The increasing fatigue is the biggest enemy of the four teams...

...on their way to Ushuaia, in the far south of Argentina.

But they're only halfway there.

The second half will be much more difficult.

The distances will be longer and the bus tickets will be much

more expensive.

The staggering budget will be a monster...

...that can only be measured with blood, sweat and tears.

Yes, this is Race Across the World.

I'm so happy to be able to share this with you.

I'm happy to be here with you.

It's really beautiful.

Last time we saw how the remaining four teams...

...covered a distance of 3,000 kilometres from Quito, in Ecuador...

...to the faraway Arequipa, in the south of Peru.

Here, team Ragas managed to turn a 10-hour delay into an

advantage...

...by making it to the checkpoint sign a bit too late.

I'm physically and emotionally exhausted.

Team Commander finished second...

...and was behind by more than an hour.

I'm very proud of ourselves, but especially of Frank...

...who planned and came up with such a tight plan.

The bronze was taken by none other than team Compru...

...who became third for the fourth time in a row.

Yes, guys, third.

We've been doing that the whole time.

I know.

After that, Hugo and Eva faced a 6-hour delay...

...by being the last to get in.

But what was worse was that Hugo did it on his last

legs.

I've been sick for an hour now.

I'm physically exhausted.

I can't walk anymore.

Oh, man, I'm exhausted.

I'm exhausted.

Oh, honey.

I'm exhausted.

Right after the finish, I took the teams to a nice hotel

at my expense...

...where they were allowed to join the first part of the trip...

...in order to be pressed on the facts with their noses again.

There you are, in the middle of South America, 6,000 kilometres

away.

But you're not even halfway there yet.

8,000 kilometres away, over there, in the south...

...is Ushuaia, in the faraway country of fire, waiting for you.

So far, it's been pretty simple.

The jobs were pretty consistent.

The routes were pretty doable.

It all went pretty well.

But a warning.

In the next stages, you'll notice...

...that the budget will dry up quickly.

Because it will be a lot more expensive.

And it will all be a lot more difficult.

Believe me.

Olga, Frank...

...I've never seen people with new knees...

...run so fast.

You want to win convincingly.

But is that really worth it?

Eva and Hugo, your drive is really admirable.

Your fanaticism is unparalleled.

But can this be kept up?

Dre, Howard...

You want to win by walking, of course.

But can you do it by running?

Your dead easy.

I've seen a few fanatical sprints.

And what I most hope for is that you'd rather win...

...than actually give up.

Sam and Bas, they do it so well together.

And Bas, it's pretty tough.

And yet you say you want to keep going until the bitter

end.

But who do you do it for, really?

For yourself?

Or for your son?

Anyway, the road to the end of the world...

...is still long and grueling.

And not every team will make it.

This will be a huge test, both mentally and physically...

...and financially.

I wish you all the best.

And I'll see you at the finish line.

After these exciting words, we'll move on to the order of the

race.

And there will be stage maps.

The teams will be divided into three stages, including routes and tracks.

Bas, Jan and Sam will go first.

Cool, cool, cool.

The fifth of a total of eight stages will go through three

countries.

The first will be Peru, on its way to Bolivia...

...where the journey will end in Salta, in the far north of

Argentina.

Overnight at a Bolivian family.

The salt flats, you mentioned that, right?

In Guadalajara, Animas.

This is wrong, because it starts with a terrible word.

Death Road Mountain Bikers.

We shouldn't ruin our lead.

We'll spend the night at a Bolivian family at the Titicaca Lake.

That's what you said, you wanted to see that.

Right?

The salt flats.

Okay, let's go outside.

I think this is a great combination.

Let's go.

Immediately after my speech, Hugo has gone back to his bed...

...to get out of there as often as possible.

He's dehydrated from the food poisoning and has prescribed pills and rest.

Which isn't very convenient during a race.

Hi, honey.

How is he?

I'm really, really fucked up.

It's literally five minutes.

I can't keep track of the time.

I try to sleep, but then I wake up and I'm like,

shit.

That's intense.

It's a bloody nightmare.

What a nightmare.

Shouldn't we just turn off your lights?

Turn off your lights, roll in the toilet and leave tomorrow morning?

We're going to walk backwards, honey.

We're already behind you.

Let's take the middle road.

I'll get a few more hours, you too, so you can get

some sleep.

Let's hope a miracle happens and we get there early.

That's good, then we'll have the first bus out of here.

At half past four, four thirty.

Half past four.

We'll make it.

Fuck it.

Money is a thing, because those countries are only getting more expensive.

So we have to go back to square one.

We're going to spend money on everything again.

It's going to be super uncomfortable and we're going to travel a

lot more than we thought.

I'm going to turn on the toilet service.

Okay, take care, honey.

Kiss.

Sleep well.

Take it easy.

If anything happens, call me.

I'm going to sleep.

We're going again, right?

Bastiaan and Sem leave the free luxury as the new leaders.

Linnea Recta goes to the bus station, where her son Sem not

only buys bus tickets...

...but also causes some damage to the competition's budget.

There's another team of two Dutch people.

A woman and a man.

When they want to buy a ticket, please don't give them a

discount.

Okay?

Thank you very much.

I think it's pretty stupid.

I would never do that.

It's a game and we have to win.

If there's one team that's still in the money, it's Olga and

Frank.

