U-Turn and a "Venomous Reaction" - two of my favourite things!
A SEASON-LONG FEUD CULMINATES WITH A U-TURN AND A VENOMOUS REACTION IN SINGAPORE, ON "THE AMAZING RACE," SUNDAY, APRIL 11 ON THE CBS TELEVISION NETWORK

"Dumb Did Us In" (Singapore) - Tempers and tensions flare when Racers place a target on one Team's back, and feuds come to a head when a U-turn comes into play, on THE AMAZING RACE, Sunday, April 11 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.  Phil Keoghan is host.

Sounds like Louie & Michael using another team to U-turn Carol & Brandy. Or it could just be the general dislike that Brent & Caite have for them.
I don't remember if it was on the episode or in the extra clips but Louie & Michael claimed they "trained" Brent & Caite to U-Turn Carol & Brandy :lol:
The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move

It's more then a general dislike, I bet if Brent could push the lesbian aunties onto PIE he probably would (would there be a penalty for that?)

I like the sound of the Singapore leg so far. No more car washing, visiting Phua Chu Kang or what..

Instead we're having a U-TURN, the biggest observation wheel in the world, the view at Marina Barrage of the entire city view of Singapore is superb and some very local traditional tasks.

This sounds like a good redemption for the really bad Singapore legs we had thus far. :lol:

Speculation:

If there's a U=Turn involved as to Carol-Brandy and Brent-Caite, it may be that the Cowboys were already ahead.  I have the impression that Singapore may be like Penang for the "Boys in the hats.

Agreed!!
U-turn the Cowboys is the smartest choice, but Jet & Cord won't give you that opportunity..

Actually, we might not know if they were ahead. Besides, IT'S BRENT AND CAITE!!! I doubt they're smart enough to figure that the cowboys are the best choice (strategically) for the U-Turn. Also, they agreed w/ the cops that they would use the U-Turn on Carol/Brandy when given the chance

We don't even know that there is a U-turn. Practically all of this is speculation. :lol:

According to the press release, this episode does have a U-Turn

Anyway, if this isn't true I think the U-Turn will be Shanghai 1. But I freaking BEG for the U Turn to be in this leg because seriously, I can't wait to see Carol and Brandy so pissed at something Brent and Caite will do!

This is the only "tidbit" and prove I have...

I'm pretty sure there is a U-turn this leg. I mean, it all fits:

Carol and Brandy get U-turned and get Philiminated as we know the next leg is an NEL.
Brent and Caite u-turn them out of spite.

How can they get Philiminated and be a NEL or do you mean the leg after this one is an NEL???

Well, I guess it was after all.  I got the code, but it still didn't work.

So much to spoil, and a pretty awesome preview! :jumpy: (Will we be done by Tuesday this time?)

Will let you guys have some fun and try to fill in the gaps tomorrow, but for now I need to take back what I said about the airport (sorry!). Teams are definitely arriving by train.

Michael and Louie are standing outside of the ASL gate, probably searching for a cab. Jiggle the streetview around and you'll recognize the bus stop, chemical tanks, etc.

Going by geographical distance alone, it looks like the Detour will be Cold Treats or Hot Beats? (I'm sure you guys can come up with a better name...) The U-Turn at Istana Park is located somewhat between the two options. It's 1.7km/1.0mi from one, and 2.6km/1.6mi from the other. Neither is exactly walking distance, but pretty close in any case.

Singaporeans should know the location pretty well, it's been all over the news! (Ten years ago, at least...) Hint: "OB marker." :lol:
