One new contestant allies with a staff member, but in the end, they are voted off along with another.'''

Recap
Duncan greets Courtney in first class and tries to mend the fences between them. He doesn't mind her not talking to him, except that he could use the extra ally now that Owen is gone. Courtney, in response to Duncan's peace offering, shoves him head-first into the wedding cake. Over the plane's PA system, Blaineley tries to form an alliance with someone, and remembering Chef helping DJ last season, suggests a TV deal if he helps her. Cody mopes about the fact that Sierra thinks the two of them are married now due to what happened last episode. Alejandro sides with Sierra, but Heather tries to help Cody out, by telling him that being forthright with Sierra will get her to back off for good.

The contestants are lined up in front of the Great Wall of China. Chris gets as far as saying the contestants must race along the wall before he is interrupted by a call. The contestants race off after they misinterpret a signal, missing out on vital information. Each contestant grabs a different mode of transportation to help them on their journey: Blaineley sits in the rickshaw, Duncan rides the bicycle, Alejandro uses the skateboard, Courtney pedals the tricycle, Cody mounts the donkey with the aid of pogo-sticking Sierra, and Heather is stuck with the traditional Chinese wooden sandals. Duncan and Alejandro race neck and neck down the wall, until Duncan hits a boobytrap mine. Cody finds his donkey stubbornly not moving, while Sierra hops behind and around him. He tries to "break up" with her, but she focuses on the fact that he said he liked her. Sighing, he spurs on the donkey, who kicks Sierra off the Great Wall of China and into a Chinese tea store. There, she is given a bag of Love-Me tea; the more of it she drinks, the more Cody will love her.

Courtney gets stuck in a crack of the wall, and Alejandro suggests to Duncan that they stop to help her. Duncan thinks it'd be fun to watch her struggle for a while, but Alejandro is thinking she might help him in turn. Once she is free, she does offer to return the favor later. The three of them race off for the finish line, but Courtney hits another boobytrap and goes flying. Alejandro and Duncan cross the finish line at almost the same time, only to learn there is no prize for first place. Cody and Heather finish shortly afterwards, and Blaineley "somehow" got to the finish line. Chris is about to ring the gong, signaling the race is over, when Sierra just makes it across the finish line. This means that Courtney does not get to compete in the next half of the challenge.

In the Chinese restaurant, the contestants learn they will be served local dishes - the grossest Chris can find. Alejandro, having a weak stomach, turns to already-eliminated Courtney for help in the challenge. Blaineley, being allied with Chef, is served slightly different food than the other contestants. One by one, the other contestants are eliminated until just Blaineley, Alejandro and Sierra are left. At this point, Heather raises a protest that both Blaineley and Alejandro are cheating, Blaineley has been served normal food, while Alejandro gave the food to Courtney. To mollify her, Chris has Sierra and Blaineley switch bowls of food and makes Courtney wear a large mask so she can't eat Alejandro's food. Both cheaters can't stomach the thought of eating the gross dish and vomit, while Sierra finishes her bowl, wining invincibility and the opportunity to take Cody with her to first class.

The result of the votes are in, and they are split evenly between Courtney and Blaineley (with Cody voting for Sierra despite her immunity). Courtney is confident she can take Blaineley in a tie-breaker, but since he'd been getting calls from the producers, hounding him about the budget, he just gets rid of both the contestants instead. Courtney once again promises to sue the show, adding a law suit against Duncan for defamation. Blaineley, meanwhile, spills information about all the remaining contestants: Ezekiel is still hiding on the plane, Cody votes for Sierra every time, Heather and Alejandro have an obvious crush on each other, and that she was first pick over Chris to host the show. She might have said more, but Chris pushes both contestants off the plane at this point.

Up in first class, Sierra splashes the tea over herself, which makes Cody light-headed. Sierra diagnoses it as an allergic reaction and jabs him with an epipen she just happened to have on her. Up in the cockpit, Chris discusses with Chef the serious ramifications of Blaineley's actions. Though it was not her alliance with Chef, but that Chris was second-pick. With this thought weighing on his mind, he signs off the episode, to Chef's approval.
