The Amazing Race Finale Recap for 12/13/2023
The final episode of CBS’s The Amazing Race takes us to Seattle. All three teams leave in the order they arrived at the Pit Stop and race one last time to get to first place.
Rob and Corey are in the lead and at the top of the Space Needle, where they will have to walk to get their next clue. Both teams are hot on their heels, so they will need to work fast to stay ahead. Once they are up on the Space Needle, they will attach themselves to a harness and rope to get the clue.
Corey and Rob finish first and must head to the Chihuly Garden and Glass. Once there, they will have to complete three tasks. Grunge has them working as roadies for a grunge band, Glass has them mold melting glass and Grab has them to a trapeze act. They can do them in any order.
Greg and John pull ahead and do the glass challenge first, with Joel and Garret right behind. Rob and Corey are at the grab challenge. Corey is able to do it quickly, but Rob struggles. He finally gets it after six tries.

It is a mad dash to Kenmore with all the teams on an even playing field. Once they arrive, they have to do a memory game which consists of them lining up kayaks in chronological order based on what happened in each leg.
