Previously on the amazing race...

Fourteen teams began a race around the world.

Go!

In a season of surprises...

- This is a non-elimination leg. - My god! My god! Yeah!

That saw the return of classic game pieces...

- "Intersection ahead." - "Double u-turn ahead."

This is the most amazing experience.

And the introduction of new ones.

Wow. We're in the driver's seat!

There were incredible comebacks...

- What are we gonna do? - There's another team.

- Look. - What? - There are people here.

- I can't believe it. - Right there.

We're still in it, Jack. A million dollars. Let's do it.

And emotional eliminations.

Mark and Larry, jackye and Lauren, Ernest and Bridget,

Courtney and Jasmin, Bernie and car rig a in,

Scott and Lori, pops and Jeff, Nick and Mike,

Melinda and Erika, Brett and Mark, I am sorry

to tell you that you have been eliminated from the race.

Um, I'm proud of us because I feel like,

um, we are strong and we fought really hard.

Now it comes down to these four teams.

Coming up tonight in the first part

of a special two-leg finale,

spanning more than 5,000 miles across two continents,

more surprises await... What?!

For the final four.

Wait, that's insane.

The road to the final leg will be their toughest...

- Stop panicking. - Bro.

Like, I'm so scared that nothing is funny to me right now.

Ooh, this is no small feat.

And it starts right now.

- "Fly to Portugal." - Portugal!

The final four teams will now travel over 1,200 miles

from strasbourg, France to porto, Portugal.

Contrary to popular belief,

port wine is not made here in porto,

but rather up river where the teams are headed

in the douro valley.

Teams will now self-drive after they take part

in another amazing race first:

Valet roulette.

Teams will take their chances

when they pick either an automatic or a manual car

from a valet board.

This is luck of the draw.

And as we know from the past...

Third gear again.

I'm so frazzled right now, I can't even tell you.

Like, I'm in near to tears.

Push it!

There's just a lot again.

This could have a major impact on the rest of the race.

- Allez vous? - Okay.

I love to gamble.

Taxi? Fantastic.

We need to go to this travel agency.

So, we are going to voyages mosaic.

Final four feels really good.

I feel like we take on sort of

this underdog, wimpy vibe in our heads,

and that these other teams are, like, the popular kids.

The receipts say we've been doing really, really well.

We needed to remember that.

It's little things that make or break these legs now.

All of these teams are so good, so,

it's every little detail that matters.

It's right here?

- Okay. - Yeah. Voyages.

Okay, perfect.

- Au revoir. - Let's go.

- Carson; Hello. - Bonjour.

We're going to porto, Portugal.

Trying to make this flight.

Through Frankfurt.

"Fly to porto, Portugal.

"When you land, play the first-ever valet roulette

to win your car for the leg."

- "Good luck." - Let's go.

It's just the craziest feeling ever

to think there's only two legs left.

We just have to do

two more of these and then we could win a million dollars.

Before the race,

we really did not know how we were going to do it

because we work separately.

With this entire race,

we've been brought into each other's operating room

and given the stressful moments, and I'm really proud

of how we've done.

We're just gonna take all the lessons

that we've learned and just

try to do our best leg ever today

and get into the finals. That's all we want.

- Great. Thanks so much. - Guys, have a safe trip.

- Appreciate it. Thank you. - Thanks. Thanks so much.

Wish us luck.

Go.

"Fly to porto, Portugal."

"When you land, play the first-ever valet roulette

"to win your car for the leg." Wow.

Cool. Let's do it.

Obviously, there's a little bit of anxiety

going into this leg, because this is

the leg that's gonna decide who the final three are going to be,

and we want to be in that final three so bad.

In the last leg, we were really hard on each other,

and... we can't let that happen.

We're doing this to prove to ourselves

that we can, you know,

just do anything together as a team.

Definitely our children, and, you know,

bringing that big prize to them

it's-it's the biggest goal.

Okay. We got to go to voyages mosaic.

It is the eleventh leg, the penultimate leg.

We are starting in fourth.

We're pretty used to be on the bottom, so we know how

to fight with our backs against the wall.

Um, and I guess it's kind of like our home comfort place.

I think we're doing this race to prove to ourselves that

we have what it takes to work together.

But we want to get the job done

and get that tangible confirmation

of a million dollars.

We're going to porto, Portugal,

flying through Frankfurt.

Thank you so much.

All the teams are on this flight,

so, equalizing flight. Good for us.

"Valet roulette. Select any key from the valet roulette board

"and hand it to the valet.

"Once chosen, you may not switch.

"There's two automatic cars...

- And three manual cars." - "And three manual cars."

So that means the odds are already against us.

Yeah.

If it's manual, he has to drive, which is scary and freaky.

Because you're navigating.

So, really hoping we get automatic

from this valet roulette.

Um... it could mean the difference for us.

If people don't drive stick very well,

then, if they get stick, that would be great.

Just add a little bit of stress to it.

For us, it's the same either way. Um...

Yeah, so if we get the automatic,

there's more of a chance that they get the manual.

Yeah.

We have a manual at home, so, not an issue there.

Yeah.

9:30. It said 9:30.

We board at 9:00.

We're about to board our flight to porto, Portugal.

Porto, Portugal.

We're going to porto, baby.

Going to Portugal. Let's get it.

We're going to Portugal!

Portugal.

Let's go. Go, go, go, go, go, go.

- Sprint. This way. - Come on, Holden.

- Let's go, Jack, we got this. - We got this.

- This way. - Let's go.

They're going that way.

Escalators? Let's go.

- Let's go, let's go. - Think we got the other two.

- That's zero. - Just keep your eyes peeled.

Down, down, down, down, down, down, down.

Two. Two?

- It's right here. It's right there. - Go, go, go, go.

- Jack, over here. - Come on, Holden.

- Why'd you stop going down the stairs? - This is two.

- Is it here? - It's down here.

They made it down first.

- Where is it? - Do you see it?

Right there, do you think, car?

Right there!

- My gosh. - Damn it.

- Okay, which one? - Sure, go for it.

- What do we do? - You have to give to me.

- Okay. - Okay. Take a big breath.

Okay?

This is for you.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Yeah, we're going red.

- Red, sis? - Got it, got it, got it.

