Bjorken Telephone

'''In Iceland, the fifteen remaining teams must traverse geysers, speak Icelandic and go through other obstacles in order to make it to the next stage. Someone ends up forcing another into doing their bidding, nearly blowing it for the both of them in the end; while another suffers due to arguing with their teammate but still survives. One group does surprisingly well in the culture, shockingly taking first place; while two others lose because of a troubled team, then sacrifice their principles only for it to be revealed they didn't have to, making one blow their top while the other blows chunks.'''

Plot
The teams must depart from Iceland's Chill Zone according to the order that they finished the last challenge. The ice dancers are the first to depart and they must take a bus to the Geyser Field and then proceed to find the Don Box to get their next clue. Unluckily for them, the ice dancers lose their lead and get stuck with five other teams on the same bus. As some of the other teams begin departing, the first bus arrives at the Geyser Field. The teams must compete in an "All In", in which they must hear Don say an Icelandic phrase, run across the Geyser Field, and repeat the phrase to a local to get their next clue.

The second bus arrives carrying six more teams as the final three teams depart from the Chill Zone. The ice dancers are the first to correctly repeat the phrase and must now take a helicopter to Skaftafell National Park to find their next clue. While father and son are unable to correctly guess the phrase, the vegans have better luck. Meanwhile, the Reality TV Pros face some problems in the geyser field after Owen gets stuck in one of the geysers. As more teams get through the Geyser Field, mom and daughter and the stepbrothers are unable to correctly guess and Taylor makes her mother go back by herself. Surprisingly, the goths are able to easily do the challenge because of most of their favourite bands being Icelandic.

Although the sisters are able to complete the first challenge, Emma is still stubborn about Kitty helping while the fashion blogger's kindness gets them onto the helicopter which is going to carry the first six teams. As the helicopter arrives at the National Park, the teams must now compete in an "Either/Or" where they must either dine on a traditional Icelandic feast or they can find and retrieve one of the Icelandic fossils embedded in the walls of an ice cave. While most of the teams decide to search for fossils, the goths decide to take on the Icelandic feast.

As things heat up for the last few teams left at the Geyser Field, the second helicopter takes off with the next seven teams. While Dwayne has trouble figuring out the phrase, the daters are able to complete the challenge, much to Stephanie's relief. As the second helicopter arrives and thirteen of the teams are on the second challenge, Junior manages to correctly guess the phrase sending father and son, albeit last, onto the second challenge. As other teams have trouble with the feast, the goths manage to finish theirs, giving them first place.

The vegans have trouble after their fossil rolls away and father and son steal it unknowingly much to their chagrin. While the vegans have to redo the challenge, Taylor decides to let Kelly take charge of the team but immediately takes back her decision. Mom and daughter recieve a penalty because both members of the team had to return to the speaker box after getting the phrase incorrect. As more teams complete the challenge, it is now down to the final three teams. While the vegans and rockers race to the finish, Taylor and Kelly's penalty ends and they manage to get thirteenth place. The rockers manage to pick up speed, sending the vegans into last. However, Don reveals that it was a non-elimination leg, meaning that they're safe but this angers Laurie, who believes she had to go against her principals because of this and proceeds to beat up Don, who signs off the show.

Cast

 * Brody and Tom appear in this episode, but do not speak.

General

 * This is the first non-elimination leg.
 * The Icelandic phrase the contestants must speak is "Vinsamlegast gefa mer mina travel abending."
 * The Icelandic feast consisted of putrefied shark, pickled herring, churred ram, broiled puffin and singed sheep head.
 * This is the first episode where Crimson and Ennui used the interview room to make a short interview.

Continuity

 * Sasquatchanakwa makes a cameo frozen in the ice cave. This is likely a nod to Total Drama: Pahkitew Island where Sasquatchanakwa was frozen in a block of ice.
 * Due to the events of the previous episode, Brody is still getting shocked constantly throughout this episode.

Goofs

 * Despite not completing the first challenge properly, Tom and Jen (who merely complimented the Icelandic local's dress and did not say the Icelandic phrase), were not penalized.
 * Before the Icelandic local hits Chet and Lorenzo, Chet's beard is gone.
 * Although Ryan knew the Icelandic phrase, he and Stephanie went back to hear it again.
