The skydiving plane takes off with John Vito and Jill, Flo and Zach, and Aaron and Arianne inside. Michael and Kathy see the plane from the ground and realize that they may not have made exactly the right choice. John Vito and Jill jump first. They appear to have quite the good time. Ditto Aaron and Arianne. When they land, we find out that John Vito and Jill are sporting their best camo gear -- she has a tank, and he has the pants. How very paramilitary of them. When they open the clue on the ground, they find out that they have to go to what it is now clear is the Hacienda San Gabriel de las Palmas. It's very beautiful, and a former monastery. The last team to arrive will be eliminated, Phil explains, and then a gong sounds, so you know he's totally serious.
JV and Jill hop in a white van, which I guess is the designated form of transportation. She struggles mightily with the gears. Hee.
Gerard and Ken make it to the hacienda. They are greeted by the local greeter, who hardly gets to do anything now that Phil has just about taken over the Mat of Destiny. Rather foolishly, Phil attempts to build suspense before telling them that they're first to arrive. Duh, Phil. I also don't like this shirt on Phil. It's too baby blue. He needs deep-water blue. I'm just saying. He also tells them that they've won a cruise after the show for winning the leg. It's courtesy of Aeromexico. Just kidding.
Up in the plane, Flo and Zach jump. She voices over that her parents are going to kill her, and they're going to kill Zach. Why would they kill Zach? Like she's eight, and he tells her what to do? Like they didn't know The Amazing Race would eventually ask you to do something glamorously risky? Give me a break. Aaron lands, followed by Flo and Zach. Aaron wonders where Arianne is. Yeah, don't get excited. You wish she were tangled in power lines. Zach opens the clue for the hacienda, and they're off. Arianne lands at last.
