Good Doing Business With You is the eleventh episode of The Amazing Race: All-Stars.
Synopsis[]
Teams come face-to-face with their fear of heights during a harrowing Roadblock that finds the Racers forced to jump-off one of the world's tallest free-standing structures in order to receive their next clue, plunging over 600 feet in the highest "descender" jump in the history of the Race.[2]

- Oswald & Danny (3:41 am)
- Dustin & Kandice (5:23 am)
- Charla & Mirna (7:06 am)

Teams must travel by TurboJET ferry to Macau. Upon arrival at Outer Harbour Ferry Terminal in Macau, teams must find a man with a rickshaw who would give them their next clue.
Teams must take a taxi to "the tallest structure in Macau", leaving teams to figure out that the clue referred to Macau Tower, where they would find their next clue.
At Macau Tower, teams would have the option to Yield a team. Oswald & Danny used the Yield on Eric & Danielle.
"Who's ready to crap their pants?"
The team member assigned to perform this Roadblock must perform the world's tallest skyjump, walking around the outer rim of Macau Tower's observation deck before taking a tethered jump off of the tower to fall 660 feet to the ground in order to receive their next clue.
The Roadblock performers per team are underlined:
Teams must take a taxi to Lou Lim Ieoc Garden, where they would find their next clue.
Choice A: Noodle
Teams must travel to Edificio Fabril Veng Kin, choose a noodle-making station, and use traditional methods to flatten and cut dough into two bundles of traditional Chinese noodles. Once they have done so properly, they would receive their next clue.
Charla & Mirna, Dustin & Kandice, and Eric & Danielle chose this task.
Choice B: Dragon
Teams must travel to a warehouse to pick up a dragon head and drum and carry it 3⁄4 mile to the harbor at Nam Van Lake. There, they had to attach the dragon head to a matching dragon boat and hand over the drum to receive their next clue from the master.
Teams must take a taxi to Rua de Silva Mendes and find marked Mini Mokes to retrieve their next clue.
Teams must drive themselves to the island of Taipa and find Trilho da Taipa Pequena 2000 Park to check in.
For coming in first, Dustin & Kandice won a Yamaha Waverunner for each member.
For coming in last place, Oswald & Danny are "marked for elimination". If they do not arrive first in the next leg, they would be assessed a 30-minute penalty.Leaderboard[]
