Phil Has Just the Right Words at an Emotional Elimination on 'Amazing Race' (VIDEO)

In this third leg, the remaining nine teams on 'The Amazing Race' (Sun., 8PM ET on CBS) stayed in Indonesia and faced some true 'TAR' challenges. They had to perform physical labor, decipher clues and even count and remember Buddha statues. This means they didn't arrive at the finish in virtually the same order they left it.!!SPOILER ALERT!!
After catapulting to first place thanks to a keen eye last week, though, Andy & Tommy continued a solid and impressive run. They partnered with Laurence & Zac on the finale task, and the two pairs came in first and second for the second week in a row.
After that, though, it was virtual chaos as some teams really struggled to figure the task out, and eventually virtually all of them started working together to try and figure it out. And after coming in third last week, Kaylani & Lisa found themselves abruptly eliminated.
Kaylani, who was racing to help her give her four-year old daughter a better life got emotional on the mat, thinking she failed her. Phil came through, though, with just the right words.
"She's not gonna think that you failed her," he told her. "She's gonna be proud of you that you went out and you gave this a good shot. You guys never gave up."