Route info. "Drive to granjão, vila marim

to find your next clue."

- It doesn't say any... - No directions.

It doesn't say any directions.

Okay, car. Thank you.

We're about to find out

if we have an automatic or a stick.

Um, really hoping for automatic.

For the first valet roulette,

we arrived second at the roulette wheel.

We're third in line, and we don't know

what kind of car we got yet.

- Um... - We're in fourth place,

and we just played valet roulette.

- Yeah. - We don't know what car we've gotten.

We're ready to go, though.

- It's a fast... - Let's see.

Okay. What do we got?

- His hand's on the thing. - Looks like...

- Looks auto... it's automatic. - Nice, nice.

- Manual? - Yeah. Okay.

That's fine.

- We got a map. - Thank you so much.

Thank you. Yes! We got a map, baby.

Manny, Manny, Manny.

We are in first place. And we got an automatic car,

which is kind of perfect.

No, that's our guy.

- Thanks, guys. - Okay.

- All right. - Let's do it.

- Thank you, bro. Obrigado. - Obrigado.

- Here you go, babe. - Okay, it's automatic.

- There's a map. - Yup.

We're stick.

We're kind of flying blind, but not really.

It says "vila real," and that's the sign that we're taking.

- Wait. Car. -. Maps.

Dude, life's so much easier with a map.

We've made all the rookie mistakes already.

Like, we're ready to have, like, a majestic leg.

We're ready to be stallions.

Self-drive means anything can happen.

And all we can hope right now is that, like,

other teams are getting lost.

I have ip4 vila real and a4.

Where do I do? Here?

- That's scary. Yeah. Go. Go do it. - My gosh.

I mean it says "vila real," does it not?

That's terrifying.

- Ooh! - Okay.

Okay, just keep going here.

Let's get... let's get some directions, yeah?

No, let's not.

Well, do I need to turn around, or what do I do?

- Nope, stay here. - Okay.

There's two ways of panicking.

I think it either leads you to... Complete joy,

and you're great under pressure,

or it can really cause major harm.

And Alyssa and Josiah

and Ana and Jonathan are somewhat of panickers.

We've also seen, though, han and Holden

- yeah, han and Holden... - Crack under pressure a lot.

Um, right now, we got off to a really good start.

Main thing is just now staying disciplined,

because we know all three of those teams

really, really good teams. They can all beat us.

They've done it before, but we know we can beat them, too.

All right, river road, where are you, is my question.

All right, I'm gonna go this way, 'cause we drove this way.

Driving's getting a little stressful,

but we're going to maintain... Being chill.

We can do it.

- Ready, car? - Yup, let's do it.

All right.

- Wow! - Yes!

- So amazing. - Yup, we're first, Jack..

- Route info. - Info.

We're always on the move.

The douro valley is renowned

for its manicured, terraced vineyards,

painstakingly built over the centuries

so that vintners can grow their vines on a flat surface

and also roll heavy wine barrels on the steep slopes.

After paddling across this river,

teams will roll two barrels uphill

to a wine-making house.

They'll be pushing it to get there,

but their hard work will be paid off with a clue.

- Let's do it. - Okay.

- This is so awesome. - Whoa! I could roll down this hill.

My god!

- Hello. - Hello.

Let's choose that boat

- so we're closer to that. - Yeah, yeah, yeah.

All right, let's get in.

- Ready? -Okay. - Yup.

Yup. Perfect.

Okay, Jack, you ready?

All right, which way?

Here we go.

And paddle, two, three, paddle, two, three.

Paddle, two, three.

- Paddle, two, three. - Paddle, two, three...

- This is so cool. - Paddle, two, three.

- Should I go back? - Is this, like, the longer way?

Yeah, this is the scenic route. Oops.

Well, I want to go the other one. That one's faster.

Yes. We got off the main

motorway, which is called, "autoestrada" here,

and we hopped onto a highway

which is taking us through this winding path

through the mountains.

Very lovely but, not-not exactly efficient.

Okay, hold on. Look at there. How many kilometers?

- Hold on. Just stay here. Stay here. - Same... 31.

- Thirty-one. Just stay here. - This thing is slow.

It goes at 60. Everybody is gonna catch up.

Okay, we're on the highway now. Don't be annoying.

Don't be annoying.

I'm sure that's gonna throw off some other teams, as well,

so we're not gonna freak out.

We're along the river now, like, for real this time.

All right, let's get out of this bus' way, so...

I... han, I don't know if we're going the right direction.

Okay. Do you want to... Take a breath?

I think we should ask someone for directions.

Okay.

Okay, so, we go...

Okay. Esquerda.Okay.

Obrigado.

- We need to go up and turn left. - Okay.

- We were going the wrong way. - Yup.

You're fine. I know a little bit of Spanish, and I know esquerda.

That means "left," so we're gonna follow her.

So, up this hill. All the way around the roundabout!

- Frick, man. - It's too late.

Stop panicking.

Stop panicking.

Frick, man.

I need you to, like, pay attention to where I'm pointing,

'cause that's all I can do, and that's what

- the lady showed me, okay? - Bro.

We got to do this, though. We're good.

It's unfortunate we burned a little bit of time, but,

you know what, it happens.

Wow.

We're surrounded by vineyards as far as the eye can see.

The energy has completely changed. Nobody's helping

anyone anymore.

Basically, we're going to a24,

which we saw signs for on the way here.

So, as long as we head back out the way we came,

we should be good.

Okay, which one, babe?

There's a24. Chaves.

- Yeah, get to a24, and, -we're going left. - Chaves?

- Going left. - Going left?

Yeah, there's only one that goes left.

Which exit on the roundabout?

Only one goes left.

This one?

- Nope, nope, nope. Left, left. - You didn't...

You were literally going right when I told you to go left.

There's no... a.

This is no a24. A24's for over there.

- Hang on. - Let me go back.

No, no. This might be it. Go here.

It's this one, I think.

- This is it. - My god.

Turn. Turn.

And paddle, both of us.

Paddle, two, three.

- I'll go? - Yup.

Okay.

- Fantástico. - Lovely.

"Choose two wine barrels with matching labels."

Let's make sure they match.

I say let's do porto 'cause they really match.

Okay. Great. Let's do it.

