"The Amazing Race 20" [3] Trivia Quiz

Answer: Austria

Coming out of the fourth Pit Stop at the Piazza Castello in Turin, Italy, the eight competing teams were told to head to the train station to make their way northward to Ehrwald, Austria. Once there they would need to take a drive into Germany, specifically snowy Bavaria, where they would need to locate the Gasthof zum Rassen in Garmisch-Partenkirchen and wait for it to open to receive their clue and a Travelocity Roaming Gnome.

Answer: Bopper and Mark

Arriving at the lodge in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Bopper and Mark, who placed last in the fourth leg of the race (a non-elimination leg), needed to complete their Speed Bump task. This required that they dress in lederhosen and join a yodeler in a specific tune. Once they'd performed the task to the satisfaction of their teacher, they would be able to resume the race with the others.

Otherwise, the other racers commenced their Detour task, 'Fairy Tale' or 'Champion Male', both of which were a short drive through Bavaria.

Answer: Beards

For the Detour, teams choosing 'Champion Male' had to drive to Wetz-Stoa Stub'n in Unterammergau where they needed to choose a beard enthusiast and style their facial hair. Once they correctly shaped and formed the beard according to their photo, they received their clue. Art and JJ, Joey 'Fitness' and Danny, Rachel and Dave, Vanessa and Ralph, and Nary and Jamie finished this one. In 'Fairy Tale', teams located a witch's house in the fairy tale city of Oberammergau. On the way, they needed to collect gingerbread pieces in the forest so that they could construct a gingerbread house for a local witch. Brendon and Rachel, Kerri and Stacy, and Bopper and Mark did this one.

When they properly created their house, the witch handed them their next clue leading them to the location that inspired Sleeping Beauty's castle-- Neuschwanstein Castle.

Answer: True

Once teams located a clue in Ludwig II's bedroom in Neuschwanstein Castle, they were required to drive themselves to the Bundesleistungszentrum, an ice hockey and curling rink in Fussen. This would be where they completed the Road Block task in which they needed to use their Travelocity Roaming Gnome, sliding it across ice to hit the center of a bullseye.

This task was completed by JJ, Danny, Ralph, Nary, Brendon, Rachel, Mark, and Kerri though for some, the task took much longer than others.

Answer: Kerri and Stacy

After the Road Block task, teams were directed to their next Pit Stop, a respectable drive away to Schwangau-Horn, Germany to find Landhannes Farm. Once they entered a fully-functioning barn full of milking cows, they found Phil and the Pit Stop mat. Art and JJ retained their lead for a third consecutive win.

Their victory resulted in a trip for two to Thailand courtesy of Travelocity. Although Kerri and Stacy beat Nary and Jamie out of the Road Block, their directions to the farm proved insufficient and they arrived in last.

They became the fourth team eliminated from the race.

Answer: Baku

Leaving Landhannes Farm in Bavaria, the seven remaining teams headed to the airport in Munich and made their way to the city of Baku, Azerbaijan on the Caspian Sea. Arriving at night, the teams headed to Temple Ateshgah and were told to wait until sunrise to receive their next clue.

This allowed all of the waiting pairs to enjoy a festival with local dancers and performers at 'The Temple of Fire'. When they got their clues, they received a Fast Forward and a Route Info clue.

Answer: Rachel and Dave

In Azerbaijan, teams received a Fast Forward possibility at Temple Ateshgah. This sent participants to Saman Ot Bazary where they needed to pull bales of hay off a large truck and stack them in a pile to very particular specifications: ten bales in length, three bales wide, and five bales high for a total of one hundred fifty bales.

The first team to stack them accordingly received the clue. This was Rachel and Dave; they were allowed to head to the Pit Stop immediately thereafter.

Answer: Jamie

Heading to Occupational Training International in Baku, teams found a Road Block clue. This task required that one member of each team participate in a simulated helicopter crash performed in an indoor pool. Once they properly escaped the helicopter out one of the designated exits, they could swim to a life preserver containing their next bit of Route Info and head on their way. Bopper, Jamie, JJ, Brendon, Vanessa, and Joey "'Fitness' completed this unique task before taking a taxi to Old Baku's Toghrul Karabakh Carpet Shop.

Answer: 'Oil'

Finding a clue at team Toghrul Karabakh Carpet Shop, teams chose either 'Apples' or 'Oil' for their Detour. In 'Apples', Nary and Jamie, Vanessa and Ralph, and Joey 'Fitness' and Danny headed on foot to a local fruit market to search the interior of a car full of apples for a single fruit featuring a little race flag on the stem (this included checking the carriage and the trunk). Meanwhile, Bopper and Mark, Brendon and Rachel, and Art and JJ completed 'Oil' which sent them to the Naftalan Health Spa.

Here, after a customer bathed in crude oil for the health benefits, the teams needed to clean them off with a shoehorn.

Answer: Joey 'Fitness' and Danny

After completing the Fast Forward, Rachel and Dave took a taxi to their sixth Pit Stop, the Boulevard Esplanade Estakada in Baku. Arriving in first place (their third victory of the competition), they ended up receiving a 2013 Ford Taurus SHO each. As the other teams completed their Detour task, they headed to the Pit Stop as well.

In the end, Joey 'Fitness' and Danny were unable to catch up as they'd spent too long battling for the Fast Forward clue. When they checked in in seventh place, the last slot, they ended up eliminated and became the fifth team to leave the race.
