Moat CrossingTeams have to swing over the water one teammate at a time using a long rope suspended from above.
Steps of KnowledgeIn the War of 1812, British General Ross captured Washington D.C., and went to arrest the First Lady, Dolley Madison. "Madam…" he shouted, "you are under arrest!" "Listen, General," said Dolley, "what's your rush? The table's set. Take a load off. Tiffany, get these men some food." Ross protested, but everything smelled so good. "You can burn the place later." Dolley said. "Believe me, it'll still be there." She sat at his elbow, and while Dolley was playing airplane with the General's Cream Corn, her servants were secretly taking the paintings and the documents out the back door. When Dolley got up for water, the General grabbed her arm, but she gave him her bonnet as collateral. Then she skipped out the back door to Virginia with the White House valuables. "I wanted to move, anyway," she said to Tiffany. The furious General Ross burned the White House down, but kept her bonnet.
Temple GamesThe Orange Iguanas are Ashlie and Matt. The Purple Parrots are Dwayne and Jessica. British Vessels (Boats)[]During the War of 1812, the British deployed their navy in the Great Lakes and along the Atlantic coast to attack American cities. In this game, Matt and Dwayne had to capture a British vessel sitting off the coast. Both male players were sitting in a wooden boat. When Kirk gave the signal, they had to push off and row over to the British vessel, grab it, put it in their boat, pull themselves back to the harbor, and climb up onto the dock. The first player to capture the British vessel and get up onto the dock, or the player furthest along in 60 seconds won. Matt made it to the dock first with 45 seconds to spare. Presidents' Portraits (Bungee Ceiling)[]After the White House burned, the Madisons had to move into a new home. When they moved, Dolley probably put up the paintings of her husband and his three predecessors. On the ceiling above Ashlie and Jessica were the portraits of those four men (Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, John Adams, and of course, James Madison). When Kirk gave the signal, they had to jump up, grab a portrait off the ceiling, and sail back down. When the player reached the floor, she had to place the portrait in the proper space according to the order of their presidency. The first player to place all four in their proper positions or the player who was furthest along in 60 seconds won. Ashlie won 4-2 with all four correctly placed. Silver Valuables (Trapeze)[]According to legend, while the British were dining, Dolley Madison was sneaking the White House silver and valuables out the back door to safety. Beside the teams were two swings. When Kirk gave the signal, Ashlie and Dwayne had to place a piece of silver between her feet, then swing out to meet Matt and Jessica in the middle. Once there, Ashlie and Dwayne had to transfer the silver and swing back, while Matt and Jessica bring it back to their side and place it in the bucket. Then, both players had to repeat the process. The team with the most silver pieces at the end of 60 seconds won. The Orange Iguanas won 2-1 after time was up, sending them to Olmec's Temple.
Temple RunMatt went first into the temple, moving at a fast pace. He started by going down into The Ledges where a temple guard grabbed his leg, as soon as he was rolling over to where the lower crawl tube door was. After giving up his pendant, Matt tries to open both of the doors that will lead him into The Pit, but he discovers that both of the doors remained locked. Because of this Matt had to go up into The Crypt where he had much better luck in there as he unlocks the door to The Pit after pulling on the second book from the skeleton. Thinking on his feet, Matt rushes to The Pit, swings across, (almost slipping in the process), and unlocks the door leading up to The Observatory. Up there, Matt quickly aligned the stone column within 6 seconds and heads down into The King's Storeroom. In the room, Matt proceeds to aggressively smash the pots to find the key. But just as he finished smashing the second pot, the second temple guard captures him and takes him out of the temple with 2:06 left on the clock.
