-Underwhere Road-
Cara & Janelle; Currently in 5th
Janelle got to the top level. She also got the clue on the ceiling.
"Cara?" Janelle called.
Cara was lying down on the top level with her eyes closed.
"Cara!?" called Janelle once more.
Cara didn't budge.
"Oh my Arceus!" Janelle exclaimed. "Cara wake up!"
Janelle was already panicking while shaking Cara when all of a sudden the latter shouted "BOO!"
Janelle shrieked and shouted loudly. Cara laughed hysterically.
"YOU!" said Janelle.
"AHAHAHA!" laughed Cara. "I'm glad you finally finished. Three hours is too much for a rappelling task."
"Sorry," replied Janelle.
"That's fine," replied Cara. "Let's go."
They went to see the hags and they got their clue.
Cara & Janelle; Currently in 5th
"Go outside," read Cara. "Sort the books alphabetically to receive your next clue."
"That shouldn't be hard," said Janelle.
-Higher Underwhere Road-
The two chose a gazebo and reacted wildly after seeing their set of books.
"AHH!" shrieked Janelle aloud.
"AHH!" Cara shrieked loudly.
"OMG!" said Janelle. "RECIPE BOOKS!"
"I'm gonna copy this to my notebook," said Cara.
"I wanna know how to make pie!" said Janelle.
While the two were distracted, they barely sorted the books. When they filled one shelf with books in alphabetical order, some event was happening below them, literally.
-The Underwhere-
Lilly & Kelly: Housemaids
Carol & Giselle: Comrades
Ben & Romana: Models
The plane the three teams were on "crashed" to the Underwhere. They went out after some time and started an argument.
"Great!" said Lilly sarcastically. She had an angry tone when saying, "Just great! We took horrible flights, terrible delays, and now we're stranded in hell!? No joke but this place looks like hell!"
"Lil, chill," said Kelly. "Oh cool they rhyme!"
"What are we gonna do now?" asked Carol.
"We get out there and look for some way to get there," replied Giselle. "These two housekeepers are being useless. What more with the models?"
"Hey!" reacted Kelly, Ben, and Lilly in unison.
Romana said, "What!? I am gonna get you killed!"
"Shut your big mouth! It's true after all!" said Giselle.
"Stop! Please STOP!" said Carol. "I am really, really sorry about my partner, so just ignore her."
"How can we ignore her if the plane just crashed, and she told us that we're useless?" said Lilly. "Go ask her if she's useless."
"Tell that to me again and I will bite you, silly Girafarig!" said Romana in a serious tone.
"Do Milotics bite!? Hahaha!" said Giselle.
"STOP!" said Carol. "GIS!"
"Girls! Girls! Girls! Stop!" said Ben. "Let's just move on. We shall find an airport that will take us to the Overthere."
"You idiot!" reacted Romana. "Airports don't take us from one place to another."
"Yeah!" agreed Giselle. "Only airplanes do."
Ben fell silent and awkward from that situation. He couldn't react to it at all.
"It's a good idea," said Kelly. "Let's just look for flights if we find an airport."
"Chances are, there'll be no airport," said Lilly. "What on hell are you talking about? And you Giselle! I'm not done with you yet!"
Kelly also felt awkward from that. Before Giselle could say something, Carol started talking.
"Let's ask first before we assume," said Carol.
"What the hell!?" reacted Giselle.
Carol approached the janitor by the fountain and asked him, "Excuse me, but do you know where the airport is?"
The janitor paused and said, "There are no airports here."
The five team members, excluding Giselle, gave the janitor a dumbfounded look.
"You are in the Underwhere," replied the janitor shayde. "This is level 0. It is a place for those advneturers who have fallen."
"See?" said Lilly. "Told you we're in hell."
"But you can't assume before..." said Kelly.
"Hold on a moment," said the janitor shayde. "Are you from The Amazing Race Pokémon?"
Some team members nodded.
"Well well well," he said. "Guess none of you are dead then."
"Dead!?" said Giselle. "Of course we're not! What do you think are we?"
"Dead adventurers," he replied. "I have your next clue."
"I knew it!" said Giselle.
The other five team members widened their eyes. Each team got its clue.
Lilly & Kelly; Currently in 6th / 7th / Last
Carol & Giselle; Currently in 6th / 7th / Last
Ben & Romana; Currently in 6th / 7th / Last
"Make your way to the Underwhere Castle," read Lilly.
"Which is also the entrance to the Underwhere Road," read Ben.
"Once there, you will receive your next clue," read Carol.
