DAVID: It's the most extreme global challenge ever devised.
Let's go!
Three teams of strangers... Arggh!
Whoo! Let's go, guys!
..Team Navy, Team Gold, and Team Scarlet -
dropped somewhere on the planet...
We're in the middle of the desert.
..with one massive twist.
Unable to see... (DRUMS THUD)
..unable to hear.
(ISLAMIC CALL TO PRAYER)
They have no idea where they are...
(SCREAMS)
..or what they're about to experience.
(CHEERING)
(HAND SLAPS) Oooh!
Their sole focus is to make it to the escape zone...
Let's go, guys!
..because the last team to meet me there...
Seriously, run, run, run!
..must eliminate one of their own.
(SCREAMING)
..until one traveller remains to take home $100,000
and two first-class tickets around the world.
(ISLAMIC CALL TO PRAYER)
Previously... MAN: What is this place?
..teams landed during the dawn call to prayer...
WOMAN: You just had goose bumps.
..in magical Istanbul.
WOMAN: It's breathtaking. I can't describe it.
Then the Rush was on... MAN: Here we go.
(HANDS THUD) (CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)
Oh, no more! No more!
..as they set a cracking pace through Turkey.
(HAND SLAPS) Arggh!
(THUD!) Oh, my god!
(JAUNTY MUSIC)
But a budget blow-out...
..left the Gold Team hopelessly stranded...
MAN: We're in the middle of nowhere.
..and Priscilla paid the ultimate price.
We're sending Priscilla home.
..and she departed with a dire warning to CK.
If I'm thinking about it,
CK, you will be next on the chopping block.
Tonight...
MAN: Oh, wow!
..the adventure continues in breathtaking style.
MAN: I feel like we're on the surface of Mars.
..as our teams embark on a quest...
(CHEERING)
..to one of the wonders of the world.
WOMAN: Oh, my god, this is beautiful!
The drop starts...
(IMPACT BOOMS)
..now.
(HAUNTING MIDDLE EASTERN MUSIC)
(CAMEL BRAYS)
(BIRD CALLS)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)
(HEARTBEAT THUDS)
VOICEOVER: Prepare for drop.
(STATIC CRACKLES)
Ten, nine, eight,
seven, six, five,
four, three, two, one,
and we are go for the drop.
(IMPACT BOOMS)
(GROANING) CK: It's so bright out!
Oh, wow!
(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM) Where are we?
Oh, it's so bright out!
SAXON: Hello?
Holy hell, where's everyone else?
No-one else is here - like, none of the other teams.
(HAUNTING MIDDLE EASTERN MUSIC)
Oh, wow. Oh!
Far out!
FIONA: Where are we - on a 'Star Wars' bloody set?
Just goes for miles and miles!
This is wild!
How the hell do we get out of here?
(LAUGHS) That's what I'm thinking!
This is a nightmare.
I'm glad I've got some people with me, that's for sure.
This is looking like survival mode at this point.
Oh, yeah! Yeah.
Yeah, this is!
(DRUM RHYTHMS)
MAN: Bloody hell! MAN: Wow!
Hello?!
Anyone?!
Can we take this in for a second?
If we just stay quiet for, like, ten seconds,
just to have a listen to what's actually here.
(HAUNTING MIDDLE EASTERN MUSIC)
Look, I don't wanna be a pessimist,
but we're screwed.
(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Everything looks the same!
TYLEN: God, what's the mission gonna be here?
Where even are we?
(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)
Teams have been dropped in the desert heart of Jordan.
Their goal - to face their biggest adventure yet.
They must travel 100km to one of the Seven Wonders of the World.
Carved over 2,000 years ago...
(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)
..Petra is one of the oldest cities remaining,
and was a religious and commercial centre
for the ancient Nabataean tribe.
Today it's Jordan's most popular attraction,
with over a million visitors annually.
(HAUNTING MIDDLE EASTERN MUSIC)
But first...
(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)
..teams must find me in the Wadi Rum Desert.
Stretching all the way to the border with Saudi Arabia,
it is 720km of some of the most inhospitable terrain on Earth.
Daytime temperatures have been recorded
as high as 52 degrees Celsius,
and as low as minus eight at night.
(MUSIC SWELLS AND FADES)
ADAM: If we've gotta trek it... (LAUGHS)
(ELECTRONIC BEEPING) Oh, guys!
FIONA: Oh, hang on. Oh!
"A precious rock surrounded by sand. A reminder of Egypt."
"Is where you should land."
MAN: It's Dr Seuss.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)
Each team is 8km away from me
and must solve the clue to find my location,
then they must navigate through the desert
with only the most basic tools -
a map and a compass.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)
There's a lot of wrong directions we can go right now.
HAMISH: Yeah, exactly. Like, a LOT of wrong directions.
FIONA: Yeah, not many landmarks to get out of here.
This is desert, real desert, as far as I'm concerned.
This is being in the desert.
(LAUGHS) This is desert, yep.
(HAUNTING MUSIC)
Yeah, definitely a camel ride through here
would make it a bit quicker.
I feel like I'm waiting for that ball to go past.
You know, in the movies, where it just floats through...
Oh, the tumbleweed? Yeah, the tumble...
Yeah.
Biggest concern about today is probably gonna be the heat.
(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
And trudging through the sand.
Could be pretty hard, actually.
(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Should we check our bags first? Good idea.
I think check the bag first. Let's see what we got.
Let's have a look.
Nah, nothing in there. Got my hat.
Oh, oh, oh, oh! Oh, hello! (ALL EXCLAIM)
I got a map. I got a map.
There we go - hold this up and we can work it out.
(LAUGHS) You cheeky buggers!
ADAM: A precious rock.
Is it meant to kind of look like a Pyramid or something like that?
Well, that says Pyramid Rock.
Pyramid Rock? OK.
Oh, oh, oh, oh! I think I've got a compass as well.
Alright, well, you hold this.
Do you know how to read one? Yeah, I do, yeah.
Yes. 'Cause I don't.
I haven't really done any orienting since I was at school,
which is many years ago,
but we should be pretty well right...
..hopefully.
OK, so, we're going that way? Alright.
(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
The sand's already in my shoes.
Oh, good. Sand's in. That's the end of it.
(JAUNTY INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Adam is really just moaning today!