We could be in the money a bit better.

So if we make it a bit smaller, like this, I'm going

to do it.

You shouldn't work against people.

It's a game, it's a race.

I told you, I don't work against people.

It's about five souls.

No, you shouldn't.

I don't like that.

You're too nice for this race.

No, you have to win, but you don't have to stab me

in the back.

Stab you in the back?

No, I don't like that.

The weirdos, thanks to their father Bas, have been at least economical

with their budget.

Something has to happen, but this...

We're going to win on our own.

One time, but never again.

Sorry, Olga and Frank.

The devil took over.

A little devil on my shoulder.

I'm the father, so I have to correct it.

I don't often correct my son, just a little bit every now

and then.

A little touch-up, a little twist here and there.

Olga and Frank have also started and hope to get the night

bus on time.

Of course, Frank, as the team planner, takes the lead.

And he's very determined about that.

The Desayuno, if that's still the case...

...they might also have comfortable seats elsewhere.

Yes.

Yes, but I'm going...

Yes.

Yes, or you won't get out of here.

You don't have to be mad at me.

No, I'm just saying.

I'm just saying.

Look, there's nothing going on here.

Frank always knows exactly what he wants, and he's got it all

in his head.

So he wants to figure it out to the last detail.

And I'm trying to opt for things, but you can't hear it

very well here.

It's all blurred and it's in Spanish, so...

But Frank has figured it out now, so it's going to be

fine.

It's going to be tough, isn't it?

Yes, very tough, isn't it?

I'm not mad at you.

No, I know.

For safety's sake, there's a timetable at every location in the evening...

...where the teams have to stop travelling or get on a night

bus.

And the latter is also what Hout and Dree manage to do

with their recovery.

On their way to Bolivia.

After an extra night of five-star rest, Hugo and Eva have

also left...

...with a delay that has increased to twelve hours.

It's a long way to Bolivia, but unfortunately for them, they get

on a bus...

...that you don't want your worst enemy to get on.

Oh, there's someone who's been licked all over.

What happened here?

Oh, it stinks too.

Oh my God, Hugo.

It's unsteady, I think.

It's never normal.

God, I forgot my gloves.

I'm going to rain.

Sorry, I really can't do this.

But unfortunately, once they leave, things get worse.

After an hour or four, the bus will be in the middle

of nowhere...

...and you'll always see it stop.

What's going on here?

What's going on?

I think we've got a problem.

Unbelievable.

Look, there's a loose wire there.

This is tied together.

There are still pieces of wire here.

It's a real drama.

It's really dramatic, because people don't have reception on their phones.

So we can't call anyone to say we're standing still.

We're really stranded in the middle of nowhere, that's what it is.

But really.

I'm not very happy about this.

I think it's pretty bad.

You just hope that when you book a bus, it arrives at

your destination.

We're lagging behind, of course.

It's only going up like this.

The weird thing is, this bus would arrive at the border on

time.

We could even catch it.

The border post was still open.

We arrived at half past one.

We've been standing here for half an hour.

It's really bad.

But we have to do something.

We have to get our bags out of that thing and just

hitchhike.

So Hugo and Eva force themselves to travel the cheapest way possible.

Something that Houd & Dre don't dare to do, and don't have

to do...

...because their trip to Salta is coming to an abrupt end.

It's quite nice here, isn't it?

It's nice, but not more.

We're a bit tired, and we're slowly getting used to the altitude.

So we thought, why don't we just hitchhike to La Paz?

Why don't we just stay here for now?

We'll just chill.

And then we'll go to La Paz tomorrow morning and do our

job.

Are we in a hurry to La Paz?

No, we're not in a hurry.

We'll just go to La Paz on the spot.

In a moment, Olga and Frank remember.

Six years ago, we were on our way back from Bolivia to

Lima.

We had a gunfight, and they came running at us with a

gun.

Is the Eilelucht having a positive effect on Bastiaan Raghav?

Hola.

He's happy.

And is Dre Urheim even happy that he's still here?

I got sick before the lockdown.

I thought, great, maybe I'll die.

It's nice to know how it went.

Welcome back to Race Across the World.

Four teams are on their way from Arequipa in Peru to the

Argentine Salta.

They're going straight through the great Bolivia.

On their way to their chosen outing on the banks of the

Titicaca Lake...

Bas and Sam get on a minibus full of Bolivians.

Bastiaan usually finds it awkward to wear a hat.

But this time, he's made some friends.

Hola.

Yippee-dee-poopie.

We get on a bus, and all of a sudden, there are

all these nice people.

It's really cool.

Buenos días.

I'm really happy.

We had a great bus connection.

We suddenly went to chaka-chaka, which was kind of funny.

And now I'm on the bus again with all these Peruvian people.

I think they're so beautiful, with beautiful dark hair and hats on

their heads.

You always see that in the movies, but it really is like

this.

Fresh air.

It's time to go to the border with Bolivia.

The team leader has to cross the border to go to the

border with Bolivia.

With my warning about the expensive bus tickets in their back...

Olga and Frank go on a hunt for something that's cheap.

Dos.

Taxi to the border.

Collectivo.

Collectivo, amigo.

Cinco soles.

Cinco.

That's five.

Yes.

That's only two soles, so we're going with the Collectivo.

How much do you save?

Three soles.

75 cents.