The three teams ran to the direction of their destination wildly. Lilly and Giselle reached the ferry first, which is by the end of a river. Before the two could fight, especially because Lilly said that she wasn't done with Giselle yet, the others came. On that ferry is a wicked-looking Charold wearing an orange warlock hat and an orange coat. He carried a stick on his hand.
"Where the hell are you going?" interrogated the guy.
"Where the hell do you think we're going?" argued Giselle.
Charold remained silent.
"What? To the other side of course!" replied Giselle. "Duh!?"
"Then that'll be twenty coins per head," he replied.
"Tell that to my partner," said Giselle. "I'm not holding the money."
Charold remained silent from that awkward moment. He completely did not expect it.
Carol said, "How much again?"
"Twenty," said Charold in a monotone.
All the teams gave him their payments. All three teams boarded the ferry and the guy started rowing. There were some arguments while the three teams were in the boat, even Charold was dragged into it, even though he tried ignoring them and their argument. The camera didn't show any of these arguments anymore, but there were no physical fights fortunately. They reached the other side of the river after some time, and all six team members ran to the dark building which could be seen from nearby. Lilly and Giselle, as quadrupeds, got to the castle entrance first. They each received a clue from Queen Jaydes.
Lilly & Kelly; Currently in 6th / 7th
Carol & Giselle; Currently in 6th / 7th
Lilly ripped open the clue envelope to see a platinum card, a blue pamphlet, and a green one.
Lilly read, "Make your way up in the Underwhere Road. Look for a D-man and tell him, 'I challenge you to kill the beast.' in order to receive your next clue. Show this card to the dark doors for them to permit you in."
Lilly also noticed the fast forward clue. Kelly caught up and saw it. She was about to react to it when Lilly glared at her.
"We are NOT ruining our day further for a fast forward!" said Lilly.
Kelly submissively nodded, and the two went in to the Underwhere Road. Ben & Romana arrived not long after.
Ben & Romana; Currently in Last
They read the clue and went in. Giselle was still waiting for Carol.
Carol & Giselle: Comrades
"I'm so sor..." said Carol.
"Shut up!" said Giselle.
"You left me! I thought I was suppose to be riding on your back!?" said Carol.
Carol reread the clue and the two went in.
-Higher Underwhere Road-
Cara & Janelle: Best Friends
The two were left with only twenty more books to sort. They were so distracted that it took them two long hours to almost complete it. The camera zoomed in to a part of the shelf. Three books were not in the correct order. After a few minutes they almost finished the task.
"I have five recipes now," said Cara.
The two waited for the clue to come, but none came.
"We must have made a mistake," said Cara.
"Let's check again," said Janelle.
Not long after, they found the three books that were in the wrong order. Cara arranged them properly, then the clue fell from the ceiling. The string made it not fall all the way to the floor.
Cara & Janelle; Currently in 5th
Cara read, "Ride the elevator out of the Underwhere and make your way by taxi to the Overthere Stair."
They walked towards the chamber and rode the elevator.
-Overthere Stair-
The whole place is filled with clouds. Clouds here, clouds there, clouds everywhere! There are a few bouncing clouds around the place. There are huge numbers made out of clouds around the place, so that tourists or immigrants who are making their way on foot to the Overthere won't get lost. On the centermost part of the place is a cloud like any other, but there's a Nimbi playing a grand piano at that time. It was a female Nimbi playing the Overthere theme. One taxi parked at the bottommost cloud.
Lea & Glace: Twin Athletes
"The two guys aren't here yet," said Lea, talking about Harl & Natt.
Glace said, "That's weird, we left at the same time. Probably they're ahead of us."
Glace took a clue from the cluebox and ripped open the clue's envelope.
Lea & Glace; Currently in 1st
Glace read, "Continue your way up to the Overthere. It is where you'll find the cluebox."
"Oh," said Lea. "I was expecting the detour."
"The detour is probably somewhere there," said Glace.
The two went back to the cab, which left afterwards.
-Underwhere Road-
Lilly & Kelly; Currently in 6th
"Roadblock, who has the courage to climb out of darkness?" read Lilly.
"I'll do this," volunteered Kelly.
"Hurry!" said Lilly, who's still in a bad temper. "That crazy Girafarig is coming."
While Kelly was getting prepared, the last two teams came. Carol & Giselle were able to catch up to Ben & Romana due to Giselle's fast galloping. Even though it was dark, she didn't hit any walls. Carol was on her back that time.
Carol & Giselle; Currently in 7th / Last
Ben & Romana; Currently in 7th / Last
"Can you do it faster than me?" asked Carol to Giselle.
