Brent is discovering that a straitjacket isn't all that easy to get out of. But as Jaymes is just leaving the ground, Brent manages to make the breakthrough of getting his sleeves over his head. "I came right up to the edge of starting to panic," he interviews. "And I just told myself, do not go there, because I knew once I did, there'd be no turning back." Would have been great TV, though. Soon he's free of the straitjacket, and free of the scaffolding as it drops him onto the bungee while Josh cheers him from the waiting area. Jaymes is up and in position to start trying, and powerfully motivated to free himself quickly. As Brent collects his clue, Jaymes more or less just Hulks out of it and waits for the drop, saying, "I got this, I got this," and is soon dangling from the bungee cord. "Dang, he's done already," Brent says before he and Josh have even opened their clue. The Beekmans are asking around and finding out about Lombardi's, and then the Chippendales try to go back to their taxi, which is gone, so they walk into a store and ask for both a call to a cab company and a little New York pizzeria history. Lombardi's it is. Too bad about their taxi being gone. They ate up one lag and will soon be facing another.
Across town, Trey & Lexi have already arrived at Lombardi's in Little Italy. There are no diners here today; just tables full of pizza boxes, and John, the owner, waiting for them behind the counter. He greets them warmly and welcomes them to the country's first pizzeria. Funny, he doesn't look that old. There are indeed three clues under three whole pizzas on display dishes, and before opening one, Lexi wonders if they'll have to finish one. "That'd be sweet, right?" But no, they have to deliver ten pizzas to three different locations on foot. The three destinations and the order for each one is written in a blackboard over each stack of ten pizzas, which the teams will have to memorize for their deliveries "to loyal Lombardi customers scattered around Little Italy." Phil says that John the owner will hand them their next clue, which he holds up to show a little blue luggage tag with the United Nations logo on it. We'll see what that's about later, I assume.
Trey & Lexi get right to work figuring out their orders and memorizing the three addresses. They each grab a stack and head outside, at which point the arriving Beekmans spot them and get a pretty good idea of what they're going to have to do. Team Austin gets directions to Mulberry street and starts schlepping their pies in that direction, with Lexi in the lead.
