The Amazing Race (2001) s38e09 Episode Script

1
PHIL KEOGHAN: Previously
onThe Amazing Race
In Amsterdam, Kyland and Taylor
won an Express Pass
and handed a second
Express Pass to Jas and Jag,
solidifying their relationship.
In Dubrovnik,
alliance partners Jas and Jag
and Joseph and Adam
controlled the U-Turn board
If they got to the board first,
they were gonna.
- U-Turn on us.
- And they're a strong team.
It's too hard in the race
for us to let this pass.
KEOGHAN:
and upset Taylor.
It is an act of exclusion
of women
who are just as strong
and just as capable.
It's always
women getting targeted.
KEOGHAN:
Kyland's speculation
We heard that the boy teams had,
like, a gentlemen's agreement.
Looks like they U-Turned
two of the girl-girl teams.
KEOGHAN: put Tucker and
Eric and Jas and Jag on alert.
ERIC:
And they were like,
"It looks like the guys
had a gentlemen's agreement.
Like, they're not
going after the guys' team."
They were, like,
gunning for us both.
KEOGHAN:
From Hungary through Romania,
Tucker and Eric
became a dominating force,
winning four legs in a row.
But in the last leg,
a wrong turn
by Tucker and Eric's taxi
ERIC:
Just missed a turn.
We're doing
a little three-pointer
to get back en route.
KEOGHAN:
gave Jas and Jag the chance
to win their third leg
of the season.
I am pleased to tell you
that you are team number one.
- Yeah!
- Let's go.
KEOGHAN: Meanwhile,
last place Joseph and Adam
were spared elimination.
This is a non-elimination leg
and you are both
still in the race.
[Adam cries]
KEOGHAN:
But it will come at a cost.
Sometime during the next leg
of the race,
you are going
to be penalized in some way.
Coming up tonight,
the remaining six teams
will cast their vote
in a live Double U-Turn
- What?
- ADAM: Whoa.
KEOGHAN: like
nothing you've seen before.
- Oh, that's bad.
- [cries]
Route Info.
"Fly to Athens,
the capital of Greece."
KEOGHAN:
All teams will now fly
to the southernmost country
in Europe Greece.
♪
Its capital city, Athens,
is not only Europe's oldest,
but also the home
of the first Olympics
and the birthplace
of democracy
something teams will
experience firsthand
when they arrive here
at Pnyx Hill,
where great orators gathered
thousands of years ago
to address the citizens
of Athens.
- Let's go.
- All right.
JAG:
We're leaving
in first place today,
but we're literally in first
by seconds compared
to Tucker and Eric.
JAS: We got our taxi.
We're going to the airport.
All right, let's do it.
BOTH: "Fly to Athens,
the capital of Greece."
- Let's go!
- Let's go.
ERIC: This next leg or two
is probably gonna be key
between us and Jas and Jag.
Oh, there's a taxi right there.
ERIC: We're not strangers
to intense competition.
We're not afraid of it,
so, we'll be ready to rumble.
- TUCKER: Going to the
- ERIC: The airport.
JAG:
Thank you.
JAG: We used our Express Pass
during the previous leg.
Now that we don't have
the Express Pass,
we don't have that cushion.
- JAS: All right.
- Thank you.
JAG: But you know,
we've been sort of fine-tuning
all of our skills for the last
eight legs, and we're hoping
that it pays off.
JAS:
Let's do this.
- TUCKER: Take care. Thank you.
- Have a good one.
- Athens.
- We're going to Athens, baby.
- "Fly to" Yeah! [Laughs]
- [laughing]
All right, read the sentence.
TAYLOR: I've been waiting
for this. Let's go!
- Airport?
- TAYLOR: Yes, to the airport.
I've been to Greece before.
I love it. It's beautiful there.
I have been in the summertime.
I have a feeling this will be
a little bit different
of an experience, but I'm
excited to be back nonetheless.
- Have a good day. Bye-bye.
- Thank you.
Let's head inside.
PAIGE: So we are
starting this leg
in fourth place.
IZZY:
As freelance artists,
we don't have
any retirement fund,
so, we for sure need
and want this million dollars.
- Thank you so much.
- Thank you.
- Let's go, Greece!
- Let's go, Greece. See ya.
CHELSIE: We're the last team
to leave today.
It never feels great
to be in last,
but it does feel good
to still be in the race.
Beating Joseph and Adam
is bittersweet.
They are amazing,
phenomenal people.
JACK:
I commend Adam and Joseph
for racing this race.
Obviously, Adam has diabetes.
My wife love you, babe,
miss you her mother
she has MS, has been dealing
with it since 2005.
And it has debilitated her
to a certain degree.
She could not have
done this race physically,
so, we're doing it for her.
CHELSIE:
Thank you.
Let's do it.
"Travel by taxi to Pnyx Hill
to receive your next clue."
- Let's go, let's go, let's go.
- Let's go. Let's go. Come on.
Yes, baby,
we're going to Greece!
JOSEPH: We are still alive
after a non-elimination leg.
Come on,
we got to go catch everybody.
We're in the back, and we have
a penalty coming our way,
so, we're really gonna have
to give this our all
to make sure
we can stay in the race.
- Yo, wish us luck.
- Go.
Thank you.
- I mean, they were so, like, jumped over it.
- Oh, my God!
[all exclaiming]
- Wait.
- Oh!
[Tucker and Joseph laughing]
- Oh, my God.
- It's awesome.
TAYLOR: We both have
a very special relationship
with both Joseph and Adam.
Joseph is my closest friend,
inside and outside of the game.
And so, I'm glad
that they got another shot
at making another leg.
IZZY:
We're off to Athens.
TUCKER:
Greece, baby.
- TAYLOR: You ever go to Athens?
- TUCKER: Fired up.
We're going to Athens, baby.
JACK: Another dog race
coming up today. Let's go.
♪
♪
- JAG: Taxi?
- JAS: Yeah, taxi?
Oh, right there. Jaga.
- Taxi!
- Eric, down here.
- TAYLOR: Taxi. There.
- Go, go, go.
- Right here.
- TAYLOR: Aah.
Pnyx Hill,
National Observatory of Athens.
- National Observatory.
- Can you pop your trunk, please?
Big race. Get in front
of this car to the left.
We're going to Pnyx Hill.
KYLAND:
Pnyx Hill is
the birthplace of, like, voting.
JOSEPH: We do know we
have a penalty coming up.
Adam and I need every second,
every opportunity.
We are going
to be in that final five.
- JAS: Oh, perfect.
- JAG: Yes.
Here you go. Thank you.
CHELSIE:
Okay, perfect.
- Okay. Yes, this is perfect. Thank you.
- Oh, my God.
- How much?
- It is 80.
Eighty? Okay.
♪
There's Phil. I see Phil.
Seeing Phil in the middle
of a race is never a good sign.
Wow. Holy cow.
I think he's over there.
KEOGHAN:
Come on in, guys.
Oh, Phil.
PAIGE:
There they are.
TAYLOR:
Oh, my God, what a long run.
[laughing]
Wow. I am pooped.
Does anybody know what
that magnificent structure is
- in the background there?
- The Parthenon.
That is correct,
on top of the Acropolis.
A lot of ancient history here.
And this hill, Pnyx Hill
they used to have votes
- here on this hill.
- [laughing]
Yeah, like, game-changing votes.
- [contestants exclaiming]
- KEOGHAN: This is
a live Double U-Turn vote.
- What?
- ADAM: Whoa.
You are going
to be voting for two teams
that you want to slow down,
forcing those teams
to perform
both sides of the Detours.
Okay, so what you'll do
is you'll come forward,
grab a voting box.
You're gonna vote,
you're gonna come back.
The votes are gonna
be locked in, and that is it.
So, think very carefully
about who you vote for.
- We're looking to target strong teams.
- Yup.
I think Eric and Tucker
is a no-brainer.
Jag and Jas.
Exactly.
We've done too much
for each other.
