"The Amazing Race 35" [6] Trivia Quiz

Answer: Irish Sea

Racers booked their own tickets to Dublin, Ireland upon arriving at the tenth Pit Stop, and headed out on the penultimate leg of the race with a thousand mile flight to the British Isles. Upon their arrival, racers had to locate waiting vehicles and drive themselves to Forty Foot on the edge of Dublin Bay in Sandycove. Upon arriving there, teams had to don their bathing suits and swim out to a buoy in the chilly Irish Sea to collect their next clue.

Answer: Two

After the cold plunge, racers needed to drive themselves to the Gaiety Theatre to find their next clue, and what they found there was a Road Block task that required they join the famous Irish phenomenon, Riverdance. Though performances for these skilled dancers could last for up to two hours, racers only needed to learn thirty-seconds of complicated dance steps, performing them onstage to get their next clue. Corey, Joel, Steve, and John hit the stage for this one to become lords of the dance and collect their next clue.

As Corey and Steve had not completed enough Road Blocks to this point in the race, they were required to complete this per their clue.

Answer: Hurling

Once teams got their steps in, they could collect their clue from "Riverdance's" producer and drive themselves to Croke Park to get their next clue. Here, racers were surprised to find a second Road Block, requiring that the team member who did not have six Road Blocks to their name engage with the Irish sport of hurling, heading to the field to run the pitch, then hurl their slitter through the uprights to get their next clue. Because of the Road Block counts, this meant that Rob and Steve had to do a second Road Block in the same leg while Greg and Garrett hopped in for their teams.

Answer: James Joyce

After their second Road Block, all teams had to do was head into the city to find Toner's Pub and scratch a literary itch. Upon arriving, racers needed to memorize two separate passages, both found in James Joyce's famous Irish novel, "Ulysses". If both team members could recite their lines perfectly, they would be able to continue racing to the final Pit Stop.

Answer: Steve and Anna Leigh

After a tough leg through Dublin, racers left Toner's Pub and proceeded on foot to the last Pit Stop waiting in front of St. Patrick's Cathedral, the oldest such building in the Irish capital city. Rob and Corey managed to snag a win-- their first in eleven legs-- when they hit the Pit Stop mat this time, and in addition to heading into the final leg, they won enough Expedia Key Cash to take a trip for two to Fiji.

After several hard-fought legs, father-and-daughter team Steve and Anna Leigh arrived on the mat in last and were eliminated, leaving the U.S. "Amazing Race's" first-ever all-male final three to head into the finale.

Answer: Space Needle

Leaving Dublin, Ireland, the final three headed over the North Atlantic and Canada and landed in Seattle, Washington. After their lengthy flight, racers had to locate a marked car in the SeaTac International Airport parking lot and determine, based on an ornament on their dashboard, that they needed to drive themselves to the iconic Space Needle.

Upon arriving at the Space Needle, racers could take a number and ascend the elevator to the top. Once in the upper floors, they needed to rig up and take a walk around the outer perimeter to get their next clue.

Answer: Three

Finishing their walk around the roof of the Space Needle, racers could head to the exit to locate a man who would let them into the Chihuly Garden and Glass House. There, they would find the clue box containing the race's only Scramble, sending all three teams to complete a series of tasks at their leisure. To complete the Scramble they would need to travel to three spots in Downtown Seattle:

At the Seattle Glassblowing Studio, racers needed to properly glassblow, creating a glass sea-float to the proper width to complete the task.

At The Showbox, racers would have to construct a full stage setup for a local grunge band.

At Emerald City Trapeze Arts, all duos needed to learn and perform a trapeze routine, completing a knee hang catch to keep racing.

Answer: Model plane

Upon completing each component of Seattle's Scramble challenge, racers wouldn't receive a clue envelope, but a piece of a model seaplane-- one of the two wings or the body. When all three pieces were combined, they would have all the info they needed to continue on to their final challenge waiting at the Kenmore Air Harbor, right at the top of Lake Washington.

There, all teams would converge once again to wrap up the race.

Answer: Clue prompts

Once racers reached the Kenmore Air Harbor they had to commit to one last memory task, this one testing pieces from each leg of the race preceding the finale. At the site, racers had to collect red and yellow kayaks, placing them on a series of provided racks.

The catch was that all of these kayaks and their paddles featured country names, Road Block prompts, and Detour options. If they could place all thirty-two kayaks into the correct order, they would receive their last clue.

Answer: Greg and John

If teams could complete their memory challenge they could hop into their vehicles and race to the finish line waiting for them on the grounds at Clise Mansion in Redmond, Washington. There, managing to sneak ahead of Joel and Garrett, Greg and John managed to snag the win by landing at the end first, becoming the million-dollar prize-winners after twelve legs in eight countries and nearly twenty-five thousand miles around the globe.

They were followed only two minutes later by Joel and Garrett in second place and then by Rob and Corey in third.
