* TheGenerationGap / PopCulturalOsmosisFailure: As the oldest racer in the Final 6, Angie did not know who Rihanna was when she and Danny travelled to her childhood home in Barbados, since her songs are more known with younger generations. Danny tried to explain who Rihanna was, but couldn't name a single song of hers.



* TheGenerationGap / PopCulturalOsmosisFailure : As millennials who are only 26, Anthony and Bailey had no idea who Elizabeth Taylor was when they were tasked to find her home for the Pit Stop. This is probably due to Taylor being more associated and popular with older generations since her career was at its height in the 40s, 50s, and 60s.

** Cesar grew up in Mexico and was able to speak fluent Spanish, meaning the first several legs, which take place in Spanish speaking countries, far easier for him and Ricky.

* DumbBlond: Have bleach blond hair and are shown to be not that bright, with them admitting would rather get physical tasks over mental ones. Making the stupid choice of switching detours four times is what gets them sent home.

** He also used to climb trees as a kid, which helped him and Amber collect cacao beans.



* BothSidesHaveAPoint: During leg 3, Angie and Danny briefly debate about helping the cousins find the way to the cooking detour, with Angie pointing out that the cousin could beat them in a footrace. Danny, however, counters by pointing out that working together is important as it helps build a bond with the other teams, making them reluctant to U-Turn or Yield them in the future.

Best Friends/Firefighters. Throughout the race, Sunny and Bizzy have struggled poorly with navigation and directions which led them to finishing in the bottom of the pack. Even when they arrived at a challenge in last place, they were able to perform a comeback and find a way to survive. However, their luck ran out in Uruguay when they struggled to find a plaza in one part of Montevideo to the point where they misread the name of the plaza and ended up at a port. Their long time weakness of failing to navigate well resulted in them becoming the 7th team to be eliminated.

Dating Girlfriends
Girlfriends. Yvonne and Melissa spent the majority of the race in the middle of the pack and started on near-equal footing with the other teams in the Dominican Republic at the 1st Roadblock. However, Melissa struggled early on the Waterfall Carvings Roadblock and didn't completely follow Cesar's answers when he helped her. The girls were roughly ten minutes behind the other teams and caught up to them at the cacao farm, but by the time they were in the midst of the Cacao Grinding Route Info, the other teams were able to finish well ahead of them. Yvonne and Melissa then lost a close foot race to the Pit Stop to Amber and Vinny thus becoming the 9th team to be eliminated.



* BabiesEverAfter: After their elimination was shown, The Amazing Race showed off an after credits montage revealing that Yvonne and Melissa got married after filming was done and had a daughter.

* FatalFlaw: Like many teams before them, NoSenseOfDirection. The duo are a strong team and can easily make up the time spent lost at roadblocks and detours, but all that time spent lost keeps them at the back of the pack constantly.

* TheCobblersChildrenHaveNoShoes: Despite both being in good shape, they frequently ignore physical Detours in favor of less physical ones like dancing for money over rock climbing or building a fish trap over hauling seaweed.

Son. Danny and Angie were able to climb to the top of the pack with a 2nd place finish in Leg 7 in Uruguay and started ahead of most teams in Leg 8 in Barbados. While driving to a beach for the Detour, Danny and Angie's production crew got separated from them at a roundabout. Upon arriving at the beach, a producer told Danny and Angie that they could not enter the beach until the crew caught up thus putting them at the bottom of the pack. This controversial delay is what led to them becoming the 8th team to be eliminated.
