Katie and Rachel emerge from the crowd behind Phil and the greeter and jump onto the mat as team number two. I'm telling you, look out for those two.
Connor is up in the roof trying to adjust the antenna, but after cycling through some different stages of static, with and without color, they just give up. "Sorry we couldn't install your TV," Jonathan tells the owner. On their way out, he says hi to a kid and asks for a high five. And then for a low one. The kid leaves him hanging both times. He was hoping for some TV, I think.Michael and Kevin arrive as team number three, so not bad at all. And with Kevin still wearing his safety glasses, even.
Jill, Thomas, and their two local helpers get the coffin-cam up the stairs to the showroom, Jill reminding them, "One step at a time. It's hard when you're in a hurry." They get their clue in fifth place. I think it's safe to say that the Express Pass will not be used during this leg.
Chad and Stephanie loudly excuse themselves through the crowd around the mat and arrive in fourth place. They're pretty happy about it, and I agree that it's a pretty big jump up from eighth. And this was a much harder place to find Phil in than last week's Pit Stop.
Team @ asks their driver about Peace Motor, but he's never heard of it, apparently. Probably because it's so peaceful. Gary and Mallory's driver admits that he thinks they should go back. Both cabbies stop for directions, which is when Andie and Jenna come up behind them and see them. What are the chances of three teams getting lost on the exact same road? Of course, I don't know how many roads Accra has, so maybe those chances are one in one. Andie and Jenna also have their driver stop for directions, which they don't even fully have before they see that Gary and Mallory's river is turning around. Nat and Kat will be following them, as will Andie and Jenna.
After the ads, Jenna asks their driver if he knows where they're going now. He assures them the does. "Okay. Sweet," Jenna says, as sweetly as she can manage.
Jonathan and Connor are running down the street behind a different kid. "And a chilled shall lead us!" Jonathan dorks. They make it to Emmanuel's Woodshop and choose a fish-shaped coffin, which they sort if crash into a lion-shaped coffin on their way out. Fortunately the guys in the yard laugh rather than get offended at this shoddy treatment of their work. Connor remarks on how a human being would fit inside such an oddly-shaped casket and adds, "I guess if you really like fish you're sleeping with the fishes." What, he was going to not say it?
