Episode 7 - They've Crossed The Line!!
Previously on RealShowFan's The Amazing Race 2...The seven remaining teams flew to a new continent, and arrived in the capital of Australia.
Juanita: Fly to the capital of Australia!
Cathy: Canberra! Yay! We've been there!
Sofia had her check-up...with satisfying results.
Sofia: How's my leg?
Medic: There isn't much problem.
Teams, once again, were bunched.
Adolph (conf.): This race has been becoming more predictable leg by leg.
Mary-Jean: I sense more...bunching.
Some teams risked the time researching the city by looking for better flights, none have succeeded.
Adolph: This is the ONLY flight in I don't know...a month?
Justin: Dammit! That lead would've been worth it!
Cecilia & Jean bought a map for themselves for half the price.
Cecilia (conf.): We had the map, since we're the ones that bought it, and don't plan on sharing it.
Jean (conf.): We will bring the villain out of evil
lain.
The second Fast Forward of the race required teams to go deaf.
CD Player: *BEEP*

Sofia found the right CD.
Sofia: I won it...........YESSSS!!!!
That soared her & Josh into first place.
Phil: Josh & Sofia, you, are team number...1!
Josh: Yes! We're out of bad luck!
At the Roadblock, teams struggled finding their gnomes' true colors.
Justin: VERY DIFFICULT! Finding a gnome, amongst all that chaos!
Cecilia: This is the most hectic thing I have ever done!
Cecilia (conf.): The most annoying part of the task were the kids.
And struggled more in a dizzying Detour.
Cecilia: This will be fun.
Josephine: WOAH!
Mary-Jean: Hey! That's a lot!
But Adolph & Juanita's struggle and confusion with transport...
Juanita: I cannot believe we are in last right now.
Despite Juanita's efficiency in the Detour.
Juanita: This is yummy.
Juanita (conf.): I don't think of it, so I'm not aware I'm getting myself dizzy.
They landed in last place.
Adolph: It's okay. We had fun.
But were saved by the very first, much awaited, Non-Elimination Leg.
Juanita: I want to kiss you right now, Phil!
Adolph: I want to kiss you too, Phil!!!!!!!
Phil: But with good news, comes the bad news. During the next leg of the race, you will encounter a Speedbump, an extra task that only your team must perform.
SEVEN TEAMS REMAIN!!! WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT???
Phil: This is Canberra, the capital of Australia. In the heart of the city, the Australian War Memorial. This vast building commemorating the brave people who sacrificed themselves for the country during the wars of the Commonwealth, is the sixth Pitstop in a race around the world. Teams arrived here at the end of last leg for a mandatory rest period, where they can eat, sleep, and talk with the other teams. Can Josh & Sofia maintain their big lead? Will Adolph & Juanita survive the very first Speedbump of the season? What other evil antics will Cecilia & Jean do? And teams will face a new twist, which teams will be victims of it? Josh & Sofia, who were the first to arrive at 4:55am, will depart at 4:55pm.
First To Depart: 4:55pmSofia: Please let us stay in Australia...
Josh: Take a bus to Mildura!
Sofia: Where is that?
Josh: I have no idea. :duno:
Phil: Teams must proceed to Mildura, a large regional city in Sunraysia.
Once there, they must find Apex Park, the largest inland beach of the country, for their next clue.Josh: You have 119USD for this leg of the race.
Sofia: Compared our money with the rest of the teams...We're the poorest.
Glorietta & Arnold, BOY, they're rich!
Josh: I know! It's amazing!
Sofia: Someone should really Toll them, not the other way around!
Josh: There better be a Toll coming soon.
Sofia: Oh, here's the bus.
The ACTION bus took them to the bus station.
Sofia: Excuse me, how do we get a bus to Mildura?
Bus driver: You're in the right bus, this goes to the bus station. You can go look at the schedule of the Greyhound Pioneer Station.
Sofia: Oh great, thanks.
Greyhound Pioneer Station:Sofia: This is it! It says Greyhound!
Josh: Where's the counter?
Sofia: There!
They headed up to the schedule.
Sofia: Hmm...
Josh: Oh, there it is. Mildura...Every thirty minutes.
Sofia: The bus left?
They searched for the bus.
Lady: Sorry, the next bus leaves at 5:30pm.
Sofia: Dangit!
Josh: It's okay.
They boarded the bus.
Second To Depart: 5:15pmJean: Rip it!
Cecilia: Woo...Take a bus to Mildura. Once there, find Apex Park for your next clue.
Jean: Hold up!!! Bus!!
Cecilia: Yes!
Cecilia (conf.): One week into this game. Wow!
Jean (conf.): I hope this beats RTAR1's 20 days.
