What I'm saying, in my scenario, I see a final task before the finish line like season 8 & 9 and we might be seeing Don, Ron, TK, watching their teamates perform the final task, however it was decided I don't know? but TK & Rachel pre-plan whos going to perform it and thats why we see her running ahead of TK while he pays the taxi driver and handles the bags ...........So when the task is complete they run to the final pitstop and we see Christina & Ron sprinting with no gear and perhaps Ron & Nick, knowing they are last just pick up their gear or its some other scenario all together.

puddin - that's the most logical scenario to me. I think it's going to come down to Christina vs. Rachel  :jam:

lol the shot of Don and Nick reminds me of this:

Here comes Rachel



Ron--" The stress is on"



there goes Ron & Christina ..

sounds good to me puddin.
Now we just need to figure out if TK and Rachel go before or after Ron/Christina.

Would Ron and Christina really run like that if they knew they were in 2nd??

but puddin is that u-turn used?
maybe christina and ron get uturned ?

either way we know all the teams will most likely end up being bunched.

There's a U-turn? I thought there were none left? If Chris/Ron make it there before Nick/Don, they'll probably U-turn them.  I doubt they're the ones being U-Turned since why is Christina just standing there? Wouldn't you want to go back as soon as possible?  :duno:

Edit: It seems that the U-Turn hasn't been used yet, so they're not the ones being U-Turned. They will defiantly decide to U-Turn someone... :pull

About the picture: Maybe that picture of Nick/Don is a decoy. I just can't picture them running to the finish line with their bags in any scenario.... :(

Christina has to change shirts at once point in the episode. Most likely before the finish line.
nvm, in one of the shots you can see that she's wearing that blue sweater underneath her red/black jacket.

more rambling:



scenario(s):

Ron and Christina are in first, in order to use the u-turn a team must finish the road block. Then they get to the detour and the u-turned team has to do both detours?

OR detour -- roadblock -- U Turn -- u turned team has to go back and do the OTHER detour, after the roadblock?

I say this because ANY team that gets to the u-turn is going to use it, it's the last leg and it's for 1 000 000 dollars and it hasn't been used yet.

can't believe that there is a u turn in the last leg, that seems just cruel.
though if chris/ron are first I'm sure that they will u-turn nick/gramps because in India they said they would but Nick/gramps had beat them to it.

Wasn't the U-turn after the detour but before the roadblock both times.

it would seem that it would need to be close to both detours to be some semblance of fair.

anyway I  B:)  B:)  B:)  B:)

I don't know patlini - they might target Rachel and TK since they are younger and more in shape. Maybe that's why Rachel looks so distraught when running to that final task, because she knows she's in last and has a lot of caching up to do ?

 :(  weird video, puddin.  Nick says "For a million dollars, I can't figure it out", and Chris say "please help...", while next to the u-turn   ???

*ramblings follow*  the u-turn appears to be next to a wooden fence/wall (vertical boards).  Christina is there, Nick says his thing (possibly) by the same wall/fence, and TK is pointing at something by a wooden fence/wall.  If the u-turn is not yet used, why is she asking for help?

because she's waiting for Ron to finish the road block so they can use the U-turn?
that's my take on it.

Could this be where Nich and Chris are (and Rachel) while the three guys are waiting/watching?

What is that big brown circle thing?

Please help sounds like a prayer to me...

peach I don't think so -- Christina looks like she's just chilling and very nervous waiting for Ron to come back because she is holding the RB clues in her hand... UNLESS the RB is like a puzzle and she's trying to figure it out??? otherwise she wouldn't just be standing there.

Is that a helmet dangling from her arm or just the TAR pouch?
