived at the pitstop at first.

[Browncoat]

Seems like the people missing the kicks are just rushing.  If they really slow down and take their time, they seem to get it right away.

Dammit, Jim, I'm a salsa dancer, not a bricklayer!

[dizzyd]

Well I’m impressed Derek and Claire finished the detour relatively quickly considering the yodeling. 

[Pepper the Cat]

Impressive

[MerBearHou]

Impressive French poem memory, Derek and Claire!!!  Wow!

[Browncoat]

That poetry judge is pretty lenient with pronunciation.

[Lamb18]

Claire did pretty well with her lines. Pronunciation wasn't great, but she got into the spirit of their meaning.

[Maggie Mae]

My 2 favorite teams: Derek and Claire and Molly and Emily

[Kleav]

Derek needs a Croakies strap.

Well, Aubrey and David, I guess switching drivers helped!  

I think at this point, I'm going to be sorry to see anyone go.  I don't dislike any of the remaining teams!

[Grizzly]

I'm bummed. I much preferred Quinton and Mattie to Aubrey and David. They did that poem in style. Just couldn't drive from one place to the next.
