Route info: Teams must fly to , . Upon arrival, teams must make their way to Jagershuis in , where they will find their next clue.
Caution: Double U-Turn Ahead!
All teams will be on the same flight.
Bash: "It's so frustrating that not only was last leg a non-elimination, but we're all on the same flight. We are a huge uturn target and I would be shocked if anyone didn't uturn us."
Exploit: "I hold grudges and knowing that there is a team here that unturned us, I would not be sad to uturn them."
Asia: "We have a speed bump so we've got to knock it out. I would love to uturn Bash & Phorix and get them out, and hopefully our allies Bena & Charlotte can do that for us."
Bena: "We do not care for any of the teams. Our least favorites are gone so I just want to be safe."
Abe: "We have one of the best records of all the teams left, so we think there is a good chance that we could be the ones unturned. Bash & Phorix are the biggest threats, but also our shields so we think it might make more sense to uturn a team like Exploit & Hali that we know wants us out. Either way, we need to stay ahead."
Eliov: "A while back I told Nemo & Abe about what Exploit & Hali said, calling them the boring neutral team so they would go after Exploit & Hali."
Flight Lands
Eliov: "We need to be fast."
Nemo: "Wow! We're all here at the same time!"
Speed Bump: Asia & Jojo must pump up the tires of three different bikes before they can continue racing.
Asia: "We have to do this fast before we lose the other teams.

Bash: "Seeing them leave did not feel good because chances are we will not be one of the first two teams there and we will likely be uturned.

Abe: "Here is the uturn."
This is a double uturn where two other teams can uturn two other teams forcing them to perform both sides of the uturn.
Abe: "We're getting close to the end. We saw Swag & Eliov waiting so if they are going to do Exploit & Hali then we should do Bash & Phorix and take out the strongest team."
Nemo & Abe uturn Bash & Phorix.

Swag: "Now the uturn can not be used and they are the only team uturned."

Phorix: "This shoe looks wrong, but why not take it."
Phorix (36th try) success
Bash: "Ok, we've got to book this bike ride!"
Asia: "Oh my gosh! That uturn board looks so nice. Wai! where are Exploit & Hali?! Swag & Eliov messed up a good board!"
Asia & Jojo are doing Shuffle
Exploit: "We tried getting our own directions and got lost so now we do not know where we are."
(cf) Bash: "Phorix felt defeated, but we are a strong team and I knew that we are not getting taken out like this."

Eliov: "Run!"
Jojo: "Come on Asia!"

Phorix: "With being such big targets, I am impressed we made it this far and could not be any prouder."
Bash: "Hello Phil!"
Bash & Phorix, I am sad to say I have bad news. I think you know where you placed.
Phorix: "Yeah, not cute."
Bash: "At this point, even without the uturn, we were far behind and that was just salt on the wound."
I'm very sorry to tell you that you are the last team to arrive. And you have both been eliminated from the race.
Phorix: "I am honestly kind of bitter especially with how dominate we were. But I can not help but feel responsible."
Bash: "I do not hold things to heart nor do I play a blame game. I had fun which is what matters. We were dominate, and Phorix might hold some feelings but I am happy. We ran 9 legs, who can ask for anything more!"
