Eleven of the most memorable teams return for another Race around the world, but in a dramatic series first, one team will not make it to the starting line, on the season premiere.

The Race continues in Sri Lanka where teams struggle to get a bite when fishing for their next clue.

One racer pours blood and tears into an exhausting Roadblock and another racer suffers a meltdown during an extremely difficult Detour.

Mark and Mallory continue to struggle with communication and one major mistake jeopardizes their chances to keep racing.

Teams race through the Malaysian jungle where the roaring rapids crush their spirits and their homemade rafts. Plus, after being struck by taxi deja vu, one team fights to stay in the running.

The teams are in Sri Lanka, where an exhausting Roadblock drains the racers of all their strength. Also, an epic race through the countryside ends with a footrace to the Pit Stop.
