We're down to the final four teams on The Amazing Race, and Leo and Jamal lead the way to the first task - and it's a stomach churning one! Teams must eat a cooked king cobra snake before they can proceed. Marie, who was the least excited to eat the Indonesian delicacy, is going to have to pick up the pace after going to the wrong location with Tim and losing lots of precious time.
Leo and Jamal eat their snakes like champions, moving on to a Road Block located at a volcano. One person must take a local taxi to a hot spring and boil a dozen eggs. Sounds easy enough, except for the fact that there's not exactly a timer on the side of the volcano to let you know when the eggs are done. Everyone is sent back to complete the task again, but Jason is finally able to get it done.
He and Amy move on to the Detour, with their choices being Paint Your Partner, where they have to paint each other like a traditional bride, or Turn Over A New Leaf, where they have to search tea fields for clipping shears. You NEVER search for ANYTHING in the race. Paint those faces all day long! Leo and Jamal found that out the hard way, spending much longer than they ever wanted to in search of those shears.
At the pit stop at Cimahi Waterfall, teams finish in the following order:
1. Jason and Amy (win a trip to Cancun)
2. Tim and Marie
3. Nicole and Travis
4. Leo and Jamal
The Afghanimals live to see another day, as Phil lets them know that this is a non-elimination leg. If they want to see the finish line, they're going to need to turn it around quickly!
Don't miss the finale of The Amazing Race, Sunday at 8/7c on CBS.