Kyland and Taylor obviously,
they gifted us an Express Pass,
but
But then you also have
the conversation
that they had that they would
U-Turn us if they got us.
We think we're definitely
getting U-Turned.
[laughs] - I've played a
game with Tucker already.
You know,
I know how he operates.
They will only be slowed down
for a second.
You have to go with the majority
on the second vote.
I think
it's gonna be Jag and Jas.
It's either Jas, Jag,
or Kyland and Taylor.
- JOSEPH: Dude, we can't do Jas and Jag.
- ADAM: I know,
but Joseph, it has to be one
of the two. For us to survive,
- you can
- I'm too involved with these people.
You have to make the decision.
Are you gonna do that to me?
We are working with Jas and Jag.
Joseph and I value the loyalty
of how much
we've worked together
over trying to take out
two top teams at once.
Okay, don't look. Hold it up.
- I'm gonna choose one.
- I'm not gonna look.
KEOGHAN: Okay, we're gonna
start with Joseph and Adam.
I do need to say,
since you were the last team
to arrive
at the end of the last leg,
you have been penalized
with a U-Turn vote.
Ah.
- Aah.
- That's bad.
KEOGHAN:
That's your penalty.
Now we're gonna
reveal these votes,
and we want you to discuss why
you voted for who you voted for.
Joseph is a lot closer
with some of the people
on this race than I am.
Joseph could not make
a decision, so he walked away.
- Joseph doesn't know.
- I don't even know.
I let Adam do it.
I love everyone here too much,
and Adam took the lead.
Tell me the basis
of your decision.
The first team we voted for,
I think the shortest way
to describe them is juggernauts.
The second team,
I chose a team that I believe
we will be the only team
U-Turning them,
essentially burning the U-Turn.
Can you please reveal your vote?
JOSEPH: Sorry.
Whoever it is, sorry, guys.
PAIGE: Wow.
KEOGHAN: Tucker and Eric,
a vote against you.
- Jack and Chelsie, how do you feel?
- It's a game.
If you take it personal, then
maybe you shouldn't be here.
TUCKER:
And I think
we all are aware of that
from playing games
with each other before.
- So, yeah.
- Yeah. Hey.
Eric, I'm interested in
the choice that you guys made.
Did you pick teams that
you felt that you could beat?
We chose the two teams
that we think
are the strongest competitors
here.
KEOGHAN:
Ooh, okay.
Kyland and Taylor, Jag and Jas.
If you got to vote,
Chelsie, we know
you know how to win.
Our choices were Jag, Jas,
and Taylor and Kyland.
You guys had Express Passes,
so we just felt like
this evened it out a little bit.
And I evicted Tucker
on my season,
of Big Brother, so
- Damn right she did!
- You know, uh
People don't forget.
Jag and Jas, tell us the
rationale behind your voting.
The first team
that we voted for,
we never expected
that we would actually
vote for them,
but there was something
that we overheard them saying,
and the second team
is just a very strong team.
It is Kyland and Taylor
and Tucker and Eric.
Whoa.
KYLAND:
We heard that the boy teams
had, like,
a gentlemen's agreement.
ERIC:
They were like, "It looks like
"the guys had
a gentlemen's agreement.
"Like, they're not going after
the guys team.
Blah, blah, blah."
So, like, it looks like they're,
like, gunning for us both.
Up until that point,
we were fully loyal,
but when we heard that
- We were shocked. We were shocked.
- We were shocked.
Yeah, no, you should be shocked.
We were talking
about the previous U-Turn,
not saying we're going to U-Turn
the boys in the future.
If we're being really honest,
I was talking about how I feel
really uncomfortable
in this race
because guys
are dominating this race.
This is really frustrating
as a woman.
I show up towards the front,
and it's a bunch of guys,
but it's exhausting.
So I'm not sitting there
talking about,
I want to U-Turn the boys.
If anything, you're gonna see
how loyal we have been
to you guys,
because we care about you,
and we're really appreciative
of how you have looked out
for us in this race.
To have these guys
flip on a dime
I would respect both of them
more if they just said,
"You guys are
actually really strong.
We want to put you in the ring
against Tucker and Eric."
But they were too cowardly
to do that.
It's unfortunate that these guys
misinterpreted something,
but it's also a game,
and I've experienced that
in the games before.
- I think right now I just feel
- [crying]
I know she's hurting,
and I hate that.
KEOGHAN:
Taylor, hold your head up.
We still got
two more votes to go.
So, we're gonna keep fighting
right to the end.
Aren't we, Izzy and Paige?
Yeah, we're fighting.
We might not be at the front,
but we fought
to be not the fourth,
all-women team in a row
to be eliminated.
So, I'm interested in how
you came to your decision.
PAIGE:
The two teams that we chose,
they need
to take each other out.
KEOGHAN:
Tucker and Eric, Jag and Jas.
We have a new total here,
and we're coming down
to the final vote.
We voted for
Tucker and Eric
and Izzy and Paige.
We just wanted it
to be a burn vote.
I didn't want
to vote for you guys.
- [sniffles]
- Neither did we.
- Yeah.
- Neither did we.
I was shocked that Taylor
and Kyland voted for us.
PAIGE: She gave this
speech about how frustrating
it feels to be a woman
in this game dominated by men,
while holding a U-Turn board
with the only
all-female team's faces on it.
IZZY: I was really
disappointed in her hypocrisy.
- KEOGHAN: Okay, Tucker and Eric.
- Let's get it.
- Ring it up.
- KEOGHAN: As you can see,
you have a total
of four votes now.
That means
you have been U-Turned.
However, since we have a tie,
we're gonna take another vote
between Jag and Jas
- and Kyland and Taylor.
- JOSEPH: No. No.
No, please, Phil, come on.
Don't do that.
We're burning again.
We vote for Phil.
This is my worst nightmare.
Now I am being forced
to pick
between Taylor and Kyland
and Jag and Jas.
If things are tied up
one more time,
then both teams
will also receive a U-Turn.
- Let's go!
- [laughing]
They're still gonna get first.
Our goal is
to hopefully get a draw,
uh, because that means
both teams are U-Turned,
and then there's all three of us
doing two Detours.
We're voting for Jas and Jag.
We're not gonna be
like Taylor and Kyland.
- Yeah.
- So we're not voting for Taylor and Kyland.
We have
really good relationships
that are still here.
Joseph is my closest friend.
I think Jag and Jas have made
themselves more
of a target than we have, so,
I think we'll get out
of this second U-Turn vote clean
and run our own race
from here on.
If they're both U-turned, Eric
and Tucker are gonna survive.
Eric and Tucker will survive.
If you send just Jas and Jag
to fight Eric and Tucker,
there's a 50-50 shot
Eric and Tucker go home today.
And that's what we need.
Jas and Jag
have thrown us a lifeline..
- I know. I know.
- At multiple times.
I know.
A million dollars on one end,
there's friendship and love
on the other.
Dude, it's my best friend and
my ex. You're making the call.
Okay, I'll make the call.
Everybody's good?
All right, Kyland and Taylor,
we're gonna start with you.
TAYLOR:
Not us.
[laughing]
- Izzy and Paige.
- We have voted for Jas and Jag.
Jag and Jas, I'm hoping
you haven't voted for yourself.
Jack and Chelsie?
CHELSIE: We decided
to U-Turn Jag and Jas.
KEOGHAN:
So this is kind of
a crucial moment right now
for you, Jag and Jas.
Just two votes left.
Tucker and Eric?
- We're just hoping for a three-way tie.
- Trying to
Fishing for a draw, so we voted
for Kyland and Taylor.
Dicey.
It's gonna come down
to a final vote again.
And once again, Joseph,
I take it you have no idea
what decision Adam's made.
I have no idea again.
I couldn't make a decision.
You put my ex and my best friend
next to each other.
What was I supposed to do?
I walked away.
ADAM:
We knew Izzy and Paige
and Chelsie and Jack
were gonna vote Jas and Jag.
So, the question was,
sending Kyland and Taylor
with them or not.
