The Amazing Race/Heartwarming: Difference between revisions

{{work}}{{heartwarming}}

* A few times over the course of the series, a team gets trapped in a Roadblock. In spite of best efforts, the challenging member just can't seem to clear it. Multiple times. [[Ten -Minute Retirement|There is talk of quitting (or at least taking the 4-hour skipping penalty).]] There are [[Rousing Speech|Rousing Speeches]] to not give up. And then, eventually, once he/she [[Determinator|finally clears it]], the nearby natives who had watched the whole thing ''cheer and give what looks a lot like a group hug''. That team, as expected, usually winds up coming in last, though if it turns out to be a non-elimination leg, it just makes it even more heartwarming.

* In season 2 of the Australian series, father and daughter team Ross and Tarryn won the first leg and with it, a salvage pass, which gave them the choice of an extra headstart on the next leg of 1 hour or saving the team who came last on that first leg from elimination. They chose to save the last team, sisters Lucy and Emilia. Cue tears, hugs and the sisters admitting they knew from the beginning that Ross and Tarryn were 'their kind of people' when they saw [[DaddysDaddy's Girl|Ross give his daughter a kiss right before the start of the race]].
