You know it was lost-lost when no camera dude caught it lying on a seat or sidewalk.
What a cruel way to go though -- in first, legitimately proud of themselves for playing well -- and then to get canned this way.
Now I'm wondering what happened -- did they eventually find the passport? Did they have to hang out in Phnom Penh for a couple days until it was replaced?

Yep. Though I was hoping it had fallen under the seat in the cab or something where a cameraman might not be able to see.
My guess is CBS dropped them at the embassy with a PA to get a temp passport issued and then whisked them off to the sequestration hotel.
Yeah, I was really bummed that it wasn't just in the cab!
Man, that really sucked.
(Just watched on Hulu - wasn't home to make up for the 40 minute football delay!)
TAR: So terrible!
I was so hopeful that it would be in the cab because they were lucky enough to be in the same cab all day. But I really do feel bad for them because they did have a great run.
But, yo, hold on to your passports, people.

I'm sure that "travel documents" includes any and all visas as well as passports.

TAR:
Some interesting information surfaced in two post-Amazing Race 15 interviews with the tragically eliminated Zev and Justin: they only had 26 minutes to find their lost passports; Phil told them they won motorcycles for coming in first, motorcycles Sam and Dan will presumably receive; and the two went to therapy pre-season to learn how to be more effective.
