Sarah: "We’ve got to get past it this time."
Abe: "You hate to see anyone go out that way but these are Alex & Wilted we're talking about so I'm not too sad. We know that with them gone, we now have an easier path to the final leg."
Bash: "Our plan failed. Alex & Wilted are gone."
Halcy: "And it’s all because you had to be a big mouth!"
Bash: "HEY! THAT WAS AN ACCIDENT!"
Halcy: "TRAITOR! YOU WANTED TO USE US TO GET OUT ALEX & WILTED AND YOU FOUND YOUR CHANCE!"
Bash: "YOU REALIZE THERE’S A U-TURN, RIGHT?!"
Halcy: "AND GUESS WHO’S GOING TO BE ON THERE?!"
Bash: "NOT IF WE GET THERE FIRST!"

Ashley: "Wonder what the new day will bring."
Cloud: "So what are we doing about this U-Turn."
Ashley: "You know where I stand. We did you guys a favor last time so we think it’s only fair that we U-Turn Getsome & Sarah."
Abe: "Alright, that’s fair."
Sarah: "We didn’t expect a third U-Turn."
Abe: "And what’s the plan for it?"
(cf) Ashley: "If I get my way, Getsome & Sarah will be gone for good this time."
(cf) Getsome: "My view of Ashley hasn’t changed since our last race. I still think she’s immature."
Sarah: "Ashley's made it clear that she wants our heads so we have to do them."
(cf) Abe: "It is clear that Halcy & Pie and Bash & Phorix hate each other now. And Clara & Ashley and Getsome & Sarah never got along. So we’re just sitting back in the middle. I don’t care who gets there first as long as they remember the plan…to use it on the team you hate."

Pie: "I got a little movement out of it but I’m not sure what to do next."
Phorix: "Everyone is getting their boxes to move. This will be a fast-paced leg. I can feel it."
Ashley: "I’ve almost got it."
Pie: "UGH! I thought I was making progress but I’m stuck again."
Getsome: "I am getting nowhere now."
Ashley: "Nevermind. I am stuck."
Cloud: "I’m seeing little things I can do with this to make it move."

Ashley: "What do you mean?"
Clara: "Think. Getsome & Sarah are the weakest team left. What team do we know that’s the strongest one left."

Getsome: "I guess we go back. It’ll take a miracle to get out of last now."
Abe: "Yeah, it hurts right there."
(cf) Abe: "I have not skated since I fractured my arm at a party. The trauma was too much to try again so when i hurt my arm again, I thought I was gonna lose it. But if we don’t get this done, we’ll be done."

Getsome: "This leg proved that anything can happen in this race. We survived the U-Turn and we’re going for the gold."
Sarah: "From this point on, it all comes down to us as a team with no alliance. We’ve done it before and we can do it again."
Cloud: "What now?"

Cloud: "Alright, let’s do it!"
Cloud & Abe make it around.
3:54.
Abe: "YES!!!"
Cloud: "WE DID IT!"
(cf) Cloud: "Today did not go as we’d planned but we still got to do some cool things and I even got to show off my game!"
Cloud: "This is a cool gallery."
Abe: "You can say that again."
(cf) Abe: "We’ve pulled off some amazing moves and made our mark on this game. From the way we started to the way we finished, we’ve improved greatly."
Cloud & Abe, you are the last team to arrive. And I’m very sorry to tell you that you have been eliminated from the race.
Abe: "Tough. This is the first time I didn’t make it to at least leg 11. But I guess it makes me look back and appreciate all the times I did make it there."
Cloud: "I had a blast this time. We didn’t win, but I wouldn’t change a thing."
Abe: "It’s been a blast running with Cloud, and we’ll see how these teams handle the pressure moving forward."
Cloud: "We should go back to that museum lol"
