Moat Crossing In this moat crossing, teammates cross the water simultaneously by swinging on multiple "ancient Babylonian wheels."
Steps of KnowledgeOne of the boldest adventurers of the early 1800's was the Frenchwoman named Jeanne La Mystere. When her fiancé, Pierre Chauvet, was leaving to explore The New World, Jeanne begged to go with him. "Don't be silly, Jeanne. This voyage will be too long and dangerous. It is no place for a woman." "Hogwash! I can do anything a man can." So she disguised herself as a man, took the name Little John, and signed on as a cabin boy. Even Pierre didn't recognize her and gave her difficult chores. "Little John, tote that barge. Trim that sail." All summer, she trudged along with the other members of the expedition. Legend has it that in Arkansas, Pierre was attacked by a wildcat, and Little John wrestled it into a hammerlock. "That'll teach you, you mangy cur. Now beat it!" The wildcat was so scared, it took off without its tail, which Little John kept for a souvenir. "Little John, you saved my life." "Pierre, it is I, Jeanne, your fiancée." "Sacré bleu!" On their return to France, the Lion Tail disappeared.
Temple GamesThe Purple Parrots are Marie and Claude. The Silver Snakes are Amanda and Chaz. Bon Voyage! (Boat)[]Little John traveled with her fiancé, Pierre Chauvet across the Atlantic to the New World and Claude and Chaz had to do the same. When Kirk gave the signal, they had to push their boats off and row to the New World. Once there, each player had to plant the French flag, turn his boat around, grab the rope, and pull himself back to the dock. The player to make it back on the dock in 60 seconds won. Chaz planted his French flag and made it back with thirty-eight seconds of spare time, awarding him a half pendant of life. Expedition Supplies (Zip-line)[]To feed the members of the expedition, their ship had to bring many supplies to the New World. When Kirk gave the signal, each player had to sling a backpack over her shoulder, grab the hanger above her, and swoop down to the New World on the opposite side. There, she had to drop the backpack in the bin, grab the next hanger, and zip-line back to the starting point to start again. The player with the most backpacks in her bin in 60 seconds won. Marie won the game with four backpacks while Amanda had three, awarding Marie a half pendant of life. Petit Jean (Giant Steps)[]In honor of Little John, the people of Arkansas named her favorite mountain, Petit Jean after her French name. Here, both teams had to climb Mount Petit Jean and place the name at the top. When Kirk gave the signal, one member from each team had to boost his/her partner up to the top of the first level. Once up, he/she had to turn and help his/her partner up, then go on to the next level. Once a team made it to the top, they then had to put up the sign with Little John's name. The team to place the sign won. As Claude was at the top step, the Silver Snakes accidentally dropped their sign, which gave Marie a chance to place her team's sign on, which she did. Because of this, she and Claude won a full pendant, sending them to Olmec's Temple with 1½ pendants of life.
Temple RunMarie went into the temple first, moving at a moderately fast pace. She decides to start her run by heading up into The Crypt, where after pulling on two of the books from the skeletons, she was able to unlock the door to The Ledges. Believing that this was the right way to go, Marie decides to deviate to the bottom level without pulling on the third and final book from the skeleton. Upon dropping down to the lower level of The Ledges, the first temple guard popped out from the bottom ledge and grabs Marie, causing her to scream. After giving up her pendant, Marie then uses the lower crawl tube to enter The Rock Quarry and gets to work on putting in the rocks into the bucket. Unfortunately, Marie didn't get all 5 rocks within the bucket as two of them (later one) didn't make it into the bucket. So, after Marie believed that she got all 5 in there, she then attempted to go and unlock the door to The Laser Light Room until Kirk told her otherwise. Eventually, she got the last rock into the bucket and heads into The Laser Light Room next. In there, Marie managed to successfully uncover the white light within the first block she pulled! (Very lucky!). And with that out of the way, Marie then heads into The Swamp. But upon jumping into the waters of The Swamp, the second temple guard jumps out and charges at her, leading Marie to scream again. Then the guard captures here and takes her out of the temple with 1:47 left on the clock.
While both members moved at a good pace and knew how to complete the objectives within the rooms they went in within the temple. But the constant struggles towards the end of the run was the leading key factor that led to the outcome of the run.