Cecilia (conf.): Yeah. How come RTAR spends fewer days to do everything than the real TAR?
Jean: We're heading to the bus station now.
Cecilia: It's getting dark...
Greyhound Pioneer Station:Bus driver: Okay let's go.
Sofia: Yay! No one's here!
Josh: The Fast Forward was SO worth it!
Sofia: I hope it's like this everytime now!
The bus left for the one-hour journey to Mildura.
Josh: We have to pay 101AUD for the ride.
Sofia: That is so screwy.
Third To Depart: 5:29pmCathy: Melbourne or Perth, please!
Justin: Hmm...Take a bus to Mildura...
Cathy: I know it's in the Victoria region, but I've never been there before.
Justin: I have!
Cathy: So...how do we get there?
Justin: We need to go to the bus terminus since we need to take a bus.
They waited for an ACTION bus to take them there, and they were off.
Greyhound Pioneer Station:Cecilia & Jean's bus arrived at the terminus.
Jean: Woo...Where to?
Cecilia: To Mildura...Mildura...
Jean: There it is.
Cecilia: Every thirty minutes. Next one is at 6 o'clock.
Jean: I bet we
just missed the first one.
They search for Josh & Sofia, to no avail.
Cecilia: They are so ahead now.
Fourteen minutes later, Justin & Cathy found them.
Cathy: Hi guys!
Cecilia: We're waiting for fifteen more minutes.
Jean: I am so bored...
The four people asked locals the best way to get to Apex Park.
Fourth To Depart: 5:45pmJosephine: You have 119USD for this leg of the race.
Mary-Jean: Ka-ching!
They boarded the bus to the station.
Greyhound Pioneer Station:Cathy: The best way is the bus.
Jean: Hopefully it's not ACTION bus.
Cecilia: Jean, it's almost time, let's go.
Justin: Do we have to pay the fare?
Bus driver: Yes, of course! 101AUD.
Jean: Really??
Cathy: Wow...I bet Glorietta & Arnold will be so pissed off.
They kept talking and paying the money slowly, giving Mary-Jean & Josephine time to get to the bus.
Josephine: There it is! I see teams!
Cecilia: The Can-Cans are here.
Justin & Cathy and Jean: Go!! Close it!
Bus driver: Okay...Sheesh!
Josephine: STOP!
Bus driver: Okay...
Jean: Dangit!
Mary-Jean (panting): What dangit? Phew!
Mary-Jean (conf.): Jean was urging the driver to close the doors!
Josephine (conf.): We thought she was our friend.
Mary-Jean (conf.): It's a shocking revelation.
Josephine: Thanks for leaving us.
Jean: Sorry, caught off guard...
Jean (conf.): Now we need Mary-Jean & Josephine out because they are now our enemies.
Cecilia (conf.): Yours at least.
You should've kept your mouth shut.
Jean (conf.): We don't like them, to begin with!
Cecilia (conf.): But strategy-wise, yes, they need to go. We'll get them whenever the opportunity comes.
The bus left for Mildura.
Fifth To Depart: 6:25pmJ.T.: Take a bus to Mildura!
Sixth To Depart: 6:25pmGlorietta: Once there, find Apex Park...
Last To Depart: 6:25pmJuanita: You have 119USD for this leg of the race.
Juanita (conf.): We're spared from elimination last leg. We are so thankful for it!
Adolph (conf.): Now we have a Speedbump to overcome.
The three teams easily boarded the bus.
Glorietta (conf.): The footrace was like a wake up call for me. Since then I stopped arguing with Stephen, but he keeps glaring at me.
But I've stopped. If I want to enjoy this honeymoon with my husband, I have to focus on the race and my husband and not get into fights.
Stephen: We can go to the Greyhound Pioneer Station.
J.T.: Alright! Let's hit it!
J.T. (conf.): Being the last all-male team...man, just saying...No all-male team made it in RTAR1...That's a big shame...
Stephen (conf.): It's like a flashback into The Amazing Race Asia. RTAR1 became a rerun of it.
J.T. (conf.): We're ready to break the barrier here.
Mildura Bus Station:The first bus carrying Josh & Sofia arrived.
Josh: We're here!
Sofia: So how do we get to Apex Park?
Josh (getting clue): Hmm...anyway.
Sofia: No taxis in sight...Hm...
It took them some time to figure out they have to take a bus, and some more time to find a bus.
Sofia: Does this go to Apex Park?
Bus driver: Yep!
Sofia: Great. Josh, this is it!
Josh: 4AUD...
Sofia: At least we have a commanding lead.
Greyhound Pioneer Station:The last three teams found the bus and boarded it.
Adolph: We have to wait until 7pm.
Juanita: I hope the Speedbump comes early!
