They Thought Godzilla Was Walking Down the Street

The race begins at the Sixth Street Viaduct in Los Angeles, California, United States.

Teams must fly to Tokyo, Japan. However, before departure, the teams have to compete a starting line task. Teams have to search through hundreds of license plates to find the one of eleven from the Shinagawa District of Tokyo, Japan. The Japanese Symbol for Shinagawa is printed at the top of the clue, but was not identified as such. Once teams present a correct license plate to Phil, they will receive a set of tickets on one of two flights, the first six being on American Airlines leaving at 12:45 pm and the last five being on United Airlines flight departing at 1:15 pm, to their first destination, Tokyo, Japan. The team who fails to find a plate will be eliminated at the Starting Line. Once they have found a correct license plate, teams can drive themselves to Los Angeles International Airport. Upon arrival in Tokyo, teams must travel by taxi to Tokyo Tower Studios, where they will find their next clue.

The order when teams found their license plate was a follows:

1. Maria & Tiffany

5. Gary & Matt
6. Zev & Justin
7. Sam & Dan
8. Mika & Canaan
9. Garrett & Jessica
10. Brian & Ericka
11. Lance & Keri

For not finding a license plate, Eric & Lisa were eliminated from the Race.

The team member assigned to participate in a Japanese-style game show called Sushi Roulette. Once all the teams have arrived at the Roadblock location, the host would spin a wheel with 11 plates of sushi, 2 of which were "wasabi bombs", temaki-style sushi filled only with hot wasabi. If the racer receives a wasabi bomb, he or she has 2 minutes to eat it in order to receive their next clue. If they failed to finish it within the time allotted, they have to play again until they receive a new wasabi bomb and could complete the task. Racers who received plain sushi had to eat the sushi and play until they received a wasabi bomb.
