They're still at it after the ads, as Ralph tells her to stop telling him to shut up, and she agrees to stop if she does. That's some Middle East stalemate shit, right there. After the leg, Ralph says he enjoyed watching her run up the hill. "The little devil inside me was laughing because I knew her legs were on fire." Aww, how sweet.
Team Jersey gains the main entrance, and while they walk through, Danny asks, "Sleeping Beauty, didn't she hang her hair down?" Wrong fairy tale, bro. Vanessa and Ralph continue digging at each other all the way into the castle, but when she finds the clue in the (now much more crowded) bedroom, he tells her "Awesome, babe." But she isn't interested in making up, even when he asks for a truce as they leave. "Whatever, I'm done," he grumps. "I could care less at this point." "Couldn't care less," Vanessa corrects. All is forgiven, Vanessa.
Bopper and Mark are the next team to finish their gingerbread house, so after getting a clue and a hug from the witch, they're currently in seventh place. Have fun storming the castle! Brendon and Rachel are in last place and they know it. Rachel's about to start crying, again, and Brendon tells her to keep it together. "I am trying," She near-sobs like a toddler at the fabric store. "There's no crying," Brendon tells her, which is the best new rule he's ever made. Like, in his entire life. Rachel asks, "Can we please get judged?" What the hell have been doing the past two years? Oh, she's talking to the witch. Soon they have their clue, but they're still in last place.
Other Rachel and Dave show up at the castle parking lot, but somehow Dave decides that they need to go up to Hohenschwangau Castle, which is the wrong one. That's the squat, tan castle, which is also accessible from the same parking lot. They get up there and see a signboard showing that the next tour begins at 12:50. That right there should be a red flag, given how racers never have to wait for anything at these places, but they decide they're going to wait. The good news is that it's already 12:47, so at least they aren't going to be standing around waiting to get into the wrong place for more than a few minutes.
