Moat Crossing

Elizabeth1

Footboard moat

One partner from each team had an "Aztec footboard". When Kirk said go, the first partner of each team paddled across the moat. Once across, they climbed out onto the other side. That was the signal for the second partner to pull the footboard back to the other side, jump on, grab the rope, swing the footboard into the water, and pull themselves across the Moat. When the second teammate reached the other side, it was his job to hit the gong.

Steps of Knowledge

Elizabeth2

Long ago, a beautiful princess was born, but her father, the king, was very disappointed. He didn't think a girl could be strong enough to rule a country and protect it from foreign invaders. That princess grew up to be Queen Elizabeth I of England and proved him wrong. In the 1500s, while Elizabeth was queen, Spain was the richest and strongest country in the world. The only country that challenged Spain's power was England. The king of Spain hated Queen Elizabeth and thought he could defeat her, so he gathered all his warships and sent them north to attack. Elizabeth made Sir Francis Drake her royal admiral and sent him and her tiny navy out to defend her kingdom. Even though the English were outnumbered, they whipped the Spanish navy. Elizabeth welcomed her navy home and gave Sir Francis Drake a small, golden ship has a present of thanks.

Temple Games

The Purple Parrots are thirteen-year-old Mike, who plays baseball (bats 0.396), but never got any home runs, and twelve-year-old Andrea, who wants to play for the Olympic basketball team. The Red Jaguars are thirteen-year-old Joe Carlosi, who plays junior varsity football, and fourteen-year-old Gaby, who plays the piano.

Assemble the Fleet (Dragon Tunnel)

Elizabeth3

When Philip of Spain sent his mighty fleet of ships to invade the English, Elizabeth had to quickly summon her own fleet to hold them off. Before the teams were two ocean waves with a ship in each trough. When Kirk gave the signal, they pull themselves over the waves to the first troughs, attach the first ship to their helmet. Then they went to the next ones, stuck those to their helmets. Then they turned around, they came back and they did the same thing again. They went like that for 60 seconds. The first play to get back with six ships on their heads or the player with the most ships on their heads when time was up wins. Mike had six ships on his helmet - but was not back yet - when time elapsed, while Joe only had four.

Tower of London (Peanut Shaft)

Elizabeth4

When Elizabeth was young, two things happened to her: she was imprisoned in the Tower of London, and she lost all of her hair. They combined those two events in that game. At the base of their towers were several wigs and at the top several heads. When Kirk gave the signal, each player grabbed a wig, climb to the top of their towers, and placed their wigs on one of the heads. Then they climbed back down and grabbed another. The first player to get four wigs onto the heads at the top of the tower in one minute won. Obviously, no team won; Gaby and Andrea tied at three apiece.

St. George's Cross (Bungee Soap Line)

Elizabeth5

Today, the English flag is called the Union Jack. When Elizabeth was queen, it was called Saint George's cross. The players were going to make one. One player from each team started with a piece of flag on their heads. And when Kirk gave the signal, both partners pulled themselves to the center. When they got there, they passed pieces of the flag from one player's helmet to their partner's. Then they slid back to their starting points. The first partners grabbed another piece of the flag while the second partners placed their pieces in the correct upright position. Then they pulled themselves to the center and did it again. The team with the most correctly placed pieces of flag at the end of one minute won. The Purple Parrots only placed one piece on the board, and it was discounted due to the fact that the flag side was not facing outward. The Red Jaguars placed four pieces on the board. Despite the fact that only one piece was placed properly, it was still enough to win the game and the full pendant, sending the Red Jaguars to Olmec's Temple in search of the golden ship with 1½ Pendants.

Temple Run

Elizabeth6

Joe's strategy of using the direct path to the golden ship was marred by an encounter with the first Temple Guard, forcing him to take the high road; after a little bit of difficulty climbing the wall to the door, he was removed in the Heart Room with 2:16 to go.

Gaby moved at a similar pace, completely unaware of the location of the other half of her pendant, as it was common in the first season for it to be difficult to see during the Temple Run; as a result, she was captured in the Room of the Golden Idols with 1:29 remaining.
