[edit] Race Overview
Teams face a difficult Detour in Oman, which requires the racers to get up close and personal with several ornery camels in order to receive their next clue. Right out of the Pit Stop, one Team erupts into a war of words and insults. Then, Teams encounter a true roadblock on the Race when they come across a flooded road allowing them a chance for a unique interaction with a kind local who comes to their rescue. Meanwhile, a lonely duo entertains themselves by invoking the ghosts of previously eliminated teams, doing hilarious impersonations of each to help pass the time.

[edit] The Show
Five teams set out from Rio, Greece raced all the way to Jabreen, Oman. Ray & Yolanda bickered at the start of the leg. Teams had to ford a flooded road. Fran & Barry and BJ & Tyler got ahead at the detour. Eric & Jeremy finally ran into bad luck with a stubborn camel and poor navigational skills. The roadblock required digging for food. BJ searched in vain. Fran and Barry hit the mat first becoming the oldest team to win a leg in the race, and though BJ & Tyler were last, they’re still in the race thanks to a long-awaited non-elimination leg.
