Tonight a new episode of The Amazing Race airs tonight on CBS. Read a live recap of the episode here.
Tonight five teams remain in the race. With a Double U-Turn in play, which team’s dream of winning the million dollar prize will come to an end tonight? Let’s find out.
Adam and Bethany came in first place in the last leg of the race, so they’re the first to depart. They learn their new destination: Singapore. They must catch a ferry there, run a mile in the jungle, and get their next clue at a coconut stand. On the way to the travel agency, Misti and Jim remark how they have an alliance with everyone except Kym and Alli. Misti and Jim also book the same flight as Adam and Bethany before realizing that there were earlier flights. He’s visibly frustrated as Kym and Alli book a flight forty minutes earlier than them. Amy and Maya and Brooke and Robbie book the same flight as Kym and Alli.
Kym and Alli, Amy and Maya, and Brooke and Robbie already reach the coconut stand before Adam and Bethany and Misti and Jim arrive. There is a Fast Forward to do a simulated surfing task in a Wave House, and Kym and Alli choose to do it. On the ferry back, the three teams in the lead see Adam and Bethany and Misti and Jim arriving.
At Marina Bay Sands Hotel, Amy and Maya and Brooke and Robbie find the next clue box. There is a Roadblock to complete, which requires teams to walk across a tightrope between two building over 600 feet in the air. Brooke and Maya do the Roadblock.
Kym and Alli are having second thoughts about doing the Fast Forward as Adam and Bethany think about doing the Fast Forward after realizing it’s a simulated surfing task. As Maya and Brooke do the Roadblock, Adam and Bethany have decided to do the Fast Forward, but Kym and Alli are already at the Wave House.
Maya and Brooke finished the Roadblock. They and their teammates make their way to where the next clue is located. Kym and Alli are struggling at the Fast Forward as Adam and Bethany arrive. They both fall down, allowing Adam and Bethany a chance to attempt it. Amy and Maya get the clue for the Detour. “China Cups” requires teams to get detoxed with suction cups during a traditional massage. “Chili Crabs” requires teams to prepare a seafood plate. Amy and Maya choose “China Cups,” but Brooke and Robbie still cannot find the person to hand them their next clue.
Jim attempts the Roadblock as Adam and Bethany begin the Fast Forward. Adam falls down, so Kym and Alli get a chance to try it again. Jim also completes the Roadblock.
Amy and Maya are at the “China Cups” Detour and are in pain during the massage. They’re crying out in anguish as the masseuses are laughing. Brooke and Robbie finally find their clue and do “China Cups” too.
Kym and Alli are now doing the Fast Forward, but Kym falls. Adam and Bethany can now do the Fast Forward again. They complete it successfully as Alli is moaning and repeatedly saying how much she didn’t want to do the Fast Forward. Adam and Bethany are now in first place and can make their way to the Pit Stop: Fullerton Pavilion.
Misti and Jim choose to do the “Chili Crabs” Detour and Kym and Alli are on the way back to the Roadblock as Adam and Bethany greet Phil as Team #1! They win a trip to Bali.
Amy and Maya are still crying out in pain as Brooke and Robbie arrive at the “China Cups” Detour. Brooke is enjoying her massage and laughing at Amy and Maya, but Amy especially is in a lot of pain. However, Brooke and Robbie’s massage soon turns painful too, but they’re handling it better than Amy and Maya.
At the “Chili Crabs” Detour, Misti and Jim get to work as Kym and Alli arrive at the Marina Bay Sands Hotel to do the Roadblock; Kym does the Roadblock. At the “China Cups” Detour, Amy and Maya and Kym and Alli agree to U-Turn both Adam and Bethany and Kym and Alli before departing.
Amy and Maya U-Turn Adam and Bethany before getting their clue, which informs them they must find the correct merlion monument out of several in the city where the next clue box is located. Meanwhile, Kym and Alli make their way to the “China Cups” Detour. As well, Brooke and Robbie get their next clue at the U-Turn board, but choose not to U-Turn anyone right before Misti and Jim complete their “Chili Crabs” Detour.
While looking for the merlion monument, Amy and Maya and Brooke and Robbie run into each other. Amy and Maya are mad after Brooke and Robbie revealed they did not U-Turn Kym and Alli. Brooke and Robbie find the correct merlion monument and they lie to Amy and Maya that they did not find it. As a result, Amy and Maya believed them and drove past the correct merlion monument.
Misti and Jim do not U-Turn anyone before trying to find a merlion monument. Brooke and Robbie arrive at the Pit Stop and greet Phil as Team #2.
Misti and Jim find the correct merlion monument while Amy and Maya are still lost. Kym and Alli have now caught up and are looking for the correct merlion monument too. Amy and Maya finally realized that Brooke and Robbie lied to them.
Misti and Jim greet Phil as Team #3. This was also the last leg the Save could’ve been used, so now the Save they still have is useless.
It’s a close race to the Pit Stop between Amy and Maya and Kym and Alli, but Amy and Maya are the team to greet Phil as Team #4. Kym and Alli are the last team to arrive and have been eliminated. They took a risk with going for the Fast Forward, which cost them the race. They’re in tears, but handle their elimination relatively well.