And?
The question was sending
Kyland and Taylor
- with them or not.
- KEOGHAN: And?
I went for the draw.
- Oh my.
- Yeah!
JOSEPH:
Jas and Jag, out of
everyone here, have thrown us
so many lifelines.
I truly, truly hope
Eric and Tucker
do not survive this Detour.
And they work together to
come out, and the race will
- We're right here.
- Yeah.
TAYLOR:
There's extreme disappointment
in Joseph and Adam's decision.
It just showed me
that when push comes to shove,
I don't know that I can rely
on Joseph to show up
and make the hard choices
for me.
Okay, we have three teams
that have been U-Turned.
Tucker and Eric, Jag and Jas,
Kyland and Taylor.
I have your next clue.
- Thank you, sir.
- Thank you.
KEOGHAN:
Good luck
and travel safe.
Go!

- KYLAND: They have the map.
- Okay, let's go.
- You like this.
- Let's go.
JOSEPH:
Damn, they're fast.
They're trying to lose everyone.
- ERIC: This way.
- TUCKER: Down this way.
ERIC:
We're U-Turned.
Like, we need to be as fast
as we can right now.
- PAIGE: They're going down.

- PAIGE: There's a direct route.
- IZZY: Yup.
JAG:
On your left.
- TUCKER: Right here?

JAS:
Go all the way down.

Holy crap, man.

- Right on. Let's go.
- Go. Thank you.
- Can we have a clue, please?
- Hi.
- Go. Detour.
- Detour.
Of course,
we have to do both sides.
- We have to do both.
- All right, Detour.
"Music in the Air
or Olives Everywhere."
The iconic Greek laterna,
an automatic piano
on a backpack,
was once the primary
form of entertainment
here on the streets of Athens.
♪
Adonis has a real passion
for keeping
this fantastic tradition alive,
and is the only laterna maker
in all of Greece.
To crank out this Detour,
teams must pick up a laterna
and carry it
to Monastiraki Square.
Once they've collected
ten euros from the public,
they'll be rewarded with a clue.
The olive tree is seen
as sacred here in Greece
a symbol of culture,
mythology and peace.
Legend has it that
this olive tree was a gift
from the goddess Athena.
These resilient, fruit-bearing
trees can live hundreds,
sometimes thousands of years,
and produce
dozens of distinct,
flavorful olive varieties.
Relying on their taste buds
and memory,
teams must identify
ten varieties of olives
and their corresponding names.
Let's hope they like olives,
because this could take a while.
- Let's get to the bottom.
- We got to start walking down anyway.
- You check the map.
- ERIC: We're gonna go to the music one first.
KYLAND: Let's go. We're gonna
start out with Music in the Air.
TAYLOR: We need directions.
Excuse me, sir. We're trying
to get to Klafthmonos Square.
TUCKER:
Let's do it.
IZZY:
I think through here.
CHELSIE:
We got to get to the Parthenon.
- We have directions for both.
- Yeah, we got both.
- Uh, here you go.
- Okay, let's go.
TUCKER: We know we
got a target on our back.
Nothing's gonna deter us.
Okay, let's go.
TAYLOR:
Excuse us.
- PAIGE: I see it.
- IZZY: I see it, too.
Good job, baby.
JACK:
That's awesome.
Thank you. Detour.
"Olives Everywhere."
Hi.
- Olive tasting.
- We're gonna do olive tasting.
- Let's do it.
- All right.
TUCKER:
Monastiraki Square.
So we need
to find the K Square first.
JAG:
What is this?
JAS: This is maybe
where we come back.
JAG: We have to come back here.
This is Monastiraki Square.
ADAM:
Let's do this.
- Apian
- Apiana.
Just one straight road.
- Thank you so much, you guys.
- Thank you guys.
- I appreciate that. Thank you. Appreciate you.
- Appreciate it.
If you see any other teams
that aren't these two,
- tell them to go the wrong way.
- Yeah.
- Thank you so much.
- All right. Thank you guys.
IZZY:
Yeah, I know. I know.
ERIC:
This is the K square.
TUCKER:
All right, let's get in there,
find the [mutters]
ERIC:
All right, over here.
TUCKER:
This is so fun.
Let's do it.
You got to place it
on the stand,
- so we got to bring everything.
- ERIC: Okay.
So we got
to bring the whole thing.
Dude, let's-let's
both carry them.
Dude, there's there's
- They're right here.
- Oh, I see.
- Let's fold the stand up.
- You got that?
- ERIC: Here we go, baby.
- Yeah.
JAG:
That must be the square.
- TUCKER: There they are.
- ERIC: We can smoke these guys.
ERIC:
Let's go.
- [panting]
- Come on, baby.
Pick up one of 'em.
Here, basket.
TUCKER: Eric, is the
basket still on here?
ERIC:
No.
TUCKER: Damn it, dude.
I thought you grabbed it.
No, you just told me
to grab this.
Grab this. Grab the stand.
Okay, back where we came.
JAG:
All right, let's do this.
We knew exactly how to get to
the next square where we had
to play the laterna
and get tips,
because we had passed by
on our way
to pick up the laterna.
Let's go.
Let's move,
let's move, let's move.
- I got it.
- Is everything right on it?
JOSEPH:
Yeah.
TUCKER:
Go, dude.
What happened?
- TUCKER: He dropped the basket.
- Oh.
- JAS: Make sure I don't drop anything.
- Okay.
TAYLOR:
They dropped it.
TUCKER:
Let's go.
ADAM:
What is in Eric's hand?
Joseph, wait.
Eric's holding something.
JOSEPH:
Their backpack, Adam.
- Come on.
- Okay, okay. Go, go, go.
Set that down. Set that down.
TUCKER:
They're setting up right here.
ERIC:
Dude, that's not it.
We have to go back
where we came from.
ADAM: Joseph, it says, "Place
your laterna on its stand."
"Place"
"Bring everything with you.
Pick up one laterna,
stand and tip basket."
Oh. We didn't
Taylor! Kyland!
Taylor!
Kyland and Taylor
are ahead of us.
- Taylor!
- Kyland!
JOSEPH:
We felt bad about the U-Turn,
so we tried to help them out
as best as we can.
Taylor!
Joseph, we can't.
- Uh, you want to go back and get the stand?
- Yeah.
Okay, let's go. Start running.
They're switching.
Let's go. Let's go.
ERIC:
Let's go. Come on.
JAS:
Run.
- TAYLOR: Oh, my God.
- KYLAND: What?
- Do you have the rack?
- What rack?
TAYLOR: Oh, my God.
There's a stand they're holding.
Oh, lantern, stand
and tip basket.
Forgot to pick up the stand.
KYLAND: Critical mistake,
because we're there
with the two teams we are going
against in this Double U-Turn.
TAYLOR:
Excuse us.
This is not the position
that we want to be in.
KYLAND:
Let's go. Aah!
- Is there one stand missing?
- Yes.
- And you have our tip basket?
- Yes.
- The basket and the stand.
- And the stand.
- We were calling you guys.
- We were screaming your name.
KYLAND: Let's go.
JAG:
Come on, come on, come on.
We're almost there.
We're almost there.
All right, let's, uh
We got to ask somebody,
dude, please.
Yeah.
Here's where we get confused.
Ariana, Ariana, Ariana, Ariana.
- Or is it down that way?
- Ah, she said the main road, right?
CHELSIE:
Ooh, we're behind. We're behind.
IZZY:
I think they went that way.
PAIGE: Okay, cool.
IZZY: We're working real hard,
going real slow. [Laughs]
We're headed to Ariana
to do some olive tasting.
I love olives,
so I'm-I'm stoked.
JAS:
Jaga, set up in the middle.
I don't know how to
You'll help me?
Okay, let go. Okay.
- "Crank your lat" Okay.
- While the I'll Ask. Ask.
- Start asking.
- All right.
- - Ask for euros.

JAS: We knew we
had to get ten euros.

- JAS: Ten euros.
