Bulgaria, Germany, Italy, and the current France leg.

They took a train from Frankfurt. Of course. Typical TAR.

Josiah is quickly misproving Alyssa's point with Holden arguing with Han about not being able to taste the cheeses differently anymore. Alyssa is not entertaining this while Brett & Mark arrive. Brett is thrilled to have caught up thanks to the nature of the cheese task itself.

Alyssa & Josiah try the cheeses and are not getting it right. Josiah wants another go before using the Express Pass. Han & Holden are going for their attempt and only answered up to the middle before getting it wrong. Everyone is struggling. Meanwhile, H&H eventually get it right!

ROUTE INFO: Strasbourg Cathedral! Teams must climb to the top of the cathedral to the panoramic outlook to pick up the next clue.

Everyone else is cheesing for the task while Alyssa & Josiah are now nervous. Carson & Jack and Jon & Ana eventually get it right and leave the cheese task in 2nd and 3rd. "I'm calm, this is just illogical." - Alyssa.

Brett & Mark say they have the cheeses right while Josiah is claiming they can get the cheeses right on the next try.

Han & Holden are running into the cathedral and now must climb 330 steps up a spiral staircase. Carson & Jack following right behind them.

DETOUR: Out to Dry or For the Birds
In Out to Dry, teams must clean a tub full of dirty garments in the canal. In For the Birds, teams must create a structure of a nest for storks.

H&H and DnD choose the laundry task.

Jon & Ana are climbing with Jon complaining that Ana is annoying and is going to get them eliminated. He is spent and Ana is now in charge of picking the Detour. She chooses the laundry.

Han stops someone on the street to ask for directions to the laundry with Carson & Jack realizing how far the task is from their current location. Holden is arguing with Han now and Jon & Ana get away from them with their own tension. :funny:

Jon is holding a dark cloud over Ana for messing up the cheese tasting as the reason they aren't in first.

Brett & Mark are listing the cheeses flawlessly while Josiah is still arguing with Alyssa that the Express Pass can be saved for the next task.

Commercials.

We return to the ghosts of John & Jessica's past as Alyssa is relinquishing the Express Pass right before Brett & Mark finishes the cheese identification.

Carson & Jack are driving into the countryside with Carson feeling he has control issues. Alyssa & Josiah are climbing the spiral while Brett & Mark arrive at its doorsteps.

Alyssa & Josiah are doing the stork nest while Vegas is exhausted. They are doing the nest as well.

Han & Holden are driving toward Paris and find out they need to drive south. They pull over and ask someone in a Fiat. They are even more confused. Meanwhile, DnD arrive at the laundry!

Is this Carson and Jack self-drive redemption?

Carson & Jack pays attention to the method the grannies are doing. They are relatively enjoying this task. Brett & Mark are navigating and trying to play their comeback card with correct directions. Jon & Ana, in the meantime, are lost. Ana just saw a sign and is missing crucial entrances. She asks for Jon to help direct as she can't do both. Alyssa & Josiah are battling their internal struggles and are also lost as they miss an exit.

Brett & Mark arrive out of nowhere at the stork nest assembly! Mark has cheese in his pocket. :lol:

The setup is relatively not complicated and Vegas gets started with the branches. Their strategy is to make it pretty. They still can't believe no one else is at the task. "We're not going to count our chickens before they hatch, but we're going to let them hatch in this nest." - Mark.

Carson & Jack are scrubbing to their delight with the gossip surrounding them. Carson has the silly energy to get the stains off from this source of motivation. Alyssa & Josiah arrive at the stork nest with Brett & Mark in the background.

"We have to go faster. I know, I know." - Brett & Mark. Josiah reveals he used to work in landscaping with his grandfather. The nurses are taking this as a sign they are ready for a stork in their life. Brett & Mark are making art while Alyssa & Josiah are wrapping like they are in the ER. Courtney & Jasmin would be proud.

Carson & Jack call for a check as Han & Holden pull up to the laundry. Jon wants to take over as Ana is wondering for directions. They are having a shutdown with their dynamics.

Updater note: Surprised the Speed Bump is nowhere to be found for Han & Holden's non-elimination. It finally went away. :waves:

We come back to Jon & Ana having a bit of stress and frustration culminating into a standoff. Carson & Jack end up passing the laundry with their next clue!

ROUTE INFO: Drive to Vineyard Table D'Orientation and climb to the peak of the hill to the Pit Stop. Last team to check in WILL be eliminated.

Brett & Mark call for a check of their nest and it's unapproved.

Alyssa & Josiah also go for their check. "Hoping for a one-check wonder."- Josiah. It's immediately rejected without much of a glance from the demonstrator. Brett & Mark are declined again. Both are studying the guy wondering what they were doing wrong. Brett finds the wood board underneath and Alyssa & Josiah do too. Unfortunately, Aly & Josiah have something else wrong.

Vegas and the nurses are making quick work of their nests with Brett & Mark also getting closer, but still not approved.

Jon & Ana arrive at the laundry with Jon nagging in the background. Ana reveals she moved to Mexico when she was little and has a similar method growing up with this scrubbing exercise. Han & Holden making progress steadily.

Carson & Jack park their car and run up to Phil at the vineyard. They are TEAM NUMBER ONE and win OneKey Cash from Expedia to Helsinki, Finland.

Jack feels confident now and Carson says this was the fire they needed to continue. They bag on Alyssa & Josiah's Express Pass for no reason.

Brett & Mark and Alyssa & Josiah are getting checks again with the nurses finally getting it right. They quickly read their clue and set off in 2nd. Brett & Mark are still confused while Alyssa is asking a local gardener for directions. Mark is realizing the knots are pulled to the bottom of the nest.

Josiah thanks the man in the garden with his kid for the directions Alyssa is scribbling down. Brett & Mark finally get the clue and quickly run out of there. "We're racing them." - Mark.  :funny: (If you don't just follow them...)

Okay, they have the though to just follow them now. Phew. Alyssa & Josiah race off with Brett & Mark just behind.

Han & Holden scrubbed to the dissatisfaction of the granny and needs to redo some articles of clothing. Jon & Ana call for a check and Ana comments on the thorough check. They are approved and leave in 4th.

Han & Holden call for a second check and even with that, it's not approved. "That's on me." - Holden.

Phil casting bit and commercials.

They did have the chance to use the EP to jump ahead and try to bag the leg, but they did not.
The power of the EP almost wasted.
