At the end of their ride, they must recite all three words correctly to the conductor to receive their next clue. If they do not recite all three correct words, they must ride the tram again. In addition, only four racers could be on a single tram at a time.

Halcy & Alex, Nemo & Bean, Peanut & Coby, Phorix & Chook, and Poet & Chic chose this task. At the dock, teams would have the option to **U-Turn** a team, with two slots available and anonymously. Halcy & Alex used the first slot of the **U-Turn** on Phorix & Chook. Phorix & Chook attempted to use the second slot of the **U-Turn** on Mali & Abi, however, Mali & Abi already passed the U-Turn before Phorix & Chook, thus having no effect on them.
Since Phorix & Chook completed the *Grab a Hold* Detour, they would be forced to backtrack and complete the *Make a Mold* Detour before continuing.
