Plot

Taxiiiiii

Emma ensures no one takes the taxi.

The teams must now fly to India and take a cab to the mountains of Darjeeling. During the flight, Devin ponders over whether he should reveal his feelings for Carrie, but ends up chickening out. MacArthur is still affected by her actions in the previous episode, and as a result promises she will follow Sanders's orders. Upon arriving at the airport, the teams immediately succumb to the effects of the intense humidity. For the challenge, teams must go into some tea fields and fill a basket with tea leaves, and their haul must be approved by a local to received their next Travel Tip. Stephanie is unable to comprehend the heat but with some motivation from Ryan, she carries on with the challenge and refuses to ask him for help.

Sanders refuses to sabotage the Sisters.

The Ice Dancers approach and suggest the Police Cadets join them in sabotaging the Sisters. However, Sanders refuses, believing that it'll result in a penalty. Josee warns the Cadets that they would be the next team eliminated but Sanders still refuses. The Ice Dancers manage to sabotage the Sisters by opening the hatches of their baskets while diverting their attention to an alliance offer, which they also refuse. For the next challenge, the teams must now ride on a train and try to fight their way into the front car before reaching the Chill Zone. As the other teams make their way onto the train, the Daters are still stuck trying to get tea leaves after Stephanie's are blown away by the wind, but Ryan refuses to let this affect them and harvests an entire bush of the leaves, sending the Daters onto the next challenge. Meanwhile, on the train, the Ice Dancers make an attempt to sabotage the other teams by disconnecting the car at the front from the rest of the train. Elsewhere, Devin tries, once again, to express to Carrie how he feels about her. Before he is able to muster up the courage to do so, he is hit by a goat.

Emma reveals to Devin that Carrie is in love with him.

While checking on her injured partner, Carrie hears the Sisters walking on the roof of the railroad car and asks to join them. Emma agrees, as she reveals that she considers the Best Friends to be the only other sane pair left in the competition. She quickly changes her mind, however, as Carrie bursts into tears because of how distant Devin has been around her. Just as the Sisters and Best Friends are about to catch up, Jacques pulls a lever that separates the train car the two teams are on from the rest of the train. Kitty suggests the four jump across the distance. The Sisters and Carrie make the landing while Devin's mistimed jump leaves him injured yet again. Emma justifies jumping to her sister by saying that they had to do it to stay in the competition, which prompts Kitty to tease her for enjoying it. The Police Cadets progress to the unhitched train car and find themselves stuck at the end of it. MacArthur sees Devin near the separation and assumes that he tried to sabotage her and Sanders. She tells the Best Friends that they now have a new enemy in the Cadets, which causes Carrie to run off crying. After finding the door to the train carriage locked, Devin joins the Sisters on the roof of the car. He asks them about Carrie, to which they rudely respond. Devin is taken aback by their comments and in his frustration, he admits to them that he is in love with her. Kitty slaps him repeatedly after this revelation, and Emma informs him that Carrie has had feelings for him all along.

The Daters walk away from the competition with reignited feelings for each other.

Upon hearing this news, Devin is overjoyed. He determinedly makes his way over to Carrie but is stopped, this time by soot that flows towards the two of them from the train chimney. In the other passenger car, the Daters come to the realization that they have pitted themselves against each other when it is their mutual love for winning against other teams that brought them together in the first place. They kiss, affirming that they have, surprisingly, gotten back together. Elsewhere on the train tracks, the Cadets, now on foot, spot the bull that MacArthur wrestled in one of the train cars earlier. Sanders suggests that they ride it and tries to come up with a way to mount it. MacArthur orders the bull into submission before her partner can finish sharing her plan. One of the wheels of the moving part of the train hits a rock, which sends Devin flying off the vehicle. Meanwhile, the Daters notice that their train has stopped moving and make a run for it. The Ice Dancers are the first to arrive at the Chill Zone but Don gives them a one-hour penalty for messing with the train. Josee tells the host that she is confident that the other teams will not reach in time. The Sisters step onto the mat before she can finish her statement, much to her shock. Other teams reach the finish point of the leg and it comes down to the Ice Dancers and the Daters. Just as the Daters are about to make it, they stop to correct Don (who refers to them as the 'Haters' in his commentary) and share a moment as they tell him that they have gotten back together. The penalty timer runs out in the meantime and the Ice Dancers step onto the mat, resulting in the Daters being eliminated. The Daters believe that the race helped strengthen their relationship, due to the many trials and hardships they faced together over the course of the competition.
