Amazing Race: Terrence Is An Ass - There, I Said It
Episode 5 Commentary by Jessi K.

The seven remaining teams began their journey in New Zealand after a mandatory rest period. Everyone began the leg looking very well rested and I attested this to the fact that Phil’s father most likely tucked them all into bed. They seemed to all have that Keoghan glow about them.
Ken and Tina were the first team to receive their clue to fly 5,600 miles to Siem Reap, Cambodia, to look for their next clue at a gas station. A couple of hours behind them were Terence and Sarah. Just as Sarah complimented her “babe” on his tremendous driving skills, Terence was pulled over for going 117 kilometers in a 100 kilometer zone. Terence seemed to be kinder to the police officer than he is to Sarah. “Thank you officer, sorry!” he said as ticketing officer walked away. Then when Sarah stated that she ironically always thought that Terence was a slow driver he snapped back at her, “You’re such an ass. That’s the way you comfort someone who just got a speeding ticket?” She then reached forward to stroke his back and his ego while apologizing. If only the officers in New Zealand traveled with Maori warriors. Maybe then Terence would’ve been scared into silence.
The speeding ticket didn’t hinder Terence and Sarah from making it on the same flight as Ken and Tina, however. The travel agents at the Auckland airport helped to secure their tickets and Terence once again showed them more kindness than his own girlfriend: “You guys are awesome!” he said while running to catch their flight. And in his next breath he chastised Sarah, “You’re always outrunning me out the gate.” She again apologized and while I had previously hoped they wouldn’t make the same flight as Ken and Tina, I kept my fingers crossed they would just so New Zealand was rid of him. I didn’t want any such negativity further infiltrating the land of Keoghan.
Christy and Kelly, Dallas and Toni, Nick and Starr, and Andrew and Dan all made their way to the airport while Tina and Ken and Terence and Sarah made theirs to Singapore. At the airport, Christy and Kelly greeted Dallas and Toni sweetly at the travel agent. Their “hiiii!!!!” was sweet enough to send them into sugar shock. At the travel agent, Kelly eyed Dallas and leaned into Christy to whisper, “Doesn’t that hair remind you of Teen Wolf?” They then giggled themselves silly at the observation. I see no such harm in looking like Teen Wolf. Wasn’t Teen Wolf a total stud? Didn’t he impress others with his ability to bite into beer cans? Didn’t he lead his team to victory? Christy and Kelly are just jealous they can’t get that kind of volume into their own fine, limp hair without a lot of product and back combing.
Dan and Andrew did their best at the travel agency to smooth talk their way on to the flight with the rest of their teams but just as Dan began his happy dance, the travel agent informed him that it was “doubtful” they’d make it on. It was as if his moves stopped her from even trying to get them on the flight. “No, there’s no chance of getting on tonight’s flight,” she told them. I half wondered if she was even talking to anyone on the phone as she didn’t seem to really be trying. But her apathy didn’t stop Dan from trying at the airline’s check-in counter and they were allowed on the flight.
Aja and Ty started.....
