Original subtitles

Merida,

known as Mexico's White City

for its clean streets and limestone architecture.

It was here that I slapped teams square in their burritos

with a Virtual Pit Stop.

Bloody hell! Why do they do this to us? I just wanna rest.

This is some sick joke.

"Route Info."

"Continue racing..."

"Make your way to Izamal, Mexico."

"Raise your glasses in a traditional..."

"...bottle dance to earn your next clue."

- Let's go. - Come on!

After two epic legs in Mexico and two Virtual Pit Stops,

our six remaining teams will take an hour-long drive

across the Yucatan Peninsula from the White City

to the Yellow City, Izamal.

Locals are divided on why Izamal is yellow.

It was given a fresh coat of paint for a visit from Pope John Paul II,

but it's also the home of the Mayan sun god, Kinich Ahau.

His pyramid sits slap-bang in the middle of a suburb,

but God knows how he got council approval.

It is the epic host city for the 18th leg of The Amazing Race Australia.

And that's the biggest flag I've ever seen.

Once here, teams will have to perform a traditional Yucatecan dance.

But just like my Friday nights,

they'll have to do it while balancing a beer bottle on their heads.

If they can get through the whole thing

without dropping their bottles...

...my two amigos will give them their next clue.

Kelly and Georgia are leading the way.

They're one ahead of us. It means nothing.

They're literally just following us.

Should we deliberately, like, throw them off and try and...

Kelly, no. That's a waste of time...and that's mean.

Let it go. We came first. That's true.

Get ready for some rally racing, people.

Izamal! Izamal! Izamal. Yep.

So it could be like a yellow city or something, G.

Yeah. It looks...it all looks like that mustardy colour.

Oh, yeah, all mustard colours. Yeah.

- That's beautiful. Look at this. - Yeah. How nice is that?

They all look the same.

Yeah, it does.

Let's go.

Go! Go! Does it mention bags?

Let's leave our bags here.

Does it have team names? Yeah.

Cynthia and Tiff are there. Oh, they're right behind us.

That was fast.

Bags.

Steph and Lauren are here. Everyone's gonna be here.

You look pretty! So do you.

No!

Oh, my God, it's on their head.

The bottle's on their head! Yeah.

When we saw it, I was, like, "We're done here."

It was so intricate.

Jesus!

Doing all of these steps and turns and twists

with a bottle on their head, like...

A beer bottle! Ohhh!

Salud!

Let's go to our teachers. They'll teach us.

Right, find the lady.

- Babe, we're going to the shade. - Yeah.

Or you'll burn to a crisp.

Hello. Can you teach us the...

Yes. OK.

Very slow. VERY slow.

- You're gonna be her. - Oh. What would you prefer?

Doesn't matter. I'll be him. OK.

We're gonna dance and you're gonna follow us.

OK. We're gonna try.

- Stomp, stomp. - Stomp, forward.

Stomp, back. OK. Back.

Toe, toe, toe.

Left, right.

Yeah. OK.

Left, forward.

Left, back. Left, forward, left...

Two, three, four, five...

Six... Seven. Snap, snap!

It's the worst feeling when you show up to a challenge

and you're the last ones there.

We're just really bad at navigating. That is our Achilles.

Google Maps has conditioned us to be...

I know! ...spoiled kids, so...

Hola! Hola! Hi!

We're here to learn.

So I'll be the woman? Um, no.

It's just the same? OK.

You have to put the bottle on your head.

Oh! One... Oh, my gosh.

You've got to spin,

but at the same time trying to balance a bottle on your head.

But you can't let the bottle drop.

Oh! Clean it up.

Frankie dropped his bottle within the first minute.

Smashed the glass through.

Straightaway.

Oh, my God.

- Oh, God. Oh. - Just gotta practise.

Ready? Yeah.

Oh!

How are you keeping your bottle so good, G?

I don't know.

Georgia has a big... I've a really big head.

Georgia has a big head, so she had a large surface area to rest it on.

Heath's struggling too. OK, yeah.

Where's the best part on your head? Where's the best part on my head?

