Btw, I have this vibe that TAR15 has taken the TV approach. For TAR14, it is sports/Olympics (hence Michael Phelps, Nadia Comanecelli (sorry for spelling)). TAR15 has featured the LA River, a legendary Hollywood setting, they have a Japanese Game Show (which is def related to TV) in Japan. And the promos for Cambodia has a 'spy' feeling to it (especially on the Fedora part :lol: ). And (less likely related but could be related) also the episode title quotes for episode 3 and 4 - Sean Penn Cambodia Here We Come (according to wiki, Sean Penn is an actor/director), and I'm Like Ricky Bobby (according to wiki, Ricky Bobby is a character in a comedy film).

Just pointing this out. ;D

I think it is a match too.... these are from the QT panoramio, and are of the interior of the FCC (Foreign Correspondents Club).

(embedding the promo pic so it doesn't get lost)

And the uniform looks like a match for the Raffles Le Royal seen at the beginning of the promo ( photo source).

FWIW - Jean-Claude Pomonti is a journalist that reported about the war in Southeast Asia.

It looks like the camera/sound crew must know where the Zev/Justin passports got lost. Otherwise, how would Phil know that they do not have them.

Nice of CBS to spoil us. Wow. Well, it may not be true, but based on TAR Detectives info, this is rather interesting.
Just here to visit.

So Zev & Justin lose their passports.  I guess this means that they're out of the Race.  A real pity.

I'm thinking this is a Kisha & Jen-esque situation where they lose the passports, but end up getting saved. But who knows really? And how did Zev & Justin not even realize the travel documents were missing? Could they have accidentally given it to one of the fedora guys at the hotel or something along with the newspaper clipping? :duno:

I'm thinking they are doing well then when they arrive at the pitstop Phil sends them back to find their passports because we all know they cannot be checked in with out them and this is why their confessional is in the dark .. because they are now last  :'(

Yep, an "amazing" newspaper, in fact probably The Daily Amazing Race. And the dog photo and headline are no doubt references to the family dog, a JR terrier named Jetson.
