Previously on the amazing race

12 teams raced to Osaka, Japan.

My god.

At the airport, pops and Jeff

and Melinda and Erika join forces.

We'll be able to get on it?

Jeff and I worked some magic.

In Osaka, the return

of the intersection forced teams to pair up at the roadblock.

- They've already paired up? - I think so.

Jonathan and Jack were in perfect sync.

Yay!

Last place Scott and Bernie staged

a spectacular comeback.

- Yeah! - Yeah!

Thank you! Arigato. Arigato. Arigato.

Meanwhile, Ernest and Mark couldn't find their rhythm.

I'm just overwhelmed by this situation.

Married couple Jonathan and Ana won the leg.

You are team number one.

We had the most amazing day today.

Siblings han and Holden

got tangled up at the detour.

- Go back. - I'm so sorry, Holden.

I'm so sorry.

But in the end,

father and daughter Ernest and Bridget

came up short.

You are the last team to arrive,

and you have been eliminated.

We had an amazing time.

Coming up tonight, the express pass returns

I want this express pass so bad.

A new surprise is revealed...

It's called the driver's seat.

And emotions run high at the detour.

Look, you're not even doing it anymore.

- No, no, no! - Okay, go.

All right.

Leg three.

Route info.

"Travel by bullet train

- "to the city of Kyoto." - My gosh.

"Once there, take a taxi to shimogamo jinja shrine

to find your next clue."

All teams will now ride the bullet train

from Japan's third largest city, Osaka, to Kyoto,

the former capital of Japan for more than 1,000 years.

After racing at speeds up to 200

miles an hour on the bullet,

teams have a chance to continue speeding

through this leg of the race

when they encounter an express pass.

Ooh! Express pass coming.

- Let's go. - Let's go.

I definitely feel like we're one of the stronger teams here.

And now that we bagged a first-place win,

I feel like we're kind of more relaxed now.

We need a cab. Need a cab.

We're just gonna try to stay on our toes

and be agile and be ready for anything.

Yeah. And bounce back on. Yes.

We need to go to shin-Osaka station.

- Shin-Osaka station? - Yes. Yes.

- Thank you. - He knows. He knows.

Because I am very sensitive to the heat

and we know a hot country

is gonna be coming up at some point...

Yeah.

We want to have that express pass in our pockets.

"Heads up. The express pass will be

up for grabs somewhere along this leg."

- My gosh. Let's go. - Let's go.

So we're leaving in second place today.

We're super excited about that.

Two out of 11 is a much better position than we were in

during the last leg.

Ooh, my calf already hurts, honey.

I'm definitely not a runner,

so I made up this word "slogging."

It's slow jogging.

- I'm just gonna be slower. My calf. - Yeah.

I'm 47. She's 48, you know.

- And... 49. My gosh. - I'm 49.

- Come on, honey. We got to go. - Yup.

We're slower,

so every little minute counts for us.

- Konnichiwa. - Shin-Osaka station.

My brother loved Kyoto.

I'm just so excited to go there

and be able to tell my brother,

"hey, I went there, too, and had ten sake, also."

No, I'm just kidding. We can't have sake, but I wish. I wish.

I can't believe we're taking this shinkansen.

- Yes. I'm so excited. - I'm going to Kyoto.

That was one of my bucket list things.

Let's go. So, if we could get an express pass,

like, that would change everything.

Because with a target on our back, we can...

Play it on a detour if we need to.

- All right, let's go. - Let's go.

Okay. You good? You don't have to run yet.

Okay, don't run yet, then.

Shin-Osaka station.

As nurses, I think

our ability to be adaptable will carry over in this race.

We're not the fastest team here, but

we're not allowing that to intimidate us.

Courtney was in the intensive care unit.

I was in the emergency department.

We learned how to stay calm under pressure.

The express pass is out there. That's like a golden...

That's like getting the golden ticket on Willy wonka.

Yeah.

I've been on a bullet train a long time ago.

I just remember that it's one of the fastest forms

of ground transportation in the world.

I'm looking forward to riding on that train.

Yeah.

Bullet train.

It's kind of like a train.

- It is a train. - It's a train.

It literally says, "bullet train."

True.

This is it. Shin-Osaka.

- Okay. - Goodbye to Osaka.

- Kyoto, here we come. - Here are ticket lines.

- Your ticket. - Beautiful.

- Yeah, let's go, let's go. - Let's go. Okay, come on.

Thank you. Thank you. Arigato.

Thank you. Arigato.

Bullet train to Kyoto.

- Over here, over here. - Come on, get on.

Hopefully, we have a good lead.

Get on, get on, get on!

We literally had one minute

- to catch that bullet. - We ran up the stairs

with one minute to catch this train, and here we are.

This thing is just absolutely flying.

- I mean, this is crazy. - How fast do you think?

I have never gone on a train this fast, ever.

- This is so smooth. - This is awesome. It is so smooth.

I love this. I've never been on a bullet train before.

It's chaotic, crazy. That's what we're used to.

That's what we do.

- Track 25 right here. - Yay!

Seems like maybe we're here alone, so that's good.

Yeah.

- Yeah. - Hey, good job, guys.

- This train is flying. - Fast.

We're so excited.

My god.

What if it's the express pass?

Going for it.

- All right, here we go. - All right, look for the taxi.

Down, down, down, down, down.

Let's go fast. Let's go fast.

Come on, babe. Taxi. Taxi. Taxi.

Babe, this way, babe. This way.

Here. This guy, he's dropping off.

Get him, get him. Get him right now. Excuse me.

- Taxi! - Yes. Please. Thank you.

Look. They're right there in front of us.

- Yeah. Interesting. - I don't know what that means.

My gosh.

Look at these buildings to the left.

How beautiful.

- So cool. - Yeah, this is the old world.

I mean, there's nothing that compares to this in america.

And they're untouched.

We're a baby country compared to this.

Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

- Okay, we got everything, car? - Here we go. Yeah.

- All right, let's go. - Let's do it.

See you guys there.

All right.

- Okay. - Let's go.

- Okay. - You want to go in right here?

Yeah.

Where do we buy tickets?

- There it is. Ticket counter right here. - All right.

I'm just trying to see what these signs say.

Okay.

Let's get in and just find out, Jeff.

I tell you what.

You guys in a hurry? You in a rush?

We got a million dollars on the line, man.

No, no, no. I'm talking, you here, us there.

That was a good idea.

All right, come on. Let's go.

- Thank you, sir. - All right. All right.

- Thank you, sir. - Pops, you are the man for that.

You, too, ma'am. I appreciate it. Thank you so much.

- Kyoto? - So we got a little advantage

by them allowing us to come up front.

Yup. Man, that was a player move right there, pops.

Thank you.

