Oh My God, the Teletubbies Go to War is the penultimate episode of The Amazing Race: All-Stars.
Synopsis
The million-dollar prize is within reach for the final four teams and, for the first in race history, two all-female teams vie for spots in the final three.
While in Guam, one Team is overcome by feelings of patriotism while visiting the U.S. military bases. Not even the thrill of zero gravity can stop one Racer from urging the crew of the plane to race faster.[2]
Story
Route Markers
The order of departure from Trilho da Taipa Pequena 2000 Park are as follows:
- Dustin & Kandice (2:15 am)
- Charla & Mirna (2:50 am)
- Eric & Danielle (3:06 am)
- Oswald & Danny (4:37 am)
Teams must fly to Tamuning, Guam. Upon arrival, teams must drive themselves to Andersen Air Force Base and, due to military concerns, take a military escort to the control tower, where they will find their next clue.
Choice A: Care Package
Teams must travel to a warehouse and must choose a loading station, fill up a 500 pounds packages with various humanitarian aid items for a neighboring island. Once complete, the teams must then board a C-17 Globemaster and participate in an air drop training exercise. Though easier, the mission would take at least half an hour. When they land, the load master would hand them their next clue.
Only Charla & Mirna chose this task.
Choice B: Engine Care
Teams must clean an engine pod on a B-52 bomber. They had to scour the associated flap section on the wing of a bomber until one of the base's sergeants feels the portion of the plane is clean enough. Once the cleaning is satisfied with their work, a maintenance officer would receive their next clue.
Teams must drive themselves to US Naval Base at Orote Peninsula, where they will be escorted to their next clue.
The team member assigned to perform this Roadblock would have to perform a search and rescue mission. Using a handheld GPS receiver and must navigate to a jungle, team members have to find one of four search and rescue training officers and receive new GPS co-ordinates from him, sending them to the landing zone, and use a radio for a smoke grenade to signal for a helicopter to pick them up and bring them back to the naval base, they will receive their next clue.
The Roadblock performers per team are underlined:
Teams must drive themselves to Fort Soledad to check in. For coming in first, Dustin & Kandice won an all-terrain vehicle for each member.
