- I'm standing aboard "The Queen Mary"
in the port of Long Beach, California.
From this historic harbor, teams will embark
on a race around the world for $ million.
[dramatic music]
Helicopters are now racing the teams toward the harbor.
Each team is made up of two people
with an existing relationship.
The teams are...
Debbie and Bianca, lifelong friends from Virginia.
- Bianca and I just love to have a good time.
We know how to make each other laugh.
We're always goofing off.
We're silly, silly, silly, silly, silly.
We both like to wear high heels and like fancy clothes,
but we're not girly girls.
- Debbie and I are both fearless.
We're tough.
We are intelligent.
We're strong, and we can win this thing.
- [Phil] Lynn and Alex,
boyfriends from West Hollywood, California.
- Alex and I have pretty sharp claws, absolutely.
- [Alex] But we only use them if you tick us off.
- I don't want to be breaking any nails.
- [Alex] All the teams will love us, but if they were smart,
they would never get on our bad side
because it's all downhill after that.
- We'll scratch their eyes out.
- Mm-hmm.
When they're not looking.
[Alex and Lynn laughing]
- [Phil] Rob and Amber met on "Survivor"
and are now engaged.
- We both have a competitive edge.
But even on top of that,
we have this profound friendship turned into love.
- Rob and I are definitely looking forward
to a life of settling down and having a house
and, you know, one day having a family
and living that type of life.
But right now, we're gonna do what we have to do to win.
- We've gone through "Survivor."
We've experienced the sleep deprivation, the malnutrition.
Any problem that's gonna arise
is not gonna be a physical problem for us.
[dramatic music]
- [Phil] Ryan and Chuck,
best friends from Inman, South Carolina.
- Chuck and my size is not an issue.
And I believe that's what makes us look like teddy bears.
When we have to use the natives of whatever land we're in,
they just take up with us.
And they're gonna like two old fat fellas
comin' from the hills of South Carolina.
That right? - I concur.
Everybody's gonna think we're just two plain old hillbillies
until we open up and show them what we're really made off.
- [Phil] Megan and Heidi,
roommates from Oak Park, California.
- [Megan] Heidi and I are two halves of one whole person.
It's an odd thing to understand or even at that explain.
- When we come together,
we prosper and nothing is out of our reach.
People may underestimate us on the race.
Being that we're thin, we have blonde hair.
We probably look ditzy to them, but it's a game.
We will play the game.
- [Phil] Susan and Patrick,
mother and son from Hamilton, Ohio.
- Mom and I have no problem letting other teams assume
that she's little Susie Homemaker
and I'm little, you know, gay guy.
- Patrick and I certainly have a devious side to us.
And, yes, we're willing to lie to get ahead.
- We are not the Cleavers.
We are here for business,
and we are here to pick out people one by one by one.
- [Phil] Meredith and Gretchen,
married retirees from Maryland.
- Our key strategy from the very beginning
is that old age and treachery
can outperform youth and inexperience.
- I think naturally, I'll be kind of
the motherly sort on this trip toward everyone,
but when push comes to shove,
Meredith calls me a mother tiger.
When I'm being cornered,
the other teams are gonna know
that they're gonna have to look out.
[dramatic music]
- [Phil] Brian and Greg,
brothers from Los Angeles, California.
Biggest thing we've got going for us is
that Greg and I are brothers.
We know each other so well,
we're not gonna waste time arguing and stuff.
- [Greg] Brian and I are big goofballs,
but we're charming and likable.
- We've been blessed with the ability to make friends easy.
And hopefully that will get us far in the race.
- [Phil] Uchenna and Joyce, married from Houston, Texas.
- Uchenna and I tried having a baby, and it didn't work.
- We've had two unsuccessful attempts in vitro.
We've been laid off from several major corporations.
And the financial burden has been enormous.
We're looking to the race to respark our relationship
and really make a team of us again.
- Hopefully, when we win the money,
we can have the baby that we dream of having.
- [Phil] Ron and Kelly, former P.O.W.
and pageant queen dating long distance.
- I was in the Army.
I flew Apache helicopters in Iraq before the w*r,
and the third day of the ground w*r,
I was sh*t down and I ended up spending days in a prison,
and I definitely feared for my life every single day.
- [Kelly] Ron and I basically met
because I needed someone to escort me
when I gave up my title as Miss South Carolina,
and who better to have than a former P.O.W.?
- Good-lookin' P.O.W.
- [Phil] Ray and Deana,
dating on and off for three years from Youngstown, Ohio.
- Ray is a very, very competitive person.
