This Is Not My Finest Moment
November 1

Last time, the Racers headed to Atlantis, where a roadblock forced the Harlem Globetrotters out of it temporarily. A miracle happened as Mika couldn't overcome her fear of water, dropping her and Canaan to last place and out of the game. Now six teams remain as the race continues from the desert...

PIT STOP
DOLPHIN BAY BEACH AT THE ATLANTIS
DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES
1313 LOCAL TIME

Meghan & Cheyne were, again, the first to arrive, so after the break, they're off and running.

ROUTE INFO

FLY TO AMSTERDAM!

Fly more than 3000 miles to the city of Amsterdam in the Netherlands! Once there, drive yourselves to Afsluitdijk and find the Cornelis Lely Monument, where you will find your next clue.

Meghan & Cheyne find a taxi and they head off. They're the first to arrive at the airport... The earliest flight is going out at midnight, so all of the Racers are going to meet up with each other.

And that's precisely what happens. Big Easy tells the story of how Mika lost the race for her team. Meanwhile, Sam and Dan come out as "the token gay team."

After that bit of camaraderie, it's time to head to...

AMSTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS

First to the cars are Gary & Matt, who head out. Meanwhile, Brian & Ericka are stuck thanks to their non-familiarity with luxury Dutch vehicles.

One after another, the teams find the statue and get this clue...

ROUTE INFO

MAKE YOUR WAY TO MARTINITOREN!

Drive to the city of Groningen and make your way to Martinitoren, the highest tower in the city, where you next clue awaits.

We hear a lot of "Brian!" in this leg of the Race. Just a heads up.

Meanwhile, Meghan & Cheyne are the first to find...

ROADBLOCK

WHO'S GOT STRONG LEGS AND KEEN EYES?

Climb up the stairs of the Martinitoren and count the bells in the carillon along the way. When you give the right number to the carilloneur, he will give you your next clue.

Meghan decides to take on this Roadblock, as does Sam, Flight, Matt, Tiffany, and Ericka. They need to come up with "62".

And did we mention that the carillon player was going to play as you climb? That doesn't stop Matt, who gets this...

ROUTE INFO

MAKE YOUR WAY TO VIERHUIZEN DE MARNE!

Drive to the town of Vierhuizen de Marne and find Windmill De Onderneming, where you will find your next clue.

Sam & Dan pull ahead when they notice Gary & Matt looking for directions.

Ericka's the only person to miss the correct number. And not by a little... by a lot.

Meanwhile, the teams find the windmill in Vierhuizen de Marne... And this clue.

DETOUR

FARMER'S GAME or FARMER'S DANCE?

In both Detours, you must don traditional Dutch farmer's outfits.

FARMER'S GAME: Strip down to your farmer's underwear and swim across a stream to a set of golf clubs. Then play a round of farmer's golf. You must finish at or below a par 3 in order to receive your next clue.

FARMER'S DANCE: Find a country festival, where you must grab a hammer and hit the bell atop a high-striker. Then you will have to learn and perform a traditional Dutch farmer's dance. When you have danced to the instructor's liking, you'll receive a herring with onions, which you will have to eat to receive your next clue.

Sam & Dan are the first to dress up (Dan decides to be "the girl"). Meanwhile, Ericka gets... closer to the right amount.

Flight and Big finally arrive at the town.

Sam & Dan go to the game. They get the first hole at par. Meanwhile, Ericka... still doesn't have the right number.

Gary & Matt ring the bell and start to dance. Meanwhile, Sam & Dan finish the Detour.

ROUTE INFO

MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE PIT STOP!

Ride your bikes to Zoutkamp Harbor in the town of Zoutkamp in the Netherlands, the Pit Stop for this leg of the Race.

WARNING! The last team to check in MAY BE ELIMINATED!

Meghan & Cheyne... clearly not golfers. But they sink the first hole. Meanwhile, Gary & Matt... can't dance. And to top it off, Matt doesn't like fish, so they end up golfing. Meghan & Cheyne finish their course and head to the Pit Stop.

Maria & Tiffany arrive at the high-striker... but can't ring the bell. Meanwhile, Ericka finally rings the carilloneur's bells and gets the clue.

PIT STOP
ZOUTKAMP HARBOR
ZOUTKAMP, THE NETHERLANDS

Sam & Dan greet Phil and the happy local, who inform them that they're team #1, and the winners of a pair of sand buggies!

Meanwhile, Maria & Tiffany have tried 30 times... and to no avail. On the other hand, Flight & Big try once... and boom. On to dancing.

Meghan & Cheyne clock in at second.

Brian & Ericka arrive a the Detour and decide to dance, just as Maria & Tiffany decide to swim. They have a better time hitting... their clubs. Back at the Detour, Brian & Ericka forget their bikes. Flight & Big eat fish... though Flight Time has a hard time finishing it.

Maria & Tiffany return to the high-striker for attempt #31. Between them and Brian & Ericka walking, this is a battle to avoid last place. But Brian & Ericka remember their bikes.

The Globetrotters are still racing at #3.

After 71 tries... Maria & Tiffany still haven't gotten the hang of it. So they go BACK to the golfing.

Gary & Matt clock in the four-spot. Meanwhile, Brian & Ericka learn to dance. They nail it and the fish to get the Pit Stop clue. They are the fifth team to arrive, but due to their not going back for their bikes, they incur a 30-minute penalty, effective NOW.

Thirty minutes, they officially clock in to fifth place.

That leaves Maria & Tiffany... and Phil to come out to the course to get them. They officially quit, with all the other teams already checked in. Sorry, but the poker players are drawing dead.
