After the break, we get to see it again, and Brent interviews, "It was like my heart hitting the floor." He decides they're looking for grapes now. "Calm down, we did our best," Caite tells him as they head out into the vineyard in the fading light. Oh, man, this isn't something you want to be doing after sunset.

Jordan and Jeff arrive outside and are thrilled to see one other car still there. "It's a race to the finish!" Jeff declares. It's a race for last, is what it is. I don't believe the Think Tank alliance is much longer for this race. They take a look through the gates at Terra, but seeing another team out there, Jeff thinks they should try the other task, on some kind of shaky, half-thought-out, Big Brother logic. They start building the glass pyramid, even though. Jordan's never seen one before.

Dan and he-Jordan reach the mat as team number five. Dan does not look thrilled as they high-ten. And who could blame him, after being in first place for any number of minutes?

Caite is philosophical as she and Brent trudge through the vineyard: "We came in here without a million dollars, doing perfectly fine, we can leave without a million dollars." Brent is less philosophical: "Can you walk a little bit faster?"

Building the tower, Jeff is confident they can catch up to the other team. Jordan says, "Yeah." Out in the vineyard, Caite finds a flagged grape bunch, and even this doesn't make Brent happy. "We should have stayed with this!" he yells at her. She starts apologizing. Meanwhile, Jeff is telling Jordan, "It doesn't have to be perfect... we just have to get up high." That theory's about to be tested. Caite continues apologizing as Brent starts detaching the grape bunch from the post.

Jeff tips a glass, and they have a corner-wise breakdown of their own. They stand there thinking on this for a minute, rubbing their slack faces. I mean, this isn't exactly something you can easily start over on, unless you don't care about losing a finger. Meanwhile, outside, Caite and Brent are getting their clue in sixth place. She continues to apologize in the car and they exchange I love yous. All better, then.

It's just about sunset as Team BB11 walks the field, Jeff saying they should "get this done with the least aggravation." Speaking of aggravation, Brent and Caite are arriving at L'Orrca. "Pick a number," Phil invites them. Brent hopes for lucky number six. Phil holds up the fingers of one gloved hand and the thumb of the other, which are hard to see against his black coat. "Fi--six? okay," Caite says. Even Phil cackles at her for that. In a post-leg interview, Caite says through gritted teeth, "I want to win this thing and it's really annoying me and I do not want to be last any maah! Dammit!" Thank you, Cartman.
