EP10: 11/30 'You're Gonna Get Me Killed'
Xarles:
Remember that from the very first reports from Portland, someone mentioned that "they were being sent" to Seattle?
If the Frats really misplaced their passports and recovered them ASAP the same morning of the Moscow-Frankfurt-Portland flight they could have come in the following flights through SEATTLE, NOT IN TIME FOR THE FINISH LINE, but in time for the confessional:
10:10 am Depart Moscow (SVO)
Arrive Portland (PDX) 4:50 pm Sunday
Duration: 17hr 40mn Aeroflot-Russian Airlines 229 Northwest 33 / 5186
Connect in Amsterdam (AMS), Seattle (SEA)
They might have come through Seattle and maybe an extra crew was sent from Portland to Seattle to meet them at SEA-TAC, hence someone mentioning "they were sent to Seattle". This makes sense for the Frats's 6PM sighting... as decoys.
Of course this all means that I am betting on the Frats' elimination in leg 10, due to their slowness, inabilities, immaturity and of course, the speedbump... and maybe a U-turn when-where they felt comfortable to leave their passports?

Xarles, I like most of your thinking. However the "connect in Amsterdam and Seattle" approach does not have to be for Dan and Andrew. It could apply to any of the other 3 teams just as well if they lost important documents they need to exit Russia and enter the U.S.. We know that Nick/Starr are capable of losing important documents. It would be easy for me to think that Ken/Tina could also have done so. I think Toni doing it is the least probable scenario, as she is the most responsible individual currently in the race.
Xarles:
Adding to my speculation of the Frats -misplacing- their passports and only their passports... they were moneyless already and we donīt know if they were getting money for the next leg:
On E09 there's a confessional, taped in Portland, where they state: "I was not a fan of buying the shoes".
Why so many explanations if they were not the "mistake experts"? Why if they were with the pack? Why if they were the winners? God forbid. Why in Portland? Why that late?
Here is my speculation:
During leg 10 the Frats misplace/forget/abandon their documents, as they are not worried for the money since there is none or little. Then, after the speedbump, they arrive last, way behind as they had been back somewhere to pick up their documents after they figured out they didn't have them, they get eliminated, then they, again, go back looking for their passports, find them or realize where did they leave them, but the place (where they left them) won't open until next morning.
They were so late to the pitstop that our Moscow informant missed them and second place went to Toni and Dallas.
F3 depart Moscow at 7AM on next day to Portalnd, Frats are not in the F3 but attention is at how will they get out of Russia to join the rest at the finish line since they don't have their documents.
After or during the final episode (E11) BVM has to let us know if any left-behinds arrive safely back in the US and that's why they are taped late in the evening at the Mansion, so we all get to know they came back safely and all of the explanations on how they lost their documents and how they had to take the Amsterdam-Seattle connection.
They might have been sent as decoys in the evening -just for confusing US on WHO had lost their documents-!

I like that better than poor Toni/Dallas losing their stuff. I can't wait to see how it all unfolds. :hearts:
And I have been saying for ages that someone ran decoy after the mat.... :yes: :angel:
Why is Andrew in an antique store scratching his head? ??? Looking for a clue on a scavenger hunt? Or a passport? :lol:
georgiapeach:
And we finally get to see Chateau's Museum used with a cluebox: gosh, was that REALLY 6 months ago?!