His ankle's sore, his back's sore,
he's lagging behind, dragging his feet.
Walking too fast there, guys.
What's wrong? I thought you were fit!
I am - I could go all day,
but I'm not gonna exert myself straight away.
You gotta save it, you know?
He's like a little old man, isn't he?
He goes on about me being in a nursing home.
He should be in the nursing home.
Come on!
As Adam battles the heat,
Team Navy have far bigger issues to worry about.
No, they're not in Egypt,
and they still haven't worked out the clue
as to my whereabouts in Jordan.
Wait, did it say 'rocks'?
Oh, "a reminder of Egypt, as in maybe a...
WOMAN: A carving, a carving.
Or maybe a little... like, a little pyramid.
Yeah, a pyramid.
SOFIA: Right now, I think we are the strongest team here.
We're really good at working together.
We've got a yogi.
There's not even footprints here. This is pretty incredible.
We've got a farm boy. (LAUGHS)
We have got me, the little hippie nomad.
Team Taxi No More!
And Madi - a bit of a loudmouth.
MADI: What are we gonna eat today, guys?
So, it's a pretty interesting dynamic,
but I'm pretty confident that we will get to DG first.
The only thing I know about the Pyramids
is that you can see KFC from them...
(LAUGHTER) ..and it wrecks it for everybody.
Why on earth...
Because people always whinge about how it's not as good in real life
because there's a KFC right there.
I like to do things totally differently.
(JAUNTY INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Get out of it!
I'm not really a cat or a dog person, so we got alpacas -
probably because they remind me of myself.
They're very curious creatures, and they are batshit crazy.
(LAUGHS)
Why did I have to do the laugh to prove it?
(LAUGHS)
I'm really excited to go on this trip,
because this is my midlife crisis.
This is, like, the funnest midlife crisis anyone's ever had!
Instead of buying a motorbike, I'm going around the world!
So, I'm ready for anything.
No, that's all I know about Egypt.
Righto. So, we're looking for KFC, then?
Distracted by a potential mirage of a Zinger Burger,
Team Navy have made a catastrophic mistake.
By not checking their backpacks for a map and compass,
they are now heading in the opposite direction.
MADI: Where are we going? SOFIA: No idea, Mad!
TOMMY: The unknown.
LOLA: I think we're here.
So, we have to go through just over there.
I'm confident we're heading in the right direction.
I think you're right, CK, actually.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)
SAXON: Where do you reckon we are in the world right now?
No idea.
After finishing last in Turkey,
Priscilla was voted out by the rest of Team Gold.
They're hoping the new sense of harmony will pay off in Jordan.
Well, I don't think there'll be any snakes out here.
Really? You think there would be snakes?
Yeah, probably...oh, my god! Oh, my god!
(LAUGHS) Ohh!
Ohh! Sorry.
Don't...if you do that this whole trip, I'm gonna actually, like...
Alright, let's go. ..really struggle.
With map and compass assistance,
Team Gold and Scarlet are making progress.
(LAUGHS) It all looks the same. It does.
Let's hope we're right.
But Team Navy's radar is definitely off.
MADI: Guys, we're gonna be exhausted if we just walk to every rock.
How are we gonna work this out?
(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
They've been trekking the wrong way for over three hours...
..and with temperatures soaring,
this is valuable energy they can't afford to waste.
TOMMY: We've got no idea if we're walking in the right direction.
We're looking for, like, little clues,
like, or, "Oh, yes, that's it."
But we haven't had that once.
I think that we should do a stocktake of what we've got.
TYLEN: Righto.
SOFIA: Oooh, I've got torches!
Hold up.
No way!
Look what I found in my bag.
Stop it! OK! OK, OK, OK, OK, OK!
Now they've found the map and compass,
Team Navy can start back in the right direction...
(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)
..but finding me at Pyramid Rock is going to be a tough slog,
and they can't make any more mistakes.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)
Has anyone actually used a compass in real life?
It's, like, literally, directly right of those.
Like, literally, of those. TOMMY: Yeah.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)
Team Scarlet are on track,
and within 5km of Pyramid Rock...
HAMISH: Oh, there we go. FIONA: Yeah!
Now we gotta work out which one's the Pyramid.
..while Team Gold's correct use of their compass...
LOLA: Hang on!
..has led them straight to me.
Can anyone else see that white thing over there?
(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)
Yeah, I feel like that's it.
(MOMENTOUS MUSIC CONTINUES)
Oh, yeah, look! Look, look, look, look, look, look! There's DG!
CK: Oh, my god! Whoo!
Where were one of those when I needed one?
Team Gold! Assalumu Alaikum! Whoo!
Thank you! Assalumu Alaikum!
You found me! Good job!
Oh, what a relief!
Have you guys had a falafel yet?
(EXHALES)
Mmm! (SWALLOWS) Oh, that is so good!
Not dry at all. Very moist.
Falafels, in general, are amazing, so...yeah!
Welcome to the magnificent and all-encompassing Wadi Rum,
in the heart of Jordan.
(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)
None of us guessed that.
(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)
Where you're standing literally used to be underwater.
Six million years ago,
this desert was part of the Red Sea.
Now it's all sand and sun.
Already, Team Gold, you're the first to find me.
Piss off! Yes!
(LAUGHTER AND CHEERING)
(UPLIFTING MUSIC SWELLS)
Ohh!
You may think it can't get any harder...
..but as a team, your job is to find the escape zone,
which is located
in the ancient city of Petra,
and you'll need to complete a mission along the way.
But there's something you need to know about tonight's check-in.
(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
You will need to wander the desert
in search of a traditional Bedouin camp
who is willing to host you for the night.
(TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES)
With their nomadic lifestyle, there is no guarantee where to find them.
It could be a needle in a haystack,
and you only have a budget of 50 Jordanian dinars,
which equates to just over AU$100, to barter with.
As always, if you're the first team to check in,
you will get a head start tomorrow morning.
Take your items from my friend Halwan here -
which means, in Arabic, 'sweet'.
(CAMEL BRAYS) (LAUGHTER)
There you'll find your dossier as well,
which contains information on your next mission
and the escape zone location.
(DRAMATIC DRUM RHYTHMS)
Alright, guys, if I was you, I would head in that direction.
Let's go! Thank you.
Yalla, yalla! Thank you.
OK, let's approach this thing very carefully.
