Emmy Nomination for Episode 5

00:00:07
The Amazing Rewatch
Hello everybody. Welcome to The Amazing Rewatch. This is season 16, episode 5.
00:00:14
The Amazing Rewatch
And it was a good episode. It was so good, in fact, that it was submitted for an Emmy Award for Best Reality Competition Show, but it lost to Top Chef.
00:00:26
The Amazing Rewatch
Okay. I've never seen Top Chef, but that's strange that a cooking show would I like cooking shows. Yeah. Yeah, it was it's a good episode. It's like a quintessential amazing race. And we didn't even have a roadblock in this episode. Yeah.
00:00:41
The Amazing Rewatch
Yeah, it's an interesting episode.

Journey Begins in Hamburg

00:00:42
The Amazing Rewatch
So we started off in Hamburg, Germany. And it says during the pit stop, the teams boarded a bus from Hamburg, Germany to ah to travel to a secret location.
00:00:55
The Amazing Rewatch
Yes. Which is, we've never really done that before. i told Sadie it it felt like Destination X. Yeah. I haven't finished that show, but we watched a couple episodes of it.
00:01:08
The Amazing Rewatch
Did you finish it? I did. I finished the series. Destination X. It was interesting. it was it's and It's a good show. it more It's less Amazing Race and more like...
00:01:20
The Amazing Rewatch
um Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? Kind of. With Big Brother mixed into it. Yeah. Yeah. It wasn't my favorite, but it was interesting. Yeah.
00:01:31
The Amazing Rewatch
I don't think I wouldn't say it was my favorite either, but it was cool to like see the the cities that they went to. And it took a couple of episodes to kind of get into it to be like, this is even what's going on. Yeah. Because I was thinking that they were going to be going to like these obscure places, but they went to like major cities.
00:01:48
The Amazing Rewatch
Like Rome. Rome, Paris. Yeah. ah Vienna. Yeah. Yeah. So, they get to...

Baguette Challenge in St. Menehoud

00:01:59
The Amazing Rewatch
They say, we believe we're in France because they went, like, southwest of Germany. So, they figured they're in France, which they are.
00:02:08
The Amazing Rewatch
But on the bus... Joe is talking about his knee. Yeah. This is important because he says that his knee is hurting, but he's like, but we're still doing really good.
00:02:21
The Amazing Rewatch
We've been in the top three. Imagine what we could do if I had full use of my leg. Yeah. Or when it gets better. He's talking a big game, and Louie and Michael are like, we're kind of annoyed by that. Mm-hmm.
00:02:32
The Amazing Rewatch
So... That will come into play later. So they were first place last episode. They depart at 935 and it says drive yourself to the town of St. Menehoud. Menehoud.
00:02:45
The Amazing Rewatch
Find the Boulangerie de Fontaine and buy a fresh baguette to receive your next clue. Then Steve and Allie depart at 955. Joe and Heidi 1011. Cord 1036. Carolyn Brandy 1044 Dan and Jordan at 1057.
00:02:57
The Amazing Rewatch
carolyn brandy ten forty four and dan in jordan at ten fifty seven They have $20. They have $20. So there's kind of a big gap between teams. and Louie and Michael get to that bakery and get a baguette. And the clue says drive to Monde de Massage to find your next clue. The clue is inside the bread.
00:03:19
The Amazing Rewatch
And then Joe and Heidi and Steve and Allie get out of their cars. They help each other each other find that bakery. Yeah. So Brent and Katie leave at 1136.
00:03:31
The Amazing Rewatch
And we don't have Jeff and Jordan leave until 1217. Yeah. yeah So they... And they don't really go... Like once they get to the detour. Yeah. because They're basically there the whole time. and There's no roadblock on this episode.
00:03:48
The Amazing Rewatch
So there's not like a lot of navigation for people to get lost. So being behind is very... ah what's the word I'm looking for? Precarious. Yeah. And I thought it was funny because Katie says like, let's go buy a map.
00:04:02
The Amazing Rewatch
And the way that she said map, it just that made me think of her infamous interview. And there's another funny direction in here. They don't have maps. Yeah. Okay. Here's another funny direction map thing with them later. Yeah, a little bit later.
00:04:18
The Amazing Rewatch
So Louie Michael get to that clue and it's a detour and the choices are in the trenches or under fire.

