PHIL KEOGHAN: Previously
onThe Amazing Race...
through the Czech Republic.
Now, this is where
it gets tricky.
KEOGHAN:
Three teams made
their alliance official.
ALL:
One, two, three. Train Wreck.
KEOGHAN: With the Driver's Seat
at a beer-bottling Roadblock...
All right, look. Three crates,
two crates, one crate.
...the alliance
hatched a plan...
Natalie and Stephanie are
in the Driver's Seat.
We're giving the boys
the heavier loads,
and we're giving the girls
the lighter loads.
...keeping their alliance
a secret
and other teams happy
with their decision.
One crate, baby.
-Let's go.
-Let's go, ladies!
-KYLAND: Oh, two crates.
-TAYLOR: Oh, okay.
KYLAND:
Okay, thanks, Nat.
KEOGHAN:
At the Pit Stop,
Jas and Jag handed Natalie
an early birthday present.
-Happy birthday.
-So you... Oh, my...
-You got it.
-And thank you for...
-Oh, my God, I love you guys.
Natalie and Stephanie,
you are team number one.
-Yes.
-Yes.
-Thank you, guys.
-Thank you, guys.
KEOGHAN:
Kat and Alex were on thin ice.
KAT:
I just don't want him to get
too frustrated 'cause then
that's when he starts spiraling.
Come on! Dang it.
KEOGHAN:
But in the end,
newlyweds Matt and Megan
lost their way.
Unfortunately, you were unable
to complete the course today,
and I am very sorry to tell you
that you have been eliminated
from the race.
-That's all right. That's okay.
-That's okay.
-KEOGHAN: Coming up tonight...
-God.
...Tucker and Eric
take a puzzling
-Fast Forward.
-Done.
Oh, I missed by .1.
KEOGHAN:
And Joseph and Adam
get clowned at the Detour.
[squeaks]
-Route Info.
-Route Info.
KEOGHAN:
All teams will travel
by overnight train
more than 300 miles southwest
to the landlocked country
of Hungary...
...and the capital city
of Budapest,
renowned for its captivating
architectural blend
of style and character.
-Let's go.
-So we have to get to Hungary.
NATALIE:
We want to keep the lead
'cause it is my birthday,
so we're hoping
to get another number one.
-We're trying to get
to Budapest, Hungary.
-Yeah.
"Travel by train
to Budapest, Hungary."
Budapest.
JAG:
Today we're leaving
seconds
behind Natalie and Stephanie.
We actually let them have
the first place.
We feel like
there's a lot of heat on us
after two first-place finishes.
JAS:
And we have an Express Pass.
JAG:
So hopefully,
that will help mitigate
our threat level.
NATALIE:
Okay. Okay.
-We got to find this.
-STEPHANIE: Where is it?
Down here.
NATALIE:
There. Go, go, go.
We have to go to Budapest.
We want to get there
as soon as possible.
STEPHANIE:
Any earlier trains?
Okay.
-NATALIE: Guys.
-JAS: Hey, did you guys get
the same one at, uh...
-WOMAN: 7:28.
-7:28.
-STEPHANIE: Same one.
-Yes. And then the next one
-is... Yeah. Perfect.
-Yeah.
NATALIE:
Thank you.
STEPHANIE:
Can we get two, please?
-Thank you so much.
-We love you.
Thank you.
We're basically looking to get
to Budapest
as quickly as we can.
I think we take this one
with the transfers
and don't take
the straight-through.
Excuse me?
JOSEPH: We have to get
in front of Tucker and Eric
and reunite with our alliance,
the Train Wreck,
which consists
of Natalie and Stephanie,
Jas and Jag, and Adam and I.
This is make-or-break for us.
We can either climb
back up to the top
or slowly trickle down,
and we definitely need
to get back up.
Thank you so much.
You did us so much help.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
-[laughter]
-Hi.
Are we all taking this risk
again at 6:42?
HANNAH:
Hi. How are you?
We are trying to get two tickets
to Budapest, Hungary.
SIMONE:
Is that the quickest way? Okay.
Could we possibly borrow
your phone just for a moment
to look up
where we're going in Budapest?
Yeah, sure.
We're debating train options.
Thank you, thank you.
JOSEPH:
Oh, there's Izzy and Paige.
[Joseph whooping]
Hey, what up, Joseph?
-[laughs] Are you guys okay?
-What's up?
-You guys got everything?
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.
-Oh, you're...
-We're working it out.
We're working it out right now.
-What train did you get on?
-Do you guys have any questions?
You look, look. I'm gonna...
What train did you get on?
-We got on the first one.
-The early one
-with the connection?
-Yeah. Yeah.
Okay, we're gonna think about
it. We'll check back in.
-Okay. Okay. We're good.
-We're just thinking.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.
-You got it.
JAG:
Yeah.
JAS:
Obviously, they were very
receptive to Joseph and Adam,
but as soon as we walked over,
they just
cut the conversation short.
So, to us, that means they're
not trying to work with us,
and so we're going to keep that
in mind moving forward,
because they might be a threat.
-Thank you so, so much. Yes.
-You ready?
-Yeah.
-Enjoy your travels.
-Thank you.
Thank you, Jessica. [laughs]
PAIGE:
Thank you so much.
RUBINA:
Three changes?
KRISTINE:
This just has more things,
so are we gonna have
an opportunity to rest?
I only had one hour
of sleep last time.
-RUBINA: Yeah.
-And I did poorly.
We're older. Do you know what
I'm saying? Everything hurts.
Just do it.
-Let's book it. Okay.
-Yeah.
-After you, my lady.
-Dude.
[laughter]
I guess we're hopping in.
So we got Hannah and Simone,
Jas and Jag,
Natalie and Stephanie,
Izzy and Paige,
Joseph and Adam, and we think...
TUCKER:
Hoping for Rubina and Kristine.
Probably hear her
before I see her.
RUBINA:
Oh, we're going to Budapest!
-KRISTINE: Cool.
-I've always wanted to go.
TUCKER:
They played it safe.
Played it safe.
JACK:
Oh, here we go.
CHELSIE:
So, we're headed here.
Right now,
only one option, the 10:01.
KYLAND: We're trying
to get tickets to Budapest.
Whatever gets there the soonest.
-[Alex sighs]
-We're here.
We have to make it
to Budapest, Hungary.
-Yeah.
-Let me see.
KAT: So right now,
we are gonna do an overnight
train to Budapest.
It arrives
at 8:29 a.m. in the morning.
We did some research,
and the other teams are arriving
at the very earliest,
one hour ahead of us.
-Thank you so much.
-Thank you so much.
-Uh-huh. Welcome.
[train whistle blows]
ALEX:
Oh, this is fancy.
KAT:
Oh.
This is the miracle
that we have been
hoping for, because we ran into
Taylor and Kyland...
Oh, my God, that feels so good.
...Chelsie and her dad Jack...
Got a blanket, sheet.
Oh, yeah.
...and Rubina and Kristine.
-Make your beds.
-We get to sleep.
-We're living the life, baby.
-Wow.
KEOGHAN: All teams are now
traveling by train to Budapest.
When they arrive,
they'll travel by foot
to the Széchenyi Thermal Baths
to find their next clue.
JAG: Everyone check that
this is the right train station.
[Izzy groans]
[sighing]
You can get inside immediately.
IZZY:
Oh, my God.
These overnight trains
are gonna k*ll me.
STEPHANIE:
That direct is looking
real nice right now.
NATALIE:
I know, and they get to sleep.
-It's time for me to go to bed.
-[ding]
[Rubina laughs]
ERIC:
I have low hopes
of being able to sleep
at this station as well.
[snoring]
-JAG: All right.
-JAS: All right, let's go.
-I like it.
-STEPHANIE: Another cold one.
JAS:
And...
-I just miss... I'm so tired.
-So...
TUCKER:
All this just
to get an hour ahead.
♪
♪
WOMAN [over P.A.]:
Please stand back
from the platform edge.
Thank you.
NATALIE:
I have never felt so crusty.
JOSEPH:
I felt crusty
one other time in my life,
and it was yesterday.
ERIC:
Final metro should
spit us out right by the, uh...
by the baths.
STEPHANIE:
And... go.
Oh, let's go, guys.
NATALIE:
This is it.
-JAG: This looks like the bath.
-ERIC: This is the bathhouse.
-JAG: Yeah, this way. Let's go.
-ERIC: Is this it?
-ADAM: It's this building.