I mean, I'm a very competitive person myself,
but I'm not that extreme.
If it's not Ray's way, it's the highway,
and that's where we butt heads.
- I don't know what it is
that keeps Deana and I together,
but it's stronger than what's tearing us apart.
[dramatic music]
- Can these teams stand up to the stress
of traveling together across more than , miles?
Who will come up with the right combination
of brains, brawn, and teamwork to win the $ million?
These are the questions waiting to be answered
as we get ready to begin "The Amazing Race."
[dramatic music]
In just a few minutes,
you'll be leaving on a race around the world.
The race is split into a number of legs.
And as you travel, you'll have to complete various tasks.
At the start of each leg of the race,
you'll receive a small amount of cash,
and that has to cover all expenses, except airline tickets,
which you won't need to pay for.
At the end of each leg of the race, there is a pit stop.
Eight of these are elimination points,
so you need to get to them as fast as you can,
because if you're last, you'll be eliminated.
Everybody understand that?
- [Contestants] Yes.
- Your first clue is waiting inside the envelope
on top of the luggage you brought with you.
When I give you the word,
you can run over to your bags, read the clue,
and jump into one of the cars in the parking lot.
What happens after that is completely up to you.
The first team to cross the finish line will win $ million.
[contestants cheering and applauding]
Is everybody ready? - Yeah!
- All right, the world is waiting for you.
Good luck.
Travel safe.
[tense music]
Go!
[contestants shouting] [intense music]
- Fly to Lima, Peru. - Lima, Peru!
- Once there, travel by bus. - To Plaza de Armas.
- Search for your next clue.
- You may only travel- - On one of these two flights-
- Departing from L.A.X.
- United Airlines Flight .
- American Airlines Flight .
- You have $ for this leg of the race.
- $. Check.
- Grab that, let's go.
- Okay, let's roll. - All right.
- Let's do it.
- Let's go, baby!
- Just any car? - Get the black one.
Get the black one.
- Silver, silver, silver, silver!
- Okay, we'll take this one. - Pop the trunk, baby.
- Had shorty in here.
[dramatic music]
- Let's go, babe!
- Go, go, go.
- So get on the north, mom.
- Okay. - Honey, open the trunk.
- Yeah, if I knew how.
- L.A.X., here we go.
- Go, go.
- Don't let them, don't be courteous, we're in a race.
- We're following them. - Go, go, go!
- [Debbie] I can't move my seat forward.
- Okay, we can do this. - What the hell is this?
- Oh, god! - Ha ha ha!
- Lima, Peru! - Yes, Lima, Peru.
That's what I'm talking about.
[dramatic music]
[dramatic music continues]
[dramatic music continues]
[dramatic music continues]
[moves into intense music]
- Let's go, babe!
- American Airlines departing at :.
- All right, we're out of here.
We're on our way to Peru, oh, my god!
- None of the other teams know
that we actually grew up in California!
- We know where the airport is.
This is great.
- You feeling good, G? - I feel great.
Just trying to see who's behind us.
- We're following the dark-haired, tall guys.
- [Kelly] We hope that they know where they're going.
- Go the speed limit. - I'm not even, I'm at .
- [Megan] Yeah, you are, you're going , Heidi.
- Oh, I'm looking at the wrong thing. [laughs]
- [Ryan] Go, go, go!
- Drive it like you stole it, baby.
Motorcycles, cars, big trucks, tractors,
if it's got a motor, then I can drive it.
- Chuck and I's whole goal about this is to do it well
and to b*at everybody.
Left, left, to the left.
- I'm gettin' it, I'm gettin' it.
[calm music]
- Peru is like donkeys and blankets.
- Honey, I would hate for you to make
a sweeping generalization.
- [Gretchen] Here we go.
- Lima, Peru, can you believe it, honey?
- No, it wonders me why we're not being home
in our easy chairs in front of the fireplace
watching this instead of sitting here actually being in it.
- Who's behind us, nobody, right?
One team, I think.
- It's okay.
- Got it?
[car beeping] - There it goes.
All right, we got it.
- [Rob] So far, we're doing good.
- [laughs] We're in last place, but that's all right.
- It's all right, we left in last,
but we're going to get there first.
- [Deana] Don't let anybody pass you.
- Is that one of ours? - I don't know.
- There we go. - It's the mom, too.
- You got it. - Here we go, here we go.
- Thank you.
- [Deana] I should have driven.
- No, no, no.
It ain't about driving.
It's about rules, we got rules we gotta follow.
- I understand that.
But there's , people, they're breaking the rules.
Ray always thinking he's right pisses me off.
It irritates me, and he needs to start listening to me more.
- [Uchenna] The surfer guys are behind us.
- I'm going to pass these two.
- Oh, somebody's making a break.
We're gonna have to watch those two.