I don't have a flat head. Yeah.

Dancing's hard enough.

Like, the concentration that I need to just dance is, like, next level.

Toni, I can't get it to sit on my head.

Heath, it takes time, babe. Oh.

And then having a bottle on my head, I can't...

Do two things at once. I can't do two things at once.

One, two, three, four.

Step, step, step, 12. Step, step, step, 12.

Don't drop the bottle.

I'm gonna drop it. I need sticky tape or something.

Seven, eight...

I can't keep it still.

Alright, we gotta get this. Oh!

Otherwise we're going home today. Yeah, I know.

One, two, three...

Four.

Last time I went to a nightclub and was dancing with a bottle on my head

was probably about 15 years ago.

Wait, let me just do the maths. Is that legal?

Yeah.

No, I'd be underage.

Hello! Hello.

Are you ready? Yes.

We're gonna give it a go. We're gonna try.

Ready? Set, seven, eight...

- Let's give it a go. - We want to try.

Three, four.

Back, back, back, back.

Turn, turn.

And now go up top.

Forward.

Hey!

Gracias!

Thank you! Gracias! Gracias.

"Route..." "Route Info."

"By counting convent arches

"direct a horse and carriage to an intersection of streets

"within the Yellow City of Mexico." Let's go!

Like most of Mexico,

the streets of Izamal have numbers instead of names,

which can make driving around

feel like you need to call your accountant.

To find their next clue, teams will have to count

the 31 exterior and 24 interior arches

of this 500-year-old convent.

If they do the maths correctly,

they'll be able to give the driver of one of these horse-drawn carriages

an address for an intersection.

Once they knock on the right door,

they will meet my accountant, Esteban.

He's not great with numbers but knows how to hand over an envelope.

Senor! Senor! Senor!

Convento... De 'Paula'... 'Paula'?

Walking?

Oh, up there? Up there? Walking?

Gracias. Gracias.

Oh, there. It's up there. In the arches there.

One, two, three.

Nah. Sorry!

We need to get it this time, OK? Yep.

Ready, ready? Ready?

Whoo!

Thank you! Thank you so much. Thank you, thank you.

"By counting convent arches,

"direct a horse and carriage to an intersection of streets."

- Oh, this place is amazing! - Wow. Beautiful.

Cynthia and Tiffany just got their clue, so we gotta move.

Seven...

Six.

Are you still with me? Eight. Yeah.

I'll count this side, OK? OK.

So, one...

Is this counted as one?

I'm gonna put it on there just in case.

I'll put them on the bottom

'cause they'll be classed as interior

'cause they're not exterior.

Nine.

Ten.

What about here? Like, one, two, three. Are those counted?

14.

Did I count this one? Or did I start there?

Let's do another round.

Nah.

One, two. G, we're done, we're done. Come.

There was... You went... We went the wrong way on the spins.

Oh!

One, two...

Steph.

Come on! Stay on my head! We're gonna get it.

We're not. We are!

Forward.

OK, Heath?

One, two, three.

Argh!

Nah! Argh!

Sorry, babe, it was really close. Sorry. Sorry.

- That little arch? - No.

You think that's included? No. Don't look at it.

So we've got...

Interior was...25. 25.

And then plus 6.

Plus 6.

31. 31.

And then add 6 to that.

Is what? 24.6.

It can't be...a decimal.

And then the next one... Yep.

Exterior - 16. 16.

And then we're gonna plus 8.

Do you reckon we should count again? Nah. Maybe we're thinking too much.

Hey? Maybe.

It's on the corner of Calle 31 and Calle 24.

OK, let's go. OK.

One, two...

Walk on.

Yes!

Thank you very much! Yeah!

And forward, Heath.

Two, three.

Yes!

Whoo!

"By counting the convent arches..."

"...direct a horse and carriage to an intersection..."

"...within the Yellow City of Mexico."

Let's do it. Maths. I love that. Let's go! Yeah! Maths!

Senor, senor, intersection Calle 21 and Calle 24.

OK.

Hello! 30...27.

