"I can see why the brothers hated you."

Previously on the Amazing Race, 7 teams raced from the Enchanted Sea to the North Pole. Arianna & Julian started the leg in last, but because of the Fast Forward they came in 1st. John had some arguments…with a penguin, and him and Robert ended in last and were eliminated.

Everyone: “Detour, Flower or Field.” 
A detour is a choice between two tasks, each with their own pros abd cons. The choice, Flower or Field. In Flower, teams will have to go to Gobi’s Garden and get Gobi to water all the plants. This is an easy task, but only one team may do it at a time. In Field, teams must go to the bramble field and search for one of 6 clues. This is a harder choice, but teams won’t have to wait to do it.
''
Arianna: “Let’s take the field.”
Matt: “Let’s go field.”
Ashley: “Let’s do the flower.”
Nick: “Let’s try the field.”
Danielle: “I say we do flower.”
Rachel: “Let’s go flower.”
Matt & Tommy, Arianna & Julian, and Nick & Alex: Currently tied for 1st
'''
All three teams arrive at the field and begin to look.
Tommy: “At the last pitstop, we kind of got an alliance going with Arianna & Julian since they were the Fast Forward team.”
Matt: “Now that they’ve no longer got the Fast Forward and all the teams are on equal grounds, we feel that we can get past them in the finish line.”
Arianna: “With us and the cousins in one alliance, we want to see them in the finale because we can beat them hands down.”
Julian: “Also, if we can get either Ashley & Shannen or Nick & Alex into the finale with us, it’ll be a shoe in for us to win.”
Arianna was searching around the field. Wile she was walking, her pants (or rather, Manray’s pants) got snagges on a thorn and, do I even need to say it?
Arianna: “Dose any one else feel a sudden brea…………my pants fell off again, didn’t they?”
Nick: “Yup.”
Arianna then gets down on her knees so nobody can see her underwear.
Ariana (unconfortably): “The thorns are painful.”
Back at the flower detour, Danielle & Tom had just arrived.
Tom: “Man that was hard to find.”
Danielle: “At least we’re the only ones here.”
The two start to water as Ashley & Shannen arrive.

Arianna: “Hey guys, theres a U-Turn.”
This is the first of 2 U-Turns located throughout the race. A U-Turn allows one team to force another to go and complete the other sife of the detour. Teams may only use their U-Turn once, so they must descide when it’s most necisarry.

Matt: “All right, then what’s the clue say?”
rip

Rachel: “We U-Turned Nick & Alex because they are our biggest competition. They’ve beaten us to the pitstop 4 out of 5 legs and we hope to see them leave next. No offense to them, it’s just strategy.”
Rachel: “Intersection.”
Renee: “Great, now we have to wait for another team.”
