KRAZY KAYAKS
Arriving at Shipwreck Beach, Charla & Mirna began trekking along the coast as Eric & Danielle and Dustin & Kandice converged on the beach and closed in on the cousins. Passing Charla & Mirna, Eric & Danielle arrived at the cluebox to discover they had to choose a kayak and paddle out to the shipwreck where a buoy held their next clue.
Only moments apart, the three Teams took to their kayaks with Eric & Danielle in the lead, Dustin & Kandice in second, and the cousins now in last place. They all quickly realized how daunting paddling against the incoming waves was as the Teams inched closer to the shipwreck. Eric & Danielle reached the buoy first and grabbed the clue while Dustin insisted Kandice jump out of the kayak and walk it with her. Kandice complied but then ordered Dustin back in the kayak because she feared cutting her legs on the rocks. After capsizing, the beauty queens muscled ahead and finally reached the buoy.
On the shore, Eric & Danielle learned that they needed to fly over 2,300 miles to the final destination city of San Francisco and make their way to the Old Mint. As the dating couple headed back to their helicopter, Dustin & Kandice arrived on shore in silence after their disagreement on how to kayak. In the car, Kandice spoke up accusing Dustin of being a bad teammate in the situation. A teary Dustin responded, "You're saying a lot of hurtful stuff right now. The fun of this Race is doing it with you. I'd rather not do it if it's like this." The pair eventually reconciled as Kandice said, "I'm not going to drag this out any longer. We have a race to run sister."
Arriving at the Honolulu Airport, Eric & Danielle booked the earliest available flight on ATA to Oakland departing at 11:55pm and landing at 6:57am. Right on the tail of the dating couple, the beauty queens bought tickets on the same flight and soon the cousins joined Dustin & Kandice and Eric & Danielle as all three Teams now prepared for the final face off in San Francisco. Dustin noted, "In not that long, one of these Teams lives are going to change and it's just like who's it going to be?"
CRACK THE CODE
Landing in Oakland, Dustin & Kandice took the early lead over Eric & Danielle in a tight taxi race to the Old Mint. A fork in the road gave the beauty queens the advantage as their driver took the right path allowing the beauty queens to run into the mint ahead of the dating couple. Opening their clue, Dustin & Kandice found a final task testing how well each teammate knows the other. One Team member had to enter the vault assigned to their Team and answer the four questions displayed on the wall: In the opinion of your Team, which other Team is the least trustworthy, has the best sense of humor, is the most overrated, and is the one you most want to stay in touch with? Their answer would create a four-digit combination code corresponding to the Teams chosen for each question that they then had to program into the provided safe locking the clue inside. After leaving the vault, their partner would enter the vault and have ten minutes to match their teammate's answers to the same questions. If they were successful, the safe would open and they could leave immediately. If they failed, they had to continue trying until the ten minutes expired.
Dustin ran into her marked vault and began reading the four questions as Eric stepped into his vault moments behind her. Dustin selected Rob & Amber as the least trustworthy while Eric chose Oswald & Danny. Dustin believed Uchenna & Joyce possessed the best sense of humor while Eric chose Charla & Mirna. Both racers agreed that Rob & Amber were the most overrated Team and that they would stay in touch with Uchenna & Joyce. However, before leaving the vault, Dustin made one change choosing life partners Joe & Bill as the least trustworthy. When Mirna entered the vault, she chose Rob & Amber as the least trustworthy and most overrated, Kevin & Drew with the best sense of humor, and John Vito & Jill as the Team to stay in touch with. |