At 7pm, the bus departed.
Apex Park:Sofia: Oh wow...Look at the sunset!
Josh: Wonderful time to be at the beach!
Sofia: Where's our clue?
Josh: My goodness. This is vast!
Mildura Bus Station:Cathy: Cecilia, come with us! Here's the bus!
Josephine: Come on, Mary-Jean!
Mary-Jean: Okay!
Jean: Wait up!
All six of them boarded the same bus and it left.
Apex Park:They finally found the cluebox.
Sofia: Roadblock! Who's ready to take a swim, then relax in a caravan?
Phil: A Roadblock is a task that only one team member must perform. In this Roadblock, that team member must head out to swim and retrieve ten differently colored flags. Once retrieved, they must swim back to shore and find a marked caravan. Then, they must search around it for ten differently colored balls. Once found, they must head back to the beach and hand the ten flags and ten balls to the lifeguard with their next clue.Josh: I'm doing it.
Sofia: Good luck, sweetie.
Josh: You take care of youself!
Josh got to his skivvies and swam out.
Josh: Woah! I forgot it's evening and cold!
Sofia: Oh!
Keep swimming!
Josh: Brr...
Despite the cold, Josh efficiently retrieved the ten flags of different colors.
Josh: Let me see...ten. Yes! Now...the caravan...
Josh swam back to shore.
Josh: Brr...
A bus arrived.
Justin: Josh & Sofia are there.
Josephine: It's a Roadblock.
Sofia: Josh, they're here.
Josh: I see! Where's that caravan?
He found it and began searching.
Josh: This'll take time...
Justin: Roadblock! Who's ready to take a swim, then relax at a caravan?
Cathy: Hmm...You do this.
Justin: Okay then...
Cecilia: You again, Jean. I hate the water.
Jean: Ugh. Okay.
Josephine: I'm doing it.
As they all swam out...
Cecilia: Hey, Mary-Jean, please forgive Jean. She didn't mean it.
Mary-Jean: Humph...Honestly, I lost respect for her. What she said was so immoral to what an alliance and friendship should be.
Cecilia: Well then, I'm just seeking forgiveness for her.
Mary-Jean: I'll forgive, but we'll not forget.
Cecilia: It's okay...
Josh found all ten balls.
Josh: Here it is!
Lifeguard: Good job. Here is your next clue.
Josh: Yes! Sofiaaaa!
Sofia: Yay!
Josh: Make your way to Kings Billabong for your next clue.
Phil: Teams must now find this wildlife reserve, with many activities and beautiful sightseeing areas, for their next clue.Sofia: I'm so proud of you, babe!
Josh: Let's go!
They found a bus with a stop there.
Sofia: Someone says it'll take 32 minutes tops to reach Kings Billabong.
Josh: And that buses come every 45 minutes. So we're lucky to be here!
Cathy: You got this, Justin!
Justin was the first to return to shore with the ten flags.
Justin: Now the caravan!
Justin searched for the caravan in the vast area.
Cecilia: Don't give up, Jean!
Jean was struggling so much.
Jean: I can't do this! I just can't!
Jean (conf.): I'm not a good swimmer. There were a couple of flags that were too far.
Mary-Jean: Come on, Josephine! It's just like Cirque du Soleil!
Josephine: Okay, okay!
It took some time before Justin finally found it.
Justin: Gosh...this is big...
He began searching. Josephine retrieved her ten flags and returned to shore.
Josephine: My goodness...I need some rest...
Mary-Jean: Take your time, dear.
Jean continued to struggle for her last two flags.
Jean: I need a life vest.
The lifeguard threw floaties to her.
Jean: Heehee. Thanks...
Justin found the ten balls.
Lifeguard: Good job. Here is your next clue.
Justin: I'm freezing...
Cathy: You did so well.
Justin: Kings Billabong, let's go.
Jean: I'm back!
Cecilia: Yay!
Josephine and Jean searched aggressively in the caravan while Justin & Cathy waited for a bus.
Mildura Bus Station:The final bus arrived and the three teams readily searched for the bus stopping in Apex Park.
Arnold: Glorietta, right here.
Stephen: Oh, I see it!
The bus left.
Adolph: Dammit! We missed the bus!
Juanita: Ugh...Why does this keep happening to us?
Adolph: Australia's not our place...
Kings Billabong:Sofia: Is this it?
Josh: Yes, get off!
Sofia: Now...our clue?
Josh: Oh dear...
Sofia: Hours of Operation: 7PM to 7AM.
Josh: Great, just great.
Sofia: So much for commanding lead.
They were given tents and they had to camp out.
Apex Park:Jean: I found them all!
Josephine: Me too!
Lifeguard: Good job, you too.
Jean: You're looking hot!
