Story[]

Route Markers[]

The order of departure from Tầm Vu Park are as follows:

  1. Colin & Christie (1:46 am)
  2. Nicole & Victor (2:10 am)
  3. Chris & Bret (2:25 am)
  4. Becca & Floyd (3:01 am)
  5. Tyler & Korey (3:27 am)
  6. Leo & Jamal (3:50 am)
  7. Janelle & Britney (4:16 am)
  8. Rachel & Elissa (4:40 am)

Teams must fly to Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Upon arrival, teams must take a taxi to a supercar tailgate party in the Al Faqa desert. After sampling tea and dates, they must look inside the cars to find their next clue.

Teams must take a taxi to the Dubai Frame, where they would find their next clue at the top of the tower.

Choice A: Fall
Teams must make their way to the Burj Khalifa and choose a jumpmaster, who would take them to Mission 828. Then, they must each don a virtual reality headset and complete a digital challenge. Once they have finished the challenge, the jumpmaster would give each of them a form in which they would be asked five questions on particular details in the game. If they both answer all five questions correctly, they would receive their next clue. If either member answers a single question incorrectly, they must go to the back of the line before they are allowed to try again. Only two workstations are available at a time.

Colin & Christie, Leo & Jamal, Rachel & Elissa, and Tyler & Korey chose this task.


Choice B: Find
Teams must make their way to Dubai Garden Glow. Once there, they must don Tyrannosaurus rex costumes, then search Dinosaur Park for five different colored dinosaur eggs. Once they have placed an egg of each color in their nest, they would receive their next clue.

Becca & Floyd, Chris & Bret, Janelle & Britney, and Nicole & Victor chose this task.

Teams must take a taxi to Soho Garden, where they would find their next clue.

"Who can feel the beat?"

The team member assigned to perform this Roadblock must enter a silent rave. They must listen to the music on the DJ's headphones, then search among hundreds of partygoers to find one who is also listening to the same music on their pair of headphones using only their sight. Once they bring a correct partygoer to the DJ, they would receive their next clue.

The Roadblock performers per team are underlined:

Teams must make their way to the Amwaj Tower 4, then zip line to the Dubai Marina to check in. The order that teams arrive at the top of the tower would be the order they would check in at the Pit Stop.


For coming in first place, Becca & Floyd each won $5,000.

For coming in last place, Rachel & Elissa will have to perform a Speed Bump at some point during the next leg of the race.
