EP4: "Let's Name Our Chicken Phil"
puddin:
Sunday, November 25, 8pm et/pt
Clues:
LET'S NAME OUR CHICKEN PHIL
It's American Idol, African-style, as Teams take center stage and dance to impress local celebrities from Burkina Faso. Perform without originality and suffer a 10-minute penalty!
A new wrinkle in the Race causes friction between two Teammates as one fears a target has been painted on their backs and karma will bite them from behind.
One Racer cannot control tears from flowing as she is surprised by how kind the people of Africa have been to her.
Well I don't know but here goes and remember this can be changed -- I'm guessing here!! ^^ Thats a good idea banzai, wish we knew 100% about the U-turn wrinkle.
tv guide magazine blurb:
11/25 Amazing Race 12:
Sure we love the globe-trotting and the challenges, but we also can't help but chortle with delight as teamates turn on one another ---like one duo does tonight. Hee-hee! My guess Shana & Jennifer, Jennifer is worried because Shana chose to U-Turn Jason/Lorena
Clues:
LET'S NAME OUR CHICKEN PHIL Jason & Lorena?
.
*One Racer cannot control tears from flowing as she is surprised by how kind the people of Africa have been to her. Hendeka?
Teams leave the pitstop in this order~
Azaria & Hendekea -1st Place (Safe= Croatia)
TK & Rachel 2nd- Place (Safe=Croatia)
Nathan & Jennifer -3rd Place (in danger?)
Kynt & Vyxsin - 4th Place (safe = Croatia)
Ron & Christina - 5th Place(Safe=Croatia)
Nicolas & Donald - 6th Place (Safe= Croatia)
Shana & Jennifer - 7th Place(Safe= Croatia)
Lorena & Jason - 8th Place (in danger?)
Teams running:
Detours Break Out or Dig Out
My spec:
U-turn: the chicken task; it's an extra task; when they're done, come back and do the detour
Roadblock: the bicycle task; Jenn is solo; it's her turn to do it; they alternate every leg
Detour: American Idol or Gold Digging thanks to banzai

AOL article:
"After 12 seasons, you don't want the contestants to go into the race thinking, 'I know what's next,'" said co-executive producer Elise Doganieri. The show will crisscross the world, from Holland to India to Croatia, and head to a few off-the-beaten-track towns that will send viewers grabbing for their globes.

Gosh--I never took that order literally? Should we?
I was thinking BF, +/- other Africa, Florence, Dubrovnik, Lithuania, India, ?somewhere, Osaka, Taipei, Girdwood, Finale.
Maybe BF is a TBC and they're still chasing chickens? :lol:

puddin, please look at the Speculative Timelines thread for guidance on where teams go next after Burkina Faso. Niamey, Niger is speculative, but there are some very substantial reasons for it. It is almost certain that teams do NOT go directly to India from Burkina Faso for these reasons:
1. The time incurred to go to India and then back to Europe would add 2 days and this Amazing Race doesn't have 2 days to spare if all stops are going to be made and Alaska reached by July 29.
2. Bertram stated that there would be 2 African stops. I believe him.
3. The only sensible way to get to India is from Vilnius and to Osaka.
4. NOTE: ADDED LATER - The optimum flights to Delhi India(gateway to Jaisalmer and a lot of other places in India) are via Paris-Charles-DeGaulle airport coming from West African places such as Ouagadougou or Niamey or several other West African capital cities because that is the way the air routes were set up. It makes no sense to fly to India and then return to Europe to catch Florence, Dubrovnik and Vilnius when you are right there in Europe for that connection.
I think people who are reading Elise Doganieri's statement Holland to India to Croatia literally are making a mistake.
