Two titles both Alice Cooper related:

He Made Me Look Like Alice Cooper (China)
No More Mr. Nice Guy (China)

Clues:


*The Racers must eat fried scorpions at a Roadblock,
**Racers crunch on fried scorpion among other Chinese critters.
 
*COMMUNICATION IS CLEARLY NOT A SKILL THAT THE TEAMS POSSESS IN BEIJING AS THEY DRIFT FURTHER AWAY FROM THEIR DESTINATION IN SEARCH OF A U-TURN
**Colorful teams wander the Beijing streets for hours in search of a U-Turn, which is right where they started.
***This week's U-Turn isn't anonymous but that doesn't stop one team from throwing another under the bus.
****... but even the distaste of a scorpion pales in comparison to the cutthroat behavior of a Team that publicly throws another under a bus with a U-Turn
.

 
Detours:
Opera Makeup: at the Huguang Guild Hall aka Wenchang Ge thanks to Boingo and Neobie


Marge & Luke

we know Jen/Kisha and Cara & Jamie do the makeup as well






Chateau spots Kisha & Jen getting makeup at the same time as Luke & Marge


of course we've got a gnome :gnome




and someone gets U-Turned

I think this'll be a Margie quote.  That sounds like the name of someone from back in her day.

If it's a Margie quote, then we can safely say that she & Luke make it to the finals.  Since Cara & Jamie were spotted with Margie & Luke, we can also say that Cara & Jamie will make it to the finals.  The third spot, however, is up for grabs.

Problem being "if" EP10 is a NonElim then really it could be any of the final 4 for the title and the final 3 spots are still up for grabs.

Isn't Episode 11 also the final four? I mean, if next leg's an NEL which it should be, so doesn't really say much. IF next leg's an NEL that is.

Unless they want to throw a speedbump into the last leg (If this happens it will probably be before some sort of leveller) I'd say its pretty safe that leg 10 is an NEL.

I have kids from age 11 to age 26...and they all know who Alice Cooper is.  So the younger teams may know him because of their parents!

For those of you who never saw the great Alice Cooper, here are three videos. He was the Marilyn Manson of his day.

First, his most famous song, "School's Out"



One of his famous appearances was on the Muppet Show in 1976. One of my favorite songs, "Welcome To My Nightmare".



And from a more recent appearance on Late Show with David Letterman, here's him singing another one of his bigger hits, "No More Mr. Nice Guy."



For those of us who are old enough to remember, Alice truly rocked and mixed theatrics in his live show. Definitely fun to watch.