They're definitely in it to win it, you know what I mean?
[dramatic music]
- [Ryan] Uh-oh, got one comin' up on the hind side.
- [Chuck] There they go, there they go.
- Who is that?
- [Alex] Oh, my god, it's the hillbillies!
[passengers laughing]
- There go the happy boys. - Okay.
- They're uncomfortable
'cause normally they're in a tractor.
- Oh, there's the boys.
- The Barbie twins. [laughs]
- Oh, look, they're behind us, Heidi.
I am just loving them.
- So, Santa Monica. .
- [Heidi] I missed the freaking freeway, Megan.
Wait, what am I doing?
- Oh. [tires screeching]
- Sorry, sorry, sorry. - Oh, my god!
- I'm so sorry.
- Oh, they almost got in a wreck.
Damn! That sucks!
- I should not be driving right now.
- [Megan] Yeah, do you want to pull over and let me drive?
I want to do that, yes.
- Pull over and let me drive.
- Oh, my gosh!
Who are we passing?
See ya, big boobie beauties.
- Oh, my gosh.
They just got in front of me.
[Debbie and Bianca laughing]
I'm starving.
Wanna get something to eat?
How much money did they give us?
- $.
- This isn't "Survivor," you know, you can eat over there.
- Yeah, but I'm looking forward to losing some weight.
We need to lose some weight.
- [Megan] Okay, let's pull over and I'll get in.
- [Heidi] Yeah, I'm gonna k*ll someone if I keep driving.
- I cannot believe that just happened.
- [Heidi] Megan is a great partner
'cause she knows me well enough
to walk me through doubting myself.
I'm gonna lean on her when I need her for the strength
to get through what I'm about to do.
- I'm shaking right now. - It's okay, just calm down.
And we are perfectly fine.
- Man, my hands are shaking, I'm so excited.
- [Ray] Where are we going?
Peru. - Peru. Yeah.
- Got anybody behind us?
- [Deana] I can't see anybody right now.
- [Greg] We're there.
- Was that it, G?
Oh, my gosh.
That was Century.
- [Greg] Apparently, we just missed our exit.
- [Brian] Damn it!
- Kelly, you were a little out of breath there, weren't you?
- I was nervous.
[Ron laughs]
I'm hoping that the race
will show Ron and I about each other,
whether we are meant to be or whether we're not meant to be.
If my dream would come true,
Ron and I would win this race and we'd be together,
and it would be this fairytale ending.
Century Boulevard, that's on the map.
We've gotta park our car at Park One, so, I would-
- Is that off Century? - Yes.
- [Patrick] Good job, we are here.
Now turn right into this lot.
- [Ron] This will be it right here.
- [Patrick] There you go, good job.
- Go. - Come on, go.
- Okay, There's a couple up ahead of us.
- [Lynn] Oh, that's them!
- Oh, you, oh it's the hillbillies.
Oh, those hillbillies. - Oh, god.
- There go the happy boys.
Don't let in, don't you let that car in.
- All right, we're after him.
- Sure. - Thank you.
- Is that us? - That's us.
- [Ryan] Park your car in any available legal spot.
- Go!
Grab my bag.
[tense music]
- All right, let's do it, where's the shuttles?
- [Ray] Look for a shuttle.
- [Deana] I'm looking for one, I can't see one.
- One shuttle right here. - Shuttle.
- Oh, my god, oh, my god!
- [Deana] Where the hell are all the shuttles?
- There's one, damn it! - Damn it.
- [Ray] Suck it up.
- I can't get the key out, Bianca.
Get it out. - Trunk, trunk, trunk!
We are freakin' brilliant.
- Here come the shuttle, first shuttle.
- [Joyce] Damn it, everybody's here now.
- Did you guys see the girls almost get in a wreck?
- Yeah. - That was super scary.
- I don't think everybody is going to fit.
We gotta wait for another shuttle.
- American's the first terminal we're gonna come to.
- And United, I think, is way on the other side of L.A.X.
- You wanna go to United, ?
- So, should we take American or should we go United?
- I say we get off at the first one
and try to check the flight time.
- Let's get off at American.
- Gotta have a flag, gotta have a flag.
- Gotta have a flag.
- I think we should go to United Flight .
- Yeah.
- Like, I don't know what all those people are doing.
[tense music]
- We're winning the million.
Did I fail to mention that?
We're definitely winning the million.
- We're gonna have fun along the way.
- [Rob] Yeah, we're gonna have fun while we're winning.
Losing is not an option, I can't lose.
In my mind, I've already won.
But you know what, if we don't win it,
we already won a million.
- [Heidi] Okay, here we go, am I clear?
- Blondies. - There's the blondies?
- [Greg] Yep.
[car horn honking]
- Can I go?
- I'll let them go in front of us.
Get your butt up there.
- Thank you so much. - Oh, it's the boys.
- Your cute little pink butt.
- How funny. - Oh, they're the boys!
Oh, my gosh.
- [Greg] There's one right there.
What did the car say? - Sweet.
- [Greg] American's terminal .
- Wanna get a jog on? - Okay.
- Come on.
- High five on this part.
[contestants cheering and laughing]
[dramatic music]
- We need tickets. - To flight .
To Lima, Peru.
What time does it land?
- Arrives at : in the morning.
- Can you tell us if the United one lands
before this flight? - No, they won't know.
Let's just get one here and let's go.
- [Ron] I hope we did the right thing.
'Cause we are the all-American couple.
[both laughing]
- Good afternoon, sir.
- Hi. - Hi.
- We need to find out which one of these
is gonna get to Peru faster.
- [Staff] The Lima arrival's at : AM
connecting through Miami. - Oh, that's American.
- United gets in to J.F.K. At : P.M. tonight
and arrives in Lima at : A.M.
- Ooh. - Ooh.
Regardless if we risk it or not,
we're still gonna end up on this flight.
- Oh, that's true. - Come on.
- Let's go. - Let's go.
Do you know where American International is?
Departure?
- How far? - How far?
- ? - ?
Perfect, thank you.
- Doggone it.
I think we're heading away from it.
Doggone it, I know we are.
Oh, god darn it, we have to go all the way around.
- [Rob] Park One, right there.
Park One airport entrance.
- [Ray] American is at , terminal .
United is on .
So, American will be first.
- And that's the later flight?
- That's the later flight.
- You wanna go to American?
- Sometimes the one who leaves later lands first.
- Thank you very much.
There they are.
- Has anybody figured out?
- American connects in Miami
and get there at : in the morning.
- And the other one?
- [Susan] We don't know what time the other one.
They won't tell us.
Does anybody have a cell phone
that I could borrow by any chance?
- Yeah.
- Thank you so much, I appreciate it.
United Airlines.
Yes, can you please tell me when United Airlines Flight ,
when it's gonna arrive in Lima, Peru?
That one gets there at :.
Okay, great, thank you so much, I appreciate it.
Debbie, let's just hope we get on this one
'cause this one's faster.
- Yeah, that's what we're gonna do.
- We've gotta be a little quicker, I think.
- [Amber] I know!
- I think we're taking our time too much.
- Park One is right there in front of us.
- Hot dog.
Park One. - Okay, first legal spot.
- Is there anybody else on this?
- [Meredith] Park One shuttle, yo!
- [Gretchen] Stop.
- Go, go, go.
Ha ha!
- He's not gonna let us on.
- That's too bad.
- Doggone it.
[dramatic music]
[dramatic music]
- [Gretchen] Stop!
- Go, go, go.
Ha ha!
- He's not gonna let us on.
- That's too bad.
- Here he goes.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
- [Driver] You're welcome, what airline?
- [Gretchen] Thank you.
United. - United, please.
- [Gretchen] You guys were all saying, "Go, go, go."
- That's not necessarily true.
- [Alex] Lynn, in here, let's go.
- Alex. - Yeah?
- I don't know if we're gonna get on or not,
because there's all these teams in front of us.
- Four, five, six, we're not gonna getting on.
- Let's get a shuttle now. - Let's just get a shuttle.
Oh, Park One, Park One.
- [Lynn] Should we tell them?
You guys.
- [Amber] Why are you guys getting back on?
- It's full, this flight's full.
- [Amber] Oh, really?
- American is full?
That's the later flight.
- The flight that leaves later, arrives in Peru sooner.
- [Amber] Damn it.
- We're back.
If we can get tickets to Peru.
- Gate .
- Thank you. - Thank you so much.
- We would like some tickets, please, to Peru.
- Thanks. - You're welcome.
- Two seats to Lima, Peru.
- Thank you very much.
- [Greg] There it is.
- Uchenna. - Uchenna? Greg.
- Brian. - Brian.
- Joyce. - Joyce? Greg.
What's your name, by the way?
- Megan. - Megan? Brian.
- I knew that. - Greg.
- Nice to meet you, Megan.
Are you guys sisters?
- No. - No?
- We're friends. - Friends?
- We need some flights to Lima, Peru.
- Okay? - On flight .
- [Staff] Just let me get the boarding passes.
- Yes, ma'am, right here.
- I'm seeing six teams in front of us.
Now the question is whether there are enough tickets for us,
when we get to the end of the line?
- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you.
He reminds me of my first boyfriend I ever had.
Did he end up being gay?
I said- - No.
- Well, I am.
[all laughing]
- From Miami to Lima.
- Thank you very much.
- Mwah! I love you. - I love you too, honey.
- Those two girls were, nevermind.
- Okay, thank you. - Okay.
- This is your boarding pass from Miami to Lima.
- Okay, perfect, thank you. - So, you're all set.
- Thank you.
- Two tickets to Lima, Peru.
- Uhh...
We've run out of seats.
This flight is full.
- They're out of seats.
- All right. - All right.
All right.
Down to United, right?
What do we got, what do we got?
- We need tickets to Lima, Peru.
- This is for you. - Okay, thank you.
- Hello, we need tickets to Lima, Peru.
- [Staff] Okay.
[rhythmic music]
- What's up, guys? - What's up?
- We're bringing up the rear,
making sure we didn't leave anyone behind.
- I'm Greg. - Nice to meet you, Greg.
- I'm Alex. - I'm Brian.
- This is fun. - Yeah.
[tense music]
- Oh, I don't normally tell a lot of people this,
so I'm not sure if I want everyone to know it.
I was in the Army, Operation Iraqi Freedom.
Well, I got sh*t down and taken prisoner for a while.
- No kidding!
- Yeah, and that's why I came on the race, really.
If I win the money or whatever,
it'll be to give the money to, you know,
guys who are disabled over there and stuff like that.
- You've got my respect, you really do.
- Thanks. - I appreciate it.
[dramatic music]
- [Phil] All teams are now heading to Lima, Peru.
The United flight that connects through New York
carries Lynn and Alex, Rob and Amber, Meredith and Gretchen,
Uchenna and Joyce, and Brian and Greg.
The American flight that connects through Miami
carries Ron and Kelly, Ryan and Chuck,
Susan and Patrick, Ray and Deana,
Debbie and Bianca, and Megan and Heidi.
Once the teams land in Lima,
they'll have to travel to Plaza de Armas,
also known as Plaza Mayor, to find their next clue.
With only an hour and minutes separating the two flights,
which teams will surge ahead,
and which team will be eliminated first?
[upbeat music]
[moves into dramatic music]
- [Ron] There goes the bus, right there.
- [Susan] You don't have to hold my hand.
[contestants and civilians speaking in foreign language]
- My mother's Hispanic, so I grew up speaking Spanish.
[civilians speaking in foreign language]
- [Chuck] I consider myself fairly fluent in Portuguese.
My Portuguese lets me get by a little bit with Spanish.
- All right.
- Come on, just get something.
- This way, Plaza Mayor, right?
- This is it. - This is the bus.
- [Driver] Hurry, hurry, hurry.
Plaza Mayor. [speaking in foreign language]
[dramatic music]
- [Ron] We're in Lima, Peru.
Honestly, to me, it looks kind of like downtown Baghdad.
- [Susan] For me, it's certainly eye-opening.
It's certainly not a way that we're accustomed to living.
- [Ray] Let's ask these guys on the corner.
You speak Spanish.
Plaza de Armas?
Right here?
Thank you.
Come on, Deana. - It's hard with this.
[dramatic music]
- [Contestant] Plaza Mayor?
- Hey, hey, hey, this way, he pointed this way.
Oh, I see it.
[dramatic music]
- Where did you see it? - Right there.
Open it, open it.
Oh, god. - Route marker.
Travel by bus to the city of Ancon.
- [Phil] Teams must now travel by bus
miles to the city of Ancon.
Once there, they must make their way by rickshaw
to this beach, known as Playa Hermosa.
Teams must search these three sand piles
for a set of airline tickets for their next destination,
Cusco, Peru.
There are three departure times available.
: A.M., : A.M., and : A.M.
Once a team claims a set of tickets as theirs,
they may not search another pile.
- Tickets are first come, first serve.
All right, let's get a bus.
- Let's get a bus. - Okay. Let's go.
- We need to find a bus to Ancon.
[Chuck and driver speaking in foreign language]
- We need someone to speak English.
I can't stand not being able to communicate.
- I really think that we should break off,
the two of us, and be on our own.
It is way too difficult to travel with this whole crew.
- Okay.
- Patrick looks exactly like the first boyfriend I ever had.
And Susan is like another mom for us, too,
so we really have latched on to them.
And we hope this alliance lasts throughout the race.
- Hey, guys.
The girls that speak Spanish...
obviously they found another route.
We have no idea where we're going.
That's not good.
[contestants and civilian speaking in foreign language]
- We have such good teamwork over here, whoo whoo!
In the lead.
[Ryan and civilians speaking in foreign language]
- [Ron] We're looking for a bus that goes to Ancon
and it's so far eluding us.
It's a magical bus that we will never find.
[tense music]
- Hi.
- All right. - We can do it.
- [Patrick] Awesome, thank you, guys.
[dramatic music]
- [Joyce] Okay, where's the bus?
Where do we get the bus at?
- Well, well, well, just follow me, follow them.
- [Rob] Can we get away from these guys?
- [Friend] Go to the right, to the right.
- [Rob] We met this guy while we were at customs
and he recognized us from "Survivor"
and offered to help us with what we're doing here today.
- [Greg] They got a guy helping 'em
- [Brian] Is he going with 'em?
- [Greg] Yeah, that's the guy that's helping 'em.
- [Lynn] There's a bus, Alex.
Yeah, this looks sketchy.
- Run, Gretch. - Okay.
I'm coming, hon.
- [Rob] Honey, come here for a minute.
When it comes down to it these people are gonna screw us.
- [Amber] I know, honey.
- The buses are grande, grande.
- Wow, Alex, you're so international.
- Come on, get in, get in, get in.
Get in, get in, get in, get in.
- Normally he would stop and pick people up
but he's not going to stop.
I just told him we wanted to go direct,
so he'll just charge us a little bit extra.
- Hey, we've got pesos.
- [Lynn] Hey, where's Rob and Amber?
- Here comes a big bus, nobody's on it?
Oh, sweet.

