Amazing Race 10 - Episode 4

Departing the Pit Stop in first place at 10:55pm, brothers Erwin & Godwin ripped open their clue to discover they needed to travel 20 miles by taxi to the Ly Thai To Garden in Hanoi. Once there, they would need to listen for their next clue.A slow taxi caused the Cho brothers to fall behind a majority of the Teams who congregated at the garden straining to listen for their clue. Beauty queens Dustin & Kandice thought the crickets were talking to them, but like the other Teams, they soon heard a voice emanating from a loudspeaker, "Attention racers! Taxi across the Red River to Ben Xe Gia Lam. Then, take a bus to Ben Xe Bai Chay. Then, find the Hydrofoil Harbor." Having become accustomed to showing written locations to taxi drivers, the Teams needed to take a different tact this time around. Single moms Lyn & Karlyn simply relayed their phonetic spelling of the clue to their driver, while models Tyler & James and friends Peter & Sarah chose a smarter option of walking their driver to the loudspeaker to listen to the clue. Dating couple Rob & Kimberly ran into problems when their driver, who didn't have directions of his own, lost the taxi he was supposed to follow and ended up back at the garden. Losing his cool, Rob took the driver over to listen to the clue and assumed they would now make it to Ben Xe Gia Lam without incident. Instead, the driver again went in a circle returning them to the garden. Getting out of the taxi, Rob paid the driver who complained about the fare, to which a fuming Rob replied, "No dude, you didn't do anything!" Pulling another driver aside to listen to the clue, the dating couple hopped into another taxi, sighing, "Finally, a competent cab driver." In the end, Rob's panicking and stressing amounted to little as all of the Teams had to wait until 5:00am for the bus station to open.
