**Detour:** Tray It or Spray It?

**Choice A:** *Tray It*
Teams would have to go to the drydock at Titanic Quarter where the RMS *Titanic* was built, where they have to prepare and serve the ship's last five-course dinner to a group of first-class passengers. Using the provided menu as well as a seating chart, teams have to choose the proper dishes for each course from a table full of unmarked plates and serve them to the passengers in the dining room in the drydock. When the waiter is satisfied that each passenger received the correct order for each course of the dinner, the team is allowed to move on to the next course. Once all five courses were served correctly, a Captain Edward Smith impersonator will give them their next clue.

**Choice B:** *Spray It*
Teams would have to go to T13 Skatepark where they have to finish half of a graffiti painting using a photograph as reference. When the crew approves of the job, teams will receive their next clue.