Detour: Morse Code or Barbed Wire

00:04:25
The Amazing Rewatch
Okay. We have to rewind this quite a few times. So, and I think I got all of it, but so for both sets of, or for both choices of the detour, they have to dress up in world war one attire as an American dough boy. What does that even mean?
00:04:41
The Amazing Rewatch
I've heard the term before, but I don't know what that means. I'll look it up while you... And then they have to join the battle of their choice. So the choices are in the trenches or under fire.
00:04:51
The Amazing Rewatch
In the trenches, they go um into a World War I trench and choose a communication area. With the battle raging around them, they'll have to or they With only a field manual for reference, they must decode a message being sent to them in Morse code.
00:05:08
The Amazing Rewatch
And then under fire... is crawl 100 yards under barbed wire through the muddy booby-trapped field to receive a message and then crawl back, basically.
00:05:21
The Amazing Rewatch
And ah at the end of both detours, once they have the message, they attach it to a homing pigeon to deliver the message that the war is over.
00:05:32
The Amazing Rewatch
And then caution, you turn ahead. Yeah, so this one, i would probably I think we would probably choose under fire. Yeah. Because Morse code is hard. Morse code is really hard.
00:05:43
The Amazing Rewatch
And we'll find that out later. Yeah. But Louis and Michael do choose under fire. So American Doughboy is a nickname given to American soldiers in World War one It could, it's, there are various possible origins, including the use of pipe clay to whiten their belts, the appearance of troops covered in dust on marches, or a type of fried dough.
00:06:08
The Amazing Rewatch
that they would eat. So, um, we are in Northeastern France. This is our fifth time in France.
00:06:19
The Amazing Rewatch
This is our fourth country this season. So this area or this town is called St. Meneoud. It's kind of a weird But the ah that's like how Phil said it, but this website says it's Saint Manu.
00:06:38
The Amazing Rewatch
meant Oh. that's easier to say. It's in northeastern France. um Dom Perignon was born here. Dom Perignon is the Benedictine monk who made champagne.
00:06:52
The Amazing Rewatch
i was going to say, isn't that the name of an alcoholic beverage? Yeah. And... um
00:06:59
The Amazing Rewatch
Yeah, it's,
00:07:01
The Amazing Rewatch
there's not a lot of information about this town because it's pretty small. It's in like, it's a small town in the countryside. yeah um But there's this thing, it says, there's the town and its several restaurants pride themselves on serving a local specialty called pied de cochon or pig's trotter, which is pig's bones cooked for hours to the point of softening enough to make them edible.
00:07:26
The Amazing Rewatch
No.
00:07:28
The Amazing Rewatch
That sounds awful. So every time we talk about a place, we're like, okay, we want to visit that place. Yeah. I don't want to visit this place if I have to drink pig bones.
00:07:40
The Amazing Rewatch
Will they like eat it? like They kind of look like steak. Ew. I was thinking like in a soup. No. like They're just soft enough to like eat. No. That's even worse. Yeah.
00:07:52
The Amazing Rewatch
They should have made that as a task. Yeah. These tasks were cool though. Like, so this um area, i wonder if they do like these World War I reenactments all the time or if this was just like an amazing race set up.
00:08:07
The Amazing Rewatch
Yeah. um But it seems like this area was ah a place where there was a lot of World War no, World War one fighting. There's like the trenches dug and Like the Germans really wanted this area, but the French were able to hold hold it.
00:08:26
The Amazing Rewatch
Yeah. Sadie is a little bit further than me, but we have been watching Downton Abbey. And it's... I'm in the part of... In the World War era.
00:08:37
The Amazing Rewatch
Yeah. Yeah. It's a really interesting period of time. Yeah. I know a little bit about World War I, but I would be interested to learn more. What? That's how this meme was like.
00:08:49
The Amazing Rewatch
ah time traveler Time traveler goes back in time and he um is in like France during World War I and the he's like, what year is it? And they're like, 1918. He's like, oh, so we're in World War I. And they're like, World War what?
00:09:04
The Amazing Rewatch
What? Because it's called Great War. Great War, yeah. But now there's World War II, so it's World War I. World War what?
00:09:14
The Amazing Rewatch
There's going to be another one?

