The Amazing Race

Previously on The Amazing Race...

- All right, let's do it! - Five teams raced

to Siem Reap, Cambodia.

Just going upstream to a temple.

Standard Thursday.

With only the Mine Five alliance

left in the game, some teams were in the dark...

It's every team for themselves.

About a secret alliance

with a U-Turn plan.

There's only one real alliance.

Us, the boyfriends,

- and Chee and Hung. - We're all

on the same page that we need to

get Gary and Deangelo out of the race.

When that plan fell apart...

If we U-turn Deangelo and them, they could U-turn.

Chee-Hu or the boyfriends.

A new target was found...

We're gonna U-turn brother and sister.

Setting up a tense confrontation

at the Roadblock.

Why would you not use your brain to U-turn

a team that's, like, been ahead of you?

If I'd have U-turned any other team, I'd be last.

In the end, Riley and Maddison won the leg...

- You are team number one. - Good work, man!

While Eswar and Aparna couldn't complete

a U-Turn comeback.

I'm sorry to tell you,

you have been eliminated from the race.

Coming up tonight,

the final four become the final three.

- You can't let them pass us! - Hi-o!

Who will make it in? And who will be eliminated...

Come on, Gary.

Next?

Let's go, alliance!

Shh! Secret.

After finishing first in Cambodia,

Riley and Maddison won a trip from Travelocity

- to Norway. - Holy moly.

We're going to Bergen, Norway.

- Are you kidding me? - Yeah! Five nights!

This is legit.

Our beards are gonna fit right in.

Wow. This is the hotel?

- Wow, look at that. - Look at this place.

We're gonna be living it up.

- Nice. We're stoked. - Yes!

- Where we going? - "Fly to Manila in the Philippines."

Riley and Maddison will be the first

of the final four teams to fly to Manila,

the capital city of the Philippines,

one of the first countries to adopt texting,

and now known as the texting capital of the world.

Teams must find me here, downtown,

at Lapu Lapu Circle.

- Let's do it. - All right.

Final four feels real good.

We've won two legs in a row.

So, I guess you'd say we're-we're peaking,

but I don't want to jinx it.

Kind of a strange clue, though,

because it says you'll find, like, a marked jeep

- that will take you to Phil. - Right.

Normally you only see Phil at the end,

at the Pit Stop, and this time,

we're seeing him almost at the Pit Start.

Something strange is gonna happen.

The Philippines!

We love the Philippines! Mabuhay. Let's go.

Lapu Lapu Circle, here we come.

To make the final three would be

a dream come true.

To get to the very end would be

amazing.

Unintended.

It would be great if Gary and Deangelo

have a big fall-out today, and get eliminated.

We love our alliance with Hung and Chee and the beards.

But at this point, we really need to focus on Will and James.

As long as Will and James get to the final three,

that's all we care about.

- All right, let's go. - Let's go.

It would be just a huge sense

of satisfaction to make it to the final leg.

Hung and I want to do this to be good role models

for our daughters, you know,

and show them what, you know, grit and determination

- looks like. - Never been to the Philippines before.

Um, my best friend is half Filipino,

So hopefully this is a good sign.

All right, let's go.

Winning's our nature. It's what

we're taught to do growing up, it's what we were taught

when we're playing. We don't want participation trophies.

We only want to win. If we don't win,

then we're not satisfied.

At this point, no one's helping anyone,

because it could cost you a trip into the...

The final three.

Hey, what's up, guys?

Okay, I see Will and James and beard brothers.

Yay!

Guys, the alliance is complete.

Yeah, this feels good.

Hopefully, there'll be a dance challenge

or something Deangelo and Gary can't do.

Hopefully they'll go.

- There they are. - Yeah.

- Can we...? - Let's check in now.

Let's check in. Go ahead, guys.

Hey, guys.

- Hello. - Hello.

We are on our way to the Philippines.

And we're all on one flight.

Our only goal now is to get to the final three.

Gonna be another team out there,

whether it's the beard bros or the boyfriends

or Chee-Hu, that are going home.

Boarding our flight to Manila!

- Final four, baby. - What he said.

It's about to be The Thrilla in Manila, Part 2.

Lapu Lapu Circle.

Right there, he's right there.

I see him with his hat.

It's extremely weird to see Phil

at the beginning of a leg.

Hi, everybody.

We knew that something different

was gonna happen.

And everybody was on pins and needles.

Welcome to downtown Manila,

the most densely populated

city center in the world.

Now, you're probably wondering why I've got you here.

That's because, for the first time ever,

you're about to take part in a city sprint.

You are gonna be racing around Manila,

through all this dense, crazy traffic,

as fast as you can.

Holy smokes.

There are no Roadblocks

and no Detours.

You'll do every challenge as a team and speed

matters the most. You're gonna race all around

the city and then guess where you're coming back to.

- Here. - Right here.

Right here. This is the start

of this leg of the race and it's also the Pit Stop

for this leg of the race.

So, I know that there's been some alliances.

I know that, throughout the race, you've all helped

each other out, but if I could give you any advice,

think very carefully about helping out another team,

because this is all or nothing for all of you.

If you want to be in that final three,

you got to do what you can to stay in it.

Is everybody ready to race?

- Yeah! - Yes!

All right, now your first clue

is inside one of the marked jeepneys

which is close by.

When I give you the word,

you can run to that marked jeepney,

grab your clue, read it,

and start your sprint around Manila.

Good luck.

Travel safe.

- Run, run. - Let's get it, let's go.

Come on, Chee. Chee, come on.

- Come on, babe. - Yo, I don't know

- if it's this way. - Hello. Hi!

- Keep running. - There they are.

Will, Will, come here! Right here.

- Just get in one. Right here. - Go, baby.

Right there, to the left.

Do you see it, Chee?

Here we go.

"Solve this riddle to find the marked clue giver."

"But keep your eyes peeled while you're on the road."

"Red means stop, green means go."

"When it comes to traffic, I make it flow."

"Hold out your hand to grab your clue.

Then you'll find out what's waiting for you."

The navigation company Waze

once called this the worst traffic on Earth.

The perfect recipe for road rage.

Thankfully, Romero Hinojas has come to the rescue,

by putting a smile on everyone's faces

with entertaining moves like these.

Teams need to find him, grab a clue,

and then keep on racing.

- Get ready to have your hand out. - Yes.

The marked jeepney knew where to go.

We just need to keep our eyes open.

"Hold out your hand and grab your clue."

"Red means stop, green means go.

When it comes to traffic, I make it flow."
