The Amazing Race Australia (2011) s05e14 Episode Script

1
Previously on
The Amazing Race Australia,
teams went to war in Townsville
We definitely got a taste
of what the army's like.
It was a brutal day.
..our body builders went MIA
Some vans down there.
Looks like they're parked
in the fricking bush.
Hulk smash!
..but escaped elimination
Predetermined non-elimination leg.
- What?!
- We're not gone.
..and our Gold Coast girls
emerged as top guns.
Ashleigh and Amanda,
you are the first team to check in.
Thank you. Whoo!
Two legs in a row
is such a big achievement.
Tonight, teams pair up
for an epic rescue challenge
Whoo-whoo!
Yeah, I'm a bit worried now.
What do you think, man?
I can hear the road. We shouldn't
be able to hear the road.
..and an unlikely alliance is formed.
I love Chris and Aleisha.
We formed a good alliance.
It's really paying off right now.
But when a supergroup emerges
I'm going to help Skye.
We have an official alliance
with Skye and Jake,
the Cowboys, and the Sikhs.
..one team is targeted.
They are 100% all working together now.
- Hello.
- Hi.
- How are you?
- Good, thank you.
Aleisha and Chris,
they are the team
that I do not trust
out of absolutely anyone.
Teams have travelled from Townsville
to the Sunshine Coast,
where they will head
to the Glass House Mountains.
They are the most iconic landmark
in the Sunshine Coast, bar none.
And what better place
to have the 14th leg
of The Amazing Race Australia?
Our eight remaining teams will depart
in the order that they arrived
at the last pit stop.
"Welcome to the
beautiful Glass House Mountains."
"Find the intersection board
to sign up for your next challenge.
"It's time for you to get lost."
In this intersection,
two teams must choose to work together.
Half will be stranded
somewhere in the treacherous
Glass House Mountains,
where they must head
to the highest point to find a phone.
They'll then call
their search party teammates
to describe their location.
Once the searchers have worked out
where the stranded are located,
they must fly with
the Land Rover LifeFlight
Special Mission helicopter crew
and rescue them.
But first, the critical decision
as to who to pair up with
must be made by all teams
at the intersection board
outside the airport.
Let's go! Let's go!
This sounds really fun.
"Route info.
"Welcome to the beautiful
Glass House Mountains.
"Find the intersection board
to sign up for your next challenge."
We could go with either the Cowboys
- Or the Sikhs.
- Or Skye and Jake.
They'd all be good at this.
We were first at the board
this morning,
so we basically had our pick
from all the teams,
but we also didn't want to waste time
by waiting for other teams
to come through.
So, pretty easy decision
for us to pick the Cowboys.
They were second in line.
We're just trying to decide
who would be in search
- and who would be stranded.
- I'll be stranded.
Right. You can go with Ashleigh, then.
So, we had to split up today
and work with our intersection group,
and so Brendon and I were stranded,
while Amanda and Jackson
were searching for us.
We're pretty comfortable
working with them.
They help us, we help them. We push
each other, so it's a good alliance.
OK. We arrived at
the intersection board third.
We knew, right behind us,
was Skye-Blue and Jake,
which was perfect for us.
"The next challenge.
It's time for you to get lost."
- Sick!
- Sick!
- Do you guys want to work together?
- Yeah.
Done. Let's do it.
It'll cost you $50, though.
Who the hell do we want to work with?
We've got a bit of a choice.
Do we wait?
We did wonder if we should wait
for MJ and Chelsea.
And I know that
they work really, really hard.
Do you want to work
with Holly and Dolor?
Do you think
we'll burn a lot of bridges
if we wait for the girls?
Or we could only burn one bridge.
They get lost a bit.
I'm just nervous that
that's going to set us back.
- I think we'll be able to do it.
- OK.
- An intersection board.
- Hi, guys.
- Do you want to work with us?
- Oh, of course. Yeah.
Yeah. Nice, guys. Let's do it.
It felt like a natural team connection
that it should happen at intersection.
I would have been shocked
if Chris and Aleisha
picked anyone else but Holly and I.
Hey, hey, hey!
Do you guys want to work with us today?
We would love to work with you today.
I really like Chelsea and MJ,
and they've been, like,
our go-to from day dot.
The Stowaway alliance!
Skye's got experience
using compasses and stuff like that.
Yeah? I'm pretty good
at reading maps as well.
The stranded team member will be
thrown into the forest somewhere
and the lucky search team member
had to go find us.
It was like a game of hide-and-seek.
Are you guys good
at navigating your way?
- I am.
- He's really good.
- You are good?
- I am. I am, yeah.
- 'Cause he's OK, but
- I'll navigate myself, yeah.
Yeah, going into this leg,
I feel like Holly and I are very smart,
and Chris and Aleisha
are also very smart.
They're definitely one of the smartest
people in the whole competition.
Um
Oh, yeah.
Here, here. Arrow. Arrow.
Pretty intense clue.
We're flying with LifeFlight
to rescue one of our team members
from an unknown location,
which we had to find on a map,
and let the senior map reader know.
