Max & Katie -- having gotten their directions -- are sprinting back to their car as Max says, "Just be smart and stay under control, because that's why we won the last two legs." And also by other teams screwing up, which is also the case today. Abundantly so, in fact.

Back at the dry dock dining tent, Bates is once again laying out dessert plates, saying, "Please be right." His headwaiter finally wishes the diners, "Bon appetit," and Bates thanks God before the man's even finished saying it. The whole tent applauds as Bates collects his clue from the captain. "Big tip, right? Big tip?" he says as he leaves empty-handed, other than the tray and the clue.

From above, Mona watches Bates emerge from the tent, having finished the task. Which she says puts her and Beth in either third or last place; "We have no idea where the girls are." Bates rudely grabs the Pit Stop clue from Anthony and reads it his own damn self. He's still letting Anthony drive, though. "Let's go. Top three. No mistakes now," he says from the back seat. Max & Katie are just now parking and wandering around the hall, but Anthony appears to drive almost right to it. The brothers spot Max & Katie on the sidewalk, and Bates says they can catch them if they hurry. As Anthony backs into a parking spot, Max & Katie spot them right back and break into a sprint. Now it's a race around the block!

Inside the theatre, the Riverdancers are thunderously beating their shoes against the hardwood floor until Max & Katie run in and onto the mat. Whereupon they stop dancing and rush at them in a rather unnerving clump to brogue in unison, "Welcome to Belfast, Northern Ireland!" Max is still thanking them when Bates & Anthony burst in through the door behind them. Phil says, "Max & Katie, Bates & Anthony, I'm pleased to tell you that you are team number one and two, and that means that you are two of the teams that will be racing to the Finish Line for one million dollars." High fives and hugs all around, and Phil adds that Max & Katie have won a trip to the Dominican Republic. Max says that they've won the last three legs, so now they just have to win the race. He interviews that Bates & Anthony have a lot of athletic ability, "But we're not gonna be intimidated by a couple of professional athletes. You know, those guys are gettin' ooold." On the mat, he shares a recurring dream where he runs around a corner knowing that they're first. Bates says he has the same dream, but in his version he runs in front of them. One of them is going to end up disappointed.
