From Ukraine, teams need to fly to Morocco. Arrived there, they had to search for an antique shop where they had to choose a good luck charms and received their next clue.
Their next clue was a Roadblock where teams were to do a gladiators by racing horse chariots. While racing, they had to pull two flags that match the colour of their horse. There was also a yield in this Race. And as expected, the Beauty Queens yielded the single moms. Upon completing the Roadblock, teams then instructed to drive to Idelssan and search for Cafe La Pirgola.
Teams then received their Detour clue, a Throw It or Grind It. In Throw It, teams need to do clay pots. In Grind It, teams had to grind olives. All teams chose to do Grind It. At least one team from The Amazing Race Asia took the challenge and did the pottery :) Well, the single moms was heard quoted "I did pottery before and it's tough!"
After completing their Detour, teams then drove to Marrakech the Pit Stop of the Race. Tyler & James who is getting stronger and stronger arrived first and won themselves Sprint Treos with a free year of service. The single moms came in second, followed by Rob & Kim. The Beauty Queens arrived in last place and as I expected it was another a non-elimination leg. The BQ are safe for now as they are marked for elimination in the next Race! Which I think will be tough for them.

My findings:
Bad omen began for the BQ when they missed their connecting flight.
They were also felt threat when locals surrounded them when the taxi they paid stopped asking for directions.
They yielded the single moms which I think unnecessary. In TAR9 BJ & Tyler yielded MoJo team, ended last team to arrive. Which was also unnecessary during that time.
The BQ noticed Rob & Kim had a flat tyre but chose not to tell them. To me, it was no harm just to tell them that they had a flat and proceeded to where they are going. They were not forced to lend a hand unless you are the Cho brothers :)
The BQ in this Race had a bad navigation & decision. Everything seemed wrong for them. Were they too confident?
With all that, I think that's the reason for them to come in last place. I know it was a Race but don't be too mean just for the sake of winning.
