The Amazing Race Australia (2011) s06e06 Episode Script
Season 6, Episode 6
Previously on
the Amazing Race Australia
On the island of Santorini
Make sure we get on
the right side of the road.
Oh, shit.
..surrounded by the sea
I think I'm gonna die.
..and stairs.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
..Heath and Toni claimed
their first win.
First team to check in.
But Tiffany and Cynthia
Fully resigned
that we were in last place.
..had the best news of the day.
This is a predetermined
Non-Elimination Leg.
Oh, stop.
No way.
Tonight,
Kathy and Chace are isolating
and in Arachova,
a storm is brewing.
We've just been told that
there's a blizzard on the way.
This is unprecedented.
And things
How did you guys do it?
Get big, icy chunks.
..get frosty.
That's not fair.
That's not
Everyone's evacuated.
We have to get to the bottom ASAP.
But which team
No! The wind!
..won't make it
to the church on time?
Your time on the race is over.
This is the Amazing Race Australia.
Our 15 teams have made their way
from Santorini to "Ara-CHO-va"
"Ara-KO-va".
"A-RA-ho-VA"!
A quaint little mountain town nestled
in the foothills of Mount Parnassus,
one of the only mountains in Europe
you can ski down
with views of the sea.
Plus, according to Greek mythology,
is sacred to the Greek god Apollo.
With an altitude of 2,260 metres,
it's the snow-covered location
for the sixth leg of
the Amazing Race Australia.
Bring glovesand a jacket.
"Route Info."
"Find the Church of St George"
"Where you will take part in
a traditional Greek wedding."
Opa! Now, I love a good wedding,
especially a big Greek one.
Teams will have to find
the Church of St George
and to get there,
they will climb an exhausting
264 stairs in thin mountain air.
Once at the top, teams must dress
as a bride and groom,
and in keeping with Greek tradition,
10,000 euros must be pinned
to the bride's dress by the groom.
Pretty expensive, eh?
If the bride can spin three times
with no notes falling off,
they'll receive their next clue.
I might hang around
to pick up some money, you know,
'cause I've got bills
and kids and stuff.
Anyway, teams are being released
in the order they arrived
at the previous Pit Stop.
And then right.
Jesus.
Whoa, there's a burn already.
Let's go.
My quads are burning!
They're so sore.
They want to kill us.
This is mean.
Back-to-back-to-back stairs.
Which was really hard
because yesterday,
we did the donkey challenge
..with just as many steps,
if not more.
Come on!
Keep this up.
Come on.
Gab
Come on! Come on!
I just felt like
the start of hell,
but even though
we were going to a church.
These stairs, man.
Automatically, I was having PTSD.
I was, "Oh, my God,
where's the donkey?!"
I just wanted the donkey
to drag me up.
Good. That's it. Push, babe.
We certainly won't have a grand
entrance like this to our wedding,
that's for sure.
Here. Oh, Jesus.
Oh, no.
Jodie
Unfortunately for Jodie and I,
you know, we are of
that lovely middle-aged spread.
So cruel.
We don't spring back
like the young 20-year-olds.
Here we go. Flag's there.
Oh, nah.
Oh, jeez.
OK. This is where
we can get the upper hand.
Yeah.
The boys are rattling away,
aren't we?
Come on, come on, come on.
Damn, there's a few stairs here.
I'll grab it for a bit.
I've struggled myself.
Imagine having half the size legs.
Like, I can just see
how hard it would be.
I never wanna see stairs again.
Never-ending, eh?
OK.
Almost there.
Yep.
This is where we get married, Tones.
I reckon it is, babe.
Here? Change.
Yeah. Yeah.
You're the bride. Get some gear on.
What the hell is that thing?
It's to put under your skirt.
With the traditional, I'd be
the bride, he'd be the groom, no.
It's best if we do it the other way
around and he just stands there
and then I do the tacking on
of the money onto the dress.
What one looks good, Tones?
Babe, just get one on!
Is there one with a zip on the back?
I think I look, like, stunning.
Like, really, look how good I look.
"Continue anticlockwise
to the ceremony area."
Right. Come on, bride.
You gotta do all them?
Well, I'm not gonna do half, am I?
Where's the thumbtack?
Justjust
Yeah.
Yeah?
A lot of notes, babe.
Too many to count.
I knew it would be kinda tricksy.
You had to do a few little turns
and if we lost some cash,
we'd be doing it all again,
so it was ridiculously hard.
In through the note, into the dress
and then back out again.
Is that one on properly?
Yes, darling.
Oh.
Please just let me work.
Mori.
Come on.
Let's go. You got this.
We're nearly there.
Good, guys?
Yeah, we're good.
Everyone all good?
Sometimes you need someone turning
back and saying, "Let's go.
"Let's get up these stairs."
We are competitors,
but right now, let's help
each other out while we can
and maybe have our besties
at the end of the line with us.
Bag drop here.
Where's the larger size?
Oh!
Oh, sugar.
This is beautiful.
Wow.
OK, let's go, G.
So pretty.
We're here.
Mori, I'm feeling like
it's my wedding all over again,
but I finally get to be a bride.
This was exactly what you wore
on our wedding day.
This was my fantasy.
I had to wear a suit. Eugh!
Let's go.
I feel so good!
I feel like Julia Roberts
in 'Runaway Bride'.
Oh, you look stunning!
This one? What's the biggest one?
How do you put one of these on?
Come on, hon, be self-sufficient.
I'm trying to
get myself dressed too.
Well, how am I gonna get this
in there?
Just be slow, bro!
Do I have to wear a hat thing?
There's people with hats on.
Yeah, get a hat. OK, let's go.
Ah!
Yeah!
Oh, baby! Made it to the wedding.
It's the big day!
We're getting married!
Bag drop. Let's go.
- OK, find a big dress.
- This is nice and pretty.
Yeah, you're gonna look good in it.
Frankie straightaway was, like,
"I'll be the bride."
And I was,
like, "OK, then."
Only because I think she'll be good
with In terms of pinning.
She always wanted to be
a fashion designer.
Ooh!
Oh, my gosh.
It's all coming together.
I'm trying to get dressed
into my suit
and this guy is playing the ultimate
role of being the bride.
This is coming together well.
You look beautiful!
Oh, thank you!
Thank you.
Who, me or him?
Can you just button me up?
Are you ready to marry me?
No!
Let's go!
I'm not ready to marry you.
Nah. How do these women do it?
Let's go, Frankie.
Ooh! We're finally getting married.
Funny that you're the girl
and I'm the guy.
That's a lot of cash
you gotta pin, eh?
A lot of notes. Fiddly.
Just trying to keep my fingers warm
'cause it's bloody snowing
at the moment.
I feel like I'm in that movie
'Muriel's Wedding'.
Let's go, honey.
Let's go, G.
Hold the front up, yeah.
There we go!
I look so good.
- Hello, hello!
- Hey, girlfriend.
Hello, fellow bride!
Whose idea is it
to bloody put money on a dress?
Loving it, eh?
I ain't no dressmaker. Argh!
Be handy to have my alterations lady
right now. She'd be a queen at this.
Finding a dress at 4'3"
isn't really that easy.
It's all just falling!
I have achondroplasia,
a form of dwarfism.
I've always been able to adapt
to any situation
and it's brought me
awesome life experiences.
I've represented Australia
at the World Dwarf Games.
It was an unreal feeling, really,
like, knowing what
you can actually do
when you put your mind to it.
You got the technique?
Got the technique down pat.
That's good. We're right now.
In
Yep. Nice.
Just go slowly.
You know what helps going up stairs?
Does it?
Place is gorgeous.
It's, like, you know,
them little toy shop-looking places,
but this place is
obsessed with stairs.
I just can't do it.
Come on. We gotta go.
It's the backpack.
So, get that
Argh!
Aah!
So, is this what you thought
our wedding would be like, babe?
This is exactly how I thought
my wedding would be,
people just pinning money
to my dress.
So, thank you, Amazing Race.
'Cause I didn't give him this.
'Cause he did not give me
a wedding dress.
Well, it is our 10-year anniversary.
Can we keep these dresses?
You look so funny!
Our wedding was
only four months ago,
so it's a bit different
to our initial wedding.
I think Georgia might even
look better, I'm not gonna lie.
Sorry, I didn't cry
when I saw you in that dress.
Yeah, I know.
Definitely no way I thought
we were gonna be getting married
in snow, babe.
A beautiful white wedding.
Yeah!
She's already writing down her vows,
like, in preparation.
I think, after today, we might've
just got legally married.
We don't really know.
Yeah, we're not really sure.
Maybe the three spins
is how you certify it.
Yeah, I'm not sure.
Well, it's the third time round
for me in a wedding dress,
so I should be a professional
at this.
I know when it rains it's good luck.
That's happened to me before
and I'm still no longer married,
so maybe snow's gonna be our luck?
- Bag drop there.
- Yeah.
Last leg, we came last.
And Beau told us
it's a Non-Elimination Round,
which means we are still in the race.
We have to screw our heads on
and get this done
because we need to make up time.
What am I missing?
Pants.
Stop it!
Good old southwester.
No, the wind!