What?

Let's roll.

- Go fast. It's easier. - Yup.

"Roll your wine barrels to the storage house."

- It's up there. - Ooh, this is no small feat.

- I see it. - You see it?

- Yes. - Sweet.

- Okay, ready? - Yeah.

Three clues. Ready?

"Paddle across the douro river

"and roll two empty wine barrels to the storage house

to receive your next clue."

Okay, baohan, this is physicality.

- We got this, okay? - We got it.

You got this, Jack.

I'm assuming storage house is up here, right?

- There's a marker right there. - A marker up there?

Yeah.

The path of the wine barrel rolling was tricky,

because you'd reach the end of a hill and be like, "finally!"

And then you would see it continued spiraling up the hill.

It was so much longer than we realized.

We got a little bit... Longer to go, Jack.

- Really? - Yeah.

I have no clue how much those barrels weighed,

but it was decidedly too much.

You had to put your back -into that thing.

Yes.

I mean, seriously.

Push. Now push again.

Push again. Push again.

Push again! Push again!

Yes, I may have struggled

with rolling up the wine barrels. Okay?

Come on, Jack.

It's hard.

Come on.

I mean, here's the thing.

He's stronger than I am. We've always known that.

I have my own strengths.

You do, certainly.

Certainly nothing to do with strength.

Keep going, Jack.

- I'm trying. - You got this.

You got this, even if it's little.

You want to switch? Take this one.

- You're bleeding. - Where?

- Knees. - No, I'm not.

- You ready? - Yeah.

- Opposites, opposites. - Opposites?

- Yeah. - Okay.

Two.

Three. Four.

We're making good progress.

Han and Holden are behind us, just took a boat.

My blood's getting all over this thing.

Maybe it'll just look like wine.

Han, you need to help me turn.

Han, you're, like, pushing it so many times

- that it's pushing us. - Okay.

You need to stick with one side. Stick with one side.

- I'll stay on this side. - Okay. Go.

My gosh.

- We're so close. - Just keep on going.

Okay, go. Get out of the boat and grab that rope.

We're so close, Jack.

You got this.

Keep trying.

Okay.

Good job, Jack.

Thank you.

- Obrigado. - Obrigado.

Obrigado.

"Drive to the castle in the town of Santa Maria da feira

to find your next clue."

- Okay. Here we go. - Okay.

"Choose two wine barrels with matching labels."

- Tinto and tinto? - Sure.

All right. Do you want to lead?

- I can. - You can lead.

It's tough, but you got it.

- Good job, guys. - Good job, guys.

We're in it. We're gonna make it.

- You guys are doing great. - You guys, too.

I want to make it to the top.

I want to make it to the top with my brother.

Long as you're moving forward, you're making progress.

You're doing great.

There's one clue in there, still.

"Paddle across the douro river

"and roll two empty wine barrels

to the storage house to receive your next clue."

- Let's do this. - Let's go.

- I don't... -Go back? - I... you need to be 100% sure.

Exit?

I'm back to exactly where we left.

Just go back, the other way.

- Straight? - I said go back the other way.

- Straight here. Straight here. - That... I...

- Please use words. The... - I'm using the word.

- The... no. - Go back the other way.

- Where we were? - Just go back the other way.

You're not communicating clearly.

Would you like to switch?

No, you're worse at navigation,

so I don't know why we'd switch.

All right.

Okay, let's go quick.

All right!

Three, two, one, go. Three, two, one, go.

Communication's everything here, right? I'm gonna be in the back.

They're gonna paddle fast, so... Three, two, one, go.

We were so excited to hop in a raft

and paddle. We love kayaking together.

We actually white-water rafted together recently, as well.

We hopped in the water, and it didn't go

as smoothly as I would have hoped.

Let's go.

Every time we would drift, like,

too far to the left, we'd over correct to the right.

Don't go on my... you're going on my side too much.

We know, at this point,

there's hardly any room for error at all.

- Hey, guys. - Hey.

- Hey, guys. - Hey, y'all.

You guys are strong,

- you guys are gonna do fine. - You can do it.

Don't go on my side. We have to go that way.

Alyssa, I'm guiding this boat.

Well, you're...

No, they're not doing well at all.

Okay, don't be a...

To prove a point and then... us up.

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.

Don't go on my side. We have to go that way.

Alyssa, I'm guiding this boat.

Okay, don't be a... To prove a point

and then... us up.

I think we should both be together.

I'm paddling super hard. Alyssa's paddling very hard.

Just feels like we're overcorrecting.

- I feel like I should be back here. - Okay, come back here.

I was just feeling the pressure.

So I got snippy, and, I was sorry about it.

- No, it wasn't good, but... - I feel like we did it quick,

but we were just overcorrecting a little bit.

A little bit back and forth.

All right.

And... dismount.

- Okay. Thank you. - All right.

- Good job, Jack. - Okay.

That was tough.

That was really, really tough.

Come on, han.

Here we go.

Come on, han.

Push. You got it.

I need you to push. I need you to give everything you have.

It's not meant to be easy.

If it was easy, anyone could do it.

Pain is temporary. Fight for it.

Challenges like that... they're just hard, and, like,

the only way to get through them is, like, pushing yourself.

Han, we're almost there.

Constant affirmation. That's all I could give her.

'Cause I was not gonna push her barrel for her.

I was... I was having plenty of fun doing my own.

I see it. I literally see it.

- What do you see? - I see the end.

That was the hardest... Friggin' thing ever. Okay.

- My god. Push it to him. - Come on.

Okay.

Tinto. Tinto.

- Let's go, baby. - Obrigado.

All right, ready? Push. Let's go.

We're currently in third place... Fighting it out.

- Hey, you guys got it. - You guys got it.

You're so strong, girl.

- Let's go. - Go, go, go, go, go, go.

To the right.

- Sharp right. - Up this... It's the storage house.

This is where... you work, don't wine.

Okay, here. Pull over so you could try this,

'cause I really feel like we're stranded.

You can't stop in the middle of the road, though

- I'm not your... - Well, why wait till we pull over?

- I said pull over. - Where do I pull over?

Doesn't mean stop in the middle of the road.

I have nowhere to pull over.

You know what "pull over" means?