Martijn warned us that it's going to be a lot more expensive

in Argentina.

And that someone with a bit of money might be able to

save it.

So we're going to save money.

If possible, Collectivo is always cheaper than a taxi.

So we'll go with the Collectivo.

Collectivo?

One fifty.

One fifty.

I think that's good too.

Dos tres soles.

Tres soles, dos.

Okay.

If we pay with tres soles, we'll know for sure it's good.

Do you have any more?

Two or...

Dos per soles.

Yes, gracias.

At that moment, Hugo and Eva are still hitchhiking in a piece

of no man's land...

on their way to the border with Bolivia.

The two are clearly in bad weather, with a weakened Hugo and

bad luck on the way.

This journey is of course peaks and downs.

You always have something that's disappointing, but then you have a solution.

And then you go for it.

But this is the first time in a month that we're really

powerless.

Because we're going home.

I can see ourselves standing there.

I'm not going to let it get to me right away, but

it's going to be a miracle.

Go, go, go, Eva.

But luckily, Eva has already hitchhiked for an hour.

Oh yes, traveling like we're not used to anymore.

It's still possible, with a little bit of luck.

And Eva...

We have to get out of here.

And we're standing here for hours.

The Komproe team decided not to hurry to get to Bolivia...

because they were worried about the rising altitudes, which are a problem

for Howard.

If the two of them take a break in a hotel, the

corona story will take a turn for the worse.

That was pretty serious.

You do notice that you're at four kilometers above sea level.

I always felt like I was out of breath, even though I

wasn't doing anything.

You know what it reminds me of?

When I had corona.

My oxygen level was also...

Low.

It was very low, and I felt the same.

I couldn't get up the stairs.

I just can't remember a lot of the times I was sick.

And then I stopped calling my parents, my child.

I had a diary, but I was like patient zero in March

2020.

I got sick before the lockdown.

And I thought, I'll write it down, because maybe I'll die.

It's nice to know how it went.

But at some point it just stopped.

And I just couldn't think anymore.

I can't remember those days.

They're gone.

How long did you revalidate?

Almost two years, man.

Almost two years.

Until I really felt okay again.

I see these trips as a kind of crowning of the fact

that...

I got back on my feet again.

And I didn't really...

At some point I didn't have the confidence to get back to

my old level.

Bas and Sam travel in very different atmospheres.

They've arrived at a place where they'll spend the night with a

Bolivian family.

On this trip, you're constantly switching from a very annoying circumstance...

to something really fun.

And that's the big advantage of travelling in public transport in these

countries.

You have a big tour operator, a big bus, so it's very

convenient.

You never come into contact with people like that.

They're on a market with a palm tree and you have to

pay for it.

Then it's that, it's not real, it's for tourists.

And this is just the real deal.

I thought it was great.

I thought it was a fantastic start to this stage.

Olga and Frank leave Puno behind.

The last big city in Peru to cross the border with Bolivia.

This part of the world is a familiar terrain to them, but

with a bad memory.

Six years ago we were on our way back from Bolivia to

Lima.

And then we stopped in Puno.

We witnessed a armed robbery.

Three men suddenly came out of the woods in a remote area...

and they came running towards us with a gun.

You think, what's this?

And then you hear, don't resist, just cooperate.

But then you think, am I going to call the police or

just let it happen?

What was special this time was that...

Last time we were a bit suspicious, but I didn't feel that

at all this time.

Not a single time.

People are so helpful.

And because we travel this way, you get even more in touch

with people.

And you see how happy they are and how helpful they are.

And that whole feeling, as far as I'm concerned...

It's a long way, isn't it?

Yes, it is.

On their way to Bolivia, Hugo and Eva are stopped by a

friendly driver...

at a place where they can easily switch to another bus.

Let's just get on with it now.

You've been running all this time.

Thank you very much.

Is this the only place this bus goes to?

No, not at all.

I'm so glad I'm here.

Where is this bus going?

It's going to Puno.

That's really bad.

Puno, honey.

That's double the cost, isn't it?

Well, it's double the cost.

Our bus would go on to where we have to go, and

Puno is in between.

Look, we would go this way now.

It's really...

We're not even halfway through what we would do with the other

bus.

And we're already running behind it.

It's really bad, but we can't do anything else, honey.

We're going in the right direction.

It's not going to Cusco or anything.

We're going to the border of Bolivia.

That's all we can do.

Howard and Dre are in Copacabana...

at the world-famous Titicaca Sea, which is divided by Peru and

Bolivia.

Because the trip for Howard is mainly a culinary discovery...

they're on their way to a very special restaurant experience.

A floating restaurant.

That's traditional, right?

Traditional shit.

People built it all by hand.

It's all floating agrega.

The boat is docking.

We're getting off.

It's all pieces that are attached to each other.

Floated reeds.

Very cool.

They even built a lookout tower.

There's a lookout tower there.

All floating.

And in the middle is a kind of place where the net

hangs.

A tray?

We're going to sit down and order a trout.

That's not how it works.

You suddenly get a net in your hand.

But there are also edges, very thin ones.

I suddenly see you balancing with the net.

And I scoop out four or five of those fish.

They're fried.

Rice, salad, fries.

Just a complete meal.

It's really delicious.

Thank you, sir.

You're welcome.

Olga and Frank have also crossed the border with Bolivia.

