Ron Zeitz and Bill Cruz Flight family and buddies and domestic partners Ron Zeitz and Bill Cruz started Leg 2 in the Amazing Race 19 in last place and continued to be there, eventually becoming the second team axed inside the show's first double elimination. Their fate was sealed after they were one of the eight teams who missed the additional clue within the orphanage, nevertheless the misfortune started with out them, but two bad cab drivers. Uncover everything you didn't see round the episode and whatever they consider the extra clue hidden in plain sight.Amazing Race's Ethan and Jenna: We prefer SurvivorYou were in last the whole leg. Why perhaps you have log on this kind of bad start?Bill: We make no excuses whatsoever, but - you hear this constantly round the Race - since they can't show precisely what happens, you don't see what cab works, what cab didn't. However, if we turned up in Jakarta, i had been first within the train. The second we showed up in Yogyakarta, it absolutely was downhill with taxis. All of our taxis, which have been the running rides of the leg - nice drivers - could never succeed. ... We never developed a mistake before orphanage. We just had the worst luck - again, it is not grounds, but merely an undeniable fact from the products happened. With spelunking like a task that should be carried out a purchase of arrival, there's hardly any opportunity to create up time. We just stood a hard time recouping. You changed cabs once, but tend to not change again?Bill: No. One was in the heart of the evening inside an area we understood nothing about. The cab was lost. He was nice all, but he stopped but got on his cell phone for help. That put us behind. Then departing to access the caves, our cab driver am afraid of all the activities he wouldn't pull to depart, and then we ended up since the sixth cab inside the line which i was inside the second group. The whole time, he attempted to feed people, nevertheless it was morning hurry and there's no way of getting around. I had been stuck because eleventh place that point.Steve: Really the only time our cab really began it in was once we left the spelunking and headed into the city center to accomplish the dancing ... after which it he travelled towards the orphanage. He only decided to be about it in those days, however, we'd plenty of ground to cover. The showgirls were maybe two minutes before us [departing the Roadblock]. We understood i had been directly behind everything.It made an appearance just like you were by her within the Detour, or had you been just inside a different street corner? Ron: There has been three different corners we are in a position to dance at. Jeremy and Sandy, and Marcus and Amani were just finishing once we were approaching. ... I am unsure once the bikes were simpler, but we're able to fly through dancing. It needed, like, a quarter-hour ... We understood i had been still in last, but we felt like we are in a position to still constitute some time. Bill: The fact they were there - Marcus and Amani were inside the first group to go away spelunking - i had been very happy to uncover their location knowing we left last. The ride within the caves to a different task was over an hour or so approximately, which is how our cab driver composed time.Amazing Race's Phil Keoghan: We've most likely probably the most competitive cast yetWhat can you consider the extra clue twist?Bill: At the beginning of the race, they mentioned, what's awesome in regards to the Amazing Race is always that they're always adding new twists, but that's what helps it be so exciting and why we now have loved everything these years. As a longtime fan, you're always searching for your clue box. After they gave us that emblem, that was just what the clue box was, which is the thing that was so awesome relevant for this season. Nothing was everything you expect to ensure that it's. To tag onto using the sign - never throughout my craziest dreams would I have thought to look at a sign in the frame. It absolutely was an unexpected to us once we recognized we missed it, but as racers, we i i never thought to look for this. We truly required to tell ourselves after - and i'm sure audiences did - "You've to look into the whole surroundings because anything might be a clue." That was possibly the finest the moment. It was not merely a clue or possibly an idea box that could provide you with directions. It might be anything, including that which you just thought was part of the desk. We didn't even notice it.And that means you never even viewed?Ron: In my opinion i had been feeling excited that individuals had completed the task pretty quickly. We would never know where we was and also you walk in, your adrenaline's moving, the truth is these youthful women and you also start speaking together and you are feeling good in what you've been in a position to perform. I'd say, as eight teams missed it, it absolutely was fairly simple to overlook.Costs: In those days, because we understood i had been eleventh, i had been so about consuming the moment. Once we walked in and saw all people women as well as the teachers, plus they are clapping and yelling, I'm speaking about, truly, that moment was that which you are there for. ... I had been getting an enjoyable experience creating on their behalf and seeing their excitement. We should invariably be thinking game, but i was not thinking game only at that second because we understood just what the task was. And then we missed the clue, but I am likely to be honest, in those days, I wasn't thinking about searching across the room for clues. Had you seen it, you'd have observed ninth and safe. Does it the charitable organization area of the task ensure it is better to swallow that you just didn't?John: Absolutely. Once we came back, we understood i had been done. After we were running for the Pit Stop the first time, we'd other teams running back. I had been believing that the shin bone was ongoing. Clearly, no an individual's likely to show you they were switched back.Bill: Once we came back, i had been like, "We're back!" In those days, it absolutely was completely in regards to the orphanage. We understood our Amazing Race would finish, and then we needed time for you to give them it and desire them due to the fact now it absolutely was nearly, "Let's give them all this money. We're not able to change our future." We're able to not change anything as well as when we are in a position to, it was not what that moment involved. Now we're supplying all of them with $300 U.S., it is therefore a great gift.What measures behind Ethan and Jenna had you been?Expenses: Some distance whatsoever. They were checking in once we arrived at the Pit Stop. We required to wait to register.John: In my opinion there's probably 10 mins between everyone checking in who required to return. We passed each other coming back and forth. It absolutely was also very warm and moist. In my opinion part of the adrenaline inside me was saying, maybe somebody am tired they have to walk which we'd amazingly pass somebody.Bill: I had been fighting too and in those days, it could take an Olympic sprint to overtake somebody even a quarter-hour before you.Drop Preview: Get scoop on all your favorite returning showsWhat are you currently presently to date?John: We're back at American [Airline carriers]. We're making people happy in mid-air. I furthermore do home financial financial loans, therefore i keep doing that. ... We're waiting for Crest Whitestrips to call us because Bill am impressed with how white-colored our teeth were! Everyone knows Crest will most likely be calling us every single day now! [Laughs] But merely taking pleasure around and fostering within our family. The primary reason we ongoing the Race was because there has been plenty of health issues with this particular family and so they were kind of were inside a nice place once we ongoing the Race. Now we're benefiting from major problems with cancer battles, to make sure that's really our priority just like a family. Bill: We're also reaping helpful benefits from excellent messages and texts out of your pals and family and [co-workers], it is therefore great to think that support too.
