Trey Aces Tennis Challenge

Last week, teams went through Amsterdam. Natalie and Nadiya fast forwarded to win the leg. Abbie and Ryan were eliminated, leaving four teams to go to Spain, where they meet flame-bearing devils, hit tennis balls on a clay court in Nadal’s hometown, bullfight matadors, or screw blades to a windmill. Trexi finishes first, followed by Chippendales, the Goat Farmers and the twins. It is a non-elimination race, but Nadiya and Natalie will face a speed bump sometime in the race.

The race starts from Amsterdam, in a house rumored to be Rembrandt mistress’. Natalie and Nadiya, whose initial goal was not to be kicked out of the show, depart first for Barcelona, Spain. James and Jaymes, who depart second, still feel bad about U-turning Ryan and Abbie. Trexi departs third.

After the twins arrive in Barcelona at 9 am, Josh and Brent leave Amsterdam for Barcelona. Josh’s foot is still swollen from an injury from last week. Brent had tells him to do Lamaze; Josh tells him that he’s not pregnant. Brent breathes on Josh’s foot, which does not help.

The first three teams meet in Barcelona. Because they have 12 hours to kill before their boat leaves for Mallorca, they hit the beach. Then they meet Josh and Brent, who are more optimistic when they see the other teams.

At Palma de Mallorca, teams meet people dressed as devils swinging flames–and carrying clues. Trey and Lexi are now in first place. Trey drives a car and leads Chippendales. While it took the other teams a while to figure out where the clue was, Josh and Brent seemed to quickly  realize that the devils had it.

Josh’s ankle was feeling better until he tried to play tennis. When Josh rests, Natalie and Nadiya arrive.  Josh worries that Natalie and Nadiya will sail past them, but he outplays Tweenie. The twins talk about how they used to escape their tennis lessons in Sri Lanka.

Trexi and Chippendales go through thousands-year-old caves together. They go to two guitarists, who have the detour clue: Spin It or Bull It.

In Spin It, teams need to screw on two blades to a windmill. Once completed, Don Quixote will hand them the next clue. In Bull It, teams need to act like bulls attacking matadors.

Josh irritates Brent with his backseat-driving. Trey thinks that the Chippendales went the wrong way to the windmills. James and Jaymes u-turn to the windmills and put on hard hats. James says that he used to take apart radios when he was a kid.

Trey directs Lexi under the bull costume to run through the mock matadors. When they crash into a matador, Lexi cries when she hurts her finger, which is bloody and throbbing. They switch places, which works better.

Like the Chippendales, Josh and Brent opt for Spin It. When James and Jaymes finish the windmill, they are in first place.

The twins arrive at Coves last, and opt for Spin It, where they see Josh and Brent, who have a wind turbine in the farm, although not as nice. Josh and Brent finish the windmill challenge first, leaving the twins behind. At fourth place, they tell themselves that they only have themselves to blame.

The Pit Stop is Palma. Lexi, whose finger still hurts, directs Trey. They are Team Number One, and win a five-day trip to Riviera Maya, where they can enjoy the infinity pool and massage. The Chippendales place second. James talks about how the million dollars can change their families’ lives. At third place, Josh says that it’s hard to kill their team. Phil Keoghan tells the twins that it is a non-elimination race, and that they will encounter a speed bump.