"You do this Benjiboy!" commanded Romana. "I did the last two."
"Okay, so that we can get out of here quickly," replied Ben.
"Good then," said Romana.
Giselle never needed to reply to Carol, because the former already took the clue from the latter. Afterwards, the former got herself prepared.
-Overthere Stair-
Harl & Natt: Best Buddies
The two got out of their cab. Harl was about to pay the driver, but Natt told the driver to wait for them instead.
"But he got us lost!" said Harl.
"I know, but what if we still need him?" said Natt. "Remember, in this situation, a bad cab is better than no cab at all."
Harl & Natt; Currently in 2nd
Natt read, "Continue your way up to the Overthere. It is where you'll find the cluebox. Good thing we didn't tell him to go yet."
The two re-entered the cab, which left afterwards.
-Underwhere Road-
Kelly – on roadblock
Giselle – on roadblock
Ben – on roadblock
The three rappelled up as fast as they could.
Kelly said, "Oh shoot! Slow down!"
"Shut up!" replied Giselle.
Ben just remained silent.
"Wait for me, please!" begged Kelly while rappelling.
"No way in hell am I waiting for you!" said Giselle.
Giselle and Ben rappelled faster, leaving Kelly at one point.
"Shoot," said Kelly softly.
-The Overthere-
The Overthere is still abundant with clouds, but this time, there are a lot of ancient-looking structures around the place. Some are elevators, while others are houses. The place is civilized and its citizens never commit crimes. Lea & Glace got out of the cab and ran to the cluebox.
Lea & Glace; Currently in 1st
"Detour, blessed foot or cursed fruit?" read Glace.
"The Overthere is the heaven of the Paper Dimension in the Mario Galaxy."
A panorama of the Overthere was shown.
"Residing here are Nimbis who are passionate about different things. Most of these passions include two of the most common things around the Overthere, ballroom dancing and fruit tasting. Their choice: blessed foot... or cursed fruit."
The view of a ballroom was shown. Nimbis dressed in formal attire danced gracefully.
"Blessed foot requires teams to go to the Overthere Ballroom. They must change into formal attire and practice dancing the waltz. After practicing the dance, the team members must dance with each other, along with a few other Nimbi couples who will all be in the same room. If the dance was satisfying to the Nimbis who are watching, especially to Mr. Waltbi, they will receive their next clue. If the dance was unsatisfactory, they need to go back and practice the dance all over again."
An old Nimbi with a mustache and a fedora posed by pretending to give out a clue.
"In cursed fruit, teams must go to the Overthere Fruit Laboratory. Once there, they must wear lab coats and will be assigned to three unwell Nimbis, each of which have different ailments. Their job is to find three different cures, in forms of apples, which they will have to find around the Overthere Stair. They may use the fruit guide book in the lab to look for the fruits that they'll need, and they may use cloud cabs while searching for the fruits in the Overthere Stair. Once they have retrieved the fruits, they must feed those to the three Nimbis assigned to them. If the Nimbis are all cured, they will receive their next clue. If not, they have to go back to the Overthere Stair and keep looking for the correct fruit."
A smart-looking Nimbi wearing a pair of glasses and a lab coat posed by pretending to give out a clue.
"I don't wanna dress up as a guy," said Lea.
"Me neither," added Glace. "Let's do cursed fruit then."
"Sure," agreed Lea.
The two left the place.
-Overthere Stair-
Harv & Clairene; Currently in 3rd
Harv & Clairene read, "Continue your way up to the Overthere."
"It is where you'll find the cluebox," ended Harv.
The two went back to the cab, which left afterwards.
-Overthere Fruit Laboratory-
Lots of lab coats are hanging by the entrance. The lab has lots of different rooms. They have light gray walls and ceilings and have light blue flooring. Several Nimbis wearing lab coats and lab glasses are working on experiments. Lea & Glace entered the lab and wore a lab coat each.
Lea & Glace – on cursed fruit
"What should we do first?" asked Lea.
Glace replied, "Let's read the clue again. I don't understand all this completely."
The two took some time to read, and read, and read the task details over and over again.
"Let's check the book," said Glace.
A female Nimbi approached and greeted them in an Overtherian accent, "Good greetings ladies! Art thou hither f'r the curs'd fruit detour?"
The twins nodded.
"Alright then," said the Nimbi with the same accent. "Thou may calleth me Doct'r Appbi. I am a research'r in the Fruit Lab'rat'ry. Cometh with me."