Or a few euros,
whatever you have.
- Jaga, right there.

- Thank you. Thank you.
- Jaga, how much is that?
- How much is this?
- Ten euros. We need ten euros.

- Straight, straight, straight.
TUCKER: I can't be in the front.
I have no idea where I'm going.
- Is this the square?
- Monastiraki Square?
Let's go one more and then left.
There they are.
All right, let's go.
We're on a race
for a million dollars.
Any way we can get ten?
Thank you.
- JAS: We're on a race.
- How much is this?
- Right here.
- Is that a two?
- Thank you so much. Thank you.

Thank you! Thank you!
- They're already here.
- I know.
- What's the best path forward? This?
- Up, up, up, up.
- All the way up, left.
- On what?
- Let's just keep going up.
- JAS: Good luck. Good luck.
JAG:
Good luck. Good luck.
JAS: We're the first team
out of there.
- Come on, Jaga. Come on.
- Excuse me, excuse me.
- We're in a race.
- We got this.
JAG: We had to get
to our next Detour, which was.
Olives Everywhere.
- JAS: Let's cook.
- JAG: We have a couple minutes
in front of Tucker and Eric,
and we'll take anything
that we can get.
Whoo!
ERIC: Does anybody
feel like handing out euros?
Ten euros.
Please. We're in a race.
We're in a race
for a million dollars.
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much.
Oh, I just saw a sign
for Dioskouron.
PAIGE:
Go, baby, go. [Sighs wearily]
IZZY:
This is tiring as hell.
If we don't see Izzy and Paige
behind us,
then we screwed up.
Where are we?
I think it
I think it was down.
JACK: I thought she
said stay on the road.
Okay.
[laterna playing lively tune]
- Who enjoys this lovely music
- [shouts joyously]
on this beautiful,
beautiful turnstile here?
A handstand?
Eric, I got it.
Eric, spin. Spin.
Spin that. I got it.
I'll do it.
Some guy came up to me,
and he's like,
"If you can do a handstand,
I'll give you ten euros."
Little does he know
I've been doing handstands
since I've been little.
So then
I start walking on my hands.
Let's go. There's the ten, baby.
- ERIC: Thank you, sir.
- TUCKER: Thank you.
ERIC:
Thank you guys so much.
- Okay.
- [laughs]
- ERIC: Thank you, sir.
- TUCKER: Thank you.
[playing pretty tune]
- Uh, you know where to go, right?
- ERIC: Yeah.
- KYLAND: Excuse us.
- TAYLOR: Excuse us.
- Excuse us.
- Come on.
- Hello, everyone!
- Hello! We need
- Opa! Opa!
- Can you please? Here.
- Can you please?
- Yeah.
Can you guys please help us
raise ten euro? Please?
- Ten euro.
- You'd help us so much.
- Ten euro right here.
- Everybody, please.
- JAS: Come on.
- JAG: Excuse me. Excuse me.
- Let's go.
- JAG: Haven't seen Kyland and Taylor yet.
Tucker and Eric
can catch up, though.
Diplari.
Yup. Yup, it's up there.
Apiana.
- Hi. - Hi. Let's go.
- Hi. First ones here.
- JAG: Are we the first ones here?
- JAS: First ones here.
WOMAN:
Yes, you're the first ones.
- I'm going to explain about olives.
- Yes.
Here we have a green olive
from Chalkidiki.
- JAS: Oh. Chalkidiki.
- It's a plain, simple olive
from Northern Greece.
Here we have alatsolies.
It's quite bitter.
It's a throumba from Crete.
I'm not a big fan of olives.
You're not a big fan.
Don't worry.
- He loves olives.
- Okay, so
JAG: What I focused on primarily
was just the name of the olive
and exactly what it looked like
and associating the two.
This is a very unique product.
JAG: It was not a
moment for us to, like,
slow down and taste olives
and be like,
"Ah, this one's very nice."
We are just in, like,
go, go, go mode.
- WOMAN: Here we have a
- PAIGE: Aah!
- [horn honking]
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
The big market on our right
is where we'll turn left.
CHELSIE: "Roman Agora to
the right, past the green field,
right on" Yep.
- JACK: Should be coming up, right?
- Right.
- KYLAND: Thank you guys so much.
- We only need ten euros.
KYLAND:
Oh, yes.
- Thank you, thank you.
- Thank you so much.
- We only need five euros.
- ADAM: Wait. Joseph, Joseph.
- Wait, wait. There's another show coming.
- [laughs]
- Here we go. Paper. Take it. Take it.
- Thank you. Thank you.

- KYLAND: All right, babe.
Hey, we need two more!
- Two more, and we're done!
- Yes.
- Thank you. Is that two?
- ADAM: Yes.
- That's one and that's two. That's two!
- Yes!
- Yeah.
- You're welcome.
Let's go.
Thank you so much.
Okay.
- Route Info.
- Route Info.
"Roll a boulder up
the Hills of Muses"
BOTH: "to receive
your next clue from Sisyphus."
KEOGHAN:
Greek mythology is packed
with drama, adventure,
and life lessons
that continue
to influence modern-day stories.
The myth about Sisyphus is that
he was cursed by Greek god Zeus
to push a boulder uphill
for eternity,
symbolizing the frustration
that we all feel
about never
completing something.
Teams must now attempt
anAmazing Race version
of a Sisyphean task by rolling
a giant ball up this hill.
Let's hope they don't take
an eternity to get there.
- Thank you, everyone!
- Thank you! Thank you!
We're here on Saturdays.
[laughs]
Taxi? Can you take us?
Thank you so much.
So, I think we might be in first
place right now.
This would be huge.
We might get our first first.
The only thing it took was
to literally.
- U-Turn all three
- U-Turn three teams.
- top three teams.
- Top teams. [Laughs]
WOMAN:
Here is throumba from Thásos.
It's a little bit bitter,
a little bit salty.
This one tastes like whiskey.
That one tastes even more
like whiskey.
WOMAN:
Okay. Get your new toothpick.
Jasu, you want
to just memorize these three?
- Yes, yeah, yeah.
- It's a little bit very meaty.
- Okay.
- And soft flesh here.
We're going left here.
- ERIC: Hello. Thank you.
- WOMAN 2: Guys, come here. Come here.
- Okay, Jasu, take a toothpick.
- WOMAN: Okay.
And you and you try, please.
TUCKER:
We got to the olive spot,
and Jas and Jag,
they were there first.
We knew we had to go quick.
- Chalkidiki.
- Mm-hmm.
I got the green ones.
JAS: Well, these
black ones are the hardest ones.
Okay, yeah, I got the green
and the brown ones.
- Let's just go and check. Let's check.
- WOMAN: Okay?
Yes. Come on.
Excuse me. Excuse me.
This station.
Uh, green olives
are the Chalkidiki.
I need I need this one.
Kalamata sun-dried olives.
Put that here.
Green olives of Amfissa.
JAG:
When we got to our station,
I was able
to do my half pretty quickly,
but a couple of these black ones
that he memorized,
he wasn't sure about.
They look very similar.
JAS: I knew less
than half of my olives.
I was planning on just
switching the guesses around
till we get it right.
- Two olives he memorized.
- [laughs]
Like, we just got U-Turned.
We're fighting for our lives.
He's like,
- "I can remember two things right now."
- Two olives.
- The black olives are
- Here's If you know yours,
- we just need to skip the black.
- I got it, I got it, I got mine.
- Uh
- Jasu, is this this?
- This?
- Um
We're here. We're here.
- Hello. Come on. Come on.
- We're here. We're here
- I'll get the raisin ones, okay?
- TUCKER: Yeah, okay.
- And I'll get these other ones.
- ERIC: All right.
- JAS: Uh, I don't know.
- JAG: Let's just see.
- Check, please.
- JAS: Check.
Hello, guys. Welcome.
Let me see your job now.
JAS:
This is pure luck.
- No?
- Congratulations.
- Yes. Let's go. Let's go.
- What? What?