- Get onto... on the side of the road. - We can't try to pull over

a stop sign entering the highway.

- It means stop. - Wild.

You might want to just,

stop and ask somebody where this place is.

May I see the map?

What do you want me to do?

All right.

Was there any additional info with this?

That's all that came with it.

They gave me the map and, that's it.

All right, let's go. Running.

We just got to keep fighting.

It's not gonna be handed to us.

My god.

Feel free to get there first and then come back and help me.

Olá.

Have this one. I'm gonna get you another one.

Don't worry. I got two for you.

Yeah, babe.

- Obrigado. Thank you so much. - Obrigado.

All right, let's go.

We are lost. I have no idea where we're at.

- Can I ask this tow-truck guy? - Yeah.

- Yeah. - Taxi. Taxi and a tow truck.

Perfect.

I'm looking at the stupid map and this does nothing for me.

Now you see?

Thank you so much. Obrigado. Thank you.

Take deep breaths. We're okay.

Can you help us?

We're lost.

How do we get here?

Yeah.

Yes. How? Back?

Come back.

One. One.

- One. Two. - Two.

One and then two. Straight.

Obrigado.

Thank you so much.

Like, I'm so scared

that nothing is funny to me right now.

- Yeah. - Like, we get distracted, and

I'm afraid of the fear

I'm afraid of feeling comfortable. Sorry.

All right, this is gonna be a really long drive, so...

Okay.

Parking. All right.

There's no one here.

We're done -wow. Yeah, we're so done.

This is a crappy final leg, dude.

- Move. - Enough complaining.

- It's not gonna help. - It's not supposed to help.

- Okay. - It's not supposed to help.

But... but it makes it worse.

- No, it doesn't make it worse. - Yeah, it does.

No, it doesn't. For you.

Okay. Route info.

"Paddle across the douro river and roll two empty wine barrels

to the storage house to receive your next clue."

Okay.

Water? You serious?

What a nightmare.

Wow.

Go against the currents, go... yeah.

Okay, switch.

You need to go towards the left, okay, 'cause

- opposite? - Yeah.

No, you don't want to go opposite?

Be quiet, be quiet, just row.

No, no, no, don't do anything different.

- Just row. - Why are you being so disrespectful?

Because I need you to listen.

I am listening.

I'm literally not doing anything.

Just row, dude.

Let me worry about steering.

Why can't you just have fun at this point?

Is this fun to you?

So you only have fun when you come in first?

Just look around. It's so pretty.

You're just irritating.

Okay. Is this what we need?

Let me see.

- Branco? How many? Two? - Um... Ready to go?

- Nope. - Okay.

My clue's completely wet.

Well, I guess we'll just roll it.

We're going to Santa Maria -da feira, a castle.

Okay.

- A41. - Towards Lisboa?

- Yes. Yes. - Okay. Okay. Okay.

Work. Work.

- Happy pride. - Happy pride for w

- lesboa? - Lesboa. Yeah.

Lisbon.

Shout out to all my lisbons out there.

We are headed to a castle in Santa Maria da feira.

We know we have a lead on Alyssa and Josiah.

It's not much. They are terminators.

They look at challenges and they finish 'em with ease.

We saw the first two teams in front of us,

but nobody behind us, and we are just trying

to increase that gap as much as we possibly can.

The next signage we're gonna be looking for

is gonna be a41 south.

We are locked in, we are focused.

Our lifeblood right now is this drive, these directions.

- "Porto coimbra." - Nope.

"Lisboa." did I miss it?

I'm on the amazing race with my brother.

Where are we? You know?

I don't see castelohere.

Dude, should we turn around?

Why don't... yeah, let's look for directions.

Ask someone for directions. Yeah.

- Excuse me. - Telefono?

- Telefono? Yes. - Yeah.

So you're gonna... And then, you're gonna make...

And then you're gonna make a right at the next roundabout.

- Right at the church. - A right at the church.

Whoa!

Are we about to do something medieval?

My god.

Are we about to do archery?

Look at that.

Little castle.

- Our clue box. - Park right here. Perfect.

- Stretch those legs. - This is awesome.

That was a long drive.

You want to do it? I've been reading a lot.

- Ooh. Roadblock. - Roadblock.

"Who's got a steady hand?"

Teams must now enter this castle... Santa Maria

da feira... where a number of notable battles

and conflicts have taken place over the centuries.

After suiting up in medieval armor,

teams must make their way

all the way up to the castle Plaza.

Here, they'll be given an archery test.

And have seven tries to hit three bulls eyes.

Once their aim is dead-on, they'll get a clue.

- Rock, paper, scissors? - Sure!

Rock, paper, scissors, shoot.

- Okay, you do it. - Okay, I'll do it.

Okay. Open her up.

"Suit up in medieval armor and mount a steed."!

- Wow. - "Then using a bow and arrow,

"hit the bullseye on three moving targets

to receive your next clue."

You get to do the coolest stuff.

We were joking in the car.

We were like, "well, what if we live our medieval fantasies?

What if it's archery?"

And it was!

My god.

- It's the best day of my life. It's... - Wow.

Wow.

- Person, please. - Wow.

This is the best day of my life.

I got fully suited up in metal suit of armor.

When my friends who I play dungeons & dragons with

see this, they are going to freak out.

There we go.

- This is cool. - This is incredible.

"Who's got a steady hand?

Alyssa, Holden and Jonathan must perform this roadblock."

- Hello. - Dude.

- I'm so excited. - Dude. - This is so sick.

Can you talk about me living my fantasy?

I'm so excited to wear the armor. It looks amazing.

But I'm also really excited to do bow-and-arrow.

God.

The wine barrels... it was tough.

It was, physically, strenuous.

Go ahead, baby. You can pass. I need a break.

I could only push mine so much.

I had to, like, literally park mine,

and then he would push the other one.

And then we would kind of, like, switch off,

because I don't know how I would have been able

to push my barrel all the way to the top.

It was-it was hard.

We're so far behind.

- You look so cool. - Thank you.

This is heavy.

Sir, on the left side, please.

To put on the suit of armor was so hard.

I was scared that if I didn't finish

after my first try, my muscles were gonna wear out.

My god.

- My god. - This is the best day of my life.

You look so sick.

