Topic: TAR Canada 4: SPECULATION and DISCUSSION of Spoilers

[NumfarPTB]

I'm not aware of a lot of spoilers boot-order wise but omg... does it seem like Stephané & Antoine get the boot next week over Anne & Tanya instead?

I'm not so sure tbh. Stephane and Antoine have proved to be a strong team, and Anne and Tanya seem to be in trouble next leg due to an accident. And I'm not sure how helpful it will be, but the Father & Son are from Quebec and Vietnam was a former French colony, maybe French will be more beneficial to use than English next Leg?

Isn't them the only team we don't see lined-up in a pic we have from Live?

No, English is more popular in Vietnam than French.

YES. There were 8 teams waiting in line. But I guess we didn't take into account why they were waiting... Were Stephane and Antoine the first in line, the others were waiting on them?

Here's what scott14 posted in the live sightings thread with scott14's team analysis. Either they weren't seen in the picture, maybe at the back of Joel & Ashley. So it's possible that Joel & Ashley did not come in last in Ho Chi Minh leg and it wasn't a NEL, based on the sightings?? 

[WindsorSue]

I had my own copy of that pic.
Yes, they could have been at the back of the line, but look at the part I circled, behind the hats piled up.

BTW developments from last night's episode also holds interesting things for how that Kingston W-Turn was handled.

Agreed, no doubt this Big Brother/Steph & Kristen rivalry could be an ongoing storyline. But we know they don't get the Express Pass, and who does.

So it's possible Anne & Tanya could be out before Stephane & Antoine, then? Next week's preview shows Tanya needing medical attention

[I ♥ TAR]

Do we know if that 8 teams photo was taken in 3rd or 4th leg? And are we sure that 4th leg was really NEL?

[paradoxinee]

So am I right in concluding that Emmett does not only two Roadblocks in a row, but both are height RBs? (Jasper Skytram & Calgary Tower). Oh my.

The first leg had two RBs. So Emmett did not perform two RBs in a row.

[paradoxinee]

Well, hmm, Leg 2's result tonight throws a big wrench into our timeline, heh

The team that was expected to be out comes 2nd place, and it's a NEL

You should know the different between "at risk" and "eliminated". The timeline is still right.
Stephane & Antoine actually can survive until final.
They survive leg 2. Leg 3, they may survive over Anne & Tanya. Leg 4, they will be eliminated here if it is not NEL as spoiler.
Leg 5, they may survive over Kate & Kelly. They even can survive leg 6 if it is NEL/KOR. They may survive over Lowell & Julie at leg 7. And if leg 8 is another NEL/KOR, they can survive again.

As so, could you count Jillian and Emmett's RBs perform in the whole race?

We didn't know about the two RBs when I speculated that LOL

[Maanca]

We know from the preview Jillian's doing next week's Roadblock (the duck-herding task from TAR15 Vietnam!)

Possible Double Elim???

[WindsorSue]

Possible Double Elim???

That's my best theory too. It would explain a few things!

[TARUSAFan]

Possible Double Elim???

That's my best theory too. It would explain a few things!

I'm adding a new theory as well. How about forced withdrawal from the Race since temperatures in Vietnam were hot during those times and required medical attention due to dehydration. We know from the preview that Tanya fainted and Anne calling for medic.

Great eyes WindsorSue. I saw from the preview after watching Episode 2, Stephane & Antoine made it to Vietnam

...that's what I meant, and I think Fossil did as well. That article said 2 cast members needed medical (along with 2 crew). And I think that's why the next leg HAD to be an NEL. It explains a few other things too.

[WindsorSue]

There could be one more possibility I guess. One team goes out due to medical, and the other team goes out next week for medical, turning it into an NEL. Or maybe I've been thinking too much about this.

The title of ep 4 is Shine your light and there was a karaoke challenge. And I immediately think about this "Shine your light."

If they have to sing this song, it will be so difficult. As Vietnamese, I sometimes can't hear what they are singing lol

[Maanca]

If they were to get there, that karaoke would be Anne's task. She's the trained singer! (Opera takes a good set of cords to do)

[Maanca]

Something must have happened on Leg 4 that was unexpected, according to the timeline. Next week should have an interesting ending.

8 teams in Leg 4. 7 teams return to Canada the following leg based on number of cars. Yet Leg 4 was seen to be a NEL.

[Joberio]

I think that leg is simply an elimination leg. Anne & Tanya are out next, right? Maybe they just got so far behind, they ended up checking in past 1 the spoilers saw the other teams.  Or they didn't check in at all, and John had to go out onto the course and eliminate them.

[WindsorSue]

I believe the fighter task in leg 6 is at the Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum, in Mount Hope just south of Hamilton. I've driven past it several times, but never been in.
Also, we have speculated that this is a KOR, since Joel and Ashley were seen at the Aldershot Go Station, in transit to Union Station. Two possibilities for a leg 6 pitstop may be the RBG - the Royal Botanical Gardens or Dundurn Castle. Both are close to Aldershot.