Josephine: Mary-Jean: Great! Let's go!
Cecilia: We can't let them beat us!
They exited the beach entrance, only to find Justin & Cathy walking in circles.
Cecilia: No bus?
Cathy: No...
They all waited, now all six people walking in circles.
Mildura Bus Station:They finally boarded a new bus.
Adolph: We desperately need to make up for this lost time.
Juanita: We're going for the episode quote to get time credit.
Adolph: Haha...
Apex Park:The bus finally arrived.
Justin: At least we're not in the wrong place.
They left, the three teams in the bus.
Josephine: Lookie here...Team Shorties and Survivors just came.
Mary-Jean: Wow...No Adolph & Juanita?
Josephine: They're prob there as well.
Mary-Jean: I hope they make it and the argument between
those two teams will be gone by one of them eliminated.
Glorietta & Arnold and Stephen & J.T. found their clue.
Glorietta: Roadblock!
Stephen: Who's ready to take a swim, then relax in a caravan?
J.T.: Relax? This race is not relax!
Arnold: Do you want to do it? Or do you want me to do it? I've done four, you've done one.
Glorietta: Man, why this? It sounds physical already. You do it.
Arnold: Ugh...I think I only have two or three more chances to do a Roadblock after this...
Glorietta: Sorry baby!
J.T.: I'm doing it!
Stephen: This is so you! Country boy to ultimate rescue! The ladies will go wild!
J.T.: Yea okay. I'm ready!
Arnold: How do I beat him???
Arnold (conf.): I'm not a cold person. I'm the type of guy who loves the heat. And boy, it was FREEZING there! And it's a beach! Freezing at the beach in Australia! That's not normal!
J.T. dominated the swimming portion, quickly returning to shore before Adolph & Juanita's bus arrived.
Juanita: We can still catch up.
Adolph: No Speedbump yet...
Glorietta: Dangit...
Adolph: Roadblock...
Juanita: I'll do it.
Adolph: Don't let me down!
Juanita: I won't! I'll do my best!
Stephen: You got this J.T.! YES!
J.T.: Got it!
Stephen: If only I were a girl, I'd kiss you!
J.T.: Is this right?
Lifeguard: Congratulations. Here is your next clue.
J.T.: Kings Billabong.
Stephen: You were awesome.
Arnold had seven while Juanita had four. Arnold struggled to swim farther.
Glorietta: Don't give up!
Arnold: It's hard!
Arnold (conf.): I'm short, so I couldn't feel the bottom with my little feet! It was hard.
Adolph: Go Juanita!
Juanita: I CAN DO THIS!!!!!
Outside the park, Stephen & J.T. found the bus to stop at Kings Billabong, but had to wait.
Stephen: This sucks. I just hope our lead won't dwindle because of this.
J.T.: My hard work for nothing man.
Stephen: 'Tis okay...I think. At least we beat Glo-(is cut off)
J.T.: Enough of that talk!
Stephen: What?
J.T.: That talk! You don't have to fight with her every single minute! She's bored of the fighting too.
Stephen: I'm just doing that to put her down. Helps you know.
J.T.: I don't think so. It's pulling us down too.
Stephen: Yah okay. I'll do what I want. I don't want to fight with you.
J.T.: Just saying that you should cool off the argument.
Adolph & Juanita completed.
Juanita: Make your way to Kings Billabong.
Arnold was in the caravan portion of the task.
Glorietta: Don't give up!
At the bus stop...
Adolph: J.T.! Stephen! What's wrong?
Stephen: We're waiting for the bus.
Adolph: Dang! That non-last place gone again!
J.T.: Good luck with it, by the way.
Juanita: Thanks.
It's almost 9pm, the time the bus is scheduled to arrive....................................................
Lifeguard: Good job! Here is your next clue!
Arnold: Yay!
Glorietta: Kings Billabong. It's night now! This is not good!
Arnold: Let's go!
Glorietta: Hmm...
They exited the park...The bus arrived...The two teams boarded it...The bus closing...Glorietta & Arnold saw it...They ran for it...BANG!
Bus driver: HEY!
Local1: What's your problem??
Glorietta: Let us get on!
Local2: What's wrong?
Stephen: Geez...
Juanita: Wow...
Juanita (conf.): Glorietta BANGED the door. I understand we're in a race but, wow, no need for such force. I wouldn't've done that if I were in that situation, even with a Speedbump to overcome!
Adolph (conf.): Big disrespectfulness on her part.
After much hesitation.........
Bus driver (sighing): Okay...
Glorietta: Thank you so much!!
Bus driver: You're paying double though, for that.
Glorietta: WHAT??
Bus driver: Oh come on! You should be lucky it's not damaged!!
