- Episode summary
- At the start of this leg, teams were instructed to fly to Seattle, Washington. Once there, teams had to search the airport’s parking garage for a marked car with their next clue: a miniature souvenir Space Needle. Teams had to drive there in order to find their next clue. Teams then had to climb onto the roof of the Space Needle, 500 feet (150 m) above the ground, and retrieve their next clue directing them to the Chihuly Garden and Glass. There, teams encountered a Scramble and had to complete each of the following tasks related to arts in Seattle in any order so as to get three pieces of a clue which, when assembled, revealed their next destination.
- For the task at the Seattle Glassblowing Studio entitled Glass, teams had to use glassblowing techniques in order to turn molten glass into a glass float before receiving a clue piece.
- For the task at The Showbox entitled Grunge, teams had to become roadies and set up a stage for a grunge band in order to receive a clue piece.
- For the task at the Emerald City Trapeze Arts entitled Grab, both teams members had to perform a knee hang catch on a flying trapeze in order to receive a clue piece.
- The three clue pieces formed a model seaplane, and the written instructions directed teams to drive to the Kenmore Air Harbor in order to find their next clue. There, teams had to arrange kayaks with the Roadblock prompts and Detour choices from the previous eleven legs in chronological order on storage racks and place kayak paddles displaying each country on the associated rack in order to receive their final clue, which directed them to the finish line: the Clise Mansion in Redmond, Washington.

The Amazing Race Show Description
The Amazing Race is an American adventure reality game show in which 11 or 12 teams of two race around the world (except the Family edition which featured 10 teams of four). The race is split into legs, with each leg requiring teams to deduce clues, navigate themselves in foreign areas, interact with locals, perform physical and mental challenges, and travel by airplane, boat, taxi, and other public transportation options on a limited budget provided by the show. Teams are progressively eliminated at the end of most legs, while the first team to arrive at the end of the final leg wins the grand prize of US$1 million. As the original version of the Amazing Race franchise, the CBS program has been running since September 2001. Numerous international versions have been developed following the same core structure, while the American version is also broadcast to several other countries.
The show was created by Elise Doganieri and Bertram van Munster, who, along with Jonathan Littman, serve as executive producers. The show is produced by Earthview Inc. (headed by Doganieri and van Munster), Jerry Bruckheimer Television for CBS Studios and ABC Signature (divisions of ViacomCBS and The Walt Disney Company, respectively). The series has been hosted by veteran New Zealand television personality Phil Keoghan since its inception.
Since the inception of the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Reality-Competition Program in 2003, The Amazing Race has won it ten out of fifteen times; the show has also won other awards and commendations. Although it has moved around several prime time slots since its inception, the program has averaged about 10 million viewers per season.
The series was renewed for a 33rd season, but filming on the season was suspended in February 2020 after three episodes due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] With new COVID-19 precautions in place, the race completed filming from September to October 2021, and is set to premiere on January 5, 2022