- Allow me. - Okay.

- One thing. - Yes.

- Be careful. This is a weapon. - Yes.

Dangerous weapon. Be careful, all right?

- You're right-handed, right? - Yes.

All right, so, you're gonna hold it with your left hand.

- Yup. - Put yourself in a good stance

towards the target, so kind of sideways

- with the left leg in front. - Yeah.

Draw the bow all the way back to your face.

And you're gonna want to open your hand.

There we go.

- So, get a few practice shots in. - Okay.

- Thank you. - Thank you so much. Okay. Thanks.

Let's go.

I just can't win, man.

Stay with me, babe.

Hey, that's it.

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

All right. Two clues.

"Who's ready..." "Who's got a steady hand?" I do.

- Hi. - Hello.

- Hi. - Hi. How's it going?

- Good. - What's your name?

- Holden. - Okay.

This is very heavy and I'm very sore from the wine barrels,

so, my arms are already...

My arms and shoulders are already feeling it.

Definitely gonna make it a lot more challenging.

These two are going at it up here.

- I know. - Calm down, guys. We can talk it out.

I think I kind of want to try.

- Whenever you're ready. - Okay.

Just inform your squire.

Squire?

- I think I'm ready. - Perfect. Please.

Come with me.

Mount my steed.

Go to your horse.

- Yeah. - Okay.

Move the target.

What?

No way.

My gosh.

Wait, that's insane.

So now I'm sitting on a wooden horse,

shooting at targets that are moving.

"You must hit the bullseye

"on three moving targets in one attempt.

You have seven arrows per attempt."

Is that okay? Or that's not bullseye?

Not bullseye. You need to put on the bullseye.

No.

You need to put it in the red.

- Sir. - I started to realize

I need to go for the smallest one first,

because if I don't get that one,

there's no chance I'm gonna get the bigger one.

Yes.

Nice, car.

Yes. Is that in the red?

I think it is.

- No. No red. - Aw!

You have three shots.

Shoot.

I almost get the medium one.

Just missed it.

Okay, only two more shots.

If you miss one, you need to repeat again.

Yes.

- The last one. - Yep.

I have one arrow left to hit the big bullseye.

- Yes. I got it. - Yes.

- Got it. - I got it. I'm done.

What?

- Kneel. - Yes.

You promise you serve your land?

- Yes. - Promise you serve -your family. -Yes.

- Promise you serve your friends. - Yes.

Rise like a knight!

Yes!

- I got knighted. - You got knighted.

Thank you. Thank you.

Yeah!

Thank you. Obrigado.

Thank you, squire.

A million dollars is one thing, but it

genuinely was one of the best moments of my life.

Good job, car.

- That was awesome. - Route info. Thank you.

"Drive to campanhã porto train station

"and then take a train to são bento porto train station.

"When you arrive, search for a man selling tiles

in the station's lobby to receive your next clue."

- Okay. Here we go. - Okay.

Yeah.

My god. You are so lucky.

Hey, how is it?

It's so much fun. It's so much fun. So cool.

- And it's not that hard. - So, so, so cool.

Good luck, guys.

Wow.

This is amazing.

- Wow. - Alyssa!

Yeah, babe!

- She's so cool. - You look great.

That's my knight in shining armor over there.

Come on!

Okay.

- We need to hurry. - Okay, okay, okay.

Come on, stay with me.

Here we go. Still feeling positive.

There we go.

Absolutely, Alyssa.

You want to take more practice shots?

If not, tell your squire -I'm ready to try.

- You're ready and... - Okay. I'm ready.

You have to jump to the horse.

Okay.

Over like this?

Yes. Okay.

Move the targets.

A little different in all this armor,

with moving targets, but that's okay.

All right.

If you miss one, you need to start again.

Okay.

You got it, babe.

Alyssa, it's caddo hill.

Yeah, Holden!

When Holden comes out, I was like,

"is that Tyrion Lannister?"

- "No, it's Holden." - Short king!

Here's a few things that you need to take care of.

The arrow always has to do a 90 degree angle with the bow.

Just doesn't feel right.

It's because of the armor.

It's more difficult.

- Nice. - Yes. Yes.

Red.

That's my girl.

Almost.

You have four arrows for two targets, okay?

Okay.

Almost.

You're okay.

- Yes. Good. - Nice.

Yes, babe.

The last one, all right?

Breathe. Concentrate.

Catch up again.

- You need to repeat again, okay? - Yeah.

Breathe.

- Breathe, rest. - Alyssa.

You're doing awesome, babe.

You got it, baby.

So, my baby naya wrote us notes for...

She-she put days,

but essentially what she meant was every leg,

and this one is for day 11.

And this girl said...

"It's not over until Phil says it's over."

It's like she knew today was gonna happen.

My baby naya, she's beyond her years, so...

All right. I'm gonna get back in line.

I think I just need to, like, give my arms a rest.

That didn't hit, so I need to aim higher.

Last arrow.

Come on, Holden. You got it.

Deep breaths.

Alyssa is ready.

So close.

You got it next time, Holden.

Come.

You got it, baby.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm okay. Thank you so much.

I never really became hopeless.

Like, the whole time, I was like,

"I know I'm gonna get this.

It's just gonna take a few tries."

Tilt it 'cause it gives you more space on the horse to, like

- I see. - Keep it down, yeah?

- Like a mongol. - Yeah, exactly.

That's where horse archery comes from.

There you go.

My goodness, Andre.

Man. You are a wizard.

- Nice. Red. - Red.

- Almost. - Almost.

Yes. Last target.

Okay.

This girl lives for this kind of stuff.

Red. Good.

Yeah, babe.

She's just a champ.

Kneel.

I was so excited when he said, "kneel down,"

and he brings out this sword.

And I'm like, "I think I'm about

to get knighted in Portugal."

Promise you defend your land.

I promise.

- Promise you defend your family. - I promise.

- Promise you defend your friends. - I promise.

Rise like a knight.

- And your husband. - Thank you.

That's for you.

Thank you so much.

Move targets!

Okay. Last two.

The instructor, Andre, total chiller,

was like, "if you shoot it, like, horizontally",

"that's how the mongols did it." And once I did that...

Yeah.

My arm was, like, rejuvenated.