U-turn Drama: Michael, Louie vs. Joe, Heidi

00:09:16
The Amazing Rewatch
a um yeah so yes and then there's a you turn ahead so michael and louie choose under fire and they start doing that um then we have it the next few teams getting the baguettes baguette baguette baguette um jet and jord jet and cord dan and jordan and carol and brandy And then Brent and Katie, not too far behind them.
00:09:43
The Amazing Rewatch
And then Steve and Allie and Joe and Heidi are now at the detour and they also choose under fire. And Jeff and Jordan are now leaving finally. yeah So like Michael and Louie are already doing the detour and Jeff and Jordan are just leaving and all the other teams are on the way. so And they struggle to get out of town. There's like roundabouts and they have a hard time with the directions. Yeah.
00:10:06
The Amazing Rewatch
So Michael Louie are doing their detour. and seems pretty physically difficult. um Michael is really motivating Louie. They get the message from the so soldier, but now they have to crawl back the whole way.
00:10:20
The Amazing Rewatch
Steve and Allie and Joe and Heidi are crawling not too far behind them. Jen Jen and Cor, Dan and Jordan and Carol Brandy are at the same time. They also choose all ah all of them also choose Under Fire.
00:10:31
The Amazing Rewatch
Yes, for this deter. Yeah, deter. That's what cord says. Lee and Michael finish the deter. And it says, head south down the road to receive your next clue. Caution, you turn ahead. It's a blind you turn.
00:10:45
The Amazing Rewatch
um So they decide, they're like talking to each other. Should we do Steve and Allie or Joe and Heidi? Steve or Joe, who should it be? And they they're like, Joe needs to be knocked off his pedestal. He needs to be humbled.
00:10:57
The Amazing Rewatch
So they choose Joe and Heidi to be U-turned. And I'm like, that's really dumb. If you're at the front of the pack and you're going actually use your U-turn, use the person you know is going to depart the the pit stop last yeah and just get them out of the way.
00:11:13
The Amazing Rewatch
But Jeff and Jordan haven't been super tough tough competitors. Yeah, threats. And it was annoying to them that Joe thought he was like, wait until I am have my knee and you know we're a third place what we could do you know yeah so they use their u-turn u-turn and heidi and it says march yourselves into town once there find the church the church massage and so they do that what does massage mean in french um
00:11:49
The Amazing Rewatch
um french because these people think it's massage they're like oh we're gonna get massage massage in french is massage yeah oh yeah i think it's just like the name of the place because it doesn't really say there's a translation
00:12:06
The Amazing Rewatch
because massage is a massage a commune in france
00:12:11
The Amazing Rewatch
So it was probably like a county of where St. saint Manu is, you know. Yeah. Just like an area, I think.
00:12:20
The Amazing Rewatch
um And so they get to that church. They

Antique Bicycle Challenge

00:12:22
The Amazing Rewatch
have to change. It says, inspired by the 1903 inaugural Tour de France, teens must wear traditional riding gear and ride an antique bicycle over 100 years old through a challenging four-mile course to the pit stop. The last thing to check in may be eliminated. So that's when we're like, oh, well, there's no...
00:12:40
The Amazing Rewatch
roadblock on this episode yeah pretty much whoever finishes a detour at a specific time like that yeah and they had to like drive to the boulangerie and then drive to this place and then yeah that was it and they don't seem very far from each other no so the tour de france like they said was established in 1903 and
00:13:00
The Amazing Rewatch
um it's an annual men's multiple stage road cycling race held in France. It's the oldest and most prestigious of the three Grand Tours. There's the Euro d'Italia or the Vuelta Espaรฑa.
00:13:16
The Amazing Rewatch
But the Tour de France is obviously the most well-known. Why isn't men's only? They don't have a women's Tour de France? Well, they did one starting in starting in um
00:13:29
The Amazing Rewatch
like so in like the 80s and 90s they did like women's sections of the tour but not the whole thing but in 2022 I think is when they started like the Tour de France Tour de France Femme was held in 2022 oh yeah similar race for women was held under various names between 1984 and 2009 and Following criticism by campaign campaigners, the women's peloton was held between 2014 and 21. And then the first Tour France Femme was 2022.
00:14:02
The Amazing Rewatch
And it's really long and really hard. It's um like 21 day long stages covering approximately 2,200 miles.
00:14:15
The Amazing Rewatch
Each year the race alternates between clockwise and counterclockwise. counterclockwise circuits of France. Counterclockwise. And it usually ends on the Champs-ร‰lysรฉes in Paris.
00:14:31
The Amazing Rewatch
2,200 miles? Yeah. Over how many days? 21 days. Ugh. Yeah. That sounds awful. 21 legs over 23 24 days. I'm not a big biker.
00:14:42
The Amazing Rewatch
So that would not be. Yeah. Yeah. Something I would enjoy. And it's always in August. No, it's always in July. That sounds hot. It was held in August um in 2020 during COVID. The winner of 2025 um somebody from Slovenia.
00:15:01
The Amazing Rewatch
i can't really pronounce his name, but he's won four out of the last six times. Hmm. And like the second place guy has won two of the last six times. So they're like just kind of competing against each other, it seems like.
00:15:13
The Amazing Rewatch
Yeah. um So Lance Armstrong has won it, but did they take away his title? um Or did he win?
00:15:22
The Amazing Rewatch
Yeah, he won, right? I think he did. Let's see. It's hard to type with one. Yeah, I guess I could type up or ask these questions. No, he did not officially win. Oh, because he was stripped of his seven consecutive titles.
00:15:35
The Amazing Rewatch
Jeez. Between 1999 and 2005. So, yes, he won. He took first place but was not able to have the title.
00:15:44
The Amazing Rewatch
Mm-hmm. That's too bad.
00:15:46
The Amazing Rewatch
While he crossed the finish line first seven times, the official records show no winner for those years. So the second place person doesn't get to be the winner? I guess not.
00:15:55
The Amazing Rewatch
Well. Okay. So, ah yes, Louie and Michael head down the bike trail. It says it's a difficult four-mile course. Sorry, were you? ah Yeah, I'm done.
00:16:09
The Amazing Rewatch
Okay. But it didn't seem like it was that hard. No, was like flat road. So... Probably the hardest part was riding the old bike. Yeah.
00:16:19
The Amazing Rewatch
And putting on those weird helmets. Yeah. Yeah, it was like they put like a French hat over top of a bicycle helmet. So they were like ginormous. They looked like Mario. Mario and Luigi. Yeah. Yes. Yeah.
00:16:31
The Amazing Rewatch
And they end up as being team number one again. And they both win a 55 inch HDTV. HDTV.
00:16:37
The Amazing Rewatch
HDTV. So back to the detour. Like all the teams are doing the.
00:16:44
The Amazing Rewatch
crawling through the trenches, the under fire. Steve and Ellie finish second and Heidi and Joe are right behind them. They've come up to the U-turn and see that Heidi and Joe have been U-turned.
00:16:55
The Amazing Rewatch
And they're pretty pretty bummed about that. They obviously can figure out that as Michael and Louie because they were they were the only ones ahead of only ones ahead of them. um So their second detour is the one that's the the morse Morse code.
00:17:08
The Amazing Rewatch
And the first one, the first time they get it like pretty quickly and it says, they say Viva da Liberte. Viva la liberty. But it's wrong. And have to go back again.
00:17:20
The Amazing Rewatch
Brandy and Carol. So when Brandy and Carol get there, Brandy tells Carol to choose the detour.

