Last week's season debut of the Amazing Race All Stars ended in Quito, Ecuador, where the first team to be eliminated was John Vito and Jill. Ten teams remain in this oft-maniacal race to riches adventure. Who will be eliminated next? If the teams had their say, it would (of course) be Rob and Amber. They're back in this All Star edition after a second place finish in season seven of the Amazing Race. And from the looks of the first two episodes, they're the team to beat.

This week's episode of the Amazing Race All Stars began with Drew suffering from altitude sickness and getting treated with bottled oxygen. This is the same bumble-head who tripped and fell in last week's episode, scraping his knee and injuring his shoulder. It doesn't take rocket scientist intelligence to figure out that the constantly bickering team of Drew and Kevin will have a hard time staying in the race.

Rob and Amber (aka Romber) departed first from the pit stop at 7:42 a.m., followed by Danny and Oswald, Teri and Ian, Eric and Danielle, Joe and Bill, Dustin and Kandice, Uchenna and Joyce, Charla and Mirna, David and Mary and finally (surprise), Kevin and Drew.

The teams headed off to the airport to fly to their next destination, which was Santiago, Chile. Charla and Mirna's car got stuck in the mud, but the nice Team Kentucky (David and Mary) helped them out. Kevin and Drew's car also got stuck (hey, when you're on a downward spiral, what do you expect?) and Kevin had to pull them out.

At the airport, frontrunner teams Romber and Cha Cha Cha (Danny and Oswald) scored an early flight that would get them into Santiago forty minutes before the others. But as often happens when you're dealing with airlines, their flight was delayed. A frustrated Rob commented about how easy it is to go from first to last. Yeah, yeah, cue the violins. Seriously, what would the Amazing Race All Stars be without at least one team everyone loves to hate?

Did You Know?
During the first four seasons, teams could arrive at the pit stop at the same time and be "tied". This practice was ended after three teams tied for first place in a leg, each earning a prize.
