The idea has been subtly floated for a while now that the goths will be eliminated here. It makes me think that they won't but they did sort of hint at Margie and Luke and Mel and Mike's elims. It's hard to figure all the possibilities of hints and reverse psychology type stuff.
Physics alone is not enough.

Let me mourne over Ron and Christina's departure for awhile. :'(

At least they proved to some who had negative opinions about them that they can work together as a team without quarrelling.

I was hoping and went with my heart feelings that maybe Goths will be eliminated.  :'( :'( :'(

"AND ANOTHER RACER TAKES A DANGEROUS PLUNGE IN A STATE OF PANIC,"


From the viewing party, they said that the jump into the Ganges and playing tugboat Vyxsin saved them because the boat would take too long and there was only a few minutes between their arrival and Ron & Tina.

And Luke was there!!  :wohoo:

Phil said it was close. I wonder how close it was... :'(

The goths are literally doing a Dan and Andrew... pretty shocking for an Allstar team who did so well the first time round and didn't come in worst than fifth place.

Actually neither shocking nor ironic to me........There were eleven teams that raced damn good in their seasons. They were all consistant and competant racers. As the premise for this season of TAR, they got eliminated by a quirk.

So far every team eliminated were involved in the free code word for the very first roadblock......that is the pattern that interest me. Only two teams left that didnt solve the naval flag puzzle by themselves left, Kent/Vyxin and Flight Time and Big Easy.

As far as the flight from Kolkata to Varanasi, there were maybe a dozen flights from Kolkata to Delhi that afternoon/evening. It is obvious from comments by Flight Time and Big Easy, that they flew to Delhi on a flight by themselves. I am thinking that teams were scattered among those dozen flights. The last Kolkata flight to Delhi arrived in Delhi about midnight. I assume teams left the Delhi airport and found a cheap place to sleep. Then went back to the airport the next morning. All teams except Jet/Cord were on Kingfisher flight IT231, 930-1045. Jet/Cord were on 9W723, 1030-1145. That is the only way I can resolve the fact that the Kingfisher group never saw J/C or vice versa.

That is the only way I can resolve the fact that the Kingfisher group never saw J/C or vice versa.

I have a different perspective on this. Teams had the opportunity based on using the airport Kingfisher Airways booking service to take any flight from about 5pm on, yet all except maybe Nate/Herb and Jet/Cord waited for the late Kingfisher flight. Why? I bet it's was due to other flights being unavailable or to being steered to IT604 2038 2352 CCU DEL. Those same booking agents put those teams plus Nate/Herb on the first flight (which happened to be IT608 0809 1120 Kingfisher DEL VNS.

Your assessment is very possible apskip, no arguments here. I just got a different sense from re-watching the episode.

We know from the spoiler guy that Jet/Cord and Gary/Mallory were inside of security at 310 pm on Dec 2 @ the Kolkata Airport. He also saw Kisha/Jen and another team outside at Kingfisher getting tickets. From the episode we know now the other team was Zev/Justin. Kent/Vyxin were at a travel agency away from the airport getting their tickets. Ron/Christina got their tickets before K/J and Z/J and left to go eat dinner and spend some quality father/daughter time. Approx 2 hours later the Globes show up and from their comments, they didnt see any other teams in the airport, but they knew they would "catch up." I took this to mean at the airport in Delhi for the morning flight to Varanasi. Certainly all the teams that booked at Kingfisher could have been all scattered out in the airport.

As to Jet/Cord.......I think Jet Airways kept them on Jet Airways flights. I never get the sense that they ever say another team till they got to the RB in Varanasi.  There are no scenes of teams camping out in the airport in Delhi....so that is why I think they were all split up. Just a hunch on my part. I dont think the Cowboys saw a team from the Pit Stop Start till the RB in Varanasi. I would have thought if they did, they would have found out about the earlier Kingfisher flight from other teams.

There were 11 flights from Kolkata to Delhi between 3 pm and 1030 pm on Dec 2. Since all these racers are pretty sharp by now, I just think they would have gotten to Delhi as soon as possible and not wait around in Kolkata and let so many flights go by. The Kingfisher flight on Dec 2 from Kolkata to Delhi was delayed about 38 minutes as it was. The teams had already been through major snafus on the flights to Aus and Japan.

When the teams were a the Delhi airport the next morning to fly to Varanasi...........it just seem like from their comments that they hadnt seen each other either...............anyway.......not really a big deal. Maybe the CBS webmonkeys will put up the Insider vidoes and we might get some clues from that, similiar to the spending the night in the hostels in Sydney waiting to fly to Broken Hill.