into not picking any more people up.
He's only gonna drop people off.
So, we'll get there a lot quicker
than any other bus would.
- And we got it for bucks.
[Chuck speaking in foreign language]
- I have no idea what the hell anyone is saying.

Nobody knows it.
We need to all get on the same bus,

That would have saved us some time.
- [Meredith] Let's go.
Let's go, let's go.
- You have to be careful.
- I fell down and I couldn't get up.
If we get through this race, and we survive,
it'll be the damnedest day of our lives.
- Right there?
- [Uchenna] It did seem like forever getting here.
Man, I hope we're not last.
[dramatic music]
[contestants speaking in foreign language]

if we didn't find this guy?

I'll appreciate it after we get over there.
- [Chuck] He ain't got but one gear, brother.
- [Ryan] We'll get out and run if we need to.
- [Chuck] Yeah, we'll pull it.
- Where's the sand? - Rapido. Rapido.
- [Ryan] Come on!
The high side, clear the high side!
Clear on the high side!
Clear on the high side!
Jump on, I'm about to die. - Whoo hoo!
[contestants cheering]

Did you find one, yay! - Got one.
- Keep going. - Congratulations.
- You'll be flying on the : A.M. flight
to the mountain village of Cusco.

Hola. - Hola.

- [Rob] There's one for it left.
Come on, come on.
Six o'clock, this must be the earliest.
Right, start digging.
- There's Rob and Amber, damn!
How did they catch up?
Come on, Deana, run.
They're one of the teams on the first flight.
- Hi. - Hi, guys.
How did you get here already?
Deana, get over here.
- I'm coming.
- [Heidi] Oh, sh**t, Megan.
- [Bianca] Go, blondies!
- [Deana] I have no idea.
- [Rob] Got it.
That's it.
By the skin of our teeth.
- [Heidi] :.
- [Megan] Heidi, before you dig that one
we should see what other time the other one is.
- [Heidi] It may not be the fastest.
- We came here first, let's just do this one.
- We did it.
- You'll be flying on a : A.M. flight.
- If we had a choice between Amber and Rob
or anybody else that was on our flight,
we wouldn't have chosen Amber and Rob.
- [Debbie] They don't need to win again.
- [Megan] Left side.
- Whoa, partner! [speaking in foreign language]
- Get down there. - Okay, we've gotta find it.
- Should have run on dad-gum grass.
- I can't feel anything in here.
- Damn!
[dramatic music]
- Hey, gals. - Hi.
We need some help here.
- What's the other times, y'all, did y'all check?
- We just picked one.
- [Deana] How come we cannot find this?
- Just look.
Movin' a lot of sand.
- They're all digging frantically other there right now.

Go to the one where the blonde girls are.

Holy cannoli.

- Check out the time on this one.
Oh, you've gotta be kidding.
Dang it!
- Can't trust them at all. - Uh-uh.
[calm music]
- The two girls, Debbie and Bianca.
To be honest with you,
they might have told you the second pile on purpose.
- Oh, I'm sure they did.
- [Ray] As far as trusting,
I don't think that's really an option now.
- Game on. - Yeah, really.
- Gracias, gracias.
- Ancon, baby.
Playa Hermosa.
[Greg and driver speaking in foreign language]
- It's amazing. - Yeah.
Right here, right here.
[Greg speaking in foreign language]
Let's do some digging.
Now there's none there. - There's none there.

