The teams stay in Africa, starting off with the grabbing of a chicken that has to stay with them for the rest of the leg. They proceed to a Detour that requires them either to dance their pants off or pan for gold, and we meet a new race feature called the U-Turn. The U-Turn -- long advocated by Eagle-Eyed Forum Posters undoubtedly now demanding a percentage -- is a Yield-like penalty that requires an affected team to go back at the end of a Detour and complete the other Detour option before continuing. Wisely, Shana and Jennifer -- who reach the Detour in seventh place -- use the U-Turn on Jason and Lorena, who are (as they were at the opening of the leg) in last place. Efforts are made to convince us that the remainder of the leg, in which a Roadblock requires someone to carry a heavy load of supplies on a bicycle through a Chaotic Marketplace™, will shuffle the teams enough that Jason and Lorena will recover. New drama breaks out when Jen apparently takes the position that Azaria and Hendekea, who have come in first twice (though she seems to believe it"s thrice) should step aside and let her and Nate win. Yes, it seems that she is serious. Hendekea"s like, "Yeah...no," and she and Azaria finish first again. In the end, Jason and Lorena are unable to come back from their last-place departure and their subsequent U-Turning, and are eliminated, just as they easily could have been last week. Oh, and: Ron survives another episode dragging that hernia, which is getting really uncomfortable to watch.
