Funicular! I love funicular! It's like a particular kind of fun. Or, in case you've never seen other Amazing Race episodes which feature a funicular, it's more or less a tram that goes uphill on a steep track or chain instead of an overhead cable. It's funicular! Bill and Mark reach the station first, but end up sharing their funicular ride with Terence and Sarah. Which makes it just an ickular.
Meanwhile, Ken and Tina seem to have found a groove, and are making progress without having to stop all the time. "You're not moving very fast," she comments. Instead of arguing, Ken cuts to an interview in which he says, "I cheated on Tina. I've got to prove to her on a daily basis that I'm worthy of her love." Read: he left his balls at home in Tampa, in the safety deposit box where Tina put them the day she found out.
Aja and Ty get going with their cart as Terence/Sarah and Mark/Bill offload theirs from the funicular. The former team has stolen the lead, and is the first to locate Indio. After doing a quick inventory of their cart to make sure they delivered everything, Indio reaches into a cunning little compartment in his own cart for a clue to hand over to Terence and Sarah, currently in first place. The clue sends them to the world-famous Salvador landmark known as "Military Base," which they will travel to by taxi. Phil elaborates, "They'll spend the night outdoors, under mosquito nets." But first, they'll sign in to get a departure time for the following morning: 9:00, 9:30, and 9:45. And they're off, as Terence shows that he can make even a fist bump more annoying than it has to be.
