It didn't happen last season, so they might do it this season.

I think you got your legs mixed up. Lori & Bolo's Fast Forward was on an elimination leg -- the one that claimed Gus & Hera. Hayden & Aaron were saved on the leg of Adam & Rebecca's Fast Forward -- the one with the walking in the scuba diving suit thing.

Correct! Thank you for correcting!
:lol:
Moo:
I quite have to disagree with this being a TBC leg... (Hoping for an extra episode, making India an uberleg... hehehe) :jumpy:
The route map shown with 11 pitstops and a finish in Maui? Not unless they consider the midpoint (LIKE IN TARA2) a pitstop, The fifth pitstop is really scheduled being in Novosibirsk then the rest in Asia.
Next, BvM and the producers LOVE meddling teams in India, especially with the Speedbump. It creates so much drama. I guess the Speedbump would be there in India again.
I also don't think that the Fast Forward would show in this leg at all, Having three legs in China :wohoo:, I believe that we'll all see the U-TURN, SPEED BUMP and the "ONE and ONLY" AIRED FAST FORWARD there. When I saw Christie running in the roadblock, her number says that she's seven... how could she be in seventh when there can only be six teams running if one goes for the fast forward?
And I think Karma's starting to bite Margie/Luke's ass because of their U-TURN just as shown in the previews. :ascared They're sourgraping that T/V left them in thin air, yet they initiated the whole blind u-turn thing, obviously getting target at their backs because they themselves announced that they U-TURNED Amanda and Kris. They also said it in the start of the episode - its for one million dollars. I also don't get their logic of u-turning someone, already being anonymous, and then announcing it to the whole cast.
That's my note. We'll just have to see it more on Sunday (for you guys - I catch it Monday mornings in SE Asia - and this week, I couldn't watch it via satellite because of exams... :'( :'( :'(, considerably waking up early just to watch the episode)

Peach, the ballet/opera place could be another indoor pit stop/mat. With temps sub-freezing and probably sub-zero F, they might want to protect Phil.
That detour with the tires reminds me of a go kart track. There is someting similiar close to the runnng route.
Moo:
EDIT: If this is indeed a TBC leg, wouldn't we see the fast forward in India and not in Russia? :lol:

The shot of Michael (w/ Mark) in the machine with the tires does actually look like there are "lanes" - so maybe the task is maneuvering that beast through a track.
I'm starting to doubt my theory that the images of Margie/Luke and Tammy/Victor in the cars are a detour because Margie appears to be asking someone for directions. So unless that's part of the detour, I'm not sure, but I doubt it.
The episode descriptions say "A car's stick shift gets the best of one duo on the icy Siberian streets." and "Slippery streets and a stick shift nearly slide one team out of the race." - and that does not necessarily mean it is a detour, just someone having difficulty driving.
So my guess is
Roadblock: Running in skivvies
Detours: Drive giant machine through course or.... ? something we haven't seen - maybe dancing ballet!!! ;)
I'm also guessing the roadblock is first ONLY because Cara/Jaime look really put together as they open the clue.
The other thing unaccounted for is "One team goes for the fun-will their party priorities pay off?" That is the only thing that seems like it would be a FF. The only shots of Mike/Mel are Mike teasing Luke on the train and of Mike rubbing his face with 'worry' in the backseat of a car.
Any guesses if the police sirens at the end of that one commercial are in part of the episode somewhere?