"Once you're at the intersection,

"knock on the marked door to receive your next clue."

- Vamonos! - Vamonos!

Hey! It's so cool!

Oh, I was waiting to ride one of these things.

Made me think of, like, Cinderella, you know, the horse and carriage.

We go 30 and then 27 would be across.

OK.

31 and 24. There's 31 and 24 here.

Can you see a marker anywhere? Um...

Can you just wait?

Is there a marker?

No. We've gone too far. OK. Go back that way.

Yep.

Marked door! Yes!

Hola! Hola!

"Road Block." You're up.

"Who's ready to be pinned down?"

You are! Pin me down.

A Road Block is a challenge

that only one team member can complete.

In this Road Block, teams will travel to the small village of Sudzal...

...where they'll join a sewing circle

with these mamacitas.

The team member completing the Road Block

will be given a half-finished pattern

for a traditional Yucatecan flower design.

If they can correctly complete the flower,

they'll receive their next clue.

We go back.

There's no marked doors. Did we get it wrong?

Should we go down to 28?

There might not be... OK. We can jump on...27.

That was 29 and then 27.

So there's no 28.

Thank you!

Stomp, stomp. Stomp, stomp.

Hey!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you so much!

"Direct a horse and carriage to an..."

"...intersection of streets within the Yellow City of Mexico."

Let's go!

- Do you wanna work together? - Yeah, I'm a maths teacher.

Do you wanna do the exterior?

Yeah, I teach maths. We'll count the interior archways.

- You do exterior. Then we'll confer. - We'll count in our head.

Make sure to get it right. OK.

We're interior. Yeah?

Exterior is external. Do you know what I mean?

Yeah.

Want me to count exterior, you count interior?

OK. So, four on this side...

Do you reckon there were four? Like, I'm counting those ones.

That's why. I don't know.

I'll just put "four, question mark". Question mark, yeah.

Maybe we go back and start again.

Ohh.

So where are we heading? Don't know. I saw the boys run here.

Interior archways and the exterior archways of the courtyard.

18.

19.

- OK, got your numbers? - Right. Yeah.

It was really handy, I think, for them having me.

Get your calculator, Heath. I can do the calculations.

I can do it in my head. I did it straightaway.

25 plus 8 is 33.

Plus 6. Yeah, awesome.

Interior. So, 25...

- Oh, sorry. - Let's just do a calc.

So number of each... 25 plus 6 is 31.

Not only is everyone using him for directions,

they're using him for his maths brain as well.

No, you're plussing 8. Oh, sorry, yeah.

No, I'm interior. 31. 31.

That's what I said. What number did you guys get?

So you're saying your answer is 31? Mm-hm.

OK, we got 26.

We got 16 for...the interior...

- The exterior. - The exterior.

We think it's 31 and 26. I can't guarantee it's right.

31 and 26. But we don't know.

Are you re-counting, Tiff?

Yeah, we lost our number. What did youse get?

Uh, 31...26.

We got 30.6, so you've rounded up.

No, you shouldn't have to round. It will be exact.

OK. 31...26. OK.

Try that.

Follow, follow, follow.

Follow that one.

Kelly said that there shouldn't be any decimals, so we had to...

Yeah, and he's a maths teacher, so...

He's a maths teacher, so we're listening to him.

OK, I'm pretty sure our maths is right.

23? 25. I've got 25 here.

Do you want to count the doors again?

What made this hard was just our maths, in general.

Yeah.

So, 25.

So, 25... They got 31. No, it's 25 and 16.

So do you wanna just use what they got?

31 and 26. Gracias.

Whoo! This is cool!

Yeah, we felt like royalty, but, hey, we feel like royalty every day,

so it's no different.

The queens.

Should we go that way?

How do you know that we're on the right street right now?

Do you have the map in front of you? I don't have anything.

We could be going in the opposite direction.

You have the map. Is this is all I had?

That's what I'm asking for. You have it.

I didn't have... I'm just... It's fine.

I've got the map that you said you didn't have. It's fine.

I don't know where you've taken us now.

We're on Calle 23.