OK!
I can see our dossier, just popping up.
There we go. Oooh, it's quite heavy!
Oooh, more apples. Let's head off.
Well done. I know!
Super exciting being first.
It just felt so good to come back
and really put us back on the map,
and brought our confidence back up
as, you know, real competitors in this race.
We just need to make sure we don't lose the lead.
Wadi Rum has been inhabited by Bedouin tribespeople
for centuries...
..and their camps can be life-saving refuges
for travellers stranded in the desert at night.
Pyramid Rock is there.
The Bedouin camps are, basically, due west from the Pyramid Rock.
So, just going to the top of this? At the hill...
Top of this guy, and then we'll take the compass bearing from there.
OK.
(HAUNTING INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
I tell you what, the sun's getting pretty low.
Yeah.
I'm really starting to get sore legs.
(HAUNTING DRUM RHYTHMS)
With Team Gold having searched for a Bedouin camp for hours...
Oh, oh, oh! Look - tent!
See a tent? Tent?
Oh, yeah!
..they finally strike gold.
Oh, my gosh! Oh, yep.
That...well, that's, at least, a sign of life.
That could be us.
But their excitement...
Just a quick brief before we (BLEEP) go into this wig-out.
..is short-lived.
Do you think that maybe
we should siphon out some of the money just now?
And you should also waltz in with this food as well,
just so you can react.
We've been in this desert for hours now.
Like, I am so tired!
And Team Gold's meant to walk up to a total stranger
and ask to stay the night?
I don't even know what I can offer them.
Like, I've got two chillies and two pears.
Do they even eat pears out here?
We will come with you to a point of maybe 20 metres back.
Yes! Yeah!
And we'll just stand there looking like innocent lost...
We're not leaving you now! ..individuals.
I don't know if anyone's heard of stranger danger out here,
but I don't know about this.
I really hope this come off. I am dead!
This is the exact scene from a horror film,
where the main character's, like, doing something really dumb,
and you're like, "No!"
(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC) There's someone. I see someone.
(TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES)
I'm gonna stay behind the boys.
I'm definitely the side character that dies first.
Like, I'm dead.
Hello. How are you? Hi!
How are you?
Do you speak English?
Oh, amazing! Amazing!
We are looking for somewhere to sleep in the desert tonight.
(TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES)
Oh, thank you! Are we allowed to...can we...
MAN: Hi. What's your name?
Saxon.
We ended up smacking head-first into this one Bedouin guy.
The odds... are just miraculous.
Gosh, this is amazing!
And it looks like there's a bit of a fire zone here.
Oh, look at this thing!
This is amazing! We all get to sleep here.
Is this... oh, this is the actual rock.
Oh, my god! It is, Saxon! It's like a cave.
He's anchored it into it. Holy God!
This is, without a doubt,
the most special thing I've ever done in my life.
(RELAXED INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
(ELECTRONIC BEEPING)
Hey, guys. Our watches.
"Congratulations, Team Gold. You are the first to check in.
"That means, tomorrow, you will be the first to check out."
(TRIUMPHANT MUSIC SWELLS)
Yes! Such a good feeling! (LAUGHS)
We did so good!
I'm just...what a day, guys!
And what a way to end it.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)
The day isn't over yet for the other teams...
..especially Team Navy,
who are in serious trouble,
and heading to the border
with Saudi Arabia.
(TENSE DRUM RHYTHMS)
TOMMY: Are we sure that it's not over there?
Hold...hold on a second. Look at this, right?
Where's that map? Oh, yeah.
We just need to go to Pyramid Rock.
(SOMBRE MUSIC)
As long as that's north, and that's north,
well, then, it's north-east, which is where we're going,
you know what I mean?
Yep, yep! No, no, no, I see...
No, 'cause if we're following the red dot,
then we're heading north.
(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
No, we're not. It's whatever it's pointing at.
See? NE - north-east.
No, the red dot's always pointing north.
No, it's not. No!
Now it's pointing north. Now it's heading north.
So, we're going over here.
That way is north. That way is north east.
Shit.
Wait, what?
So, yeah, it's always going north.
(TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES)
Disaster strikes for Navy.
Misreading the compass has them more lost and confused than ever.
They are now five hours away from me, and tempers are fraying.
(TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES)
MADI: Apparently only I know how to read a compass.
I can't stand people who say they can do stuff
just to try to be a hero.
The red is always pointing north! I thought you guys knew that.
Actually, mmm...um... Yeah, righto.
I trusted you guys!
I'm...I'm done!
Still to come...
FIONA: How beautiful is this?
..the quest to Petra...
It's like we're on the surface of Mars.
..inspires a fledgling romance.
ADAM: I'd kiss a camel.
MAN: Go ahead! Go!
(CAMEL BRAYS) Ohh!
Nah, that's not my type of girl, that one.
This is not a dating show.
TYLEN: Taxi!
While one team is left high and dry...
We wait here? Yeah, wait here.
..in the desert.
I'm sure he'll be back soon.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)
(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)
DAVID GENAT: Our teams
are in Jordan's unforgiving Wadi Rum Desert,
navigating through an alien landscape
unchanged for over two million years.
Their goal is to reach me at Pyramid Rock
and collect their dossier.
But so far, only Team Gold have made it,
and checked into a Bedouin camp for the night.
LOLA: Oh, my gosh! Thank you.
What is this? I think they're dates.
Oh, thank you so much!
While Team Gold enjoy the fruits of their labour...
Definitely the best moment on this trip so far.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)
..Team Scarlet are getting closer to Pyramid Rock,
but Team Navy have misread their compass,
and are heading the wrong way,
towards the border with Saudi Arabia.
That way is north. That way is north-east.
TYLEN: Shit.
Wait, what?
So, yeah, it's always going north.
We have royally effed up.
We have been walking the wrong direction for hours!
We're screwed!
God knows where we are!
I swear we should be down the... (LAUGHS MIRTHLESSLY)
Who even knows how to use a bloody compass?!
Like, we've got phones and maps for that shit!
Like, we don't...who... it's 2023, baby!
Um... Yeah, righto.
I trusted you guys!
Madi responding like that's not helping at all!
No! We're a team. We need to work together.
But I literally said, "Has anybody used a compass?"
Apparently only I know how to read a compass.
