NANCY, BOY: And just when you thought the Race was back to its normal greatness, we travel to Sri Lanka, the now-besieged island nation in which no mistake is too great to be overcome by a second re-bunch with thirty-eight minutes already gone in the episode -- no mistake, that is, except the last one.

Other than a great Roadblock task, this leg stank. (Okay, the little Esther Williams number at the end was cute, but it's countered by that vicious Bolo = Monkey edit.) Yes, it was nice to see FloZac again, albeit with the genders reversed, but when starting first doesn't matter, and neither does finish the detours first, or making a train within 1h30m of other teams, or a pointless detour to a temple, then what does?

Five teams, three hours, two episodes to go.
