Hello everyone.  :waves: I just wanted to say that I think that Dan and Jordan are the ones who cut in line. Are you sure they didn't get an earlier flight?

I managed to watch the videos with proxies....

The 2nd preview of the finale shows the cowboys really close to finishing the VR task (Jordan is in the way between Jet and the task goal). Dan shouts at Cord when he asks Dan to move Jordan out of Jet's way lol

I'm guessing the cowboys left the VR first (tied in the worst scenario: Jordan could be done and trying to read the Tonga message as he is spinning...)

If the final task really does involve music, that will be a challenge for the cowboys :D

And for those who hate the CBS player, the links to the Youtube vids:
Preview 1:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNbfyAgawK0
Preview 2:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xt8VVI7GbJw

But CBS is being evil and not all countries can view them  (:;)  Anybody feeling nice and can grab them of YT and reUL elsewhere? (pls PM/post the alt link if you do! Thanks!!  :hearts:)

I'm just partially making up fantasies but maybe they chose the GAMH for the memory task. (I hope we see one of those again. Please don't make it like TAR 6, 10, and 15)

Nope. You can't do that. If you do, it fails.

I've read on WIKIPEDIA that you can do that.....

I think there is a misunderstanding here. What kwando is trying to say that it is pointless. E.g. If a team behind yields a team in front, it is voided and doesn't count anymore. Take TAR 12 India leg for example. Kynt and Vixen U-turn Nick and Don who is in front hence it had no effect.

I think they're leaving - since they don't seem to be escorted by Stormtroopers anymore.

Peach has it right!

That is the Cowboys running to Yoda.  They have just exited their cab.

What bugs me is why did it take them so long to get to the Digital Arts Complex?  I know they had already left SFO by 9:22.

I was thinking that the VR task might just be the "cut in line" deal. If the Cowboys get frustrated waiting on Jordan.......they might see a gap and sneak through and get ahead there. Jet seems to be just waiting for Jordan to move and Jordan doesn't have a clue whitch way to go. He seems to be just blocking Jet to me.

It looks to me like Jordan has reached the "GOAL!" and is trying to read the next clue (about Tonga).  When he finishes, then Jet will be able to move forward and read the clue.


The VR Goal:



Cord can't see that Jordan is in front of Jet.  He only sees Jet and the Goal:

I don't think Jordan is blocking Jet. I think they move within the area and all they movements are show on this game thing. The object is to get to the "Goal" to receive their next clue. So even though It may look like Jordan is blocking jet, I don't think they are in the game.

Phil was on Bonnie Hunt today and showed a clip of the Coit Tower ascender task. He did mention it was the final task.

I thought that the clip from Bonnie revealed a lot.

It looks like the Coit Tower roadblock might be TAR5 redux, with Dan & Jordan playing the roles of Linda & Karen and Jet & Cord playing the roles of Colin & Christie.

Dan is almost to the top when Jet & Cord arrive to the roadblock, and it seems like Dan is out of gas.

This would fall in line with Phil's "back and forth" comment, if the VR game is first and the roadblock is after.

Interesting.  Where does the trunk stuff fit in then? Chateau's shadow magic says that the trunks come after Coit.