- Let's go! - Yeah, Holden!

- You crushed it! - I do it for my people.

Okay.

Holden. Good. Yeah.

He does it for his people, I guess.

Kneel.

Promise you protect your land.

Promise you protect your family.

Promise you protect your friends.

Rise like a knight.

Let's go, Holden.

Thank you.

- Obrigado. - Obrigado.

Crushed it!

To the car.

"Search for a man selling tiles

to the station's lobby to receive your next clue."

All right, let's do it.

So, let's go.

We need to get to campanhã train station.

We're heading back to porto to take the train.

I was trying to get back based on memory, honestly.

Um, I'm kind of scared that we need to board a train,

because it might mean that we have to wait for some people.

I know.

I was channeling my inner mongol. I am not Mongolian,

but I do think that it is fascinating

that, through that very technique,

they were able to have the largest empire

of any single, like, human empire ever.

I'm going straight, right?

Yeah.

Time to get philiminated.

Wow, this is, like, a real castle. Holy moly.

Roadblock.

"Who's got a steady hand?

Alyssa, Holden and Jonathan..."

Wow.

- She broke your castle there. - Sorry.

You know, I wish I could...

Be in a different state of mind right now,

'cause it sounds pretty cool, but, you know...

It's tough to enjoy it when, you know you're going home.

I was already, in my mind, accepting of the fact that

we were going to be eliminated.

These are pretty heavy.

So, unfortunately, I just couldn't enjoy myself.

I know there are some people who,

once they realize they're facing elimination,

they are able to just, let go

and kind of have fun in the moment, and

I just couldn't do that.

This is simple, like this.

You look cool, dad.

Hello.

This is so cool.

I bet the armor's so heavy, but I hope he has a blast.

This is so funny, seeing him dressed up like that.

We took a wrong exit,

and now we went back over the bridge.

So now we just have to repeat that,

but again, in Europe, that's not so easy.

It's okay. Mistakes happen.

They might mean that some people catch up.

It was really nice to beat han and Holden to that challenge.

So we just have to, like,

nail these directions to the train station.

Goal is at least third today, baby.

Well, we're gonna try to gun down Jack and Carson right now.

- There's always a chance we can pass them. - Do you think this is to porto?

Um, no. I think you should go back.

- Back trace. So left. - Okay.

We are back on track.

Back over the bridge.

I have faith we'll be there soon.

Still not seeing Jonathan and Ana, which is crazy.

Move targets.

Okay.

That definitely looks harder than it looks.

- One. - Nice!

Jonathan, breathe. Concentrate.

'Kay.

My gosh. He was, like, an inch away from the target.

Try to not miss any more.

Okay.

If not, you know you need to repeat again.

The one in the middle.

It's not working out.

You want to start again?

- Sure. - Okay.

Porto campanhã.

Yeah, there it is. Parking.

- Where? Where? Word. - It's right there. That sign.

Okay.

Where are we going?

São bento. 18:40.

There's one in nine minutes, Jack.

We're here.

- Near the train station. - We're near the train station.

We just need to find the marked parking lot.

Porto são bento.

Track four. Is that right?

- Yes. - Okay. Perfect. - Great.

That looks like a train station.

I-I think that's the parking lot right there.

- Right there, to your right. - Thank you.

- Okay. - Okay.

- Um... track six. Yeah. - One to 16.

Okay, so now we need to take a train to

- I see them. I saw them right there. - I know.

It really doesn't matter unless we make the 6:40.

We want to get on that train.

- Porto são bento. Yeah. - Whoa. Right on.

As quickly as possible.

What time is it?

No one is on this train with us.

And we were the first car in the parking lot.

So I think we're in first place.

- All right, we good? - All right.

- All right, cool. - Track four, track four, track four.

Come on.

I am hoping no one hops on this train with us.

What is there to do... worry?

- No, no, no. - No. Do you think

this might be the detour? Han, I see it. Let's go.

- Yep. - Han and Holden.

My god.

My god, you guys.

- Sorry, guys. - No, you're good.

Yeah.

No way.

Thank god.

Are we in the right place?

Just got to find the parking lot.

Bro.

Just got to find the parking lot.

Whoa!

Bro. Someone ran into me.

I'm good. ¿Está bien?

- It looks good. - All right, let's go.

- There's no damage or anything. - No.

We just got hit by a car.

A car rear-ended us.

I don't know where to go.

Just, it's a roundabout. Just go around it.

Like, to the left?

- Just go around the roundabout. - All right.

Thank god.

- My god, you guys. - Good job, Holden.

- Good job, Carson. Good job, Jack. - Good, han.

- Let's go, you guys. - Good job, guys.

Do you guys know how many stops it is?

- One. - Just one I think. I think it's just

from here to here.

Did Ana and Jonathan show up?

- I don't see... - I haven't seen them.

- They weren't at archery at all? - No.

Okay, good.

- Yes. Last one. - Okay. Last one.

Nice.

You have three arrows for one target.

Okay.

Breathe. Concentrate.

- Yes! - Good.

Finished.

He did it.

Promise you defend your land.

Promise you defend your family.

Promise you defend your friends.

Rise like a knight.

Thank you.

Okay. Wow. Cool. Thanks.

- Thanks. Thank you so much. - Okay.

Thank you.

"Take a train to são bento porto train station."

- My god. - "When you arrive,

search for a man selling tiles."

- All right. - Thank you, thank you, thank you.

That was so cool.

Do we go right?

Sure.

We need to get back to where we just were at the train station.

But I'm just nervous, because, like,

we were already at the train station

and we didn't see the parking.

So, like, now we're gonna get back there

and just keep our fingers crossed

that we can find the parking this time.

Can you help me with directions

to campanhã porto train station?

- So, head southwest. Okay. - Okay.

Roundabout. Take the first exit.

- It's easy to get lost. - Like, these roads are crazy.

Driving with clarity is really important.

- Bye. Thank you. - Thank you for all your help.

Just a little bit more driving involved.

We're a little bit over the driving.

We'll see what happens at the train station.

To get equalized on a train during a leg would be...

Sad, but, whatever, we just keep going.

There are so many mosaic tiles in porto

that it's earned a reputation

for being an outdoor art exhibit.

But that's just the half of it.

