The new edition of The Amazing Race begins in Denver, Colorado, where the teams receive a clue instructing them to take one of three flights to So Paulo, Brazil. One team makes an immediate mistake by, contrary to instructions, booking the flight by phone and a flight delay causes an unexpected arrival time. Once in Brazil, the teams find a clue directing them to take a taxi three miles to the Santa Efignia Bridge. There, they find a Detour choice of either Rotor Head or Motor Head. Most teams opt for Rotor Head, which requires the teams to fly by helicopter to one of three buildings. A few opt for Motor Head, which requires them to assemble a motorcycle from a frame. A couple that choose this option later opt for Rotor Head instead. The teams then participate in a Brazilian religious ceremony culminating in a candle-lighting. They then travel 2 miles to the Pit Stop at Estdio do Pacaemb. Two teams fall greatly behind and one is unable to recover and is eliminated.

Rory and Logan attend his sister, Honor's wedding. Rory offers to help the bridesmaids get ready for the ceremony, and is hurt when she learns about Logan's behavior while they were apart. Meanwhile, Lorelai babysits Gigi to help Christopher out, but is appalled by the 4 year-old's terrible behavior and Zach comes to the diner with a surprise for Lane.

When an ambulance explodes while carrying the remains of a Marine's body that was killed in a car crash, the NCIS team is called in to investigate what actually happened. The investigation leads them to some sudden discoveries -- the DNA of the victim found in the ambulance doesn't match the Marine's DNA; the ambulance was set up to explode; and the family of the dead Marine is hiding a very important secret.
