With a clue directing them to fly to Singapore.

Just in time for this week's:
ROADBLOCK
"Who rings a bell? Patience and perseverence may be needed."
In this RoadBlock, the chosen team member must climb to the rooftop pagoda at the Golden Mount. There, they must search 560 "golden blessing bells" for silver clue capsules. Though there are 100 capsules, only six of these can be exchanged for the next clue. The chosen team members find a correct capsule and finish (after the first five teams to arrive must wait until the task opens at 8:00am):
1) Andy [Andy 4, Laura 2]
2) Syeon [Andrew 3, Syeon 3]
3) Francesca [Sandy 3, Francesca 3]
4) Marsio [Mardy 4, Marsio 2]
5) Joe Jer [Zabrina 2, Joe Jer 4]
6) Sahran [Howard 4, Sahran 2]
Immedaite after the RoadBlock, the next clue is a:
Bacon <--DETOUR--> Eggs
Teams selecting BACON must take a taxi to flagged tuk-tuks on a specified road, then navigate their driver through Bangkok's confusing streets to the nearby Pig Memorial Monument. Their drivers are not allowed to assist, but teams can ask for help from locals. PROS: Not physical. CONS: Language barrier.
Teams selecting EGGS must take a taxi to Pak Khlong Talad, find a specified egg vendor, stack 20 trays on a wheeler, and transport them to a different stall in the market. They must return and get replacements for any eggs they break. PROS: Task is potentially easier. CONS: Physical.
Teams choose options and finish:
1) Andy/Laura, who chose Eggs
2) Howard/Sahran, who chose Bacon
3) Andrew/Syeon, who chose Bacon
4) Sandy/Francesca, who chose Eggs, and found the end point of the task before they found the beginning
5) Mardy/Marsio, who chose Bacon
6) Zabrina/Joe Jer, who chose Bacon
The final clue of the leg directs teams to head to the Pit Stop at Wat Pho, also known as the Temple of the Reclining Buddha. Teams check-in:
1) Andy/Laura, who each win a year's supply of engine-cleaning Caltex fuel
2) Andrew/Syeon
3) Howard/Sahran
4) Sandy/Francesca
5) Mardy/Marsio
6) Zabrina/Joe Jer, who are not eliminated but lose all their money. They will not get any for the next leg.