Nothing on this map is matching any of the signs!

Are you sure this is...

See? 31A, is it?

We're back at the horses where we started.

- That makes sense, doesn't it? - Yep.

- Oh! Keep going. - Follow them.

Can we follow them?

31 and 24.

Wow, this is beautiful. I know we're last but this is very beautiful.

Oh, look, it's got a little hat on! Oh, my God!

There's no markings, G.

- Yes! - Yes?

Hey! Hey!

Bring your bag.

Sorry. I just... Yeah, we must have accidentally counted a few too many.

Hola, sir!

Muchas gracias, senor.

Gracias.

Keep Steph and Lauren behind us.

Thank you so much!

Thank you so much.

"Road Block."

"Who's ready to be pinned down?" Oh, OK.

"Who's ready to be pinned down?" I'll do it.

Me. Oh, my God, what is it?

"Join the centuries-old Yucatecan tradition of embroidery."

Sorry.

If this is the street we're supposed to be on,

we have to turn right onto C5.

You've got this little bit of extra time on everyone, OK?

Yep.

You go. You go.

And you've got a demo there. Ohh.

Frack! Oh, my gosh.

What the hell?

Millennials. Another thing that we don't do.

Sewing and embroidery. My grandparents do that stuff.

To be able to use a needle and thread

and 'embroid' something that way...

How do you start it?

What the...?

Where's the... Oh!

Oh, my gosh.

You had to follow her design of a flower

and there was a certain technique to do it.

You had to miss a few boxes, come back around.

It looked so difficult.

Come on, Frankie, let's go. Let's give it a shot. Come on, Frankie.

Oh. Come on.

We gotta get going.

Yeah, honestly, it's difficult. You can do it, you can do it.

Gracias! You OK?

Oh, yeah, I had 24. You had 24?

Gracias.

Oh, gracias!

Thank you!

"Road Block."

"Road Block!"

"Who's ready to be pinned down?"

Yeah, I'll do it. OK.

"Who's ready to be pinned down?"

Alright. Wow.

You will?

I'll take it. Yep.

It's alright. We're fine.

Keep going straight? Yeah. Keep following this now.

Sud...Sudzal?

Keep going. This might be the town here.

Oh!

Oh, God.

So you've got three colours.

Watch... Watch how she's doing it.

I didn't really like embroidery that much

when I was younger.

More like sewing and stitching, I didn't mind that.

But embroidery is different 'cause you have, like, sew

in through exact spots to get it exactly right

and, like, you have to know what you're doing

and the technique.

Oh, the technique doesn't look too bad.

I don't know it, but it doesn't look hard to do.

It was my turn for the Road Block,

but I was not expecting embroidery.

Bloody hell.

Heath's sewing skills are as good as mine, which is pretty poor.

Uh, bit of confidence, please, Toni.

Bit of confidence, though. Uh, he's got lovely fingers and hands.

They do wonderful things.

So I'm sure with the embroidery, he'll also nail it.

Is everyone making the same design?

When I saw what we had to do with the cross-stitching,

straightaway I was, like, "This is so hard."

I did not even know how to get started.

I need to watch someone from the beginning.

In a Road Block when you can't swap, you can't even communicate,

the pressure is absolutely massive.

So just knowing that it was all on me to get us through this,

oh, I just...I just hate it, I dread that type of stuff.

She just showed it to me, but now she's unpicking it,

so I don't know if she showed me the wrong thing or not.

I'm so confused.

- You right, Heathy? - I don't have a needle.

You do, baby. Look. Coo-ee!

The thing that sparkles, babe.

I kind of worked out the cross pattern.

There was a template that we kinda followed,

but I couldn't thread the freakin' needle.

I was so... He got the full shake.

I was so shaking and I just could not get this stupid freakin' wool

through the bloody needle.

I just wish it was you doing it and not me.

Frankie, when you're ready. Other teams are going.

I'll just give it a go. I don't know what I'm doing.

You stood there that whole time and you don't know what you're doing?

You don't even know.

I really don't want to think about that.

I just wanna do one challenge at a time.