Whoa,

Rickshaws?
Playa Hermosa. - Playa Hermosa, si.

Okay, this is it.

[Meredith speaking in foreign language]
[dramatic music]

There's the guys, let's go.

[tense music]
- Look at what's happened.
- Oh, the other group!

- [Alex] It's all the way back there.
- [Meredith] Where'd those guys come from?

Oh, for crying out loud, look how far they are.

Oh, my god, dear.
Oh, my god!
[contestants shouting]

I love you, Lynn. - I love you.

Don't tell them they're looking for the wrong time.
My god.
This is hard.
- This is so cool. - Isn't this beautiful?
You know, you gotta come a long way
to see something you've never seen, right?
- Where haven't we dug?
Ah! - Okay, good.
Is there one more over there?
- [Gretchen] One's at

if we'd taken that other one.
- Well, but we didn't know.

Here we go.
We got it.
All right.
- Cusco. - Oh!
[calming music]
- [Rob] I don't know, the campfire,
I thought we were back on "Survivor."
I was worried about everybody plotting to kick me out.
[contestants laughing]
[tense music]
[Debbie speaking in foreign language]
- We're on the same flight at : A.M.
as Rob and Amber and Bianca and Debbie.
- It's weird, because even though
the other teams are being nice to Rob and I,
you still have this gut feeling
that they don't really want us here.
- They don't want us to win again.
That's just too bad for them, isn't it? [laughs]
[dramatic music]
- Got it? - Got it.
- [Patrick] Let's go.
[dramatic music]
- Thank you. - Gracias.
- All right.

We'll let you know.
- Listen to me.
Get used to being b*rned.
It's gonna happen a lot.
- I know it.
- They don't even know
if they're going to get them on our flight.
This is huge.
- Well, here we go, here we go.
- Okay, I will transfer the group of you
to the earlier flight.
- We're gonna be on the same flight
that has the other teams? - Yes.
- Okay.
- So, now we're all on the same flight.
[tense music]
- Do you feel weird? - My heart's b*ating fast.
- I already do feel a little weird.
Sort of lightheadedness.
- [Bianca] Debbie and I are feeling really lightheaded.
It's from the altitude, I think.
- [Patrick] Ah, here we go.
In order to deal with altitude sickness,
we need to drink a bottle of mate de coca.
Gracias.
- It's a wonder tea. - Gracias.
Clue, clue, clue.
Debbie.
Debbie!
- Patrick. - This is it, good job.
Tear that open.
- Come on, come on, come on.
- [Both] Make your way to the marked taxi to Huambutio.
- [Phil] Teams must make their way miles
to the small town of Huambutio
and find this kiosk.
The owner, Felipe, will hand them their next clue.
- Okay. - All right.
- So, we're gonna go to the marked taxi.
- Marked taxi. - Right there?
- Rapido, rapido. - Let's go.
- And ask the owner, Felipe, for your next clue.
[contestants and driver speaking in foreign language]
- [Susan] This is where I need to go.
[driver and Patrick speaking in foreign language]
- [Rob] Huambutio, he knows where we're going.
- [Amber] The scenery is just unbelievable.
We definitely don't have anything
like the mountains they have here in Peru.
- It's unbelievable.
- Oh, look out there.
- [Patrick] Oh, wow, this is beautiful, these mountains.
But where are Debbie and Bianca?
They're probably ahead of us. - I think they're up there.
- We are number one.
Numero uno. - Numero uno.
- Gracias.
Yay, woohoo!
We're here.
Felipe?
[contestants and Felipe speaking in foreign language]
Open it.
Travel by taxi across the bridge
and get to the top of the gorge.
- [Phil] Teams must now make their way two miles
and find the top of this gorge.
When they arrive, they'll take a zip line
to the other side of the gorge
and a second zip line to get to the bottom.
When they land, they'll open their next clue.
- Awesome.
- [Patrick] Oh! There it is.
- They already found it. - Good.
Sorry, Mom.
[contestants speaking in foreign language]
- Felipe?
[contestants speaking in foreign language]
Descend more than , feet.
Patrick, come on, come on!
- Another taxi up way there. - Okay, okay.
- [Amber] Uno momento, you stay?