Shoot! Shoot! Can you get that?
Ooh, it's gonna fly, hon!
It's gonna fly, hon!
Quick, Lil!
Whoa!
Ooh.
Oh, money's flying!
Whoa! There's some pins everywhere.
This wind.
What? Jamus
The wind will blow the money away.
Just relax.
I'm just trying to ask you.
You said it a hundred times.
You just look out, enjoy the view.
What if it blows the money away?
I'll be blowing it in a minute.
That's the only thing
that will be blowing.
Coming up
We've just been told that
there's a blizzard on the way.
..Mother Nature has shown
she's in full control.
This is unprecedented.
So, let's hope it clears
or we might not be able to finish
this leg of the race.
You're killing this, babe.
We had to dress up
as a bride and groom
and the groom had to pin
all the notes to the wedding dress.
- Your mum's a seamstress.
- Yes, she is.
She would make wedding dresses.
She's a machine
and that's why I'm a machine too.
I feel like a real seamstress.
I'm gonna take some pins
because I ran out for my scarf.
Turn around.
Uh! Uh-uh-uh-uh.
I pin my scarf every day
and I knew
people would be sticking the pin in.
Ahh!
Ohh!
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
I pricked myself.
Oww!
Arrgh! Gosh.
Sorry.
Sorry.
Arrgh!
So I slid the pin in one side,
out the other.
I'm not joking. These are literally
the exact ones that I use.
I'll put it in my pocket for you.
Rack some pins.
Can I steal from the church?
Oh, they're wet too.
I'm a practising Muslim.
My parents raised me that way.
Our religion dictates a lot of
what we do in our day-to-day lives.
But it doesn't limit us. I don't
think either religion limits us.
No, it certainly doesn't.
My whole life, people tried
to put me in a box, the Muslim girl.
I'm a Cancer with a Leo rising,
so
Yeah.
..I've got the best of both worlds.
Vinny.
Yeah?
Look around and see
how the other teams are going?
We might be a little bit behind.
Oh. Bloody hell.
What do you think about
this folding-the-note technique?
Um
I think folding these notes
are gonna help provide tension
on the note itself
and I hope it's less likely
to fall off.
Do you think it's causing us
a bit more time?
I think a note just fell off.
This note pile is just never ending
and it's snowing.
Oh, wow, Frankie,
you look lovely.
Thank you. I feel lovely, T.
Do you feel pretty?
I feel beautiful.
You look stunning.
I love how all the couples
put the man in the dress.
One old fellow
was staring at us on his roof.
Hello!
You need a husband?
No, thanks.
OK. Right.
I'm having my moment.
It's finally happening.
- Oh, shoot, the boys are done.
- Yeah?
How the hell?
Damn, they're fast.
Swish! The wind.
The wind.
One, two and three.
Whoo!
Whoo!
Thank you!
Gracias. Thank you!
Mwah!
She's running.
Oh, she's such a mystery.
I don't want you anymore.
Oh.
Oh!
"I don't want you anymore."
OK, "Route Info."
"Route Info."
"Drop a snow bomb onto a specific
target to receive your next clue."
OK, let's go.
This is gonna be fun!
Teams must travel
on one of two buses
to the peak of Mount Parnassus,
collect snow bombs
and board the chairlifts.
When teams successfully drop
one snow bomb into the target below,
they'll receive their next clue.
They'll need to hurry, though,
there's only room for eight teams
on the first bus to the chairlifts
and bus two can't leave
until the last team is on board.
- You crushed that, Mori.
- Yeah, we did.
Well, you did. I just stood there
and looked pretty.
One to go.
Go.
Wow.
How beautiful is that?
How did they pin it that quickly?
Well done, Tones.
Yay!
Yes! Thank you so much.
"Drop a snow bomb into a specific
target to receive your next clue."
That's awesome. Let's go.
Let's go.
Hold on. Go.
Thank you.
Whoo-hoo!
Babe, one more.
And a kiss for the bride.
Success.
Thank you.
So, we have four teams ahead of us.
Are they still pinning?
First bus, girls.
Oh, it's easy going down.
I have no idea
where we're sitting right now.
It's alright, we just have to be
one of the first eight teams.
Slow and steady
wins the race.
Come on, come on.
The wind.
Yeah, it's all good. Look at you.
You are stunning.
One,
two,
three.
Success.
Thank you. Thank you so much.
"Drop a snow bomb onto a specific
target to receive your next clue."
Let's go.
OK.
We don't wanna miss the first bus.
Yeah, I'm with you.
Right here, eh? Eh?
Whoo! The snow!
There it is. Almost there.
It's beautiful, isn't it?
So cute.
Is that the mums?
No, that's the cops.
Go, ladies.
Go, ladies.
Well done. First bus.
Good job.
Good job. Good job.
Good job, girls.
First bus.
You guys are machines, eh?
No, I just stood there
and looked pretty.
Well done, boys.
You guys are quick.
Where's the bus?
Where's the bus?
We're going to the ski lifts!
Whoo-hoo!
Look, move,
the girls are coming.
Yes!
Yes.
Good job, everyone.
Good job. Good job.
First bus.
Good.
We've had about four teams going.
I'm not sure who
because I've been so focused on this.
Anything I could be doing to help?
Nope.
Just a back massage
at the end of the day.
That's fine.
I can do that for my new hubby.
Ahh.
What the hell?
Oh, quick, quick, quick.
Two teams going to the judge
for checks right now, bro.
Three. Stop.
Success.
Thank you!
Yes!
Yay!
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!
Good job.
You're such a beautiful bride!
Success.
Yay!
Thank you.
Thank you.
OK, let's go.
Great job.
Are we on the first bus?
If there were nine teams
there
I'm trying to figure out
How many teams are left?
I'll hold your veil, darling.
Hello.
Hola.
Three. Cinderella.
Did one fall off?
Where?
There.
Yes. Again?
You have to help me pick up
the bottom of the dress
because I'm stepping on it,
that's why it's falling.
Oh, right.
Success. Here's your clue.
Whoo!
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Kiss.
Oh, we're married.
Get the gear off.
Whoo!
Three!
Success.
Yay!
Thank you!
Yallah, Reem, otherwise
we'll be on the second bus.
I just took the pins.
I hope that's OK.
I need them. Sorry, God.
Do you reckon we're on the first bus
or second?
Hurry up, just in case
we might be the first.
That is insane!
And I can't believe it's snowing.
I know.
So cool.
On the bus.
Good job, guys, first bus.
Whoo!
First bus is still there.
Where's that bus gone?
- First bus.
- Whoo!
We're on the first bus.
I told you.
Yay!
Very happy.
I didn't even wanna run!
Yay!
Presuming that's the first bus.
That's right, ladies.
The first bus has begun
the one-hour journey
up one of the largest mountainous
regions on mainland Greece,
and the teams on it
will get a head start.
We'll be up there.
Whoa. What is that?
Is that a cloud?
I've never seen
this much snow.
Me either.
Literally, the sky has blended
into the mountain.
Our teams are on their way
to the top of the mountain
to come find me
and do the detours and the pit stop.
However, we just got
to the top of Mount Parnassus
and I was informed that literally a
blizzard's about to hit the mountain.
Everyone's evacuated, they're
bringing the last skiers down now.
We have to get to the bottom
of the mountain ASAP.
Time is of the essence.
The first eight teams to
complete the Wedding Dress Challenge
are en route to Mount Parnassus.
However, it seems
Mother Nature has other plans.
We are right in the middle
of the clouds.
This is not good.
It's called a white-out.
I can't see anything.
That's what happens on the race -
twists, turns, and every now and then
you get a blizzard.
So I'm heading back down to safety.
Two blackfellas getting married.
This is actually a tradition.
Crazy, eh?
It is.
This is their culture, bro.
Success. Here's your clue, guys.
Yay!
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
I feel we're at
the back of the pack.
I think we're at the back.
Everyone just seems to be
not folding
and that seems to be working.
We thought we had come up with
a great strategy
to fold the note,
but, unfortunately, for me,
I made the mistake
of putting the needle
in the wrong direction to the dress
so the notes
were easily slipping off.
Oh, the top one just fell.
Can you stop folding, please?
OK. Yeah.
I'm stopping the folding.
Thank you.
Yeah, go.
Three.
Three.
Yes!
Whoo-hoo!
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
Success.
Give me a hug. Give me a hug.
We've lost a lot of time.
We've gotta wait
for Tammy and Vincent.
Don't worry about the other
teams, Tam, just focus on us.
Arrgh!
Yes, baby.
Success.
All good? Yay!
Yay! Thank you!
No time at all to chuck a bouquet.
It was just a quick whip and read
and let's go.
Let's get out of this.
Thank you.
Oh!
Oh!
Jeez.
Short person problems, eh?
Yeah.
You better direct me
'cause I've got no idea.
Why did I do it this way?
Just go as slow as you have to.
I'm twirling!
Twirling towards freedom.
I know, right?
Success.
Yay!
Yay. Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Slow down.
There might be a time difference
and every second counts.
- Sorry, guys.
- Yay!
Oh, well done, guys,
well done.
All teams are now travelling
from Arachova
up Mount Parnassus.
