Intro.

Alenaveda:
Ciudad Alfaro. Penultimate Pit Stop of this vertiginous race, is an iconic place where rests the ashes of Eloy Alfaro Delgado, main protagonist of the history of Ecuador.
Today 3 teams will face each other on the great finale of The Amazing Race.

Nico & Javier depart first.
RI: Make your way on taxi to the Manta Bus Terminal and board a bus to the city of Guayaquil. Once there, travel by cab to the Plaza Pilsener at the Las Peñas neighborhood, and look for a trio of Lagarteros (guitar players) who will handle the next clue. 80 dollars for this leg of the race.

Commandos depart in 2nd. In the cab they say that they're going home.
Friends talk about JC & Gio only a minute behind them, so they are probably going to be stick to them. And that's exactly what happens.
They buy together the tickets.

Juan & Ceci depart in 3rd place. She says that the definition of the race will be on the last task. For that, is important to arrive close to the other teams.

First bus leaves with the male teams on it. Nico says "it's all or nothing today".  Javi also comments that is the first time that a team is racing the finale in its hometown; that they need to be skilled for getting info but also to keep an eye on them all the time.

Juan & Ceci on the second bus. No time reference between both buses. Juan is expecting an equalizer somewhere on the leg.

Alenaveda:
Jaime introduces the last destination of the race: Guayaquil is the most populated city of Ecuador and a place of multiple contrasts.
Business and entertaiment center that in the last years is having a great architetural development. Is here where the finalist will arrive to give it all in this thrilling final leg of The Amazing Race.

First bus arrive at night. Both teams begin walking through the terminal, but suddenly one of the commandos start racing and it becomes a dash to the cabs.

Ecuadorians talk about 2 different entrances to the Plaza. The main one and another with stairs. Both teams ask for this entrance.
On the cab, Nico & Javi ask the driver what is a lagartero and he told them "guitar players".

Juan & Ceci arrive to the city. On the taxi they also talk about the advantage of the Ecuadorians on racing on their city.

Bros-in-law and friends reach the plaza with only a couple minutes difference. Nico & Javi ask a security guard for the lagarteros and he send them to the top of the plaza. Meanwhile, JC & Gio find the guitar players, but apparently they're not the right ones.
Nico & Javi get help from a local who guide them to the place where the lagarteros could be.

Father & daughter stop for asking directions to another cab driver.

The thing is, the commando found the lagarteros but they didn't pay attention to what they were singing. When they return to them they notice that they're singing (sort of less) "Today there's no race and you have to return tomorrow morning because the clue will be here at 11.00am" :lol:
Nico & Javi also find them and realize immediately what they say.
Finally, Juan & Ceci locate the players and listen the song. The happiness on their faces in huge.

Next morning, and all teams are waiting. At 11.00am they receive the clue for each one of the three players.

RI: Travel on foot to the Casa Pilsener Restaurant. Once there they have to count the different color and value poker chips until finding the correct amount. Once done, they'll receive the next clue.
Note: chips value is the following: white=7, green=35, red=54 and blue=99

The task location a meter away from the lagarteros, so they quickly start to complete the task.

Commandons don't understand what they have to do. Argentinean separate the chips in groups of ten. Mexicans also can quickly understand what to do. At this point everybody is separating the chip in piles of ten.

Nico & Javi first attemp: their number is 81.516. Incorrect. They return and soon try again: 80650 the number... and they got it right!

Alenaveda:
Nico & Javi finish in first place.
RI: travel on taxi to the TC Channel to find the next clue.

They run to the cab, but looks like something fall from their backpacks ?
On the cab, they expect that the others experience problem while solving the task, so they can have a little time advantage.

Commandos go with the judge: they're number is 81631, and it's wrong.
Father & daughter try with 81539 and of course it's wrong.
Ecuadorian try again, and it's correct!

That dissapoint Mexicans, but they say they have to keep trying. In confessional, they also say that they were hoping for a mental challenge like this one all the race and when it happens they failed.

Argentineans at the television Channel.
RB: Who loves the show?
In this last Roadblock the teams should face an extreme physical challenge of a television show.
The team member must go to the studio of Calle 7 show and overcome the demanding game circuit. After completing, racer will receive the next clue.
Javi is doing the RB. And Jaime is there as the announcer.

At the ARM, Juan & Ceci are still trying to solve the task. Meanwhile, the commandos arrive to the tv studio.
Wow, they see Javi performing the RB and go straight to the place, without picking the clue. JC start to doing it, but they're asked about the clue so they realize they must locate the box and get it before starting, what they quickly do.

Father & daughter try again, and this time they deliver the right number, leaving the task in last place. On the cab, she speaks again about asking for a mental challenge and how they sucked doing it.

At the RB, Javi complete the first challenge of the circuit, picking a race flag. While doing the second, JC is starting the first.
Javi is struggling at the second challenge, climbing a zip line with a flag at the end. And suddenly he made all his way back to the beginning.