Local1: Just pay it and get over with it!!
Glorietta: Ugh! Fine!
Glorietta (conf.): I did not mean to bash the bus. It was a desperate situation, I needed to do that.
Arnold (conf.): Well...err...yea.
Glorietta (conf.): You can't say you don't agree with me!
Arnold (conf.): Well it was an accident so it's understood.
Arnold: We have 222AUD now.
Glorietta: Is the number two a bad or good number?
Kings Billabong:At 8:44pm, the second bus arrived and the three teams in it found the Hours of Operation board. They all picked the number tags.
Justin: Team 2!
Mary-Jean: Team 3...
Jean: Team 4. It's okay.
They all camped out for the night.
Cecilia: Ugh...What the hell...
Cecilia (conf.): I didn't want to camp out. Are you joking me? It's dirty! I'd rather go a million miles to find a hotel!
Justin (conf.): Cecilia was muttering and complaining...It's annoying.
Cathy (conf.): But we've been in situations like these many times, and much worse than this, so we're okay with it.
At 9:32pm, the final bus and final three teams arrived.
J.T.: Team 5.
Adolph: Team 6...ugh.
Glorietta: Last team...
Arnold: Oh no...
Glorietta: On the plus side, lucky seven.
Arnold: On the pluser side, we're all bunched.
They all camped out for the night.
J.T.: This is nothing compared to Survivor.
Stephen: Haha, yeah.
Slept and slept...As Day 8 of the race approaches...
Day 8, 7AM @ Kings Billabong:Everyone wakes up...
Stephen: We're ready to rock.
J.T.: Yah.
Adolph: Maybe the Speedbump's in there?
Juanita: It should've been yesterday so we're definitely bunched again but
nooooo...
Sofia: Our lead's pretty much gone but we're okay with it.
Josh: I just hope we don't end up fourth again.
Everyone entered Kings Billabong in order...
Josh: Detour!
Cathy: Shoot Them!
Mary-Jean: Or Paddle Them!
Phil: A Detour is a choice between two tasks, each with its own pros and cons. In this Detour, teams get to experience the wondrous nature of the Australian wildlife. They get to Shoot Them or Paddle Them.
In Shoot Them, teams must find the Bird Hide Loop Walk where they can find a camera and use that to photograph five different birds. Once done, they must go back to the start for their next clue. This task appears to be long and tiring and frustrating, but teams with steady hands and good with photo taking may shoot themselves to first.
In Paddle Them, teams must find the canoe docks, grab a marked canoe and with the guidance of a skilled canoe rower, complete a long lap around the river. Once done, they will receive their next clue. This task doesn't require a lot of foot work and steady hands, but teams without the balance and strength might be paddling themselves to last.
Sofia: Paddle, less footwork.
Josh: Okay.
Cathy: We're doing Shoot Them.
Justin: I just hope our accuracy is good.
Mary-Jean: Let's do Paddle Them.
Josephine: Yeah. It's faster and sounds easier.
Cecilia: No brainer. Shoot Them.
Jean: Yup.
J.T.: Oh this is an easy choice!
Stephen: Paddle Them!!
Adolph: Let's Shoot Them! I've done photo taking on birds before!
Juanita: Really? Cool!
Arnold: We're doing Paddle Them. We need tasks that don't require our feet.
They all separated to their respective Detour choices.
Shoot Them:Cathy: Here's the Bird Hide Loop Walk.
Jean: Looks like we're all in this together, my friend.
Juanita: Us too! We need to get ahead!
The three teams began walking, each with a camera at hand in ready position.
Juanita: Five birds...Different species...
Adolph: Got one.
(1/5)Jean: Where???
Cathy: Come on...Ugh...ugh...ugh!!
Justin: Got it!
(1/5)Juanita: Yes! I got a blue one!
(2/5)Adolph: Ha! I got the hawk! Or is it eagle?
(3/5)Juanita: Wow! This is easy! Because of you!
Jean: Dang!
Justin: Got another one...
(2/5)Paddle Them:Sofia: Here it is.
Josephine: Let's go!
Stephen: We're confident with this!
Arnold: Woo...
They all got ready and paddled on different canoes. Stephen & J.T. immediately pulled ahead.
J.T.: Yah!
Stephen: Keep rowing!
Stephen (conf.): That was definitely our forte.
They pulled farther ahead.
J.T.: Yah.
Sofia: Wow, they're fast.
Josephine: They're so good, it's unbelievable!
Mary-Jean: They're Survivors so I'm not impressed.
Shoot Them:Justin & Cathy had three, Cecilia & Jean two, Adolph & Juanita on their last one.
Juanita: Oh! There's a yellow one!
Cathy: Got it!
(4/5)Justin: One more!