I don't think that they've really thought about
the fact that we could be here overnight
if they keep going round in circles.
(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
I was just still trying to remember how to use the bastard
from when I was, like, ten!
TOMMY: Hmm?
We are screwed.
In terms of being off the mark,
we are offest the markest as much as we possibly can be.
So, we've gotta go north...
I feel like we're just in total disarray.
I need to just step up and step into coaching mode.
(GONG SOUNDS)
I would describe myself as a super loving person.
I have this gift of being able to intuitively read people,
and use that to my advantage.
No, I'm not gonna say that. Jesus! (LAUGHS)
(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
So, wait. So, north-east is that way.
One of the biggest things that drives me, as a greatness coach,
is connection.
When you put yourself in a situation,
and you've got a number of personalities
in their total dysfunction,
I will step into that leader role in two seconds.
It's that way.
Yeah, I agree with you.
Let's just get it done.
We don't wanna waste time.
TYLEN: OK, let's go.
(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
With Tommy in charge, Team Navy have new direction,
but can they make up for lost time?
(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)
Night is beginning to fall in the desert.
Temperatures will plummet below zero,
and every step will become treacherous.
Some would say my mouth's dry as a desert.
Some WOULD say.
(LAUGHS) You're an idiot.
For Scarlet, Pyramid Rock can't come soon enough.
The joints are feeling it today, the muscles are feeling it today.
We've been walking for hours,
and I'm definitely worried we've stuffed up big-time
and somehow put ourselves in a position to be last.
HAMISH: I mean, I am thinking that thing looks like a Pyramid.
Yeah, it does, actually.
We can see it, Adam, we reckon!
I reckon that's Dave!
Team Scarlet!
(WHOOPING)
You found me!
Oh! Sight for sore eyes, Dave!
You look a little worse for wear, guys. You doing alright?
Yeah, it was a bit of fun, that's for sure.
A little bit different,
but, yeah, we're here now - that's all that matters.
Well, Team Scarlet...
(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)
..you're the second team to find me.
(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM AND YELL)
Yeah! Yeah! I'm really stoked!
Alright, Team Scarlet,
there's something you need to know about tonight's check-in.
(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
Using your maps and compass,
your team will need to wander the desert
in search of a traditional Bedouin camp
who is willing to host you for the night.
(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
You're talking my language now. I like this.
(LAUGHS) I know you guys hate it!
On my little friend down here, you'll find a pack.
Inside that pack is your dossier,
which contains information on your next mission
and the escape zone location,
and some supplies in case you don't make your check-in
and need to sleep under the stars.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)
Yeah, cool!
ADAM: I'm glad we came second, but I hate camping.
I hate not hopping into my bed, not having an aircon.
Good luck! Get going!
Yeah, let's go!
Whoo!
Someone tell me it's all a big joke...
..and this isn't happening.
Ohh! (SIGHS)
The fun begins.
This ain't fun, man.
(RELAXED MUSIC)
Meanwhile, back at the Bedouin Hilton...
(JAUNTY INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
..the dessert special is being served.
Camel milk?
No, I haven't tried.
Yeah! Does it taste good?
OK, I'll give it a go.
(MIDDLE EASTERN RHYTHMS)
Thank you so much! MAN: You're welcome.
Yes.
(LOLA LAUGHS)
Oh, my god! What does it taste like?
It tastes good, man.
That's not bad at all!
That's really good!
It's just normal milk. Yeah, I know, right?
That's amazing! Yeah, it was delicious.
Thank you so much! You're welcome.
What an experience.
It's like something you see in movies.
Like, I literally see, like, scenes like this in movies,
but I've never experienced this,
and then to meet Ali, who is just so kind,
and to understand someone else's way of life, that's travelling.
That is truly travelling.
I love hearing that there's coffee. (LAUGHS)
Team Navy have been walking the wrong way for hours.
Now it's starting to go dark,
and temperatures are dropping.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)
MADI: Well, what do you reckon the other teams are doing?
I reckon Hamish would know how to read a compass.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)
We're definitely going too fast to my liking.
TYLEN: Three against one, my friend. Speed up!
SOFIA: I think the only thing worse
about finding out we've been walking the wrong direction
is Madi complaining about it now!
Like, we get it! We get it! We (BLEEP) up!
We've ballsed this up. We're probably last.
Oh, stop it, Mads! (GROANING)
We do not need to be reminded! The deed is done, baby girl!
(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
So, if DG's gonna be anywhere,
I reckon he'll be on that other side.
Do we reckon that's DG up the top?
(CHEERING AND SCREAMING)
I cannot run!
Team Navy!
I expected to see you hours ago.
Oh, oh, oh, don't even!
TOMMY: So, what's the go? Tell us the bad news.
Talk to me. Guys...
(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)
..you're the last team to arrive, alright?
First two teams are miles away.
With the help of your map and compass,
walk the desert in search of the Bedouin family
who is willing to host you for the night.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)
If you don't reach your check-in tonight,
unfortunately, you'll be sleeping under the stars.
So, you really need to motor.
Here's your bag. It's got your dossier in it.
It has all the information you need to get to the end.
(IMPACT BOOMS)
But hurry - the sun's about to go down,
and let me tell you,
it's extremely hard to navigate the desert in the dark.
Good luck! Go, go, go!
Alright, we're going this way. This way.
TYLEN: I haven't slept in the desert before.
I really hope we don't have to go through that.
Yeah, I'd say it'd be a bit chilly on my willy in the desert.
Um, not a lot of coverage around here.
So, might have to use our little backpacks.
(HAUNTING MIDDLE EASTERN MUSIC)
DAVID GENAT: Darkness falls on the Wadi Rum Desert, in Jordan.
With temperatures plummeting,
the Bedouin campfire isn't the only thing heating up
within Team Gold.
(HAUNTING MUSIC CONTINUES)
CK: The Saxon-Lola friendship does worry me a little bit.
I do feel like a third wheel.
I was very quick to select this... This location?
..this particular sleeping spot.
Why?
Well, it's straight under the rock.
Why do you wanna be close to the rock?
Well, it's also in the middle too, so I'm hedging my bets.
I'm so confus...oh! (LAUGHS)
It's definitely, like, first-row seats to 'Romeo And Juliet'.
I feel like I'm, like, the unwanted maid
in this, like, fairy-tale story.