- We leave in six minutes. Come on. - Six minutes.

- I think the train is coming now. - Yeah.

- Beautiful race morning. - And here's the train right here.

- Ma'am, so go to the ticket center. Okay. - Okay.

- So we were in the right line. Ooh, man. - Okay.

All right. Let's go, mom.

So these are the tickets we want.

There's yellow, so we're right there.

That's where we have to go.

Yup. That's okay... mom.

Time to get on the bullet train.

Nice job, mom. Nice job.

Here we go. See you in Kyoto.

We're taking a bullet train to Kyoto!

Yeah. Let's get this bullet train.

It's in two minutes.

- Two minutes. - Let's do it. Let's do it.

How cool is this?

- Right? - First bullet train.

We just made it, boy. We just made it.

Let's go.

Wow. Okay. We're here.

Scott, I think we go this way,

- where all the people are going. - All right.

- No clue box here? - You see it? You see it?

- Clue, clue, clue box, clue box. - I see it. I see it.

- There's another team. - They beat us.

- Shut up. - It's all good. They beat us.

Route info. "Buy a sheet of magic fortune paper."

For a glimpse of their future luck,

visitors to this sixth century shrine

use pieces of fortune-telling paper,

known as omikuji.

Teams have to purchase a piece of this paper

from a marked vendor and dip it into the water

to reveal the location of their next clue.

Magic paper vendor?

Scott, come on, please. Come on.

This way, this way, this way.

Scott, come on.

- That's him. That's him. - Go, go, go. 500?

- Magic paper, please. - Okay.

500.

The paper was this small little paper

with beautiful writing, but you couldn't

see the main message until you put it in the water.

You just take it, and the...

And then watch the message appear.

- That was magical. - Magical.

"Shiramine jingu shrine."

- "Shiramine jingu shrine." - Shiramine.

Should we ask somebody?

Faster. Run. We're in a race.

Taxi!

There's one across the street.

- My god. Hey. - My god!

- What's up, you guys? - Let's cross.

- Are you leaving? - So glad to see you guys.

Wait. Wait. No. You can't cross. Okay.

Yeah.

- Thank you, kan, see you in a minute. - Arigato gozaimasu.

We'll see you very soon.

- Shiramine jingu shrine? - Thank you.

Either side, honey. Either side.

- I'm looking. - Dang it.

- My god. - Okay. Where would that be?

The marked vendor.

Thank you. Arigato. Okay, we can't run.

- A person with magic paper, yes. - Carson, yes.

Red and yellow flowers. Yeah.

- Okay. Thank you. - Arigato gozaimasu.

"Shiramine jingu shrine."

All right, ready?

We're really not far behind them at all.

"Shiramine jingu shrine"?

- Yeah. - Ten minutes. Perfect. - Perfect.

We need to go to shiramine jingu shrine.

- Do you know where it is? - Yes.

Yes? Okay.

It says "shiramine..."

"Shiramine jingu shrine."

We want to get out of here before we see anyone else.

All right, let's go that way to get a taxi

to get to the bullet train station.

We are leaving in last place today.

I think what's exciting is, this is the season of surprises.

There's going to be an opportunity to catch up

on every single leg.

There's a taxi stand in the hotel.

Go to the hotel. Go to the hotel. Smart.

We can't expect things to go well for us.

We have to force them to go well for us.

Good job, Holden.

Exit right there. Yeah? Thanks.

There we go, taxi right here, Jeff, come on.

- Right here. Right here. - Taxi. Taxi.

Let's go. Let's go.

You're killing it today, pops.

Jingu shrine?

This is it?

Go, go, go.

- Come on. - Get ready, babe.

We're gonna have to blast through.

- Roadblock. - Okay.

- Okay. - Express pass.

The Japanese go to great lengths

to keep their treasured culture alive,

keeping sports like kemari,

an ancient form of samurai soccer, in the spotlight.

Popular with royalty and nobility,

it was first played nearly 1,400 years ago.

The goal is simple.

Keep the ball in the air,

just like soccer, without using hands.

This roadblock requires teams

to complete five passes to get their next clue.

The express pass is up for grabs.

The team that wins it can hand it over

and skip any task that they don't want to complete.

To win this one, both team members need

to complete the roadblock.

Can they win this game-changing advantage

from the kemari master?

We're both doing it. It's for the express pass.

- My god. - It's another team. - Come on, babe.

Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go.

Who's here?

- Is it d&d? - Come on.

Holy moly.

I am not good at sports.

"Play the ancient game"

"of kemari."

"Five successful passes."

- Okay, ready? - Yeah. Go, go, go.

- I'm gonna go first. - Hey, you guys.

Hi, guys. Can I play?

"Only one express pass is available to win."

Okay.

- What do you think? - Well, let's just do one, yeah.

Well, let's just do it. Yeah?

I definitely thought that Jonathan and Ana would be

in and out with the express pass before we even got there.

Shoot. Okay.

I'm ready to play.

So we are in this.

We have a fighting chance to win this express pass.

- Ooh. - You got it, car!

One.

- Two. - Sorry.

It's okay. It's okay.

Ooh. Sorry.

- Too hard, too hard. - Babe, get ready.

Whoo!

Whoa!

Good? Good?

- Yeah, that was five passes. - Whoa. Okay.

- My gosh. It's my turn. - Go. Fast, babe, fast.

Yeah, car!

Let's go!

The ball has a mind of its own.

You got it. You got it.

Shoot.

I had gotten done with the roadblock

so quickly that it seemed like a no-brainer

for her to go ahead and step in and try it herself.

It's okay, babe. It's okay.

Just to see if we can get the express pass.

I was not optimistic.

My gosh... I played soccer when I was younger,

and my mom used to tell an iconic story about

how I liked to pick the flowers instead of actually playing.

You got it, car.

Ooh.

Almost.

I think it's this way, mom.

Excuse me. We got to go this way.

- Slow and steady, mom. - You're fine.

All right. Taxi.

We're in a race. We need to get to the temple fast.

Let's go.

You got it, car.

I have to make five successful passes.

I had no technique.

Oof.

I had no idea what I was doing.

You got to chill.

I was kicking the ball too hard.

Yes, Carson.

Jonathan is so competitive, and if I'm not good

at something, he'll just shut down.

I'm not going to be smiling, you know,

when you're having a hard time with something

that I find so simple.

I just ignored

whatever energy he was putting out,

and I just focused on what I needed to get done.

That is a perfect example

of just our relationship in general.

We know by now the way we react to each other.

So whether we engage or not could lead to either

a disaster or a positive experience.

It...

Right here. There's the exit. Exit.

Follow them.

Let's do it. Let's get it! Exit.

See you guys there.

I think right now we all just want to survive.

