Looking at the screencaps of the jackets, it looks more like Margie to me than Victor or Tammy...but I'm just a newbie at all this detective stuff.  But if it is a detour, we have pictures of Luke on the boat (comodore?) is that also a detour, or is that the roadblock...then what the heck is the coal from?  Or do Margie & Luke have a hard time at one of the detours so they switch to another?  Okay, I give up, maybe it is Tammy or Victors jacket...LOL
                     :duno:    :duno:    :duno:       :duno:    :duno:    :duno:    :duno:

I think the Detours are Dancing or Fishing.  We have hard video evidence of Margie & Luke fishing (and battling ducks).  Thus the dark grey coat at the Dancing belongs to Victor.

So, if the Fishing thing is a Detour (as I suspect), then LaKisha & Jen and Margie & Luke do the Fishing Detour while Cara & Jamie and Tammy & Victor do the Dancing one.  Cara & Jamie do great but Tammy & Victor struggle while the dancing instructor laughs at Tammy.  So Tammy & Victor most likely comment that their parents will cry themselves to death when they see the siblings dancing so badly -- in the eyes of the dancing instructor, at least.  Cara & Jamie come in first, LaKisha & Jen and Margie & Luke arrive about the same time (not exactly sure who arrives first), Tammy & Victor arrive while the arguing goes on, and Phil has to find Mark & Michael and tell them they've been Philiminated.

This is the best speculation based on the spoilers I have seen in three weeks. Great job, Belle.  :jam: :jam: :jam:

I can't believe the editors gave it away? It seems unlikely that the Brothers were randomly shown ... twice.

I can. They've been giving things away a lot of things lately.

In this case they probably knew that we already knew Mark & Michael would be out. (what a tongue-twister)

I will bet, that the Bonnie Hunt promo, wasn't supposed to air till Monday!!!!! MsPuddin, did you get that promo off a CBS affiliate? Here, Bonnie is on the NBC affiliate. I sure wouldn't put it past another network to "accidentally" spoil another networks reality show.

Nevermind, I see it is on her web site. That is not good.

I didn't think Mark and Michael would be able to make up their time lag. This shouldn't have leaked before the show aired!  (:;)

They "obviously" were not in Guangzhou at 11 pm. Misidentified I suspect. A lot of American businessmen fly in and out of that place.

They may arrive in daylight, but then the sun starts going down...and CBS is trying to make it look less hopeless for Mark and Michael...(Just speculation)

The description holds up .. the poster might have got the time wrong though? So it would seem ......

Well, then if Guilin is a 36 hour pit stop, maybe its the next day and they just let them get stuck at an hours of operation deal all night long.....or it is 11am in the morning they were seen in Guangzhou.

It looks like they are feeding those birds. Like they have to toss the fish out to them?

or

Are they throwing bait out to attract the fish?

I have been reading y'all for a couple years now and never posted because you people say it all.  You all are so amazing.  One thing that is bugging me is the fishing with cormorants called as a detour.  When I look at the screen caps of Luke, Mark or Michael (still can't tell them apart) and Tammy, I only see one of them *on* the little boat thing.  Kisha and Jen are there too but they don't show either of them on the little boat. 

Is it possible this is really the roadblock? :duno:

Welcome to the forum Viv :welcome:

I was thinking it coud be the RB then I saw this ... . It looks like Victor is on the boat unless hes waiting for Tammy or seeing her sent off?

Some of the pics look like on the boat......and only one team member. Then others look like on the dock under a shade with both team members.

Yeah, I'm beginning to wonder if the cormorant thing was actually the Roadblock.  It's possible.
