And we are live! :clap2:

Previously on TAR, 11 teams set out on a race around the globe! We hit one million miles starting from Hollywood! Three teams formed an early bond, through surprising legs, and hair-raising challenges! (cue Hung's freakout) The bond between these three teams grew stronger as others began becoming knocking out. And one final move to take out the biggest competitors of all. For the first time, an alliance of three advanced to the final three. In the finale, volleyballers, boyfriends, and Hung & Chee will battle for the one million dollars. Who will win?

Riley & Maddison depart 1st at 5:58 AM from Manila.

FLY TO NEW ORLEANS! Upon arrival, teams must travel into the French Quarter to pick up their next clue.

Volleyballers talk about peaking on the race after being in 4th different times in the beginning. They talk about growing together as brothers, as a cohesive force. Will & James depart a few minutes later in 2nd. They talk about the money changing their lives.

Hung & Chee depart in last at 6:04 A.M. and talk about their dynamics.

Will & James bypass Riley & Madisson on the highway! Hung & Chee talk about this being winning instead of survival. Riley & Madisson think they have a shortcut.

Meanwhile, boyfriends arrive at the clue box first. Collect 50 red and 50 gold beaded necklaces from Bourbon Street to receive your next clue from the grand marshal.

Hung & Chee get to the clue 2nd!

Will finds Bourbon Street easily since he's traveled to NOLA before. Meanwhile, Riley & Madisson are having navigation issues. They get to N. Rampart Blvd.

Will & James reach the float where the marshal is sitting and are catching necklaces from there. Hung & Chee are not behind and catch up to them. Live jazz music is playing! Super entertaining!

Is it just me, or do Will & James sound more subdued in their voiceovers? I don't want to read too much into it bc it could lean either way.

We come back to an episode of Riley & Maddison's misadventures of navigation! They get directions from a local and find the park eventually. "There is a million dollars on the table. We're gonna make up time..."

They find the crowds on the intersection. Hung & Chee are counting all beads. The marshal requires all the larger beaded necklaces and they get disapproved. Will & James also realize this mistake. Riley & Maddison begin pretend flashing their throwers.

Hung & Chee and Will & James slowly go up the count. Boyfriends get their clue 1st. ROADBLOCK: Who will be left holding the baby? One team member must find the baby in the king cake to receive the next clue. On the way there, teams must play the washboard with the band on the way to the bakery. Which bakery specifically?

Will tries to squeeze the baby out of the king cakes with his fingers. He realizes more cakes are coming in from the backroom. :funny:

Hung & Chee try to walk faster to get to Cafe Beignet for the Roadblock.

Imagine having to eat the cakes as you search through them for the baby. }:>
Will finds the baby and silently brings it to the overseer. They must eat a beignet to receive their next clue.

Maddison and Chee are still searching. Will is still trying to eat the beignet.

No lie, the beignet task is the most brutal of the leg so far
You need water to get the dry pastry down, but the water makes the dough expand in your stomach :funny: I'm sure it's a gross feeling!