Brandy's Detour Discontent

00:17:26
The Amazing Rewatch
And Carol chooses under fire. And Brandy is so mad about The whole time she's like, this is not what I would have chosen. She's like, this is not what I signed up for.
00:17:34
The Amazing Rewatch
yeah Yes, it is. You signed up for the race. Yes. These things are on the race. Also, every single time Carol chooses a detour, you're so mad about it. So don't let her choose. Like, it's really annoying. Yeah. Like, if you have that much of an opinion.
00:17:48
The Amazing Rewatch
Yeah. And she says, smart people do Morse code. Dumb people do this. Yeah. And she is, she whines about it the whole time. I bet they would have started the Morse code and she would have changed her mind very fast.
00:18:01
The Amazing Rewatch
If she would have picked Morse code, it she would have been like, this is too hard. Let's switch. But if Carol would have picked Morse code and it have been too hard, she'd be like, I hate this. I didn't sign up for this. Like she's very negative. Dan dan and Jordan finished, Jet and Cord finished and Carol and Brandy pretty close behind them.
00:18:21
The Amazing Rewatch
That pigeon that flew in their face. Yeah. Like right into Jordan's face. He's like, did you have to fly in my face? They're funny. They're really funny this episode. Yeah.
00:18:32
The Amazing Rewatch
They start to get a little annoying because they're like annoyed with each other. And he's like, stop talking. But the things they say are funny. Yeah. um When they're going from the detour to like where they have to change their clothes, they're Dan and Jordan are just like walking and Jet and Cord run past them.
00:18:53
The Amazing Rewatch
And they're like, this is, if they want to walk, know this is our opportunity to pass them up. Oh my gosh. I typed Jet and Cord run past Jet and Cord. That doesn't make sense.
00:19:04
The Amazing Rewatch
So and Cord, Dan and Jordan and Carol and Brandy also start biking around the same time. So like we said, like when they finish is pretty much when they finish.
00:19:15
The Amazing Rewatch
Except for Jet and Cord ran a little bit faster, but. So team number two are Steve and Allie. Team number three are Jen and Cord. Number four are Dan and Jordan. And number five are Carol and Brandy.
00:19:24
The Amazing Rewatch
So Brent and Katie finish the detour. And they're supposed... I'm confused at what happened right here. It says go south... like so Yeah, go south down the road. So... They're like walking around. Brent has like a compass on his watch.
00:19:41
The Amazing Rewatch
So they just start walking south. And this is where he says the funny thing. He says, I wonder if they mean South is in a direction or as in just go that direction. and Katie's rubbing off on you. Yeah.
00:19:56
The Amazing Rewatch
I keep saying, like, I keep doing digs at Katie, but we have, we mentioned in the first ah episode, like, she was really under pressure and her mind just went blank and I would probably do the same thing. So I'm not like judging her. It's just funny. And I think she laughs at herself too. So, yeah um, yeah, so they just start walking and they run into the clue at the church, but there's another clue that they were supposed to get to first. The one with the U-turn that says to go to the church.
00:20:30
The Amazing Rewatch
Okay. Okay. So, yeah, they missed the clue that says, what does it say? um March yourselves into town once there. Find the church of Masiche or something like that.
00:20:43
The Amazing Rewatch
Yeah. They missed that clue. Yeah. So, they get on their bikes and bike to town and pull up to the finish line, the pit stop, and Phil says,
00:20:54
The Amazing Rewatch
you are the sixth team to arrive. However, you did not pick up your clue after the detour. So you must pick up that clue before I can check you in. Yeah. And they're like, ugh. So, little bit before that, Jeff and Jordan had arrived, finally.
00:21:08
The Amazing Rewatch
But they have to do their speed bump first. And it says, Jeff and Jordan must reinforce a section of the front of the trench using branches when an army engineer is satisfied they'll receive their next clue. So they have to build like a weave They have to weave the branches along the dirt wall of the trench.
00:21:29
The Amazing Rewatch
And so they start working on that. In the meantime, john and Heidi are still working here on their Morse code. Yeah. And they're getting really frustrated because they've done they've been listening to this for a long time.
00:21:41
The Amazing Rewatch
It would honestly just start to sound all the same. Yeah. It sounds it sounds that all the same anyway. yeah Like, I just don't understand how you like determine where one letter stops and one, the next letter begins.
00:21:56
The Amazing Rewatch
And how do people have that memorized? Right. Like how like people can just sit there and listen to that and know what it's saying. Yeah. So crazy. So Jeff and Jordan finish their speed bump and they are walking through the trenches. They see that Joe and Heidi are still there.
00:22:12
The Amazing Rewatch
So that, so they're a little bit like get a little bit of more pep in their step. Except for Jordan doesn't. Jeff does. yeah Jeff's like, I have a one in eight chance of many winning a million dollars.
00:22:24
The Amazing Rewatch
And you would think that would give people a little bit of like a push, but not Jordan. She doesn't seem to even care. Yeah. And when they're having to crawl through the mud and stuff, she's doing it really slow and he's getting really frustrated. and um Brett and Katie do pick up that clue and check in as team number six, officially.
00:22:46
The Amazing Rewatch
joe and Heidi keep getting the wrong message. They're getting, like, really emotional. and Jeff and Jordan actually end up finishing their detour and biking it into town and checking as team number seven. Yeah. Yeah.

