Moat CrossingOne teammate was in an inner tube with a rope tied to it and had to paddle across. Once across, they had to throw the tube across to their partner, and pull them to the other side.
Steps of KnowledgeThe most famous and most beautiful female spy of all time was Mata Hari. Just prior to World War I, she moved to Paris and became a dancer. She was very beautiful, and soon she was famous throughout Europe. Soldiers and princes fell hopelessly in love with her, but she wouldn't marry any of them. When World War I began, both the French and the Germans hired her as a spy. Working for the French, her assignment was to make a German general and a German prince fall in love with her so she could get secret information about their army. Working for the Germans, she made a French officer fall in love with her and got information about his army. The French found out she was a double agent and had her arrested. Mata Hari, the greatest spy of all time, refused a blindfold and blew kisses at her firing squad. Later, the police searched everywhere for her secret codebook, but it had vanished.
Temple GamesThe Silver Snakes are 11-year-old Gareth and 14-year-old Ronette. The Blue Barracudas are 11-year-olds Gigi and Bryan. Codebook Exchange (Climbing Wall)[]On one side of each wall before each player were two plain green secret code books, and on the opposite side were two brown code books each marked with initials "MH" (like the one in the temple). When Kirk gave the signal, Ronette and Bryan had to climb up and grab one plain green codebook, stick it to their shirt, and swing to the opposite side, exchange their plain green codebook with the brown initialed one, and bring the brown initialed codebook to where the plain green codebook was previously placed. The first player to swap all four codebooks or the player furthest along in 60 seconds won. Bryan dropped one of his codebooks while Ronette was declared to be further along, awarding her a half pendant of life. Blowing Kisses (Bungee Soap Mat)[]According to Olmec's legend, Mata Hari was a real romancer. She even blew kisses at her firing squad. When Kirk gave the signal, Gareth and Gigi had to grab a kiss from their center bins, crawl out to the corners and place the kisses on the green and dark blue velcro shapes on their firing squad man. Once a kiss is placed, they then had to slide back to the center and repeat the process. The first player to place three kisses on their firing squad man or the player furthest along in 60 seconds won. Gigi had all three kisses on her firing squad man, awarding her a half pendant of life. Gareth only managed to place two. Underground Document Pass (Dragon Tunnel)[]
Temple RunGareth went into the temple first. Starting at the temple gates at a stance, he quickly sprints into The Cave of Sighs as soon as Kirk told him to go. While in the cave, Gareth had a bit of trouble hoisting himself up on the first ledge. Once he got his grip, Gareth then heads up to the upper crawl tube, unlocks it, and climbs down the ladder into The Wheel Room. Without a problem, he turned the wheel and lifted the stone slab, where he then opens the door to The Throne Room. Quickly sitting on the throne, Gareth then headed directly into The Holes of Python. The room may have slowed him down a bit, but he did not give up. When the Temple Guard popped out, Gareth was not scared, he simply paid him his pendant with 2:04 left. (He even casually said hello to the guard)! Once he was in the middle, Gareth decided to climb up the ladder to see if he could take the short cut to The Treasure Room. But he came up unsuccessful, so he had to continue along The Holes of Python. After crawling through the next two holes, Gareth then opened the right door to enter into The Tomb of the Ancient Kings. In the tomb, Gareth swiftly took off the lid of the sarcophagus and found the key, and he used it to open the other door that would take him back to The Holes of Python. Thinking on his feet, Gareth decides to plow through The Stone Wall instead, and ends up in The Well. From there on, Gareth made a smart move by climbing up into The Shrine of the Silver Monkey. In the Shrine, Gareth picked up Ronette's half pendant and set it aside so he can fit the base on the pedestal. (And for her to notice when she reaches the shrine). However, he forgot to adjust the base until he put the middle piece on. But the base was still not on right, but after Gareth jammed the head down, he pressed the monkey in place and unlocked the door to The Treasure Room. Now being one room away from the codebook, the only thing Gareth has to do is get into The Heart Room via. The Observatory or going directly to The Heart Room from The Treasure Room. Unfortunately, just like what the French found out about Mata Hari and had her captured. The second temple guard popped out from the doors just as Gareth opened the door to The Observatory and was captured before he could advance further. Thus, taking him out of the temple with 43 seconds remaining. It was then Ronette's chance to run through the temple. She simply followed Gareth's path but was not as fast as he was. Regardless on whether she moved fast or not, Ronette simply didn't have enough time to retrace her partner's path to The Heart Room as it was still a long way to go. Because of what little time they had, the temple run ended when Ronette landed in the Holes of Python.
