Amazing Race - A second chance

This was quite the busy episode. Just when you think it can't get anymore hectic, it does. The teams start out by taking a ferry to Italy where they find instructions to drive to Empoli. Once there, one person had to go up in an ultralight aircraft to find the next clue. Sounds easy right? Nate and Jen got lucky when they found a guy who gave them good directions. Everyone else took the long way and TK & Rachel actually drove the furthest going through Rome at the suggestion of some people they met in a restaurant. They had to turn around and go back to the restaurant when they noticed they didn't have their clue. The normally laid back TK was starting to lose it a bit. All of the teams drove all night to get to the airfield so tempers where getting short. Kynt & Vyxsin started arguing when they kept getting lost. It's so strange to see so much pink yelling at each other! TK had such a hard time with the ultralight challenge. Come on TK, how can you not spot the word "Vinci" in 10 foot letters? Meanwhile, Nick and gramps decide to try the fast forward and find out they have to get FF tattooed on themselves. I didn't think gramps was going to do it. He kept saying about how it was permanent (most tattoos are!) and how he is too old for a tattoo. You would have thought he was getting the Mona Lisa tattooed on his chest or something! He was a trooper and went though with it. Kynt & Vyxsin pulled themselves together and finished the flag routine only to find out they came in last. I was SO bummed! Then Phil said those words every racer wants to hear, this is a non elimination round. Yeah! I have grown to like the goths, they are very entertaining so I'm really happy they got a second chance.