Table! Table!
Jackson and I have to run
to the LifeFlight hangar,
while Ashleigh and Brendon
are the team members getting lost.
They headed out on a bus
to an unknown location.
OK. So, we have a cell phone.
- I haven't seen one of these in weeks!
- I know.
We now have to wait for them to call us
before we can open our boxes.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Hey!
- Thank you.
- We are Team C.
- C?
Aleisha and I were so excited that
it was Dolor and Chris going out,
as we knew that
they've got more stamina,
they're fitter, they'll have
better navigational skills.
And we'll be better
to listen to their instructions
and use that to find them on the map.
Oh, yeah. Here we go.
We got dropped off
and had to work out
where the highest point was,
get to the highest point,
and then I had to call my rescue party
to tell them where I am.
Shall we just go back up
to that lookout?
Back the way we came?
- I guess so.
- OK, let's go.
Hold it. Let's go.
Jake and I had seen a little ramp
that had gone uphill to a lookout.
That must be a high point.
Either that is where we need to go,
or, from the lookout,
we will look out
for the next highest point
and we will go to there.
Shall we go that way?
Some of them are going
that way instead, yeah.
But we came from that way, though.
No, no, we came from that way,
didn't we?
- I said we came from that way.
- Yeah, I think we go this way.
I just don't know why they went
that way, you know what I mean?
Remember I told you
there was a lookout?
The lookout? Signs for a lookout?
That's a bit too easy.
They ran the wrong way for no reason.
That's awesome.
That's really good for us.
I told you the other teams
weren't that smart.
Chris and I, for sure,
are the smartest guys
to go out and search.
Do you reckon we go this way?
Might as well.
Stan and I saw
the other teams go before us.
Do you want to head this way?
- Yeah.
- Yeah?
Oh, stop. There's a track.
- Can you see the track?
- Yeah.
- Let's give this one a go, hey?
- I think so.
Should we leave something here,
like wool?
Shall we leave a trail of wool
if we go up this track?
- I'll tie it up.
- So we don't get lost?
It'd be the worst
if we were on the wrong trail.
We tied our wool to the tree
and just said,
"Come on, Stan. Let's go!"
Shall we just go straight up?
I'm feeling more confident
about this, hey?
- At least we're going uphill.
- Yeah, that's correct.
We've got to get to
the highest point to find a box,
and then, from that,
we can communicate with our team
to tell them where they need
to come and rescue us from.
Look, just there.
- What's that?
- Straight up.
Let's go.
The minutes are ticking by,
no-one's getting a phone call.
Everyone's thinking,
"When are we going to start?"
- What are they doing?
- What are they doing?!
So, Holly and I were praying that
the boys were going the right way.
I think Brendon and Ashleigh
ran the other way, so
- The others followed.
- Like headless chooks.
- Yeah, I think so.
- Follow the leader, like sheep.
Alright.
"Communicate your location
by identifying your surroundings."
OK, let's call them.
Do you want to do that?
Calling.
Copy. You've got Stinging Roger.
- Alright, guvnor.
- You all good?
We are stranded on a mountain.
When Jackson and I opened the map,
all it was was a topographic map.
No roads, no houses, no landmarks.
Hey, it's Amanda. Are you on Ngungun?
- No, no, we're not.
- Are you on one of the peaks?
To our left, we can see,
like, 11 mountains.
I was really knowledgeable
on which Glass House Mountains
were which.
I knew exactly what they looked like
because Ash and I
come up hiking here a lot
and we spend a lot of time
in the Sunshine Coast.
You've got the Bruce Highway
on the left.
As soon as Ashleigh
gave me the directions
that she was left of the Bruce Highway
when she was facing north,
I knew the only mountain
that could have possibly been
in that spot was Wild Horse.
Put the sticker on.
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
- OK, stay on the phone.
- Stay on the phone. Got it.
Sorry, um, are we?
- Yes.
- Yes!
- Yes!
- Very good. Righto.
Thank you. Thank you.
- Let's go! Let's go!
- Thank you.
- Nailed it. That's a start!
- Yes!
Whoo!
I'm glad Dolor's the direction guy
'cause Chris is not great.
Not good? No, Dolor's good with it.
So, we've got to find
the highest point, right?
We've got to find the highest point
of the mountain,
so at least start going up soon, or
else we're going around in circles.
Do you think the highest point
would have been the lookout?
What do you think, man?
Do you want to keep going
the way we're going
or do you want to go back
to the lookout?
It sounds like
he's going back to the road.
I heard sounds of cars and motorbikes,
which didn't make any sense
because we were meant to be going
up a mountain, not near the highway.
Yeah, I'm a bit worried now.
- What do you think, man?
- I can hear the road.
- Can you hear the road?
- Yeah.
- We shouldn't be able to hear the road.
- Yeah.
So,
what we're going to do is
- Do you know where it is?
- Yes.
- Yeah.
- Grab that.