Night, legends. Night.
(JAUNTY INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
I'm like, it's pretty cold! Like, where's my cuddle-cuddle?
(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)
But they are the only team to have checked in,
and for Team Scarlet and Team Navy...
MADI: DG said we'd get here before it got dark.
..the prospect of trekking through the night is becoming a reality.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)
SOFIA: I actually would love to sit on my arse right now,
but I just feel like...
MADI: You wouldn't get back up? Nah.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)
There's a fire in the distance, guys.
FIONA: Up there? Yeah, there's a fire.
ADAM: Oh, man! My leg!
While Team Scarlet may have found a Bedouin camp...
I'll go up!
..there's no guarantee they'll be made welcome by its owner.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)
HAMISH:
(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)
How are you?
Oh, good! (LAUGHS) Long day!
(LAUGHS) Yeah, yeah. Hamish.
Mufale. Lovely to meet you. Hamish.
Uh, is it OK if me and my two friends stay here?
Oh! (LAUGHTER)
FIONA: Fiona! Here.
Ohh! (EXHALES)
ADAM: Yeah, legs are cooked - they're absolutely toast,
but we got here.
Oh, yes, please. Oh, yes, please!
I'm with you on that, actually. Coffee? Am I gonna sleep?
No sleep? I like that!
(LAUGHS)
This Bedouin camp's so not what I'm used to.
I'm so out of my comfort zone.
I like my beauty sleep, so, we'll see how we go.
(ELECTRONIC BEEPING)
Ooh! FIONA: Oh, hang on.
(READS) "Well done, you're the second team to reach check-in.
"Tomorrow you'll be the second team to check-out."
HAMISH: There's three teams. MAN: Yeah?
We came second today. So there's... That's good.
(LAUGHTER)
There might be another team out there still looking.
DAVID: Away from the fire,
temperatures in the desert can quickly drop to below zero.
MADI: I'm actually even cold now.
TOMMY: I still can't see. Like, nothing.
Pitch black.
DAVID: And that's bad news for Team Navy
who are yet to find a camp for the night.
SOFIA: Other teams are miles ahead of us.
TYLEN: Yeah.
What's one mile? MADI: Two ks.
1.6Ks.
That sounds about right. 1.6. Yeah.
(ELECTRONIC BEEPING)
Yeah. Oh, no!
What have we got?
(READING) "Team Navy, the sun has gone down
"and it's too late to keep walking through the night."
Oh!
TYLEN: You're joking. Oh, no!
TOMMY: Adding to the annoyance of what's already happened today,
this has basically put the cherry on top.
There's more.
"Stop where you are. Make camp."
(SOFIA SQUEALS) What the frick!
We've got to sleep out here. It's pitch black. It's freezing.
Are you serious?
We also have no idea what's out here.
Like, there could be snakes, there could be scorpions.
All we have is that.
MADI: It might be a big one. Is it a tent or is it a swag. Look.
TOMMY: Yeah, nice. TYLEN: Righto, what have we got?
Well, it's a swag. And a blanket.
We have one blanket between the four of us.
Thanks, DG. Thanks.
Alright. Well, Sofia, do you want to share the blanket
and they can share the swag?
Calm down. Let's just jump in it, eh?
Just lay down.
Just when I think things can't get any worse
like, we've gotta spoon each other now
and I don't really want to spoon Madi 'cause she's annoying me a bit.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Eugh! What else has he given us?
Has he given us anything to eat?
Use your bag as a pillow.
Bags as pillows, 100%. I've got my shawl from today.
I've got a raincoat.
We are definitely coming last. Everyone spoon.
I'm literally going to go straight to bed. Don't comfort me.
Good night, guys.
Alright, I'm spooning you, Mads, is that alright?
Tommy, your line, mate.
Everyone stay warm.
See youse in the morning. Good night.
DAVID: Dawn over the arid beauty of the Wadi rum desert.
A memorable start to day two
and one of the most romantic sites in the world.
(WHISPERS) That is stunning.
It's like we're on the surface of Mars.
It is, hey. It literally is.
It's crazy.
It is so beautiful though.
It was really nice going to sleep last night
but I did notice two heads were close together.
I do feel like a third wheel.
I'm really worried about my position here.
So, today I just have to make sure
we don't come last to the Escape Zone.
DAVID: To complete their mission, the teams must travel to Petra.
This spectacular ancient city is one of the Seven Wonders of the world.
Once there, they must climb up to the High Place of Sacrifice
and photograph the sacred stone altar.
But with Petra over 100 kilometres away,
finding reliable transport is essential.
SAXON: We want to try and get to a town
where we can get a bus or something to Petra.
Can you drive us? Yes.
How much will it cost us to get you to drive us into town?
OK.
We wait here? Yeah, wait us here.
Do you have to do something else?
How long will it take you to do that and come back?
Forty minutes? Yeah.
We have tried to arrange some transport with Ali.
He's got some other commitments.
OK. But we'll wait here for you.
OK. Thank you.
He has to go make a trip to town before he comes back to pick us up.
But it's 40 minutes there, 40 minutes back.
So, a bit worried that we are losing Ali.
LOLA: Oh, gosh, I hope he gets back quickly though.
(CHUCKLES) Yeah.
DAVID: After checking in second,
Team Scarlet have woken up with a new understanding
and respect for life in the desert.
My legs are stuck in my sleeping bag, like, diagonal.
Yeah, so are mine. Aren't they.
Oh, I'm stiff as a board.
I'm right next to Fiona and I'm hearing...
(SNORES) Oh, get out!
It wasn't me! I don't sn...
I would have thought a buffalo was right next to me.
Well, I know it's not me. You know why?
'Cause I didn't get a wink of sleep.
Ahh, so, you're going to be just joyful today to be with, eh?
Oh, yeah. I'm not gonna be happy today.
You've been bitten by something on your neck.
On, hopefully it was a hot blonde.
Adam hasn't got a chance with a hot blonde.
He hasn't got a chance with a hot brunette.
He hasn't got a chance with anything.
I hope you're not classifying yourself as a hot blonde.
No, I'm not. In my heyday I would have been.
Oh, yeah. Whatever.
It is beautiful. Look at the sun coming up over there.
Are you able to take us into Petra?
Yes, yes. Good, good.
DAVID: Another night in the desert is the last thing Team Navy want.
