The teams are travelling to Varanasi, the religious part of India, and the Cowboys are the only ones not on the first flight, leaving them an hour behind the other teams. Considering their strategy is to minimize mistakes, they seem to have made quite a few.
The Globetrotters' taxi is overtaking people left and right, but Kent/Vyxsin get to the roadblock first. The task is to find six holy men and put together the pieces of paper they get from them to make a phrase. Jen helps Big Easy find the first one. Kent has also decided to follow Gary around for help. Jen is the first one to finish the task and Big Easy, who is now working with Justin, are the next ones done.
Jet/Cord finally arrive at the task and get going, making the last three teams a little nervous. Gary and Kent find the last one, causing Kent to bolt as soon as he gets it. So much for teamwork! Ron is hopelessly lost and only has one, meaning Cord is able to overtake him very quickly.
Kisha/Jen choose the detour that involves drying out cow dung on a wall. Perhaps it was a bad choice as it soon makes them feel sick and they end up fighting over the correct sizes. Gary/Mallory witness a cremation on their way to the detour, which is a very poignant moment. The Globetrotters and Zev/Justin have chosen the easier detour, which is moving hay, and are currently in first and second.
Kisha/Jen finish the task, but now it's time for Gary/Mallory and Kent/Vyxsin to do the dirty work. Kent/Vyxsin manage to narrowly beat them. They won't catch the Globetrotters or Zev/Justin though, who have already checked in to the pit stop. The Globetrotters in particular are very happy with themselves to have gone from worst to first.
Kent/Vyxsin decide to take a water taxi to the pit stop, but start to get nervous it's a mistake. Vyxsin dives in the water, causing Kent to yell at her. Kisha/Jen check into the pit stop in third place, with Gary/Mallory behind them in 4th. The Cowboys do the hay challenge (duh) and get 5th, an impressive save from what looked like was going to be a tough leg.
Kent/Vyxsin are now on a rampage to find a real taxi, even kicking out some poor customer. Ron/Christina have taken the water route, but don't manage to make up enough time and Kent/Vyxsin beat them to 6th place. Ron/Christina are eliminated, but Christina is thankful for the opportunity to make new memories with her dad.