I'm guessing
Do you see a lot of peaks from there?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
They're slightly, um, north-west.
It's game on. Let's do this.
Being an engineer,
I should be able to read a map
and figure out what the contours are.
Can you see the highest peak
on your map?
We see a mountain that's 566 metres.
And that On your map,
that's all you'll need.
That's north. That's east.
There's nothing there,
so I reckon try that one.
I'll put the sticker in.
- Oh! Yes.
- Yes!
- Come on. Let's go. Thank you.
- Thank you.
I really enjoyed switching partners.
Not having Jas around was refreshing.
I saw the flag waving
in the air and my two teammates,
and I was so excited because
I knew we were in first place
and we were about to get out of here
and have a massive lead
on the other teams.
Loved working with someone different
for the day. I mean, yeah
A lot prettier than you were,
I can tell you that much.
I don't know about that.
This was a short cut. Awesome work.
Stan and I decided that
we would take the high ground,
bush bashing.
We shot up this steep slope.
Here we go. We're so there.
Chelsea is extremely fit
and a true athlete,
and I pose on a stage, you know?
And I haven't ran for a long time!
Good job, mate.
One step in front of the other.
We're nearly back
to where we started.
Yeah.
Oh, do you reckon
that's the rescue helicopter
- to pick them up?
- Yeah.
- This is for the other teams.
- Yeah.
Coming into this leg,
we told ourselves,
"We want to come first.
"Let's get back to number one."
That's it. Some kind of tower up here.
Just need to get up here, find our box.
Right.
OK.
I've forgotten how to bloody use it!
Right, where am I?
- MJ, MJ, MJ!
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
- Answer?
- Yeah, answer.
- Now?
- Got it? Yeah, green.
Is it green? Hello?
No, it's not.
- Star to unlock.
- Press unlock.
There was a button on the phone,
and you'd think that me pressing
the green thing a couple of times
would have answered.
And I'm like, "Hello?"
No-one's answering me.
The message bank?
Why do I have the message bank?
- Call back.
- No, but they ring me.
I don't know
how to use these phones.
Oh, press this one. Unlock.
I haven't used a phone like this
in 10 years.
Hello? OK. So, where are you?
Yeah, OK. So, we are east.
OK, you're east of the biggest one. OK.
- MJ
- They're not answering.
Wayne, it's Chelsea.
We are at the top of
Wild Horse Mountain.
I hope you bloody get this message.
Look, what's that?
We're actually on the lookout.
Holly and I hear the boys say
they're exactly east of
this mountain and south of this one,
and we just throw the stick around
and we race over.
..information, so can you?
- Yes!
- OK, we got it, we got it!
It's OK, we got it!
- They got it.
- Oh, they got it?
Yes. That's awesome.
It was a miracle.
And I don't usually believe
in miracles. It was a miracle.
Oh, here we go. It's ringing.
So we are on top of
Wild Horse Scenic Lookout.
OK, it's that one.
Let's just try. We're going to try.
Hang on a minute, we're going to try.
- Yes.
- We got you, we got you.
- We got you, we got you.
- They've got it, yeah, yeah.
But we're last.
So now we've got to wait. Argh!
We're in front of Dolor and Chris,
though.
We've got
But they went to the lady
before we did.
And, unfortunately, by the time
we had finally communicated,
Chris and Dolor had made
their phone call
and pinpointed their location.
Today's choice of intersection
partners was great.
We all worked really well together.
The Cowboys are definitely
our strongest alliance.
Definitely good to have friends
in high places.
Awesome, how exciting.
Oh, road block.
A road block is a challenge
that only one team member
must choose to complete,
based on a cryptic clue.
In this next challenge,
teams must come down here
to Templeton Ginger Farm,
who grow and supply
Bundaberg Brewed drinks
with some of the highest
quality ginger in the country.
Teams will have to dig
a five-metre square plot of ginger
where they must pick, clean
and sort to the high standards
of Bundaberg Brewed Drinks
founder Cliff Fleming.
And if he likes what he sees,
he'll give them the thumbs up
and the next clue.
- How's that, Cliff?
- There's the thumbs up, Beau.
And there's the next clue.
Let's keep this lead.
Today, It was my turn for a road block
and we just made a quick decision
that I'll be doing it.
- Road block.
- "Who's a ginger ninja?"
That's you, boy!
- Do we go that way?
- No, that's a dead end, babe.
OK.
We got there!
Thank you very much.
Road block.
- "Who's a ginger ninja?" Me. Let's go.
- You got it. You got it.
"Who's a ginger ninja?"
I'm a ginger ninja!
You're a ginger ninja!
OK, so we're heading south,
getting onto the Bruce Highway.
Left?
Yeah, go left. Yeah, yeah.
We've got all the directions
that we need?
You should be crossing a lake soon.
We've still got a lot of catching
up to do, Skye,
but I definitely prefer
being in the top four of the pack
than the bottom four of the pack,
that's for sure.
There's been talk that we want
the four teams -
ourselves, Ashleigh and Amanda,
the Sikhs and the Cowboys -
the Originals, we want
That's what we're calling ourselves.
