Teams must fly to Edinburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom. Upon arrival, teams must drive themselves to the Gosford House to find their next clue.

The team member assigned to perform the Roadblock would have to dress in the uniform of the Royal Scots regiment and learn to play a drone on a set of bagpipes while marching with the Royal Scots pipers in Gosford House's Marble Room for two minutes. When the bagpipes instructor is pleased with their performance, he will award them their next clue.

The Roadblock performers per team are underlined:

• Bates & Anthony
• Caroline & Jennifer
• Joey & Meghan
• Max & Katie
• Mona & Beth

Teams must drive themselves to Craigmillar Castle and search the fireplaces for their next clue.

At Craigmillar Castle, Mona & Beth would receive their clue for their Speed Bump. Mona & Beth have to play a game of skittles, a traditional British form of ten-pin bowling. Once they manage to score a "floorer", a strike, before they are allowed to continue.

Choice A: Tasty Puddin'
Teams would have to travel to the Sheep Heid Inn in Duddingston where they had to prepare haggis with oatmeal and ox intestine, in the presence of a Robert Burns impersonator who recited Burns' poem "Address to a Haggis". Once they've each prepared four portions of haggis and have a taste of one, they will be given the next clue.

Caroline & Jennifer, Joey & Meghan, Max & Katie, and Mona & Beth chose this task.

Choice B: Whiskey Rollin'
Teams would have to have to roll eight barrels of Scotch whisky up a slope, delivering them to a party. Once they've delivered all eight barrels, a Scottish country dancer will give them their next clue.

Only Bates & Anthony chose this task.

Teams must travel on foot to Duddingston Kirk to find their next clue.

At Museum Geelvinck, teams would have the option to U-Turn a team, with two slots available. Bates & Anthony used the first slot of the U-Turn on Joey & Meghan. Max & Katie used the second slot of the U-Turn on Mona & Beth.

Since Joey & Meghan completed the Tasty Puddin' Detour, they would be forced to backtrack and complete the Whiskey Rollin' Detour before continuing.

Since Mona & Beth completed the Tasty Puddin' Detour, they would be forced to backtrack and complete the Whiskey Rollin' Detour before continuing.

Teams must drive themselves to Niddry Street South to check in.
For coming in first place, Max & Katie each won $10,000.