With the Wedding Dress Challenge
complete,
Pako and Mori will be the first team
released at the next challenge,
almost an hour ahead
of last place team Tammy and Vincent.
Due to the blizzard,
in a world first,
the next challenge
is just minutes from teams arriving.
This is unprecedented.
Teams are now stopping
at the bottom of the mountain
where it's safe to continue the race.
Watch the ice, mate.
Go.
It's closed. It's too dangerous.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Oh, my God, this is crazy.
What's happening?
I don't know.
Thank you.
The chairlift was closed because
there was a massive white-out,
which I thought just was a cute way
of saying the power was out.
Apparently it's a snow thing.
Not that I would know from Perth.
- Thank you.
- Thank you, sir.
Thank you.
Alright, tear.
Alright.
"Create and roll snowballs"
"..to build a snowman"
"..to receive your next clue."
Believe it or not, it snows
in Greece. I didn't know that.
And where there's snow,
there are snowmen.
Teams must make a giant snowman
to the height
of this shepherd's staff.
It needs to have two button eyes,
two stick arms,
a carrot nose, scarf and a beanie
for teams to receive their next clue.
This is our stuff?
OK. Let's go.
OK.
Whoo-hoo!
Bring one of these.
We need to find a cane.
It's there. We just follow the cane.
It has to be that height.
Just follow it? OK. Let's go.
Yep, so let's go get
the stuff that we want.
What are the sticks for?
Their arms.
Oh, OK.
It's mad that we were in Santorini
and it was beautiful blue skies
and now we're building a snowman.
As long as it's got arms,
looks like a snowman.
I don't know
how to build a snowman.
Oh, my gosh,
I've never touched snow before.
I was a snow virgin.
We were like
two kids in a candy store.
Yeah, hundred percent.
Oh, my feet's stuck.
Ugh!
Yay! We're building a snowman!
OK, that's not helping.
Help me start stacking it.
OK.
This is our child.
We just got married
and now we're having a baby.
We're building our baby.
Higher now. Higher.
Ooh! I just ate some. Yum.
Look at the trees!
Wow, looks like Christmas.
Alright?
Look at this.
Oh, man!
Oh, it burns.
Movies fake it.
I was expecting to go up there and
build these beautiful round balls.
Just, like,
pitter-patter the ice
and then boom-boom-boom-boom-boom.
But, no, it actually
That's not how it goes.
It was a mission.
The snow has a mind of its own.
I always envisioned
building my first snowman
in a more relaxing situation.
Yeah, definitely.
With the kids,
having a nice hot cup of chocolate.
Same. Same.
And now, here we are.
Putting it there.
How we do the next one?
Keep adding to this.
We need more on this one, alright?
You reckon?
Yeah.
Oh!
No, Reem, that's gonna fall,
it's too thin.
No, it's not. It'll pack together.
Tip it up a bit more, like this.
Here. Yeah.
Nah, Heath, we're well off.
Just keep building.
It wasn't a traditional
two kind of big circles
that I always envisaged.
It was a very skinny snowman.
The snow was quite icy, so it's hard
to kind of get that into a ball.
So every time we tried
to compact the snowman,
the snow would just
fall off the side.
We need to be really careful,
it's starting to feel like cracking.
Ooh, be careful. This is
Yeah.
..very, very unstable.
I'm worried that we're gonna put
too much pressure on certain areas.
Just leave it for now.
Leave it for now.
I don't know how they got it so tall.
It was so dry
and it
it was just not clumping together.
No. No.
No, Gab, you've gone too thin.
Gotta go thick and go high.
Let's go, let's go.
Come on, come on, come on.
OK.
Come on.
Let's go.
Oh, shit, the other teams
have caught up.
We've got ages to go.
We need to go fast -
the other bus is coming.
Oh, shit!
Hold, and we gotta compact.
Yeah.
Oh!
Gabby!
We need to go higher.
Yep.
I'm just trying to make sure
it doesn't break.
Oh, I don't wanna fall
into our snowman!
We need to name this snowman.
Yeah. Samantha the sexy snowwoman.
She's a bit frumpy down bottom
but skinny up top.
She's not conventional,
but, you know, her owners
are non-conventional.
We need to get height quick.
OK.
I think our snowman technique
was alright.
This is our base here.
Yeah.
There was a cane, and we had to
build it up to a certain height.
And then we had to dress it
with a carrot nose,
button eyes, arms and a scarf.
And a beanie.
And a beanie.
OK, I'll just do around here,
get some extra height.
Put it on, pat it down.
Just keep on patting it, Sam.
Compress it down.
Jeez, we're not built
for bloody snow, are we?
Nope.
Um, I've built 'snowmans' before.
We get snow out in Crookwell
sometimes.
We're from a small country town
called Crookwell, NSW.
We get a lot of snow
and a lot of cold winters.
When we were younger,
you'd build a snowman.
Your whole family comes down,
they do it with you.
Having that bringing into the
challenge, I reckon it just made
A huge advantage.
Yeah.
Ohh, so cold! Oh, my gosh.
OK.
Is it staying?
No.
Holy shsugar honey iced tea!
That's what we need.
Support the neck.
Just like first aid, babe.
Support the neck.
That's it.
Babe, let's try and get
our decoration done.
Beautiful. Good work.
We need to pack it a bit more.
I can't.
Yep, leave it there.
Don't touch it, Jamus.
What else did it need, Heath?
Two eyes, a carrot nose, two arms.
OK, just be really careful here, G.
Now where's the arms?
And then the last thing,
the nose and then the eyes.
Hold the whole thing. Yep.
She got a big-ass nose!
Oh!
Check, please!
Check, please! Hello.
Her name's Samantha.
Yay!
Whoo!
Thank you, darling. Appreciate it.
Thank you! Thank you.
Thank you.
Whoo!
"Route info."
"Make your way to Beau
at the Pit Stop at Arachova.
"Hurry! The last team to arrive
may be eliminated."
Let's go!
Let's go!
Teams will now board the bus
in the order in which
they finished the challenge,
giving them an advantage
in the 2km footrace
that will bring them full circle
and will meet me back here
at the Church of St George,
which is the Pit Stop
for the sixth leg
of the Amazing Race Australia.
How did you guys do it?
Girls, just get big, icy chunks.
And use big, big blocks.
Big blocks that break off,
put it on top.
And then use the soft snow
to mould around it.
Big blocks.
Pako and Mori we just clicked with
from the beginning,
so it's nice to help others,
'cause karma comes around, I guess.
Flick, I need your help.
Yep.
It's falling, it's falling.
Is it? Is it?
Either hold and
We gotta compact.
Oh!
Gabby
That wasn'twasn't me, Flicka.
We've gotta give it some height so
it's not attached to this back part.
We looked to our right
and we saw Morgan and Lilli.
They were smashing it.
They got there just before us.
Yeah, we used their one as a guide.
Yeah, we used their technique.
Gee whiz.
Do you reckon we've got the height?
I don't think it's high enough.
Hey?
I don't think it's high enough.
Is that how high we've gotta get it?
No, I don't think so.
There was a cane, wasn't there?
But look at their one.
Theirs doesn't look that high.
You do this.
I'll keep digging around.
I love the snow.
This is how we're meant
to catch up, Morgs.
Yep.
There's so many other teams
in front of us.
But I think we had a big advantage
to some people.
Some people hadn't even
seen the snow until today.
We both lived in Canada together.
We lived in Whistler.
We know what's up
with our snowman-making.
We've done that once or twice.
How's everyone else overtaken us?
What's wrong with us today?
It's not us, Fliss.
It is!
I don't think it's high enough.
I think it is.
I don't think it is at all.
Is that how high we've gotta get it?
Yep.
Yep.
Just get it as high as that, boys.
Gee whiz. That's sketchy.
It was so hard building the snowman.
It's not really compacting, is it?
Every time we're compacting it,
it kept going smaller and smaller,
so, like, we don't know what to do!
So close!
Yep.
Alright.
Ow, knees.
Alright. Check, please!
Thank you so much! Thank you!
Good job, babe.
Judge! Judge!
Eyes?
OK.
Check! Check, please.
That's not fair.
That's not Oh, well.
Yes!
Thank you!
Thank you.
Thank you, yes.
Oh, Toni, we overshot it.
Yes!
Oh, thank you!
Thank you so much!
Thank you!
Thank you. Good stuff, Tones.
Just go a bit more slowly now.
Gentle. Bit more gentle.
Things are crumbling to the side.
Being at the back of the pack,
we just wanna rush,
because we wanna catch up.
Almost reached the top.
Whoa. Shit.
Try and find another chunk.
Just watch your shoelaces.
They're a bit loose.
Honestly, I really had to
fight the urge
just to grab a snowball
and slam it into Tammy's face!
Judge!
Thank you!
Thank you so much!
Check, please.
Yes!
Thank you so much.
Alright, let's go.
Check. Check.
Check.
Check, please!
Check, please!
Yes! Thank you.
Yay! Thank God.
"Make your way to Beau
at the Pit Stop at Arachova.
"Hurry! The last team to arrive
may be eliminated."
Let's go.
