The premiere on September 25, 2025, aired right after Big Brother 27’s penultimate episode. Teams kicked off their race by finding a clue that led them to an ice rink, where they had to push each other on sleds to knock down bowling pins. The first team to finish received an Express Pass while the last team faced a Hazard.

Taylor and Kyland secured the Express Pass and gave a second to Jag and Jas. Unfortunately, Jack and Enzo ended up with the Hazard, forcing them to eat herring while the other teams advanced. This setback contributed to their elimination. They faced challenges in completing a clog bike ride and got lost en route to the Roadblock, ultimately finishing last.

In his exit interview, Jack expressed pride in their efforts, saying, “I’m super proud. There are so many things I’ve done in this country that I would be terrified to do, and I wasn’t scared at all. It was just, ‘Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go.’”

Angela and Lexi Murray

In Episode 2, the teams journeyed from Amsterdam to Prague but faced considerable challenges. Several teams accidentally disembarked at the wrong stop, necessitating detours to reach their destination, while others, including Angela and Lexi, dealt with train cancellations while they waited.

Upon arriving in Prague, Angela and Lexi found themselves lagging. Lexi encountered difficulties with her fear of heights during a Roadblock that required them to walk on a high plank to grab their clue.

After completing the challenge, they moved to a Detour involving memorizing village crest names in a restaurant. This proved more challenging than expected, leading to Lexi’s frustration over their mistakes.

Angela and Lexi finished the Detour shortly after Megan and Matt, resulting in a nail-biting footrace to the Pit Stop, where Megan and Matt narrowly claimed victory.

Megan and Matt faced challenges after a slow start in the third leg of the race. Being among the last to finish the Road Block, they got lost heading to their next destination and struggled to find clues in a plowing task. Unfortunately, the other teams reached the Pit Stop before Megan and Matt could find their clue, prompting Phil to inform them of their elimination.
