Kisha and Jennifer asked their cabbie if he knew where To Sail To Stop was.
Sure, sure, said the helpful cabbie, who unhelpfully dropped them off at the Maritime Museum.
Somehow, Zev and Justin found themselves at the same place, and the teams promptly joined forces.

(Joining forces in this case basically meant that Justin looked over Kishas shoulder as she Googled.)
Meanwhile, Team Cheerocracy was yet again celebrating the good fortune of being paired up with Margie/Luke.
Onboard the ferry, there was a nice little moment between Mel and Mike.
Papa White was feeling a bit sore.
His son said, Dad, I dont want to kill you for some joy ride.
All fathers and sons watching at home were crying.
my response would be something like, Wait, we have a town hall?
Is it located in the torch of the Statue of Liberty?
I blame our education system.
In the back of the pack, the Cowbros suffered through an extended night-falls-on-Sydney montage.
They asked people for help, and when that didnt work, they just started exploring.
It never occurred to them to find a computer, or a tour guide, or even a sailor.
And yet, at least one Racer was disappointed.
Look, Zev, were in the Outback!
Not a lot of steakhouses, deadpanned Zev.
(Fun fact: If you Google Outback,the first thing that comes upis Outback Steakhouse.
And if you Bing Outback,you get the same results, except somehow lamer.
And Ask.comstill exists!)
In Natural World, they had spit out paint onto their hands to create stenciled images.
(Well, Mallory had a simpler reason for going with Spirit World: Yeah, lets dance!)
This led Kent to say, joyfully, Get me children, Vyxsin!
Come on, kids, dance with us!
Hello, Pied Piper!
Most of the teams left in a big clump, leaving just Amanda/Kris and Ron/Christina.
At one point, Christina switched languages and begged, Use Chinese, hey.
Everyones going to understand.
(I wish I could argue with my family members in another language.
It would just make the arguments much more meaningful, I think.)
Things were looking pretty grim when Amanda and Kris wrapped up their mosaic ahead of them.
But Amanda and Kris still had to do theotherDetour, since they had a U-Turn hanging over their heads.
Apparently, lots of streets in Broken Hill are named after elements.
All the rich people live onUnunquadium Boulevard.
There have been multiple reports of arson at the intersection of Nitrogen Street and Oxygen Avenue.
On the bad side of town, all the street names are named after elements from the lanthanide series.
(Oh god, Im sorry.
I love chemistry jokes, possibly because Im awful at chemistry.)
Zev/Justin and Margie/Luke did a superhero team-up and bounced away.
But their team-up paled in comparison to the massive swell of teams who mobbed up.
(I got an A in chemistry, he explained, Glad it finally came in handy.)
Soon, there were five or six teams all together.
Phil told them they looked ridiculous, and asked to see their passports.
They hadnt lost them!
Way to go, guys!
Itll be interesting to see how they fare against the more cerebral teams.
(Although, despite his leg pains today, Mel sure seems pretty spry for 70.)
NEXT: The Daddy/Daughter Club vs.
Team U-TurnBack in Kangaroo Town, Mallory was complaining to Gary, and Ron was complaining to Christina.
The outlook was dismal.
Mallory pointed down the road and said, The other teams went that-a-way.
Ron mumbled to Christina, Why are we following her?
Shewashysterical, as always, but she was also right.
They didnt seem to be too far behind the Father/Daughter consortium.
To make the final finish-line race even more complicated, Ron/Christina decided to peel off from Gary/Mallory.
Mallory and Gary are nice people, said Christina, But they dont know where theyre going.
Ron and Christina ended up coming in tenth place.
Ron admitted, Its still difficult for me not to get too domineering.
Christina summed it up rather sweetly: Were just two very different people.
And we love each other.
Cant we believe that people can change?
Viewers,is there hope for humanity?)
And now, a moment of silence for Kris and Amanda.
History: Still awful!
MaybeThe Twilight Zonewas right.
I sure hope they dont spend the rest of their lives wincing whenever they see a No U-Turn sign.
They seem like pretty nice people.
Viewers, what did you think about this bouncy leg of the race?
Can you believe how long it took the Cowbros to get out of Sydney?
Are you as disappointed as I am that the episode didnt feature any kangaroo boxing?
Also, arent you happy to know that Jaime has a green bunny suit?
Well, now you know, and youll never un-know.
