EP11: "Good Doing Business with You."

hakushu8:
I can't use my laptop, too, Michael. I poured o.j. on the keyboard. I need to have it fixed in the US Mainland. :groan:

Anyways, I'm thinking of another scenario on how this leg could be a TBC. Think back (unfortunately) to the TAR 8 finale. In the first hour, remember how they had to search for one of three departure times from Parc Olympique? What if something of the like was done here too, wherein they had to search (what we're thinking to be the pitstop) Lou Lim Ieoc Gardens for departure times (most likely, airplane tickets) to Guam via Hong Kong.

Following this info that apskip posted before:


--- Quote ---Teams should take the hydrofoil back to Hong Kong since the International Airport has superior flights to everywhere.
Flight options start at 1010 with JAL730 to NRT 1010 to 1500, then CO007 NRT to GUM 1715 to 1950 and end with the most direct routing of CEBU AIR 119 to MNL 1940 to 2140, then CO934 MNL to GUM 2310 to 0440. There are about 10 other combinations in between.
--- End quote ---

It seems like the majority of the flights from HK to GU are in the morning. So maybe:
* Teams reach Lou Lim Ieoc Gardens from the afternoon 'till the night, searching for the tickets.
* No pit stop, instead the teams were instructed (is this possible?) by the production team to stay in Macau until the morning.
*** This scenario could still allow the Dustin/Kandice comment in Mandarin Hotel (?) because that team (or maybe everyone) decided to stay their for the night. And I think they could do a pseudo-pitstop interview... right?
* In the morning, teams ride the hydrofoil from Macau to HK. Then they go to the airport.
*** Assuming teams go directly to AAFB, Charla/Mirna got the first and only flight out of HK, and that's why they have that huge lead, like in Batu Caves (from chevy's post). The other three teams are in second flight.
*** OR Charla/Mirna and Eric/Danielle get first two tickets, but Eric/Danielle got lost when they were driving up to AAFB from the airport. Can't imagine how this is possible. Or maybe customs had to quarantine Eric/Danielle for a bit, because of what they were bringing from HK (Danielle's implants, perhaps? :lol3:).

So there. Feel free to point and laugh. :happy:

Peach with Oswald and Danny just getting suited up for the Fast Forward at 2pm.  I would guess they check in at the Pit Stop between 2:45pm and 3:15pm.

So I think Dustin & Kandice should be much closer to an hour behind them, I still think at least.

With the Sunset being very near 5:40pm, I imagine the Dustin & Kandice checked in around 4pm to 4:30 pm.  With no real shadows or sun to judge angel, it still looks fairly well lite with cloud cover.

With Charla & Mirna who do the boat task after the sun has fully set, so I would guess they arrive at 6:30-7:00pm.

Eric & Danielle I would guess by the even darker stages of their progress between 7:30-8:30pm.

With a sunrise of 6:55 am for the next day (give or take a minhute or so.)

So most of the teams should be leaving the Pit Stop in the dark.

So I would have to assume that Hours of operation ome into play before any event.  ANd since we don't see the teams bunched as a group of 4 anywhere, but it does kind of look like purhaps at the Yield area that we have two groups of two teams, that means the detour is probably first for the day. 

Unless all l teams get bunched at the tower (like season 10's yiled) and somehow Eric & Danielle just get to it faster (like Tyler & James did who were third in line but easily first to the yield.

michael:
if you watch D/K mat chat with Phil you see the sun begins to go down as he is talking with them...it gets noticeably darker towards the end of the conversation.

mswood:
Michael

Edited.  Sorry Michael I was thinking of the week before's side chats.

Yeah witht he Sun easily going down in those shots, Change BQ's to sometime after 5:20-5:30pm.

georgiapeach:
We are missing something.

With those times, there is no way that E/D are rolling out noodles at 0530.

IF (big if) his watch is correctly set to local time, then it has to be 1730.

So what the heck are they doing all day?

Roadblock first with HofOp? Then they wouldn't be first to the tower but likely last.

Help!
