A very excited pair of Hippies set off to find a salmon hooker. Geez, I've heard of fish wives but fish hookers? I had no idea the Alaskans were so into their marine life. Ron and Chris were close behind, and both teams furiously searched for the whorish fish.

Fishy fetishes

The Hippies were the first to find the salmon hooker, which turned out to be a statue of a fish wearing too much make-up. Thank god. I was imagining a woman in a fish suit walking the streets getting picked up by Furries. Do you still call them Furries if they're into fish? Wouldn't they rather be Scalys?

Enough pondering the intricacies of fishy fetishes. The finish line beckons. TK and Rachel set off for the finish line with a small lead. Ron and Chris were close behind, although maybe not as close as the editors made them out to be. They were unable to pass the Hippies, and TK and Rachel were the first ones to cross the finish line.

The Hippies were thrilled. Think how much weed a million can get you. TK was proud of how Rachel, despite being petite, had persevered throughout. I had no idea being a skinny, twiggy girl was that difficult to overcome. Another stereotype broken, I guess. Rachel declared that TK was her bong rock.

Like a Disney movie

Ron and Chris put on a brave face when they came in second, and focused on the positive effect the race had had on their relationship. Ron declared he was a new man, a better man. Old men can change their (liver) spots after all.

Nick and Don's final words were all about how awesome it was that Don had done so well despite being almost seventy. It helps when you have experience in pretty much every job known to man.

A happy ending for all: a couple more in love than ever, a father and daughter's relationship renewed, and an old man who exceeded everyone's expectations. It felt like something out of a Disney movie. I almost expected everyone to burst into song and dance with a herd of animated moose.

And so ends the twelfth season of The Amazing Race. From me, until the next time, it's peace out, man.
