*The teams encounter new challenges and opportunities in Italy,
*One Team faces a major setback when they lose their clue and their way in Italy. *.. and one team faces a setback when they lose both their clue and their way.

*The teams participate in a flag-twirling challenge, where one team falls apart and faces a "nightmarish" experience.
*One Team receives shocking news at the Pit Stop that they liken to a “three-headed serpent that at any moment can spring forward.”
*For the average traveler, a visit to Italy would likely be a magical experience, but for one particular team "nightmarish" might be a better description, when things suddenly stop going their way in the race.

*Kynt argues with Vyxsin, ordering her to "stop this car!"
*One of the race's strongest teams succumbs to the stress of sprinting around the globe
**The teams travel to Italy and stress takes a toll on one duo;
*Fatigue and stress cause one of the Race's strongest teams to breakdown when racing through Italy,
* while one usually cohesive Team melts down.

 

gingerman28:
That's a good start.  It looks like the ROADBLOCK must come first.  Spot the clue from the air, (Vinci) tell the air marshal what you saw and he gives you the clue to proceed to Vinci, et.  DETOUR takes place in Vinci (1) flag waving and (2) no idea.

then back to Florence and the pit stop.

Meanwhile, grandpa and nick take the FF and go off and get tatooed (I want to see that) and beat everyone to the pit stop.  A great leap forward: last to first.

And it looks like the goths hit the wall and are philiminated! (Sorry, Michael)

TARAsia Fan:
I love that video, puddin. You truly rock!  :cmas51 :cmas51 :cmas51 :cmas9 :cmas9 :cmas9 :jumpy: :jumpy: :jumpy: :cmas16 :cmas16 :cmas16 :cmas16
