 Very nice! A poster/mural about the VVTs history? Maybe in a dedicated museum, press office, etc. I wonder if we'll ever know where exactly it is Slowhatch  ? anyway a little clip, again the confessionals |

GMTA, I just finished watching that segment. It seems a little more upbeat (or at least neutral), doesn't it? As far as Nick goes, if a person were cynical you might think people were "guided" in after-race interviews ("talk about the Frats" "talk about your sister and Dallas" etc.). Of course, talking in the present tense might mean MomSon made it to Portland, but...I doubt it. I really want Ken and Tina in the final 3 but thats for selfish reasons, I adore them. I'm trying to take Kenny's words and twist them as if they are still in the race "we have to have a little more give and take, shes got to trust in me when I think I know something.."  And Nick is a actor of sorts, I don't know how to read him? In my mind they won so to me its sort of like "Yeah I won and I'm okay with my sister and Dallas being together now that the race is over .." |

I think party may be the source's interpretation, and it could be more of a Pitstop gathering.
And sure the Pavilion hall or wherever could have the art...
So if Ken is partying with the pitstop gathering then hes not eliminated? Because the eliminated team is whisked away and do not see the other teams so? Party is not my interpretation--it was the sources. A hall behind the Pavilion could be a great place for the actual spend the night Pitstop... with plenty of room for post-leg confessionals. And I'm not convinced they are elim'd anyway,  Ken still seems to be talking like "we'll have to"... as in on the next leg ! And as far as guided goes...teams have been told they could not leave to go eat/sleep/mingle until they gave the producers the footage/quotes they needed. Teams have also said that they sometimes had a very difficult time to NOT say what they were clearly being led towards...  |

My feeling was Ken is talking like he is still in the race too peachs, oh I really hope so, again for my own selfish reasons! The thought of them not making final 3 makes me want to cry, I love them!

Well, in the leg that Anthony and Stephanie (who are they, lol) were eliminated, they had a confessional (and it was from the end of the leg they were eliminated) that made it appear that they didn't get eliminated, because I remember watching and thinking "Oh crap, I'm gonna lose points in the game lol" |

I'm SO off topic but can't help it :sucks Hi Stacy,
I saw TAR teams today as well at PDX. I drive the international buses at PDX but not today. However, I was driving the terminal parking lot buses today and saw a camera man /sound man running after a very tan blond woman in a florescent green sporty outfit, backpack and one of those TAR clue cards (?) in her hand just about the time the Germany flight would have landed. They were getting a taxi here at PDX. I had to keep my eyes on my driving but a person in the bus said they were from The Amazing Race.
My next loop around (20 minutes later), I arrived at the terminal and saw more teams grabbing a taxi. Fortunately I was driving the Employee lot bus and one of the supervisors (who got on camera & had to sign a TAR release for TV) confirmed that the teams in fact were from TAR and got off the Lufthansa flight from Germany to Portland OR. They were headed up to Washington state. He also said there were only 4 teams and perhaps the other two teams went up via Seattle first - but that of course is purely speculation.

I guess anything is possible like Ken and Tina could be final 3 if another team really screws up. We should, if things go the way in my thinking, there could very well be a team behind Ken and Tina maybe a speedbump putting a later team farther behind?

So if Ken is partying with the pitstop gathering then hes not eliminated? Because the eliminated team is whisked away and do not see the other teams so? No, I don't believe this is the case once Sequesterville(s) are full. Eliminated teams finishing 6, 5, and 4 typically travel with the entourage and then participate in decoy operations at the final city. Now it matters greatly whether this "party" or gathering is after the first Moscow pitstop or the second. After the first is OK since eliminated teams will have time to get on the same set of flights as the Final 3 one day earlier(May 13) to Frankfurt and Portland. After the second does will allow not enough time to do that. |

Since the source of the "party" is our eyewitness Robyn and the area that Ken is sitting in may very well be the All Russian Centre, which I think it is, then the date should be May 13th as in the final Moscow leg. |

I'm re-thinking this confessional might be this coming leg, Moscow part 1. Could this be Nick covered in flour? Do we know this place? Nick: I think the budding romance between Dallas and Starr is kind of cute, shes my baby sister  |

per clue this week, Nicks confessional would make sense now. I bet Starr says that Dallas actions during the roadblock is studly and Nick snaps back that Dallas could probably like palm these.. Nick: I think the budding romance between Dallas and Starr is kind of cute, shes my baby sister *A romance grows stronger between two racers — will competition cause a rift in their relationship? |
