Plot
The episode opens at the airport where the remaining six contestants are waiting to board the final plane to the next destination. To kill some time, Leonard and Tammy trying to establish alliances much to the annoyance of the other teams because of the confetti. As flight number one lands in Morocco, the first six teams compete in an "All In" challenge in which they have to make their way to Youseff's Spice Kiosk and choose five spices, ideally Cumin, Cinnamon, Paprika, Saffron and Ginger to receive their next tip. A few of the teams express excitement for the next challenge due to their knowledge of spices as flight number two takes the air and the rockers express their fear of flying for the first time. As some of the teams manage to complete the challenge with a breeze, they must now go to a restaurant in the desert on a camel.

The police women have difficulty when they try to ask Youseff for directions as the teams on the first flight sans the Reality Pros take off into the desert. The second flight arrives as the mother and daughter team have difficulty getting a cab. By this time flight number three has taken off into the air. The Reality TV Pros have a little difficulty picking spices with Owen panicking and running away. Dwayne follows this up with a sexist remark, stating that in olden times, this wouldn't have been a man's job but later corrects himself after realizing his wife would be watching.

The vegans and geniuses are able to nail the first challenge, having knowledge of spices while the pressure is starting to get to some of the other teams, mainly the father/son and Noah and Owen who decide to pick any five spices. The sisters have an argument after Emma refuses to let Kitty help in the challenge. While the adversity twins get caught up after choking on Cinnamon, the third flight finally arrives at Morocco. The vegans get really close to their camel having named it Benifint and refuse to ride it. They state that they plan on starting a campaign against riding camels when they go back home.

The police cadets are the first ones to reach the chef and in the Race's first "Botch or Watch" challenge, one of them must now eat a Moroccan stew cooked with the spices they brought and then make their way to the Chill Zone. A few of the teams face problems after father and son's camel breaks down and the vegans fall behind due to refusing to ride the camel. Carrie expresses her crush on Devin and repents after she remembers that he has a girlfriend named Shelly. The after effects of the stew starts to get to some of the contestants which includes stew cramps, puking and overheating.

The best friends manage to bag first place despite Carrie spraining her ankle as some of the other teams let the pressure get to their heads, with Emma blaming her sister for picking the wrong spices and Lorenzo making his stepbrother swallow his puke. The police cadets and ice dancers compete for second with the ice dancers running into a tree as the police cadets bag second place while Josee throws a temper tantrum over getting third. More teams begin arriving at the Chill Zone with Emma getting annoyed over the sisters getting in the lower half of the placements. The vegans, LARPers and father and son are the last teams left to drink the stew. With a little motivation from Junior, Dwayne gulps down the spice very quickly which leads to temporary blindness.

As the last three teams race to the Chill Zone, the LARPers try to use their so-called magical instruments to sabotage the other teams but they're unsuccessful which makes them lose their lead. The vegans and father and son express their relief over not getting eliminated while the LARPers are the last to arrive at the Chill Zone and get eliminated. The LARPers look at the positive side of their elimination, saying that although they could've done better, they got to try a lot of things they hadn't done before with Leonard adding that he wishes they didn't have to walk back home.