Thisamazing race is

- everything for us. - I'm just really proud

to represent my community,

and for everyone who looks like me, who feels like me.

As a mixed kid growing up, I never fit one category.

Like, I'm not African American enough,

I'm not his panic enough, and I feel like

that puts you like, "I don't belong anywhere."

No matter how you identify, no matter where you're from,

no matter who you are, you can achieve any of your dreams.

You can do whatever you want.

Are we gonna be okay?

- The stream. Come on. - The stream. Yup.

"Dip it in the stream to reveal your next clue."

"Shiramine jingu shrine."

Okay, got to go

- back out to the entrance. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- To get in the cab. - Yeah.

- Okay. - Yup.

Roadblock. Express pass.

"Five successful passes

before the ball hits the ground to receive your next clue."

Okay.

Okay. "Only one express pass available to win."

- Okay, I'll do the roadblock. - Go, go, go, go, go.

Good job, car!

- Three. - Almost there.

Nice.

- And four. Come on. - Yes!

- Yes! Yes! - Express pass.

My gosh. We've got other teams here, Scott.

Go, go, go, go, go.

- You got this, you got this. - Shoot. No, too far.

Okay, you've got two more minutes, and then we got to go.

- Okay. - Hi.

Okay. Five times? Okay.

- Okay. - Come on, Jack.

You got this. Yo!

I want this express pass so bad.

- You've already completed it? - Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- You've already completed it? - Yeah.

Sorry.

You got this, honey!

You got this, babe!

You got this, you got this.

Sorry. Sorry.

- Whoo! - Five!

- Yay! - That was five.

Yeah, baby!

Hey, do you want to try?

- No. - No? We're good.

Both of those teams

were trying to get the express pass,

and, I mean, I probably could have

eventually gotten it, but I just didn't want

to waste that time.

And I also feel like if we are

the first to leave, it puts a little bit

of a psychological pressure on the other teams.

Route info.

Teams must now make their way by taxi

to yasaka koshin-do temple,

where they'll find their next clue.

- Okay. - Yeah.

Okay. Let's get a taxi.

Jack, what are you feeling? Should we cut it?

No.

- Until they leave, we should not leave. - Okay.

My god. I don't know if I can do this. Geez.

Should we just go?

Do you want to leave, babe?

Give me a couple more tries.

Whoa.

Want to keep trying? Babe?

That's two.

Three.

Come on, babe. Four.

One more. Just relax, babe. My god. You did it, babe.

- Did we do it? My... - You did it!

- Okay. Sorry. We're done. - Yeah!

- You did it, girl! - Yeah, I did it.

My god. Okay, they got it. They got it.

- Let's go. - My... -Okay. -Taxi. Taxi.

We may be able to catch those other teams,

- so come on. - Here's the express pass.

My baby did it. She did it.

Let's go, babe.

It's right there. I see it.

- All right. All right. - Run up the escalator.

Go. Track 23. Track 23 right here. Right here.

To Kyoto? Yeah.

- I think we're working smart so far. - Yeah.

- Josiah's gonna do the roadblock. - I'm up for some kicks.

And I'm hoping it's martial arts instead of soccer.

- So, the express pass is taken. - Express pass is taken.

- He's got this. - This is my sport, but.

I played division 1 soccer at temple university.

Soccer's just a part of who I am.

Competition's a part of who I am because of soccer.

He's totally got it.

- Five? - Five?

- That's five. - You did it!

Arigato. Arigato. Arigato.

Thank you all so much.

Arigato.sorry.

Scott, watch where you're walking, please.

Sorry.

- All right. - All right.

All right. Detour.

Detour. "Fold it or fling it?"

Origami embodies the principles of Patience,

precision and mindfulness.

This captivating art form,

revered for its simplicity and elegance,

is taught here at an early age.

This detour requires teams to build a giant-sized crane,

perhaps origami's most famous design.

Figuring out the precise pattern of folds

could have some teams completely unraveled.

But if teams can bring their bird home to roost,

they'll get a clue and can keep on racing.

This detour requires teams to use spikes,

throwing stars and a blowgun.

Using them is simple,

but being dead-on accurate won't be easy.

- I say fling it. Ninja. - Yup, I say fling it.

- Yup, we're gonna fling it. - Fling it.

So we think we're in first place.

We're hopeful that we just keep etching away

- and just keep moving forward... - Yeah.

- Budo center? It's... - Yeah? Okay? - Yes. Okay.

Yes. He knows.

Okay. We'll leave our backpacks. We'll be right back.

Come on, mom. Don't run. If your leg hurts too much,

we can't run on the grounds anyways, right?

Okay, it's saying something. I see it.

"Jingu shrine."

This is our next place, mom. So now we go back.

- Ooh! Be careful. - All right. Be careful.

"Buy a sheet of magic fortune paper."

That means we have to search.

We do.

"Who's up for some kicks?"

Let's go, pops.

You-you got it. Concentrate. Concentrate.

There you go.

You had some power behind that kick.

Detour.

"Fold it or fling it?"

I think, hit the targets, right? Yeah.

Fling. Yeah, fling for sure. That sounds so much fun.

- Let's go. - Okay. You got the clue?

It's right here, babe. Right here. Right here.

My gosh.

- We're gonna do fling it. - Okay, let's go.

You're good at throwing things, babe.

- I've seen you. - Okay, let's go.

Let's go, pops.

You got it now.

Good job, pops.

Keep going all in like that,

but don't-don't get frustrated, pops.

Come on.

Yeah.

Getting closer and closer, pops.

There he is. Come on.

- Five. That did it. Come on. - All right.

Where we at? Where the clue at? Where-where to next?

All right, all right.

- Is this the box? - Yes.

"A marked vendor."

- Thank you. Thank you. - We'll be right back.

Remember the exact path. We need to get in that taxi.

Power walk. Power walk.

- Okini, okini. - Have a nice day.

All right. And then we dip it in the water.

- Have a nice day. - Thank you.

"Buy a sheet of magic fortune paper from the marked vendor..."

"And dip it in the stream to reveal your next clue."

- It says the shrine name. - But is that our clue?

Yellow.

Here it is. Write this down.

"Shiramine jingu shrine."

Shiramine j-i-n-g-u shrine.

All right, let's go back where we came from.

Let's go.

- See, good thing we held our taxi. - That was cool.

We are trying to find... my god, it's drying

the shiramine jingu shrine?

Shiramine?

- No. -It's not here. - It's... okay.

- All right, so... - Okay, so we do need a taxi. Thank you.

Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.

Go, go. Exit, exit, exit, exit.

- Shimogamo? - Fast, fast. We're in a race.

We're gonna move with urgency and purpose

until our dying breath.

There he is.

- Got it? - Let's go.

- Is that a...? - That's a taxi. Taxi!