- Congratulations.
- What? Pure luck. - Yeah. Yeah.
- Thank you. Thank you.
- Oh, my God. - Well, I have something
- for you now, right? Yes?
- Yes! Yes! - Thank you, thank you
- Oh, my gosh.
- This is yours.
- Thank you. Thank you.
- Oh, my gosh.
"Hills of Muses."
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Uh take to go right here?
- Kill it, guys. Kill it.
- Y'all got it.
TUCKER:
I got mine down. I got
this one, this one, this one,
this one, that one. I got those.
Hills of Muses? Yes.
Don't know.
Might be down
JACK:
Let's figure this out.
Those I got.
The Megara
and Amfissa are similar.
- All right.
- TUCKER: Are you good?
WOMAN:
Kalamata olive, the same
- variety here.
- But sun-dried.
Yes.
- We got to go down there.
- Ready? Good luck.
- Yes, thank you, thank you.
- Good luck, guys.
TUCKER: The kalamata are the ones
that just look like grapes, right?
- Uh
- Those?
These are kalamatas.
These are
the kalamata sun-dried.
- WOMAN: Come and join us.
- KYLAND: Thank you.
I'm doing all of the throumbas,
and so I'm gonna figure out
my three throumbas again.
- I think
- I think it's this,
'cause then she said
these were smaller.
ERIC:
No, the Megaras are smaller.
- TUCKER: The creamy ones?
- These are the bitter ones.
We got down to the three
that looked very similar.
These three shriveled,
blacker olives.
And the key difference
in those was the taste.
One was a bit sweeter,
one was a bit more bitter.
ERIC:
All right, we're gonna check?
MAN:
Hello.
- Hello, sir.
- Thank you.
Let me see your job.
- Congratulations. - Yes!
- Let's go! Let's go!
- My guy. Let's go.
- Thank you, thank you - Bravo.
- Thank you so much.
- Clue for us?
- Ah, you're my guy.
- It's yours.
- Thank you so much, sir.
- Bye.
- Thank you. We needed this.
- We needed this.
Bye-bye.
- Let's go.
- Let's go, let's go.
ERIC:
Crushing it.
- Hurts to win, baby.
- TUCKER: Let's go. Let's go.
ERIC: Back to the main street.
Back to the main street.
KYLAND: Did Jack and
Chelsie come with you?
- PAIGE: No.
- KYLAND: Oh.
Okay. We didn't see them
at the other one.
- IZZY: Did you finish the other one?
- KYLAND: Yup.
IZZY:
Oh, boy.
[upbeat music playing]
JACK:
It's got to be here.
- Wait. That's the other thing.
- But that
- JACK: That's not ours. Yeah.
- That's the other one.
We're lost, we're last.
Where the freak is it?
[Tucker whistling]
Taxi?
Eric and Tucker are right there.
- CHELSIE: Is it that way?
- Yeah. No. Olives?
TUCKER: Straight down
here and then go right, then left.
- CHELSIE: Thank you guys.
- TUCKER: Yep.
ERIC:
All right, there's a taxi.
CHELSIE: They just
finished their olive Detour.
So they're headed
to their next one.
So they're a Detour ahead of us.
They blew through that fast.
TAYLOR:
Can you do the
black ones?
KYLAND: I hate olives.
A lot of them look similar,
and I was like, "Oh, my God,
I'm gonna have
to taste these olives."
- IZZY: Do you want to try?
- PAIGE: Yeah. - Good luck.
- Okay.
- I think it's that way.
- IZZY: Okay. Okay.
- Let's go.
- Hello.
- MAN: Hello.
Okay. I want to try this.
Let me try.
IZZY:
Give me this.
PAIGE:
Chalkidiki.
- Okay.
- Welcome. How are you?
Efcharistó.
That one's super salty.
This is super salty.
Uh, no, but it's bitter.
- Oh, bitter. Okay.
- Yep.
Efcharistó.
- Yeah! - Ah!
- Ah!
- [laughs]
- Let's go.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
That might be even
more delicious than olives.
- Yeah.
- Thank you so much.
- IZZY: Good job, baby.
- PAIGE: That's the most olives
- I've ever eaten in my entire life.
- IZZY: Taxi! Taxi!
- Come on.
- We are going
to Dora Stratou Theatre.
- WOMAN: Hello.
- CHELSIE: Hi, hello. Hey, guys.
- Welcome to Ariana.
- Yes.
Do you like olives?
- Yes, we love olives.
- Welcome. Okay.
Chalk is like kids.
- Chalkidiki.
- Ready?
- WOMAN: Good luck, guys.
- KYLAND: Thank you. - Thank you.
- Where are we going, babe?
- Right here. Yay.
- Hello.
- Hello.
MAN:
Hello.
TAYLOR:
Sun-dried.
I think this is mine.
WOMAN:
Very crunchy.
- Mmm.
- [speaks indistinctly]
- You like this?
- That's good. That can go in a martini.
Those are gonna be very hard.
- We good?
- Yeah.
KYLAND:
Yeah, let's do a check.
- Welcome. How are you?
- We're good. How are you?
- Good. How are you doing?
- Fine. Yeah.
- No.
- Okay.
TAYLOR:
Okay.
KYLAND:
Let's go double-check, babe.
JOSEPH:
If you can
wait there for us,
we're gonna finish the game,
come back
and go to the next place.
Thank you so much.
This is us.
Oh, here.
There's Joseph and Adam.
- Right there, right there
- There's Joseph and Adam.
- Okay, we'll be right back.
- Oh, my God. We're up big-time.
- Oh, let's go!
- Let's go!
Let's go. Eric and Tucker are
probably already ahead of us.
- Let's go. Let's go.
- Okay.
How did we just lose first?
JAS:
Boulders!
- Oh, boy.
- JOSEPH: Oh, my God.
Front left, front left.
Here, marked path.
It's just up the path.
Get your sugar up.
You just tell me where to go.
Like, guide it,
- and I'll-I'll
- To your right, to your right.
JOSEPH:
After all the running we did,
Adam's blood sugar
has plummeted.
So I kind of take the lead
in pushing the boulder.
ADAM:
Your left.
- We're the first team here.
- We're the first team.
- All the boulders are still here.
- Feels good.
The boys are buzzing.
Good work. Good work.
- Oh, my arms.
- Me, too.
CHELSIE:
Mount Athos throumba.
WOMAN:
Megara throumba.
Sweet and salty.
- Sweet and salty together.
- Yes.
- Ready? Let's go.
- KYLAND: Yep.
- WOMAN: Good luck, guys, again.
- BOTH: Thank you.
JACK:
Okay, let's try it.
- Good luck.
- Thank you.
TAYLOR: Megara throumba.
They were sweet and salty.
I might need to go back.
- Let me just focus.
- Black bead was yours, right?
JACK: Is this the
black bead or this one?
- This has to be it.
- That's a green olive.
All right, let's try it.
I feel better.
- Hello. We're gonna check again.
- It's better now?
- I think we may be better this one.
- Yeah.
Wait. Mount olives. Mount.
No, this one.
- I feel pretty good.
- I feel good.
- Oh, wow. Okay. All right.
- No.
KYLAND:
Taylor, come on. Let's get it,
figure out what we're missing.
- CHELSIE: Hi.
- Welcome.
- Nope?
- No.
- CHELSIE: Okay. Thank you.
- You have to try again.
CHELSIE:
Okay. Try it again.
JAS:
So, what's his name? Syphilis?
JAG:
Sisyphus.
JAS: He had to do
this for eternity, right?
- Yeah.
- Sisyphus had it tough.
- Wait. Wait. Don't let it roll down.
- I'm not, I'm not.
Lean it. Lean it towards me,
lean it towards me.
Stop, stop, stop, stop. Stop.
You're going into a tree.
Come this way.
- [Joseph sighs]
- You're good.
[mutters] How far are we?
ADAM:
I don't know.
JAS:
Our sister is
- giving birth today.
- She's having a baby today.
