And we learned that you CAN U Turn a team, even if you have been U Turned.

I think we need another promo or two to decide what story CBS is trying to tell us this week.
I was shocked that the Redheads were able to U-Turn another team without completing the entire Detour.

I think since the redheads got last and eliminated, we won't really know if they were or were not allowed to U-Turn. I think maybe they could have gotten a BIG penalty when they got to the mat if they weren't last. That's just me speculating though.

I believe that you can use the Double U-Turn once you get there (specifically after performing the first side of the Detour)

Yes and apparently you could incorrectly complete the Detour you chose and still legitimately u-turn a team even if it's an advantage for doing it incorrectly. I've asked Mark & Bill during one of the RFF interviews a few years back and they said that they wouldn't have gotten a bigger penalty if they used the U-turn instead (they did consider doing the U-turn on Marisa & Brooke...), as long as you get to know where the U-turn sign is and you get there ahead of the team you wish to do the U-turn on.

So theoretically, one could follow a team to the U-Turn, use it, then go back and do the Detour?
