On the top of the world, teams arrive at the pit stop.  Kelly and Christy confronted Nick and Starr. Starr asked Aja and Ty to use the U-Turn, sending Kelly and Christy back to complete a second road block task.

Ken and Tina avoid all the drama by keeping ahead of the pack. They’re the first to leave the pit stop on they’re way to Auckland, New Zealand . They will then go to Gulf Harbor to find a clue hidden in sailor knots. Dallas and Toni were next to leave, hopefully Dallas won’t be the navigator since he doesn’t even now where New Zealand is located.

Kelly and Christy were the last to leave. Last place should be a position they’re used to by now. The teams race to the airport only to find the first flight will be in the morning. Dan and Andrew have bonded with Marissa and Brooke - it doesn’t hurt that they’re cute. Aja and Ty are feeling the strain of a face to face relationship. They probably need more miles between them. Ty should wear a Tshirt “I’m with Castro.” since Aja is a bit of dictator.

All of the teams were on the same flight. It was a foot race to the cars and the marina. Aja and Ty had a flat tire on the way. The teams just flew by them. Even a dictator can’t control car problems. But they can flag down help, which is exactly what Aja did to get them on the road again.

Ken and Tina reached the clue first, but Dan and Andrew untangled the knot first. They found a Fast Forward, allowing them to skip all remaining tasks. Both Dan and Andrew and Ken and Tina decided to give it a shot, but only one team can do it. They have to go to the tallest building in the city, Sky City and climb the service stairs (on the outside of the building) to retrieve a friend - my money is on the gnome.

Ken and Tina made it to Sky City first so Dan and Andrew went to the road block.

The road block requires one team member to match a tattoo on the face of a local warrior. Terrence and Sarah arrived first and Terrence tried to find the marked man. It only took a couple of close calls and then they were on to the City Life Hotel for their next clue. In the mean time, Tina freaked out climbing the needle which was swaying in the wind. She reached the top and yep, the gnome was waiting. They were on their way to the pit stop.

Toni had no trouble with the road block. At the City Life Hotel, team members have to use binoculars to locate a gnome and then retrieve it. Next they have to drive to Kiwi 360. Teams are faced with a detour, either of Matter of Time, squashing kiwi with their feet until the have 12 quarts of juice or Matter of Skill, assembling sail go carts and completing three laps.

Terence and Sarah, Toni and Dallas stomped Kiwi and found the task took a toll on their feet. Dallas and Toni gave up before completing the task. As they were leaving, Andrew and Dan arrived with Nick and Starr close behind. Starr and Nick gave up too, after giving directions to Christy and Kelly. They thought they were screwing them, but Christy and Kelly got thru the juice in no time at all. Oh, did I mention each player has to drink a big ole glass of kiwi juice? Cheers.

Starr crashed on the go cart . She hurt her arm, but finished the laps, tears rolling down her face. Marisa and Brooke were the last team to arrive and were eliminated.
