What if Adam and Bethany didn't go for the FF?

Kym and Allie has all the time to try the FF which they will most likely succeed.

Adam and Bethany gets U-TURNed by Amy and Maya and fall back behind.

Adam and Bethany gets eliminated.

Amy and Maya becomes Facebook most hated team.

Wow, TAR 25 Leg 9 provides so many What If scenarios...

I strongly agree with that. :stare

Another what if scenario for Leg 9 of TAR25:

If Kym & Alli did not do the FF...
1. They could win the leg (assuming they get good cabs) or finish in 2nd.
2. Amaya and Wrestlers most likely can not U-turn them (assuming Kym & Alli have been leading for the whole leg).
3. No Amaya vs Wrestlers due to the Cyclists being ahead.
4. Now if the surfers took the FF, Misti & Jim might use their Save.
And... there are a lot more possibilities. :stare (but the cyclists could've survived had they not taken it :( )

??? Let's see:
Kym & Alli said to Amy & Maya and Brooke & Robbie that they would take the Fast Forward, but decided against it during the cab ride. I assume that they would get to the Roadblock in third (since they detoured away from Marina Bay Sands to get to Sentosa), where at least Brooke & Robbie would see them. This would alert both the wrestlers and scientists once all three teams hit the China Cups Detour.

Meanwhile, Adam & Bethany would attempt the Fast Forward and Misti & Jim would be currently in last.

Amy & Maya would get to the U-Turn board first and U-Turn Kym & Alli. If Brooke & Robbie didn't use the U-Turn (which is probably what would happen) Kym & Alli would then use their U-Turn on Misti & Jim, as they assumed the surfurs would at least try for the Fast Forward. This could put the Dentists in last, therefore using up the Save, and all five teams stay intact for at least another leg. This is also what would happen if Brooke & Robbie U-Turned Misti & Jim or Kym & Alli arrived at the board before Brooke & Robbie (this could happen as Brooke & Robbie took a while to check the Onward Singapore guy).

If Brooke & Robbie used the U-Turn on Adam & Bethany or Amy & Maya (Twinnie strategy!), Kym & Alli are guaranteed a last place finish and be eliminated.

??? Another situation: Kym & Alli never took to the Fast Forward. They would be in the top 3 with Amy & Maya and Brooke & Robbie for most of the leg. If they get to the U-Turn in first (as they are generally faster racers than the other two teams), they could use it on any of the three teams, but probably to Brooke & Robbie, as Amy & Maya are less threathening than the wrestlers, Misti & Jim have the Save, and they think Adam & Bethany took the Fast Forward. Brooke & Robbie would then U-Turn Misti & Jim. This scenario would be decided as who could get to the Merlion quicker after the two teams finish their second Detour.

If Misti & Jim are last, the Save is used. If Broke & Robbie are last, they are eliminated.