The two followed the doctor Nimbi. The twins saw glass cages with Nimbis inside. The Nimbis all look sick in different ways.
"Thou shalt be assign'd to Nimbis numbereth one, six, and nine," said Doctor Appbi. "Calleth me when they'st art all well."
The doctor went back to her work. Lea & Glace inspected the index cards sticking in front of the cage.
Lea read the number one's index card, "Name: Zoombi; Nickname: Zoom; Condition: Ate a slow-fruit."
"How sad," said Glace. "So the cure is definitely a fast-fruit. I have number six's."
"Read on."
"Name: Scienbi; Nickname: Sci-bi; Condition: Became a zombie after an experiment."
"Ow."
"Here's number nine's: Name: Laughbi; Nickname: Laughbi; Condition: Cried a bucket of tears, literally, after breaking up with her boyfriend."
"Aww... now that's really, really sad."
"We need a laughing fruit for this. Now let's look for the book."
The two went to the book near the entrance.
-The Overthere-
Harl & Natt; Currently in 2nd
The two were reading the clue at the entrance of the paradise.
"We are doing cursed fruit because there is no way I am gonna dance," said Natt. "We shall release the bad taxi now."
"Fine," said Harl submissively, since he wanted to do the dance.
-Overthere Fruit Laboratory-
Lea & Glace – on cursed fruit
"We need the rainbow-spotted, fuchsia, and glowing light fruits for the three," said Glace to the camera.
The two left the lab. They found a cab that could take them around to the Overthere Stair.
-Underwhere Road-
Kelly – on roadblock
Giselle – on roadblock
Ben – on roadblock
Giselle got the clue on the ceiling. Ben was not far behind her. Kelly was a bit far from either of them.
Carol said, "Nice one Gis!"
Lilly was annoyed with Carol's cheer. Romana looked down to check on Ben, who was approaching.
Romana said, "Hurry up Benjiboy! Why did you let that Girafarig beat you?"
"Okay wait!" said Ben. "I'm coming for ya, Ma."
Carol & Giselle; Currently in 6th
The two left the area right away. Ben got the clue soon after.
Ben & Romana; Currently in 7th
They left the area as well, leaving Lilly alone on the top level.
Lilly said to the camera, "Kel better be here soon, or we'll end our race in hell."
Carol & Giselle; Currently in 6th
The two arrived in the hags' room.
"Go outside. Sort the books alphabetically to receive your next clue," read Carol.
While they were leaving, Ben & Romana came in.
Ben & Romana; Currently in 7th
They read the clue and left the area.
-Higher Underwhere Road-
Carol & Giselle: Comrades
Ben & Romana: Models
They each chose a gazebo. The two teams had different reactions.
"Hmmm..." said Carol. "There's no time to read all these."
Giselle took a book and checked the contents.
Giselle said, "I've read this already."
On the other gazebo...
"Understanding Unisexual Fashion," read Ben.
Romana read, "Hottest Shoes in the World. OMG!"
Ben wondered where shoes will fit for a Milotic.
-Overthere Fruit Laboratory-
Harl & Natt – on cursed fruit
The two were shown leaving the lab. Their footage on reading the book and the index cards were cut out.
"We gotta get a good cab this time," said Natt.
The two entered the new cab they have found.
-Higher Underwhere Road-
Ben & Romana: Models
The two were distracted with the books and magazines.
"Best Underwear for Men!" exclaimed Ben.
"You're a chicken," said Romana. "This is not the Pokémon World."
Romana continued reading the Smooth Skin magazine word per word.
Carol & Giselle: Comrades
The two weren't that distracted. They will look at some books' covers for a few seconds, then they'll put it on the shelf while reminding themselves that they're still racing.
-Overthere Stair-
Lea & Glace – on cursed fruit
The two saw a white tree with rainbow-spotted fruits hanging on it.
"Please wait for us," Glace told the cab driver.
The two went out of the cab to get the fruit. Lea easily climbed up the tree and plucked a fruit from it. She dropped it to the ground and Glace caught it.
"Alright, next fruit," said Glace.
The two went back inside the cab.
-The Overthere-
Harv & Clairene: Dating
Another team arrived. The two ran to the cluebox nearby.
Clairene said, "Look at these clouds!"
"They're super soft!" said Harv.
Harv & Clairene; Currently in 3rd
Harv & Clairene read in unison, "Detour, blessed foot or cursed fruit?"
"Oh Harv!" exclaimed Clairene. "Let's dance!"
"Great idea!" agreed Harv.
"We're doing blessed foot," announced Clairene.