They've arrived at a crossing that has to be made with two

ferries.

One for the bus and one for themselves.

And Olga doesn't like that.

Remember which bus it is.

Yes.

That's for the bus.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Well, check.

Another means of transport, Frank.

Yes, that's right.

Nice, isn't it?

Look, there goes our bus.

I hope it'll be full soon, otherwise the bus will be gone

and we'll have to come.

If the bus driver doesn't mind that we're in the other boat.

I can already see our bus leaving for the other side.

And this boat is still empty, so if we have to wait

until it's full and we go to the other side...

then we might miss the bus.

And we do have our backpacks.

You don't have to film that.

Or photograph it, or whatever.

Yes, there goes our bus.

Stay with us for a while.

At least take a picture.

I already have a picture.

It's a shame it's so far away.

We almost miss it.

You're not going to make it, Frank.

We'll lose our backpacks.

Otherwise you'll have to wait for us all the time.

You should have told us we had to hurry.

I don't see this one leaving in 1, 2, 3.

It'll be fine.

Is it already on the other side?

The bus is almost there.

Oh, oh.

I saw it coming.

Do you see the bus?

It just left.

It just left.

Watch out, you.

Oh, there.

Frank told me to look inside.

Are you coming?

Yes.

Yes, now the bus is going to leave.

Now it's leaving.

Well, we made it.

You see that?

Panicking.

Who's panicking here?

Parados.

Perfecto.

Llegamos.

Come on.

We'll make it in 4 soles.

Wait.

It's great.

Good, man.

Team Raghas covers the last kilometers and arrives at the village...

where they will spend the night with a Bolivian family.

The closer they get, the more Bastiaan realizes...

that this is not exactly what he booked.

Hola.

We arrived here.

And we saw very small houses everywhere.

It's very different from all-inclusive.

You could say that.

I thought it would be nice to sleep with a family.

Maybe we should sleep on the ground, on a mat.

Maybe that's what they do here.

Then I got a little Spanish.

Oh, you had that too?

Yes.

This must be it.

It's a very nice house.

We got closer.

It was a very nice, white-striped house.

And then I thought, yes.

Let's have some fun with that.

Hola, señor.

Me llamo Sam.

Bienvenido a Santiago de Cola.

¿Cómo está?

Buenas tardes.

Pase por este lado.

Pase, por favor.

Gracias.

He showed us where we could sleep.

It's a kind of bed-and-breakfast-like space.

Great.

Totally happy.

Soon, Bastiaan is fed up with the minibuses.

Taxi is much more chill.

Taxi!

Stijgen, Howard and Dre are proud of themselves.

All good?

Very good.

And the salt flats of Oyuni provide a dizzying orgasm.

I'm so glad I got to do this with you.

It's fantastic.

Really beautiful.

See you soon.

Welcome back to Race Across the World.

Four teams are on their way to the end of the world,

in Ushuaia.

In other words, the southernmost point of Argentina.

Bastiaan and Sam are plunged into Bolivian life and find the peace

that Bas was looking for.

I thought it was great.

I think it's the best activity ever.

I'm crazy about forks.

Look, look, look.

Oh, look at that.

Sam, here's a fork.

I really like this.

I often think touristy things are stupid.

I think the human side is very interesting.

How do they live together?

How do they rummage around?

I always like that.

In the Netherlands, we are so over-organized.

You're fed, you're taken care of.

It's horrible.

I really like this.

It's heavenly.

Let's go.

I love it.

Close your eyes and stand still.

Just listen to the wind and the birds and the water.

I love it.

It's really great.

This is the ultimate place.

And if you just sit there by the water and you sit

still and you hear the sea, it's always very quiet.

And then you sit on that stone and enjoy it.

Thank you.

If the kids were out of the house, I could live like

this for a few years.

I've done a lot of things.

I've seen a lot of things.

And I'm looking forward to the things that are going on right

now.

Salute to Walter and Bolivia.

Okay, gracias.

Salute.

It's so beautiful here.

Howard and Dree are also getting ready for quality time.

They've chosen the horse as their outing.

And they're getting ready to steal the show as gauchos in the

Bolivian mountains.

Everything okay?

Very good.

He's going to walk by himself.

This is it, right?

We're riding a horse now, right?

Yes, we're riding a horse now.

Okay, chill.

Is this horse keeping more distance from you, or is this all

chill?

You have to make it smaller.

You have to pull the reins back a little.

Go a little slower.

And then you have to make the S-H sound.

It's still working.

It's listening very well.

I can put it to the left, to the right.

He doesn't have to go faster, because he wants to go faster

himself.

So I'm just slowing it down a little bit.

And then the area we end up in, at some point there's

a path.

And then we're in the middle of the mountains.

But it's just like a movie.

It's more beautiful than a movie.

And we walk around canyons, around rocks, cliffs.

Every corner you make is just another movie landscape.

Those colors and those clouds are impressive.

Shadow play.

It's all really complete.

Very cool.

Thank you.

And I thought to myself, if we take those horses with us,

maybe in Ushuaia, that final sprint.

The last leg.

The horse.

Good idea.

Thank you very much for the hospitality.

Look, mother.

Thank you very much.

Thank you.

See you later.

Team Ragas is on the move again and wants to make meters.

But because they've deviated from the main route, it's a bit of

a hassle to get back on track.

