"Two teams strike a surprising deal to target another team with the yield!"

D/K getting yielded wouldn't be surprising. D/O would...but C/M would be even MORE surprising! They have been showing her talking a lot about "yield karma"

I suspect that D/O get yielded, because (i may be wrong..i need to watch the preview again) but I think phil said something about teams reach a shocking decision on who to yield..or something like that...

My first thought was M/C are yielded since the preview showed them right after and there's no way of telling if the reaction from BQ's is at finding out there is one or finding out they were yielded.  I watched again and thought the same things that it's not the BQs.  Also, it didn't seem as though E/D & O/D were standing together to make the decision.  Also, it appears there is a bunching.  Without a bunching BQs would be first to Yield box (they should).

Since it may not be BQs then D/O may be right.

It said a surprising deal.

Meaning two teams work together and we will be surprised.

Eric/Danielle and Dustin/Kandice.

Neither likes Charla/Mirna so maybe that makes a difference. Hell, you can take 2 FFs maybe you can YIELD twice also. lol

I posted this for EP10, but will repeat it here:

Bummer for bad information.

Re-checked ep 8.  Phil introduced Fast Forward but does not mention how many are in the race, nor that a team can only use a FF once!  Danny and Oswald teamed with Uchenna and Joyce used the FF in Krakow.

UNLESS, AT THE START OF THE NEXT LEG PHIL SAYS SOMETHING LIKE "IT HAS COME TO OUR ATTENTION THAT YOU, DANNY AND OSWALD USED THE FAST FORWARD IN HONG KONG.  BUT SINCE A TEAM IS ONLY ALLOWED TO USE IT ONCE YOU MUST GO TO BACK OF THE PACK AND YOU ARE NOW MARKED FOR ELIMINTION NOT ERIC AND DANIELLE.

If my memory is correct something like this has happened in an earlier TAR where the next ep started off with a sit down talk by Phil and two teams on some rule infraction which affected the outcome of that leg.  Will go back and check my files tomorrow.

It's possible, but we will have to wait until next week.

Also it looks like Charla is doing the ROADBLOCK again!  But nothing too physical.  We haven't had much physical activity in this TAR.

Phil: Next week on The Amazing Race
Mirna: Come ON Charla!!
Phil: Charla has a thrill 660 feet high above the earth
Dustin: caution..Yield ahead
Kandice: OHHH
Oswald mouths : Yup
Phil: and 2 teams strike a surprising deal to target another team with a Yield

Looks like Danielle's hand, but who knows. If Phil says its a shocking yield I feel like D/K would be to obvious.

If you look at Kandice's hand her nails look similar to the hand in the photo...but then a lot of girls have long nails.

I was thinking that at first as well but they already used a yield.

If they were turning OVER the yield thing that means they are yielded.

I didn't find anything TAR-related in the Macau Tower's press releases. But I did find the name (12 Dec press release) of the Chairman of the Macau Tower: Ms. Pansy Ho. (don't fire me  :hides)

Gosh how stupid of me not to realize that. I guess we will have to wait and see.

Pansy Ho! and Dirty Pirate Ho's!! :lol3:

Think exposition hands.

I think it might be D/O that get yielded....we have to figure out how they get to last place somehow...

But have we ever had a TBC AND a Yield on the same leg?? Come on historians!

For references all shots of D/K are flipped (look at the nike sign on Dustin's shirt)

Michael in denial that his BQ's can be Yielded  :lol3:

from maps & more maps ..lots of good stuff down there

Tired of KL?  :lol: Debbie from TAR7 has an interesting idea: a Skyjump from the Macau tower. (I've noticed, though, that this season there doesn't seem to be a lot of the usual TAR-type activities)

Nope we ahve never had a Yield on a TBC leg.  Several on Non Elimination leg's tho.  SO its possible that this next leg might just be another non elimination.

What do you folks think?

The surprise would either  be who is Yielded or who does the Yielding.

If Dustin & Kandice are yielded no surprise there.  No surprise if Danielle & Eric or Charla & Mirna did it.  Would be a surprise if Oswald & Danny did it though.

No real surprsie if Charla & Mirna got yielded or by anyone.

Would it be a surprise to see Danielle & Eric get yielded again?  Yeah

Would it be a surprise if Oswald & Danny got Yielded?  Yeah, and by anyone.

If D/O get yielded--it would have to be by E/D or C/M since the BQ's have used their yield already.