There are thousands more inside porto's buildings,

like this place... the são bento train station.

- Let's find our tile man. - The tile man.

Okay.

- I think this way. - This way.

- There he is. - Tiles, tiles, tiles.

- Hello. - Excuse me, sir.

- Hello. Can we have our next clue? - Hi.

Okay.

- Olá. -Hello. - Hello.

Here's that.

This is it..

- Ode porto wine house. - Okay, that's the clue.

Ask someone.

- Hi, can you do us a favor? - Yeah.

We need to go to ode porto wine house in ribeira.

Come here.

- Down this way. - Yeah.

Go down this street.

And it's by to the river.

Great. Thank you so much.

Excuse us, excuse us, excuse us. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

There's marked parking.

My god.

We were so freaking close.

Let's go.

- Go. - Hello.

Um, I need to go on train to... São bento porto.

Have you seen other teams?

How many?

Two others? Okay.

In 20 meters, you're gonna make a right at rua de são.

So you should park in the marked parking area.

Which way?

- Thank you. - Thank you.

- All right, let's go. - We got to move.

We are third to the train station, 'cause we got lost.

We're good. Jonathan and Ana are still behind us. We're good.

- Nervous until we get to the mat. - That's all.

All we can do is hope that we don't see them.

Yeah, yeah, turn right here, guys. Turn right here.

Right there. Clue box.

Grab it.

- Good job, guys. - Okay.

- Still two in there? - Yep.

Route info.

"This is it. Earn your way to the final three."

"Complete a mosaic."

81 of these distinctive handmade ceramic tiles

will now serve as puzzle pieces

that teams must put together to reveal the location

of the final international pit stop on their amazing race.

Good job.

Okay.

Quiet.

Yeah, careful. They're... They're really fragile.

Do you... wow. This is very detailed.

Yeah, you work on that, Jack.

I'll be just, um, working on... The puzzle.

This is definitely part of a gondola.

Gondolas are all right here.

All water.

Se... seven, eight, nine.

Okay, there are nine across, car.

This will be number six, if we can remember that.

Okay.

This one is tricky, tricky, tricky.

That doesn't look right.

That looks right.

- Right there. - Yeah.

Ooh, look at this beautiful bird.

Okay, baohan, here's your building.

Gonna put this as a water pile.

Yeah.

So this is the height of it. It's got to be.

Okay, is that eight?

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

- Yeah, perfect. - Perfect. Okay.

Hey, we're getting places, though, Jack.

Completely.

Let's think, let's think, let's think.

I don't know if I'm, like, at a point

where I'm trying to shove pieces where they don't belong.

It just all needs to be shifted over one.

You see?

We've got to move those things up there.

Slide this all the way to the top.

Looks like the train's a little late.

- Yeah. - It said 26. It's 27 right now.

I think it's, I think it's till 33.

We think Jonathan and Ana

are the only team behind us right now.

Yep. This is it.

Okay.

We're in the wrong line. This is information.

Stay here, Ana.

Okay...

No, no, no.

Okay.

Just stay right there.

Why are you pushing me back? That's...

You just stepped right in front of me.

- I'm not. I'm just trying to get in line. - No, you just...

You literally stepped right in front of me.

- Don't do that. - Seriously?

- I wasn't stepping in front of you. - You just stepped

right in front of me when I was walking.

We were trying to, like, switch lines, and I

cut him off, and I felt like he overreacted,

but he was just kind of like, "that was unkind."

It's... okay.

But you didn't want to.

I think it started from the navigation.

Like, it's just been, like, a whole-day ordeal.

I was just trying to get in line.

You don't need to do that. I'm already in line.

You don't need to do that.

You're acting silly, dude.

Being in last, and the struggles with navigation,

it all just came to a head there.

It was, not our best moment.

I'm just, like, tense.

Yeah, I can tell.

Please come before they show up.

I just really don't want to see them here.

Thank you.

Why are treating me like I did something wrong?

- You stepped in front of me. - That's rude.

Don't do that.

There's Jonathan. My god.-...

Damn it. They're so lucky.

You've been treating me like this for the last two hours.

- No. You stepped in front of me. - Don't do that.

You can't go back to sometime two hours ago

- 'cause you're upset. - We were...

No, you're trying to go back to something two hours ago.

Because I'm trying to explain to you that I haven't

done anything wrong, -no. Yeah, you did do something wrong.

- And you're just being rude. - No, you've been disrespectful all day.

Damn it.

This sucks.

I can't believe they caught up.

When you did something wrong, I didn't say anything.

That's wrong.

Yeah, you see, you always deny what you do. Yeah.

- Never take accountability. - You don't want to talk.

How am I supposed to take accountability

if you don't even talk?

It's just us and them.

This sucks.

I never meant to make you to feel like...

- For us getting lost. - No, it's too late.

Okay.

It's too late. You already did. It's too late.

We are not done.

Jonathan and Ana are down there.

I hate that they're here.

We both hate that they're here.

It's hard to accept, but we got to be focused.

- We can do this. - We're together.

We're gonna do this.

- Hey. We're gonna do this. - Yep.

Hey.

We got it, baby. All right?

It's exc... it's exciting.

Well, I'm trying to stay positive, and you keep

- shushing me. - I don't want to hear that.

Don't give me that positivity...

Yeah. It's all coming together now.

Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep.

- Four, five, six. - Three, six, nine.

- Okay, six. - It's gonna be nine by nine.

Yep, here we go.

- Go right there. Boom. - Okay.

I don't think so.

The cloth.

The cloth!

Okay, check.

You can put it on the wall.

- Yes. Okay, let's do it. - Thank you, thank you.

- Obrigado. - Okay, car.

- Start with the bottom right. - Okay.

So, my brother's a tiler.

He just helped me retile my bathroom,

so I just did this.

- You got in order? - Yep.

- For sure? Okay. - Yep.

No.

- Okay. You go for wash. - I'll go for next row.

- Yeah, Jack, you're amazing. - What? Me?

I'm recently unemployed,

so maybe I need to be a painter or a tiler.

- A tiler? - Yeah.

My brother can teach you.

True.

Okay, let's go.

We got to get out.

They are running.

- Must be that guy. - Over here.

- Hello. Hello. - Hello.

