The Amazing Race (2001)

Episode Overview

The teams arrive in Montevideo, Uruguay, where they explore a foam-filled discotheque, popping rubber balls to uncover clues. All teams find themselves on the same ferry, feeling the tension of being closely grouped after previously holding different positions. They then make their way to Buenos Aires, where they face a Detour option: Perro or Tango. Teams must choose between walking eight dogs for a mile or traveling a mile and a half to participate in a Tango challenge. The Tango proves to be the smarter choice, as dog-walking turns out to be time-consuming and challenging. After completing one of the tasks, they tackle a Roadblock involving retrieving a scarf from a calf. As the race progresses, fortunes shift, allowing several teams to move ahead, while Alison and Donny are ultimately eliminated.
