Silver Cannonball Of Gandy Nanny:
Most crossing was where you had to walk on these ropes, but you had to be careful cuz they would rotate a lot. (I think thats what it was) Steps Of Knowledge, nothing too special IMO. Temple Games was red vs. orange. First game they had to put these balls between their feet and drop them into these squares. Red had a tough time and orange gets the 1/2 pendant. 2nd game was the squirting game, (just like in "Heart Shaped Pillow Of Annir Taylor). Red got squirted a lot and orange barely did so she got the 1/2 pendant. 3rd game was knocking over these boulders with cannonballs. Red Jaguars scrambled the whole time, and only knocked over 1 @ the last second, orange kocned over 3 giving them another pendant. Final Score: Red Jaguars no pendants and Orange Iguanas 2 pendants so they go to the temple! Temple Run: Johnathan starts off in the ledges, where a temple guard takes his pendant. He continues into the throne room, where he is confused on what to do next. He eventually goes up to the Heart room, and continues into the Kings Storeroom, where a temple guard takes him out. Then its amber's turn who follows Johnathan's path...until she completes the Kings Storeroom task. She then retreats to the Observatory where she wastes time completing that objective. She then goes back to the Shinre Of the silver Monkey, where 2 the last second a temple guard grabs her. But if they had more time during that capture, she would have been able to go on.
Notes: This is definately the Season 2 premiere. @ the moat Kirk says "They are gonna have to cross the moat, and this is how they will have to do it today...Olmec!" Then in the temple games Kirk interviews the teams like he did in Season 1. When thats done he says "And this game is called...Olmec tell us about it."
Missing Portrait Of Hans Holebin
(I actually saw this on Jon's site not too long ago)
Moat was where you had to put this plank on these green tubes in order to get across. Blue was 1st, Green was 2nd, red was 3rd, and purple finished last. Steps Of Knowledge was very easy, Holebin does a potrait of Henry VIII which he hates cuz he thinks is too fat. There was barely any wrong answers (expect for 1, which was by the Green Monkeys). Temple Games: blue vs. purple. 1st Temple game was where you had to spin around on these hamster wheels and then get out and destory the henry VIII paintings. purple scrambled a lot and blue blazed through it and got the 1/2 pendant. 2nd game was where they had to spin around and put ears, noses, etc. on Henry VIII. both of them seemed to struggle but blue got the most and ended up with another 1/2 pendant. 3rd game was where one person had to throw the rock to his or her partner, and then try to konkc over the boulders. Blue barracudas won yet again, and since they won all 3 temple games they went to the temple! Temple run: just your typical "Center Of the Room" loss. Rachel heads up first and is caught by a temple guard immediatley in the Crypt. Then she is forced to go through the ledges. In the pit the door to the kings storeroom opened up and she took a while climbing uo there while in the pit. She continues to the kings storeroom, and then in the Room Of the Ancient Warriors were she is taken out. then its Keith's turn who runs @ a very fast speed. He follows Rachel's path and continues into the Room of the Secret Password where a temple guard takes his pendant. (Good thing they had 2 pendants handy). Once he reaches the Dark forest, time runs out. Too bad the layout was difficult, i mean the team didn't really do anything wrong.
Notes: I definately think this was filmed on the same day as "Discarded Seal Of Ivan the Terrible" for these reasons. First off, the moat crossing was the same, and the 3rd temple game had the same type of objectives, and the temple run grand prize was a trip to monarch ski resort. Maybe I'm wrong but I just noticed this...
