Coming from the final break, the ax misses Dwayne Senior by mere inches. Everyone is surprised, though not as much as Kelly and Taylor, with some even dropping their jaws.
"Wow!" Macarthur said.
"Talk about cutting close," Emma said.
"Ha!" Dwayne Senior said. "Told ya I know ice."
"Sure you do," Dwayne Junior said.
*Interview break* Taylor: If you had a face as chipotle as mine, would you want to hit it with an ice pick? No; we'll eat the feast.
"Reminds me about lessons with knives," Geoff said.
"Indeed," Ellody said. "Always be careful with knives."
The crazy feast is being chowed down by some of the teams. Two of which are the goths and surfer dudes.
Geoff: It feels weird to feed Brody like he's a little niblet, but it's a team challenge, and the guy is a human trash can. He'll eat anything.
"That's true," Brody said. "Whatever it takes to save my teammates."
Geoff then tries to pat Brody, only for him to get shocked.
"That better wear off within the next few episodes," Stephanie said.
"You're telling me," Brody said. "I'm so bugged by it."
"Really?" Erin asked.
"Yeah," Brody answered. "I think I might be getting a fear of electric boat engines, now."
To everyone's surprise, the goths finish the feast first, and become the winners. Don then tells them to walk off after asking if they're trying to ruin the show.
"Unbelievable!" Laurie said.
"That was shocking to all of us," Sanders said.
"Like I said," Jen said. "Surprises everywhere."
*Interview break* Crimson: As soon as I saw the platter, I knew we were going to come in first.
Ennui: I'm so excited. First place. Wow; I could pee myself.
The interview break ends with Crimson saying that's exactly what he did. More laughter roared out.
"Oh my god," Brody said.
"It was all the excitement rushing through," Ennui said in his defense.
"I'm sure it was," Kitty said.
Nobody wants to come in last, so the daters got right to it.
"That right there reminds me of spaghetti," Erin said.
"It did," Stephanie said. "So you know what that meant."
The daters ate from opposite ends, which led to a spaghetti themed kiss.
"Just like from Lady and the Tramp," Macarthur said.
"That's a classic," Noah said. "My younger cousins love that movie."
"At least your aunt didn't block that in your house," Owen said.
While the feast is almost complete by a few teams, the bloggers arrive, and Don confirms they're in second place.
"Yes!" Jen said.
"This race is radical!" Tom said.
3rd place: Ice dancers.
4th place: Owen and Noah, and thankfully, it was before they barfed up.
"Now you find a food that's gross?" Geoff asked.
"No one told me eyeballs were edible," Owen answered.
"It's okay, Owen," Noah said.
"Yeah," Ryan said. "None of us knew."
Back in the caves, the vegans take a break, but their fossil slips away in the process.
"Oh boy," Laurie said. "How did we miss that?"
Geoff and Brody get 5th place, and the daters get 6th place and make out because of it, which Don finds a little unwelcomed.
"Totally worth it!" Ryan said.
"No kidding," Stephanie said.
"Meanwhile," Emma started. "Great job making up for lost time."
"Thanks," Brody said. "Still worried about the electric shock thing."
"Yeah," Geoff said. "We were starting to worry about it never wearing off."
Kelly and Taylor finished 7th, but received a penalty for splitting up.
Carrie and Devin take 7th place. The vegans and Dwayne Duo arrive with the vegan's fossil.
"So that's what happened," Laurie said.
"Let me guess," Dwayne Junior said. "We're getting a penalty, aren't we?"
"You should have," Miles said. "We were that close to staying in the game."
"What's the next move?" Laurie asked.
Don: No sharesies. You'll have to try again.
He then walked off without a care in the world.
Laurie: The goddess of karma will get you for this!
"Woah!" Macarthur said. "How many people did the ice dancers cause to have a bad temper?"
"I don't know," Miles said. "But that sure was scary."
"Nice going, dad," Dwayne Junior said.
*Interview break* Laurie: I don't normally allow myself to experience negative emotions, but I'm sure my aura is very purple right now.
Dwayne Senior: Not the first time I've been cursed. Luckily, I don't believe in goddesses or karma, so I think we're all good. *End interview break*
"Were you?" Ryan asked.
"Still hope karma does strike hard for you," Laurie said.
"Some already came when he cussed at that local," Dwayne Junior mentioned.
"How was I supposed to know it was a swear word?" Dwayne Senior asked.
With time running out, Laurie suggests they go eat the feast, which freaks Miles out.
"Are you out of your mind?" Stephanie asked in shock. "Some out there are vegans for a reason."
"I'm with Stephanie on this one," Miles said.
The stepbrothers get ninth place, while the sisters get tenth.
"Radical!" Kitty said.
While Kelly and Taylor wait for their penalty to end, Laurie is eating the feast, which upsets Miles.
"Should I feel bad for you and Laurie?" Owen asked Miles.
"One can say yes," Miles answered.
While the vegans and rockers get close to finishing the feast, the cadets arrive and get 11th place.
"Kind of a letdown from the previous leg," Macarthur said.
"You weren't kidding about fragile fossils," Sanders said.
"One can see why," Mary said.
*Interview break* Rock: Eating that stuff was like the hardest thing ever, other than like math or getting my driver's license.
Laurie: I can't believe I just did that. There are animals inside me right now, and I'm pretty sure they don't want us to come in last.
Miles: Mine want out right now.
The interview break ends with Miles burping, then falling over.
"Must be rough," Mary said.
"Now we know how that Bridgette girl feels about eating meat," Laurie said.
"I get it," Noah said. "First time out is always hard."
"No kidding," Stephanie said. "Just look at how much adversity the twins pushed through so far."
For the twins, the pushing continues as they once more arrive in 12th place, but state that they theorize not surviving much longer during an interview break.
"Some out there would kill to stay in the running," Ryan said.
"Yeah!" Geoff said. "Don't you two quit now!"
The last 2 teams quickly approach the chill zone.
"This is our chance!" Laurie said.
With the penalty over, Kelly and Taylor get 13th place, leaving the rockers in 14th and the vegans in last place.
"So much for that," Laurie said. "You just had to take our fossil."
"Sorry," Dwayne Senior said. "But it was Don who said no sharesies."
However, it's a non elimination round, which makes Miles sigh in relief.
"That's good," she said. "Hold up. You mean all that was for nothing?"
While Laurie beats Don up for that, Miles goes puke near Spud. The episode then signs off.
"Woah!" Stephanie said. "I can't believe you beat Don up."
"I had to let my anger out in some way possible," Laurie answered.
"Why didn't you let the rest of your anger out on my dad?" Dwayne Junior asked.
"Hey!" Dwayne Senior said. "Maybe you're right."
"Now I see why many out there feel bad for the two of you," Owen said.
"Now I feel bad for what you had to put up with," Geoff said.
"Me too," Sanders said.
"If there's anything I can do to make it up to you," Dwayne Senior said. "I swear, I'll do it."
Miles suggested that he go get everyone some fruit salads.
"On it," Dwayne Senior said.
He went to do just that. Up next is Brazilian Pain Forest.
