I understand that :tup:
My thinking was that every other team is in a promo but them, which I initially thought implied their boot (rather than Michael/Kevin who were heavily featured, or even Chad/Stephenie who had at least one clip) since the things that the previews build up aren't usually fatal.
But now I think that they aren't showing Gary/Mallory because they don't want to spoil the use of the FF. I'm pretty sure Meghan/Cheyne got ignored in the previews before they won their FF, as did Ken/Tina, so that it wouldn't be completely obvious they got it. Unlike in previous editions (15 and 8 come to mind, as does 16 I think), Phil didn't explicitly state that this was the only FF in the race, which suggests that there's another one attempted/completed somewhere.

Doesn't suggest a thing to me -- they could just be cutting the explanation they way they got rid of "a Road Block is a task that only one person can perform" and "a Detour is a choice between two tasks, each with its own pros and cons".

I know they're likely to be eliminated here, but what if it's the opposite? What if they're ahead, either from a FF or just plain skill (and then get bunched in Oman and lose next leg). Did Phil explicitly state that the sheep head was the only FF this season?

I suppose it is possible that they force one team to do a FF in order to have the other six do an Intersection. However, this sort of conclusion seems to me to be the result of over-analyzation.