-JOSEPH: Hey, spa-- this way.
-ERIC: There it is. There it is.
You see it?
-TUCKER: Yup.
Get it quick, dude.
They're catching up.
JAS:
Right there. Clue box.
Neck and neck.
Route Info.
"Search the outdoor
thermal baths
for a king
to receive your next clue."
KEOGHAN: Known as the thermal
bath capital of the world,
this is the city's
largest and most famous,
Széchenyi, which boasts
and is surrounded
by this stunning
neobaroque architecture.
Teams will
immerse themselves here
when they go in search of a king
somewhere in this pool.
Let's go.
Main entrance. Come on.
-"Search the..."
-"Outdoor thermal baths."
"...for a king
to receive your next clue."
"Enter through the main entrance
"and follow the marked path
to the changing area
-to put on your swimsuit."
-IZZY: Okay.
Route Info.
JAS:
Speed-walk.
Speed-walk.
Quick, quick, quick.
JAG:
Our clue said to find a king.
But what we realized is,
you know, there's a lot
of people in this thermal bath
enjoying the bath,
as we would have loved
to stay there longer.
JAS:
And suspiciously,
a lot of people were
-playing chess.
-JAG: Chess.
-ERIC:
Do you guys have a king for us?
-JAG: Are you the king?
-JAG: Come on.
-ERIC: No king?
JAG: Okay, king is
obviously from chess.
There's a king there, and we're
just trying to find the king.
JAS:
Okay.
We're looking for a king,
and we just saw a chessboard,
so we were hopeful
that that was it.
TUCKER:
Eric, there's one
in the middle, too.
All right.
Are you the king?
Thank you. Thank you.
-So much.
-Thank you.
-ERIC: Oh, no, that's it.
-TUCKER: That's the one.
He's got the board.
Oh, my God. Look in the water.
JAG:
Who do we hand this to?
NATALIE:
Oh, the king.
The king in the thingy.
-Is there a king in there?
-Maybe.
JOSEPH:
A king, yes.
Thank you so much.
NATALIE:
There's a king.
TUCKER: So the trick
with the chess piece--
like, there's always a clue
somewhere
when you get these things,
but there wasn't anything
written on the bottom,
and I just kind of, like,
twisted it in my hands,
and all of a sudden
I was like, "Oh, I got it."
KEOGHAN:
Teams will travel on foot
to Városligeti
to find their next clue.
Yeah, cool.
Can we have a king?
Yay.
-Thank you.
-We love you.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
Okay, there's a chessboard
right here.
Is that a king?
Do you mind if I take this?
PAIGE:
Can I take a look at this one?
Yeah, no,
there's nothing on these two.
TUCKER:
All right, let's go quick.
JAS:
Guys, Tucker, Eric,
who'd you guys hand this to?
-Did you guys hand this out?
-No.
-No.
Read the clue, read the clue.
TUCKER:
Dude, no one knows what it is.
No one knows how to open it.
-Where is everybody?
-We have to find a king.
-This was the king.
-This was the king,
but we need to find out
who to present it to.
"Can you unlock a kingdom?"
There. Oh, oh.
Oh, there it is.
There's our clue.
Is there a famous king statue
or king...?
-She doesn't know.
-In the city, we don't know
-anything like this. Sorry.
-Thank you.
-All right, thank you.
-Did they figure that out, man?
-Oh.
-Oh, my God. I got it.
"Make your way
to the Városligeti..."
Okay.
Do you have a king? [laughs]
-Thank you so much.
-You're so kind.
[train whistle blowing,
bell clanging]
[birds singing]
-TAYLOR: This way.
-KYLAND: Okay.
Thank you.
-KYLAND: Don't slip.
-TAYLOR: Don't slip.
Chels, they're going down.
KAT:
Here we are, okay?
TAYLOR:
Hello, Budapest.
-KYLAND: Go here?
-KRISTINE: Yellow building.
KYLAND:
There it is. You got it?
Let's do it.
"Search the outdoor
thermal baths for a king."
-Hi. Have fun, y'all.
-Thank you.
-Love y'all.
-Have a good time.
JAS:
Oh, there it is. Come on.
TUCKER:
There it is.
Straight ahead, Eric.
JAG:
Grab the clue.
Grab it.
[panting]
"The Fast Forward
is right here."
This is the world's
most famous puzzle,
the Rubik's Cube,
invented by Hungarian sculptor
and professor
Erno Rubik over 50 years ago.
The goal is simple.
All you got to do is twist
and turn the cube
until all sides display
a single color.
If both team members
can solve these ones
in seven and a half seconds
or less in the same attempt,
they'll get the Fast Forward,
allowing them to skip all tasks
and go directly to the Pit Stop.
Let's go in.
"Travel by taxi
to Ludovika Huszár Lovarda
to find your next clue."
It's also a Fast Forward.
-We're not gonna do
the Fast Forward.
-We're not gonna do it.
ERIC:
I mean, neither one of us has
solved a Rubik's Cube before,
but we just figured
because Jas and Jag ran off,
didn't even
attempt it, so we're like,
"Let's give it a try."
Hello. How are you?
Okay, so this is how
to use the timer.
To start the timer, you have
to put your hands on these
and wait until you see
-the green flash light.
-TUCKER: Okay.
When you see it, it starts,
and then you can start to solve.
And to stop, you just have
to put your hands back.
TUCKER:
I'm gonna just try to rip it.
I don't know how to solve
a Rubik's Cube generally.
So this is gonna take
a few practice goes,
and then we're just gonna try
to nail it as fast as we can.
-I think I already messed up.
-Yeah.
So I think if we just
keep practicing this,
we'll be able to get it.
JOSEPH:
Guys, come on.
Clue box. Let's go.
Sissy, come on.
JAG:
Taxi? No? No?
No, they got people. Oh.
Route Info. Fast Forward.
Not doing this. Put this away.
I don't know
if I feel confident enough
-in a Rubik's Cube.
-Yeah.
-No. Okay.
-Let's get a taxi.
Yes, yes, yes, yes.
Ah. Ah.
TUCKER:
All right,
you already messed up.
Your time's up.
Let's get another one.
-No, I didn't mess up. What?
-Time's up, though.
Yeah.
It's definitely harder
than it looks.
It's going
to take just some finessing.
Get your steps.
No, you have to have
a full orange block there.
-Yeah.
-That.
And then you do the right side
of the orange block.
Twice, up. And then flip it
to your left side.
ERIC:
Flip it to the left, this twice.
Oh, and then...
I was sort of going back
to wrestling practice
where you're drilling
a new move.
It's all about
not rushing through it,
getting the mechanics
down first,
and then you can really work
on speed and accuracy,
um, there afterwards.
Oh, close, close,
close, close, close.
We'll get it. It's just gonna
take us a little bit
to get there.
JAS:
Taxi. Taxi.
Taxi. Taxi. I don't know
if they can even stop here.
In the trunk.
Hello...
[speaks indistinctly] Budapest.
JOSEPH:
Yes.
ADAM:
Please hurry.
Taxi. Taxi.
JAG:
No.
NATALIE:
Please? Please?
[gasps]
Thank you.
-Fast Forward.
-And a Fast Forward.
-We're...
They've already gone for it.
-Yup.
-Thank you.
-Thank you so much, sir.
Thank you. Thank you.
The taxis are coming
from somewhere
and they're not stopping.
PAIGE:
Thank you.
Well, that didn't work well.
The clue said "Travel by taxi."
Otherwise I would just run.
All right.
[mutters]:
One, two...
This thing...
-Done. Whoo!
-Whoo!
-Let's go.
-Let's go, baby.
ERIC:
What else do we need to do?
-Read the Fast Forward.
-[groans]
"Both of you must solve it..."
Ooh. All right.
"...within the same attempt."
All right, cool, cool.
-Cool, cool, cool, cool.
-All righty.
New cubes, please.
JACK:
We're looking for a king.
CHELSIE:
Okay, quickly, quickly, quickly.
Just look, just look.
We're looking for a king.
JACK:
Look in the water,
if he's sitting in the water.
TAYLOR:
They were
playing chess over there.
-KYLAND: Yes.
-TAYLOR: Yup. Let's go.
Let's go.
KYLAND: We're looking for
the king, looking for a clue.
-KYLAND: Please.
-TAYLOR: Nice.
KYLAND:
Oh, beautiful.
RUBINA:
They're playing chess.
KAT:
Alex, are you sure?
CHELSIE:
They got it, so it's in here.
-Checkmate.
-[laughs]
-There you go.
-ALEX: Thank you, sir.
CHELSIE:
Clue, sir?
-Thank you so much.
-Thank you, sir.
Appreciate it. Thank you.
[car horn toots]
JAS:
Taxi. Taxi.
Nope.
They got to see me.
[Eric sighs]
-8.3. I'm off.
-All right.
Excuse me. No? Oh.
-No. He said no.
-Let's head across here.
Done.
Oh, I missed by .1.
Maybe we're not
waving it correctly.
How do you wave down a taxi?
Do you go like this?
We were ahead
of all the other teams,
but Hannah and Simone got
in a taxi,
Natalie and Stephanie got
in a taxi.
So we're not having any luck.
But hopefully, we can get
in a taxi here shortly.
I think I did it
too many times again. Yup. God.
All right, just go slow,
you know?
JAG:
So many taxis going past us.
-JAS: Empty taxis,
dozens of times.
-Empty taxis. No one's in there.
We're waving them,
trying to wave them down.
We were trying
to do anything to stop them
and take these taxis,
but no one was
stopping for us,
and we couldn't figure out why.
We lost a lot of time.
-We're getting cooked.
-Yeah.
JAG:
Taxi, taxi, taxi.
JAS:
Jaga, put on your hood.
-Taxi?
-Taxi?
-Got it.
-Let's go.
TUCKER:
Yes.
Let's go, baby. Done.
-Ah!
-Let's go.
TUCKER:
It's huge.
-Thank you. Thank you.
-Thank you so much, sir.
BOTH: "Race to the Pit Stop.
Make your way to..."
ERIC: "...Várkert Bazár and
search for Phil on the mat."
BOTH: "The last team to check in
will be eliminated."
Ooh, baby.
TUCKER:
Thank you, guys.
That was wicked fun.
JAS:
Please, taxi?
Taxi? Yes, come on.
Thank you. Thank you.
Do you know how to get to
Ludovika Huszár Lovarda? Yes?
JAS:
So many taxis passed by us.
As soon as we put our hood on...
-Oh, yeah.
-...we found a taxi
shortly after.
This happens to us,
where people will avoid us,
but this nice gentleman did stop
for us, and it's...
We're very grateful for him.
KYLAND:
Route Info.
-Fast Forward.
That's thinking...
-[gasps]
-They already went for it.
-Let's go.
"Travel by taxi
to Ludovika Huszár..."
"...Lovarda
to find your next clue."
-Let's find a taxi.
-Yeah, we all know
what taxis look like.
-Oh, yellow.
-There's a taxi.
There we go. All right.
-JACK:
Let's go down there, Chels.
-CHELSIE: Okay.
JACK:
Right here.
This isn't it.
-We got to enter another way.
-Damn.
So it must be up top.
Taxi? Can we...
Yes. Thank you.
JACK:
I'm thinking it's that building.
-Let's go. Come on.
-Oh, this is frustrating.
JACK:
Right here, Chels.
-Taxi. Hi.
-MAN: Hi.
TAYLOR:
Kat and Alex has
gotten that one.
KYLAND:
There's another one
in front of it.
-Good luck, guys. See you there.
-ALEX: Later.
-KAT: See you.
Route Info.
KYLAND:
Ludovika Huszár?
ADAM:
It says go to the main gate.
This right here to the left?
-Thank you, sir.
-Thank you.
JOSEPH: "When you arrive,
enter through the main gate."
ADAM:
Joseph, let's show them
the address.
JOSEPH:
Yeah.
Next door.
-Okay, thank you.
-Thank you.
So this isn't it. He dropped us
off in the wrong spot.
Maybe that's the main gate?
-Okay, I think this is it.
-Ludovika Huszár.
Lovarda. Thank you, sir.
Ludovika? Yeah, this is it.
Thank you...
NATALIE:
Okay. Quick, quick, quick.
How many clues? All right.
-Roadblock.
-"Who thinks they can coach?"
KEOGHAN:
Long before cowboys roamed
the American West,
Hungarian csikós worked
with horses as herdsmen.
Today, these highly skilled
horsemen not only show off
their impressive
equestrian skills on the job,
but also
at competitions like this.
This Roadblock requires teams
to steer a coach
with a pair of horses
around a figure-eight course
without knocking over any cones
or ba*ls in 45 seconds or less
to get a clue.
-You got this. You got this.
-I can do it.
There might be some horses.
I love animals so much.
So I was like, "Let me do this."
Nat, this is so amazing!
NATALIE:
Oh, my God, I'm gonna cry!
STEPHANIE:
Nat, you got this.
-Breathe. Okay?
-Okay.
My name is Kristóf.
I gonna show you
how to drive horses.
Okay, okay.
You got to, like,
say a little word.
Giddyap or whatever.
Then to go to the left,
you had to pull your left hand.
To go to the right, you had
to pull your right hand.
To stop them,
you had to pull back.
And forward, you just
had to loosen the slack.
And then
I was ready to rock and roll.
-You good?
-Yes, sir.
-Thank you.
-Let's go.
You want to go back on
the street or do you want to...
-I don't see anyone here.
-check it out real quick?
I also don't see any teams, and
they should be right behind us.
-IZZY: You good?
-Got everything? Yeah.
All right, they're good.
Let's go.
-Are you gonna coach?
-Yeah, I'm gonna coach.
Okay.
MAN:
The course is ready.
-Are you ready?
-Yes.
Three, two, one.
Go.
STEPHANIE:
Nat, breathe and relax.
You're in control of the horses.
You got this, Nat.
You got this, Nat. Come on.
MAN:
One, okay.
STEPHANIE:
You're in control.
Oh.
MAN:
She lost the course, so
-this is not right.
-STEPHANIE: It's okay.
Nat, you're in control.
Let's go.
-Technically wrong. Try again.
-Yes, sir.
JOSEPH:
She sent us the wrong way.
He sent us the wrong way.
ADAM: Joseph, that's
the first building we were at.
JOSEPH:
I know.
SIMONE: All right, Hannah,
you can take this backpack.
-Okay.
-Here, here. Let's go.
Excuse me?
I'm sorry. We're back.
-I can coach. I can coach.
-Simone's gonna coach. Okay.
If there are real horses
in there, I'm really excited.
-I actually rode horses
as a kid.
-Oh.
-Um, I had a horse
named Cookie...
-Really?
um, who had an overbite,
and I loved him.
And I miss riding horses,
so if this is real,
I'm very, very excited.
-Go.
-STEPHANIE: Come on, Nat.
Come on, Nat.
NATALIE:
Learning the course,
being observant, and also
having control of the horses
and respecting them
is gonna be really important.
-Two. Okay.
-STEPHANIE: Keep at it.
There you go.
NATALIE: So, I just made sure
to... [speaks foreign language]
open my eyes
and, uh, follow the course.
-MAN: Five. Okay.
-Nat, keep going.
-Okay.
-Come on, Nat.
-MAN: Six is good.
-STEPHANIE: Send it.
-Send it.
-MAN: Seven, okay.
And now the finish line.
NATALIE:
Did we do it?
-[sighs]
-MAN: Okay.
Congratulations.
-This is a clear round.
-[whoops]
-MAN: This is your clue...
-Okay.
-for the next step.
-Okay. Thank you.
Good job, Nat.
Route Info.
Harry Houdini, the world-famous
magician and escape artist,
was born here in Budapest.
An exclusive collection
of his artifacts are on display
here at The House of Houdini,
where teams will find these
chained and locked wooden cases.
They'll then need to figure out
how to unlock one of them
to get their next clue.
We got to go. Come on.
JAG:
Oh, right here, right here.
-Good. Uh...
-Good, good, good. Thank you.
-Thank you so much.
-Here you go. Here you go.
-It was down this street, right?
-Yeah.
-You do it. Go. Let's go.
-I'll do it.
-I think I can coach.
-Yup.
ADAM:
[exhales] Hold on, Justin.
-[Adam panting]
-It's this.
-It's up here to the right?
-Yes.
JOSEPH:
"Who thinks they can coach?"
-You want to do it? All right.
-I'll do it.
PAIGE:
She's perfect for this.
All she wanted
to do on this race was
hang out with some horses.
Go.
-Let's go.
-PAIGE:
She's never driven a coach,
but she grew up riding horses.
She is a horse whisperer.
Oh!
-Try again.
-Sorry, horsies.
Three, two, one, go.
SIMONE: The clue involved
something about coaching.