Yeah, the Originals to be final four.
At this point,
we're willing to help each other
to make sure that happens.
At this stage in the game,
with eight teams still around,
we want to also have that majority
and have control of the game,
hopefully.
Alright.
I'm just not sure that Chris
and I have placed ourselves
strategically in a good spot
by working with Holly and Dolor.
We may have regretted
that decision later.
- "Who's a ginger ninja?" I do.
- You like ginger.
You're the ginger ninja.
Road block. "Who's a ginger ninja?"
- I am.
- Yeah. Perfect.
Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
- Is this sky diving?
- I don't know.
What do you reckon?
- You've got to do road blocks.
- OK, I am.
- Which way do I go?
- I don't know.
I feel like this isn't
the normal way to go.
Do you reckon we've gone too far?
That's why I'm freaking out.
How did this happen?
- Wait a second. Oh, wow!
- No-one's here.
So we were wholeheartedly expecting
to get to this farm third,
but we got there
and there was no-one else there.
Again, guess what we realised.
We made it,
then everybody else got lost,
or we found a better way there.
Let's go, Jas. You got this, yeah?
There was a five-metre area marked out
where I had to go through,
take out the ginger,
remove all the dirt, remove the roots,
make sure it was all in one piece
and put it into a new bucket.
Sounds simple.
The only problem was
there was five square metres of it.
There was a lot of ginger.
Come on, Jas, you got this, bro.
You got this. Come on.
Brendon rocked up.
I knew he was a cowboy,
I knew he's been farming
and he would be really good at this.
If I can come out of this challenge
beating a cowboy
who farms every day,
and me, who sits behind
a computer every day,
this would make me feel awesome.
I need to beat a cowboy at farming.
Cheers.
Keep going, Jas,
you're doing really well.
Come on, Bren! When you get it done,
you get a ginger beer.
- You are the ginger ninja.
- Enough out of you, mate!
Called me a ginger ninja.
I'm strawberry blond, I'm not red.
Good work, good work.
Be thorough, Bren. You're going good!
- Come on, Jake!
- Come on, Jake!
- Top three.
- Top three here. Let's go!
At that point, it was just
the Cowboys and Jas and Anurag.
But the girls who were ahead of us
are nowhere to be seen.
Let's go, Skye!
You're good at this stuff!
- Where are we now?
- We're still on the 70.
What do I do, Amanda?
Um
Let's let's take this exit.
This is, like, the worst directions
that we've ever done.
We were just so lost.
And I knew we were so far
in the wrong direction.
We were just both really,
really frustrated
and upset at the situation.
We knew we had a huge lead
and we just knew all of that was
disintegrating in front of us.
And we didn't even know
if we were still in first place
or if we were in last.
This is so terrible.
We finally finished the intersection
and we're running last.
We were so worried about being
eliminated.
Road block.
- OK, "Who's a ginger ninja?" You?
- Yeah, let's go.
- I'll do the ginger ninja.
- Let's get out of here.
After we'd both left the hangar,
we both knew it was between us
and them.
Let's go!
And as much as we loved each other,
it was just game on.
- I'll drive, you direct!
- Yeah.
Here.
You're going good, Bren! Be thorough.
Let's go, Skye, keep going!
Check, please.
Well done, mate.
Finished the road block before Brendon.
It made me feel amazing.
- Thank you very much.
- Very good. There's your next clue.
Alright, good, good!
A detour.
A detour is a choice
between two challenges,
each with its own pros and cons.
In this detour, teams will decide
between cuckoo or candy.
Teams that choose cuckoo
will need to come here
to Australia's
largest cuckoo clock shop
in the historic mountain village
of Montville.
They must then search
for a specially marked door
with a German flag in amongst
hundreds of chiming cuckoo clocks.
Teams that choose candy must stretch,
roll and hand-shape
four perfect lollipops.
But they'd better hurry,
if the candy sets,
it becomes unworkable.
- Which one?
- Cuckoo. OK, let's go.
- There's a red flag.
- Oh, my God! Yes, babe!
- Have we just found it?
- We just found it.
I was actually pretty stoked
to do this challenge
because I know
that I can work really fast
and I will make up a lot of time
that we lost
with our directions today.
Hi, girl!
Hello. Hello.
Get it all done, Amanda!
You got this!
We were getting rooty today
with the ginger.
Never seen so many roots in my life.
Oh, good.
Can you see Holly and Dolor
still behind us?
- Yeah, they're still behind us.
- OK.
I love Chris and Aleisha, you know.
We formed a good alliance from
the very beginning, you know,
it's really paying off right now.
We're just following
We're just tailgating them
to the next place.
They're having a pretty
pretty nice day.
We told them to go get directions
and they didn't.
They just followed us, which is fine
- Oh, there it is.
- Beautiful!
White, white, white.
There you are, bro, keep going!
Nearly there! Nearly there.
Quick tidy-up.
Righto, mate, I'll get it
checked again too, please.