A lot of teams have left.
Four, five, six, seven have left.
We started in the first eight.
Like, we had that head start
because we finished
the dress challenge early.
And then people were just dropping
off left, right and centre!
Yes!
Yay!
Thank you so much!
Oh, no. Can't fall apart
on us now, buddy.
Alright. Oh, shit, I broke his head.
Alright, we're not doing well.
Oh, there's no stuff
in the arms.
Oh, alright.
Oh.
Happy with that?
Yeah.
Oh, we're bloody pros at this!
OK, do we need one more?
This is the ugliest snowman.
It was really ugly.
But we made one, you know?
Yay!
Yes!
Thank you!
You go first.
Ronald.
Ronald McDonald.
Check, please!
Check, please!
Yeah, it's higher than mine.
Yay!
Thank you!
Thank you so much!
Check, please.
Yes!
Whoo! Let's go.
Check.
Yes!
Yes!
Alright, "Make your way
to Beau at the Pit Stop"
"At Arachova."
We don't know how to say
these Greek names,
all these different towns,
but a bloke with a mullet would say
'Ara-CHO-va'.
"The last team to arrive
may be eliminated."
Alright, let's go.
Let's go, let's go.
All teams will travel by bus
back to Arachova
and be released in the order
they finish the Snowman challenge.
They must make their way on foot
to find me
back at the Church of St George
where I'll be waiting
with Maria Ntanou,
Greece's Olympic
cross-country skier.
What are you gonna say?
Welcome to Arachova. Arr-RAH-cova.
Arrra! Arrra!
Arr-RAH-cova.
Arrr-bl-bl-bl-bl-bl!
Arr-RAH-cova.
Arra.
Let's go, babe.
Up ahead.
We tried to maintain pace
because Angel and Frankie
They're so fit, those two.
..were right behind us.
Come on, Ange, let's push!
They've overtaken us once before,
and we really did not want that
to happen again.
Down the hill.
It was dark and cold and
..we didn't know
what direction to go.
Here.
Is it marked?
We had no idea how to find Beau
at the Pit Stop.
Good job, babe.
The cop ladies from WA
were behind us.
We got a good lead. It's OK.
So it was like, "Oh, no,
we're gonna come second again!"
Last stop.
Yep. You all good?
They're right here. Come on.
Push, last leg.
We can get to 'em.
We can catch them.
There's the church. Just there.
Yeah.
Oh, here we go.
Tired.
Last bit.
How bad do you want it?
Who is it?
The boys!
Finally!
Welcome to Arachova.
Thank you!
Thank you so much!
Pako and Mori,
you are the first team to check in.
Well done, boys.
Thank you.
We've been coming second.
Three times we've been hungry
for this win.
Yeah.
Alright, boys, you know the drill.
You are one step closer to $250,000.
Crazy.
And the Isuzu D-MAX
and the Isuzu MU-X.
Whoo!
Go rest. Well done.
Thank you.
Hey, you look warm.
Yeah.
Give me my hug.
Let's go.
There's the church.
Stephanie and Lauren,
you are the second team to check in.
Oh, man!
Great job.
Girls, well done.
We do pretty well from the back.
Yeah.
Angel and Frankie,
you are the third team to check in.
Good work.
Good job.
Yes!
- Welcome to Arachova.
- Thank you.
Heath and Toni,
you are the fourth team to check in.
Thanks, Beau.
Yes! Good work.
Big day?
Huge day.
Yeah.
Beautiful, though.
How you going in the mountains?
I've lost my voice, so
Yeah.
Slow, honey, slow.
My feet are frozen.
I literally
can't feel my feet.
- You good?
- Wait, Gabba.
Come on.
Jamus, how you doin', babe?
They're catching up. Let's go!
I'm slowing down!
Oh, yeah, it's like the
High road and the low road.
That's the low road.
Flick, we need to go, OK?
Going good.
We'll try and pass Chelsea
and Jamus.
They're coming. Oh, my God, bro!
Coming up
Here we go, here we go.
..for our final 10 teams,
the race to the Pit Stop
is a baptism of fire.
Let's go, Sammy.
You are the last team to check in
and you are eliminated.
Chelsea and Jamus
just up here.
Can't feel my feet.
We'll try and pass
Chelsea and Jamus.
Flick, we need to go, OK?
So, you've competed
in three Olympics?
Three Olympics. Vancouver,
Pyeongchang and Beijing.
What was your favourite?
Vancouver.
Vancouver. Oh, here,
we've got another team.
Wow!
Oh, wow!
Get a brighter light.
Sorry about that.
- Welcome to Arachova.
- Thank you.
Chelsea and Jamus,
you're the fifth team to check in.
See you later!
Thank you.
Kelly and Georgia,
you are the sixth team to check in.
Let's go. Good job.
Good job.
How'd you go with the dress?
Great.
We only had our wedding
four months ago,
so it was a little bit different
to what I remembered,
but I actually liked
wearing the dress.
Hey, it's cool of you, dude.
Alright, we've got more teams coming.
See you later.
Thanks, man.
Flick and Gabby, you are
the seventh team to check in.
Yeah. Happy after today.
Yeah?
It was so, so cold.
Nothing could prepare you for it.
Alright, well, go get some food,
go have a rest.
And well done, girls, good on you.
Thank you.
I'm dying.
Yeah, I can't run.
It's hard to run in the cold.
I was anxious because I didn't want
any other teams
to get in front of us.
There's a church. There's a church.
Yep.
I didn't want to come last again.
Bubba, look,
we're right here.
Where to?
Can you ski at night?
Yeah, of course.
If you have the lights,
there's lights,
yeah, you can.
- Yeah, let's go.
- Let's go!
- Welcome to Arachova.
- Thank you.
Morgan and Lilli, you are
the eighth team to check in.
Yes!
Personal record.
Oh, good!
Tiff and Cynthia, you are
the ninth team to check in.
Yes.
Good job, girls.
Yeah, girls.
You were this close last leg
to going home,
now you're moving back up.
Yep.
Yep.
Have you girls seen
much snow before?
No.
Never.
Never seen the snow?
Nope.
Wow. Do you like it?
No.
Which way? The high road?
I don't know.
Fliss, hold my hand.
My hand. Hold it.
You alright?
Not really.
We looked behind
and there was no-one coming,
and then the girls
Our little girls
Our favourite girls.
Come on. Come on, mate.
Come on.
I can't!
Yes. Come on.
Come on.
Oh!
You alright?
You got it.
Go through, Tottie.
- Are there markings?
- Can't see.
Come on, girls!
Welcome to Arachova.
Thank you so much.
I'm proud of you.
Fliss and Tottie,
you are the 10th team to check in.
Good job.
That makes Jodie and Claire
the 11th team.
Yeah. Well done, girl.
Well done, girl. Well done.
Well done, girls.
Well done.
Well done, beautiful.
Crystal.
Yeah.
Give me your hand.
Oh!
Oh, here we go.
Hello!
Crystal and Reem,
you are the 12th team to check in.
Ah. That's good.
Whoo!
Whoo!
Whoo!
Tammy and Vince, you are
the 13th team to check in.
Yes.
OK.
Let's go, Sammy.
We were in the back of the pack
with Sam and Stu,
and we were like, "Well, one of us
will have to go."
We knew we had to just run, run, run
and make sure we get in there first.
Look at them boys.
You right?
Yeah.
You got this, Sammy.
I'm not a fast runner.
Stu's always carrying my bags,
so it was a bit daunting
knowing that the last team
may be eliminated.
Ah, bro.
What's up?
Sorry, bro.
What's up?
My knees are stuffed.
I'm completely gassed, Stu.
Nearly there.
Oh!
Come on.
I was absolutely dying,
but, you know, this could be it.
This is it right here, Sammy.
Keep attacking, bro.
Here we go, here we go.
Welcome to Arachova.
Stuart and Glennon,
you are the 14th team to check in.
I'm not gonna lie, that's the slowest
entry to the mat I've ever seen.
Yeah.
Well, the stairs
Yeah!
But hey, we're here, man.
Yeah, yeah.
Well done. Good to see you, boys.
Cruise out of here.
Oh, thank you.
OK.
Hello.
Sam and Stu.
You are the last team to check in.
And you are eliminated.
Oh!
It's alright, cuz.
We did our best.
That's it.
Proud of what we did.
Yeah, 100%.
Yeah, walk proud, guys,
you did a wonderful effort,
but unfortunately,
your time in the race is over.
Alright, thank you.
Thanks, mate.
Sorry, boys.
All good.
Cheers.
Well done.
In the coldest place in the world.
Yeah.
Brilliant.
Alright, cheers, guys.
Thanks.
It's been a pleasure.
I've had the most unreal experience,
and I'm so grateful I've done it.
Yeah, to walk away
with these memories with Stu,
it's such a cool feeling and we're
so proud of what we've done.
Mullet boys forever.
Next time on
The Amazing Race Australia
..Turkey is no delight
Oh, shit.
..as teams face fears
Oh, my God, it's meat.
If you can't eat it, I don't care.
..failures
Look, I can't get it.
We normally rock.
..and fury.
We've had four people
leave here already.