Calle 5?

Calle 5, probably. Keep an eye out for it.

If you go step by step...

Turn right in 6.3km.

Yep. OK. Oh, sorry, babe.

I really need a make-up wipe to get this off.

Huh?

I need a make-up wipe to get all this off.

Worst challenge ever.

You've got it.

You can do this, Frankie. How does this look?

I have full confidence in you.

Have confidence in yourself. Huh?

Nah, 'cause then it won't go through the thing.

It was actually really tough doing embroidery.

I've used sewing machines before. Sewing machines!

Oh.

Needle and thread myself? No way.

OK.

That took way too long.

Can you get that through, Georgia?

I haven't started yet. Neither have I.

I'm literally hovering my string.

I was so overwhelmed by the intricacy of it all,

I was, like, "Oh, this is gonna be a bit hard."

OK.

Oh, my gosh, this doesn't even look anything like it.

It is a lot of pressure getting a Road Block,

but I chose to do this one, don't know why, just felt it.

There's a few cars there. There's a flag there, babe.

Look, look, look! Alright. We're still in this. OK.

Every team was there when we arrived, which was great.

We felt like we might be able to make a couple of places

and get right back at the front.

I've no clue what I'm doing.

- But I'm just gonna try it. - You've got this, babe.

Do your best.

I pick things up really quickly. Mm-hm.

The only way you're gonna know or learn is to go and do it.

So I got in there and did it.

This is a good place to start, Pako.

You got this. You got this.

Well, I think I've got this.

Oh, you've got to feel confident. Otherwise you just cry.

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

Go on, babe.

It definitely wasn't straightforward.

So...that was a bit frustrating.

But it made me realise just really focus on the pattern.

Need any water, G? You good? I'm good.

Oh, you're joking me. You're doing really good.

Proud of you. Why did that not go?

Just keep going, G.

Looks good.

No.

Oh, frack! Got one off.

I was spacing them out so you could actually see the crisscross,

but I had to make sure that I connected everything.

Just start it again, Frankie. Yeah.

Ah! Yes!

What? I got it!

Well done, mate. Well done. Oh, my God!

I'm a natural. Well done.

I got it on my first go!

Which is, like, crazy. Yeah.

Thank you! Gracias.

Gracias, abuela.

"Route Info. Make your way to Cenote X'Canche

"and swim to Beau at the next Pit Stop."

Teams must make their way to the ancient Mayan city of Ek Balam

to the beautiful Cenote X'Canche.

The Yucatan Peninsula is home

to over 6,000 of these incredible watering holes.

They are a natural haven for fish, birds and budgies.

Well, budgie smugglers.

All teams have gotta do is zip-line to me at the Pit Stop.

"Hurry, the last team to check in may be eliminated."

When we arrived, there were three teams there,

but when we left, all the teams were there.

Yep.

So we had a bit of a lead,

but we need that lead because we're guaranteed gonna get lost.

Mmm.

Um, yeah, another Pit Stop. This will be number four?

Wait. Number three...

One... Wait.

Oh, my God, I don't even know! I can't even count.

It's... It's our third Pit Stop.

This is our third Pit Stop? Yep.

In two days or three days?

In three days. In three days.

Oh, my God, it's so full-on.

Thank you.

Thank you. Gracias. Thank you.

Yes! Yeah?

- Thank you. - Well done, baby girl!

- Gracias. - Good job!

Un, dos, tres.

Oh, thank you! Thank you so much!

Muchas gracias. Thank you so much.

Let's go, Heathy! Thank you.

"Make your way to Cenote X'Canche..."

"...and swim to Beau at the next Pit Stop.

"Hurry, the last team to check in may be eliminated."

Next Pit Stop! Let's go.

Let's go, let's go.

Unlock, unlock. Oh!

Sorry.

We gotta go!

I'm doing it.

Get in? Yeah.

Oh, shit.

It has come down to Steph and Lauren and us.

Whoever gets this first, they're probably safe today.

How are you going, Georgia?

Struggling!

You're not the only one. Don't stress.

Yeah, exactly. Let's just...

