Penniless after a last-place finish in Corsica, dating actors Hayden & Aaron soared to the top as Teams traveled to the lush countryside of Ethiopia. With Teams neck and neck through much of the leg, battle lines were drawn when former dating couple Adam & Rebecca yielded engaged models Freddy & Kendra in an effort to help married entrepreneurs Jonathan & Victoria, who made a critical error after misreading their clue. In the end, the Yield didn't help, as Jonathan & Victoria became the sixth Team eliminated from THE AMAZING RACE.
INTO AFRICA…AGAIN
Departing the Pit Stop at La Pietra at 12:12 am, Adam & Rebecca opened their first clue to discover they must travel by ferry to Nice, France. Once there, they had to make their way to the city garden to find their next clue in front of a bust of World War I hero Albert I. Because the first ferry to Nice left Corsica at 11:30 the following morning, all six Teams caught up. However, last-place Hayden & Aaron, stripped of all their money, faced the challenge of finding enough money to pay for tickets. After asking a series of locals and tourists, Hayden & Aaron raised the necessary funds just in the nick of time to join the remaining five Teams on the ferry to Nice.
Landing in Nice, Jonathan & Victoria got the jump on the other Teams by snagging the first cab in a race to the city garden, while long distance dating couple Kris & Jon struggled to find an available taxi. Arriving at the statue of Albert I, Jonathan & Victoria opened their clue to discover they must fly 4,500 miles to Addis Ababa, capital of Ethiopia. After landing, they had to find a ticket counter to sign up for one of two charter flights to a small town known as Lalibela, tucked away in the highlands of Ethiopia. The Teams' next clue would be waiting on van windshields outside Lalibela's airport.
Arriving at Nice International Airport, the six Teams jockeyed for the best flight to Addis Ababa. Married pro wrestlers Lori & Bolo appeared to be out in the lead alone by taking an early flight to Rome, but Jonathan & Victoria, Kris & Jon and Adam & Rebecca all caught up the next morning when all four Teams took the same flight from Rome to Addis Ababa, landing at 10 pm. Unable to secure this route, the model alliance, Freddy & Kendra and Hayden & Aaron, settled for a Lufthansa flight landing in Addis Ababa at 3 am.
