Episode 015 of Legends of the Hidden Temple follows a team of two contestants as they compete in a series of physical and mental challenges in order to retrieve ancient artifacts hidden within the temple. The episode begins with host Kirk Fogg introducing the team, who are dressed in matching blue shirts and shorts, and explaining that they will have three minutes to complete each challenge.
The first challenge is the Moat Crossing, in which the contestants must work together to cross a shallow pool filled with floating foam blocks. The team quickly makes their way across and proceeds to the Steps of Knowledge, where they must answer a series of trivia questions about ancient civilizations. They perform well, earning them the opportunity to choose their next challenge: The Shrine of the Silver Monkey.
In this challenge, the team must decipher a hieroglyphic clue and assemble a three-piece monkey statue. The team struggles with this challenge, taking longer than expected to complete it and costing them valuable time. They move on to the Chamber of the Sacred Markers, where they must find and activate a hidden button to open a door leading to the next challenge.
The next room is the Room of Three Torches, where the contestants must correctly identify the two torches that will open the door leading to the next room. They choose the wrong torches on their first attempt, but quickly correct their mistake and move on to the Treasury of the Golden Orbs.
In this challenge, the team must use a long pole to retrieve golden orbs from a pit of sand and place them into a matching set of three pedestals. This challenge proves to be difficult for the team, as the sand is heavy and difficult to maneuver and they struggle to find the correct matching pedestals. However, they are able to complete the challenge and move on to the final room: The Temple of the Silver Monkey.
In the Temple of the Silver Monkey, the contestants must once again assemble a three-piece statue in order to retrieve the artifact. The team works quickly and efficiently, with one contestant passing each piece of the statue to the other until it is complete. They are then able to retrieve the artifact and exit the temple with time to spare.
After completing the temple run, the team is awarded the artifact and given a chance to compete in the bonus round for a grand prize. In this round, the team must cross a narrow bridge while carrying the artifact and avoiding obstacles thrown at them by temple guards. The team is able to successfully cross the bridge and claim their prize, ending the episode on a high note.
Overall, episode 15 of Legends of the Hidden Temple is a thrilling and fast-paced adventure that showcases the physical and mental prowess of the contestants. With a variety of challenges and obstacles to overcome, the episode is sure to keep viewers on the edge of their seats.
