What "The Amazing Race" 4-th episode about
The eight teams continue on to Stockholm's Town hall tower and from there they were instructed to fly 3,500 miles to Dakar, Senegal in Africa.
Once there, the teams must find a grave site of a famous poet and some fall slightly behind for a while on a bit of bad information. Some teams had money issues with the taxi drivers.
Later, they face a Detour in which they must choose between Stack 'Em Up or Pull 'Em Up. Both choices involved fish. Stack 'Em Up, which involves stacking the fish in a pile, seems to be the faster choice, but a few teams opt for the fishing and fall behind because of seasickness.
Later, a Roadblock involves hauling salt out of a red lake called Lac Rose.
The teams were then told to travel by ferry to the island of Goree, where they must search for the next pit stop. The race to avoid elimination was close between two teams. In the end, one team was unable to catch up and checked in last place. They received a huge surprise when Phil informed them that this was the first of several non elimination rounds so they're still in the game, but they have been stripped of all money and will not be receiving any for the upcoming leg.