Lauren was struggling a little bit with it as well,

so I really had a lot of confidence in myself

that I could get it before them.

This is hard. I know.

But you know what it's like when it gets to the pointy end, gotta...

I know, Steph, yeah. ...get something on the board.

I felt like I was under a lot of pressure

because I'm not good at stitching or any arts and crafts.

Yeah, I don't know, I'd probably have a bit more attention to detail

and can concentrate on those sort of things than Lauren, but...

Alright, alright.

Just keep going.

OK? Keep going. You're nearly there. Yeah, I'm just, like, so exhausted.

I know you are. We're nearly there. Keep going.

Oh, thank you!

Babe... Thank you.

Let's go, babe. I'm gonna cry. Sorry.

Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you. I really appreciate it.

Bring it with you. Come on. OK.

"Make your way to Cenote X'Canche

"and swim to Beau at the next Pit Stop.

"Hurry, last team to check in may be eliminated."

Let's go!

When that judge gave her the thumbs up, I thought, "Hooley dooley,

"there's a chance that we still might be in this at this stage."

Just keep going. Do what you can.

Shall we take a penalty?

No, just keep going. We don't give up.

Keep going. We finish, OK?

It added salt to the wounds knowing that

a couple of hours before, we were in first place,

and throughout most of the leg, we were top three.

But you never know what can happen

so you have to keep going no matter how far behind you are.

We're gonna get to that Pit Stop, alright?

Mm-hm. Please stop talking for a second. Sorry.

That's OK. It's OK.

OK, G, you got this.

Of course Lauren got it before me.

So that meant the pressure was on me to get us back up.

Yeah. Yes!

Good job, Georgia. Great job.

Thank you so much!

It's so hard, it's so hard.

Thank you! OK.

"Make your way to Cenote X'Canche

"and swim to Beau at the next Pit Stop.

"Hurry, the last team to check in may be eliminated."

Steph and Lauren were probably about 15 or 20 minutes ahead of us.

You never want to get your hopes up too high because you'll get crushed.

So for us there was that little bit of hope that they would get lost,

but we didn't want to get over-excited.

Eventually we're gonna link back at the highway, OK?

This says one hour 40 drive.

That's just cruel.

Are you OK?

Yeah, I'm good.

So, Lauren, we arrived at that challenge last.

Yeah. But we've left second-last.

Yep.

And I definitely think this is a do-or-die situation.

It's just so stressful.

So do me a favour and take a big breath.

Yeah. And shake it off.

Because there's a lot of room for error, OK?

The only problem with us is directions.

Hola!

I mean, we're not bad at it. We're just not good at it.

Yep. Go left.

And keep following it. Keep following it.

But the godsend is Mori's language.

Lucky they understand Spanglish because they were able to help us.

Yes.

Oh, they might know. They're locals.

That way? 10km?

Second left. Thank you.

It's so confusing.

Oh, God, what a tough couple of days.

What do we gotta do? Gotta swim.

Cenote.

"You've got to take two marked bikes and take the path to the cenote.

"Make your way carefully down the stairs to swim to Beau."

I'm pretty excited for that, eh? Yeah.

Oh, God, I could kiss him if we get there!

Toni, we're the first team! No, we're not.

Yeah, we are.

Yeah, everything.

So when we arrived, we noticed there were no cars.

So we got a bit excited, but we weren't getting ahead of ourselves.

You just never know until you jump on that mat with Beau.

Alright, where do we go now, Heath?

This way? Yeah.

Helmets. Sweet.

OK, helmet on, gorgeous. I'm riding yellow.

Let's go! Yeah.

Oh, God, this is a bit low. I know.

There's no brakes!

There's back brakes. I can see that.

Toni, there's back brakes.

That's crazy.

Where the hell are we?! I don't know!

What are we doing? I don't know.

Oh, my God! My God, I think we're nearly there.

Come on! Ride beside me.

Oh, it's too small for me.

So where do you live? I live in Merida.

Merida? I like Merida.

Yeah, it's beautiful. Yeah.

