Archive > The Amazing Race 17 Spoilers & Speculation
TAR 17 EP 12 (FINALE) "Hi. I'm sorry. I'm in a Race."
Minnesota_Friend:
:xmas49 Hello again. This is your long-time Admiring Lurker. You guys are amazing. But I still wonder about a show clip that you haven't discussed yet: Nat & Kat's final words on Episode 11 Korea. I know TPTB like teams to forecast victory, but Nat's final words & demeanor don't seem to fit the usual pattern. To whit:
"It's an honor to be the first all-female team to win The Amazing Race." Present tense verb.
I know you've analyzed the still shots from this frame, but the word choice and Nat's tone of voice are what caught my attention. Very un-TAR-like. I'm curious about whether she's congratulating Brook & Claire, or stating the obvious (with JT winning), or spoiling their own finish. Thoughts, anyone? (I need to rewatch this episode...CBS, YouTube, Hulu, whatever....)

ok this is kinda late for this, but we were mentioning katie and rachel's facial expressions as to predicting who would win. anyways, what you need to do is download the torrent for episode 11 or simply watch it online. when they preview the finale, they "run down" the final mat of everyone clapping...if you continuously press pause and play, you will see that to the right of phil, ron and tony are the farthest and next to them are katie and rachel...katie and rachel both have a smile on their face.
Levi Rinno:
That's because that was pretaped ahead of time, before anyone arrived.

Sorry, but I think she says it WOULD be an honor...so no lead there.
Chateau d If:
I have to admit that the order of events I proposed could be switched up a bit and still fit our known evidence.
Here is another route that teams could take:
1) Take a taxi from LAX to the *** landmark in Long Beach.
2) Taxi from *** landmark to the BFB container shipyard (made up name). Complete Bungee Swing challenge.
3) Taxi from BFB to tiny helipad next to the Catalina ferry terminal (insert name of helipad if you know it).
4) Ride helicopter to the Rose Bowl. Decorate float.
5) Take a taxi from the Rose Bowl to xyz Studio in Studio City. Solve mental puzzle.
6) Take a taxi from xyz Studio to Greystone Mansion. Finish Mat.
Which means they had to find three things in Long Beach/San Pedro: Three chances to get seriously lost, I know from personal experience .