- Happy? Thank you very much.
- Well done. Well done, fellas.
- Thank you, very much, mate.
- Thank you, very much. Appreciate it.
Good job. Hard job.
Alright, there's your next clue.
- Thank you. Appreciate it.
- Thank you.
There you go. Detour.
Detour.
- What do you wanna do? Cuckoo?
- Yeah, we'll go cuckoo. Let's go.
We got a storm coming, Skye!
You really need to go.
Yeah, I know. Jake, I know.
Doing my best.
Go, Dolor!
Oh, this is real hard work.
These challenges are not
my skill set at all.
New team's here, Skye!
- It's the girls, it's the girls.
- The girls are here, Dolor!
This is the time, then, Jake! Crack in!
When we got there,
we were so surprised,
there was four other teams.
Thought, "Wow, we're actually
still in this."
Just ask for a check, Amanda!
Yes, yes! Yay, you got this!
Yep, good, OK.
I'm going to help Skye.
Five minutes, a couple of minutes.
We could probably call it
an official alliance
with Skye and Jake, the Cowboys
and the Sikhs,
we kind of call ourselves
the original foursome.
You've got Amanda helping you!
Let's get out of here!
Yeah.
It's a massive gift
and it's not something
that Amanda would do for anyone.
Amanda's amazing.
Was not expecting that at all.
Yes, Skye.
There's definitely a lot
of teams playing the game.
I don't know why everybody
is not playing smart.
They're playing a weird, weird game
where they keep wanting these other
tough teams to be with them.
You want people with you
that you can beat.
Ashleigh and Amanda
are the biggest threats here.
- Alright, you got it from here?
- Yeah. Thank you so much.
- You're awesome, Amanda.
- Thank you!
Detour.
- Cuckoo. Let's go.
- Cuckoo?
How does it look, Skye?
Let's go, let's go!
That's it. Let's get a check.
- Congratulations. You've got a pass.
- Thank you very much.
Thank you.
- There's your new clue.
- Thank you so much.
Thank you. Thank you.
I reckon cuckoo is going to be easier.
- Cuckoo? OK, whatever you want.
- Yeah.
Holy, Jesus, look at the storm brewing!
That's just even more motivation
to get done.
What's this sign up here?
Are we in Montville?
- Straight?
- No, no, I see 70 coming up.
I've taken the exit now, Jas.
We were lost at that point
and we had no idea of our bearings.
I need to figure out where we're going.
We don't wanna lose this lead.
This is going to be slippery.
Welcome to the Clock Shop.
- Thank you very much.
- Thank you.
- The shop's yours!
- Thanks.
The walls were just
full of clocks everywhere.
I mean everywhere.
We had to wait for the cuckoo clock
to come open.
Inside one of the doors
there was a marking.
Have a look.
We were looking around
and there's one going this way.
And I would see there's
nothing on that door.
There's noises left, right and centre.
This challenge is going to be
a really hard one to nail.
It's not these two.
Keep going, baby. You want a check?
- Yeah. Get one, quick!
- OK!
Yes!
- Alright, it's a detour.
- OK. Detour.
- What do you think?
- Cuckoo, let's do cuckoo.
- OK. Let's go.
- Dolor, are you close?
OK, cool.
- It's all the way down there.
- Yeah. Let's go.
Let's go, bro! Come on. Let's do it.
Catch up.
Check, please.
- Detour.
- Let's do cuckoo.
Cuckoo, OK, let's go.
Good luck, guys.
Get it. Get it!
Well done, boys. Well done, boys!
Let's go, MJ! The boys are here now!
How did you guys go?
We did our typical get lost, you know,
and drove around
the whole Queensland scenic route.
- Oh, mate!
- Yeah.
You had to be quick
with your eyes, though.
You only got two seconds until
it goes back in and the door shuts.
So you had to be really on the ball,
very quick.
- Yeah, there.
- There?
That flag, black, red and yellow.
Excuse me, mate.
Is it black, red and yellow?
- Yes.
- Aha! Happy days.
For a bloke that can't tell the
time, I think we did alright.
You could
The clue is in the car.
- Thank you very much.
- Thank you. Thank you.
And thanks to
Telstra, the teams will find
a surprise message from home
in their cars
to give them speed and strength
for the rest of the race.
What's the Ipad for?
Hey, Bren!
Just wanted to say how proud
we are of you
- for everything you've achieved.
- Look at the big fella.
Coltyn and Wyatt are the luckiest
boys to have a father like you
and you're a true inspiration to them.
Yee-ha!
Yee-ha, Daddy!
Mate, he's unreal.
He's a beautiful little boy, he is.
Hey, Jacko.
Just dropping in to tell you
our little boy is lucky
to have such a great role model
as his dad
and I will be proud
if he grows up to be the man
that you are today.
To see that message was just, yeah,
emotional.
- Proper.
- Very emotional for us.
See you at the finish line.
We love you.
Brendon, Jackson, get to pit stop now.
Beau is waiting for you. Quick!