(MADI GROANS)
DAVID: After failing to reach a Bedouin camp,
they had to sleep out in the open.
I haven't slept in the desert before.
A bit chilly on the willy in the desert.
Oh, jeez!
Oh, man. That is the crappest sleep I've ever had.
And to make things worse, Madi is still complaining.
Eugh!
I'm definitely getting pretty hungry.
If I manage to flail a local today
to give us a lift somewhere,
the first thing I'm gonna ask for is coffee.
I just want coffee.
It does (BLEEP)suck. It really (BLEEP) sucks.
SOFIA: It does.
DAVID: Team Navy must now make their way to Petra.
We just wanna get out of here.
We have to find someone to tell us where Petra is...
Yeah. 100%. ..otherwise we're screwed.
Can I see, sorry?
So, we just gotta get to Petra.
DAVID: For Tylen, today brings the chance to redeem himself
after misreading the compass and getting the team lost yesterday.
To be honest, I'm a bit worried.
I think it's a bit over of a known that we got lost yesterday.
Which is, you know, my fault.
So, I need to make sure we don't come in last today.
Alright.
Let's do this. Where are we going?
So, we've got to find like, some civilisation.
So, we're gonna ask someone how to get outta here.
If we see a car, we'll flag them down.
Absolutely.
Alright, let's go.
MADI: Eugh, OK.
Taxi!
DAVID: It's another scorching day in the Wadi Rum Desert.
And our teams must travel north to the wondrous city of Petra
where their next mission awaits.
Jordan's quite full of desert, isn't it.
DAVID: After scoring a ride with their Bedouin host,
Team Scarlet have forged ahead and are the new leaders...
..overtaking Team Gold
who have been waiting over an hour for their host to pick them up.
SAXON: I'm sure he'll be back soon.
LOLA: Oi, this is a car.
Is this his car though? It's a white car.
Yes, that's him. Is it?
Is it him?
Hey!
Whoo! It is, it is him.
Great. Let's get our stuff and move.
Look, it's a small setback given that we had to wait for Ali.
Broom, broom. Let's go.
We were first to check-in and I really hope that, you know,
it doesn't offset some of that time advantage.
Can we throw our stuff in? Yep.
Alright, let's go, go, go.
Thank you, boss.
The hopefully the other teams are at a camp
with a host that doesn't quite have as good English or a car.
Bye-bye.
Look at this big bad boy.
Ooh, that's a fatty camel.
(MADI GROANS)
Guys, it is so hot already.
DAVID: Tea Navy have been wandering the desert
in search of a lift to Petra.
It's been an arduous 24 hours that's beginning to affect team morale.
And Tommy's sanity.
Desert chic.
This stick will be used
to use the energy of the land,
and it'll guide us in the right direction.
See, it's already turning.
It's taking us to the right direction.
DAVID: It seems Tommy's high tech navigation system is paying off.
Wait.
And he's hoping it's not just a mirage.
Hey! Sof.
There's a car coming this way.
Yay!
When we saw the car it was like a mirage.
Just sort of a little twinkle.
Someone's like, "It's a four-seater car."
How far is Petra?
Yeah. 1.5 hours. Yeah.
Is there any chance that you could take four of us out of the desert?
And to Petra?
(EXHALES)
Is there any possibility you could do it for less than 30 Dinar?
No?
Let's just do it. It's 30 Dinar.
Will you give us coffee for the 30 Dinar?
(CHUCKLES) Wait.
Thirty Dinar and a free coffee. (INDISTINCT SPEECH)
I really need coffee.
Large flat white with almond? Yes, please.
DAVID: While Navy have finally found a car out of the desert...
Yeah, that's the town, yeah. Oh, this is your village.
DAVID: ..leaders, Team Scarlet are arriving in the outskirts of Petra.
(SPEAK ARABIC)
Alright.
Eugh, stiff!
Yeah, feel that. My hamstrings are screaming.
Similar to Turkey, I think we're in a really positive mind frame
and we're focusing more on not being the last team.
Alright, guys. Can't believe we're in Petra.
It's unreal.
DAVID: Completing this mission
will test every drop of our teams' endurance,
starting with climbing 900 steep steps
up to the High Place of Sacrifice
where they must photograph the circular stone altar,
once the bloody scene of animal sacrifices
to the ancient god Dushara.
After heading back down, it's a 2.5km-long hike
at 900 more steps to reach me at the Escape Zone.
Look at this site, guys. Look at all that.
Stone. Oh, my god! This is beautiful.
That's so old as well. That's beautiful.
Look at that. I know.
You have to fully crank your neck all the way up to see it.
ALL: Oh, wow!
This has got to be the Treasury.
Oh, yeah.
(MAJESTIC MUSIC)
DAVID: Leading the race, Team Scarlet
are the first to experience the incredible beauty of Petra.
Oh, my god!
DAVID: One of the Seven Wonders of the world.
Whoa! How beautiful is this!
Wow. It's insane. This is up. This is a moment.
As a short bloke, I'm about 1/10 of what that was.
Yeah, it was so big.
Bent my head back like I was sitting front row at the movies.
You don't see anything like this from where I'm from.
It'd be a mad photo in front of that.
Oh, yeah.
And there's camels everywhere.
I'd kiss a camel, I reckon. Go ahead. Go.
What, get close? Yes, get close.
Aw, isn't he cute?
(CAMEL GROWLS) Ooh!
You're just desperate to kiss something, obviously.
The poor camel.
She wasn't having a bar of it.
No, that's not type my type of girl, that one.
She was gonna bite my nose off.
Fiona is jealous that I was trying to kiss a camel and not herself.
No! I don't want you to kiss me, Adam.
It's just coming from a jealous... No.
Believe me, there's no jealousy involved there.
I felt sorry for the camel.
Oh, these stairs are gonna be... Yeah!
Ooh, wow.
There are people coming up very red-faced and flustered.
It was a big day yesterday. A lot of hiking.
And I think today is probably gonna be a bit of the same.
Here it is, there's a sign here. OK.
High Place of Sacrifice. OK.
Yeah, right.
Oh, we've got some walking to do. Oh, yep.
DAVID: As Team Scarlet take their first of many steps...
Team Gold are hot on their heels.
Let's go! Into Petra.
This is where we get our walking boots on.
Oh, my gosh, they weren't kidding when they said it was a high place.
Oh, my god! After the desert! Oh, the legs!
DAVID: Arriving in Petra last,
Team Navy know they have a huge challenge ahead.
I can feel the morale of the team is quite down.
We're all frustrated and annoyed.
We feel like we've made some good headway
but at the same point, we don't know.
DAVID: With limited time and money to catch up...
Yay, horses.
Fast horses, fast horses.
..Madi has become distracted
with the unrealistic thought of riding a horse up 900 steps...
I'm Team Horse.
..causing tension amongst the team.
OK, our problem is we don't have much money.
It doesn't matter about the time or money anymore, we're coming last.
We don't know that though.
Make the most of the adventure that you've got.
We don't know that.
Literally like, we just need to get there.
Why? The only concern here is the money.
Alright, let's stop talking about the horse. Like, no more horse talk.
Can we just stop talking about horses?
I just want Sofia to go on a horse.
Thank you, thank you, but no thank you.
Are you not in it to get to the end quickly?
No!
(TENSE MUSIC)
Madi, you got no respect sometimes. MADI: I don't care.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
DAVID: The spectacular sandstone city of Petra
where all three teams are battling to reach the High Place of Sacrifice
to take a photograph of the circular stone altar
before hustling to meet me at the Escape Zone.
ADAM: My legs are shaking. Ooh!
Well, you want to fall down there. Far out.
Adam's complaining about his back, his knees, his ankle.
That's what happens when you carry this rig around all day.
(SPLUTTERS WITH LAUGHTER)
You get sore. You get sore.
That's a big stretch.
Come on. This is as fast as my legs go, man.
You're not walking fast so don't kid yourself.
It's a marathon, not a sprint.
That's how I'm looking at it right now.
OK, OK.
The old ones always burn out in the end.
Do they? Yeah, they always do.
Well, I haven't burnt out yet and you're certainly burning out.
I might have to split my pants at this point.
Don't sook.
I wish I'd brought something to shove in Adam's mouth,
a dummy or whatever, to stop him from whingeing.
It's up this... Look at this sign.
It says High Place. Yeah.
So, off to the right. Yeah.
(PANTING) That way.
Yeah.
DAVID: After overtaking Gold first thing morning,
Team Scarlet have led the way.
But with 900 steep steps between them and the altar,
have they got the endurance to make it to the top?
Oh, wow, this is weird.
Don't lose your footing. Look how high we are.
Oh!
(PACY MUSIC)
Look at that though. That's unbelievable.
Like, all the little... I know.
The doors all the way in. I'm loving it.
I've always wanted to come here
but I didn't imagine it would be this beautiful.
All the ancient ruins.
It's just gorgeous. Mind-blowing, really, these views.
Unbelievable.
And out the back there you can see the Monastery up on the...
Oh, this is beautiful.
Alright. Wow.
This is unbelievable.
(ALL PANTING) Yeah, this is nice.
Far out.
Oh look, guys, I reckon that's...
It looks like a circular. OK.
It does also look like an altar.
Got it? Wow.
Camera? If my eyes deceive me.
Let's have a look here.
(MOMENTOUS MUSIC)
It's got to be. Yeah, look.
That's it.
We're tracking comfortable but we can't slow down.
We can only go faster from here.
Alright, let's take a big photo here.
DAVID: Given the phone for the sole purpose
to complete the photo mission,
Team Scarlet are all smiles for their selfie.
Three, two, one.
Oh!
Yes, thank you.
Oh, thank you so much.
It's greatly appreciated.
DAVID: With Team Gold suffering on the climb,
last place Team Navy have arrived at the start.
Yeah, set of stairs just here.
This looks like it.
High Place of Sacrifice trail.
Great. Bit of a shortcut.
Double whammy, team.
Mmm?
I'm gonna struggle hard on these stairs.
Stairs are not my forte.
Guys, can I stop and take Panadol? SOFIA: Yeah.
Guys? Yep.
Madi's gonna take Panadol. Yep.
The whole time Madi's sort of been just 'plondering' behind.
She just wants to keep her same pace.
I feel we really have to pace ourselves.
Guys, stairs, me.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
But yeah, to be honest, I'm a bit worried.
It is my fault that we got lost yesterday
so yeah, not looking good for me.
We need to hustle big-time.
If we skip every second step there'll be only 250 steps.
Oh, well done, Tylen.
Thanks, Tylen. We're halving it already.
Saxon, can you carry my bag? Yeah. Kidding.
I would happily carry your bag, man.
OK, let's go.
Oh wait, are we... Yeah, there's another team.
Oh! (LAUGHTER)
As if! As the how did you get there?
(OVERLAPPING SPEECH)
Hey! Hold the phone!
When I saw Scarlet I thought,
how the hell did they get in front of us?
OK, now we've got a step in our stride, guys.
Let's go.
Let's get 'em.
I don't think we had any point we were that stressed
that we were last.
Until we saw Team Scarlet.
LOLA: We have to find the actual thing to take a photo of.
I'm panicking.
I have absolutely no idea if we are second or third.
You're joking me.
Because we haven't seen Navy at all.
I think if we come last it could be my head on the chopping block.
Oh, yeah, here it is.
That's it! That's it!
Let's take a photo.
Alright. High Place of Sacrifice, tick.
Beautiful. Let's go.
We're only a few minutes behind Scarlet so we need to catch up.
Like, we got this. Let's go.
DAVID: High above the magical Petra,
Team Gold and Team Scarlet have completed their final mission
and are on their way back down.
Next stop for them will be the Escape Zone,
at the Monastery,
known as Ad Deir in Arabic.
This iconic religious monument dates back to the first century AD.
But to get here means facing another 900 agonising steps.
The last team to reach me here...
will have to vote out one of their own.
It's been an uphill battle for Navy
but they're finally closing in on the High Place of Sacrifice.
SOFIA: That's a nice little muster up here, eh?
That'll get you going. (STRAINS)
The steps get bigger. Oh!
(PANTING)
Home stretch up.
Well, we might have to... Guys, guys, guys!
Yay!
We just made it to the highest sacrifice.
Oh, my gosh, it looks like a key.
Dude, that's tiny.
I actually have no idea what it is but that hike was tough as S-H-I-T.
Let's go. The sun's settings so we're gonna want to hustle.
Hustle!
Oh, my goodness. They scared me.
Which way we going from here?
We need to go up and around so it's gonna be that way.
Right. Yeah.
When we saw Gold, we couldn't believe it.
That gave us a bit of a spur along
and then we thought, hand on, guys,
we've overtaken them now, let's go for it.
These pants are the worst to walk in.
These shoes are.
Yeah, that does not look good. And these shoes.
Pants and shoes. Worst mistake ever.
Oh, look. Oh! Horses.
(INDISTINCT SPEECH)
Team Scarlet!
Yay! Oh, my goodness!
Come on in. That's stunning.
How beautiful is that!
You like my place? ALL: Yeah.
FIONA: Gorgeous.
Mmm. Guys. What are we eating today?
Have you tried Jordanian apricots?
Yes. No.
They are amazing. So juicy.
Eugh!
Hope you've saved three. Yeah.
Well, you made it, guys. Yeah.
Mmm. (SMACKS LIPS)
Oh, those are good. (LAUGHTER)
Team Scarlet... Yeah?
Please.
You're the first team to arrive at the Escape Zone.
Yes!
Well done. Whoo!
Great job, guys. Soak it up.
Yeah! Soak it up!
Well, how was that today? Oh, good.
Hard. Just a couple of steps.
The body's feeling it in all sorts. Anywhere in particular, Adam?
Yeah, I'd say my legs and my groin's
probably feeling a lot of it right now.
But if we've got to do it again to win, we'll do it again to win.
I like to hear that. That's that fighting spirit, mate.
Yeah, I'm feeling good. Yeah.
How did the mission go? I'm very keen to see it.
I did ask you three times if you took a photo.
(LAUGHS) Mate, we've got that.
Very good.
And we've got a selfie mate, as well.
Great job, guys.
Mission complete. ALL: Yes!
Beautiful selfie. Yep.
(LOUD, BRAYING)
He liked it. He agreed with it.
He loved that. He's going ape, man.
And speaking of that noise, there are three mules over there.
They're your escape vehicles. Oh! OK.
So, jump on and I'll see you in the next country.
Wherever that may be.
Yeah. Sounds good.
See you, Dave.
Enjoy the ride.
Well done, guys. Fantastic, eh?
It feels good to win. Two countries in a row.
Feeling good.
I tell you what, honestly, looking back on it all,
Jordan's actually been pretty beautiful.
There's been some very good sights.
Sun's been out. I love the sun.
Travelling the world has taught me to get out of my comfort zone.
And you know, you gotta grow somehow.
So, I think this is how I grow.
Bring on the next country.
HAMISH: He rides straight into me. (LAUGHS)
CK: See a monastery anywhere? Not yet.
MAN: You're almost there. LOLA: Thank you.
Thank goodness. Almost there.
(MOMENTOUS MUSIC)
Hey! Team Gold!
Whoo! Welcome to the Monastery at Petra.
Oh, wow! Whoa!
Team Gold, you are the second team to arrive.
(CHEERING) Yes.
Well done. Well done. Yes.
Oh, thank god. Thank goodness.
Do you have something for me? OK.
Let's see. There we are.
Very nice. Good selfie?
Team Gold, you live to see another day.
Yes! Whoo!
There are three mules over there. ALL: Oh!
Yes! Thank you so much. Whoo!
Saddle up and I'll see you in the next country.
ALL: Thank you. Wherever that might be.
Well done, guys. Thank you.
Keep working. Thank you.
CK: Second place. Not first but not last.
That's what's most important.
The journey continues.
We've got to keep going. It may only get harder from here.
It's alright. It still can't be as hard as yesterday.
On our way to the Escape Zone now.
Got a bit of a bad feeling.
We haven't seen the other teams.
Bit worried, eh?
I think we might be sitting at the third position, to be honest.
DAVID: With the sun nearly down
and Navy heading in the wrong direction,
it's time for me to step in.
(GRIM MUSIC)
Yeah, it would be hilarious if we don't come third
and we're first or second.
Like, I would actually be sitting there going, are you for real?
I would actually lose my shite. (LAUGHTER)
Eugh!
It would be more than ideal.
Oh, I see DG! (LAUGHS)
Oh, what?
Oh, my gosh! DG.
When I saw DG, I actually saw such disappointment in his face.
We are screwed.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Oh, I see DG. (LAUGHS)
Oh, what!
Oh, my gosh! DG.
Eugh! G'day!
Hi. G'day, Dave.
Team Navy, it's very good to see you
but I'm not sure why you're all so happy.
We're not.
I know I don't have to tell you this but you're the last team to arrive.
Yes!
And guys, we didn't even make it to the Escape Zone.
Yeah.
Sofia, I've gotta ask you, where do you think this went wrong?
I 100% think it was yesterday.
Like, there was kind of no coming back from yesterday
considering we took like, a 4-hour detour.
So, you were a bit despondent when you started.
Yeah.
But we have to get down to some business.
One of you is going home today.
Team Navy, there's $100,000 at stake.
You've got two minutes to discuss, as a team,
and decide who you are going to send home.
It has to be a majority decision.
Choose wisely.
I was gonna say, I can save all of this.
Chuck me on that plane back to Australia, team.
I am going to love you and leave you.
(TENSE MUSIC)
Wow.
If there's no arguments.
I've had a blast.
I've been on the adventure I wanted to.
And I'm ready to see my kids again.
Thank you. That's me.
Madi, I've got some pretty serious adventures lined up for you.
I believe you.
If you want adventure, we're just at the beginning.
My team are gonna take that.
They're gonna have the best time, I know they are.
Alright. Well, how do you think the team's gonna go without you?
I don't think they're gonna win.
(HARSH MUSIC)
Ouch.
Not expecting that. Not on, girl.
I don't appreciate what she said. It was a bit of a kick to the guts.
(HARSH MUSIC)
So, Team Navy, are you all in agreeance that Madi is going home?
Yep. Yep.
Alright. Unfortunately, Madi, your journey stops here.
The Rush is over.
Thanks.
Say goodbye to your team.
See you. I really wish you well.
Thanks, Mads.
(INDISTINCT SPEECH)
Look after yourself. See you.
So Madi, come and join me on this side.
Well, Tommy, Sofia, and Tylen, your escape vehicles are behind you.
