Moat CrossingIn this Moat, teams must swing with a vine to an abandoned fishing net, then climb over it.
Steps of KnowledgeOne of the most powerful women of her time was the French Empress Eugénie. She met Napoleon III in a garden, when her watch stopped and she asked him for the time. From that moment on, the watch never left her vest. She and Napoleon married, and she became Empress of France. Once, when Napoleon was about to make peace with the Prussians, Eugénie refused. "Peace? Tah! The French Army is the strongest in the world! We declare war!" But when Napoleon got to the front, he discovered that he was hopelessly outnumbered, and his top general quickly urged a retreat. "Sire, we've lost steadily for two days; half of our men are gone, the other are whining. We must regroup!" "You're right. Order the men to retreat!" But as the retreat was sounded, Eugénie came galloping up in a hail of bullets, her good-luck watch clinging to her vest. "Retreat? Never, you cowards! General, you are fired! Order the attack." The soldiers charged, but to no avail. According to legend, at that moment, a bullet struck Eugénie, or so it seemed. In fact, the bullet struck her watch, and Eugénie escaped. Napoleon surrendered, and the watch, lost in battle, ended up in the Temple.
Temple GamesThe Purple Parrots are Courtney, who likes ice-skating and math, and Nate, who is into basketball and wants to be a lawyer. The Green Monkeys are Janeen, who likes to dance and enjoys science, and Jay, who enjoys paintball and wants to be an architect. Out from the Rear (Bucking Horse)[]When Napoleon attempted to retreat, Eugénie came galloping up from the rear, which is what Courtney and Janeen will be doing; when Kirk gives the signal, the horse will begin galloping, with whomever falling off giving their opponent a point. Whoever has the most points within 60 seconds would win; Janeen won 4-0, awarding the Green Monkeys a half-Pendant. Perpetual Clocks (Spinning Platforms)[]Eugénie's watch might have stopped, but Jay and Nate's watch will tick eternally; when Kirk gave the signal, each boy would climb onto the wheel before them and adjusting their weight to make the wheel spin. Each time either of them rotates the marker on the wheel one whole time, it will represent one minute; if either of them falls off, the wheel will stop and they will get back on and start spinning again. Whoever scored the most minutes within 60 seconds would win; Jay won 10-7, completing the Green Monkeys' pendant. Ready the Cannons! (Boulders and Chutes)[]In the heat of battle, it took teams of soldiers to load the cannons; before each team were numerous cannonballs waiting to be loaded. When Kirk gave the signal, each girl would toss a cannonball onto the overhead chute— when it rolled off the opposite side, the boys would catch it and place it in the bin, and whoever passed along the most cannonballs within 60 seconds would win. The Green Monkeys won 7-5, sending them to the Temple with 2 pendants, shutting out the Purple Parrots in the process.
Temple RunJaneen went into the temple first, moving at great pace. Starting at The Crypt, Janeen got really spooked by the sound effects upon pulling the books from the skeletons. This unfortunately caused her to become really hesitant and scared upon entering the other rooms for the remainder of her run in the temple. After pulling the third book from the skeleton, Janeen moves down to The Pit of the Pendulum and swiftly knocks down the column. She tries to use the rope to pull herself back up to the platform but was unable to and she had to climb back up instead. While Janeen had no problem climbing back up, she still continues to hesitate while moving throughout the temple. Both Jay and Kirk shout for her to move faster, and Janeen finally enters The King's Storeroom still frightened to continue with her grabbing onto the first podium for every pot she smashes. After smashing the second pot, the first temple guard jumps out and captures her. While Janeen was already prepared and took off her pendant for the guard, she still got jump scared regardless. After smashing the third pot, Janeen finds the key but only attempted to try only one of the podiums. This caused Jay to get more frustrated as he and Kirk both shouted for Janeen to try the other ones. Janeen does and heads down to The Room of the Ancient Warriors where she manages to open the door to the The Shrine of the Silver Monkey after trying the middle armor. (With that being the first armor, she tried on). But upon entering The Shrine, she quickly freezes in fright as the second temple guard comes out from the fog and takes her out of the temple with 1:29 left on the clock. Jay goes into the temple next to retrace Janeen's footsteps, he moved swiftly throughout the Temple and makes it into The Shrine of the Silver Monkey with 1:08 left. In the room, he puts the monkey together with ease and even made a smart move by grabbing two of the pieces first and then grabbing the head last. Once Jay was done, he was then allowed access to the passageway leading down to The Dark Forest. Luckily, Jay manages to find the key pretty quickly, with him managing to find it within the tree on the right and then makes his way to The Jester's Court. However, Jay encountered a production error while in the room as despite lining up with the middle wall painting correctly, it did not unlock the door to The Tomb of the Headless Kings until he tried to do it again for a second time. Eventually, Jay manages to get to The Tomb of the Headless Kings on time and grabs the watch with just five seconds remaining but couldn't return to The Pit of the Pendulum before time expired. While both team members completed the objectives in each room at a good pace. Hesitation and an unfortunate production error ultimately caused their chances of victory to diminished.
