TAR 18 Ep 5 "Don't Ruin the Basketball Game" (Kunming, China)
DrRox:
One thing I didnt put in the previous analysis. Kent and Vyxen obviously booked their flight at a ticket counter @ Narita. It does appear that all the other teams just got boarding passes at Narita. So if Kent/Vyxen skipped a "route info" stop at a travel agency in Tokyo......that might get them the 30 min penalty too. That will be pretty hard for TPTB to explain, since they didn't show any other teams going to the travel agency in Tokyo either.
Prophet:
TPTB could choose to brush over the penalty without airing any of it. :duno: They could just pretend like they check in after the sisters.

I believe the travel agaency gave teams the name/# of the required flight only...not actual tickets. ???
Seems relatively purposeless, unless you wanted to have some teams getting lost.

I still think them showing us that they could get a penalty from Zev and Justin is a foreshadowing. I think there must be something written in the clue that YOU MUST ONLY TAKE THIS FLIGHT or something similar to it otherwise all the teams wouldn't keep going.. "where's Kent and Vyxsin" for like a gazillion times. For the fact we know that the goths didn't gain any time gain from the flight, but if it's a rule that they go on the one and only flight they told them to, then they had to. If they didn't, they will get a penalty + any amount of time they gain.. in this case which is none.
I'm quite pretty sure that there won't be a "NEL Penalty", otherwise if there's no "Flight Penalty", then the goths could also have done something wrongly next leg to earn themself a penalty.. considering they're full of wonderful mistakes this season. :lol:
