23x01 - We're Not in Oklahoma No More

Post by bunniefuu »

It's high noon and the

Tension is rising.

This old western movie ranch

Will now serve as the starting

Line in a race around the world.

Today, these 11 new teams will

Get their chance to win $1

Million and ...the amazing race....

That's if the money isn't stolen

First.

The 11 teams are chester and

Ephraim.

Former nfl teammates from

Houston, texas.

Chester and I both were

Students at san diego state.

I used to shop at a grocery

Store.

Chester worked there.

He was a bagger.

I told him he should take his

Big self and play football.

He ends up getting drafted in

The nfl.

I end up coming to houston and

Playing right next to my best

Friend.

I made him who he is today.

Rowan and shane, theater

Possummers from charlotte, north

Carolina.

The main way we make our

Living is doing a play called

...the queen of bingo....

Tim and marie, exes from

Morristown, new jersey.

Tim and I are exes.

We dated about five years ago.

We don't get along but we

Continue to hang out.

Why do you feel threatened by

My opinions?

I don't feel threatened.

Your opinion is usually a waste

Of time.

She's great and aggressive.

She makes a great team may want.

Your v*olence kind of turns me

On.

We might realize the first

Leg of the race we can't do

This.

This is going to destroy us.

Lowo and jamaal, does frns

Southern california.

Amaal and I are known as the

Ahghan animals.

The reason for that is...

We're afghan and we act like

Animals.

Our parents came here to have

A successful life in america.

America is going to know who

The after began namals are.

Ally and ashley, from long

Beach, california.

We like to be bright and

Stand out.

We like sparkly things.

We skate on the ice during tv

Time-outs.

We're not looking for love on

The ice.

If it happens, that's great but

Wait, I have a boyfriend.

Ally, what are you talking

About?

Nicole and travis, married

E.r. Physicians from atlanta,

Georgia.

Travis and I work together as

A team at home, work together as

A team at work.

You can't go to work and have

A down day.

You have to be prepared for

Everything.

I believe we're the formidable

Couple in the race.

Hoskote and naina, father

And daughter from laguna,

California.

I still have the mentality

That father knows best.

I would love for naina to have

An arranged mainly.

I do what I want, say what I

Want and I do what I want.

Sometimes that doesn't jibe with

What he wants.

Chicago about it gives me the

Heebie-jeebies.

I'm not going to link her up

With quassy moto.

Tim and danny, workers

From kordell, oklahoma.

We've lived in oklahoma all

Our lives.

Tim and i, we'll work 70 to



We live pay check to may

Check.

My wife has a disease and has a

Lot of medical bills.

I can't say there are so many

Times in somebody's life where

They can say they have a 1-11

Chance to win $1 million.

Brandon and adam,

Childhood friends in chico,

California.

Both of us being nerdy

Outcasts, we bonded pretty much

Snoonl instantly.

I'm get naked at the drop of the

A hat.

In I'm drunk if I'm drunk

Especially.

Nickey and kim.

Major league baseball wives from

The midwest.

I'm kim dejesus and my

Husband is david.

I'm nickey gets and my

Husband is tim getz.

We're so much more than

Baseball wives and we're going

To win ...the amazing race....

Jason and amy, dating from

New england.

We have that compatible

Competitiveness and drive and we

Always want to be first at

Everything we do.

I own a snow and ice management

Company.

You have to dig in to get the

Job done.

I understand aggressive,

Competitive people.

I graduated high school at 16,

Finished college in three years

And then two masters two years

Later.

I couldn't imagine being with

Someone that wasn't somewhat

Like me.

I think when we're firing on

All cylinders together as a

Team, we're unstoppable.

Welcome to the old wild west

In just a few minutes, you will

Be leaving these dusty streets

And traveling thousands of miles

To the exotic coastline of south

America, and when you get there,

Get ready for the ride of your

Life.

If you win this first leg of the

Race, you will win an express

Pass.

And a second express pass that

You must hand over to another

Team before the end of the fifth

Leg.

Winning this first leg could

Give you the power to determine

Who gets ahead and who gets left

Behind.

Your first clue is just a phone

Call away.

When I say go, you can make your

Way to one of the all new ford

C-max energy plug-inhybrids and

Make a call to the other side of

The world to receive your

Instructions.

Is everybody ready?

All right, let's get this race

Started.

The world is waiting for you.

Good luck travel safe go!

Ooh!

Dial number.





Dial a number.

Here we go.

We're in business.

You're now headed to iquique,

Chile.

Drive yourself to los angeles

International airport.

There are only seats for a

Limited number of teams on the

First flight.

Don't get left behind.

We're in first place right

Now.

Whoo!

Chile!

When you land, come look for

Me.

Javier.

Ooh, ok.

Here we go, baby, ...amazing

Race....

Whoo!

We're going to chile!

We're doing this big.

On ...amazing race... Every single

Day...

This is crazy, we're doing

...the amazing race....

It just got real.

[Captioning made possible by cbs

Productions, cbs, inc. And ford.

Drive one.]

We're the leader of the pack

Because we are animals.

What's up?

The first flight that's going

There is american airlines.

We need to be on the first

One.

We need to get that express

Pass.

Pick it up a little bit.

What do you want me to do?

Go faster.

I didn't know they made

People with voices as shrill as

Yours.

Dodger stadium.

Did we go the wrong way?

I think we should stop and

Ask.

That's fine.

Ma'am, you know where the

Airport is?

L.a.x.?

Don't speak english.

You know the plane?

Avion?

Si, si.

You know what the airport is?

No?

Sorry.

There's not this many

Freeways in oklahoma.

Hello, hello.

We're first, right?

Just to confirm.

No other crazy people like us

Have come through?

No, not yet.

Done.

The afghanimals arrived in

L.a.x., First team to arrive.

I'd love to get an express

Pass and hopefully form an

Alliance with someone.

The prize for winning the

First leg is huge.

Two express passes.

One for you and one to make an

Alliance with another team.

Hi.

We need tickets to the first

Flight.

If they're still available.

Got it!

Yes.

Hi.

We need two tickets to

Iquique.

That fight is full.

We got on the second flight.

All other teams got here.

There are other teams.

We have to be better than at

Least one of them.

We're already having language

Barriers in l.a. So it's going

To be tough by the time we get

To chile.

Where are you folks from?

We're both from northern

California.

I live out in the woods right

Now.

My wife and I have a project.

I saw four cars in a month.

It's good to live like that.

Yeah.

Ok, guys.

You finally made it.

Hello.

How are you?

Good.

Tim?

Nice to meet you.

Marie.

Nice to meet you.

They're eye candy.

They had a good vibe and we

Felt the same way about them.

They might be playing us to

Get that express pass but we

Might be playing everyone else

Too.

That's part of the game.

All teams are making their

Way to iquique, chile, by way of

Santiago.

They must travel by taxi and

Search for the zona for javier,

When with who will hand them

Their next clue.

In a race.

In a race.

My wife is pregnant.

Taxi.

Taxi!

We got the first taxi.

Good job, dave.

We need to get the express

Passes.

We're hoping that the last

Plane hasn't left to take off

Left.

Here we are in santiago,

Chile.

Very discouraging for the four

Teams that caught the last

Flight.

Four hours behind seven

Teams.

That would hurt to be the

Last ones going.

That's definitely not what we

Came here to do.

Wow.

That is awesome.

Oh, look.

Oh, hell, no.

Did my voice go up four octaves

There?

Gracias.

Javier?

Ok.

Robot.

Who's going to follow the

Leader.

This robot requires one

Player to follow their plarn,

Who will be parra gliding atop

These rugged cliffs, a training

Ground for many of the best

Acrobatic pilots in the world.

Once they've landed, the jump

Master will hand them their last

Clue.

One team member already par

Gliding.

I'm doing the paragliding.

Roadblock.

Who's good at following the

Leader?

I'll do it.

Wait a minute.

If you said you're going to do

It, they would may me be

Parting.

I wanted to jump off the

Cliff!

Oh, man.

I'm going to find you.

Ok.

Woo!

Have fun, travis!

Have a great time!

Cool, we're in the race.

Yes, we're getting altitude now.

Look at that view and feel the

Wind.

It was just one of those moments

That was really so

Awe-inspiring.

Absolutely beautiful.

My taxi driver to see where

Travis is going to so that we

Can follow him.

It is extremely helpful that

I've been able to communicate

With these gentlemen in spanish.

You ready?

You got it, baby.

I would have done it but hey,

I'm not mad that he's doing it.

I'm about to walk off a

Cliff.

Yes, you are.

I love you, man.

This is absolutely insane.

Ah!

Come on.

You're going to come down and

Land.

Irked find out where they are

Down on the beach.

I am paragliding in chile.

You just have to take it in.

Look at that.

I can see a punch of the

Parasails right now.

They're slowly but surely

Descending.

At least we're headed in the

Right direction.

So that's good.

Yay!

Oh, my gosh!

Javier!

Come on.

Wait, we'll be right back.

Javier!

Thank you.

Thank you!

Thank you, thank you.

Thank you!

Roadblock.

Ok.

Who's good at follow the

Leader?

I am.

You are.

Darn, I'm doing it.

I am.

I can do this.

So you're paragliding?

Yeah.

I'm ready to fly.

Where do I go?

I'm following?

That's fine, whatever.

Find your partner.

They will be paragliding to one

Of the beaches and they'll have

To be brave to be there.

Meet them at the beach.

You'll see your next clue.

I'm freaking out.

Ok, you can do this.

Everybody's here except us.

Gracias.

You're pair parra

Flieding.

Yes.

Whoo!

Whatever it takes for a

Million dollars.

I'm proud of you already.

I cannot believe I'm going

Off that.

I can't believe I have to go

Find you.

There he goes.

Wow!

Oh, spectacular.

Sally fields, the flying nun

Ain't got nothing on me, baby.

Taxi, will you take me down

To the beach?

Oh, my god, ally, I'm so

Proud of you.

You're doing so good.

Oh, my gosh.

Ahhh!

Go, ally!

I love you!

This is so cool.

Whoo!

I think I might faint.

You follow my boys.

Done.

Kim, you can do this.

Do it for spidy.

I have to forget about my

Son, spidy.

What if something happened to

Me?

Who's going to take care of him?

I was honestly having a panic

Attack.

I've never done anything like

This in my life.

Be strong.

Afghanimal blood.

Hold your feet down.

Run, run, run.

Liftoff, baby, liftoff.

Let's go!

You can do it!

Oh, my god.

I'm really scared.

I feel like I'm going to throw

Up.

I don't know how I'm going to do

This.

Oh, my god.

I keep thinking of my son.

My husband already is a great

Role model for my son but I want

To be a great role model too and

Want him to know his mom chased

Her dreams too.

Oh, dear god.

Jesus, help me.

Spidy, baby, this is for you.

I hope you're proud of me.

Organization my god, this is so

Beautiful.

What!

All right.

Had a nice calm instructionor

Telling me what to do in a

Flight voice.

It was nice.

It was peaceful.

Ow!

We should have kept our damn

Taxis.

Big mistake.

We let our taxi go.

So basically I ordered two taxis

For me and ashley.

Where did the two taxis go?

Come on!

There's two taxis turning

Down this way.

Are you a taxi?

Can you take me to the beach?

Where the parachutes land.

Wait, I have this one.

Oh, my god!

Marie and ashley are getting the

Cabs that I ordered.

I don't want marie to get in

There.

What just happened here was

Straight-up robbery.

Ok?

Beach.

Playa.

Yeah.

Follow the leader means I'm

Following whoever is

Paragliding.

So we're going to drop.

Ooh!

Oh, yeah.

All right.

That was great.

Whoa!

There they are.

They're far.

Wow.

For some reason the taxi driver

Stopped really far from where

Travis had landed.

Time for a little buggy.

We're at the beach, I know

That.

Is that him down there?

Look mom, no hands.

Wow, this is unbelievable.

It was real easy to spot you.

It looked like a military grade

Jeep in a parachute with those

Ginormous shoes and that big

Suit that you had on.

Hey, I'm comfortable with my

Width.

I think I see the landings going

On this way.

The cab driver let me out of the

Cab far too premature.

A mile away?

Feel like you're at the end

Of the earth.

Mucho gracias.

Coming in.

Wow.

Ok.

Thank you.

Thanks.

Make your way to muel, e prat

In search of your next glue.

Oh, my gosh.

You got the clue?

I know.

Make your way to muelle prat.

Muelle, prat.

Watch that hole.

Watch that hole!

In coming!

Whoo!

We did it!

Yay!

I'm alive!

Ahhh!

I did it?

I'm safe?

It was the coolest thing I've

Ever done in my life but it was

Definitely the scariest.

Awesome.

I mean, i...

In is not good.

I don't see them anywhere.

Is there any way you can pull

Over in here?

Thank you so much.

Ally is right there.

Oh, my goodness, that's so far.

See where the parachute is?

All the way up there.

Stop, stop.

Make your way to muelle prat.

Is that for our next clue?

Make your way to muelle prat.

It's very important that we

Are first, please.

Go, go, go.

Taxi, I need a taxi.

Taxi, let's go.

It's really tough to not be

Brutal with the four teams that

Are still in the last leg of the

Race here because we pretty much

Know it's going to be one of us

Four that are going to be

Eliminated.

I don't want our trip to end.

Just thinking about our family.

This means a lot to us.

That's what I'm here for.

There's the clue box.

Ok.

Roadblock.

Who's got both oars in the

Water?

This roadblock requires

Teams to choose a rowboat and

Search iquique's harbor.

Rowing these heavy, cumbersome

Bolts among hundreds of ships,

They must collect a total of

Five fish from any of these

Fishing boats, each containing a

Limited number of fish.

Once they've been delivered to

The fishmonger, he'll hand them

Their next clue.

That's me.

Choose an available row bolt.

We go down here.

Look at that.

Wow.

All right.

You got this, babe.

This is heavy.

I haven't padded a boat in

Years.

I'm a little bit nervous

Because there are a lot of

Different bolts with a lot of

Different names.

One of us gets to peria glide

Hopefully.

Javier?

Si.

Roadblock.

Find your partner.

Oh, here, here!

Javier, yes!

Oh, we beat them.

So happy to see javier.

Yeah, I'll do the roadblock.

I'll do it.

Of course we're the last ones

Here.

I'll do it.

I'm really, really excited.

Have fun.

Love you.

Have fun, daddy, have fun.

Thank you, sweetie pie.

I wanted to do the

Paragliding but he actually

Deserves it because he's allowed

Me to do a lot of things and I

Don't think he'll ever do this

Again.

Can you find me, girl?

I will.

Looking for one of them

Boats.

San francisco or scarlet.

Go, baby.

First place, oh, is going to be

Sweeter if we could get that

Express get it.

That express pass is like gold.

There it is, come on.

If you paraglided while your

Partner searched on the first

Roadblock, you must perform this

One.

Ok, thars me.

Look at that guy.

Ok, so you have to do this

One.

Travis, keep going, you've

Got this!

Dona hilda, found it.

Help me out!

My name is not rowan for

Nothing.

Gracias!

Oh, in is not it.

Keep going, travis.

You got this, babe.

Think of the kids.

I could hear nicole

Encouraging me to do it for the

Kids and I really gave it

Took everything in my power to

Not start crying.

I know those palms are

Burning.

Keep going.



Oh.

You got this, travis.

You're going to be stinking.

That's a big fish.

If you peria glide while your

Partner searched in the first

Roadblock...

You must perform this

Roadblock.

I got it.

Cinco.

Teams must now make they

Wear on foot to the municipal

Theater of iquique, a national

Monument and the pit stop for

This leg of the race.

The first team to check in here

Will win an express pass and a

Second express pass they must

Give to another team.

And the last team to check in

Here will be eliminated.

Ok.

Wait, you need this.

Make your way on foot to your

Next pit stop.

Taxi?

Those guys aren't even close.

This is going to fall out.

My first nightmare.

A lot of boats.

Any one of them.

All right, you got it.

Is that a hobie?

Hey, settle down.

Come on, man, settle down.

Ally, you've got this,

Girlfriend.

What the heck?

Oh, there's phil!

Ahhh!

Oh, my god!

Hello, welcome to iquique,

Chile.

Thank you.

Gracias.

Nicole and travis, you are

The first team to arrive...

Wait, wait, wait...

However.

Your clue states that you must

Make your way on foot.

You took a taxicab here.

It's ok.

What's the number one rule

On ...the amazing race...?

Read the clue.

You've incurred a



You'll need to wait out that

Penalty before I can check you

In.

Go sit on the wall.

Boy, the express pass.

This will be the longest 30

Minutes probably of our lives.

Broke the number one rule.

We did not read the

Instructions all the way.

We were supposed to come here by

Foot so we are waiting tout



Praying that we'll still come in

First and win the express pass.

What am I doing?

Slow and steady wins the

Race.

We get to san francisco.

The scarlet, the donna hilda.

I don't have a lot of body

Strength.

You want to help me out, bud?

I would totally appreciate it.

This is really hard.

I feel bad for the girls.

Wait.

You're supposed to be doing the

Roadblock.

Huh?

You didn't read the clue

Correctly.

If you paraglided, you have to

Do the roadblock.

Come back!

Oh, man!

Oh, gosh.

San francisco.

Hilda, I got one.

Now we just have to get there.

San francisco, si?

Gracias.

I found donna hilda.

Do you have fish on your

Boat?

If they'd stop annoying me

From the dock.

Adios.

We're hoping that the other

Folks don't read their clue all

The way or they struggle through

That task.

All done, thank god.

Tim kicked butt.

Let's go!

Let's just go.

Come on!

Is this it right here?

Right.

Come on, come on.

Come on.

Tim and marie, nicole and

Travis inoccurred a 30-minute

Penalty, which they are still

Waiting out, which means you are

Team number one.

Yes!

You have won an express

Pass for yourself plus a second

Express pass that you must hand

Over to another team before the

End of the fifth leg.

This is proof that all that

Yelling hello it works.

Two express passes, that's

The best start you can have.

But the nagging and insulting

Hasn't stopped for five years.

It's what got us here!

Whoo!

No good?

No good.

Some teams are having

Trouble.

Apparently he wanted me to

Keep running down the slide of

The cliff but I didn't realize

It so I jumped and I just it

May come off that we're not that

Serious.

We look the way we look but we

Want this bad.

Doctors, you can come on

Over.

Nicole and travis, you are now

Officially team number two.

We're emergency medical

Physicians and we're usually

Careful about paying attention

To details so not winning the

Express passes was really a

Disappointment.

But the next leg is ours.

Jamaal!

Come back!

Why!

I have to do it!

I have to go back.

Leo is supposed to be doing this

Roadblock.

I sailed.

You're supposed to be doing

This.

It's not like fish.

I know.

A good catholic.

Are you kidding me?

I have four fish.

I found the first boat but this

Boat didn't have enough fish.

Scarlet, san francisco, where

Are you?

Scarlet?

There it is, there it is.

Scarlet, I see it.

Gracias.

Come on, you can do it!

One.

I got five!

Scarlet, are you there?

Come out, come on.

Oh, my god.

Rowan and shane, you are

Team number three,

Congratulations.

Bingo!

Come on, jamaal.

We let girls beat us.

Ah!

Ah, gracias, senor.

Be careful.

Whoo!

Whoo!

Whoa, baby.

I am so happy that we're not

Out of it yet.

We deserve to be in it still.

Let's go.

Whoo!

Yeah, baby!

I'm jealous.

This is a whole different world

To me and tim.

Paragliding was an unbelievable

Experience.

We're not in oklahoma, though.

Yeah!

We did it.

Better late than never.

So right now we're in last

Place.

I'm disappointed but, you know,

This was brandon's dream so I'm

Glad he got to do it.

Come on.

Chester and ephraim, you

Are team number four.

Nickey and kim, are you team

Number five.

Good job, ladies.

Hey, your boy.

Cinco.

Let's go, amigo!

That's it?

I have to go somewhere else

Then.

Coming in for the landing.

Amy, run over here.

Oh, my god.

This is fantastic.

Ok, I see them.

Thank you, sir.

Search for your next clue.

Thank you.

Let's get out of here.

Muelle prat.

Let's go.

Where the hell is she?

San francisco?

Ok, gracias.

Let's go, leo.

Good job!

I'm a professional!

I got my fishes.

One of them has gook coming out

Of it.

A million dollars, ally.

This is so gross.

Come on, ally.

Come on, come on.

He's here.

Come on, let's go!

With...

We are the last again.

Why were you waiting?

I wasn't waiting, I left.

What happened?

Why the delay?

I don't know.

Mucho rapido.

Come on, let's go.

Ally and ashley, you are

Team number six.

Ahhh!

Leo and jamaal, are you

Team number seven.

Congratulations.

Roadblock.

Oh, I got to do it.

Yeah.

That's you.

Yeah.

Holy hell, what's that?

I don't know.

Oh, I might get bit by a

Seal.

Come on, jason!

I was on a rowing crew back

In prep school.

I was like yes,.

When we have things we can

Control, we're going to excel.

It's just us three.

I've never rowed a boat

Before.

We have motors on our boat back

Home.

It would be terrible to be

Eliminated first.

My family can do so much with

That fun the money.

Try a different technique,

Timmy.

That ain't working.

I don't know where I'm going.

You got this.

I'm going to feel real bad if

I lose everything.

San francisco.

Here you go, fish.

Fife fish.

Got some fish in there?

Got some fish.

Keep going.

Thanks.

Between us, brother.

Yes, brother.

Come on, baby.

Oh, yes.

Ci, nco, whoo!

Thanks, dude.

Cinco.

Gracias, senor.

I'm coming.

There it is, there it is.

Come on!

Last team just showed up!

There's dona hilda.

That's one of the ones.

There are no fish.

No?

Ah!

You're kidding me.

Well, that sucks.

Come on, b!

I don't know where to go.

You're kidding me.

This is getting depressing.

My partner is loud.

You can hear him from here.

I know even if I mess up he is

Going to be proud of me.

Come on, man!

We've been best friends for



This isn't going to stop it.

So I must do this roadblock.

Hola!

Jason and amy, you're team

Number eight.

Thank you.

All right, man, let's go!

I got a fish.

Daddy did you find a fish?

Oklahoma, help me out.

They only have the five fish.

Come on.

This is where we're going.

Whoa!

Rowing motion, rowing motion.

Oh!

San francisco?

Oh!

Come on, b!

This is us!

Gracias.

Come on, girl.

These oars are two big for

Me.

Tim and danny, are you

Team number nine.

Whoo!

I'll take it.

Right here!

Come to daddy.

That's my boy.

Come on, girl.

All right.

Ah.

Come on, go, girl.

Frustrating to see her do

This.

I mean, I probably could have

Done a better job.

I just need to make sure they

Remember the names.

You're not rowing, girl!

Oh, whoops.

He should have done it.

I have to go back.

Come on, sweetie!

Daddy, you have to do it.

I read it wrong.

She read the clue wrong.

Oh, my god!

Brandon and adam, you are

Team number 10 and you are still

In the race.

Yes, daddy, great, woo-hoo!

Five fishes, please.

I didn't expect to go out

Like this at all.

The adventure didn't even begin

For us.

Thank you, gracias, senor.

Can't wait to finish up.

I'm just proud of him for going

Out there and finishing and

Showing me that he's my biggest

Cheerleader and my biggest

Supporter and I'm so proud of

Him.

Daddy, did you get the fish?

Yep, I'm getting them.

Way to go, dad.

Hoskote and naina, you are

The last team to arrive.

I am very sorry to tell you that

You have been eliminated from

The race.

It ended for us way too soon

But...

It wasn't supposed to happen

Like this.

I'm feeling very devastating

Finishing last on the first leg.

What I wanted to show my dad was

Cut short.

He actually hasn't seen me in

Action.

I think he has a way to go as

Far as lightening that grip he

Has on me and his expectations.

Does your dad get to lend

A little hand in trying to find

The right man?

Well, father knows best.

Stay tuned for scenes from

Our next from our next episode.

Next week on ...the amazing

Race......

I don't want to talk.

You're using my air.

Teams crack up.

Smash.

This thing is absolutely

Kicking our butt, brother.

And stripped down.

Can I get a hand on this?

This is cold.

They look good in bat dennis

Do bikinis.
