A Million Ways to Lose a Million Dollars

The final three teams are now in New York City and are getting ready for the finale. Their first challenge is to go to the Empire State Building and climb up all the way to the top in order to grab a case and then take the case to Central Park. Since Geoff & Brody's taxi was damaged by the ice dancer's taxi, they take the subway and get a huge lead so they reach Central Park first with the case. The police cadets reach the chill zone first by a few seconds while the ice dancers are finally eliminated from the race. The final challenge is to take the case to the lake and then try to figure out the combination that is being written on one of several buoys, and then open the case that will reveal a map that leads to the finish line.