Look at the example!
OK, Chelsea!
At this point I'm over it.
I hope we come last today.

the Amazing Race Australia
On the island of Santorini
Make sure we get on
the right side of the road.
Oh, shit.
..surrounded by the sea
I think I'm gonna die.
..and stairs.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
..Heath and Toni claimed
their first win.
First team to check in.
But Tiffany and Cynthia
Fully resigned
that we were in last place.
..had the best news of the day.
This is a predetermined
Non-Elimination Leg.
Oh, stop.
No way.
Tonight,
Kathy and Chace are isolating
and in Arachova,
a storm is brewing.
We've just been told that
there's a blizzard on the way.
This is unprecedented.
And things
How did you guys do it?
Get big, icy chunks.
..get frosty.
That's not fair.
That's not
Everyone's evacuated.
We have to get to the bottom ASAP.
But which team
No! The wind!
..won't make it
to the church on time?
Your time on the race is over.
This is the Amazing Race Australia.
Our 15 teams have made their way
from Santorini to "Ara-CHO-va"
"Ara-KO-va".
"A-RA-ho-VA"!
A quaint little mountain town nestled
in the foothills of Mount Parnassus,
one of the only mountains in Europe
you can ski down
with views of the sea.
Plus, according to Greek mythology,
is sacred to the Greek god Apollo.
With an altitude of 2,260 metres,
it's the snow-covered location
for the sixth leg of
the Amazing Race Australia.
Bring glovesand a jacket.
"Route Info."
"Find the Church of St George"
"Where you will take part in
a traditional Greek wedding."
Opa! Now, I love a good wedding,
especially a big Greek one.
Teams will have to find
the Church of St George
and to get there,
they will climb an exhausting
264 stairs in thin mountain air.
Once at the top, teams must dress
as a bride and groom,
and in keeping with Greek tradition,
10,000 euros must be pinned
to the bride's dress by the groom.
Pretty expensive, eh?
If the bride can spin three times
with no notes falling off,
they'll receive their next clue.
I might hang around
to pick up some money, you know,
'cause I've got bills
and kids and stuff.
Anyway, teams are being released
in the order they arrived
at the previous Pit Stop.
And then right.
Jesus.
Whoa, there's a burn already.
Let's go.
My quads are burning!
They're so sore.
They want to kill us.
This is mean.
Back-to-back-to-back stairs.
Which was really hard
because yesterday,
we did the donkey challenge
..with just as many steps,
if not more.
Come on!
Keep this up.
Come on.
Gab
Come on! Come on!
I just felt like
the start of hell,
but even though
we were going to a church.
These stairs, man.
Automatically, I was having PTSD.
I was, "Oh, my God,
where's the donkey?!"
I just wanted the donkey
to drag me up.
Good. That's it. Push, babe.
We certainly won't have a grand
entrance like this to our wedding,
that's for sure.
Here. Oh, Jesus.
Oh, no.
Jodie
Unfortunately for Jodie and I,
you know, we are of
that lovely middle-aged spread.
So cruel.
We don't spring back
like the young 20-year-olds.
Here we go. Flag's there.
Oh, nah.
Oh, jeez.
OK. This is where
we can get the upper hand.
Yeah.
The boys are rattling away,
aren't we?
Come on, come on, come on.
Damn, there's a few stairs here.
I'll grab it for a bit.
I've struggled myself.
Imagine having half the size legs.
Like, I can just see
how hard it would be.
I never wanna see stairs again.
Never-ending, eh?
OK.
Almost there.
Yep.
This is where we get married, Tones.
I reckon it is, babe.
Here? Change.
Yeah. Yeah.
You're the bride. Get some gear on.
What the hell is that thing?
It's to put under your skirt.
With the traditional, I'd be
the bride, he'd be the groom, no.
It's best if we do it the other way
around and he just stands there
and then I do the tacking on
of the money onto the dress.
What one looks good, Tones?
Babe, just get one on!
Is there one with a zip on the back?
I think I look, like, stunning.
Like, really, look how good I look.
"Continue anticlockwise
to the ceremony area."
Right. Come on, bride.
You gotta do all them?
Well, I'm not gonna do half, am I?
Where's the thumbtack?
Justjust
Yeah.
Yeah?
A lot of notes, babe.
Too many to count.
I knew it would be kinda tricksy.
You had to do a few little turns
and if we lost some cash,
we'd be doing it all again,
so it was ridiculously hard.
In through the note, into the dress
and then back out again.
Is that one on properly?
Yes, darling.
Oh.
Please just let me work.
Mori.
Come on.
Let's go. You got this.
We're nearly there.
Good, guys?
Yeah, we're good.
Everyone all good?
Sometimes you need someone turning
back and saying, "Let's go.
"Let's get up these stairs."
We are competitors,
but right now, let's help
each other out while we can
and maybe have our besties
at the end of the line with us.
Bag drop here.
Where's the larger size?
Oh!
Oh, sugar.
This is beautiful.
Wow.
OK, let's go, G.
So pretty.
We're here.
Mori, I'm feeling like
it's my wedding all over again,
but I finally get to be a bride.
This was exactly what you wore
on our wedding day.
This was my fantasy.
I had to wear a suit. Eugh!
Let's go.
I feel so good!
I feel like Julia Roberts
in 'Runaway Bride'.
Oh, you look stunning!
This one? What's the biggest one?
How do you put one of these on?
Come on, hon, be self-sufficient.
I'm trying to
get myself dressed too.
Well, how am I gonna get this
in there?
Just be slow, bro!
Do I have to wear a hat thing?
There's people with hats on.
Yeah, get a hat. OK, let's go.
Ah!
Yeah!
Oh, baby! Made it to the wedding.
It's the big day!
We're getting married!
Bag drop. Let's go.
- OK, find a big dress.
- This is nice and pretty.
Yeah, you're gonna look good in it.
Frankie straightaway was, like,
"I'll be the bride."
And I was,
like, "OK, then."
Only because I think she'll be good
with In terms of pinning.
She always wanted to be
a fashion designer.
Ooh!
Oh, my gosh.
It's all coming together.
I'm trying to get dressed
into my suit
and this guy is playing the ultimate
role of being the bride.
This is coming together well.
You look beautiful!
Oh, thank you!
Thank you.
Who, me or him?
Can you just button me up?
Are you ready to marry me?
No!
Let's go!
I'm not ready to marry you.
Nah. How do these women do it?
Let's go, Frankie.
Ooh! We're finally getting married.
Funny that you're the girl
and I'm the guy.
That's a lot of cash
you gotta pin, eh?
A lot of notes. Fiddly.
Just trying to keep my fingers warm
'cause it's bloody snowing
at the moment.
I feel like I'm in that movie
'Muriel's Wedding'.
Let's go, honey.
Let's go, G.
Hold the front up, yeah.
There we go!
I look so good.
- Hello, hello!
- Hey, girlfriend.
Hello, fellow bride!
Whose idea is it
to bloody put money on a dress?
Loving it, eh?
I ain't no dressmaker. Argh!
Be handy to have my alterations lady
right now. She'd be a queen at this.
Finding a dress at 4'3"
isn't really that easy.
It's all just falling!
I have achondroplasia,
a form of dwarfism.
I've always been able to adapt
to any situation
and it's brought me
awesome life experiences.
I've represented Australia
at the World Dwarf Games.
It was an unreal feeling, really,
like, knowing what
you can actually do
when you put your mind to it.
You got the technique?
Got the technique down pat.
That's good. We're right now.
In
Yep. Nice.
Just go slowly.
You know what helps going up stairs?
Does it?
Place is gorgeous.
It's, like, you know,
them little toy shop-looking places,
but this place is
obsessed with stairs.
I just can't do it.
Come on. We gotta go.
It's the backpack.
So, get that
Argh!
Aah!
So, is this what you thought
our wedding would be like, babe?
This is exactly how I thought
my wedding would be,
people just pinning money
to my dress.
So, thank you, Amazing Race.
'Cause I didn't give him this.
'Cause he did not give me
a wedding dress.
Well, it is our 10-year anniversary.
Can we keep these dresses?
You look so funny!
Our wedding was
only four months ago,
so it's a bit different
to our initial wedding.
I think Georgia might even
look better, I'm not gonna lie.
Sorry, I didn't cry
when I saw you in that dress.
Yeah, I know.
Definitely no way I thought
we were gonna be getting married
in snow, babe.
A beautiful white wedding.
Yeah!
She's already writing down her vows,
like, in preparation.
I think, after today, we might've
just got legally married.
We don't really know.
Yeah, we're not really sure.
Maybe the three spins
is how you certify it.
Yeah, I'm not sure.
Well, it's the third time round
for me in a wedding dress,
so I should be a professional
at this.
I know when it rains it's good luck.
That's happened to me before
and I'm still no longer married,
so maybe snow's gonna be our luck?
- Bag drop there.
- Yeah.
Last leg, we came last.
And Beau told us
it's a Non-Elimination Round,
which means we are still in the race.
We have to screw our heads on
and get this done
because we need to make up time.
What am I missing?
Pants.
Stop it!
Good old southwester.
No, the wind!