Joe and Heidi's Elimination

00:22:58
The Amazing Rewatch
So at this point, it's really dark and Phil comes walking into the trenches where Joe and Heidi are he says, unfortunately, you are the last team and you have been eliminated from the race. And the message that they were supposed to get was, we will prevail. la France.
00:23:13
The Amazing Rewatch
Yeah, that's long. Yeah. And like the ones that they were giving were like, the war is over. Yeah. and They might have just been guessing at some point. Yeah. Viva la Libertรฉ and stuff like that. Yeah. And they tried Viva la Victoire. Yeah.
00:23:27
The Amazing Rewatch
So in Phil says, what do you think about that U-turn? And I like Joe's response. He says, I'm not happy about it, but that's part of the game. It's part of the competition. I'm like, yes, that's the attitude to have.
00:23:42
The Amazing Rewatch
They have been towards the front of the pack.
00:23:47
The Amazing Rewatch
It kind of made me feel, I'm glad that the second U-turn wasn't a physical thing that was going to make Joe's leg hurt worse. Cause I think that'd be really mean. Yeah. But, yeah.
00:23:58
The Amazing Rewatch
It worked out. they did It did exactly what they wanted it to do. What Louie and Michael wanted it. Yeah. yeah Yeah. It was a risk because Joe and Heidi were not that far behind them. Yeah. And they knew that Jeff and Jordan would be, like, way far behind them. Yeah.
00:24:14
The Amazing Rewatch
And they would be, like, an automatic elimination. Mm-hmm. So, very interesting the way they used that. But it worked. Yeah. Maybe they weren't even intending to eliminate them.
00:24:25
The Amazing Rewatch
just wanted to push them to the back of the pack. Yeah. um But yeah. so they, joe and Heidi, find them.
00:24:37
The Amazing Rewatch
They are the first romantically involved East Asian American team on the amazing race. Really? Yeah. Yeah. We've had other Asian teams, but they like brother and sister.
00:24:49
The Amazing Rewatch
don't know. Other variations of teams, but. Okay. And they are still married. Nice. They live in El Segundo, California.
00:25:03
The Amazing Rewatch
I'm looking at their Facebook. They post a lot about sports. I think their son. I think. I know. Their son plays football. He was the first string quarterback for Cornell University and just got drafted into like the European Football League.
00:25:26
The Amazing Rewatch
Interesting. And then they also have an adult daughter who went to Syracuse University. So they have really smart kids. Definitely have the Asian American... Well, that's the thing that they said, too. They're like, we aren't dumb people. Like, we're smart people and we can't figure this out. Like, that was a really hard detour. Yeah. um Joe's posting is, like, pretty sporadic, but um Heidi posts a lot.
00:25:51
The Amazing Rewatch
Where did she go? um She posts a lot about her kids, her son's football.
00:25:57
The Amazing Rewatch
But I just wanted to...
00:25:59
The Amazing Rewatch
show you Okay, so like you know how Facebook has like their, when they put jobs, like former employee of whatever, whatever. So she was a former manager of mergers and acquisitions at Fox Sports, the former business development manager for the Barbie division at Mattel. Wow.
