You're
Gonna Get Me Killed!
November 30
Four teams have headed from KZ to Russia,
where they manage to feed and (albeit unintentionally) entertain the
locals. Meanwhile, when teams get lost, the time comes for Toni & Dallas
to rise to the occasion. Can Nick & Starr recover? Will Dandrew go over
the Speed Bump in time to recover? And which team will end up losing
EVERYTHING?
The Race continues from...
PIT STOP - Neskuchny Sad Park; Moscow,
Russia
For unspecified reasons, teams do not
wait 12 hours to get going, but rather when the powers that be deem it
safe to proceed.

ROUTE INFO |
|
TRAVEL TO SVERNO TUSCHINO PARK!
Travel by taxi to Sverno Tushchino Park
and find a decommissioned submarine. Once there, descend
into the bowels of the ship to the sonar room and find an
actor who appeared in the movie "The Hunt for Red October".
He will give you your next clue. You have $326 for this leg
of the Race. |
There's no time to be messing
around, as Dallas tries to make his own decision. Toni just
wants him to find ultimate happiness.
Ken & Tina look for some consistency,
some continuity... and someone who understands enough to get them to a
sub.
Nick & Starr have to get back on their
game. Nick is calm, cool, and collected. Starr just doesn't want to let
him down.
Dandrew needs all the help they can get.
They're comeback kids.
All of the teams find the sub, but can
they find the actor? Yep.

TRAVEL TO PARK ISKUSSTV
Travel by taxi to Park Iskusstv, known by
the locals as the Graveyard of Fallen Monuments. Search
around the grounds of the park for your next clue. |
According to some locals and a
GPS, they're all headed downtown. Except for Dandrew, who paid
their taxi and let him go. The rest of the teams are still stuck
in traffic. Dandrew finds an English-speaking cabbie, and now
they're on their way to a traffic jam.
Nick & Starr get to the park first and
hit a...

ROADBLOCK |

WHO'S GOOD AT SOLVING MYSTERIES...
LITERALLY? Scour the park filled
with Soviet-era monuments counting the statues of Lenin (6)
and Stalin (2). After joining the numbers to get 62, go to
an antique bookstore on Arbat St. and give the clerk your
number. If you are successful, she will hand you a book.
Turn to page 62, where you will find information on your
next destination, the home of the author Mikhail Bulgakov.
Find the building, and you'll find your next clue.
If you are incorrect, you will have to
wait 10 minutes before submitting another guess.
Teams will be given the Cyrillic
spelling of their names. |
Nick gets the nod on this as does
Andrew and Dallas. Toni gives the Race pack to Dallas while she
waits. The bad news... Andrew is in the wrong park, so he's not
going to find anything.
Nick finds the statues. Now he's going to
the bookstore.
Tina goes looking, and Nick's looking...
to steal Kenny & Tina's cab. Tina also takes her money and passport.
Meanwhile, at the designated waiting
area, Toni's not sure Dallas knows who Lenin or Stalin are.
(C-Note: and a special hello to those of
you who are just tuning in for Cold Case)
Nick gets the number and the book, which
tells him to go to Sudovaya St.
Dallas looks kinda lost as he gives his
guess of... 32. Wrong. 46? Wrong.
Tina has two guesses, 52 and 62.
Nick is the first to find his partner
waiting at the clue box...

TRAVEL TO SOKOL'NIKY PARK!
Travel by taxi to Sokol'niky Park and
look for the lady with the Shetland pony. |
Meanwhile, Dan gets a mystery and
Andrew's money.
Tina submits her answer of 52.. nope.
Nick & Starr find the lady with the
Shetland pony. She hands them THIS.
|
DETOUR - RIDE THE RAILS or RIDE THE
LINES? |
|
RIDE THE RAILS: Make your way on foot
to Sokol'niky Metro Station, where you will catch the metro
to Ulitza 1905 Station. Then find the marked snack shop
where you will be given a traditional pastry known as a
samsa. The wrapper will direct you to another station,
Kitay-Porov Station. Find a statue dedicated to the men who
created the Cyrillic alphabet. Then take the metro to VDNKh
Park and search the station for your next clue.
RIDE THE LINES: Make your way on foot
to a bus stop near Sokol'niky Park, and hop on a bus to
Krasnoselskaya. Find the key maker who'll give you a key to
Rizhskaya Train Station, where you'll have to travel by
trolley bus. Search the station for a locker that matches
your key. Open it and retrieve a postcard to your final
destination, VDNKh Park. There, you will find your next
clue. |
Nick & Starr go to the subway station.
Andrew gets the help of a local to find
his statue.
Dallas submits his next guess... 63.
WRONG. Tina gets 62... Got it. "You owe me!" Tina's on her way.
Dandrew get 61. Dallas gets 62. Guess
which one's right.
Nick & Starr make mincemeat of the subway
system. It's just like New York, really. Ken chastises Tina for helping
Dallas.
But the big event happens as Dallas goes
to meet Toni, as he closes the taxi door... with the Race pack still
inside (containing all of their money AND their US passports). Dallas
realizes his error... two seconds too late. This goes beyond the Race.
They're now in serious trouble. So what do they do now? All they can do
now is beg.
Andrew gets his clue and heads to the
apartment.
Meanwhile, Nick & Starr find out that
being a New Yorker is finally paying off.
Toni & Dallas get enough money to cover a
metro ticket to Sokol'niky Park. Twenty, compared to 400 for a cab ride.
They make it.. and find that Dandrew are RIGHT behind them. Time to
reenact last week's "Cha$e". But while Toni & Dallas get the next clue
(or do they? Turns out that the lady with the pony knew about the metro
ride and under orders from the producers, is refusing them the clue),
Dandrew gets...

SPEED BUMP |
|
PERFORM A RUSSIAN DANCE!
Perform with a troupe of traditional
Russian dancers for one song. Once you have completed the
dance to the instructor's satisfaction, she will give you
your next clue. |
The last time Dan had a rhythm
exercise, he screwed it.
Meanwhile, Dallas & Toni head back to the
apartment. Ken & Tina head to their first station. And Dan... messes up
another dance.
Ken & Tina, as it turns out, are on the
wrong bus.
Nick & Starr are on their way to VDNKh
Park, while Ken & Tina are back on their way to the park.
Dandrew finally dance their way to ...

SPEED BUMP |
|
YOU HAVE GONE OVER YOUR SPEED BUMP!
Make your way on foot back to the lady
with the Shetland Pony and continue with the Race. |
Toni & Dallas successfully
procure a taxi, while Ken & Tina successfully procure a trolley.
Nick & Starr find the Park and the clue
box outside of it.

MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE PIT STOP!
Make your way on foot to the next Pit
Stop, VDNKh Park.
WARNING! The last team to check-in MAY BE
ELIMINATED! |
PIT STOP - VDNKh Park; Moscow,
Russia
Nick & Starr are the first to be greeted
by Phil and his happy local... They are team #1... Not only do they win
a trip to Anguilla... they are locked into the FINAL THREE!
Ken & Tina and Dandrew find the keymaker
and get their keys, get their postcards, and head to the park.
Toni & Dallas decide to ride the lines,
but it may be a little too late for them as they have to raise the funds
to do so. They do...
Meanwhile, Ken & Tina are lost.
Toni & Dallas find the keymaker, but now
they have to get 50 from somebody.
Andrew & Dan punch in as team #2. They'll
be racing for a million as well. HOWEVER... they need to pick up the
clue from outside of VDNKh Park.
Meanwhile, Toni & Dallas continue to chug
along. They pass the station, though.
Ken & Tina finally find the clue and
punch in at third. They will race for a million.
All that's left to do is, for the second
time in Amazing Race history, go into the town and retrieve the final
team. And Phil does just that as he exits Rizhskaya Metro Station, JUST
AS Toni & Dallas get their. After all of their hard work and begging to
the locals, the fact remains that their road to the million will end
right here, right now. Dallas feels bad that he let his mother day. It's
just a tough day. He is proud of his mom, because everything he is is
because of her. "This has been the best experience of my life, and I
would never have changed a thing."
But now it's on. Nick & Starr... Andrew &
Dan... Ken & Tina.... It's time to go back home.