Shoot! Shoot! Can you get that?
Ooh, it's gonna fly, hon!
It's gonna fly, hon!
Quick, Lil!
Whoa!
Ooh.
Oh, money's flying!
Whoa! There's some pins everywhere.
This wind.
What? Jamus
The wind will blow the money away.
Just relax.
I'm just trying to ask you.
You said it a hundred times.
You just look out, enjoy the view.
What if it blows the money away?
I'll be blowing it in a minute.
That's the only thing
that will be blowing.
Coming up
We've just been told that
there's a blizzard on the way.
..Mother Nature has shown
she's in full control.
This is unprecedented.
So, let's hope it clears
or we might not be able to finish
this leg of the race.
You're killing this, babe.
We had to dress up
as a bride and groom
and the groom had to pin
all the notes to the wedding dress.
- Your mum's a seamstress.
- Yes, she is.
She would make wedding dresses.
She's a machine
and that's why I'm a machine too.
I feel like a real seamstress.
I'm gonna take some pins
because I ran out for my scarf.
Turn around.
Uh! Uh-uh-uh-uh.
I pin my scarf every day
and I knew
people would be sticking the pin in.
Ahh!
Ohh!
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
I pricked myself.
Oww!
Arrgh! Gosh.
Sorry.
Sorry.
Arrgh!
So I slid the pin in one side,
out the other.
I'm not joking. These are literally
the exact ones that I use.
I'll put it in my pocket for you.
Rack some pins.
Can I steal from the church?
Oh, they're wet too.
I'm a practising Muslim.
My parents raised me that way.
Our religion dictates a lot of
what we do in our day-to-day lives.
But it doesn't limit us. I don't
think either religion limits us.
No, it certainly doesn't.
My whole life, people tried
to put me in a box, the Muslim girl.
I'm a Cancer with a Leo rising,
so
Yeah.
..I've got the best of both worlds.
Vinny.
Yeah?
Look around and see
how the other teams are going?
We might be a little bit behind.
Oh. Bloody hell.
What do you think about
this folding-the-note technique?
Um
I think folding these notes
are gonna help provide tension
on the note itself
and I hope it's less likely
to fall off.
Do you think it's causing us
a bit more time?
I think a note just fell off.
This note pile is just never ending
and it's snowing.
Oh, wow, Frankie,
you look lovely.
Thank you. I feel lovely, T.
Do you feel pretty?
I feel beautiful.
You look stunning.
I love how all the couples
put the man in the dress.
One old fellow
was staring at us on his roof.
Hello!
You need a husband?
No, thanks.
OK. Right.
I'm having my moment.
It's finally happening.
- Oh, shoot, the boys are done.
- Yeah?
How the hell?
Damn, they're fast.
Swish! The wind.
The wind.
One, two and three.
Whoo!
Whoo!
Thank you!
Gracias. Thank you!
Mwah!
She's running.
Oh, she's such a mystery.
I don't want you anymore.
Oh.
Oh!
"I don't want you anymore."
OK, "Route Info."
"Route Info."
"Drop a snow bomb onto a specific
target to receive your next clue."
OK, let's go.
This is gonna be fun!
Teams must travel
on one of two buses
to the peak of Mount Parnassus,
collect snow bombs
and board the chairlifts.
When teams successfully drop
one snow bomb into the target below,
they'll receive their next clue.
They'll need to hurry, though,
there's only room for eight teams
on the first bus to the chairlifts
and bus two can't leave
until the last team is on board.
- You crushed that, Mori.
- Yeah, we did.
Well, you did. I just stood there
and looked pretty.
One to go.
Go.
Wow.
How beautiful is that?
How did they pin it that quickly?
Well done, Tones.
Yay!
Yes! Thank you so much.
"Drop a snow bomb into a specific
target to receive your next clue."
That's awesome. Let's go.
Let's go.
Hold on. Go.
Thank you.
Whoo-hoo!
Babe, one more.
And a kiss for the bride.
Success.
Thank you.
So, we have four teams ahead of us.
Are they still pinning?
First bus, girls.
Oh, it's easy going down.
I have no idea
where we're sitting right now.
It's alright, we just have to be
one of the first eight teams.
Slow and steady
wins the race.
Come on, come on.
The wind.
Yeah, it's all good. Look at you.
You are stunning.
One,
two,
three.
Success.
Thank you. Thank you so much.
"Drop a snow bomb onto a specific
target to receive your next clue."
Let's go.
OK.
We don't wanna miss the first bus.
Yeah, I'm with you.
Right here, eh? Eh?
Whoo! The snow!
There it is. Almost there.
It's beautiful, isn't it?
So cute.
Is that the mums?
No, that's the cops.
Go, ladies.
Go, ladies.
Well done. First bus.
Good job.
Good job. Good job.
Good job, girls.
First bus.
You guys are machines, eh?
No, I just stood there
and looked pretty.
Well done, boys.
You guys are quick.
Where's the bus?
Where's the bus?
We're going to the ski lifts!
Whoo-hoo!
Look, move,
the girls are coming.
Yes!
Yes.
Good job, everyone.
Good job. Good job.
First bus.
Good.
We've had about four teams going.
I'm not sure who
because I've been so focused on this.
Anything I could be doing to help?
Nope.
Just a back massage
at the end of the day.
That's fine.
I can do that for my new hubby.
Ahh.
What the hell?
Oh, quick, quick, quick.
Two teams going to the judge
for checks right now, bro.
Three. Stop.
Success.
Thank you!
Yes!
Yay!
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!
Good job.
You're such a beautiful bride!
Success.
Yay!
Thank you.
Thank you.
OK, let's go.
Great job.
Are we on the first bus?
If there were nine teams
there
I'm trying to figure out
How many teams are left?
I'll hold your veil, darling.
Hello.
Hola.
Three. Cinderella.
Did one fall off?
Where?
There.
Yes. Again?
You have to help me pick up
the bottom of the dress
because I'm stepping on it,
that's why it's falling.
Oh, right.
Success. Here's your clue.
Whoo!
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Kiss.
Oh, we're married.
Get the gear off.
Whoo!
Three!
Success.
Yay!
Thank you!
Yallah, Reem, otherwise
we'll be on the second bus.
I just took the pins.
I hope that's OK.
I need them. Sorry, God.
Do you reckon we're on the first bus
or second?
Hurry up, just in case
we might be the first.
That is insane!
And I can't believe it's snowing.
I know.
So cool.
On the bus.
Good job, guys, first bus.
Whoo!
First bus is still there.
Where's that bus gone?
- First bus.
- Whoo!
We're on the first bus.
I told you.
Yay!
Very happy.
I didn't even wanna run!
Yay!
Presuming that's the first bus.
That's right, ladies.
The first bus has begun
the one-hour journey
up one of the largest mountainous
regions on mainland Greece,
and the teams on it
will get a head start.
We'll be up there.
Whoa. What is that?
Is that a cloud?
I've never seen
this much snow.
Me either.
Literally, the sky has blended
into the mountain.
Our teams are on their way
to the top of the mountain
to come find me
and do the detours and the pit stop.
However, we just got
to the top of Mount Parnassus
and I was informed that literally a
blizzard's about to hit the mountain.
Everyone's evacuated, they're
bringing the last skiers down now.
We have to get to the bottom
of the mountain ASAP.
Time is of the essence.
The first eight teams to
complete the Wedding Dress Challenge
are en route to Mount Parnassus.
However, it seems
Mother Nature has other plans.
We are right in the middle
of the clouds.
This is not good.
It's called a white-out.
I can't see anything.
That's what happens on the race -
twists, turns, and every now and then
you get a blizzard.
So I'm heading back down to safety.
Two blackfellas getting married.
This is actually a tradition.
Crazy, eh?
It is.
This is their culture, bro.
Success. Here's your clue, guys.
Yay!
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
I feel we're at
the back of the pack.
I think we're at the back.
Everyone just seems to be
not folding
and that seems to be working.
We thought we had come up with
a great strategy
to fold the note,
but, unfortunately, for me,
I made the mistake
of putting the needle
in the wrong direction to the dress
so the notes
were easily slipping off.
Oh, the top one just fell.
Can you stop folding, please?
OK. Yeah.
I'm stopping the folding.
Thank you.
Yeah, go.
Three.
Three.
Yes!
Whoo-hoo!
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
Success.
Give me a hug. Give me a hug.
We've lost a lot of time.
We've gotta wait
for Tammy and Vincent.
Don't worry about the other
teams, Tam, just focus on us.
Arrgh!
Yes, baby.
Success.
All good? Yay!
Yay! Thank you!
No time at all to chuck a bouquet.
It was just a quick whip and read
and let's go.
Let's get out of this.
Thank you.
Oh!
Oh!
Jeez.
Short person problems, eh?
Yeah.
You better direct me
'cause I've got no idea.
Why did I do it this way?
Just go as slow as you have to.
I'm twirling!
Twirling towards freedom.
I know, right?
Success.
Yay!
Yay. Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Slow down.
There might be a time difference
and every second counts.
- Sorry, guys.
- Yay!
Oh, well done, guys,
well done.
All teams are now travelling
from Arachova
up Mount Parnassus.
With the Wedding Dress Challenge
complete,
Pako and Mori will be the first team
released at the next challenge,
almost an hour ahead
of last place team Tammy and Vincent.
Due to the blizzard,
in a world first,
the next challenge
is just minutes from teams arriving.
This is unprecedented.
Teams are now stopping
at the bottom of the mountain
where it's safe to continue the race.
Watch the ice, mate.
Go.
It's closed. It's too dangerous.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Oh, my God, this is crazy.
What's happening?
I don't know.
Thank you.
The chairlift was closed because
there was a massive white-out,
which I thought just was a cute way
of saying the power was out.
Apparently it's a snow thing.
Not that I would know from Perth.
- Thank you.
- Thank you, sir.
Thank you.
Alright, tear.
Alright.
"Create and roll snowballs"
"..to build a snowman"
"..to receive your next clue."
Believe it or not, it snows
in Greece. I didn't know that.
And where there's snow,
there are snowmen.
Teams must make a giant snowman
to the height
of this shepherd's staff.
It needs to have two button eyes,
two stick arms,
a carrot nose, scarf and a beanie
for teams to receive their next clue.
This is our stuff?
OK. Let's go.
OK.
Whoo-hoo!
Bring one of these.
We need to find a cane.
It's there. We just follow the cane.
It has to be that height.
Just follow it? OK. Let's go.
Yep, so let's go get
the stuff that we want.
What are the sticks for?
Their arms.
Oh, OK.
It's mad that we were in Santorini
and it was beautiful blue skies
and now we're building a snowman.
As long as it's got arms,
looks like a snowman.
I don't know
how to build a snowman.
Oh, my gosh,
I've never touched snow before.
I was a snow virgin.
We were like
two kids in a candy store.
Yeah, hundred percent.
Oh, my feet's stuck.
Ugh!
Yay! We're building a snowman!
OK, that's not helping.
Help me start stacking it.
OK.
This is our child.
We just got married
and now we're having a baby.
We're building our baby.
Higher now. Higher.
Ooh! I just ate some. Yum.
Look at the trees!
Wow, looks like Christmas.
Alright?
Look at this.
Oh, man!
Oh, it burns.
Movies fake it.
I was expecting to go up there and
build these beautiful round balls.
Just, like,
pitter-patter the ice
and then boom-boom-boom-boom-boom.
But, no, it actually
That's not how it goes.
It was a mission.
The snow has a mind of its own.
I always envisioned
building my first snowman
in a more relaxing situation.
Yeah, definitely.
With the kids,
having a nice hot cup of chocolate.
Same. Same.
And now, here we are.
Putting it there.
How we do the next one?
Keep adding to this.
We need more on this one, alright?
You reckon?
Yeah.
Oh!
No, Reem, that's gonna fall,
it's too thin.
No, it's not. It'll pack together.
Tip it up a bit more, like this.
Here. Yeah.
Nah, Heath, we're well off.
Just keep building.
It wasn't a traditional
two kind of big circles
that I always envisaged.
It was a very skinny snowman.
The snow was quite icy, so it's hard
to kind of get that into a ball.
So every time we tried
to compact the snowman,
the snow would just
fall off the side.
We need to be really careful,
it's starting to feel like cracking.
Ooh, be careful. This is
Yeah.
..very, very unstable.
I'm worried that we're gonna put
too much pressure on certain areas.
Just leave it for now.
Leave it for now.
I don't know how they got it so tall.
It was so dry
and it
it was just not clumping together.
No. No.
No, Gab, you've gone too thin.
Gotta go thick and go high.
Let's go, let's go.
Come on, come on, come on.
OK.
Come on.
Let's go.
Oh, shit, the other teams
have caught up.
We've got ages to go.
We need to go fast -
the other bus is coming.
Oh, shit!
Hold, and we gotta compact.
Yeah.
Oh!
Gabby!
We need to go higher.
Yep.
I'm just trying to make sure
it doesn't break.
Oh, I don't wanna fall
into our snowman!
We need to name this snowman.
Yeah. Samantha the sexy snowwoman.
She's a bit frumpy down bottom
but skinny up top.
She's not conventional,
but, you know, her owners
are non-conventional.
We need to get height quick.
OK.
I think our snowman technique
was alright.
This is our base here.
Yeah.
There was a cane, and we had to
build it up to a certain height.
And then we had to dress it
with a carrot nose,
button eyes, arms and a scarf.
And a beanie.
And a beanie.
OK, I'll just do around here,
get some extra height.
Put it on, pat it down.
Just keep on patting it, Sam.
Compress it down.
Jeez, we're not built
for bloody snow, are we?
Nope.
Um, I've built 'snowmans' before.
We get snow out in Crookwell
sometimes.
We're from a small country town
called Crookwell, NSW.
We get a lot of snow
and a lot of cold winters.
When we were younger,
you'd build a snowman.
Your whole family comes down,
they do it with you.
Having that bringing into the
challenge, I reckon it just made
A huge advantage.
Yeah.
Ohh, so cold! Oh, my gosh.
OK.
Is it staying?
No.
Holy shsugar honey iced tea!
That's what we need.
Support the neck.
Just like first aid, babe.
Support the neck.
That's it.
Babe, let's try and get
our decoration done.
Beautiful. Good work.
We need to pack it a bit more.
I can't.
Yep, leave it there.
Don't touch it, Jamus.
What else did it need, Heath?
Two eyes, a carrot nose, two arms.
OK, just be really careful here, G.
Now where's the arms?
And then the last thing,
the nose and then the eyes.
Hold the whole thing. Yep.
She got a big-ass nose!
Oh!
Check, please!
Check, please! Hello.
Her name's Samantha.
Yay!
Whoo!
Thank you, darling. Appreciate it.
Thank you! Thank you.
Thank you.
Whoo!
"Route info."
"Make your way to Beau
at the Pit Stop at Arachova.
"Hurry! The last team to arrive
may be eliminated."
Let's go!
Let's go!
Teams will now board the bus
in the order in which
they finished the challenge,
giving them an advantage
in the 2km footrace
that will bring them full circle
and will meet me back here
at the Church of St George,
which is the Pit Stop
for the sixth leg
of the Amazing Race Australia.
How did you guys do it?
Girls, just get big, icy chunks.
And use big, big blocks.
Big blocks that break off,
put it on top.
And then use the soft snow
to mould around it.
Big blocks.
Pako and Mori we just clicked with
from the beginning,
so it's nice to help others,
'cause karma comes around, I guess.
Flick, I need your help.
Yep.
It's falling, it's falling.
Is it? Is it?
Either hold and
We gotta compact.
Oh!
Gabby
That wasn'twasn't me, Flicka.
We've gotta give it some height so
it's not attached to this back part.
We looked to our right
and we saw Morgan and Lilli.
They were smashing it.
They got there just before us.
Yeah, we used their one as a guide.
Yeah, we used their technique.
Gee whiz.
Do you reckon we've got the height?
I don't think it's high enough.
Hey?
I don't think it's high enough.
Is that how high we've gotta get it?
No, I don't think so.
There was a cane, wasn't there?
But look at their one.
Theirs doesn't look that high.
You do this.
I'll keep digging around.
I love the snow.
This is how we're meant
to catch up, Morgs.
Yep.
There's so many other teams
in front of us.
But I think we had a big advantage
to some people.
Some people hadn't even
seen the snow until today.
We both lived in Canada together.
We lived in Whistler.
We know what's up
with our snowman-making.
We've done that once or twice.
How's everyone else overtaken us?
What's wrong with us today?
It's not us, Fliss.
It is!
I don't think it's high enough.
I think it is.
I don't think it is at all.
Is that how high we've gotta get it?
Yep.
Yep.
Just get it as high as that, boys.
Gee whiz. That's sketchy.
It was so hard building the snowman.
It's not really compacting, is it?
Every time we're compacting it,
it kept going smaller and smaller,
so, like, we don't know what to do!
So close!
Yep.
Alright.
Ow, knees.
Alright. Check, please!
Thank you so much! Thank you!
Good job, babe.
Judge! Judge!
Eyes?
OK.
Check! Check, please.
That's not fair.
That's not Oh, well.
Yes!
Thank you!
Thank you.
Thank you, yes.
Oh, Toni, we overshot it.
Yes!
Oh, thank you!
Thank you so much!
Thank you!
Thank you. Good stuff, Tones.
Just go a bit more slowly now.
Gentle. Bit more gentle.
Things are crumbling to the side.
Being at the back of the pack,
we just wanna rush,
because we wanna catch up.
Almost reached the top.
Whoa. Shit.
Try and find another chunk.
Just watch your shoelaces.
They're a bit loose.
Honestly, I really had to
fight the urge
just to grab a snowball
and slam it into Tammy's face!
Judge!
Thank you!
Thank you so much!
Check, please.
Yes!
Thank you so much.
Alright, let's go.
Check. Check.
Check.
Check, please!
Check, please!
Yes! Thank you.
Yay! Thank God.
"Make your way to Beau
at the Pit Stop at Arachova.
"Hurry! The last team to arrive
may be eliminated."
Let's go.
A lot of teams have left.
Four, five, six, seven have left.
We started in the first eight.
Like, we had that head start
because we finished
the dress challenge early.
And then people were just dropping
off left, right and centre!
Yes!
Yay!
Thank you so much!
Oh, no. Can't fall apart
on us now, buddy.
Alright. Oh, shit, I broke his head.
Alright, we're not doing well.
Oh, there's no stuff
in the arms.
Oh, alright.
Oh.
Happy with that?
Yeah.
Oh, we're bloody pros at this!
OK, do we need one more?
This is the ugliest snowman.
It was really ugly.
But we made one, you know?
Yay!
Yes!
Thank you!
You go first.
Ronald.
Ronald McDonald.
Check, please!
Check, please!
Yeah, it's higher than mine.
Yay!
Thank you!
Thank you so much!
Check, please.
Yes!
Whoo! Let's go.
Check.
Yes!
Yes!
Alright, "Make your way
to Beau at the Pit Stop"
"At Arachova."
We don't know how to say
these Greek names,
all these different towns,
but a bloke with a mullet would say
'Ara-CHO-va'.
"The last team to arrive
may be eliminated."
Alright, let's go.
Let's go, let's go.
All teams will travel by bus
back to Arachova
and be released in the order
they finish the Snowman challenge.
They must make their way on foot
to find me
back at the Church of St George
where I'll be waiting
with Maria Ntanou,
Greece's Olympic
cross-country skier.
What are you gonna say?
Welcome to Arachova. Arr-RAH-cova.
Arrra! Arrra!
Arr-RAH-cova.
Arrr-bl-bl-bl-bl-bl!
Arr-RAH-cova.
Arra.
Let's go, babe.
Up ahead.
We tried to maintain pace
because Angel and Frankie
They're so fit, those two.
..were right behind us.
Come on, Ange, let's push!
They've overtaken us once before,
and we really did not want that
to happen again.
Down the hill.
It was dark and cold and
..we didn't know
what direction to go.
Here.
Is it marked?
We had no idea how to find Beau
at the Pit Stop.
Good job, babe.
The cop ladies from WA
were behind us.
We got a good lead. It's OK.
So it was like, "Oh, no,
we're gonna come second again!"
Last stop.
Yep. You all good?
They're right here. Come on.
Push, last leg.
We can get to 'em.
We can catch them.
There's the church. Just there.
Yeah.
Oh, here we go.
Tired.
Last bit.
How bad do you want it?
Who is it?
The boys!
Finally!
Welcome to Arachova.
Thank you!
Thank you so much!
Pako and Mori,
you are the first team to check in.
Well done, boys.
Thank you.
We've been coming second.
Three times we've been hungry
for this win.
Yeah.
Alright, boys, you know the drill.
You are one step closer to $250,000.
Crazy.
And the Isuzu D-MAX
and the Isuzu MU-X.
Whoo!
Go rest. Well done.
Thank you.
Hey, you look warm.
Yeah.
Give me my hug.
Let's go.
There's the church.
Stephanie and Lauren,
you are the second team to check in.
Oh, man!
Great job.
Girls, well done.
We do pretty well from the back.
Yeah.
Angel and Frankie,
you are the third team to check in.
Good work.
Good job.
Yes!
- Welcome to Arachova.
- Thank you.
Heath and Toni,
you are the fourth team to check in.
Thanks, Beau.
Yes! Good work.
Big day?
Huge day.
Yeah.
Beautiful, though.
How you going in the mountains?
I've lost my voice, so
Yeah.
Slow, honey, slow.
My feet are frozen.
I literally
can't feel my feet.
- You good?
- Wait, Gabba.
Come on.
Jamus, how you doin', babe?
They're catching up. Let's go!
I'm slowing down!
Oh, yeah, it's like the
High road and the low road.
That's the low road.
Flick, we need to go, OK?
Going good.
We'll try and pass Chelsea
and Jamus.
They're coming. Oh, my God, bro!
Coming up
Here we go, here we go.
..for our final 10 teams,
the race to the Pit Stop
is a baptism of fire.
Let's go, Sammy.
You are the last team to check in
and you are eliminated.
Chelsea and Jamus
just up here.
Can't feel my feet.
We'll try and pass
Chelsea and Jamus.
Flick, we need to go, OK?
So, you've competed
in three Olympics?
Three Olympics. Vancouver,
Pyeongchang and Beijing.
What was your favourite?
Vancouver.
Vancouver. Oh, here,
we've got another team.
Wow!
Oh, wow!
Get a brighter light.
Sorry about that.
- Welcome to Arachova.
- Thank you.
Chelsea and Jamus,
you're the fifth team to check in.
See you later!
Thank you.
Kelly and Georgia,
you are the sixth team to check in.
Let's go. Good job.
Good job.
How'd you go with the dress?
Great.
We only had our wedding
four months ago,
so it was a little bit different
to what I remembered,
but I actually liked
wearing the dress.
Hey, it's cool of you, dude.
Alright, we've got more teams coming.
See you later.
Thanks, man.
Flick and Gabby, you are
the seventh team to check in.
Yeah. Happy after today.
Yeah?
It was so, so cold.
Nothing could prepare you for it.
Alright, well, go get some food,
go have a rest.
And well done, girls, good on you.
Thank you.
I'm dying.
Yeah, I can't run.
It's hard to run in the cold.
I was anxious because I didn't want
any other teams
to get in front of us.
There's a church. There's a church.
Yep.
I didn't want to come last again.
Bubba, look,
we're right here.
Where to?
Can you ski at night?
Yeah, of course.
If you have the lights,
there's lights,
yeah, you can.
- Yeah, let's go.
- Let's go!
- Welcome to Arachova.
- Thank you.
Morgan and Lilli, you are
the eighth team to check in.
Yes!
Personal record.
Oh, good!
Tiff and Cynthia, you are
the ninth team to check in.
Yes.
Good job, girls.
Yeah, girls.
You were this close last leg
to going home,
now you're moving back up.
Yep.
Yep.
Have you girls seen
much snow before?
No.
Never.
Never seen the snow?
Nope.
Wow. Do you like it?
No.
Which way? The high road?
I don't know.
Fliss, hold my hand.
My hand. Hold it.
You alright?
Not really.
We looked behind
and there was no-one coming,
and then the girls
Our little girls
Our favourite girls.
Come on. Come on, mate.
Come on.
I can't!
Yes. Come on.
Come on.
Oh!
You alright?
You got it.
Go through, Tottie.
- Are there markings?
- Can't see.
Come on, girls!
Welcome to Arachova.
Thank you so much.
I'm proud of you.
Fliss and Tottie,
you are the 10th team to check in.
Good job.
That makes Jodie and Claire
the 11th team.
Yeah. Well done, girl.
Well done, girl. Well done.
Well done, girls.
Well done.
Well done, beautiful.
Crystal.
Yeah.
Give me your hand.
Oh!
Oh, here we go.
Hello!
Crystal and Reem,
you are the 12th team to check in.
Ah. That's good.
Whoo!
Whoo!
Whoo!
Tammy and Vince, you are
the 13th team to check in.
Yes.
OK.
Let's go, Sammy.
We were in the back of the pack
with Sam and Stu,
and we were like, "Well, one of us
will have to go."
We knew we had to just run, run, run
and make sure we get in there first.
Look at them boys.
You right?
Yeah.
You got this, Sammy.
I'm not a fast runner.
Stu's always carrying my bags,
so it was a bit daunting
knowing that the last team
may be eliminated.
Ah, bro.
What's up?
Sorry, bro.
What's up?
My knees are stuffed.
I'm completely gassed, Stu.
Nearly there.
Oh!
Come on.
I was absolutely dying,
but, you know, this could be it.
This is it right here, Sammy.
Keep attacking, bro.
Here we go, here we go.
Welcome to Arachova.
Stuart and Glennon,
you are the 14th team to check in.
I'm not gonna lie, that's the slowest
entry to the mat I've ever seen.
Yeah.
Well, the stairs
Yeah!
But hey, we're here, man.
Yeah, yeah.
Well done. Good to see you, boys.
Cruise out of here.
Oh, thank you.
OK.
Hello.
Sam and Stu.
You are the last team to check in.
And you are eliminated.
Oh!
It's alright, cuz.
We did our best.
That's it.
Proud of what we did.
Yeah, 100%.
Yeah, walk proud, guys,
you did a wonderful effort,
but unfortunately,
your time in the race is over.
Alright, thank you.
Thanks, mate.
Sorry, boys.
All good.
Cheers.
Well done.
In the coldest place in the world.
Yeah.
Brilliant.
Alright, cheers, guys.
Thanks.
It's been a pleasure.
I've had the most unreal experience,
and I'm so grateful I've done it.
Yeah, to walk away
with these memories with Stu,
it's such a cool feeling and we're
so proud of what we've done.
Mullet boys forever.
Next time on
The Amazing Race Australia
..Turkey is no delight
Oh, shit.

Oh, my God, it's meat.
If you can't eat it, I don't care.

Look, I can't get it.
We normally rock.

We've had four people
leave here already.

At this point I'm over it.
I hope we come last today.
