The Dragon Lady and the Blue Pearl is the thirty-third episode of Legends of the Hidden Temple. It was the twenty-eighth episode to air. Moat CrossingThe Moat required the first players to climb across using the knotted ropes overhead, then toss inner tubes across the moat for the second players, who would pull themselves across the water using the rope the inner tubes are attached to.
Steps of Knowledge  A promo photo of this episode (taken from Kirk Fogg's website). Protected by the Great Wall of China was the Forbidden City, home of the Empress of China. In the center of the Forbidden City, in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, sitting on her throne was the Empress, also known as the Dragon Lady. Standing before the empress was a messenger from the Queen of England, John Smith, who said, "Empress! I come bearing gifts from our Queen." "Foreigners are welcome in China", she said. She nodded to a minister, who stepped forward and handed Smith an enormous blue pearl and a letter to the Queen of England. "Give this to your Queen and go in peace." With a wave of her hand, the Empress dismissed him. Outside, Smith put the pearl in his pocket and started on his way. Suddenly, the streets were filled with running people. The treacherous Dragon Lady had ordered the Chinese people to attack all the foreigners. The pearl eventually ended up in the Temple.
Temple GamesThe Red Jaguars are 13-year-old Robbie, who likes to surf, and 11-year-old Christine, who wants to be a doctor to make millions of US dollars. The Orange Iguanas are 12-year-old Albert, who collects baseball cards (has roughly 600), and Jennifer (also 12 years old), who wants to be a lawyer to also make millions of US dollars. Draggin' the Dragon Pearls (Climbing Wall)[]According to legend, the Dragon Lady had a giant blue pearl. Here, Robbie and Jennifer get to decorate the wall of the Forbidden City with five giant pearls. When Kirk said "go", they had to climb up and fasten their first pearl to an empty spot on the wall and then climb back down and repeat the process. The first player to attach all five pearls or the team with the most pearls on their wall won. Robbie and Jennifer tied with two pearls, awarding them a half pendant each. Lady Tunnel (Dragon Tunnel)[]The last empress of China was called the Dragon Lady, because she fiercely protected her power. Before Christine and Albert are two two-headed snake dragons that need to be made into ladies. When Kirk said "go", they had to take a wig from the starting side and place it on the other side. Then, they will grab the wig on the other side, crawl back through and place it on the starting side. The first player to make their dragon into a lady or the player further along in 60 seconds won. Albert made his dragon a lady with 22 seconds remaining, awarding him a half pendant of life. Silk Bolts (Body Wrap)[] 
Temple RunAlbert went into the temple first, moving at a moderate pace. Starting off by heading into The Room of the Royal Gongs first, he was able to unlock the door leading to The Troubled Bridge after pressing on his second gong. Walking across the bridge, Albert then makes his way into The Observatory, where he spins the celestial lights and was able to unlock the doors leading to The Heart Room and The Treasure Room. However, Albert was a bit hesitant on what room should he head into next. After some time, he eventually decided to head into The Treasure Room. But just as he opened up the treasure chest, the first Temple Guard popped out from behind the doors, causing Albert to get startled and he even attempted to run away from him as well! Though of course, Albert had to give up his pendant to continue onwards, and so he did. But after that encounter, Albert got confused on where to go, and despite Kirk telling him to continue forwards, he attempted to start heading back by going into The Heart Room! But after Kirk told him that he's going the wrong way, Albert immediately heads the other way and opens up the door leading into The Shrine of the Silver Monkey. In the shrine, Albert grabbed the middle piece first, but he then had to put it aside as he needed the base first. Eventually, Albert started to pick up the pace and assembled the monkey statue at a fast pace. Sadly, no short-cuts opened up, so Albert then enters The Room of Three Torches, where he takes the elevator down into The Well. Thinking on his feet, Albert then smashes through The Stone Wall, and into The Tomb of the Ancient Kings. Unfortunately for Albert, his temple run came into an end when the second temple guard popped out from the golden doors, causing him to get startled by the guard and was then tightly grabbed, before he was taken out with 1:05 left on the clock. Being one room away from the pearl. Now it was Jennifer's turn to try to obtain the blue pearl on time. Following Albert's footprints at a quick clip, she made it through the rooms with no problem at all. (Though she had to wait a bit for the elevator to rise back up to The Room of Three Torches before she could ride on it). Eventually, Jennifer entered the Tomb with twenty seconds left. She found the key and promptly entered The Holes of Python with ten seconds left on the clock. Hurring as fast as she could, Jennifer crawl through the holes to get to the blue pearl on time. But what has to be one of the most heartbreaking moments within Legends history, is with a measly three seconds left, Jennifer lunged at the blue pearl, her arm extended out in front to grab the pearl, but unfortunately, she was still a hand-reach away. And sadly, time runs out before her fingertips could touch it.  Jennifer almost grabbed the blue pearl with two seconds left and time expired.