Direction La Paz.

Sir, stop it.

Let's see how that boss does it.

He stands and he does this.

And then...

Damn.

Then they stop.

That's it.

Shake, baby, shake.

Yes, this is it.

Look at that.

Great.

Do you think this will fit?

Hola, buenas.

A La Paz.

Perfecto.

Buenos dias.

Hola.

It was very tight.

I had pain in my knees.

Then my left upper hip started to hurt.

We sometimes need minibuses to get somewhere.

But minibuses are not called for nothing.

And I'm pretty big, so I'd rather not.

Olga and Frank are also on their way to their cabin on

the famous salt flats of Oyuni.

That's the absolute highlight of a visit to Bolivia.

They can't wait to be there.

In the distance you see it getting a bit white when you

arrive.

On the surface.

And then you drive up that surface.

And then you see what a huge white surface it is.

Wow.

Look at that.

Yes, this is a beautiful ride.

The car is already so nice and soft.

And the flats are breathtaking.

Big, white, beautiful.

And also the structure you see in the salt flats is just

a very beautiful natural phenomenon.

After a painful and exhausting ride in the minibus Bas and Sam

arrive in La Paz.

And La Paz seems to have recovered from all the positive influences.

Taxi.

Wait, wait, wait.

Okay, the terminal is this one.

Terminal de la Alto.

And first we have to...

They said you can also take a minibus.

It's a lot cheaper.

I haven't been in a bus for two and a half hours.

I think it's okay.

The prices with the taxis are okay.

Clear.

Of course, a taxi is always much more expensive.

That's the same story all over the world.

Otherwise those minibuses couldn't exist.

The prices of taxis and minibuses are not that much.

So for that structure in the city center I'm not going to

be in a bus with 80 people.

Taxi is much more chill.

So some things I think, I've been there, done that.

I just don't feel like it anymore.

Sam doesn't.

Hello, good afternoon, sir.

But when I don't feel like it anymore and I look at

Sam and Sam says, yes, dad, but we also have to continue.

Then I think, baby, I'm never going to give up.

And especially not if you don't want to.

And I'm mumbling something and stuff.

That's also a bit of my way of communicating.

I'm glad we're in a taxi with the window open.

That's very nice.

This trip, I'm doing it for Sam and me together.

For our relationship, that's what I'm doing it for.

Olga and Frank's O'Uni experience is not over yet.

These two are bloody fanatics.

But now that I've woken them up, they know again what it

really is all about.

Well, a real gentleman should write down the seats.

Yes, I was thinking about that, but you always do that yourself.

So I'm not going to do that now either.

No, that's true.

Cheers, honey.

Cheers.

Enjoy your meal.

Enjoy your meal.

When I describe our love, then that's just a self-evident commitment

to each other.

Since I've been with Frank, I've become completely myself.

Because Frank leaves me completely in my own world and has helped

me develop into who I am now.

Experiencing these kinds of things.

Yes, that's it.

Yes, that's it too.

And it's unforgettable.

Well, beautiful, isn't it?

Yes.

Yes, that realization, that we are very privileged to be able to

experience all this.

I'm so glad I was able to share this with you.

I'm so glad I was able to share this with you.

I'm so glad I was able to share this with you.

I still have a lot of those beautiful trips to make with

you.

Bastiaan is allowed to be a luxurious pussy who prefers to spend

some extra.

It doesn't take away from the fact that he also understands that

there has to be additional financial support.

And so the two sign up at a chocolate factory on their

route to Salta.

And that's in the town of Sucre.

You don't make it up.

Thank you.

Bye.

This is really a job for you, isn't it?

This is really moniker work.

She expects us to be able to do 50 in an hour.

Fifty?

Yes.

It's a bit like that bus ride.

You just have to adjust it to zero.

Oh, oh.

No, uh...

Mamma mia, it's not even a show ride.

They do keep the wind under control.

Oh, Jesus.

Oh, guys, what a drama.

I just couldn't handle it.

I was ashamed to death.

I thought we'd never end up in a box with these chocolates.

Never.

Mrs. Sem, professional butcher.

I never take gifts.

I always ask my sisters to do that.

Or another woman around me, because I think they prefer that.

Or a man.

I can do it too.

It has nothing to do with man or woman.

But I think women are good at that.

Secure.

But you're a special case.

Sebastian, the job is done.

Okay.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Hugo and Eva have already made a breakthrough and reach the border

with Argentina.

On the day that Eva saw the light of day 36 years

ago.

Let's go.

Argentina.

It feels good.

Argentina is the sun.

I've never been to two countries.

I love it.

This is the only one I won't forget.

No, this is too crazy.

A bus to Salta.

At night.

Yes?

Euro.

That's 55.

Times 30 equals this amount.

7.62. 6000.

That's nothing.

Is it possible?

No, no, no.

It's her birthday.

It's my birthday.

Really?

Yes.

Yes.

Don't be too happy.

Eva, it's my birthday.

It's my birthday, it's my birthday.

It just won't pass.

And if Eva can also arrange that she can call her friend

in the Netherlands, the party is complete.

Congratulations, honey.

Thank you, honey.

What a surprise, right?

Yes, how nice.

I didn't mind at all that I couldn't see you.

It's my birthday.

I want a present.

But what is it?

