The teams are going to China, much to Ron/Christina's delight. Kent/Vyxsin's positive attitude quickly evaporates when they have troubles with their car and then spend over an hour driving in the wrong direction due to Vyxsin's poor navigating. The rest of the teams all make the required flight, wondering where the goth couple are. The pair eventually make a different plane, but Vyxsin almost loses her passport. This is getting painful.
Ron/Christina take an early train to the shuttle, but it doesn't do them any good as the other teams catch up before the shuttle leaves. They go up the mountain where they ride mules for their next clue. The high altitude soon takes its toll, leaving contestants unable to run without becoming short of breath. The challenge is to find tags of the animals of the Chinese Zodiac and arrange them in order. Big Easy gets stuck and asks a yak for help. Mallory completes it first and inexplicably helps Luke, who was way off, despite his mom claiming he's "good at details".
The main person who struggles with the challenge is Zev, which is funny because earlier he was complaining about not getting a chance to shine. It takes him ages to find his rabbit, and then once he does collect them all he thinks he can just dump them all in the hanger and get a pass. Failed attempt after failed attempt goes by, but Justin doesn't start to panic until the stragglers Kent/Vyxsin turn up.
Ron/Christina take the wrong vehicle on their way to the next task but the driver doesn't stop. When they find the bus they were supposed to take, Christina literally jumps off and chases after it whilst Ron throws things. Luckily, Flight Time/Big Easy are feeling generous for once and let them on the bus. The next task is for the teams to find their Zodiac symbol and make a wish. Margie/Luke and Gary/Mallory finish first but Flight Time doesn't know his sign and keeps guessing wrong.
The pressure is mounting on Zev but he finally realises his mistake - he had two goats by accident. Luckily Vyxsin really sucks at the challenge and he is able to beat her, leaving the goths in last place again.
A really quick candy-making task is up next, which Margie/Luke, Gary/Mallory and Jet/Cord all complete with ease. Ron still finds a way to make it far more difficult than it needs to be, annoying Christina. Margie/Luke end up claiming first place, but are stunned when they're told they are still racing. Jet/Cord and Gary/Mallory check in next, with Ron/Christina, Kisha/Jen, the Globetrotters and the cheerleaders not far behind.
Soon, Zev/Justin and Kent/Vyxsin are the only teams that haven‘t reached the pit stop. Although Vyxsin has completed the task now, their chances of gaining ground are lost when they realise halfway down a one-way road that Kent left their fanny pack in the gondola. Of all their numerous blunders this leg, this one could finally be the nail in the coffin.
