(CBS) For the second time this season, an episode of "Amazing Race: Unfinished Business" ended while teams were still making their way to the pit stop.

The show - in which a last-place pit stop arrival generally means elimination - ended Sunday night with goth dating couple Kent and Vyxsin retracing their steps to retrieve a lost fanny pack filled with their money and passports.(SPOILER ALERT)

All the other teams had checked in with host Phil Keoghan at the pit stop. Margie and her hearing impaired son Luke were the first to arrive and won a trip to Aruba.

In another twist, also used in the season premiere, Keoghan handed teams another clue at the pit stop and told them to keep racing. Usually, the pit stop means 12 hours of rest for the weary teams who must complete tasks and challenges as they make their way across the globe.

In Sunday's China leg of the race, the teams had to ride a yak across a river, find their Chinese zodiac sign, arrange all the zodiac symbols in order and either pound a sugary confection into candy or carry a large horn as they lead a parade of dancers through city streets to a temple.

Most teams completed the tasks without trouble, though Harlem Globetrotters Flight Time and Big Easy had some trouble finding their birthdays in the zodiac and best friends Zev and Justin took ages to arrange the zodiac in order.

Kent and Vyxsin were in trouble from the start. Vyxsin had difficulty reading directions, causing the two to miss their flight to China. Viewers saw Vyxsin at the airport frantically searching for a misplaced passport; she apparently found it as the two set off on their first challenge after arriving in China, with no mention of passport trouble.

Vyxsin also had trouble finding the zodiac symbols in a stall full of charms, but she finally completed the task. As the two made their way to the pit stop, they discovered the fanny pack was missing and began to retrace their steps.

Will they be able to make up the time before this leg of the race ends? Where did the next clue take the teams? How many more tasks before the next pit stop?

Discuss this in the comments below and take our poll about who will win this season's race.