- He got somebody in there. - He has someone in there.

Perfect.

Shiramine jingu shrine?

- Shiramine. -Yes. - Yeah.

- Taxi! - Right here.

Yeah.

I mean, how sure are we that it's in another location?

- Why don't we ask the bus driver? - Yeah.

I have a question.

My god. Did it dry? It did.

Okay, we got to write it down 'cause it dried.

- Okay. - We got to wet it again.

Okay, here. We have water.

- Yeah, let's write it down. - Okay.

- I couldn't even ask him. - Man.

I know Patience is the name of the game.

Like you said, we don't want to be walking too far.

- Taxi! - She got people in there.

- So she wouldn't have been able to stop. - Okay.

Thank you.

Let's go.

Fold it, fling it.

- Let's fling it as ninjas. - Okay.

- Hello. - Konnichiwa.

We chose the ninja challenge because

we knew if our boys could choose it,

- it would definitely be ninja stuff. - Yes.

And we were gonna get to dress up in a ninja costume.

So, even though it might take extra minutes

to get the costume on, it still was like,

"let's do this for our boys."

Let's see how practice goes.

Each of us must hit the designated targets

with three spikes, three stars, three blow darts.

Just go right here.

Karate chop, release the thumb,

but keep the fingers up.

Just release the thumb like that. Okay.

So the first one was like this small little pipe thing.

Then the star and then the blow dart.

So we only need three total between both of us?

No, three each.

Okay.

Yup.

"Who's up for some kicks?"

Friggin' excited it's a sport one.

One.

I played lots of sports in high school.

Four different sports in high school.

And then played volleyball through college.

Three.

Four.

Five. Yes?

All right, let's go, mom.

Wait. I knew you would kill it. I knew you would kill it.

You could have done that.

Let's see. Is somebody in these?

Taxi! There's nobody in that first one.

- Court, see if you can get him. - Thank you.

Konnichiwa. We need to go here.

- Sure. Okay. - Thank you. -Thank you.

Detour.

- "Fold it or fling it?" Fling it? - Me too.

Fling it. We're gonna do fling it.

We're gonna do fling it.

Hey, if you can't get this this next time, let's switch to fold.

Fling it. Fling it or fold it.

- Fling or fold it. Fling it. - Okay, let's

Scott and Lori. Goodness gracious.

This is so us.

We are nerds. We watch anime.

We were feeling the fantasy.

- To fight. Yeah. - This is the coolest thing ever.

Be accurate like the ranger. Okay.

- Hi. - Hi.

- This is practice. - It's practice?

- This is practice, right? - I got it.

Ooh.

Ooh!

I started with the spikes, and I threw eight of them

in a row, and not one of 'em stuck.

Scott and Lori. They're just here.

- We could beat 'em. - Okay.

They're both here.

- We can beat 'em. - We can beat 'em. -Okay.

When I read the clue and it said,

"be a ninja," I mean, I just... I just...

My logical brain just shut down at that point,

and I became a child again.

It's all in the wrist. All in the wrist.

Gosh.

- Okay. - I'm sorry. I can't get this, honey.

- Okay. - Okay, we're switching.

If it was just the stars and just the blow darts,

we would have gotten that.

We would have left, like, really fast.

But it was just that first thing

that I'm, like, I just couldn't get it.

Okay.

Wow.

The blow gun seems pretty easy.

Got it.

Got three in a row, so let's just work on these.

- Okay. The spikes? - Yup.

Where's Scott and Lori?

- Right here. - There they are.

I feel pretty badass, I got to say.

Grab your stuff. Let's go.

Good luck, you guys.

Okay. Ready, babe?

Look at this.

Okay. Watch how they're doing it, honey.

- Take it, fold it in half. - Half, half, quarter. Yes.

Half, half. And then flatten it out.

- Open it and then... - Yup, flatten out. Yup.

Okay. Same thing on the other side.

- Open... - Yup, flatten out.

- Wow. - Goodness. We could start it

and come back and look.

- Are we folding on this? - My gosh!

- That's awesome. - We're folding this.

- Okay. Okay. - Okay. We got to work together.

- Put your paper down. - Yeah.

I get this corner. You get this corner.

- And then... okay. - And we go this way.

- Yup. - Make sure it's lined up.

My gosh. This is rad!

I love folding paper airplanes for my boys.

We're doing that, like, usually in church,

every Sunday or whatever.

- Something to pass the time. - Every Sunday.

Okay, stay there. You go that corner, I'll go this corner?

- Okay. - We're bending.

So it was exciting to do a paper folding kind of thing,

but I realized this was not something I could do on my own.

- Nice, nice, nice. - Match those corners.

We got to even this air out.

I knew I had to communicate effectively with her

to help her help me fold the paper

properly the way we needed to do it.

- Okay. I got it from here. Okay. - Okay.

- Diagonal. - Diagonal.

We're gonna do the best we can, okay, babe?

Absolutely.

You got this, bro. Nice and easy.

You got it.

- Wow. -Nice! - Five. Let's go!

- Good job, boys. Thank you. - My god.

Perfect roadblock.

Let's start a soccer team when I come back.

- That was a quick one. - Thank you.

Arigato, a rig a to. Let's go, baby! Let's move!

Detour. You want to do the fold it?

- I think so. - I think so, too.

Think we're going up here.

- I think we need to... - I think it's up here.

- Stop and get directions. - Okay.

Hey, which one'd you guys do? Jeff, pops.

- What'd you do? - What'd you do?

We did the roadblock so far, and now we just...

You need the detour still?

- Yeah. Yeah. - Hey, detour's up this way.

- Come on. - Thank you.

- And then we can do it together. - Thank you.

We ran into pops and Jeff,

which we have been working really closely with.

- We were gonna fold it. - Yeah. Yeah. - Okay.

We have an alliance with Melinda and Erika.

It's a parent-and-child thing.

We both realized how much alike Erika and I are

and how much alike my pops and Melinda is.

It's right here on your left. Go get the detour done first.

You sure it's right here on the left?

- To your left, yeah. - Okay. All right, thank you.

That's why you team up with people.

- The only two old teams left... - Yeah.

Is a father-son and a mother-daughter.

So we're like, "okay, we're gonna work"

"to get both of us to the end

since everybody else is young."

Detour. "Fold it or fling it?"

- We're gonna fold it. Okay. - You can fold it.

- I'm so glad we saw you guys. - Yeah. Me too, man.

Yeah, we walked right past the clue box.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, we're good.

There was still five clues in there, so we're good.

- That's it, baby, you got it, you got it. - That's it?

- You got, like, seven. - Five. Okay. Yes, yes, yes, yes.

"Who's up for some kicks?" I am.

- She is. - Let's do it.