As someone
who does dance choreography
and has led a team before,
maybe it's not too much
out of my wheelhouse.
Good job, Simone. It's okay.
-You didn't cross
the starting point.
-Oh.
-TUCKER: There he is!
-Phil, we're coming for you!
TUCKER:
Phil!
We're coming, Phil!
Welcome to Budapest.
It's absolutely gorgeous.
Stunning view, a stunning dress.
Tucker and Eric took
the Fast Forward.
I am pleased to tell you
that you are team number one.
-Yeah! Let's go!
-Ah.
-Finally.
-Ah.
I do have some good news
for you.
As the winners
of this leg of the race,
you have won OneKeyCash
from Expedia,
which you can use
for a trip for two to...
La Paz, Bolivia.
-Wow!
-Wow! [laughs]
KEOGHAN:
Expedia has designed
a recommended,
five-night unique experience
with an overnight trip
to Uyuni Flats,
a mountain bike ride on
the world's most dangerous road,
a La Paz City tour and a guided
hike to Charquini Mountain.
-Yes!
-Yeah!
ERIC: We can't get sloppy.
We can't get c*ck.
I think we had our sort of
overexcited mistakes
in previous legs, so,
we're hoping to continue
learning from those and not let
first place, you know, lead us
-to resting on our laurels.
-TUCKER: Yeah.
-Let's just play smart.
-House of Houdini.
NATALIE:
Okay. "Next to
locked up tightly
on the main stage."
Main stage, go find it?
Okay, okay, ready?
"You must open all the locks
before opening the box."
STEPHANIE:
Here, we'll switch.
NATALIE:
And then, this key
must open the next key.
But open that, open the box.
STEPHANIE:
We had these wooden boxes,
and they're all chained up
with different locks.
So you just kind of had
to grab the right keys
to each lock
and just unlock it all.
Oh, this one,
this one, this one.
NATALIE:
Great job.
You're so good at this.
STEPHANIE:
I opened the box. I was like,
"All right,
what would Houdini do?"
-It's okay... Great.
-STEPHANIE: Here we go.
-Oh. [whoops]
-Aah! [exclaiming]
Come on, read the clue.
Read the clue.
Detour. "Juggling Act
or Balancing Act."
Humans have been
entertaining each other
since the beginning of time.
We love to marvel at those
who appear to be performing
superhuman feats.
The simple act of juggling
has stood the test of time
and continues to draw a crowd
whenever it's performed.
The world record
with a pair of jugglers
is 18 rings, for a total
of 19 passes between them.
This Detour requires teams
to juggle five rings.
If they can
keep these rings suspended
for at least ten seconds,
they'll get a clue.
Some ofAmazing Race fans'
favorite moments have come
from dancing for a clue.
This traditional Hungarian dance
has the potential
to be another hit
when teams attempt
to perform
a choreographed routine
with these highly-skilled,
light-footed folk dancers.
If they can get through the
routine without spilling a drop,
they'll get a clue.
Juggling?
What does juggling mean?
Juggling is, like,
when you do the...
like, when you throw the ba*ls
up in the air.
You can do more
than one at a time.
And what do rings mean?
So are we juggling rings?
Probably. We're probably
juggling rings like this.
NATALIE:
I think we should
learn to dance.
-Okay, let's go dance.
Let's go, let's go.
-Okay.
-[sighs]
-Come on.
We can change it, right?
JAS: Come on, come on,
come on, come on.
MAN:
Two, okay. Three.
-Oh.
-MAN: Three down.
Dude, this is gonna equalize
everyone coming.
ALEX:
Thank you so much, sir.
-Thank you.
-KAT: I found it.
-Oh. Oh.
Oh, my God. Wait. What?
There's a couple more
than we thought there would be.
Oh, we are in this.
-It's right here, up here.
Yes, yes, yes.
-Yes, yes, yes.
KRISTINE:
Good, good, good. Yes, yes, yes.
RUBINA:
Yes, there's the clue.
I think you can coach
better than me.
-Okay, let's go for it.
-All right.
-I think I can coach.
-I think you can coach.
Okay, me.
Y'all thought
y'all weren't gonna see us.
[screaming and laughing]
Other teams just got here.
We lost our lead.
HANNAH: We haven't seen some
of those teams
since the very first leg
of the race.
And you know,
now they're here,
and we've just lost our lead.
So now we have no more cushion.
Simone and I have
to work that much harder
to make sure
that we stay in this race.
Three, two, one. Go.
[makes kissing sound]
PAIGE:
Joseph is so pure of heart
that the horses
are so comfortable
that they don't want to move.
ADAM:
He was better as the horse
in Prague than he is here.
Oh, my God, this is hard.
Poor horses.
Give me a sugar cube.
ADAM: Uh-oh. Uh-oh.
-I've never seen a dying man.
-Oh, dear.
MAN:
Stop, stop, stop. The groom has
to have
because we break the stride.
-Guys, good luck with you guys.
-[Adam stammers]
It was an amazing opportunity.
I love all of you.
I can't believe I got to compete
with all of you guys.
[quiet laughter]
-Can I get the demonstration
again?
-Sure.
STEPHANIE:
Is this it?
-Yeah. Thank you.
-NATALIE: Thank you.
-STEPHANIE: Oh, hello!
-Hi!
NATALIE:
"Choose an available
dance instructor."
-We'll choose you. Okay.
-All right.
-So, come on up.
-Thank you.
You are gonna get
to see the dance performance
-that you are gonna learn.
-Okay.
[lively, upbeat music playing]
STEPHANIE:
Oh, my God.
This is awesome.
-Oh, this is...
-This is really hard.
So, that's the dance.
So, let's go.
NATALIE:
We both looked at each other.
We're like...
-Heck, no. This is...
-I was like,
"Even I'm challenged."
This is the changing room.
This is Stephanie.
STEPHANIE:
I had to wear a dress.
I felt a little funny in it,
but I had
to respect the culture.
I haven't worn a, uh... dress
since I was 18, prom.
I'm 36 now.
NATALIE:
Mom's gonna love
that you wore a dress.
She's gonna be like, "Yes."
These are our props.
You are gonna have a stick
and you're gonna have a bottle.
Feel free to choose.
Yeah, you're gonna get it.
NATALIE:
I was a professional dancer.
I've even danced
with Lenny Kravitz,
so I've done some cool stuff.
Let me do the balancing
of the bottle on my head.
-One, two, three, four, five.
-Oh.
It's okay.
I just hope
Stephi gets the choreography.
-One, two, three. One, two.
-Oh, wait, wait. Wait.
Steph's not a dancer.
-One, two, three.
-Aah.
Take your time learning it
till you get it, okay?
-Right up there. Thank you.
-Yeah.
-Square?
-Thank you. Thank you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Oh, square, got it.
TAYLOR: You think
it'll be all the way down here?
-KYLAND: Yeah.
-TAYLOR: Hold on.
-KYLAND: Yes.
-"Enter through the main gate."
Does this look
like a main gate? No.
I'm looking
for a main gate, babe.
TAYLOR:
Okay. I don't think this is it.
-KYLAND: You're doing great.
-What's this address?
KYLAND:
You don't see anything
in there, right?
-TAYLOR: No.
-That's okay. That's all right.
Babe, let's keep moving.
[bell rings]
Go, Simone.
SIMONE: My first time
doing this Roadblock,
it definitely wasn't
what I expected.
And I've never
ridden a horse before,
but that's something that
we're working on in the race,
is me being
a lot more confident.
You're great, horsies.
Keep it up!
MAN:
And three.
Three... down.
Dang it, Simone.
[bell rings]
IZZY: I just kept
telling myself, like,
"The horses can feel it,
the horses can feel it.
"I need them on my side.
I need to stay calm for them."
MAN:
Two is okay.
PAIGE:
Oh, my God.
-MAN: Three.
-PAIGE: Hope she gets this.
MAN:
Three is good. Four.
-Four is clear.
-JAS [quietly]: Let's go.
Izzy's flying.
MAN:
Five is also okay.
PAIGE:
Take your time.
MAN:
Six is good.
PAIGE:
Take your time. Yes.
MAN: And the seven is good.
Finish line.
PAIGE:
I think she got it.
I think she got it.
So congratulations.
-PAIGE: Yay.
-Ah. Thank you so much.
-KYLAND: What is it called?
-Not this.
Address? No?
I'm feeling
it's at that corner.
[bell rings]
ALEX:
Right now, I'm just hoping
to get this done
as quickly as possible.
I do not have any experience
with horses at all.
MAN: Here. Here. You stop here.
-[Jas mutters]
-I would have done better
than he did.
-ADAM: Why did he take this one?
-'Cause it said "coach"
and I thought
it was gonna be sports.
Yeah, I thought so, too.
-You want to do it?
-All right, I'll do it.
He's been coaching me
the whole time. Open it.
Push, push, push, push.
You're k*lling it.
TAYLOR:
This is just not the position
that either of us want to be in.
And I think
we were both thinking,
"Is this where we're gonna have
to get rid of our Express Pass?"
KYLAND:
You think on our right
or our left, babe?
TAYLOR:
I don't know. Oh, my God.
KYLAND:
Ludovika Huszár?
MAN: You have to go in the park,
then left.
KYLAND:
Okay.
-Then left.
-Thank you. Thank you.
-Thank you.
TAYLOR:
Ludovika Huszár Lordova,
which is right here.
KYLAND:
We had some mistakes
that kind of set us back,
but we are a top-three team.
We got this.
-We're about to do this.
-We got this.
-You do it.
-All right, catch your breath.
I'm gonna do the Roadblock.
KRISTÓF:
You give a little bit
of the reins,
-and they start.
-Okay.
This is so straightforward.
Why not go over the top?
And I'm, like,
writing this down,
making sure I'm understanding
every little separate
little detail, and then, we can
probably catch up and move
to the front of the pack.
-And never yell at the horse.
-Never yells. Yup.
MAN:
One is okay.
JAG:
It was actually more challenging
than I thought it was gonna be.
These obstacles
were pretty narrow.
We have commercial
driver's licenses,
and so we know
how to drive semitrucks.
So I was just trying
to navigate this horse
as if it was a semitruck,
make really wide turns
so I don't hit the cones.
MAN:
Five is... also okay.
HANNAH:
He's k*lling it.
-Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
-It's got to be it.
MAN:
Six is good.
JAG: I was really trying
to go as fast as I could.
I swear,
I thought I was drifting.
MAN:
Good.
And the finish line, also good.
-Congratulations. You finished.
-JAS: Let's go.
Thank you so much. Thank you.
NATALIE:
Are you ready, Stephanie?
-Let's try it.
-All right.
Since I was a dancer,
I can count in my sleep.
Counting was the easy part,
so I knew
I had to take lead.
Let's go.
[lively, upbeat music playing]
I messed up.
-No.
-Sorry.
Steph nailed it, I messed up.
I got a little bit nervous.
STEPHANIE:
You also had to balance
a bottle on your head.
Okay.
♪
STEPHANIE:
So it's...
The count for me was
a little challenging.
Like, getting it on the beat.
Okay, we're gonna have
to start over.
We... We're gonna get it.
We just need one more practice.
We got this.
JAG:
Let's just get on that...
on a train. We'll be closer.
-I'd rather get on a train...
-Yeah, we're gonna get into...
JAG:
...and run there if we have to.
I don't give a damn.
We're facing unique challenges
and obstacles
because of who we are
and how we look
and how others might
perceive us in this world.
And so,
yeah, we decided
to just take the metro.
JAS:
Anyone that wears
a turban stands out in a crowd.
In Sikhism, if you're ever in
a situation where you need help,
you can turn, and if you find
someone who wears a turban,
you can go to them
and ask them for help.
-Right here.
-M3.
JAG:
We're choosing to take
the trains instead of the taxi.
We'd rather just make forward
and slow progress
than to make no progress
waiting for a taxi.
I feel confident
in our running skills,
and we'll run
and find this place.
-We're gonna run.
-We're ready to run.
PAIGE:
Thank you so much.
We want to go
to the main stage.
Give me the last key.
IZZY:
Okay.
PAIGE:
Okay, is it a false bottom?
This is Houdini.
-IZZY: Is that it?
-Yeah. There we go.
There it is.
There it is. There it is.
[laughs]
We really like puzzles, okay?
Oh. Detour.
It's not gonna be pretty,
-but we're gonna do the steps.
-Okay.
MAN:
Number one...
-is good.
-Come on, you got this.
Number two is... down.
Oh, my gosh.
MAN:
Number one is okay.
RUBINA: Be the horse.
Think like the horse.
-Be one with the horse.
-Be one with the horse.
No!
MAN: Two is down.
-CHELSIE: Oh, oh.
-MAN: Completely lost.
Completely lost.
TAYLOR:
That's okay, Jack.
RUBINA:
That's okay. It's his first try.
JOSEPH: I can barely walk
in a straight line.
How am I supposed
to make a horse do it?
So, I'm going to figure out
a way to get it done,
and hopefully, be on our way.
ADAM:
Of course,
when Taylor Hale shows up,
-Joseph gets to action.
-[others clamoring]
TAYLOR: Nice. He said,
"I got to stunt on my ex.
Wait a minute now."
MAN: Number one, down.
-Can't believe it.
-Hits the first cone.
[laughter]
MAN:
Number two, okay.
-Number three...
-sh**t, sh**t, sh**t, sh**t.
MAN: ...down.
TAYLOR:
Come on, Kyland.
KYLAND: 45 seconds sounds like
it's a really tight timeline,
'cause we have people that have
tried six, seven times.
Let's go. Let's go.
If they're doing
that many times, I feel like
we may want to consider
using the Express Pass
if I don't get it, if, like,
three of these teams leave.
But I feel like
it's worth sticking it out,
trying it a couple of times.
You got it, baby.
KYLAND: I just got
to learn the course
and try my best.
TAYLOR: Did you do it in time?
Did you do it in time?
Right here, Nick?
Oh, oh. We there?
TAYLOR: Did you do it in time?
Do he it in time?
MAN:
Going to the finish line.
KYLAND: Come on, babies.
Come on, babies.
You guys got it.
He was so slow.
I don't think he did it.
But that was amazing.
PAIGE:
Yeah.
-IZZY: Yeah, this is it. Okay.
-PAIGE: Yeah.
-IZZY: Yeah, this is right.
-PAIGE: Yup. [laughs]
-Will you be our instructor?
Thank you.
-Okay, thank you.
[lively, energetic music]
Two, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.
MAN:
Thank you so much. Okay.
-I think...
-Good?
...maybe.
-Yes. Yes. Thank you.
-Oh. We love you guys.
-Oh, my God.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
-Thanks.
-Thank you.
-We love you!
I'm so proud of you.
"Race to the Pit Stop."
KEOGHAN:
Buda Castle here in Budapest,
also known as the Royal Palace,
was once the home of kings,
and will now serve
as the fourth Pit Stop
on this European adventure.
The last team to check in here
will be eliminated.
-[whoops]
-Thank you.
WOMAN:
So these are
-the things.
-IZZY: Oh, it's heavy.
She's a natural.
Perfect.
JAS:
Here's a key. Nice and easy.
Good. Pull it out.
There you are.
Right there.
Got the clue on it.
Okay.
Okay. Detour.
I don't know how to juggle.
For ten seconds?
I think it'll be tough.
-Yes, it will.
-Okay. Okay.
We're gonna
be doing Balancing Act.
ADAM: Joseph was
running over start signs,
going the wrong way
on the track,
all this lollygagging,
until Ms. Taylor Hale walks in.
And what do you see?
Joseph goes
from running over things
to being a professional
horse racer.
Taylor lives on.
what can I say?
MAN:
Okay.
-Congratulations.
-Yes. [laughs]
[cheering]
-It was a nice round?
-Yes, it was. Thank you.
KYLAND: First go,
we didn't knock over anything.
The horses feel good to control.
I just need to go faster.
I feel.... I don't know.
I feel like I can do it.
Good work, babies. Good work.
MAN:
Five is good.
-Let's go. Come on. Come on.
-MAN: Six also is good.
Let's go, babies. Let's go.
-MAN: The seven.
-Come on, babies.
-MAN: Seven okay.
-Come on, babies.
MAN:
And the finish line.
KYLAND: Come on, babies.
Come on, babies.
MAN:
Okay.
-He's got it.
-Yes.
-MAN: That was good.
Three round in time.
-Congratulations.
-Thank you.
He beasted through this.
I'm literally...
-We got there in last,
and we left in sixth.
-Got there last.
KYLAND:
And that felt really good.
TAYLOR:
All because of you.
-Huge.
-Biggest breath of relief.
-Let's run-read. Yeah.
-Run-read.
-"Vas es..."
-Yes.
-Oh, we'll take you.
-Okay. We'll take you.
-Sure. Come.
-Let's go. Let's do this.
-One, two, three.
-Oh, no. Oh, no.
-One, two, three. Okay.
-Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay.
-Okay.
One, two, three.
Jump, kick, jump, kick.
-One, two, three.
One, two, three.
-JAG: Oh. Hey, hey.
One, two, three.
-I'm gonna do this one.
-Okay.
Da. Dee, dee, da. Good job.
-That's all the way on?
-JAG: It's okay. It's okay.
It's harder with this. Okay.
It's slippery on my head.
JOSEPH:
"You must
open all the locks
before opening the box."
Joseph, I got one.
Got one.
JOSEPH:
How did you get that one to...
-This got jammed inside.
-ADAM: Oh.
JOSEPH:
Excuse me?
-There's a broken...
-We have a broken key.
The key's in the lock hole.
-Thank you. Thank you.
-Oh, my God.
-Oh, my gosh.
-He's amazing.
All right,
House of Houdini, baby.
-TAYLOR: House of Houdini.
-It says find our next clue.
Oh, someone's here.
-KYLAND: [gasps] Hey, guys!
-ADAM: Hey.
-JOSEPH: Hey.
TAYLOR:
As we walk inside
the House of Houdini,
there's Joseph and Adam.
They broke their key.
I mean...
Obviously, look at the g*ns.
Look at the g*ns on those dudes.
-They're swole.
-They're not
popcorn muscles, people.
JOSEPH:
Our box has been taken
-to see what they can do.
-KYLAND: Okay.
-Undo all the locks.
-TAYLOR: Undo all the locks.
KYLAND:
All right, House of Houdini
feels like a magic trick.
ADAM:
We see Taylor and Kyland
putting the box in the light,
putting the locks back on it,
trying everything
in the book
to see where this clue is,
until finally, there's a secret
door at the bottom of the box,
and that's where
they see where the clue is.
-Ah.
-There you go. Hey, right here.
-Ready?
-TAYLOR: Yup.
BOTH:
Detour.
-We're gonna do Juggling Act.
-Juggling Act.
Okay, we are good
to start again.
We just got our key back
after my popcorn muscles
broke one of the locks.
We were able
to get a replacement lock.
We got it open, so push.
-ADAM: Hold on. Open the box.
-Yo.
-We're gonna juggle
-We think we can juggle.
because we think
ten seconds is enough time
that we can sustain
a juggling act.
Joseph doesn't know gentle.
These are gentle fingers.
KAT:
Come on Alex. You got this.
-MAN: Six is good.
-KAT: [whoops] That's my cowboy!
MAN:
Seven.
Seven is still on,
but it was moving.
And now the team is fine.
-He might have gotten it.
MAN: You made a clean round.
-Thank you so much!
-So this is the clue
for the next one.
Thank you, sir.
Thank you so much.
RUBINA: Yes, good pace.
good pace, Pulan. Yes.
MAN:
Three is okay. She was lucky.
RUBINA: Steer it, steer it.
You got it, you got it.
MAN: But four is down.
-Let's go. come on.
-You got this, Jack.
Thank you. You got it.
KRISTINE:
I just need to think ahead
when I need to make a turn
so that I have enough time,
and I'm not cutting it close.
Right now,
there's two other teams here--
Jack and Simone, so,
I'm banking
on making it on the next one,
and then we'll be good.
-CHELSIE: Wow, wow, wow, wow.
-RUBINA: Keep that up.
-Looking great. Keep that up.
-CHELSIE: Let's go. Let's go.
RUBINA:
Keep that up. Keep that up.
-Yup. Yes. Keep that up.
-CHELSIE: Go. Go. Yes.
They wouldn't say yes.
Yeah? Ah, yes, Dad.
Come on, keep it up, Dad.
Let's go, horses!
[laughs, screams]
Go, go, go!
Give it to him!
-Ah, I think he got it.
Did get it?
-MAN: You are in time.
-Thank you. Appreciate it.
-Good.
-Thank you, sir. Yes.
-Good luck. Good luck.
MAN:
Five is good.
SIMONE: I would be lying if
I said that it wasn't stressful
to see all of the teams leave.
It's all just
about finishing strong.
MAN:
Seven is also okay, and now
-to the finish line.
-SIMONE: Horsies, keep on going.
[Simone clicks to horses]
No, no, no. No.
Horsies, keep on going.
Oh, my God. So close.
MAN:
Okay, finish line.
This is crushing me.
MAN:
One is okay.
SIMONE: I made it right
to the finish line, but
the horses stopped.
Keep going, horses.
I realized
that instead of pulling
on the reins, I should be
giving into the reins,
so then the horse
has enough room to go,
rather than me just pulling it
back, and it jogging in place.
Simone has this.
She has this.
She has the speed.
MAN:
Seven and the finish line.
And crossed and clear round.
Clear round in time.
-Oh, my God!
-You did it. You did it.
Oh, my God. Thank you so much.
HANNAH:
I'll meet you out there!
I'll meet you out there.
Good luck, Rubina!
Good luck, Rubina!
Oh.
-All right, Hannah,
let's make a move on it.
-Okay.
RUBINA: It's never over
until it's really over,
till you hit the mat, and
Phil says, "Ooh, you're out."
No, we're still in it. We're
still in it. We're still in it.
We're still in it, Pulan.
We're still in this.
You got this.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah!
-MAN: Three is good.
RUBINA:
You got it. You got it.
Let's keep it going.
Let's keep it going.
MAN:
Four, okay.
RUBINA: Keep it going.
Good job, horsies.
Good job, horsies.
Good job, Pulan.
MAN:
Five, five, five. Good.
RUBINA:
Oh, I'm sweating,
and it's freezing cold,
and that is...
[sniffs] stress. [laughs]
-MAN: Seven is okay.
-RUBINA: Yeah. Come on.
Please let this be it.
Come on. Come on. Come on.
Please, please, please,
please, please.
MAN:
You have a clean round
-and in time.
-Yeah? Yay!
Thank you so much.
Yes, we're not too far behind.
We got this.
Bye!
"Fovárosi Nagy..." Yes.
-TAYLOR: Amazing. Yay.
-KYLAND: We're here. Okay.
-[Taylor sings circus fanfare]
-KYLAND: Hello.
Who's the best teacher?
-Oh, my gosh.
-KYLAND: Oh, my gosh.
All right, let's do it.
You ready?
-JOSEPH: Thank you.
-ADAM: Thank you.
Let's go.
-ADAM: Hello.
-ALL: Hello.
JOSEPH:
Who's the best juggler?
Please. Thank you. [laughs]
-Oh, you got this.
-I got this.
ADAM:
Come on, Joseph.
"You must juggle five rings
for ten seconds
to receive your clues."
-You're a little bit high.
-I'm too high?
-Oh, yes.
-TAYLOR: Okay.
-KYLAND: Okay.
You pass, you throw.
Right to left.
-Yes.
-Left to right.
No.
And... you... each other.
-Ready?
-Yeah.
Here we go.
MAN:
Yeah.
-[Taylor whoops]
-Can you throw...
Yeah, there you go.
...more to my left side?
TAYLOR:
They only started
with one ring per person.
-One, two.
-Two. Ah.
-Okay?
-Okay.
-MAN: Okay.
-Nice, baby.
-TAYLOR: Yeah.
-Hey.
-Yeah, look at us.
KYLAND:
Now we have three rings
we're passing between us.
-In a circle.
-Easy.
-Yeah.
-TAYLOR: Look at this.
-Good, good.
-Four.
TAYLOR:
So now we got a rhythm
of four.
[whoops]
Oh, I'm sorry.
-Higher, higher, higher.
-That was all me.
ADAM:
I'm throwing this one
while you're passing,
while you're throwing.
So throwing twice.
Okay, okay, let's go quick.
So... Oh.
ADAM:
You need to throw that one
as you're passing.
So, throw one.
-Aah.
-Oh, no, no.
ADAM:
You just got to throw it
to my left hand.
-Boom. That was too far.
-Left hand.
Pass it to me to my left hand.
JOSEPH:
It was a little
upsetting to see
how quickly and talented
Taylor and Kyland were just able
to get the juggling quick.
Oh, you're k*lling it, babe.
-Hey!
-Oh, my bad.
JOSEPH:
And Adam and I...
Yeah. Sorry.
Okay, okay.
We just couldn't click.
You have to throw it
to my left hand.
I'm gonna catch it with
my right, and it's gonna end it.
NATALIE:
Go, don't give up!
-Run!
-Phil!
[whoops, sighs]
Natalie and Stephanie,
I'm pleased to tell you
-you are team number two.
-Yes.
-Yes.
JACK:
All right, let's go.
House of Houdini?
It's got a slide.
-Here we go.
-Perfect.
Oh, perfect.
House of Houdini's right here,
right here.
-Should I do that one?
-I say you do the balance.
-I'll do the Balancing Act.
-Yeah.
It's in here?
RUBINA: I see it.
House of Houdini.
-KRISTINE: Okay.
-You see it?
-Yeah, I see it on the left.
Oh, yeah, let's get that taxi.
Okay, yeah,
they're getting out. Yup.
-Good job, guys. Good job, guys.
-Good job.
RUBINA:
Let's go.
Detour.
We're gonna do
the Balancing Act.
-Balancing Act.
-Balancing Act.
-KAT: Hey.
-CHELSIE: Hey, guys.
We have to go.
KAT:
We just lost so much time.
I'm allowed to freak out if
we are in danger of going home.
ALEX:
All right.
I mean, our whole lead
that we've been working
on getting is...
not there anymore.
No, there's got to be something,
like, hidden in here.
-Hidden?
-Why can't we figure this out?
-HANNAH: Okay.
-I feel like...
-Is it in here? Oh, my gosh.
-Oh, gosh. Okay.
We're so stupid.
"Learn the steps
to a Hungarian folk dance
"and perform the right steps
on the main stage
-to receive your next clue."
We're doing that.
-Okay.
Both of us are dancers.
We both trained
in ballet, tap, jazz,
contemporary, lyrical, hip-hop.
That is the only thing
that can save us
at this point.
If this was any leg
for Simone and I
to be last place in...
-It's at the dance challenge.
-Yes.
It's one where we can actually
lap all of these teams.
JAS:
Okay, we're gonna go try it.
So we can hear the music.
Do I know it? No.
JAG: It just gets shaky
at the end, so...
-Let's do it one more time.
-Okay.
PAIGE:
And then we'll go.
[woman hums along
with the music]
[lively, upbeat music playing]
Oh.
-Oh.
-I don't know what's
going on there with...
We did not do that.
[laughing]
-Maybe one more time.
-JAS: Yeah.
-JAG: Okay.
-Okay?
-We'll be back.
BOTH:
Did we forget some steps?
-No.
-They were doing
something different.
-Just a little bit slower.
-JAG: Okay.
-Suit up, baby. Let's go.
-[laughs]
JACK:
This it? To the left?
-Okay.
-CHELSIE: Perfect. Thank you.
CHELSIE:
♪ A time to dance.♪
-Pick an instructor.
-I'll take her.
-All right. Come on up.
-[laughter]
[lively, upbeat music playing]
-[claps]
-MAN: I like it. Very good.
-Maybe I can give you...
-PAIGE: Yes.
-Yes, you can.
-Thank you so much.
-Thank you so much.
-Congratulations.
I'm gonna give you a hug.
I didn't think
I would do that on this race,
but I'm gonna give her a hug.
-Thank you so much.
-Thank you so much.
CHELSIE:
Rubina was right behind us,
and we don't know
where Hannah and her sister are.
-Really?
-CHELSIE: Yes.
-PAIGE: Good luck, guys.
-Good job. Good job.
-Good job. Good job.
-Good job.
-IZZY: Oh, baby.
-See? One and done.
Fancy seeing you again.
-[Paige laughs]
-Is this hard, easy?
PAIGE:
It's three parts.
-Go slow. You got this.
-Hi.
Where is it?
KRISTINE:
It's Izzy and Paige there.
-Let's go with you.
-Yes.
KRISTINE:
We're going to here.
Here. Has to be in here.
-You want to come with us? Yeah.
-MAN: Sure.
-Yeah, thank you.
-HANNAH: Thank you so much.
-SIMONE: Thank you so much.
HANNAH:
Thank you.
-Bye. Thank you.
-Thank you.
-Go, go, go. Go.
-Hello.
HANNAH:
Hi. Hi. We're gonna be with you.
-Let's go.
-HANNAH:
Okay, and we're both dancers,
-so we can learn fast.
-MAN: Oh, let's go.
HANNAH:
Professional dancers, yes.
-MAN: Really?
-Yes.
-Yes.
HANNAH: So please teach it
to us as fast as you can.
MAN:
All right.
[lively, upbeat music playing]
-Yeah!
-Yeah!
-Let's go.
-Oh, thank you.
Yeah.
[whoops]
MAN:
Step, step.
Five, six, seven, eight.
-WOMAN: Jump, kick, jump, kick.
-JACK: Jump, kick, jump, kick.
-One, two.
-One, two. Other side.
Oh. Damn it. Sorry, Chelsie.
[woman hums song]
Why am I hopping?
It's just...
[both humming song]
ALEX:
Uh. That doesn't feel natural.
SIMONE:
All right, Hannah, we got this.
HANNAH:
We are ready for you.
Let's do it.
We can get it done.
KAT:
Back in my day,
I was a professional dancer.
I danced professionally
for a team for the NBA.
I know how to count music.
-Do y'all do eight counts?
-No.
KAT:
All right, all right.
In America,
we learn by eight counts.
Oh, wait, wait.
Wait. Sorry, sorry.
So... [humming song]
WOMAN:
Single version.
-ALEX: Three. Four.
-Three, four.
KAT: But here, her counting
methods were so different.
That just confused me.
I was like,
"I am not...
Like, we're not speaking
the same language here."
-I think
I'm just psyching myself out.
-That's okay.
Look at how many people
are here.
One, two, three.
Right, left.
-One, two, three.
-Two, three.
ALEX:
Then we just got to beat 'em.
We got this.
Come on, you got it.
-Practice.
-Sorry.
-It's okay.
We're-we're just
under a lot of stress.
-KYLAND: Let's do it.
-TAYLOR: Let's go.
-Hey!
-[whoops]
There? Yes, sir.
-All right.
-On you.
One, two, three.
You got it.
-Four, five.
-Five.
TAYLOR:
You can do this.
-Sorry.
-Aah!
-Oh!
-[squeaking]
-Sorry you did not pass.
Try again.
Nice little toss.
-Whoa. You got it.
-Got it? Got it. Aah!
It's all right, it's all right.
Nice job,
-bad toss.
-It's okay. It's okay.
[squeaking]
-Higher. Okay.
-[Taylor laughs]
-Ready? Deep breath.
-Yup.
-[inhales] All right.
-MAN: Yeah, yeah.
Keep going, keep going.
-Aah!
-Oh!
Did we make it?
That's okay, guys.
Congratulations.
-Oh, yeah!
-Aah!
-[laughs, screams]
-Yeah. Yeah.
TAYLOR:
Oh, my God!
[laughs]
-KYLAND:
Your circus is beautiful.
-Thank you so much.
That was awesome.
BOTH:
"Race to the Pit Stop."
-[whoops]
-JOSEPH: Oh, my God.
-[squeaking]
-Wow.
-Hello, guys.
Let's do it.
ADAM: Okay, you ready?
-One, two, three.
-One, two, three.
-Oh, too short.
-Sorry, sorry.
MAN:
Don't worry.
All you will need: ten seconds.
-My left hand, Joseph.
My left hand.
-Okay.
ADAM: Two, three.
Oh.
-Joseph, too short.
-You know, you can do this.
We're gonna get this.
[lively, upbeat music playing]
Now. Count.
Oh.
Sorry. Sorry.
You need more practice, please.
Yes. Thank you so much.
We're not giving up.
Let's go.
Step, touch, touch, touch.
-Jump, kick. Inward.
-Jump, kick, one.
JACK:
Oh, yeah.
-Five and six.
Seven and eight.
-Seven and eight.
Stop.
WOMAN:
Step. Cross.
BOTH:
One, two, three.
WOMAN:
Step with right leg.
-Okay, so, it's one, two, two.
-Hey, Alex.
Hey, let's do it quickly.
Do you think,
realistically-speaking,
are we gonna be able
to get this?
No, no, no,
we're already here, okay?
-This... Okay.
-Don't freak out. Okay.
So, one, two, three.
-MAN: Five, six, seven, eight.
-Five, six, seven, eight.
-MAN: Let's go.
-We're gonna try it.
-Gonna try it.
-MAN: Let's go.
-HANNAH: Okay.
I'm... I'm stressed.
-Thank you. Thank you so much.
-Thank you so much.
KAT:
This is not going well.
I just need a second. I'm sorry.
[lively, upbeat music playing]
Two turns.
MAN:
Wow. Great job.
HANNAH:
Thank you. Thank you.
-Thank you so much.
-Thank you so much.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
-JOSEPH: Two.
-ADAM: Two.
Three. Aah.
Joseph, too short.
Two, three.
No, too short.
Mm. Mm. [sighs]
-Aah.
-Was that too short?
Yeah.
JOSEPH:
We stayed there
in that sweaty,
hot tent with the clown
making fun of us,
looking like clowns.
Oh, it hit me in the air.
-Two, three.
-Two, three. High.
JOSEPH: Everything we've worked
so hard for is about to
quite literally
slip from our hands.
-Aah!
-Aah.
ADAM: Throw it further.
JOSEPH:
And each drop was devastating.
-It's too short.
-Same here.
I'm trying.
If you think
you have what it takes
to win The Amazing Race,
then go to cbs.com/casting
and apply now.
-Aah.
-I don't know.
Almost there.
JOSEPH:
Close. We're gonna get this.
-Okay.
-One,
two, three.
-That was ten.
-Please tell me that was ten.
-That one has to be ten.
-Okay, guys, go.
-Yes!
-Oh, my God!
Oh, my God.
-Oh, yes.
-[squeaking]
Oh, my God. Let's go.
-Thank you so much.
-Let's go.
-Oh, my God.
-Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
We got to go, Adam.
-The clue.
-Oh, my God. Thank you so much.
-Thank you so much.
You're welcome.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
-Come on, Joseph.
-We're still in the race.
JAG:
If you can show us
Várkert Bázar, and we can just
write down directions.
MAN:
You can take bus nine, I think.
Oh, this is bus nine?
-Right? This is right?
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.
JAS:
Thank you.
JAG:
Get to the front, Jasu.
Right now, we just got
to make it to the Pit Stop
and survive another day.
The motto has been
"slow and steady wins the race."
Izzy and Paige got it
on their first try.
That's incredible.
-They might want to U-Turn us.
-Um...
So we might have
to U-Turn them first.
JAS:
Turns out we might
have to do it first, yeah.
Okay.
I'm pleased to tell you,
Izzy and Paige, you are team
-number three.
-Yes, yes, yes.
-Yes.
Yeah. That's our spot.
As long as we're not last.
We're awfully close,
right? So...
-KYLAND: All right. You're good?
-TAYLOR: All right.
KYLAND:
Okay, baby.
Right, left, what do you think?
-KYLAND: Don't know.
-Which way?
JAG:
Can you pick up pace?
-Yeah.
-We're almost there.
-Push, baby, push. Let's go!
-[laughs]
[whoops] Oh, my God.
Please, oh...
-Ah.
-Ah.
Kyland and Taylor,
I'm pleased to tell you...
Oh, my God! [laughs]
KEOGHAN:
Team number four.
[both exclaim]
KEOGHAN:
And look behind you.
KYLAND:
Oh, my God.
-We're here.
-[cheering]
TAYLOR: Jag and Jas,
you're team number...
-five.
-Five.
-Yeah!
-Yeah!
-Let's go.
-Let's go.
-RUBINA: Yeah.
-♪
Ha! Ha! Ha!
One second.
MAN:
Wow.
I have a... card for you.
Thank you. I love you so much.
I love you so much.
You're the best. Thank you.
[muttering]
I mean, I think
we should just run it
aheads, like, at this point.
-We're the last ones here.
-It doesn't matter.
-I know.
-We got to finish it.
-I know.
-We got this.
Come on, baby.
Come here. Baby.
It's so frustrating.
Like, it's so frustrating.
[cries]
We did the best that we could
on this, and that was it.
Nothing to take away from that.
-[cries]
-Please.
We got this. We got this.
ALEX: Let's not waste time.
Let's just get it done.
-KAT [crying]: Oh, my God.
-ALEX: Come on.
It's okay. It's okay.
[sniffles, cries]
-Like, I don't...
You're, like...
-I'm sorry.
Now it's making me forget.
I'm sorry.
I just need to cry.
I'm up... I'm sad.
[Alex sighs]
What-what are we doing--
first part, second part?
We're pushing through it.
[humming tune]
[playing lively, upbeat tune]
[Jack mutters softly]
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.
MAN:
Wow.
JACK:
Yeah!
[Jack laughs]
-Congratulations.
-Thank you.
-Thank you so much.
-Thank you. All right.
Thank you.
-Hey, congrats.
-Good job.
-Yes. Let's go.
HANNAH:
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
-Maybe up there?
-Yeah.
SIMONE:
Here, Hannah! Hannah, look.
We have to go up here!
We have to go up here!
-Várkert Bázar.
-Just throw my bag on.
Just throw my bag on.
Joseph, Joseph, Joseph.
JOSEPH:
You found 'em?
ADAM:
There, I think
Hannah and Simone just beat us.
-KEOGHAN: Hannah and Simone...
-Yes.
I am pleased to tell you
you are team number six.
Oh. ...
HANNAH:
Good job.
Joseph and Adam,
you're in lucky number seven.
You're in seventh place.
[crying]
KEOGHAN:
I can honestly say,
after 38 seasons
of Amazing Race,
I have never seen
so much emotion
-at the mat with two teams.
-Oh, no.
-Phil.
-Yeah, bunch of babies.
-And good emotion.
Don't make us
come hug you, Phil.
[lively, upbeat music playing]
Yes! Great job.
Thank you so much.
It was perfect.
Thank you so much.
"Race to the Pit Stop.
"The last team
to check in will be...
will be eliminated."
Let's go.
Yes!
Kristine and Rubina,
you are team number eight.
-Congratulations.
-Oh, my God. What?
-No.
-They're both full.
Um, we just need a taxi
right now.
That's all we're waiting on.
Nope, he's got somebody.
I'm so disappointed
to go out like this.
-I get it. Trust me.
-That we blew it.
Like, we-we blew it.
Yes.
-Sir, taxi?
-Sir?
Sir, can you please take us?
Can you take us, please?
Várkert Bázar,
as quick as possible.
I'm all over the place,
mentally, right now.
Just want to go get to Phil.
I'm proud of us, too.
I'm not really proud of us
from this last leg,
-I am.
-to be honest.
-Oh, it's behind? Várkert?
-Where?
-Yup.
-Thank you. Thank you.
-Okay, then. Thank you.
CHELSIE:
All right, let's go.
Right in here?
ALEX:
I don't know.
Jack and Chelsie,
you are officially
team number nine.
-Yay.
-Yes. [laughs]
-Hi. [cries]
-Ooh.
Kat, you feel like what--
you let yourself down,
you let the team down?
-Why are you crying?
-I am. I'm sorry.
I am... [cries] I...
I just had really high hopes.
We were in the back of the pack
the whole time.
I'm sorry, I'm crying so much.
We were in the back of the pack
the whole time,
-and we prayed for a miracle.
-We got...
And we got... we got
so many miracles today,
and we were doing so well for
the beginning part of the day.
What do you say to Kat right now
in this moment?
There's no one else that I would
want to have run this with.
-Me too.
-And I'm honestly
so proud of us,
whether last, first.
We ran it as hard as we could.
Kat and Alex,
I am really sorry to tell you,
-ALEX: Yeah.
-and especially seeing
all this emotion on your face,
that you are
the last team to arrive.
-Yeah.
-And I do need
to eliminate you from this race.
Yes, sir. Thank you so much
for the opportunity.
-It's been the best...
-It's been a lot of fun.
experience we could ever have.
At the end of the day,
we finished it.
We got it done.
So, I mean, I'm just so happy
that she didn't give up,
she didn't quit.
She got out of that headspace,
and was like, "Okay,
let's do it," and she smiled.
I'm very proud of her for that.
-I'm so proud.
-Thank you.
-I'm proud of us.
-So proud.
KEOGHAN: Next time
onThe Amazing Race...
The Double U-Turn is back...
They're gunning for us here.
KEOGHAN:
...bringing intrigue...
They didn't see me.
They said this right here.
That's crazy.
KEOGHAN:
...frustration...
Oh! Come on.
I'm tired.
I want
to be a little angry right now.
KEOGHAN:
...and tears.
[crying]:
It's so hard. I'm so tired!
