Aussie:
Pitstop??  :ascared

Coutzy:
And Back. Sam calls it the most challenging challenge yet.

Dave is struggling because he thinks completely different to Kelly

Nathan doesn't think Tyler knows what "strategic" means

Matt and Tom's taxi driver plays Matcod a lot, he claims to be very very good at it. The Cowboys are struggling a bit with the game.

Dave and Kelly have matched with Jeff and Luke on the most strategic team.

Jeff and Luke have finally matched on the most strategic team and they're away. They share a few sentences on stretegic.

Matt is baking in the sun, but they've hit a rhythym and they are finished.

Teams must now drive themselves 200 kilometers to the Pit Stop: Masada. Built by King Herod and overlooking the Dead Sea, it is one of the most significant sites in Israel.

Matt: "I need you to be ace on that stuff today Tom. Please, mate."

Coutzy:
Tyler has matched number 4, while Dave is struggling with number 1 and Renae is having trouble with number 2.

J/L and N/T are at Detour.

Nathan and Tyler "live in Bondi and used to see these Europeans in speedos playing this bat and ball game and we used to laugh at em. Now its us, luckily we weren't wearing speedos."

Jeff and Luke get to 12, then lose it. Jeff throws his bat.

Ad break.

Coutzy:
And we're back.

Jeff and Luke are still struggling, even though Jeff has played lots of Tennis.

Luke: "You spat your dummy all over the beach."

Nathan and Tyler are having a lot of trouble

Dave finally has all five after putting themselves as the team they most envy.

Sam and Renae slaps down every team for question 2 and finally gets it. Sam is distraught that she screwed up and is mostly happy that they still have a chance. They pass D/K in a taxi and couldn't be happier about it.

Jeff and Luke have been slamming it back and forth  and finally realise doing soft lobs will be easier. They then proceed to get about 20.

Nathan makes a run and dive at the ball to rack up 13. They get stuck in the parking lot and can't pay, two girls pay for them to get out and hand them their phone number

All the girls are having difficulty with the bat and ball task, Sam and Renae are looking for the keys and instead found a coin. Also "about 50 bottle tops"

Dave and Kelly are having loads of trouble with the bat and balls,

Sam and Renae "started going a little bit Cookoo in the sand, while Kelly is taking a break to put sunscreen on while Dave lectures her. Dave is tired and sore and has had a gutful, while the girls hope they take a penalty.

Ad break.

Coutzy:
And we're back. Dave and Kelly are having a lot of trouble but "There's no way in hell we're gonna dig for keys in the sand."

Matt and Tom give a shoutout to The Castle and give us a "How's the serenity?"

Luke hopes Matt and Tom got lost and they're maybe in first.

Jeff is worried that they may have taken a wrong turn and are in Iraq, so what would you do? That's right, Ask a guy carrying an M-16 He tells them that they've gone too far though.

Matt and Tom reach Mosada and are checked in as team number 1.

As the winners of this leg they receive a $5000 personal computer package from Bing Lee.

Jeff and Luke check in at number two, to rousing cheers from a crowd.

At the beach, Sam and Renae have found another key and its the right one, so they're off.

Dave misses a shot and chucks his bat.

Renae wants them to be the last girls standing.

D/K have finished their task and feel they can catch S/R because they have a good map.

N/T have taken a wrong turn and are on the wrong side of Mosada.

And I swear I just head Sam say "We're on the other side of it, now we're in Iran."

Sam and Renae have driven to the wrong side of Mosada and have now said "We have to go all the way back to Iran."

Ad break-

Question: Am I mis-hearing Iran? Is there some place in Israel that sounds like it?