How do you feel about the teams coming in? Do you get nervous?

I get nervous sometimes! Yeah, I'm so nervous.

Mate, you'll be right, you'll be right.

I don't know how we're gonna get back, though.

Don't stop. No!

- Down this way? - Straight ahead.

Gracias!

Oh! I see him!

Oh, Jesus Christ!

There's a massive iguana.

Oh! Look at this!

Oh, it's Heath and Toni.

You'll like these two. Yeah, yeah. Yeah.

Go, Tones, enjoy this!

OK. Whoo!

Whoooooo!

Go, Tones!

Whoo, baby!

Whoo-hoo!

Give me your hand. Thanks, Tone.

Thanks.

Hi! Welcome to Yucatan, Mexico. Thank you so much.

Heath and Toni, you are the first team to check in.

Toni, watch out.

Whoa-ho-ho-ho! Whoa-ho-ho.

And because you've come in first,

you've won a $5,000 Red Balloon voucher

which allows you to pick from over 4,000 experiences

in Australia and New Zealand.

From scenic flights to getaways, Red Balloon has it all.

Oh, my God. Thank you, Beau.

So there's another holiday for you or your loved ones. Good job, huh?

Great to see you guys. Thank you. Thanks, Beau.

Now, you can just swim over there. How good's this place, huh?

So good! Swim over there.

OK. Good luck.

It means the absolute world to finish at the top of the pack again.

Yeah.

Nice!

And what a beautiful spot to do it there.

Absolutely amazing.

Can you throw me down a taco or a fajita or something, bro?

Yeah!

Holy... Bullshit, is that them?

The cops are just this blue car in front of us, G.

Keep going. No, they are.

They were driving a blue car. I remember a blue car.

We're still in with a chance. It's just a matter now if they get...

My stomach is churning! So, yeah, we can't pass them.

So just keep them within sight.

Where do you think we're sitting at the moment

in terms of teams?

I think we're still in front of Kelly and Georgia.

Yeah.

But...can we just pretend like we're not?

Yeah.

Oh, we don't even know where we are in this race!

Who's in the orange car?

- Pako and Mori? - Pako and Mori!

Oh, my God! There's no way.

They left first.

Seeing another orange car has just given us a little bit of hope.

Who was in a silver car?

Heath and Toni?

I don't know. Uh, Frankie and Angel?

I don't recognise that car.

I don't either.

We gotta get there.

Oh, my God.

- Oh, my God. - Hi, ladies.

Hey, guys!

We got lost. It's only three cars.

There's only three... We got lost too.

We got lost too! We went into a different town.

Come on, let's go. Car's coming. Car's coming. OK, let's go.

Go, go, go!

The drive to the Pit Stop was a lengthy one.

But we had to go on this beautiful bike ride and I was OK with that.

It beats running any day. Yeah.

Go! OK.

Let's go! Go!

Let's go!

- Whoo! - Yew!

Yaaas, queens!

Oh, my God!

Oh, my God, this is so much better than running.

Are you OK, ladies? Youse alright?

- Yeah. - Whoo-hoo!

We're going downhill. We don't even have to pedal.

I haven't ridden a bike like this in years!

Oh, my God! This is so cool!

We must buy a bike when we get back home.

I know! We need to go biking more.

One kilometre, guys! One kilometre.

Does it say to leave the keys in here or not?

Does it say leave the keys in here?

So we finally arrive after a long drive.

Oh, lucky we celebrated the Day of the Dead

because we're literally dead ourselves.

Literally feel dead.

She's up, baby.

Go!

Oh! My gosh.

You good? Yeah.

This is more like it.

Jeez, we're going faster than when we were driving.

What's your, um, favourite taco?

Mmm. Arrachera.

Ooh, yes. You?

To be honest, Elena, I like pork.

Pork? Pork, pork, yeah, yeah.

It's so delicious.

It's beautiful, isn't it?

We don't eat on this show 'cause of budget problems.

Ready, babe? Yes.

Whoo-hoo!

Oh, it's the boys!

Whoo! Oh, my gosh!

Let go! Let go!