"Find your next clue."

- Got it. Go, go, go. - Okay. Let's go.

Carrigain.

Taxi, taxi, taxi.

Hi!

We had decided that the next roadblock

probably should be something that I should do

because Bernie did the first two.

Unfortunately, like, I am not someone who plays sports

that involve balls because I'm very clumsy.

Ooh.

I didn't do it right.

Ooh. How did you do that?

- I don't know. - Down.

- Yup. - Okay.

All right, you've got it.

- Yeah. - I need to get it now.

Okay. Yeah, I think we can do this.

- Ooh, this is hard. - Should we just try it?

- I think maybe we should, yeah. - All right, let's just try to...

- We're gonna try it. - I haven't gotten it at all, but..

We have to be perfect.

As long as we can get those spikes,

we'll be good to go.

I'm so excited right now. This is an authentic dojo.

Give it a chance.

I don't know what I'm doing.

Okay, let's go.

We're going to fold. This is just too tricky for us.

- I'm gonna start with this. - Okay.

At the performance range,

there was not an unlimited supply

of these spikes to throw.

You had to land

every single spike, every single star

and every single dart, both of us,

perfectly, in each run.

Okay.

- Ooh. I've already messed up. - I think we got to switch.

- All right, we're switching. - Okay.

We're gonna switch. We're gonna switch.

It was almost comical

how quickly I threw these darts,

- and then we said... - "We're switching."

"Okay, we're switching."

- Way to go, guys. - We're switching.

- We're switching. Yeah. - You're switching.

- We love to play darts. - I'm the first person

at a party to be like, "who's my cornhole partner?"

And it's always him.

It's not about force.

Hold that.

- Holding all three? - Yep.

Do you know how to fold a paper crane?

- I have done it before, yeah. - Me too, but not really.

Okay.

A memory came rushing back to me

of a little boy with a bowl cut haircut

in the library reading from an origami book,

doing a bunch of paper cranes

instead of hanging out with the jocks.

- Hey, guys. - Hey.

- So good to see you. - Hey!

That ninja was a little harder than I thought.

- Yeah. - It was so hard, but it was fun.

All right, baby.

Then our big square, unfold.

Fold the other way.

No, wait, it tucks

after... Wait, hang on, hang on,

- hang on. - Let's go watch her.

Don't break it. Don't break it, okay?

Well, open that one level.

- Flip the whole thing. - Fold it...

- To the other side. - Open it. Open all the way up.

- Okay. - Fold it in on itself.

Okay, let's go. Okay, let's walk

I think it's this way. I think it's this way.

Here, you dip it.

That's really cool.

Okay, write that down. Write that down. Here.

"Shiramine... jingu... shrine."

- Let's move. - So we're going...

- Just show him. - Here.

"Who's up for some kicks?"

- I'll do it. - I am. Go ahead.

You got it, girl. You got it.

Go, go, go.

- Yellow just got here. - Okay. Okay. Okay.

Can we play?

I'm totally not a soccer player.

I don't believe Courtney has, like,

a lot of experience with sports.

I played basketball in school.

Courtney did band.

Man. This might be harder than I thought. Okay.

"Fold it or fling it?"

We're flinging it. We're flinging it.

This is where we calm down.

Calm down. Yeah, we're flinging it, though.

Wait, wait, wait, wait. This is all wonky-doodle.

I'm scared about it not lining up perfectly.

My oldest daughter actually loves origami.

It's totally different making it on little tiny pieces of paper

than that giant one, so hopefully,

I can do well at this. She'll be proud.

- Hold on. Kick it... - From the center?

Yup. You need help?

Hold on, babe. You pulled too hard. You...

- Just give me a sec. - This isn't perfect, though.

Okay, stop talking and just make it perfect.

Okay, we got to look at what we're looking for.

Yeah, we got to do... Fold it is this way, it says.

- It does? - Nice, nice.

- Where'd you see that? - Yeah, they all took off their shoes.

- There's a lot of people in there. - How many are there?

Yep. There's a lot of people in there.

We did it backwards.

- Okay. - How did that happen?

The kids are doing it right there.

Just have to watch the demonstration.

Look at this.

So I missed one step, and I got to wait for them

to get the whole thing over again.

Detour.

"Fold it or fling it?"

- Just pick one. - Fold. Fold it.

Thank you.

Arigato.

Ninja.

We see Josiah and Alyssa right there.

Looks like they're struggling a little bit.

We were excited to see them there

because they were way ahead of us.

It's so tough because we know this is hard

and this is gonna be time-consuming,

and we have no idea how hard or time-consuming the origami is.

We're gonna give it a shot.

- Let's give it a shot. - Let's go to the training.

You're doing great, Courtney!

- Okay. - Stay calm.

Lord.

- Sorry. Sorry. - You got it,

- car rig a in. - All right. I'm just

getting the hang of it.

That was a knee.

Close.

As long as I don't see han and Holden,

I'm feeling good.

Go, but, han... Just go, go, go, go, go, go, go.

Roadblock.

"Who's up for some kicks?"

- Kicks. Soccer. - I am.

I played soccer in high school.

You know, I don't want to pat myself on the back,

but looking at first team,

all-league my sophomore year, so...

- But what-what division were you? - Don't talk about that.

I believe in you!

- It's han and Holden. - You got it, Holden!

I've done this a million times before.

This is how I'd warm up for soccer games

and soccer practice, juggling with my teammates.

Now I'm just doing it with Japanese men

that I've never met in my life.

Whoa!

- Yeah! - We're good?

Let's go! Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. Let's go!

Arigato.

Still got it.

Just go. Go, go, go, go, go, go.

- My gosh. - I know.

- That was what we needed. - My god.

We've been waiting for a break to show that, like,

"hey, we can move, we can get to the front."

We're still in the bottom third of teams.

We want to get to the front third as fast as possible,

and the only way to do that is

to just keep the faith and keep pushing.

There you go, girl.

Is that five? Let's go!

- That was five! - That was five.

Hey!

Man, you're gonna give me a heart attack.

You got this, Courtney.

Don't you give up.

I'm trying, jazzy.

I really am.

- Keep believing. - I'm trying.

Stay focused, court.

We are the only team left here, but

we still know that anything is possible.

Positivity.

Stay in it, court.

And then... yes.

That's... this is it. Then this.

Nice. That's a good one.

- That's a good one. - Good enough. Flip it.

Express pass?

Having that in our hands means everything.

But of course, we're not gonna use it today.

So, we still want to do well and nail this challenge.

We didn't leave it...

Did we leave it punctured the other way?

That would be wrong that way, right?

- Flip it. - Okay, but you got to be careful.

- Sorry. Hey. - There we go.

- Jeff, let me help you. - All right.

