All the teams get on the same plane to Malawi.  Jeremy and Sandy get to the warehouse first and there is a roadblock.  Wearing a workmen’s uniform they must transport 10-200lb bags of coffee on a dolly to the holding area.  As they are moving the bales while the local workers are singing and yelling and encouraging them.

Two couples Amani & Marcus and Cathi and Bill get stuck in traffic and are behind all the rest of the teams getting to the roadblock.  Cathi and Bill manage to get to the warehouse next and Bill does the challenge.  Finally Marcus and Amani arrive last and Marcus decides to complete the roadblock.

Jeremy and Sandy are the first team to finish the roadblock challenge and have to make their way to Memorial Tower for the next clue.

Jeremy & Sandy get to the clue first and it is a Detour they have to choose either ‘All sewn up’ in this challenge they must go to the Tailor shop and stitch the unfinished seems of a jacket and pants or “Not grown up’ in this challenge they must visit a  school and working with scrap material they must build 2 children’s toy trucks.

Meanwhile, the last two teams at the warehouse are Bill and Marcus.  Bill manages to finish first and they are on their way and it leaves Marcus to finish the challenge and he looks exhausted.  Marcus is encouraged by the spirit of the local workers as they chant, shout and encourage him to finish.

Most of the teams choose to make the toy trucks.  Cathi is the first to finish the pants and is on to the jacket.  She has a lot of sewing experience.