Ready, set...

Go!

Whoo! Oh, yeah!

Whoo-hoo!

Nice!

Hi. Welcome to Yucatan, Mexico.

Gracias! Thank you, gorgeous!

Oh! It's beautiful.

Welcome. So is she.

Pako and Mori, you are the second team to check in.

We thought we were out!

We thought we were goners. We thought we were going home.

Alright, boys, well, we've got another team coming in.

Hey! Good job. Swim down that way. Go get me a taco! Go! Go! Go!

Oh, yes!

Welcome to Yucatan, Mexico.

Thank you.

Tiffany and Cynthia, you are the third team to check in.

Go!

Which way do we go, Kelly? This way. I know where to go.

We jumped out of the car. I've never run so fast in my life.

Let's go, G. Good job.

We don't know if they're in front of us or just behind us.

We just know we've gotta work hard to get to this Pit Stop.

Come on, G. Do you want me to carry your bag?

OK, fine. Yep. Give.

I'm sorry. It's alright.

Let's go.

Where are the bikes? Keep going.

Don't worry about it.

Whoo-hoo-hoo! There's Beau!

Drop, drop, drop, drop! Drop!

Drop!

Wow. We're not insured for that.

Oh, gosh.

Drop!

Good job!

Welcome to Yucatan, Mexico. Thank you.

Angel and Frankie, you are the fourth team to check in.

Wow! Look at this, G.

I know. That's it. Love you. Have fun.

That was good.

Whoa!

Wow.

I love you. I love you.

Oh, wow.

Welcome to Yucatan, Mexico.

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

Kelly and Georgia, you are the fifth team to check in.

Yes! Oh.

Yes!

I know, I know.

Far out. So close.

We've now got a 1-in-5 chance of winning 250 k,

an absolute life-changing amount of money.

So, for us, it's time to get serious.

Alright, well, uh, swim back.

Alright, let's enjoy this. We will.

Let's go. Good job, man! Love you.

'Bye! Whoa!

Well, it's getting dark and it's time to pack up.

Someone call triple-O so we can find our cops!

This way? There's a... Here.

Throughout the race, I guess Lauren and I have kinda subscribed to

"you're not out till you're out".

But we turned our 1 hour and 43 minute trip

into about a three-hour trip.

Girls.

Beau.

Hi. What's going on?

I found ya! We had to close the Pit Stop.

Unfortunately, it was getting dangerous down there.

It was too dark. Hmm. Sorry. Sorry we were late.

It's OK.

Unfortunately, you're the last team to arrive.

Well, you haven't even arrived yet! No.

And, um, you're eliminated.

I'm sorry. Yeah, I think we expected that.

Yeah, we knew it was coming. Yeah.

You enjoyed Mexico? Oh, incredible.

Yeah. It was so much fun!

- Well, at least you're smiling. - Yeah.

That's alright. I think it's nice to go out in such a beautiful place.

It's a shame we couldn't make it any further, but it is what it is.

Yeah. And bring it in. Oh, thanks, Beau.

Ohh.

Thanks, anyway. Thanks for having us.

Sorry, guys, yeah. I have no idea how you're getting back.

We're cycling. But stick together.

Alright, you might be home before me. Off you go.

Be safe, girls.

Thank you! Thanks, Beau.

It's the wildest adventure you can ever have.

You know, you're gonna go to all these beautiful places

and do all these crazy things.

Like, I'm so grateful that we had this opportunity

and The Amazing Race is truly amazing.

Well, there you go, from standing on a pontoon for most of the day

to sprinting up a hill to eliminate the girls.

The race has it all and it stops for no-one.

I've got to get out of here before it gets dark,

but there you go, another team gone.

Next time on The Amazing Race Australia...

...we head down under to WA.

- Fly to the City of Lights, Perth! - Let's go!

But with only five teams left...

Don't come and yell in my face. I'm not yelling.

- ...they must battle it out... - Kelly! Oh!

...to stay on top...

- ...and not... - Come on.

- ...be left hanging. - I can't see!

I've got so much fight left in me.