Teams must make their way
to Maleny Botanical Gardens
and Bird World,
home to over 700 native
and exotic birds
from around the world.
And it is the perfect place
for the pit stop
of the 14th leg of
The Amazing Race Australia.
Good girl. Are you gonna hang out?
Do you wanna hang out?
Oh, oh, oh, oh, OK.
- Righto.
- Let's go to pit stop. Come on, man.
The reason why we're on this race
is 'cause
we're doing this for our family.
For our little boys.
You all good? You all good?
Yeah, yeah.
All the way to the pit stop,
brother, like they said.
That was cool. We needed something
like that to keep us,
- like, keep pushing us forward.
- Keep your head in the game.
Keep your head in the game.
Remember what we're here for.
Just so lucky to have
such a supportive family.
Just gives you that extra kick-on
that we need every day.
Definitely.
It's emotional, but that's the whole
reason we're here, isn't it, Bren?
That's it.
We just keep pushing at the end
until we come first.
Oh, we're in Germany! Hello.
In this detour, we had to find
a cuckoo clock
with something hidden behind it.
- Hey, guys!
- Did you guys get lost?
Yeah.
Oh, my God. There's so many clocks.
This is going to take forever.
We can work together.
Let's split the store.
This is gonna drive me crazy.
The rain's coming.
- Yes, MJ!
- Check.
Thanks. Thanks. Good luck.
Hey, guys, well done.
There's your next job.
Cool. Thank you so much!
Detour. We're still in this.
"Candy. Create four perfect lollipops."
- Let's just do candy.
- OK. Right, let's do it. Let's go.
Keep it up, Wayne. Good job.
See, the girls might make a mistake
or Dolor and Holly won't fire
in front of us, so fingers crossed.
Oh, my God, there's so many clocks.
The Sikhs were in this clock shop
at the same time as us.
Everyone's yelling, being like,
"Run over to this clock!"
- Go and check that one.
- "No, that one."
It was a dysfunctional
but functional family.
And it's only going to be
cuckoo clocks, yeah?
- This one! We've got it!
- Oh, yeah.
OK, three, two, one, let's go!
We know what it is, we know what it is.
- Is it the German flag?
- Yes.
- Yes!
- Where's the clue?
- Your next clue is in the car.
- Thank you so much, let's go!
- Oh, my God. There's an iPad.
- Why is there two?
OK. Alright, let's open it.
- Hi, Amanda!
- Oh, my God. Oh, my God!
I hope you guys are
absolutely killing it.
We have so much trust in you.
We miss you a lot
and can't wait to
can't wait to see you.
What's Dan's moustache?
That's your grandmother.
Come on, you can do it!
- You are our shining stars!
- Go, Super Sikhs!
In our culture,
family means everything.
You are amazing!
So being able to see our families
on that iPad
was just mind-blowing.
Here they come! Here they come!
Welcome to Glass House Mountain.
- Thank you very much. Thank you.
- Thank you.
Sorry about the hail, boys!
It is what it is.
Brendon and Jackson,
you are first team to check in.
We've got a little surprise for you.
Because you're first in,
you've won a first-class pass.
- Beauty.
- Beautiful!
Thank you very much.
That means you won't be competing
in the next leg,
but, more importantly,
you cannot get eliminated next leg.
But also, you'll have to serve
a salvage and a sabotage
to the final two teams who check in.
A salvage
..will give someone
a massive advantage.
Thank you, Ruby. And a sabotage
will severely slow someone down.
The choice is yours.
Someone's future is in your hands.
Top effort, boys.
You've got a big decision to make.
Please stand to the side of the mat.
Chris also agrees how
Amanda and Ashleigh have, like,
the Super Sikhs and the Cowboys
wrapped round their little finger.
Yeah.
We are on the minority. They are
100% all working together now.
We've got our Originals
alliance now, Skye.
I think that's what we've got
to stick to.
That means we have to play our hand.
We help them and only them.
Yeah.
I think we are one of
the quicker teams on this race.
- Good. How are you?
- Good, thank you very much.
Holy wow.
If we can jump that
one or two places today,
I think it'll put us
in a really good position
to win the whole thing.
I reckon it's this one. I think
I've seen red, yellow and black.
- Hello.
- How are you?
- Good, thank you.
- Welcome.
Jake noticed the clock very quickly,
just as Chris and Aleisha walked in.
Look around a bit.
We were sort of looking over
at some other clocks
to sort of potentially
throw them off the scent.
Aleisha and Chris, they are the team
that I do not trust
out of absolutely anyone.
Let's just Let's ask.
They'll happily try and snag
something from underneath you.
They're just the fakest people here.
Like, and I can see
straight through them.
And it's got red, yellow and black
inside the doors.
Yes.
Did Skye and Jake just do it then?
- That was quick. That was good.
- That was really quick.
Killed it, Jake! Killed it!
- Where did Skye and Jake go?
- Do you think they got the answer?
- Or maybe they changed detour?
- I think they changed.
I think they changed. It
didn't sound like they got it.
