Object Detection API installation fails on a Raspberry Pi 4

I'm trying to install the Object Detection API using a Raspberry Pi 4 with all the latest updates (Raspbian Linux raspberrypi-4a 5.4.83-v7l+ #1379 SMP Mon Dec 14 13:11:54 GMT 2020 armv7l GNU/Linux).

Following the guide exactly as written. Starts out ok and then downloads maybe 35 versions of "scipy" and multiple versions of other packages. Ran it all day and it never completed.

root@raspberrypi-4a:/home/pi# rm -fr models