It's always so nice to have Maarten on the phone.

And now I had that again.

It's nice to know that you exist.

It's really nice.

Happy birthday present.

What a good day today.

Nice day.

Lovely.

In a moment there will be a strange surprise.

Why did we actually believe that?

I don't know.

It just happened.

The checkpoint will have to be puzzled.

First we won't hear point blank where we have to report.

But a cryptic description.

Go to the place where you receive a blessing from Salta's most

famous saint.

And that is quite complicated.

I don't know.

What a drama.

Race continues.

See you soon.

Welcome back to Race Across the World.

Where four teams in the fifth stage from Peru, straight through Bolivia,

are on their way to Salta.

In Argentina.

Hugo and Eva have just crossed the border with Argentina.

And are killing some time.

If they are suddenly robbed from behind.

Always eat.

Always eat.

Oh my God.

How are you?

I'm fine.

How are you?

Yesterday I was really normal.

How are you?

I'm fine.

Olga and Frank.

We'll have to sit in a bus for hours.

You race against them.

Then you sit next to each other in a bus.

And you race for hours, but we won't do anything.

That's weird.

Have you seen anyone else?

No.

And the dwarf?

He worked too hard.

We worked really hard.

In the middle of a restaurant?

We ran our legs under our seatbelts.

But it was worth it.

We keep going.

Why did we lie about that?

I don't know.

It just happened.

You don't want to give up your card.

But you also want to have fun.

I don't know.

It just happens.

So, tomorrow.

On to Salta.

On to Salta.

See you guys.

Bye.

Bye.

Yes girl.

I didn't see this coming.

We thought we were really behind.

And now it turns out that we crossed the border together.

From Argentina.

Reaching the final destination was a fairly simple exercise.

Each team gets a push-message to a GPS tracker.

After which reaching the final destination was a piece of cake.

Until now.

Because now that it's really getting exciting, it's time to add a

little something.

By means of a cryptic description.

Which the teams will have to solve first.

Before they even know where the final destination is.

Of course that doesn't make it easier.

But it's more fun.

Salta.

Colonial provincial capital from the 16th century.

And the place where our four teams all arrive in the early

morning.

With intermediate times that are more or less negligible.

Immediately upon arrival, each team receives the same message.

On their GPS tracker.

Sam, open up.

Your father wants to get out.

Yes, thank you.

First we don't get a point blank to hear where we have

to report.

But a cryptic description.

Go to the place where you receive a blessing.

From Salta's most famous saint.

Salta's most famous saint.

Receive a blessing.

Where do you receive it?

In a church.

It's about the most famous religious person in Salta.

We ask different people and they all say the Virgin.

And there is a cathedral of the Virgin.

The cathedral.

Cathedral.

Saint of Salta?

They really think it's a cathedral, dad.

Please, sir.

What is Saint of Salta?

Yes, those are words we don't know in Spanish.

We have practiced a bit of Spanish, but these words have not

yet appeared in our vocabulary.

Very famous saint of Salta.

They won't be in here, will they?

So we go to that cathedral.

You run in and you end up in the middle of a

church service.

So we know it's not here anyway.

I also saw a religious building back there.

Maybe we can go there.

Let's have a look.

The only cathedral?

Are there no other cathedrals?

There is another one.

Basilica of Saint Francis.

Another one, please.

They're not here either.

No, no, no.

Where is the place where you can receive the blessing?

The place where you can receive the blessing?

It turns out that the Virgin also has its own thing on

top of a mountain.

On the mountain just outside Salta, blessings are given to everyone who

makes the climb.

But it is not the place where the checkpoint sign is.

If this is not good, we don't know where to go.

And then we have to go back.

Yes, that would be a bit dramatic.

And then we are the last to enter.

Could be.

I see a taxi driving.

I look behind.

Who is there?

It will be Drake.

Suddenly another taxi stops.

And we see two vikings storming up.

To Ragasjes.

Hello.

Let them run.

We're not going to run.

We just don't do that.

I'm not going to run after them.

They can do it themselves.

So we start with what we think.

A short walk.

If not another saint had driven.

If not a stranger had driven.

We would have been up for a long time.

But that short walk.

It becomes a kind of guideway.

Yes, it is a gigantic climb.

Well done, dad.

Well done.

And you too.

We'll get there.

We forget this feeling again.

Come on.

I just saw Olcay and Frank.

They are now stepping where we just walked.

At those taxis.

They are walking there now.

But...

It can also be on top of that mountain.

No.

It's five minutes from here.

You're teasing me again.

Team Commander, just like Team Knowledge.

Arrived a little later in the city.

And just like the rest.

First referred to the cathedral in the center.

This is it, I think.

It was nice to photograph.

They are earlier.

They are earlier.

Here they are walking.

Olcay and Frank are walking in the park.

Are you following us?

Come on.

Let's fuck them up.

Let's fuck them up.

Who speaks English?

Where you can receive the blessings of the saint.

It can be in the church.

At one point we were at the basilica.

And then a woman came out.

And she was very convincing.

The blessings are distributed on Saturday.

Also on the mountain.

Taxi, taxi, taxi.

And look, is there a taxi?

That's a taxi.

What actually goes wrong with every team.

Is that the focus is on the blessing.

The question of who the saint is, is much more important.

Because that is by Christian definition.

Someone who no longer lives.