-Overthere Stair-
Nick & Lester; Currently in 4th
Lester read monotonely, "Continue your way up to the Overthere where you'll find the cluebox."
The two went back to their cab.
-Underwhere Road-
Kelly – on roadblock
Kelly was shown getting the clue on the ceiling.
"I thought I got stuck," said Kelly.
"We better hurry," said Lilly. "It's too early for us to go home."
Lilly & Kelly; Currently in Last
They got their clue and went to the hags' place. They got their clue from that place and went to the Higher Underwhere Road.
-Higher Underwhere Road-
"We have lots of time to make up," said Lilly.
The two started arranging housekeeping books and magazines.
Lilly commented, "This is such a weird collection."
Kelly was about to read a book about mechanical brooms.
Kelly said, "Look what I found."
"There's no time to read when you're fighting for last," reminded Lilly.
Lilly started arranging. Kelly hesitated if she will read it or not, but she decided to just leaf through the pages.
-Overthere Stair-
Harl & Natt – on cursed fruit
Harl climbed up the white tree to get the mauve fruit. He plucked it out and dropped it to Natt.
"Next fruit," said Natt.
The two went back to their cab.
Nick & Lester: Band Mates
The two were sitting quietly in their cab, until Nick saw the twins.
"It's Lea & Glace," said Nick.
"So?" replied Lester.
"Aren't they suppose to be ahead?"
"Maybe they're just lost."
"We should help them."
Before either of them was able to tell the driver what to do to help the twins, they saw Lea & Glace step out of the cab. They saw the twins getting a bright glowing fruit from the white tree.
"Maybe it's a detour," speculated Lester.
"Yeah maybe," said Nick.
Lea & Glace – on cursed fruit
"We're just missing one more," said Lea.
"Yeah," said Glace. "And that's the fuchsia one."
The two went back to their cab.
Harl & Natt – on cursed fruit
Since the next fruit was near their first one, they found their second fruit right away.
Harl said, "I'm a grass type, but I'm not really that good in climbing trees. It's just that sometimes... climbing trees are part of my act."
Harl plucked the fruit and dropped it to Natt.
"One more," said Natt. "It's a violet fruit."
The two returned to the cab.
-Overthere Ballroom-
This place is not too different from the typical ballrooms for dancing. This place has marble white floor and ceiling and than marble brown flooring. The ceiling is shaped like the inside of a dome, because when viewed from the outside, the Overthere Ballroom is in fact an actual dome. The young couple arrived.
Harv & Clairene – on blessed foot
"We pick you!" said the couple to a male Nimbi and a female Nimbi.
Those Nimbis, who'll be their dance instructors, led them to the dressing rooms.
-Higher Underwhere Road-
Lilly & Kelly: Housemaids
The two continued sorting the books.
Post-leg confessional:
Lilly said, "Doing the book sorting task was a pastime of mine. It reminded me of my job and Madam Melia's library. She lets me read a few books when there's nothing else to do."
Back to the race...
The two saw Carol celebrating.
"We better hurry while the models are still here," said Lilly.
Carol & Giselle; Currently in 6th
Carol read the clue and left the area with Giselle and their camera crew.
"I'm glad we're beating those two housemaids," said Carol. "We should be sixth right now."
"Those smart**s housemaids are going home today, unless those stupid models mess up big time," said Giselle.
Lilly & Kelly: Housemaids
Lilly hurried up arranging the books, while Kelly was semi-distracted with the books and magazines. They were halfway through at that point.
Ben & Romana: Models
The pair of exes read magazines. They were almost halfway through by this time.
-Overthere Ballroom-
Harv & Clairene – on blessed foot
The female Nimbi said, "Then it goes liketh this."
The female Nimbi twirled while the male Nimbi was holding one of her hands.
"See?" said the male Nimbi.
Harv & Clairene nodded.
-The Overthere-
Nick & Lester; Currently in 4th
The two got their next clue.
"So they did cursed fruit," said Nick.
"So are we doing that as well?" asked Lester.
"I'm fine with it," said Nick.
Lester replied, "Okay, cursed fruit it is."
The two were seen leaving the cluebox area.
-Overthere Stair-
Harl & Natt – on cursed fruit
Harl dropped a violet fruit to Natt.
"Alright," said Natt. "Now we have all three."
"Let's get back," said Harl. "At least I don't have to climb another tree on top of the clouds ever again."
The two went back to their cab.
Lea & Glace – on cursed fruit
Lea dropped the fuchsia fruit to Glace.
"That's three," said Glace.
"Let's go," said Lea.
The two went back to their cab.