- Hi. - Hello.

Hi.

- Thank you. Obrigado. - Thank you.

- Ode... - Ode porto wine house.

Ribeira.

Okay, we got to go there.

Let's go.

- Ribeira. This way, this way. - Let's go.

- Olá. - Thank you.

That's it. We got to go there. Okay.

Excuse me. Can you help me?

Where is this?

Porto wine house.

- Make a left. - Down to the water.

Thank you. Just follow me.

Okay.

Excuse me, can we ask you for help?

Ode porto wine house.

Down. Sharp right. Sharp left.

This is what we got.

We're about to do our last row of tiles.

I think the rocks are gonna go like this.

Yeah, I know.

Yeah, I think time for rocks, check, please.

Okay.

- Yes! Yes! - Nicely done.

- Wow. My god. Thank you. - There you go.

- Good luck. - Wow. It's our...

- It's our thing. - It's our mural.

"Race to the pit stop."

Teams must figure out

that they need to cross the luís I bridge

and find me on the other side of the douro river.

The first three teams to arrive here

will race to the finish line for one million dollars.

The last team will be eliminated.

- Okay. Later. - Yeah.

And we don't need to worry about them.

- No. - All right?

- Yeah. - Check.

- Sorry, guys. No good. - Okay.

It's something down here, something obvious.

Look at the picture.

- I think it's from that direction. - It was from that angle.

It's from that angle.

There is a walking bridge right there, car.

- Walk across? - Yeah.

Okay, I trust you.

It has to be the other side.

Okay, I trust you.

Wow, it's so beautiful.

Yeah, it's amazing.

- Come on, babe. - Let's go.

- There's a clue box. - Let's go.

"This is it. Earn your way to the final three.

"Complete a mosaic using classic Portuguese tiles

to receive a clue."

Okay, so I think it's our rocks.

Does that fit? That fits.

That fits.

Yeah, that-that fits.

Does it?

That looks like it fits.

That fits.

I think we should just get a check. Check.

Check.

That's good.

- Thank god. - So, put it on the wall.

All right, let's put this on the wall.

Let's put it on the wall. Thank you, thank you.

Last clue again.

Okay.

"This is it. Earn your way to the final three."

Jonathan and Ana are here.

- They are? - Yes.

I have never laid tiles before, but...

Can't be that difficult.

I mean, we're gonna get this done.

- We have practiced puzzles. - Practiced puzzles a lot.

I mean, this is really a crazy one.

Okay, there's a piece.

You're moving a little too fast

for me now, 'cause I have to also clean the thing.

No problem.

Can I help you in any way? Or just go slower?

You either go slower,

or you start mounting things on yourself, too.

Okay. No problem. I can do that.

Holden, I know we're doing a great job.

Yep. I agree.

Wow.

- There he is, there he is! - Where, where?

He's in red.

Wow!

Wow.

- So beautiful. - Encore. Bravo.

Welcome to porto, Portugal.

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

Carson and Jack. Hi.

They are team number one.

Yes.

And I do have some great news for you.

You are one of the three teams that will be racing

- to the finish line... - My word.

- For a million dollars. - Phil.

The other great news I have to tell you

is that you will be flying back to the United States

in comfort.

We're gonna upgrade you to business class.-!

- I've never flown business class. - Never flown business class.

Me either.

- We're just nerds, Phil. - Well...

- What do you mean we're going... - I mean,

nerds that have done extremely well.

I think exceeded some of the expectations

- of other teams. - Yeah.

- Exceeded our own expectations, honestly. - Definitely.

So proud of us, honestly.

- We made it -to the final three! - Final three!

We love to have fun.

It's the most important part of life, you know?

Yeah.

And so we wanted to bring that into the race.

And as game people,

the reason people keep coming back to games

is because it brings you joy.

And if that gets sucked out of it, what's the point?

I think it's a huge testament to just our ability

to understand each other, to respect each other,

no matter what happens.

Just be excited and feel lucky to be here.

Here we go.

We are ready. We are ready, Phil. Let's do it, Phil.

Come on.

We are one row away from the finals. Let's do this.

Come on.

Babe, these are not right.

You can't just go to water.

Does this go here, you think?

- I think it does. - No, no, hold on. Zip, please.

Quiet, please.

Check.

I'm freaking out.

No, sorry, guys.

It's not good.

- Sorry, no. - Okay.

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

- Wow. Masterpiece. - I know.

- You did good. Very good. - Picasso.

Thank you.

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

Check.

Yes, yes, it's the shadow.

Guys, you got it.

- I believe in you guys. - Cool. Thanks, bro.

Sorry, it's still, still incorrect.

It's got to be the sky.

Han, that's the bridge.

Do you think he's on the other side?

Yep. Let's go. Let's go.

Where are you, Phil?

I see him.

Step on the mat together.

I can't believe we did it.

Welcome to porto, Portugal.

- Congrats to you. - Thank you so much.

They are now one of the three teams

that will be racing to the finish line

I can't believe it.

For a million dollars.

I can't believe it.

- My god. - You're team number two.

All of that hard work and, like, the tears and the fighting

like, it actually amounted to something,

which is insane.

It's the culmination of hard work.

Han I cannot believe we are a top-three team.

We believe, like, at our best, we're a top-three team,

but, like, how can we get there?

And we worked so friggin' hard

to get to, like, where we are.

We have truly figured out

our racing strategy, our racing plan,

and we put it into action today.

There's no better time to peak then at the end.

And so, for the next leg,

is there room for us at number one?

I think there is.

Hell yeah, baby.

When you guys get it together, you're a powerful team.

Yeah, we are.

We are.

Okay, that's it.

That's it. Can we get a check, please?

- It's all correct. - Okay.

- You get them on the wall, okay? - Okay.

- Can we get a check? - Yes. Check.

- Okay, guys, you can put it on the wall. - Okay. Thank you.

Thank you, thank you.

We're, like, in a race for our lives, hon.

Keep going up faster.

The adrenaline's kicking in.

Josiah and Alyssa are still there,

so we know we could still be in it.

- Sorry, babe. - If there's any way

- you could do this faster. - Okay.

Faster.

Babe, just slap it up there.

Like, they're almost done.

Lord.

That is not good.