So it can't be someone who gives out blessings every Saturday.

That seems logical to me.

Taxi, taxi, taxi.

Taxi, taxi, taxi.

Taxi, please.

Are you okay, dad?

Just a little bit, dad.

Just a little bit.

Yes, do you see something?

No.

It doesn't look good.

The trust really flows out of all sides of me.

But I'm stubborn.

And I'll keep going.

Fulfilling.

Dear Lord.

Jesus.

Dear Lord.

I'm up there.

I see a chapel.

I see all the corners where you can pray.

I think, not now.

But I don't see a sign.

What a drama.

There's nothing here.

It's up there, honey.

We climb up there.

We know we're close to the railway tracks.

And above we see the railway tracks.

Search.

Search.

With our hands in our hair.

It's nothing.

It's not here.

Okay.

And it turns out we're not in the right place at all.

Okay.

Well, that's quite a bummer.

Boy, oh boy.

I was really disappointed.

That you climb up there so dedicatedly.

It turns out we have to have another saint.

Casero.

And Santa Fe.

The convent of San Bernardo.

Now we have to go down that mountain.

Yes.

And while we're quietly and cheerfully climbing down there.

Suddenly a taxi drives up.

But really with an emergency.

And I recognize Hugo and Eva in it.

Oh, I see Haunted Way.

No way.

No.

Then we're in the right place.

Then we're in the right place.

And instead of stopping to check what's going on.

We could have said.

It's not going to be like that.

They keep driving.

Or they're in the wrong place and they're walking back.

I don't think so, because they look pretty tense.

That's true.

I don't see Frank.

Hurry up.

Frank, come on.

Frank, come on.

Go, go, go.

I'll run.

Go ahead.

Thank you.

God damn it.

Thank you.

No, I'm not going to do it.

Don't go.

Let them go.

I'm going to be dizzy.

No, let them go.

Go ahead, guys.

Run.

I'm not pulling it.

I'm not pulling it.

No, Frank.

Hugo, behind you.

Come on.

Honey, I'm almost out of breath.

Then I noticed that Eva was having even more trouble than me.

And then I got wings again.

Adrenaline started working in my body.

And then it got better all of a sudden.

It's kind of like that old top athlete.

He feels like he's having a harder time.

Then I can get past it.

That's a head start.

Come on, Frank.

If it's not here, I'm really angry.

We haven't seen them come back yet.

Come on, Frank.

We climbed this whole mountain.

First by taxi and then by foot.

But there's nothing here.

We have to go to another place.

Let's take a look there.

And then we'll continue.

We're going to start all over again.

I'm just sad that we're going up again for nothing.

We're not in a good position again.

All that effort for nothing again.

We've been to two places.

We still don't know where to go.

No.

No, it's...

Nobody knows.

And then the emotions come up.

Then you think, let it go.

I almost wanted to give up.

Come on, I have a plan.

You want to show the positive side.

And you'd rather hide that negative emotion.

You'd rather not show it.

The good solution of the challenge is San Bernardo.

He was an abbot of the local monastery centuries ago.

He's been to many places.

Like a cable car and a hill in the middle of the

city where his statue stands while he blesses the city.

Visible from all sides and extremely majestic and holy.

What a shitty day.

Jesus, Mina.

But very soon the ragas have a bite.

When a helpful Saltanese calls his father, who knows the city well

and even more handy, he also speaks English.

We are looking for a statue.

Sim, come with me, honey.

In Salta.

Above the city.

Ah, the San Bernardo statue.

It's in the top of the hill.

Okay, muchas gracias.

Thanks, man, appreciate it.

Hasta luego, eh.

Howard and Dre also looked for a helpline where a passerby calls

with someone who understands the question and also sends them in the

right direction.

So, we would like to go to the statue of San Bernardo.

It's the same, any of the two.

The same?

Yes, because if you add up from here to the cable car,

plus the cable car, it will be the same trip as from

here to the San Bernardo hill.

It's the same place.

Shall we go up with the taxi?

I think it's cool to go up with the cable car.

Yes, but how should the time come later?

Okay, let's go up with the taxi.

Yes.

There is a cable car going up.

Esta...

What's the name of that cable car?

Tele...

Tele...

Tele...

Tele...

Tele...

Tele...

That's not called telegraphic, is it?

Yes.

Teleferico.

Esta un...

A montaña?

A montaña de...

Ah, te quería encerro.

Sí!

Muy rápido.

Muy rápido.

Telegráfico.

Teleferico.

Sí, ahora.

Teleferico.

Teleferico.

Oh, mijn god.

That's a long queue.

Yes, you're not going in.

You know what a queue is, right?

Yes.

You have to ask.

Yes, you can also ask.

A little bit with the window open.

Then you might get a warning.

Did you pay?

Yes.

Very neatly paid.

Es posible...

You can here.

Sí?

Muchas gracias.

Normally I'm not in the mood to rush, but we're in a

race.

It's about a place.

We didn't know where we would end up, but this was the

chance to do it once.

Can we go first?

Pasamos en grupo.

Muchas gracias.

Muchas gracias.

Ja, kom maar.

Hola.

Hola, buenas.

Hola, señor.

Por favor.

What?

Tienes que hacer la fila para comprar el ticket.

Sí?

Comprar el ticket aquí?

Claro.