Yeah.
So we managed to get in and out
of there very, very quickly,
and then heading off to the car,
which is where our next clue was.
- Is that Dad?
- I think that's Dad.
Take 24.
Hey, Baby Blue! Hey, Jake!
Just want to let youse know
that we miss you like crazy.
- Is she going to cry?
- ..but very, very proud of you.
I think she might.
We love youse so much, and
Yeah, I knew it, I'm crying.
Really proud of you guys.
I miss you so much.
Got someone else that probably
wants to say hello to you.
Oh! It's Ollie.
We really miss you guys!
Got a clue for you guys!
Get to the pit stop now.
Let's go.
I thought
this challenge was impossible.
The cuckoo clocks,
there was this little bird
would pop out for a second.
- Oh, I've got one.
- They go so quick.
This could be really time-consuming.
Aleisha was running around like crazy
whenever she'd hear a bird come out.
I was just trying to be quick,
you know?
- We were there for so long.
- Too long.
I felt a bit cuckoo.
There's another team arriving.
- Who's arriving?
- It's Holly and Dolor.
We've been here 20 minutes.
Thinking of changing detours.
This is real hard,
and time-consuming as well.
We had a pretty critical decisions
to make. Do we switch challenges?
I was so stressed.
We just had to hurry up.
Let's go, Wayne! It's good!
It's refreshing, this rain!
If we get the opportunity
to overtake the Sikhs, we will
because we found the clock.
Now, the other question is
the girls might be behind us.
They found it, not us.
Do we let them take this place?
No.
We're here on a race.
We're here to win 250K.
But there are certain people
you can work with
to get you into the finale
and then you race your own race.
And that is the game
that we're trying to play.
We can do it, bro, we can do it.
- We can get there.
- Let's go, come on!
Ready, set, go!
- This way?
- Straight up.
Up there. Up there.
Jaskirat and Anurag,
you are second team to check in.
Well done.
Ashleigh and Amanda, you are
the third team to check in, girls!
Thank you!
Now go rest and recover and go have
a ginger beer from Bundaberg.
Thank you so much!
Hello.
OK, thank you.
We decided to go with candy.
Take that. Stretch the candy
over the hook.
"You must work quickly to ensure
the candy doesn't cool."
We only have to make
two lollipops each.
- There you go, Chelse.
- We'll smash this.
Yeah, great decision, that was.
Loop it back over the hook.
So you want to make it
about 30cm and then
Like that?
Is that what we
Don't think so. It's gone too hard.
This challenge is pretty hard.
I think it's too thick.
I think we chose the wrong detour.
I went crazy here a little bit.
Cuckoo! Cuckoo!
So, alright, we'll look together?
We've been here 20 minutes,
we can't find it.
If we find it, we'll give it to you.
- OK. Yeah, same.
- So we'll work together on this one.
Yeah.
We wanted to help out Chris
and Aleisha. They're great people.
We're in alliance with them.
Now there's four people now.
We should get it.
- Yeah.
- Should get it.
Baby, what do you think?
If we all work together, though,
we can cover more time.
If they get it, they will tell us.
- If we get it, we tell them.
- This is too hard.
No, we can just tell them.
So we're thinking of going,
doing the other one.
Shall we do the other one?
I'll give it two more minutes.
I feel lucky today.
Yeah, we're changing.
Please be this one!
Do you want to check it?
The big one at the back
has a German flag inside of it.
- Yes.
- Oh, my God!
When we did actually get the clock,
I was so excited.
We knew we'd beat the other teams
who switched detours.
Hi, Holly and Dolor!
We are so proud of
how far you've both come.
- We miss you!
- Oh, wow.
We have something special for you.
Go, Dolor, go ♪
- That was beautiful. That was beautiful.
- That was so cute. Oh, my God, I'm crying.
- Alright, let's do it for them.
- OK, let's go. Let's go. Let's go.
- Hello. Go on through.
- Hello.
We spent so much time
at the cuckoo clocks,
but this demo looks totally doable.
I think we can nail this.
- Got the idea?
- Yeah. Thank you.
- He wasn't taking it off.
- I'm doing it just the way he did it.
OK.
We're coming fifth now.
Wow. Well done, babe!
We even said to Chris and Aleisha,
you should just stay with us,
and if we get an answer,
we'll show it to you.
And then they just left. I don't know.
We've been like in alliance all day.
I thought they would have
at least stayed.
They should have stuck with us -
the smart players.
I think I'm going pretty well,
but I'm still behind everyone else.
- Let's go, Wayne!
- Check.
- Do you want to do candy?
- Candy.
Let's do candy. Let's go.
That way.
Up here.
Thank you, Bella. Sky-Blue and Jake,
you are the fourth team to check in.
Great work.
Holly and Dolor, you are
the fifth team to check in.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
- You guys just keep turning up, eh?
- Yeah.
- And that's all you've got to do.
- Exactly.
- Good job, man.
- Thank you.
And then there were three.
Big decision, boys.
Big decision. Big decision.
