Coming back from the final commercial break, more teams began rowing off to the chill zone. Some of the teams forgot paddles, but it's no problem for the ice dancers, who Macarthur sees using their feet as paddles.

"Really?" Dwayne Junior asked.

"And everyone thought I was the most surprised," Macarthur said.

"The goths didn't have any paddles either," Dwayne Junior realized.

"We thought there wasn't enough for all of us," Ennui commented.

"And what if there were," Brody replied.

*Interview break* Jacques: Missing paddles? That won't stop us.

Josee: We've competed in far more dire situations. Jacques got rabies from a squirrel, but that didn't stop us.

Jacques: I skated dressed as a Saint Bernard, so that all the foam coming from my mouth made sense.

"Those two were well prepared for this kind of problem," Ellody said.

"I agree," Geoff said. "If they can overcome adversity, Jay and Mickey can too."

"I love that positive energy of yours, bro," Brody said.

Josee: Adapting. It's what champions do.

The ice dancers swoosh ahead of the police cadets before cutting to some of the other teams.

Don: Most of the teams have reached the water, but for those still in the catacombs, the big challenge is to not come in last.

"This has been one of our scariest struggles, yet," Miles said.

*Interview break* Pete: We've made a terrible mistake.

Gerry: I thought vegans would be able to sniff out dairy in a second.

Pete: Go home now, and we'll be lucky to land a deal with tube socks, and I hate tube socks.

Gerry: Well, there goes the tube socks sponsorship.

They both laughed.

"I actually like those," Jen said.

"I remember wearing them a few times," Brody said.

"I've always wanted to check them out," Dwayne Junior said. "Now I see why dad says I can't."

"And you still can't," Dwayne Senior said.

Noah and Owen finally reach the cheese wheels with the tip nearby.

Noah: Okay, I'll grab the oars. You take the wheel and…

It then zooms out to Owen eating the cheese.

"Really?" Macarthur asked.

"I thought cheese was good for the body," Owen said.

"You couldn't wait until after you crossed the chill zone before eating the cheese?" Mary asked.

"Not my best idea," Owen answered.

"You think?" Everyone else commented.

The ice dancers and police cadets arrive at the Louvre, where it becomes neck and neck.

"This oughta be good," Crimson said.

"That's where this rivalry we had with them started," Macarthur said.

"One can see why," Erin said. "And I thought Sugar from Pahkitew Island was enough of a menace if you know what I mean."

The chill zone is finally shown.

Don: Lady cadets, you're in first place, and the ice dancers have to settle for silver.

The ice dancers arrive only for Macarthur to make fun of them not coming in first.

Macarthur: What? Don't hear victory music? Probably because you didn't win.

"Look at Sanders smiling," Carrie chuckled.

"Because we won," Sanders said.

"Yeah, we did," Macarthur said before shaking her butt around.

Everyone laughed again with Brody falling to the floor this time.

"What a crackup this episode has become," Brody commented.

"I know," Kitty replied.

More teams are off to the Louvre, with the daters about to shift into overdrive.

Ryan: Pass me an ore. I'll double time it.

Unfortunately, it didn't work.

"Not one of your best ideas," Sanders said.

"Okay," Ryan said. "I'm taking the blame for that, but only because I lost the first ore."

*Interview break* Ryan: I'm sorry I let you down, babe.

Stephanie: It's alright sugar bumps. Just don't let it happen EVER again.

"And did it?" Emma asked.

"Never," Ryan answered.

Meanwhile, Tom and Jen are about to head off with the raft, while trying to balance their shopping bags. Jen decides to swim off, which Tom mentions is a big sacrifice during an interview break.

"Dude!" Brody said. "With one million dollars, you can buy tons of clothing."

"A whole luxury home worth," Kitty said.

"That is true," Jen said.

More teams have reached the chill zone.

3rd place: Surfer dudes.

4th place: Best friends.

5th place: Father and son.

6th place: Stepbrothers.

"Radical!" Dwayne Senior said. "I knew we could pull ourselves together."

"We sure did," Dwayne Junior said before hugging his dad.

"You guys did great too."

"Thanks," Carrie said.

"Radical indeed!" Geoff said.

We then cut to the vegans and tennis rivals, who start paddling off.

*Interview break* Pete: The thing is your age is all in your mind.

Gerry: And in your joints.

Pete: And it has a little bit to do with the year you were born. *Laughs*

"Okay," Geoff said. "These two and their dad jokes."

"I know," Emma said. "Such a card."

Don: And here come some more teams.

7th place: Fashion bloggers.

8th place: Daters.

9th place: Geniuses.

10th place: Sisters.

Don: And if it isn't Noah and his ark. 20 minute penalty.

"You just had to eat the cheese too soon, Owen," Noah said.

"How was I supposed to know penalties would be this uncool?" Owen commented. "Chris McLean thought it was okay."

"True," Geoff said. "But this is a different show with a different host, and a lot of different rules."

"Figures," Owen said. "But why did he call me his ark?"

"Beats me," Laurie said.

"But who cares?" Miles jumped in. "Here's our chance to avoid elimination!"

Don: With one team waiting for their penalty to end, the last four teams are battling towards the carpet of completion.

*Interview break* Laurie: The thought of coming in last made us realize that we need to step up our game.

Miles: Yeah. We were super charged up.

"And I bet you stayed super charged during the next leg too," Owen said.

The vegans are able to pass the tennis rivals, who question how that's possible. During another interview break, it's shown that they're eating bird seeds. Everyone laughed again. Kelly and Taylor managed to get 11th place.

12th place: Adversity twins.

13th place: Goths.

Owen and Noah's penalty still hangs for a little over 5 minutes. That gave 14th place to the vegans and 15th place to the rockers.

"Yes!" Miles said.

"Thanks, Owen."

"Yeah," Laurie said. "You and Noah saved our skins there."

"No problem," Noah said.

"Still feel bad it was because of the penalty," Owen said.

"You didn't know harsh consequences would rise," Brody said.

"At least they're not as harsh as on Total Drama," Erin said.

"No kidding," Dwayne Junior said.

The tennis rivals are seen struggling to get the cheese up the stairs, which gives Noah and Owen more breathing room. The tennis rivals are then shown to be moving slow. Even a snail is moving faster than them, which makes everyone laugh once more.

Pete: It was looking pretty grim.

Gerry: I needed a nap.

Pete: How do you sleep eight hours a day?

Gerry: And at least ten at night. *Laughs*

The penalty ends just as the tennis rivals arrive, and for a few seconds it seems to be a tie. Unfortunately, Don points out that Gerry's foot was out of acceptable range. It ultimately led to the tennis rivals being eliminated, meaning Owen and Noah are still in the race.

"Yes!" Owen said. "Still in the race!"

"Talk about cutting close," Noah said.

The tennis rivals thought that despite the disaster of a finish, it meant a new chance of finding sponsors. It then cuts to them floating away.

"I don't think I ever laughed that hard," Stephanie said.

"Me neither," Geoff said. "And I thought what Sierra said about Chris McLean was enough of a laugh."

"Me too," Owen said. "Still feel bad about the penalty."

"Be glad you learned your lesson," Macarthur said.

"And you guys are still in the race," Sanders added.

"That is true," Noah said. "That, in the end, makes me very happy."