And it's the first kid
in the family.
This one's for her.
She's our motivation right now.
ERIC: We think we might
be in second place right now,
even having to do two Detours.
We think that the teams
that didn't get Double U-Turned
- are kind of walking
- Further behind us.
Yeah, and, like, walking slowly.
And I don't know if they think
that these Detours
are gonna take us a long time,
but it's not how
I'd be running the race
- if I only had a single U-Turn.
- Hell no.
- Not me.
- We're flying through this right now.
IZZY: We did hear
from Kyland and Taylor
that they had already
completed the other Detour.
Um, we assume that means
Eric and Tucker
and Jag and Jas have as well.
- I'm trying not to get you know
- Yeah.
overly frustrated
by things I can't control.
Yeah.
- I know these two.
- I know this one.
- Okay.
- I know the green ones.
It was this, the dark one,
but these two look
- exactly the same.
- So we just got to taste them.
- We just got to taste 'em
- JACK: Okay.
Yeah, I feel good.
- Good luck again.
- Thank you.
- Green olives, kalamata
- Okay, let's go, Dad.
TAYLOR:
This is Mount Athos.
KYLAND: This is great.
This is great. These are mine.
JACK:
"Thrombosa." Let me taste it.
CHELSIE:
Kalamata
JACK:
That's not it.
Must be this one.
KYLAND:
Okay.
One more time.
I feel good this time.
Oh, wow.
Babe, do you know?
MAN:
You have to go back. Sorry.
- Okay, yeah, let's go back.
- Okay? - Okay.
- Thank you.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Try that.
- WOMAN: Come on.
- KYLAND: All right, babe.
It's these two, maybe,
so let me make sure.
- JACK: Yeah!
- Yeah!
- Yes! Thank you, sir.
- Thank you, my friend.
- Thank you. Thank you.
- Bravo.
- Appreciate it.
- Thank you.
- CHELSIE: All right, we got to get a taxi.
- WOMAN: Okay.
- You've got this. Good job!
- Yes. - KYLAND: They finished.
- They finished.
- CHELSIE: Thank you. - [Taylor sighs]
KYLAND:
It's all right. It's okay.
CHELSIE:
Taxi. Taxi. Taxi.
This one I can't figure out,
but if you understand it,
let's try it.
These three are good,
- so it's between these two.
- TAYLOR: Mm-hmm.
KYLAND:
Is this the bitter one?
- Yeah, that's bitter.
- That's bitter.
- TAYLOR: Yeah.
- Okay. All right, let's try it.
MAN:
I believe in you.
We're trying not
to disappoint you anymore.
[laughs]
- No.
- KYLAND: Okay.
- MAN: Unfortunately.
- We can try again.
TAYLOR:
Oh, my God.
JACK:
Hey, we killed the olives.
The best thing that could happen
for us is three teams
being U-Turned.
You know, best-case scenario.
MAN:
No.
KYLAND:
Thank you.
You should be more careful.
TAYLOR:
Oh, my God.
Damn!
KYLAND:
This is a little embarrassing.
Everything else we feel good
besides these three.
Yes. Yes.
Okay. So let's try those two,
and then, if not,
then we rotate again.
- Are you sure now? Huh?
- No, but we're hopeful.
- At last! Yeah.
- Oh! There we go.
- Thank you. Thank you.
- Yeah.
Thank you. Thank you so much.
- TAYLOR: Thank you so much, sir.
- Thank you so much.
- Thank you. Thank you.
- Congratulations.
- TAYLOR: Let's go.
- KYLAND: Let's do it.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
WOMAN:
Good luck. Perfect!
JAS:
Come on. Push. Push.
- Yeah, right there. I see him.
- JAS: Oh, we see him.
We're coming!
- Sisyphus!
- JAG: You're so strong.
How do you do this for eternity?
- Hey, thank you.
- Good job.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Please. Please. Please.
- Route Info.
"Find the stone path
and follow signs
for Dora Stratou Theatre
to find your next clue."
This is the stone path.
[whooping]
ADAM: Go, right ahead
of us. To the guide, Joseph.
- To the guide.
- JOSEPH: Oh, my God. Thank God.
- Oh, thank you so much.
- Whew.
"Find the stone path."
Let's do this.
ERIC:
Tuck, up here. Tuck, this way.
- You got it. Want me to guide?
- ERIC: Yeah, you guide.
TUCKER:
More to the left.
PAIGE:
Okay, go to the outside
- so you can see where the path is.
- Okay.
- I see it.
- PAIGE: Me, too.
IZZY:
This is tiring as hell.
Oh, found it.
Roadblock.
- "Who's the alpha?"
- You are.
- I'm the alpha.
- He's gonna do it.
KEOGHAN: For anyone who's
ever been part of a fraternity
or sorority,
these capital letters
of the Greek alphabet
will look familiar.
The lowercase letters, however,
are not so well-known,
which is exactly why we're using
them in this Roadblock
when we test teams'
linguistical mastery.
The task appears simple.
Just memorize these 24 letters.
Once they can correctly
recite their alpha, beta, gammas
to this ancient Greek scholar,
they'll be rewarded with a clue.
JAG: It's gonna be
some Greek letters.
JAS: This is perfect!
This is your Roadblock.
He's really good at memory.
That is his strength.
- Okay. Hello.
- You got it.
JAS:
You got this.
- MAN: Try to remember. Alpha.
- Alpha.
Beta, gamma, delta.
We have
to memorize the Greek alphabet
and then recite it.
Alpha, beta, gamma. Uh
Alpha, beta. Okay.
I don't know anything
about the Greek alphabet.
To me, it was just symbols.
It could have been hieroglyphics
for all I care.
I was just gonna memorize it.
Mu, nu, xi,
omicron, pi.
Mu, nu, xi, omicron, pi.
Last one.
[groans]
TUCKER:
No, no, no, no, no!
It's tough, dude. It's tough.
[groaning]
[panting]
IZZY:
We're pushing
this rock up this hill
like Sisyphus.
The metaphor
for our game so far.
Rho, sigma, tau, upsilon.
- Phi, chi, psi, omega.
- MAN: Yes.
Thank you.
- Hello.
- Hello.
- Okay.
- Ready?
Yes, I'm ready.
Alpha,
beta,
gamma,
delta.
I was too excited.
I didn't pay attention
to any of the symbols.
I just said everything in order.
Psi, omega.
I'm sorry.
Okay.
Completely wrong.
All of the letters
are jumbled up.
The symbols,
the symbols, the symbols.
That's when I decided,
let me just memorize
what all these symbols
look like,
and then I'll learn what
the letter is for that symbol.
Okay, got it.
ADAM:
Clue box.
"Who's the alpha?"
I'm gonna be the alpha.
Hello.
- Alpha, beta, gamma, delta.
- JAG: Hey, hey.
- Epsilon.
- This is not gonna help.
We have to figure out what
the symbols are with everything.
I just memorized the first line,
what it looks like.
Try to go through it and
memorize what the second line
- symbols are.
- Can we work together on this?
- Yes, yes.
- Okay, okay.
Jag says,
"Let's work together on this.
"You memorize the second row.
"I'll memorize the first
and third row,
"and that way we'll repeat them
back to each other
and we'll be good."
So I'm like,
"Okay, that's a game plan."
I'm gonna go get a check.
CHELSIE: Taylor and Kyland
were still at the olives
when we left,
so that's a good sign.
But I don't know if they already
did their other Detour,
so we don't know
where they're at.
TAYLOR:
No matter what happens, this is
an incredible experience
for us to just grow on our own
and together.
The Amazing Race
will test you and push you
in ways that
you just haven't experienced.
It feels good to know that
I have an amazing,
amazing, sweet soul
that'll just keep me
in the right headspace
to get the job done.
You know, the longer races,
the more we have
to our advantage, so
TUCKER:
He's right there. Let's go!
Stop it.
All righty.
Thank you very much.
Ooh, that was tough.
Let's start.
JOSEPH:
Upsilon.
Eta.
Theta.
- I-I don't know.
- [buzzer sounds]
JAG: Do you know
what the second line is?
- The whole thing?
- JOSEPH: Not yet.
Oh, do it, do it, do it, do it.
Hello.
- Efcharistó.
- Oh.
- Thank you.
- Thank you so much.
JAG:
Psi.
Eta. Mu.
It's easy to mess up any
of these letters.
A lot of them are very similar.
Like,
there's three of them
that look like O's,
and one of them
is a regular "O."
One of them has an "O" with a
line through it, and one of them
has an "O,"
but a little squiggly on top.
So it goes psi
eta mu.
TUCKER:
There it is.
All right,
Tucker's the alpha on this.
On this, let's be clear.
TUCKER:
Alpha, beta, zeta, epsilon.
Something like that.
Alpha, beta, gamma, delta.
- ADAM: Hey!
- JAS: Oh, we knew it!
- We knew it.
- We-we called it.
- JAS: What the hell?
- ADAM: Hey.
- Next question.
- Hey.
- Ah! - Wait. Wait.
- I'm sorry.
- No, I'm pumped, dude.
- No, you're No worries.
U-Turned team,
almost eliminated team.
U-Turned team.
- Okay.
- Try again.
Psi. Psi?
Eta. Mu.
Kappa.
Tau.
Iota.
Omicron.
Zeta.
- Okay, I don't remember.
- [buzzer sounds]
I'm feeling like I'm making
slow progress, but I'm doing it.
Uh, beta.
- I don't know.
- [buzzer sounds]
- Thank you.
- IZZY: Yes. Do you see it?
[Paige laughs]
I'm the alpha.
She is my alpha,
I'm the princess.
Come here.
PAIGE: I wasn't in a
sorority or anything.
I don't know
that they would want me, but
about half of the Greek alphabet
I already knew just
from random life experiences.
- Iota.
- PAIGE: Iota.
- Kappa. Lambda.
- Kappa.
Lambda?
TUCKER:
Alpha.
Beta.
Hmm.
- I don't know. All right.
- [buzzer sounds]
JACK: I'm gonna just go,
and you steer.
JACK: Wait. Go
right. We can't bust it.
CHELSIE: Dad, you're
going to run over a turtle.
- JACK: Huh?
- Go Go You have to go left.
JACK:
Okay.
I see them on the path, Dad.
Just push.
Is it phi, sigma, rho, alpha?
- JAG: Phi, sigma, rho, chi, omega.
- PAIGE: Zeta, eta.
No, I'm pretty sure
alpha's in the second line.
It's not, trust me.
I was hoping that it would
be easier to work together,
but it was truly
so hard to focus
on what the symbols
all looked like.
At that point, I just decided
to, like, memorize
the first line, the second line
and the third line.
We got to move on.
Psi.
Eta.
Uh, mu.
Rho.
Chi.
Omega.
Xi?
Gamma.
Nu.
Upsilon.
Excellent.
Thank you so much.
- Go this way.
- Thank you.
Lookie here!
- Yo, let's go!
- Okay.
Oh!
Come on, come on,
come on, come on.
BOTH:
"Race to the Pit Stop."
Named after a former mayor
of Athens,
Kotzia Square is famous
for
its neoclassical architecture,
including
the National Bank of Greece.
The last team
to check in here
will be eliminated.
Let's go! Let's go!
- "The last team to check in will be eliminated."
- Yeah!
We're racing
for first right now.
We're racing
for first place right now.
CHELSIE:
This way, to the left.
Hello.
- Thank you so much.
- All right.
Thank you.
JOSEPH:
Psi.
Eta. Upsilon. Kappa.
Psi, eta, upsilon, kappa.
Jag got his check,
and he's gone.
So I've just memorized
the second row for no reason.
So I'm like, "Okay,
let me start from the top here."
Psi, eta, upsilon, kappa
is all I have. Sorry.
[buzzer sounds]
PAIGE: Joseph has no idea
what he's doing, does he?
He's all backwards.
It goes psi, eta, mu.
PAIGE: That is exactly
where I just got to.
I'm not holding
anything back from you.
TUCKER:
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
JOSEPH:
What do you have so far?
I don't quite have I'm just
trying to figure out the ones
that are obvious versus not.
Psi. "Etna." Mu.
Kappa.
- Okay, I'll come back to it.
- [buzzer sounds]
Phi.
Thank you.
[buzzer sounds]
- KYLAND: Boulder. Is that it?
- Oh, my God.
All right, I need you
to see the path, babe,
- and just tell me right or left.
- Okay.
- This is I need no help pushing this.
- All right.
CHELSIE:
Here it is.
"Who's the alpha?"
Want me to do it or you?
Yeah, you do it today.
Let's go. Let's go.
You got this.
Alpha, beta, gamma, delta.
Psi, eta, upsilon, kappa, tau.
Psi, eta, upsilon, kappa, tau.
Psi, eta, upsilon, kappa, tau.
- Uh, I don't know.
- [buzzer sounds]
- TAYLOR: Hello.
- Is this good?
- Thank you.
- Thank you very much.
- We appreciate it.
- Thank you so much.
- All right, stone path.
- Let's go.
KYLAND:
All right.
- JAG: Phil, look who made it!
- JAS: Phil!
We made it!
Phil!
Welcome to Athens, Greece.
- Thank you. Thank you.
- Thank you. Thank you for having us.
I'm the Greek goddess Athena.
- Athena!
- Athena! Let's go.
Jag and Jas,
you are the first team
in Amazing Racehistory
that has ever checked in first
after being U-Turned.
[both cheering]
Oh, my God.
And I do have some great news
for you.
As the winners
of this leg of the race,
you have won OneKeyCash
from Expedia,
which you can put towards a trip
for two
to Siem Reap, Cambodia.
[both whooping]
Expedia has designed
a recommended
five-night unique experience
exploring ancient wonders,
such as Angkor Wat
and the ruins of Ta Prohm,
a countryside tour
on quad bikes,
and a local food-tasting tour.
- Oh. Let's go.
- I like that. I like the sound of that.
JAG:
When we got U-Turned,
we did not imagine
in a million years
that we would be first
or fighting for first.
It was just a great moment
because everything
that we've worked so hard for,
we're seeing it pay off
because we're running so strong
right now.
JOSEPH:
Mu. Upsilon.
CHELSIE: I don't need help.
I have a pretty good memory.
OnBig Brother,
every memorization game
that we had, I won.
So I'm confident in my ability
to memorize these symbols.
Phi.
TUCKER:
Kappa. Theta.
Uh ion.
I made sure I had the alphabet
down. I was happy with it.
Uh
And then when you get down
there, it's just like
- I don't know.
- [buzzer sounds]
Oh, my God. [Laughs]
- Yes.
- Start.
Psi.
Eta.
Mu.
Ooh. Omega?
Zeta. Gamma.
Nu.
Upsilon.
No. Sorry.
Thank you.
"Learn to recite the letters
of the Greek alphabet
for an ancient scholar
to receive your next clue."
- Let's go.
- You got it?
Babe, you got this.
TAYLOR: I was in a sorority
when I was in college.
"Phee" or phi?
- Phi.
- Phi.
- Phi, chi, psi
- Phi, chi, psi, omega.
Psi.
Eta. Mu.
Kappa. Tau.
Omicron. Zeta.
Phi. Sigma.
Nu. Upsilon.
- Excellent.
- [gasps] Can I hug you?
- Thank you so much.
- This way.
Thank you, thank you.
ADAM:
Good job, Chelsie.
- Good job, Chelsie.
- Go, girl. - Good job, Chels.
- Thank you, guys.
- Good job.
"Race to the Pit Stop
at Kotzia Square
and find Phil on the mat."
- Okay, see you guys. Good luck.
- CHELSIE: This way?
JACK:
Way to go, girl!
IZZY:
Wow.
- Wait. Where's their bag?
- Thanks for your vote.
That was very impressive.
That's impressive.