Let me help you. Let me help you.

Okay, let me, here.

- So go like this. - Yeah. Okay.

And now flatten it...

- This way. Okay. - This way. Yup.

Hey, let me know if you need help on the next one.

Thanks again.

- Hold it. - Holding. - Perfect.

This is what we want. Yeah. Okay.

- Diamond. Finally, diamond. - Yeah, yeah.

The wings get folded down.

- Dad, see what I'm saying? - There you go. Yup.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Yeah. We got it.

Don't touch it. Don't touch it. Don't touch it.

Okay.

- Arigato. - Arigato.

- You guys got it? Awesome. - It's amazing.

Okay.

Yes.

Yes, please. Yes?

- Good job. -Thank you. - Yes!

Arigato. Arigato.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Don't worry about anyone else's race but ours.

Arigato.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.

Thank you, thank you.

Nice job, you guys.

- Okay, baby, we got this. - Route info.

- "Race to the pit stop." - My gosh.

Buddhism is among the world's most popular religions,

practiced by tens of millions here in Japan

at the more than 70,000 temples, just like this one

konkai komyo-ji.

Teams will find me here in these tranquil gardens.

The last team to check in here will be eliminated.

Nothing's up there.

- Shuttles. - We need a taxi.

We believe this is it. Budo center.

Yes. This is it. Babe, look.

- It's a giant crane. - My god. The teams are all here.

- Make sure everything's crisp. - Yes.

- Yup. Perfect. - Okay.

- Four, and then a diagonal. - Do you want to do this first?

- Let's just do that. - The first steps, yeah.

Can we get a check?

Domo a rig a to gozaimasu.

- I'll hold it now. - Yeah.

- Good job. - Yes!

- Domo a rig a to gozaimasu. - Thank you. Thank you.

Arigato gozaimasu. Thank you so much.

We definitely should have went with fold. You were right.

From now on, you're picking the detours.

Do you think we're gonna get second?

- I don't know. Maybe. - Okay. Taxi.

We're going to komyo-ji temple? Yes?

- Yeah. Yeah. Okay. - Okay. Trunk?

Konnichiwa.

I think we're team number one.

I can't even believe I'm saying that.

- I don't know. - I think we're team number one.

Got it.

- Do you want to try it? - Yeah.

Let's try it. We're going to try it.

There's no line, so we might as well.

Okay. So we only have

three of each here. We don't get an extra one.

We have to be perfect over here.

It was extremely hard

to be able to complete it perfectly,

three for three, three for three, three for three.

We're not good at this at all.

I'm an athlete at heart.

That has just created a really competitive soul in me.

Alyssa sets a high bar for everyone, including herself.

She can't half-ass anything.

We just didn't want to give up.

We'll try again.

Wouldn't it be the amazing race if it was easy.

- Fold one leg... - No, no, no. These are the legs.

So you pulled them up?

I don't remember already.

Hey, we got the hard flip part.

- Maybe we flip it... this way. - Not maybe.

- Do you know for sure? - Flip it.

Just try it with me. Try it with me.

- We're done. - Can we get a check?

- Is that it? - That's it.

Go halfway and flip it.

- No, we open one side up. - Open one side up.

Good job.

Let's just calmly do it one step at a time.

"The last team to check in will be eliminated."

Hey, nice job. Great job, you guys.

- Great job. - Get it.

Jack and Carson

were right on our tail. It's anyone's game.

We think we're in second place,

- which is great. - Amazing.

Okay, trunk, trunk.

Hurry, please.

Is it right here?

I think we made the right decision by switching in...

This is it? Wow.

Arigato gozaimasu.

- Come on, car. - Yeah.

You think he's in here?

He must be.

- Should we look down this way? - Let's go that way.

Great idea.

- Could that be? - Here. Yeah, here.

- Here? - I think so.

Okay, and we have another team coming.

Hey.

You got this.

Nicely done. Nicely done, Carson.

Welcome to Kyoto, Japan!

Arigato gozaimasu.

- Thank you. Thank you. - Arigato.

You know what we need to know right now?

- Yes. - We need to know who is team number one

- on this leg of the race. - My gosh.

It could be Scott and Lori. It could be.

It is.

And I do have some great news for you.

As the winners of this leg of the race, you have won $5,000.

$2,500 each.

You probably have the same bank account.

- $5,000 for her. - Well, it'll be $5,000 for me, Phil.

Let's be real here. It's $5,000 for me.

And let's be honest, this is super close,

all the way to the mat, you guys running all the way in.

The good news is you're here, and I do have some news for you.

We're letting all the teams know,

sometime during the next leg of the race,

you are going to encounter another amazing race first.

Another big surprise.

- Which is? - Okay.

It's called the driver's seat.

- Whoa. - Driver's seat? - Yes.

And if you get there first, you will have the power

to determine how much work all the other teams have to do

in order to get their next clue.

- My gosh. - So, you're gonna want to get there first

so that you have the power to then dictate

exactly how much everybody else has to do to get their clue.

- Okay. Okay. - Whoa! - Okay.

Detour. "Fold it or fling it?"

How's your hand-eye?

- It's not terrible. - Fold it. Fold it.

- All right, let's do it. - All right, let's go.

We should ask for help.

Okay.

Let's crush this detour. Let's crush this detour.

- Man. - Keep pushing, court.

All right. Just...

It was challenging, like I knew what I needed to do,

but all the elements, like the heat,

the exhaustion, the muscle soreness.

I was so frustrated, I just want this to be done.

I feel really bad. Should have done this one.

You okay?

Got three, baby. All right.

Damn.

Hey. No, no, no.

We can do this.

We're gonna get this, okay?

We're gonna get this, babe.

I'm a very optimistic, positive person.

I know Alyssa's gonna go to a ten,

she knows I'm gonna go to a one,

and we got to meet at a five so that we can move forward.

We're not going out.

Let's try again.

Yeah.

That's it.

Yeah. All right, that's it.

- This is good. I'm good with this. - Let me try.

Beautiful. All right, we're on to the next one.

- I messed up already. - It's all right.

Origami?

We're both stubborn and headstrong, and

it takes a lot for us to, like, quit something.

We don't want to go to origami

and start from square one again,

but we had to swallow that pride.

- We can do this origami, babe. - Yeah.

I-I... it doesn't seem like you're confident at this point.

- I don't want to guess. - Okay, then let's go back.

What...? I don't know what you're doing.

Sometimes I can figure it out by just trying it again.

I don't want... But I don't want to be confused.

You don't want to help me. That's okay.

No, I don't want to get confused, babe.

We'll watch, we'll wait and try again.

I don't want to guess.

I'm really worried about walking in there

and seeing everybody gone.

- Did you guys switch? - Yeah, we switched.