Jean: Shot! Yes!
(2/5)Adolph: Hmm...
Juanita: Come on...
*CLICK*
Adolph: YES! Let's go back!
Juanita: YAHOO!!
Cathy: Aww...
Cecilia: They have a Speedbump anyway...
Jean: I hate it when nature's deciding our fate.
Paddle Them:Stephen & J.T. completed the lap quickly.
Man: Here's your clue!
J.T.: Yeah!
Shoot Them:Woman: Good job!
Adolph: Read it!
Juanita: Find Trentham Estate!
Phil: Teams must now find this winery for their next clue.Juanita: Caution: Speedbump Ahead!
Adolph: Finally!
Paddle Them:Stephen: Caution: Yield Ahead!
Phil: If a team is Yielded, they must turn this hourglass and wait until the sands are all down before continuin on with the race. However, only once can a team use the Yield so they must decide on the best time to use it.The two teams exited the area and asked locals how to get to Trentham Estate. They figured out it's by bus and they both took the same bus.
Stephen: Good luck with your Speedbump!
Juanita: Haha thanks. I'm so scared.
J.T.: At least we have the lead!
Juanita: Paddle Them:Josh & Sofia and Mary-Jean & Josephine completed the lap. Glorietta & Arnold struggled.
Josh: Let's go!
Mary-Jean: Gosh!
Shoot Them:Cathy: Find Trentham Estate!
Justin: Good luck, ladies!
Cecilia: This sucks...
Cecilia & Jean had three.
Outside Kings Billabong:Sofia: Guys, let's work together to find this estate.
Mary-Jean: Yah. You'll be better to work with than the girls.
Sofia: What's wrong with them?
Josephine: Long story.
They found the bus just in time. Justin & Cathy, however, couldn't find it, a few minutes later they did.
Cathy: Dangit!
Justin: Let's just wait...
The last two teams completed the Detour just in time to catch the final bus, along with Justin & Cathy.
Cecilia: It's amazing how fast we can fall to last place.
Justin: I hope we can catch up...
All teams are now on separate buses, in three buses, to Trentham Estate.
Trentham Estate:The first bus arrived at 7:38am.
Juanita: Speedbump!
Adolph: This is it! Enter the winery where the 30th anniversary of the Jazz, Food & Wine Festival is going on. There, find the yellow-red-yellow marked whiskey glass in all the party. Once found, drink the glass so that the person with the glass will hand you your next clue.
Phil: In this Speedbump, Adolph & Juanita must enter the winery and amongst the festivities, find the marked glass. After they have found it, one of them must drink the contents of the glass that is whiskey before receiving their next clue in hopes of making up this lost time.Adolph: Oh gosh, I don't drink!
Juanita: I will, then. Let's go. This sounds like a scary task...
J.T.: They have their Speedbump.
Stephen: Should we Yield? I have someone in-(is cut off)
J.T.: We're not Yielding!
Stephen: What??
J.T.: Too late! Proceed to the crazy garden maze in Woodsies Gem Shop and find the center of the maze for your next clue!
Phil: Teams must go to Woodsies Gem Shop and find their way to the center of the maze where their next clue is.Stephen: Alright! Ugh!!!
J.T.: Let's go! We're saving our powers for later!
They both boarded a bus stopping there.
Stephen: Man, we're so poor now.
J.T.: We need to start beggin'.
Stephen: Okay.
They begged for money in the bus.
Trentham Estate:Juanita: This is a lot of people...
Juanita (conf.): There were so many people, it seemed impossible to find our man!
Adolph (conf.): And all the glasses were marked with different color combinations. It is so confusing.
They looked carefully at each and every glass, no luck so far.
Juanita: Come on...
Adolph: Yellow-red-blue...red-yellow-red...yellow-black-yellow...white-red-white...yellow...red...blue-white-purple...black...
Adolph (conf.): Colors everywhere!!
Juanita: This is insane...
7:48am has past...The second bus arrived.
Sofia: Trentham Estate...hmm...
Josephine: There's the cluebox!
Sofia: The Yield!
Josephine: We're Yielding!
Josh: We're not Yielding then.
Mary-Jean: Josephine, who are you planning to Yield?
Josephine: We need our revenge somehow! They attempted to let us lose time, let's intentionally waste theirs!
Mary-Jean: I agree!
Josephine: Now we can talk to them. Next clue.
Mary-Jean: Okay...Woodsies Gem Shop.
Josh: Bus?
They asked the locals and were told they can take the bus. They found a bus and were headed.
Adolph: Come on...
Juanita: Where is it??
Adolph: JUANITA!!! HERE!!!
Juanita couldn't hear him because of all the commotion.
