Han & Holden see the castle and are booking it while Carson & Jack think the right way to get up the castle is around the corner. Holden reiterates the back terrace while Carson & Jack are going into the fortress. Han hopes it's the right castle.

Carson & Jack arrive at the Pit Stop and are TEAM NUMBER FOUR.

Han & Holden come up short from behind and are exhausted. They are the last team to arrive and... IT'S A NON-ELIMINATION LEG. They are the first team in years to come up on one of these legs. Wow. Does that mean we have the Speed Bump back again next leg?

End credits and stay tuned for scenes from our next episode!

So the twist is that it is non-elim. But no handicap?

So that was our Naples leg of the season! Hope everyone loved the extra serving of pizza, mozzarella, and the abundance of produce. Please reply with your comments, critiques, and anything you have on your mind below and let's keep the conversations flowing like bottomless limoncello on an Italian villa veranda. Ciao ciao!

As someone who can trace part of my ancestry to Naples, I loved seeing the city. The fact that most of the leg was on foot led to such a frantic energy. They really did a good job highlighting the food culture, and it did not come as a surprise to see many racers struggle with the pizza peel (When will Carson join Tiffany and Rachel as competitors on Worst Cooks in America? Side note: How did they let Jack do 5 Roadblocks when they did the Fast Forward?). Han talking about her problems with perfectionism was such a good moment, and I'm glad that she & Holden are still in the race.

The only downside was that they did not visit Pompeii/Vesuvius. Phil didn't even mention that Vesuvius was behind him when describing the first location.

Phil uploaded a video on his Instagram account: the band and him eating the Pizza the teams delivered at the Pit Stop.

I am convinced that having a funicular automatically makes a city 58% more awesome.

I noticed that Team Vegas asked the shopkeepers for directions to their next destination. Strategic move (since they were on camera before, they wouldn't have to stop to sign a release) or just convenience (the shop was close to the departure point)?

It'll be interesting to see if Han & Holden can make the best of being the first beneficiary of a NEL in a long time.
