phil greets the teams explaining the double express pass is back and there first stop is south americas coast. (the second express pass must be by the end of the fifth leg this time). the call is given by phone sends them to iquique chillie there are two flights they must find the guy from the phone call. american is the first flight and teams want the express pass while tim/marie are already arguing. tim/danny are lost. leo/jamal are 1st to the airport chester and ehraim rowan and shane tim and marie ally and ashley nicky and kim and nicole and travis are on the first flight the others must take the second. ally/ashley immediately bond with leo/jamal forming an alliance. the first clue sends them to alto hospicio and havier will give them a clue teams see hanggliding which has some nervous. nicole/travis get the roadblock clue 1st finding their partner from hang gliding. nicole is doing the roadblock i can’t tell chester/ephreim apart yet ephreim is doing the roadblock as chester hangglides. more teams get the roadblock clue jamal is doing the roadblock as usual can’t tell teams apart yet. marie does the roadblock. shane is doing the roadblock as is nicky (Despite kim being scared). ashley does the roadblock. tim/marie get an advantage with the cabs on some of the other teams because they let them go. nicole/travis are still 1st to land but its rowan/shane in the lead at this point getting the clue heading to another part of town. tim/marie jump to 4th ahead of the afghanimals. the 2nd flight lands at this point. travis has to do a second roadblock sarching the harbour for a certain boat and collect 5 fish. amy does the roadblock as does naina the other teams aren’t sure. rowan does the second roadblock as does leo. tim and chester must do it as does kim and ally. nicole/travis are 1st to be sent to a musical theatre pitstop on foot (they take a taxi by mistake and are given a penalty of 30 minutes costing them 1st and the express passes). so they lose first to tim/marie (due to tim doing well) and they win the express passes. adam does the roadblock as brandon tries to find him. rowan finishes in 3rd as chester has trouble and leo/jamal misread the clue costing them time. danny is doing the first roadblock. more teams finish the leg. leo/jamal make up the time but finish 7th. the teams are confused by the 2nd roadblock clue jason/amy are 8th to finish the task ahead of tim/danny as hostoke/naina finally arrive and make a big mistake on who has to do the fish roadblock (naina thought she had to and is weak at it so big mistake) they are eliminated.