- To the top of the gorge.
[contestants speaking in foreign language]
Oh yes, keep Rob and Amber behind us.
- Descend more than , feet to the bottom.
- Okay. - Come on.
Come on, come on.
- We're going up the side of a mountain.
One wrong move and that's it, sayonara.
[dramatic music]
- Yeah, woohoo, we're here. - Number one.
Gracias.
All right, let's do this.
- We're number two. - Awesome.
Oh, man, here we go, Mom.
- [Rob] Okay, we're here.
Are you kidding me?
- Oh, my god, what are we doing, jumping?
- [Amber] We're, like, gliding down those things.
It looks very scary.
Bianca is first.
- Oh, my lord.
Oh, my gosh.
- Go, baby!
- One, two, three, go! - Ah!
[triumphant music] Oh, my gosh!
Whoo!
Look at this view!
It's incredible.
Whoo!
- [Rob] If she can do it, we can do it.
- Step off. - Whoo, woohoo!
[triumphant music]
- Woohoo! [laughs]
Oh, my gosh!
Team number one!
All right.
I have clue for you, but you're not allowed to open it
until you get down with your partner.
Vamonos!
- [Debbie] Woohoo!
Woo!
[tribal music]
Detour.
- Rope a llama or rope a basket.
- A detour is a choice between two tasks,
each with its own pros and cons.
In this detour, teams have to choose
between tw common Peruvian chores,
rope a llama or rope a basket.
In rope a llama, each team must rope
two llamas from this field
and take them to one of these pens.
When the delivery is complete,
the llama herder will hand them their next clue.
Roping the llamas doesn't require much strength,
but getting them to cooperate and walk to the pens
could be frustrating and take a long time.
In rope a basket, each team member must use a rope
to tie one of these baskets to their back
and then carry the basket,
filled with pounds of alfalfa, /rds of a mile
to this store to receive their next clue.
Carrying the basket requires strength,
but teams with endurance could finish quickly.
- /rds of a mile is a long time in altitude, Debbie.
- Whatever you want to do, how about that.
- No, baby, no. - Let's start the llamas.
[dramatic music]
- Oh, my god.
[Susan screaming and laughing]
- Hola.
- Oh my gosh.
Now I'm getting nervous.
Oh, my god!
[Patrick laughing]
Oh, my god, I'm glad I peed right before I did that.
- Okay, , , , go. - Vamonos!
- [Susan] Whoo!
- [Staff] You're not allowed to open it
until you see your mother. - Thank you.
[Patrick laughing]
Hi, Mom!
Oh, my god, that was awesome.
Detour, rope a llama or rope a basket.
- This is when we need to calm down
and decide calmly what we want to do.
- So let's start the llamas. - Let's talk about it.
- That's easier, rope the llamas, let's do it.
Were going to rope the llamas.
- Don't yell at me. - We're gonna do that.
- [Patrick] That's it, so, we have to go up those stairs.
And plus, right now, we're ahead of Rob and Amber.
- Woohoo!
- Woohoo!
Holy cannoli!
- [Amber] Woo!
- Here's your next clue. - Okay.
Woohoo!
- Yeah, baby!
Hurry up!
[tense music]
- [Rob] Come on, we're doing the baskets.
- First ones off the plane.
Lookin' for a clue box. - Right here, right here.
Fantastic. - All right, here we go.
[contestants speaking in foreign language]
Vamonos.
That means we go. - All right.

- Next clue. - Marked taxi.
- Ask the owner Felipe for your next clue.
[contestants speaking in foreign language]
- Very, very rapido.
[dramatic music]
- Fast! - As fast as possible.
- [Deana] This sucks.
We got the back of the plane.
- Bad luck so far, our luck's due to change.
- Up here. - Let's go.

Come on, come on, come on.
- Bianca, we can't do this. - Can you try, please?
- [Patrick] We're gonna find a really cute one
that likes us.
Lay it across his back.

- I'm almost there.
Let's go, it's you and me.
Swat him from behind, Mom.

- [Rob] Oh, this is nothing, babe, we can do this.
We're wearing funny hats.
- Ready? - Ready?
Make sure you go it.
Come on.
I might have to put my Sox hat on the outside.
Ah, when in Incaville do as the Incas, right?
- Por favor.
Oh, this is difficult.
Come on, he's gonna spit on you, Mom, watch it.
- Come on, come on, come on.
Lets try for a couple seconds,
we've only been doing this for five minutes.
- I'm not doing this.
This is Ret*rded.
- I think this is the faster one, Debbie.

Rob and Amber probably have the things on their back
and they're up the hill.
- Oh!
- Just put it back together!
Wrap it around.
- Baby, I'm falling again.
- [Amber] Because your rope's not tight enough.
- [Rob] All right, let's just calm down.
You want to go.
Come on, you know you want to go.
Come on, Debbie, slow and steady, we can do this.
- He's not gonna go.
This is Ret*rded.

We're only two miles behind Rob and Amber, now.

Oh! God! - That's all right.
Sneeze on each other, yeah.
Oh, Mom!
Rob and Amber are gonna get first.
