Linzes read clue as "Dickerson Street."
Cabbie corrects them. It's DICKSON.

Rolly climbs the skinny ladder.
Rolly: Is he a professional?
Man: Yes.
Mom: I'm nervous! My baby, swinging up high!
ROLLY DOES IT ON THE FIRST TRY!!
Mom: That's Amazing!

CLUE: Make your way to Parc Olympique.
Phil: Teams will use a golf cart to search for Stade Olympique. There's only 1 door they can drive through. At Centerfield, the next clue.

[Chateau d If]

That Dickson st place is the Trapeze location!

Okay, so you know it already.  West Coaster here.

[puddin]

Linzes arrive at Trapezium.
Alex will fly.
Brother: Let's go, fatty!
First try, he misses and falls.
Megan: Come on, Alex!

Bransens arrive at the Pavilion, get CLUE.
Off they go, to search for the Porte J.

Ted drops the Weavers at their golf cart.
Mom: He's amazing!
Rachel: Bonjour!
Mom: Please, Lord, help us find our way in. Amen.
Mom tells kids to drive LEFT, because the RIGHT is more common. (Whatevia!)

Alex psyches up.
Megan: He's twice the size of the guy catching him!
Second attempt ... another miss.

Bransens, at Porte J.
Wally: We've caught up! Big time!
Megan: Alex! Do not miss again!
Alex: I cannot do this Roadblock.

COMMERCIAL.

[Pedaler]

Unbelievable,  They're doing all of the Montreal stuff on the 29th.

Puddin,  Your bridge sure is popular.  They sure have shown it enough.

[puddin]

 Alex tries again.
He takes off from the platform ...
A catch!
Linzes get CLUE, head for Parque Olympique.

Bransens and Linzes ask about the Weavers.
"We haven't seen 'em in a long time."

Mom discovers they've circled around one entire time, without finding an opening.

Megan mispronounces, saying "STAID" for "Stade."

Beth Bransen will fly.
Wally: Can you imagine if *I* did this!?
First time, caught! They run off toward the STADE.

The Weavers push a golfcart against a locked and barricaded door, seeing if it will open. BWAH!

At the Stadium ...
The Linzes and Bransens arrive at the same time.
Another contestant says "STAID."
"What's "STAID" mean!?"
Wally sprains his toe while driving. D'oh!
Mom Weaver finds an opening!!
They cheer wildly!
Rolly runs to the cluebox.
Weavers, CLUE: Three departure times from the stadium.
Phil: Must search this 56,000 seat stadium for the three departure times. They don't have to take the first one they find, but they DO have to stick with the first one they TAKE.

[puddin]

MW Question , it was the Weavers that tried to crash the gate

The Weavers push a golfcart against a locked and barricaded door, seeing if it will open. BWAH!

[Chateau d If]

Any clues about where to find the times?

[puddin]

Linzes and Bransens get CLUE, and lament the fact that the Weavers are there already.

The Weavers lament the fact that the task is unfair.

Rolly has a clue in hand. Apprently he left it back where he found it.

Wally: My toe is killing me!

Oops ... NO! The Weavers pay their taxi driver $40/hour and return to the stadium.

Megan realizes they, too, have to pay a taxi driver.

The Linzes and Weavers pass golf carts in the alleyway.
Linz: Good riddance to bad rubbish.
Mom W: They're just sore losers.

There are cots on the stadium turf.

Megan: We're both winning. They're not.
Bransen daughter: We'll help you take them down, honey!

Teams having all hell looking for clue boxes hidden behind seats.
Beth: Dad! You're holding us all up!
Wally: It's gonna take all frickin night. I'm gonna kiss somebody's ass!

Linzes think they've found a cluebox, and run for it across seats.
Rolly carries his sister.

The Linzes find one way up at the top of the stadium.

Bransen: Smokin' ass. Stair steppin' all night long.
Mom Weaver sits.
Mom: If it's that far ...
Rebecca sits.


Linz take 5:50 am Departure.

Teams discover the clues are on the BACKS of the chairs.
Rolly: Can we please go look up there!? You're walking around like zombies!

Linzes take a nap, having found a departure time.

Bransens: 5:45 am Departure. They're done looking.
Wally, joking: Let's hide it and keep looking!

Mom Weaver takes a nap.
Wally limps.
Weaver older sister calls the task "stupid."
Conf: Sis laments that Rolly "is like my Dad. We don't have the same kind of energy he does."

Seeing his sisters mentally defeated, and Mom exhausted, Rolly thinks they're finished.

COMMERCIAL.

[Pedaler]

Are they going to Toronto or to Niagara Falls?  Bransens 5:45  Linz 5:50  Weavers still unknown


They all must be starving and dead tired.  They've had no chance since Montana.

[puddin]

Rolly fights back tears.
R: Please, Mom.
Sis: No. She's tired.
R: Can we please just go find it?
Finally Mom gets up and the kids split, looking through seats for the remaining clue.
Rebecca finds it.
5:55 am.
Mom: Thank God.

Weavers (somehow!) leave the stadium first, for the airport.
Bransens leave 2nd. Linzes leave 3rd.
Okay. The CHARTER PLANES leave at 5:45, 5:50 and 5:55.
Mom Weaver finds out they have the LAST departure.

At 5:45, Bransens are happy to still be in it.

Linzes leave 2nd at 5:50.

Weavers, 5:55.
Mom: We're gonna give our very, very best! We can come back from this! I think we're gonna be the team to beat.

Phil: MYSTERY DESTINATION. Clue is on marked vehicles.

City Centre Airport, Toronto.

SUV, with CLUE: Make your way to La Toure CN (CN Tower.)
Phil: World's tallest building. Take the elevator to the uppermost observation deck. Find the next clue, using binoculars looking over the city.

[puddin]

The Weavers get to the SUV seconds before the Linzes, and stop for directions at a convenience mart.

Mom: We don't have any cash. When you give, it will be given back. I promise.

Man behind the counter GIVES them a map!
Elevator to the top, Bransens take binoculars.
One pair of binocs per team.
They have to search the entire city, from the air, for a TAR Flag.

The Linzes take binoculars ...

... and then the Weavers follow, close behind.
Rolly in elevator: You like your job, Alex?
Elevatorman: It has its ups and downs.

[puddin]

The Bransens and Linzes find the yellow marker. They head out, just as the Weavers arrive to the observation deck.
The Linzes saw it when the Bransens did.
The Weavers don't have any clue.
Mom: It's really frustrating.
Rolly takes the binoculars.
The other two teams descend the elevator.

Looks like G'man was right.  They did have an extended pit stop in Montana.

Megan is now in Orange.  It's the morning of the 31st.

[puddin]

[puddin]

Beth: I hope they take forever!
Megan smiles, nods her head in agreement.

Down they go.
Mom: We can catch them!

The Bransens and Linzes head back to the SUVs.
They have to go to the marker site for the CLUE.

Footrace!

Linz/Bransen, CLUE: DETOUR.
Phil: Ship, or Shoe?
Ship: Sail across Toronto Harbor to the Kijana, climb to the top of a 100 foot mast, retrieve a flag for the next clue. Strong, gutsy teams will finish fast.
Shoe: Search for the Bata Shoe Museum, search 100 women for the exact pair of shoes they've selected.

[puddin]

Mom Weaver reads the "shoe" clue and responds, "Are you kidding!!?"

Weavers head for the sailboat.
They call the Linzes the "GI Joes."
Mom will steer the sailboat.

It looks like a giant dancefloor full of walking women!
Wally: Try this on, please?
Woman: Sorry. Not my shoe.

First at the tall ship, Linz.
Weavers seem to be close behind.
Man to Weavers: You're pretty much steering a perfect course.
Megan: That's HIGH! Omigod!
Alex heads up quickly, gets FLAG.
CLUE: Drive yourselves to the town of Queenston.
Phil: On the Canadian side of the Niagara Falls. They'll take a boat into the Niagara Whirlpool and grab a clue from this buoy.

[Pedaler]

Well, I'm changing my guess about Stassi's picture.  It isn't a Bransen.

Also, no vendor.

[puddin]

Seeing the Linzes leave, Mom Weaver: Well, we're not first but we may be 2nd.

Meanwhile at the Shoe Museum ...
Woman, wrong shoe.
Another woman, wrong shoe.
Wally grimaces.
