Vicky is one of THE most kickass Girlfriend racers we've ever had on this show. She's constantly outperformed Nick, dragged him across the world while he was moaning and bitching and berating her. Hell, she's constantly physically outperformed most of the men on the race. She's also sweet and chill and beautiful. Dump. Him. NOW. (Sadly, I don't think it's going to happen...)

It also looks like Brook and Claire catch up with Jill and Thomas since Brook, Jill and Kat are all standing next to each other in the promo. So...yay that Thomas and Jill's insane lead doesn't carry over to the next leg.

I just hate Nicks attidtude towards Vicki, she should just leacve him.

I couldn't believe the way he spoke to her and I hope he apologized even if we don't get to see it. She's outdone him many times and not using the U-Turn was her idea. Kudos to her!

They're probably getting the Johnathan & Victoria or Terrence & Sarah edit
The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move

I don't know what sort of edit they're getting, but more importantly Nick-Vicki are in serious Race trouble. Nick has now done six roadblocks, and with 12 legs, I assume the roadblock limit of 6 still exists; and Nick cannot do any more roadblocks. Not to mention that their placement average is about two whole placements below the other three teams, who are as close in that average as you can be without being tied.

Nick and Vicki are starting to remind me of Rebecca and what's him name from TAR 6.

the schnauzers...
I have been trying to figure out how they get so far behind the other 3 teams in this leg. They got great airplane karma in the Bangladesh leg.......so maybe bad airplane karma in Hong Kong leg.......but your reminding me of the 6 RBs that Nick has done...........now maybe we get a RB that Vicki cant do or it takes her an extraordinary amount of time......anyway......maybe a 4 hour penalty in the next episode if she cant do it.

Nick/Vicki are at the Star Ferry terminal in the previews.

Since we have a sighting in Cheung Chau
I think N/V are at the Central Pier 5, waiting for the ferry to Cheung Chay.

p.s. If the re-visit the star ferry again (S2 S11 and S17 ... which means 3 times (:;))
       I will be very disappointed

Thanks for all the hard work peach!
This promo doesn't tell us much; I guess we'll have to wait for a commercial.

I wonder if that dancing is task-related?  Brook, Kat, and Jill all look like they're on some kind of stage or platform.

And it looks like it'll be Jill's last Roadblock, if the 6/6 rule is still in play, not a 7/5 one.

I think the rule may have only been modified for TAR 16 because of the reverse roadblock, but we'll see.

The food\dancing task is most likely a RB b\c Brooke, Kat, and Jill are seen on the stage. I'm not entirely convinced all that Brooke was doing was required. You know how she is... :bounce

Agreed with Anthony, it's the ferry to/from Cheung Chau. Look at the teeny map signboard at the back...