Nope, you're doing it wrong there.

This has to go like this, mom.

Is anyone not here yet?

Bernie and car rig a in are behind us,

and so are han and Holden.

Nah, we just undid what we just did.

- There's people behind us. - Hey. Yeah, I agree.

So as long as we're starting here, I feel way better now.

I'm still a ninja, just so everybody knows.

I'm so proud of you for not giving up.

- Kick. You made it. - Courtney, you did it.

Look what you just did.

Look what you just did!

Yes! Yes!

- Thank you. - You did it.

- My god. - You didn't give up. You didn't quit.

You did great. Let's go.

I know that I can do hard things,

but sometimes it gets so...

Challenging when you're so close.

Like, you're hoping for something,

and it's just, like, taking a while to come.

Just, like, the last four years of life

- have been such a fight, you know? - Yeah.

In 2020, I had to stop everything to,

like, rush home to Mississippi to take care of my mom,

who was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.

She went from healthy to sick.

I gave everything to try to see my mom live.

And so, sometimes when things get hard, I just...

You know, I'm afraid that things are just not gonna work out

sometimes, but I've learned how to just

keep moving forward.

I would love for my mom to be able to see me do this,

but I know that she's watching over me,

and that just gives me the fuel and the fire to keep going.

- That's right. - Down but not out.

Down but not out. That's right.

Look at 'em run.

- Yeah. Wow. - Whoo!

God.

I am pleased to tell you that you are the third team

to arrive. Pretty good.

- Got a little power in your pocket. - Yeah. Show him.

Nice. You pick up

the express pass and you arrive in the top three.

We feel great having the express pass.

All in all, I think it was a good day.

- All right, you have my bag? - Yeah.

Fold it. Fold it.

Dude, everyone's here, bro.

This challenge, compared to the other challenge,

seems more doable because we can keep coming back and trying it.

We don't have to be perfect.

- Had a journey today? - My god. Yeah.

- Fighting right now. - Heck yeah.

Dude, I freakin' wish I knew how to make one of these.

I feel like we did 'em as kids, man.

I know. And then it's, like, I've become an adult.

Become less cool.

- Maybe... - Nope. That is not right.

That's not right.

I feel good seeing how hard it is for everybody,

so I'm hoping that we can just stay focused,

do a little bit at a time, and get out here before all of them.

Detour.

"Fold it or fling it?"

I say fling it. What do you think?

- Fling it. - You can hit a target, yeah?

Yeah.

Taxi?

The hardest part is that there's only three...

You have to be perfect.

Son of a gun.

I did bad on that one, Mike.

Sit down for a second. Let's both sit down.

Let's both sit down.

Mike and I are avid meditators.

I know that sounds very ironic

as these two jocks from Brooklyn.

But back in 2015, I was assaulted,

and I had my jaw wired shut for three months.

I had to figure out a way to deal with all the thoughts

that were running through my mind.

Every morning, we start our day by checking in with each other

and a daily meditation together.

Yeah, 'cause this...

That's fine now, 'cause these match now, though.

- I think that's good now. - Yeah.

- To the point, right? - Yeah, to the point.

Okay. Right there.

- Over. - And then it becomes a sail again. Yeah.

Here, in. Perfect. There it is.

There it is, babe. Good job.

When in Kyoto, you make giant origami cranes.

Yeah. Make a good wing. We're good now.

Okay. Check?

Brought it down.

Stop. We know we got this step right.

- Good job. - Thank you.

Nice job.

- Good job. - Yes. My god. Yes. Yes.

Check?

- Good job. - Yes! Let's go, pops!

- We did that. Yes. - All right, my man, all right.

All right, one step at a time.

Literally, one step at a time.

This is so frustrating.

Do you want to see what's going on over there?

'Cause this is taking a lot of time.

You want to see?

It definitely is frustrating

to stay at something for that long

and not be able to get it,

but anything is possible in the amazing race.

We got to make the switch and make it happen quickly.

Feels a little good to see Nick and Mike come in

from the ninja challenge.

So now they're starting fresh here, just like we were.

Are there two teams behind us right now?

Yeah. We saw Bernie and car rig a in and...

Yeah, yeah.

Courtney and Jasmin at the roadblock.

That was the last time we saw them, though.

Okay.

So we're gonna go with our ninjas. Fling it.

Okay, I see it.

It's right here. There's the clue box.

Okay, so we're gonna do fold it.

We can do anything

we set our minds to, and as long as

we don't give up on ourselves,

the possibilities are endless.

One more time.

You good, girl.

You're good.

- You got it, mom? - Do you want me to take your bag?

You're good?

- Nope, I'm good. - Okay.

Welcome to Kyoto, Japan!

Whoo!

Melinda and Erika, I am pleased to tell you

that you are the fourth team to arrive

- and you are team number four. - We moved up.

- How did we do it? - I don't know.

- Let's go find this. - Where are we going?

Let's go up the stairs.

Look behind you right over here.

Hey!

Hi. Good job.. Group hug.

Well, Brett and Mark, I am pleased to tell you

that you are team number five.

- Yes! - Nice job, you guys.

All right, here we go.

Jeff and pops... welcome them in.

- Nice work, guys. - Good job.

- Arigato. Arigato. - Arigato.

And you're gonna be very pleased to hear

- that you are team number six. - All right, all right...

- Good job, guys. - Great job.

- Yeah. Good spot to be. - Yes.

I feel like we're feeling better right now, but we...

We got to do this right.

- I don't know what's going on. - Unfold this.

I don't know what's going on, bro.

Mike doesn't even fold his own clothes at home.

He, he drops his clothes off at the laundromat

and gets 'em all done for him.

- You're rushing. - Okay.

You want to talk smack,

but my mom still folds his laundry, so... No...

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Grab it.

Okay. Check?

Did you guys understand it yet?

- No. - All right.

No. We would have told you if we did.

- I promise we'll tell you. - Yeah.

- Arigato. - Arigato.

- Thank you all so much. - Thank you so much.

I'm gonna come back and train. One day I'll be a ninja, okay?

Today I'm origami.

Do you guys want to work together?

- Yeah, let's just work together. - Let's work together.

'Cause all we have to do is beat Bernie and car rig a in

- and the other team. - Yeah. Let's do it. Let's do it.

Don't flick it. You did this.

Let's race hard to the end, love,

- till we get to the pit stop. - Okay.

- Fold it is right here. - Okay.

We have to find an available workstation.

Mike, breathe. We got it.

Now she makes the square.

Do you have it? 'Cause I didn't get it.

No, because you turned around

- right when she was doing it, Mike. - All right.

There are three teams here with us.

Two of them are in this exact detour with us, folding it,

and I think there's one in the fling it.

So, we still got a chance, absolutely.

Okay. Holden, I really need you to help me picture this.

I'm trying my best. I'm also confused, though, han.

- You got to... - No, no, no, no, no.

I know you're helping me. I just...

- What are you doing?! - All right, go back. Let's go.

- This was here. - No, no, no, no!

Okay, go.

- Why, Nick? - Mike.

- Why? - Just go back to the way it was.

Well, if you feel like you've folded before,

- we might as well switch. - Like I said, it's up to you.

Okay, so let's switch, then.

Okay, let's switch.

We're switching.

Do we want to spend another hour trying to get

three of these to stick?

Yeah, girl. We ain't gonna get this. Let's go fold some paper.

So, Bernie and car rig a in just got here.

Now it's one, two...

There are four teams here, so we're still in it.

How far are you on this?

- Not too far. - Not very far.

- It's very difficult. - It's very difficult.

- Very, like... - Farther than us.

Can you please listen to me?

Look, you're not even doing it anymore.

Like, look from my angle. It doesn't look right.

Them yelling is messing with my brain.

Can you please stop for this long?

Can you please bring it?

Just tune 'em out, just tune 'em out.

I think it's gonna fight back, too, but this is biting, too.

Okay? This isn't just fighting back. It's biting us.

I had invested so much of, like, my emotion

just trying to catch up,

and, like, seeing that slip away

that, like, really tested my Patience.

We fought way too hard to go home today.

I'm, like, 90% sure this is right.

I'm 90% sure, too, but that's not 100.

- I'm so sorry, Holden. - What?

- I didn't know. - Don't apologize. Just move, okay?

Siblings, -focus. Focus, bro.

All right.

Do you...? It doesn't feel like you got it,

and it doesn't definitely... I know I don't have it.

If you think you have what it takes

to win the amazing race,

then go to CBS.Com/casting and apply now.

The world is waiting for you.

I did origami when I was a kid,

so I kind of... It's, like,

in the back of my brain I know how to do it.

Feeling just very frustrated, burnt out.

- Would you mind trying? - I did try, but...

- No, that's good. - I can't.

I don't know how to do it.

The fact that we're both nurses does help us stay, like, calm

and collected under pressure.

We know that freaking out doesn't help you think clearly.

Do we look like ninjas or origami makers, Phil?

Alyssa and Josiah, you're still in this race.

You're team number seven. Congratulations.

- We'll take it. - We'll take it.

I'm just happy to still be in it.

- You got the mid, and I got the top? - Okay.

Doesn't that look right?

Dude, look at the inside of that thing.

It is all crumpled up and looks like...

And then this came to this corner.

Yes.

Can we get a check?

What? Can you help me?

It was supposed to open up like a boat.

- It was supposed to? - Yeah.

- Looking good. We're looking good. - Beautiful.

- No good. - Okay.

I have no idea what's wrong.

Zero clue what the issue is.

How'd you guys do that step?

I think you might have folded it on the wrong side.

Yeah. You guys didn't do this first part right.

- Yeah. - Gotcha.

Nick and Mike found our mistake

that was causing us so much crinkleage in the paper.

This should not be folded here.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you to them.

- We cannot thank them enough. - Truly.

Be careful, be careful, be careful.

All right, we're making progress.

- This is it. - Can we get a check?

It's hard, but we're getting it.

And we're gonna fight till we can't anymore.

- Good job. - Yeah!

- Let's go! - Let's go!

Arigato. Arigato.

Hold on. I just need a break.

I need a minute.

Try not to get frustrated.

Did we miss an extra fold here?

Dude, I can feel it.

Of all the arts and crafts we did, we didn't do origami.

- Can we get a check, please? - Check?

Sorry.

- Good job. - Let's go!

Can I give you guys a hug? Can I?

It's okay. Take a deep breath.

We're okay.

- Arigato. - Arigato gozaimasu.

Phil!

Hello, Phil.

Nick and Mike, you probably know

what place you're in at this point.

Three teams behind us, so, nine, ten, 11.

- So we're team number eight. - That would be correct.

Good job with the math.

Are these the wings, and are those the head?

We just got to get this side.

- Something is not right here. - Okay.

- Yeah, something's not right there. - Okay.

Brother and sister.

- Yes. - Han and Holden.

Well, the great news is you are team number nine.

I do need to tell you that sometime

during the next leg of the race, you are going to encounter

the driver's seat.

The first team to get

to the driver's seat will be able

to choose how much work the other teams have to do

to earn their next clue.

Okay, well, we'll be ready for it,

and we'll keep on fighting.

Can we get a check?

Do you just want to look at it again?

- Because we're so close. - Okay.

Good.

It's okay. It's okay.

We're right there.

'Cause it says, make our way to the pit stop.

I don't know where that temple's at.

- Taxi? - No, it's full.

It's full. It's full. It's full. It's full.

Taxi?

Another one coming.

- So you think these are the wings? - Yeah.

Taxi!

- Can we get a check? - I think we did it, but...

Taxi, please.

Taxi!

Taxi!

- We go over there? - Okay.

Taxi?

Yes. Thank you.

Please just say "yes."

No good.

No? Okay. All right.

My gosh.

Man, that was the worst feeling in my entire life.

In the hospital somebody would be dead by now.

My gosh.

Bernie and car rig a in, I can see

that the day is taking its toll.

- Best day ever. - It's been a hard day.

Aw.

Why don't we just get this out of the way?

You're not eliminated. You're team number ten.

We've just sacrificed so much to be here.

We want this so badly, and I don't think

it's in either of us to ever just give up.

Can we get a check, please?

It was just one step towards the beginning

that we did incorrectly, and that threw us off.

- Good job. - Thank you.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

My goodness.

- How beautiful. - I know.

- Konnichiwa. - Konnichiwa.

Courtney and Jasmin, I'm really sorry to tell you

that you are the last team to arrive.

Probably no big surprise at this point.

No.

Unfortunately, you have been eliminated from the race.

Okay.

Sad to hear, but we're glad that we got to...

Glad that we got to be here.

Don't regret saying yes to taking on the amazing race.

And you are standing next to somebody who clearly loves you.

Jasmin has a heart of gold. She's such a giver.

She's so compassionate and caring.

I can see us living the rest of our life together.

It would be crazy for us to stop dreaming

and challenging ourselves just because

we only made it to leg three of the amazing race.

Our story doesn't end here, but we're still thankful

that we got to have this experience

and be able to take it forward with us.

Onto the next adventure.

Next time on the amazing race...

In the jungles of Bali...

Amazing race!

The first ever driver's seat

gives one team the power...

- This is an uneven path. - Let's go.

To shake up the race.

No way.

I'm kind of pissed.

- Claws are out. - Absolutely.

We want revenge, and we're gonna get it.