Adolph: Follow me, please, excuse me!! I need to move! Juanita!!! Where are you???
Juanita kept looking...
Juanita: This is difficult...
Adolph: JUANITA!!!
Juanita: Hmm...
Adolph: JUANITA!!!Adolph finally found her.
Adolph: JUANITA! We're losing time!
Juanita: What? You found it! I'm so sorry!
Adolph (panting): Here!
Juanita: Sorry for that...
Juanita drank the whiskey.
Juanita: Ugh...That was horrible!
Man: Good job. Here is your clue.
Juanita: We spent around twenty minutes for that!
Adolph: Are you drunk?
Juanita: Erm...maybe. I don't want to get eliminated drunk.
Adolph: Woodsies Gem Shop.
They found the bus stop, but the bus wasn't there. Three minutes later, the final bus arrived.
Adolph: Dangit!
Justin: They're still here!
Cecilia: Here's the clue!
Arnold: Umm...Guys...Look...
Cathy: Oh! I'm so sorry!
Cecilia: What??
Jean: HEY!!!!
Cecilia: We're Yielded AGAIN!
Justin: I thought they were your friends?
Jean: Not anymore! They've crossed the line!!
Cathy: Aww...Sorry, guys.
Cecilia & Jean flipped the hourglass and waited.
Glorietta: Find the center of the maze.
They went to where Adolph & Juanita were waiting.
Cathy: You did the Speedbump?
Juanita: Yah. Apparently took too much time...
Arnold: Here's another race for last...
The bus arrived at 8am and they left.
Cecilia: Dang it...
Jean: We're last now.
Now I regret doing that action.
Cecilia: Karma's a big pain right now.
Woodsies Gem Shop:At 8:05am, the bus arrived.
J.T.: Maze? Does anyone know where the maze is??
Local: Over there! Aladdin's Cave is over there!
Stephen: We just want the maze.
They tried to find the center of the maze.
J.T.: You do the work, Stevo.
Stephen: Thanks...Hmm...We did a similar challenge in Tocantins, you were the first to finish the course!
J.T.: Oh yah, I was!
They worked together and eventually found it before a bus arrived.
Stephen: Yeay!
J.T.: Woo!
Stephen: Make your way to the next Pitstop! Irymple Hotel Motel! Hurry! The last TWO teams to check-in WILL be eliminated!!!
J.T.: Whaaaat???Phil: Teams must make their way to the next Pitstop, Irymple Hotel Motel. This motel and hotel in the region of Victoria is the next Pitstop of the race. In a surprise twist, the last TWO teams to check-in here WILL be eliminated!J.T.: That is whacked!
Stephen: Has there ever been a leg excluding the first that has a double elimination??
J.T.: I don't know. But let's get the bus just in case! We may be in last!
Stephen: Or sixth!!
They managed to barely hop on a bus going to the hotel. Four minutes later, the second bus arrived.
Sofia: Okay, let's look.
Mary-Jean: Hmm...
At one point, the two teams separated...One found it first.
Sofia: Oh here it is.
Josh: Pitstop! Irymple Hotel Motel!
Sofia: Hurry! The last
TWO teams to check-in will be eliminated!
Josh: Two??
Sofia: Yah!
Josh: Oh gosh. Do you want to shout to let M.J. & J. know where it is?
Sofia: We'll not help them much. But they're easier to beat in the final leg, okay.
Josh: GIRLS!! If you can hear us, the clue's here!
Josephine: Oh! We hear ya!
Mary-Jean: We're going towards your voice now!
Sofia: And hurry! There's a double elimination!
Mary-Jean & Josephine: WHAAAATT!!!?!
Josh & Sofia managed to find the exit of the maze before Mary-Jean & Josephine found the cluebox. Josh & Sofia hopped into a bus without them. Mary-Jean & Josephine continued to struggle.
Josephine: They probably left.
Mary-Jean: Oh no. This is not happening!
Josephine: Relax! We may not be last yet!
Irymple Hotel Motel-Pitstop:A bus arrives in front of the house right beside the hotel. A couple descends from the bus.
Greeter: Marni, welcome to Mildura, Australia.
Stephen: Marni?
J.T.: In what language?
Greeter: Haha, Kaurna, southern Australia.
Stephen: Ohhh...
J.T.: By the way, you look pretty!
Greeter: Haha, thank you.
Stephen: What do we get, Phil? And, oh, Jet, you flirt in Survivor, not here.
Phil: Okay...
Stephen & J.T., you, are team number.........................................................1!J.T.: Woah!!! WOO!
Stephen: Yah! Our first win!!!
J.T.: That is wicked!
Phil: And as winners for this leg of the race, you have won.............Now I know you were in Survivor, and that's a game made for outdoorsy camp-loving people, but are any of you techno guys?