Por favor, sí.

Double dinero.

Double dinero.

Sí?

We need to go.

Un poco más dinero.

Por favor.

Tienes que hacer la fila.

Sí?

Okay.

If we ask the people if it's okay.

Un momento.

Everybody, listen up.

Is it okay if we go first?

Sí?

No?

Sí?

Muchas gracias.

See, everybody agrees.

Let's go.

Hola.

Ja, brutaal hebben we de halve wereld.

We moeten iets proberen, toch?

Ik ga niet in die rij staan, daar hebben we geen tijd

voor.

Para comprar el ticket.

Esa sería la fila.

We weten natuurlijk al aan wat we bedoelden.

We moeten in die rij staan, maar we proberen voor te dringen.

Dat is dit keer niet gelukt.

Dus we gaan in de rij staan.

Een uurtje wachten.

No.

No.

Allá.

No.

En la fila?

Pak.

Hij staat echt met z'n hand, met de zegering.

Dus ik denk dat we op het goeie plekje zijn.

Telgend langzame kabelbaan.

Maar je kan wel genieten van het uitzicht.

Okay.

Je kan ook met de auto naar boven.

Dan kan je ook met de auto naar boven.

Nou, dat zie je.

Ja, maar ik denk niet dat dat voor iedereen...

Nou.

Ja.

Natuurlijk, het zou ook met de auto kunnen.

Oei, ja.

Nou.

Parbleu.

Dat kan inderdaad.

En het is ook nog eens een stuk sneller.

Maar je zou dan toch zeggen dat...

Dat het hier ergens zou zijn, toch?

Kijk, hier is het beeld.

Zie je?

We zien inderdaad het beeld van een heilige met een kruis...

die over de stad heen kijkt.

Kijk hem hier naar de stad kijken.

Kijk hem kijken, kijk hem.

Dree.

Ja.

En daar staat verdomme die ezel.

Nou, mij benieuwen.

Daar is het heilige binnen.

Ja, het is hier.

Wat?

Het is hier.

Hier is een kruis, Frank.

Hier is een kruis.

Ja.

Nou, ik gok het toch.

Misschien wel het derde.

We zijn steady drie, vriend.

Steady drie, dat is ons ding.

Kijk jij van die kant, kijk ik van hier.

Ja?

Let's go.

We zijn tweede!

Oei.

Heerlijk.

En meteen die stress van die hele bergwandeling...

die valt meteen van je af.

Want je weet, tweede positie betekent wel...

dat we iets eerder weg mogen...

maar dat we ook eerder keuze hebben...

bij de uitjes en de baantjes van de volgende leg.

Ja, en dat kan heel relaxed zijn.

Jongen, jongen, jongen, jongen.

Sweat across the world.

Leuk hoor.

Kijk eens, jongeman.

Heb je eerlijk verdiend.

Hoe doe je dat allemaal voor mij?

Yes.

Oké.

Derde.

Wow, oké.

Wat een heerlijke al die climaxen.

Heerlijk.

Nou, jongens.

Wat fantastisch goed.

Haha.

Ah, jongens.

We zijn het eerste.

We zijn het eerste.

Jee.

Net als vorige week.

Jee.

Motiverend.

Heel, heel erg motiverend.

En we doorgaan, hè.

En het doorzetten.

Het was het punt van de heilige...

Sin Bernardus.

Nou heet mijn vader Bernardus.

Nou heet jij Bernardus.

Dus het is...

Het had zo moeten zijn.

De heilige Bernardus.

Ja, de aanhouder wint, hè.

Zeggen ze dan.

Nou, we rukken.

Zo, daar gaat het worden.

Ik denk dat alleen onze...

Haren erop staan.

Hé, gefeliciteerd.

Toch nog derde.

Wow.

Een uur eerder.

Een uur eerder, hè.

Zal het daar wel zijn, toch?

Ja, gewoon daarheen.

Naar die soppel.

Ik zie hem.

Ja?

Ja.

O, daar is hij.

O, ja.

Super.

Wel een mooi uitzicht.

Ben ik benieuwd.

Echt een mooi uitzicht.

Tada.

Ja, vierde.

Lekker waar.

Ik ben toch wel een beetje teleurgesteld, hoor.

Het is gewoon een beetje zuur...

dat je de hele stad door aan het racen bent...

en dat het eigenlijk gewoon een beetje voor niks was.

Zo voelt het een beetje.

Toch?

Ja, die berg heeft me gewoon genekt.

Elf.

Achttien.

Achttien.

Eva, Hugo.

Klaar.

Huppakee.

Hatseflats.

We mogen nog een weekje.

Hatsé.

Het is wel mooi.

Ik vind de kleuren heel tof.

Helemaal prachtig.

Echt wel cool.

Afdouchen.

Afdouchen.

Volgende keer in Race Across the World...

zijn Howard en Dree in de zevende hemel.

Het voelde niet goed.

Het voelde niet te gewoon.

Zien Olga en Frank het even niet meer zitten.

Het gaat niet meer lukken.

We hebben het onszelf niet makkelijk gemaakt.

Begaat team Raga als een vergissing.

Niet heel effectief, hè?

Nee.

En eindigt de etappe...

in chaotische Braziliaanse toestanden.

De wegen staan in de fik.

Je kan niet zoveel doen.

Tot volgende week.