That's amazing that they did it.
Rho.
Uh, that one's psi.
Upsilon.
- I'm sorry.
- Thanks.
It's completely jumbled.
Beta. Eta. Upsilon.
- No. I'm sorry.
- Okay.
- It's about rounds. Just go slow.
- TAYLOR: Okay.
You're gonna beat Tucker.
Oh.
It's not in the order.
Hmm.
Psi.
Nu.
[sighs]
I'll give it another try.
Yes. Thank you.
- [buzzer sounds]
- Okay. I can do this.
I can do this.
Hello. Psi.
Eta.
Mu. Kappa.
Sigma.
Rho. Chi.
Gamma.
Nu. Upsilon.
- Excellent.
- Yes!
- Oh, my God, thank you so much.
- You have to go
Dude, that is hard.
ADAM: Come on, come on,
come on, come on.
Let's go, let's go.
PAIGE:
Psi.
Eta.
Mu.
Epsilon.
Xi.
Delta.
And upsilon.
Thank you very much.
IZZY:
Let's go, baby. Good job.
You're amazing.
BOTH:
Let's go.
Yeah, yeah, the race is
never over till it's over.
- You know? So
- Exactly. Unpredictable.
Psi. Eta.
If I can just
get ahead of Tucker,
I know we have this in the bag.
Upsilon.
Okay. I can do this.
You're so close.
Psi. Eta. Mu.
It was down to Taylor and I.
She seems very book-smart,
so I had
to take some deep breaths
and just focus
and just know
I could get this done.
Gamma. Nu.
Upsilon.
What? Dude, I'm done, man.
I can't even tell you
where I'm messing up.
TAYLOR: Tucker had so many
attempts at that Roadblock.
This giant that everyone
has been talking about
for nine legs of this race was
still relearning the alphabet.
So I knew
I had to get this one done.
If you'd like
to go to amazing places
on an amazing race
around the world,
then go to cbs.com/casting
and apply now.
TUCKER:
Delta.
I'm up there trying
to figure out
what letters am I messing up.
The pressure was intense.
[quietly]:
Omicron. Theta.
CHELSIE:
I know Tucker, and I know
some of his weaknesses
because I've played with him
in Big Brother.
So, when it comes
to certain mental comps,
there might be some challenges
for him.
JOSEPH:
The U-Turn was definitely
successful
in slowing Eric and Tucker down.
PAIGE:
Tucker is flailing.
- Good. Oh.
- Tucker is flailing.
Tucker really may not be able
to do this.
- Okay, let's not Yeah.
- If Taylor can pull this out.
- TUCKER: Epsilon. Delta. Zeta.
- Upsilon.
I think I got it this time.
I think I just messed up rho.
Psi.
Eta. Mu.
Kappa. "X-I." Xi?
Beta.
Theta. Nu.
Upsilon.
No.
I don't know
what I'm doing wrong, man.
I'm trying my hardest.
I'll hate myself forever.
Let's rock this bad boy.
Psi.
Oh, no.
Oh, eta. [Chuckles]
Um, mu.
TUCKER:
I got to xi that time.
I have epsilon, I have zeta.
Chi.
Omega.
I got Delta that time.
Maybe that was it.
Nu. Upsilon!
- Very nice.
- Let's go!
Thank you. Thank you.
Run, baby. Let's go.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
TUCKER: We're gonna get it this
time, and then my backpack.
Psi.
Eta. Mu.
Kappa. Tau.
That one's xi.
That's delta.
Gamma. Nu. Upsilon.
- Excellent.
- Thank you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Let's go, Eric!
ERIC:
We still got time. All right?
It's all right, dude.
We can still do it.
They left, like,
two minutes ago.
- [Tucker groans loudly]
- It's all right.
TUCKER:
No, it's not.
Sorry. Excuse us.
Excuse us.
KEOGHAN:
Jack and Chelsie.
- CHELSIE: Hey, Phil. Hi.
- KEOGHAN: Look at you.
JOSEPH:
He should be somewhere here.
- Oh, I see it, I see it.
- You see it?
Thank you.
[whooping]
What?
We're coming!
- We're coming.
- Hey!
[laughter]
[indistinct chatter]
Welcome to Athens, Greece.
- Whoo!
- Thanks for having us. - Yes.
Three teams
that were not U-Turned today,
and I am pleased to tell you
that you are teams number two.
Yes!
Joseph and Adam, that would
make you team number three.
- [both whooping]
- And Izzy and Paige,
lucky number four.
- Thank you, Phil.
- Yeah, there it is. [Laughs]
I want to know what was going
through your mind today
during that vote.
I mean, it got dramatic.
- If Taylor and Kyland come
- CHELSIE: Yes.
and took out Eric and Tucker,
we made the right decision,
then, because
we needed two teams to have
an opportunity
to take those two out.
KYLAND:
Only one team behind us.
TAYLOR:
We have to beat them.
You know, we need to find Phil.
It's not over till it's over.
Anything can happen, especially
with this traffic here.
We don't want to end up in
a footrace with Tucker and Eric.
Oh, my God, no.
TUCKER:
If you can just fly there, man.
Yeah, we're in a race
for survival right now.
Last team just left
two or three minutes before us.
- [horns tooting]
- TAYLOR: Now it's just a matter
of dealing with traffic.
Oh, my God.
I just want to get there.
- [horn honks]
- [exhales]
How far? Just straight
and there on the right?
- Yeah.
- Yeah, let's just run.
Yeah, we're going to get out.
- Thank you.
- Thanks.
ERIC:
Let's go, Tucker.
Run, run.
We still got time, for sure.
[horn honking]
ERIC:
We still got time, baby.
TUCKER:
Ah! Let's go.
KYLAND: You see him?
You see him anywhere?
Oh. There, there, there, there.
There.
Oh, perfect. Perfect.
Perfect. Perfect. Perfect.
- Thank you, Phil.
- Proud of you guys. - We got it, guys.
[all screaming]
TAYLOR:
Let's go!
[all whooping]
[cheering]
KEOGHAN: Kyland and
Taylor, after being U-Turned
- here in Athens
- By our best friends!
- By our best friends.
- I am
pleased to tell you that you
are officially team number five.
Whoo!
KEOGHAN: Oh, now, Taylor,
you were fighting it out.
It was Tucker and yourself,
correct, going back and forth?
You know, at the end of the day,
it was being in a sorority
and knowing the Greek alphabet
through that
that helped me win in the end.
So feminism wins
in the end today.
We wanted Tucker and Eric gone.
This opens up the game
for all of us.
- All of us.
- And that makes us so happy.
The giant has been slain.
[panting]
Tucker and Eric, unfortunately,
you were unable to recover,
and I am very sorry to tell you
that you have been eliminated
from the race.
- Yeah.
- [sighs]
You can't beat up on yourself.
I know your brother's
not beating up on you.
Yeah, I'm trying not to,
but it stinks.
- Yeah.
- It was a great experience.
Just wish
I could keep doing it with him.
- Right. Yeah.
- It's a tough pill to swallow.
There's nothing
he can do to let me down.
I'm so proud of him,
I'm so proud
of what we've done on this race.
I mean, he's my best friend.
You know, he's my brother,
we've gone through
everything together,
and I'll be proud of him
until the day I die.
TUCKER:
Take it on the chin,
- and tomorrow's a new day.
- Yeah.
TUCKER: Winning the million
dollars would be great, but
there's nothing that could put
a price tag on this experience.
And I hope
that we showed a lot of people
how close brothers should be and
how close you can be with
your family and how important
that really is.
So go get 'em, Jag and Jas.
[laughs]
and TOYOTA.

KEOGHAN: Next time
onThe Amazing Race
Kyland and Taylor
hit turbulence.
KYLAND:
It's hard not to feel hopeless
when you know that you are
on a flight by yourself.
KEOGHAN: And heat
exhaustion overtakes Adam.
I feel like passing out.
- [groans] - JOSEPH: Adam.
- CHELSIE: Is he okay?
