OLIVIA: Who are you thinking of voting for?
KEVIN: Not you guys.
JON: The U-Turn vote spiraled teams into a tizzy.
KEVIN: Let's just go for a weaker team.
NICOLE: A weaker team? KEVIN: The wrestlers?
JON: Allowing best buds, Colin and Matt,
to win the leg and score the double vote.
COLIN: Just put them both in Kevin and Gurleen.
MICHAEL: Kevin and Gurleen are gamers,
and they switched it up on everyone.
OLIVIA: They're not sticking to their alliances. Shady.
JOHN: I love a little bit of drama.
JON: Now, 9 teams are flying to Penticton, BC.
TAYLOR: Penticton!
JON: As they race to win...
The first ever 2024 Chevrolet Equinox EV RS...
A trip for two around the world from Expedia...
A quarter of a million dollars cash....
And, The Amazing Race Canada.

JON: All teams are now traveling on the same flight
from Vancouver to the city of Penticton, BC.
Today, 9 teams race through the vast Okanagan Valley
on the traditional unceded territory of the
Syilx Okanagan Nation as they continue
the adventure of a lifetime.
Once they land, they'll load into a 2024
Chevrolet Silverado 2500 ZR2 Bison,
and drive to the southern shores of Lake Okanagan to
find the SS Sicamous for the results of the U-Turn vote.
TYSON: I can't help it.
I feel a couple more beats in the heart.
JULIA: This has enormous stakes on the line.
KEVIN: Let's go, baby, let's go to the vote.
My intuition is telling me that something's wrong.
I've never been the villain, so-
KEVIN: Welcome. Ha! Welcome to the club.
GURLEEN: None of the teams like us.
NICOLE: It's looking like I think Kevin and Gurleen...
may be U-Turned.
I mean, I don't want to speak too soon.
NICOLE: Matt and Colin told us Kevin and Gurleen
were pushing for everybody to vote for us.
GURLEEN: Most people want to do the twins,
we'll do the twins. COLIN: I'm okay with that.
COLIN: Kevin and Gurleen said your guys' name.
LAUREN: Did they?
Kevin and Gurleen said our name.
So, I don't trust them. Honestly, I'm voting for them.
To even have our names come out of your mouth
when we're supposed to be like your alliance,
you can't trust someone after that.
When you mess with Double Trouble,
Double Trouble messes with you back.
NICOLE: But double, so worse.
I don't know if I'm excited or terrified.

-Colin and Matt... -[Laughing]
COLIN: Don't like where this is going.
JON: Because you arrived at the U-Turn vote first...
COLIN: What's up?
JON: Expedia believes that we were all made to travel,
so they're sending you on a dream adventure for two...
to Madagascar.
[Cheering]
No way! [Laughing]
JON: That's not all. Expedia is giving you
$10,000 to make this a trip that you will never forget!
[Cheering & laughing]
JON: Tell us, why is Madagascar
on your bucket list of adventures?
COLIN: It's just one of those places that
you dream of going to see.
For the last four years, I've been a teacher
up north in Aklavik, Northwest Territories.
Matt is back in Newfoundland.
We have a literal entire country that separates us

We obviously meant it.
GURLEEN: You didn't vote for us?
-No, we did not. -We did not vote for you.
KEVIN: I know some teams are gonna vote for us.
Guys, if you save us, like we have your back.

Fire out of my ears, like seeing red.
But all we need to do is just beat
one other team to that mat.
GURLEEN: We decide for our game it's best to
U-Turn Julia and Olivia.
KEVIN: Two reasons.
We've seen them do challenges.
They're not sharp at these things.
And number two, they're probably not gonna get
that Express Pass from Mike and Tyson.

JON: Teams must now drive over 45 kilometres south
to the town of Oliver...
and locate Area 27 Motorsports,
a state-of-the-art motor racing facility,
home to a one-of-a-kind off-road course.
In this Road Block, racers will ditch the pavement,
kick up some dust, and show off their off-road skills.
Woo-hoo-hoo!
One racer will get behind the wheel of a 2024
Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Bison,

1.5-inch suspension lift,
and 35-inch mud terrain tires
to conquer a challenging series of
three off-road obstacles courses...
SFX: [Bell ringing]

Once they've completed all three courses,
Case, the chief instructor,
will give them their next clue.
JOHN: Perfect. CONNOR: That's me, let's go.
JOHN: Drama time. MICHAEL: What a leg.
JULIA: If Kevin and Gurleen's strategy was that they think
that they can beat us, and it's gonna be an easy time,
they have another thing coming today.
Taylor and I are a bit relieved knowing it wasn't us.
I think everybody was on edge
expecting it could have been them.
NICOLE: If we can somehow get in the challenges and
get out really quick, like, I think it would have been
to their detriment if they chose us to go against them.
I do think it was smart.
KEVIN: We hate some other teams more,
but this was the strategic decision.
JOHN: If they had any brain cells at all,
they would have U-Turned us.
CONNOR: Ha, I agree.
TYSON: We have two Express Passes here,
we have to give one away by the end of this leg.
