We begin the penultimate leg of the race in Indonesia, with all teams being directed to go to Shenzhen, China. Everyone is departing on the same plane once again, so there’s not any particular drama with regards to who leaves when.

On the other hand, once they arrive in China, the gamesmanship begins. Teams are first directed to go to the Departure Hall to pick up their next clue. Tyler & Korey sprint up a level and quickly grab their next instructions, with Dana & Matt following quickly behind them. The two teams agree that they won’t share the location of the clue box with either Burnie & Ashley or Sheri & Cole. They’re really primarily worried about the Rooster Teeth duo, but no matter what, they need to make sure that one of them finishes in last place.

Of course, at the currency counter, Tyler & Korey try to indicate to Burnie & Ashley that they’re keeping the clue location secret from Sheri & Cole, but Burnie holds his clue up in the air and notes how weird it is that there aren’t many left in the clue box. And thus the gamesmanship ends.

Apparently, the clue directs teams over to the Eiffel Tower for some reason, which makes us wonder if they’re still in Shenzhen or if we missed something. Tyler & Korey and Dana & Matt both are able to hop on the first bus marked as the clue indicates, where they complain about Burnie & Ashley’s cluelessness. Someone’s got to go, they say, and they don’t want it to be them.

Of course, Team Rooster Teeth isn’t nearly so nice when it comes to helping with tickets to the train to their destination. They get theirs and hop on the train, but happily leave Sheri & Cole behind to wait for the next train.

The destination is an area with miniatures of a lot of different worldwide landmarks, so Shenzhen it is, after all. The location is called Window of the World, and features 130 of these different tourist attractions. The teams have to solve a series of riddles to figure out which landmark is the answer before moving on to the next segment of the race. Since it’s a Roadblock, only one member from each team will be participating. Tyler and Dana decide to team up since none of them want to face off against Burnie & Ashley in the final three. Whatever they can do to forestall them, they will.

Sheri is last to arrive, but all four teams are working on the Roadblock now. The people competing are Tyler, Dana (jointly), Burnie and Sheri. When Sheri realizes that Tyler and Dana are teaming up, she freaks out a bit. Given that Burnie should be pretty solid at this challenge, she has legitimate reason to worry.

Although Burnie easily deduces that the Taj Majal is the location of the mausoleum with four minarets, the clue is giving everyone else fits. Tyler and Dana go to turn in their passports, and figure out that the only location they’re missing is the “minaret” area. Meanwhile, Burnie is unsure where the “reenactments” are. Basically, they find their Taj Majal answer just as Burnie is getting all of his locations stamped. He and Ashley will be out first, followed quickly by Tyler and Dana. Sheri is still struggling a bit.