Whoever comes in next
could change the whole race.
- Left, Montville.
- Montville left.
This must be Flaxton, I'm assuming?
No signs.
The directions kill us
every single time.
Yeah, we're horrible with directions.
I think we need to keep
our eyes peeled. We don't
- Yeah.
- We don't look enough.
Keep hunting, Wayne. We've got to really
switch on and stay in the game now.
Hopefully, someone's made
a mistake, an error.
I can't cook and I hate
being in the kitchen.
It was a really, really tough challenge
and MJ and Chelsea
were kind of neck and neck with us.
- OK, cool. Happy with that?
- Yeah, happy with that.
Now go from the centre. Yeah.
And then when Chris and I finally
worked out exactly how to do it,
the girls can see what we were doing
and they almost immediately
copied as well.
We couldn't hide our work from them,
just meant it was neck and neck
getting out of the candy shop.
- Which ones do you want to check?
- This one's better.
This one? Yeah, okay.
Yeah, well, let's go.
- Hello.
- Can you turn them around a bit?
Sure can.
- Thank you, thank you, thank you!
- Thank you so much.
Really careful. Really,
really careful, OK?
Yeah.
- Yep.
- Yes. Oh, my gosh. Thank you. Thank you.
Chris and Aleisha are about a minute
in front of us. It was close.
We're definitely
the last two teams, babe.
I think we're in last position.
There were no cars in the car park.
I don't know. I don't have
a good feeling right now.
Oh, my gosh.
I hear you. I feel a little bit
deflated and stuff as well.
I think we're going home.
But there's also, in a positive light,
potentially them boys
have been getting lost all day.
1 k on right.
- It's so hard to see.
- Yeah.
Car park out the back.
- There it is, there's the flag.
- There's the flag!
So we knew we left the candy shop
before the AFL girls,
and we knew we could get
to the pit stop before them,
and then it might be a bit
of a foot race.
- This is heavy.
- Yeah, this is really crazy rain.
If we come to an intersection,
go right.
I can't Please trust me.
There's this one intersection,
that it was almost impossible to see
it on the map
and we turned left accidentally
instead of right.
There was stress, rain,
and we knew that could have just
cost us the whole race.
OK.
Which way?
This way.
- Boys
- Hey.
It's actually good to see you.
MJ and Chelsea, you are
..sixth team to check in.
You're in!
Watch the bird, watch the bird.
- Hello, buddy!
- Good job!
- Good job, mate.
- Well done.
Nice spot.
- Hey, mate.
- Hey, guys, we're closed.
But the directions to the next
pit stop are in your car.
When I saw the detour,
and both the places were closed,
when you're contemplating
elimination, you sink down a bit.
- You just feel this sense of
- Last place.
Yeah, last place.
It's not a good feeling.
Hey, everyone.
Chris and Aleisha, you are
seventh team to check in.
- Yeah.
- OK, cool. Cool. Not last.
Yeah.
But because you are the second-last
team to check in
and the boys have a salvage
and a sabotage to serve,
you must remain with me on the mat.
- Yeah.
- The boys have got a decision to make.
- Are you feeling alright?
- No.
- Talk to me. What's up?
- Tough day, Beau.
The first teams had so much hustle
and they're all working together
and helping each other,
and we just can't catch a break.
The boys have made it pretty clear
that they don't help us.
They help other teams any way
and every way that they can
and they never help us out.
And we've been through
this bottom two before,
and it's hard.
- You don't want to go home, do you?
- No.
So the drive into the pit stop
was pretty gut-wrenching.
At that point,
what was going through my mind was
we were last and we were going home.
What's this?
Finally, Stan and Wayne,
you are the last team to check in.
Oh!
However, boys, this is
a predetermined non-elimination leg.
You're getting used to that.
Now, Brendon and Jackson
checked in first.
They won a first-class pass,
but, more importantly,
the right to serve a salvage
and a sabotage
to the final two teams
who checked in, you guys.
Alright, boys, over to you.
Brendon and Jackson,
who do you choose to sabotage?
Chris and Aleisha. No hard feelings.
You've overcome it before.
You're the biggest threat here.
Even though we knew it was coming,
it still
It still hurts a lot
when you hear those words
and when they say "no hard
feelings", it's like
Stan and Wayne,
hopefully this helps you out.
- Thanks.
- Cheers, boys.
I'm hoping that the salvage
is 100% GPS.
- GPS.
- Then we'll be sweet.
- I think we could go up to first.
- We need a GPS.
Can someone please give
us a GPS, seriously?
Please give us a GPS.
Next time on The
Amazing Race Australia
get your motor running!
Yay-hey-hey!
Whoo!
We're pushing pedal to the metal
Brisbane!
- ..in Brisbane, where the salvage
- Boo-ya!
..and sabotage are revealed.
Oh, my God, I can't do that!
Then in a tower of terror
- Why didn't you?
- That's not right.
..one race favourite
One mistake and the race
is quickly over for you.
..will be eliminated.
Your time in the race is over.
