If they received the colored one then why are Mallory and Vyxsin seen with clear ones?

Someone (Vyxsin, I'm guessing if this pans out) inadvertently ruins somebody else's (Flight Time, see reasoning for Vyx) mold by fiddling around in the freezer? :duno:

But that would mean penalty wouldn't it? :duno:

Yeah a Mark/Michael penalty for tampering. More likely that it is a stolen cab, etc like Joab said.

Hi!

Long time lurker, first post here.  Peach clues are making me really worried for my favorite team.  With the "IT IS A RACE TO THE FINISH" comment and especially the “The pictures tell the story” comment combined with the 2A promo caps, I’m afraid I figured out who the eliminated team is.  I hope I’m wrong and this is all speculation, but if I’m right, I hope they are not eliminated because they forgot their gnome because that would be terrible and sad considering their previous experience on the race...    :(
And that team is????????

Peach, do you allow me to explain my reasoning and tell who my speculated eliminated team is ?  I have no insider info, so all I did was to put the pieces together with your clues.  It was fun every week until I figured out this week that the probable eliminated team was also my favorite one!  :lol:

I have no idea who is going to be eliminated. I just hope that the lack of talk of Jen and Kisha means that they are safe!

I was thinking that the mold on the table is the example that everyone must follow.  Just like when the teams had to paint the elephant with multiple arms in India, they had one already painted as an example.

Improper freezing of the gnome!  Hmmmm?
Maybe someone leaves the freezer door open too long and another team's gnome does not freeze properly?
Maybe someone takes the wrong gnome out of the freezer?
Maybe someone's gnome is left in the freezer too long and that causes problems.

Not long until we find out.

And that team is????????

Well, since it’s all speculation, I guess that it would do no harm to tell what I meant by that.  Look at the pictures posted by Peach for the 2A promo. At first I thought it would come down to a race between FT/BE and K/J because of the "IT IS A RACE TO THE FINISH" clue.  There is a “RACE” caption when those two teams are on-screen.  Later Peach added “The pictures tell the story”.  If the pictures tell the story, there is another team in the last cap after the “RACE” captions.  It’s strange because Peach wrote that those caps were “new stuff”, but in fact that was already posted before (capture #14, reply #105).  I thought that maybe Peach put that pic there for a reason : to tell the story.  There will be a race to the finish line and the last team will be the team on the last picture, Z/J.  REALLY hope I’m wrong though.

In my opinion, they didn't feature the riff between Big Easy and Kent for nothing. Even the episode blurb mentions it. Combine it with the hint that someone messes up, Flight Time probably makes a mistake that, for reasons yet to be revealed, Big Easy asserts the goths had something to do with it. hence the "I'm not placing blame, I'm telling the truth" comment.

I figured the roadblock location cannot be far from the pitstop since they have to carry the chocolate gnome there. Apparently it will literally be a footrace to stay in the race? Doesn't bode well for non-athletic teams...

This episode takes place in Zermatt, Switzerland.

Teams must choose between two Detours:

SEARCH and RESCUE. (slowhatch has the location in spoilers)

Both tasks fly the teams by helicopter to a remote spot on the glaciers.
 (company, registration, and heliport location in spoilers)

In search, they use an avalanche beacon finder (maker in spoilers)

 to rescue a buried person.

They must "dig deep"

 for this challenge.

Doing this one are Zev and Justin, and Gary/Mallory.

Zev says: "Let's do Search...I think it will be easier."  

Famous last words or a wise decision? ???


In RESCUE, teams must rappel (NOT REPEL!! ) into a deep crevasse in the ice, and hoist a "victim" to the surface using a pulley system.

Doing this Detour are K/J and K/V. The Trotters are unknown...

Teams then proceed to a kitchen where they must make a chocolate mold of our beloved gnome. :gnome :gnome :gnome

Conflict arises and teams seem at each other (Mika anyone??) :hellkitchen 

Will this be a "flash in the pan" or have a lasting effect?? 

Teams travel

to the Pitstop where someone WILL go home.

Who comes last? Who is eliminated??

Find out tonight in the shadow of the Matterhorn!

So when was the last time someone was eliminated after one of those little thirty minute penalties?

I loved the close finish and the tasks this time. The detour choice was really important, I think Gary and Mallory would have done a lot better if they had chosen the other one. They had to be worn out from all the digging and the running to the pitstop.

Was it last season with Kevin and his dad?

Yeah, also think it was Michael and Kevin.  IIRC, they got two 30 minute penalties, didn't they?
