IT'S A BATTLE TO THE FINISH LINE AS THE REMAINING FOUR TEAMS COMPETE TO WIN THE RACE AND THE $1 MILLION PRIZE, ON THE TWO-HOUR FINALE OF "THE AMAZING RACE 5," TUESDAY, SEPT. 21 ON THE CBS TELEVISION NETWORK

"You've Just Made Me A Millionaire" -- Four teams compete in the last two legs of the race but only three teams will have the chance to race to the finish line and win the ultimate prize, on the special two-hour finale of THE AMAZING RACE 5, Tuesday, Sept. 21 (9:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Phil Keoghan is the host of the series.

As the final four teams enter the last two legs of the race, one team seizes an opportunity to lie to another team to gain a crucial lead; teams push themselves through exhaustion and pain on a grueling 150-foot rope climb that becomes one of the most intense road blocks in the history of THE AMAZING RACE, and one racer has an emotional breakdown after a series of crashes on the final leg detour. During a very tight race to the finish after 72,000 miles of travel, the teams realize that every move, every minute and every decision can mean the difference between $1 million and second place. ?