J.T.: No, I am definitely not!
Stephen: I'm a bit, well, maybe, I like gaming...
Phil: Well, you have each won an iPhone 3GS!!
Stephen: iPhones??? Wow!!!
J.T.: Woo!! Worth it!!
Phil: So...Finally, you got the placing many others would expect you to get.
Stephen: Yes! Finally!
J.T.: We finally have the reign!
Phil: Just a fun and unusual fact, you guys are the first male-male team - EVER - in the history of RTAR, well, that's two seasons, to check-in first in a leg.
Stephen: Kind of an understatement.
J.T.: This race just needs to be more physical!
Phil: And, also, now this is a real shame to all male-male teams out there if I mention this topic, you are officially the record holders for highest finishing position for a male-male team in RTAR history.
Stephen: Yay, we rock as males!
Phil: Now, how much of a chance do you think you have on winning?
J.T.: Just as much chance as the rest.
Phil: Now, this leg immediately puts you at 5th as the worst case scenario.
Stephen: Wowzers, we didn't expect a double elimination.
Phil: Well anyways, great job.
J.T.: Yah! Let's celebrate for the rest of the time being we have alone here!!
Stephen: Woo!! We rock!
Trentham Estate:Jean: Done!
Cecilia: Finally! Proceed to Woodsies Gem Shop.
Jean: Come on!
They waited on the bus stop.
Cecilia: This sucks.
Jean: I hope it's a Non-Elimination Leg...
Woodsies Gem Shop:Josephine: So there it is!
Mary-Jean: Dangit!
Josephine: Pitstop!
Mary-Jean: Okay, let's go!
The third bus came. The three teams emerged out of it. Mary-Jean & Josephine waited at the bus stop.
Juanita: The maze?
Cathy: Come on!
Glorietta: We're short! We can pull through this!
Justin: How can short help?
Arnold: This is crazy!
Josephine: I think that bus over there is our bus.
Someone found the center.
Cathy (whispering): There it is. Let's go.
Justin: Come on.
They exited the maze with no one else seeing them.
Cathy: Stop the bus!
Mary-Jean: Close! Close!! They tried closing the bus we want to go in before!
Bus driver: Sorry but as a driver I have to let open.
He let them in.
Justin (panting): Phew...Made it...
Josephine: Okay, so I guess we're even with our enemies!
Cathy: Pfft, whatever. How dare you Yield them.
Mary-Jean: Just...how dare you try to avoid us from getting into that bus?
Cathy: I hope the girls made it through.
Adolph: Come on...
Glorietta: I found it...
Arnold: Let's go...
Juanita: I am sick of these searching tasks...
Adolph: Ehh? We're at the entrance again?
Juanita: Argh!
Adolph: This is crazy...

Josephine: Yah. Them and our supposed friends Cecilia & Jean-(is cut off)
Phil: Wait, wait a minute. I thought you guys were tight?
Mary-Jean: Not anymore, Phil! They tried to screw our game.
Josephine: I thought they'd be ladylike. We can get cutthroat as well. We just Yielded them, as a good proof.
Phil: Well, I can only to please don't take it as far as how Stephen and Glorietta took it.
Josephine: Don't worry. 'Cause they're going.
Cathy: Ugh...
Phil: And with that, there's only one spot left to be safe from this leg.
ONE SPOT LEFT!!!!!!!

Arnold: I'm just playing.
Phil stares at them with
those eyes.
Glorietta: Oh gosh, no Phil!
Arnold: Don't Philiminate us!!!
Phil: Glorietta & Arnold, you know this leg will be a Double Elimination Leg right?
Glorietta: Oh shoot. Yes, we do.
Arnold: I hope we're team 5 at least!
Phil: Glorietta & Arnold, you, are team number.......................................................................................................................................5!Glorietta: NO!! Oh, YES!!!
Arnold: Phew! What a close one!
Phil: Okay, I just noticed Glorietta had that reaction again, that she just had last leg.
Glorietta: Deja vu!
Phil: So, in the first few legs, you guys were the impressive ones, locking out in good positions, and now you're just barely surviving them!
Arnold: We're just not meant for Australia, that's all!
Phil: Well, hopefully you can catch up to the teams. Congrats! You just barely survived!

Adolph: Oh no.
Juanita: Bummer.
Phil: You guys have been through a lot.
Adolph: And we've enjoyed every minute of it.
Phil: Had there not been this predetermined elimination, you'd still be in the game.
Juanita: It's sad...
Juanita (conf.): In this race, Adolph and I have been through a lot together. It just makes me love him more than ever.
Adolph (conf.): I'm thankful we get to be a part of this, it helps strengthen our relationship a lot.
