Advantage: Bertram Van Munster.
Well played, sir, having your racers dash in their underwear through the Siberian streets.
But its not about the flesh with Van Munster.

I dont think theres a TV executive alive who preaches, You know what sells?
The second Siberian leg began with Jodi and Christie leaving first at 12:36 p.m.
But departure time was moot as they were headed to the Siberian Railroad for a 400-mile trek.
As someone who is six foot seven inches tall, I cant blame her for complaining.
I dont think the Siberians will be rushing to put that slogan on their license plates.
There was an interesting moment when Mike was talking to Margie and Luke in their cabin in the morning.
Thanks Luke, real compassionate, said Mike.
Boo hoo for you.
Or, maybe Lukewasjust being a dick.
It takes a deafer person than I to figure that out.
NEXT: Beware the sinister deaf kid!
About time we got some new archetypes on this show beyond bickering hot couple and bitchy hot women.
Might I suggest a few?
How about, gregarious homeless gay couple?
Come on, lets shake this show up!
Jaime and Cara ended up with a cabbie who was smoking.
I love how he has time to smoke a cigarette while were in a race, snorted Jaime.
They all arrived at the Detour, which Phil described as two unavoidable aspects of Siberian life.
Okay, I get how snow is unavoidable, but transporting brides?
Hey Victor, while there is no I in team, there is also no Youre a jerk.
Seriously, stop looking for it.
I dont care what you say, there is nothing you might do to make me sell hot dogs!
and then the picture flips around and there he is behind a cart saying, Getcher hot dogs here!
I cop to that hypocrisy.
NEXT: Striptease, Siberian style!
Jaime and Cara were ignored by a team of guys in red jumpsuits (They dont understand English!
whined Jaime: how dare they not learn her language while shes trying to win a race?)
and Margie just sat in an abandoned truck, waiting for a starting pistol to go off.
The only people who found it quickly were Mark and Michael.
It became clear that the locals were giving them fake directions, so they backed away.
Mel charmed his bride during the ride by saying, Youre so beautiful.
Mike chimed in, Wouldnt you rather have her than a snowplow?
She thinks were trying to kill her, said Christie.
Its like having Bill OReilly as your chauffeur.
Then came the Roadblock, in which one teammate had to run 1.4 miles in their underwear.
The clue just said, Who has stamina and absolutely no shame?
and didnt yet reveal what the task would entail.
After Cara read it, Jaime just gritted her teeth, winced, and shook her head no.
What was she more averse to, the stamina, or the lack of shame?
Luke finished first, earning him and his mom a trip to St. Lucia.
They were quickly followed by Tammy and Victor, then Jaime and Cara.
Meanwhile, the two lagging teams were just getting started.
First came Jen, who was really starting to come into her own.
And Im not just saying that because she doesnt wear underwear.
At the end, she asked the camera crew, I look hot in my underwear, cant lie.
Do I not look hot in my underwear?
Christie and Jodi, however, looked in no mood to be merry.
What did you think of Siberia, part 2?
Did the surprise foot race make you reconsider the importance of always wearing clean underwear?
And do you think Luke will start a trend of sinister deaf guys?
And should I reconsider my harsh treatment of Siberia?
Should we all take a group vacation there?
Seriously, read it now!
