Talking about Vanessa's injury, in TARLA 3 one of the girls (Marisol, from Marisol & José) suffered an injury in one of his knees, and stayed in the race but she has to compete using a wheelchair, and that team could be in the race at least for 4 more legs before their elimination.

On the other hand, Meredith (of & Gretchen) apparently wouldn't go to the doctor during the race because he was really worried that he would get pulled from the Race, so production can apparently medical DQ a team if they feel like they wouldn't be able to continue safely. (It turned out he did about three legs with a broken foot.)

Not surprised to apparently see a return of the head-shaving FF since it's the perfect combination of a) bringing the drama and b) cheap. Wouldn't be surprised to then see a return of the tattoo FF in 21 or 22 as well then.

That doesn't mean it doesn't hurt. :lol: I've turned\sprained\torn my ankle a number of times, and believe me, it's not fun. I still think Ranessa is medically elim'd. She won't be able to walk right after that.

I think it could possibly be her shoulder....

Thats what I was thinking too. I wouldn't doubt her ankle hurts from the fall, but it looked more like a shoulder injury to me.

Agree, it sure looks like she is yelling when Ralph is touching her shoulder, but judging from her reaction I don't think it is that serious.  Also, since they could probably run to that place and most of the time people run that fast only to go to the pit stop, Ralph could probably carry her to the pit stop if she can't walk.

I guess if Brendon/Rachel did not do the FF, the only chance for them to stay in the race is because M/B were so far behind last leg, I won't be surprised if there is no bunching at the start since it would be more fair to the other teams when the non-eliminated team needs to fight back for staying in the race.

Ralph does appear to be touching her shoulder, but she immediately grabs her ankle after her fall. :duno:

This is so cool. Yeah, I've been saying Vanessa's injury isn't that serious. Does anyone do the FWD successfully? This is turning out to be a surpriseless episode. Who takes the cake? The Army or the Border?

I think Mopper wins the leg.

See above, there is a paper with instructions, typically for a Fast Forward, and the Fast Forward instructions for the hay stacking below.



And Uchenna and Joyce's Head shaving Fast Forward



Pretty Sure there is a Fast Forward!

Exactly matches Uchenna and Joyce's Fast Forward bottom

I was guessing at the blobs, I don't know if it is right or not.

Here's the pic. Rachel could always wear a wig but I think that Brendon's hair is too long to have been shaved just a week or so before. They must decide not to do the FF.

Here is my take on the FF:

This is made for Mark and Bopper. ARt and JJ and Dave/Rachel can't, Vanessa and Rachel won't/didn't take it.

BUT Mark/Bopper are some awful amount of time behind AND have a SpeedBump.

Like Nary/Jamie's leg, there is no Airport bunching, this will be a more linear leg.

We can HOPE for a HoO...so far we have the dots on the foreheads, a blessing they have to all receive?

But if there is no HoO, and you are Mark and Bopper and are some HUGE ampunt of time behind....would you waste more time trying for thr FF or would you assume it had alrady been done??


And depending on how far they are behind... even if they do the FF there is no guarantee it is enough time to save them.
 
We need a HoO!!!

I think Mopper can avoid elimination with no bunching and the FF, but not first place. :duno:

Peach, it's what I said in post 20:  time is the key factor in this leg.  If Mark & Bopper are too separated from Art/JJ, Brenchel and Vanessa/Ralph (I don't include Davechel because they were at the PitStop when the 2nd. team were barely arriving to the coffe place to get their next clue), sadly I think they're gonna need a miracle - that it could be a HoO as you wish - to stay in the race.

Or, maybe, that some other team get a little bite of the race karma. :yess:
