Amazing Race 19 LIVE Sightings! Tweets Go here please! **read post 1**
apskip:
The timing of this being reported at 959pm on June 18 is a predictor of its veracity. Here are the 3 flights which teams are expected to have gotten LAX to TPE:
19 JUN 2011
CI 7 (0057-0500, scheduled 0055-0550) from Los Angeles to Taipei
BR 1 (0132-0534, scheduled 0115-0600) from Los Angeles to Taipei
BR 15 (0144-0548, scheduled 0135-0620) from Los Angeles to Taipei
Timing of all of them is perfect for that "dropped-passport" story being true. It does not guarantee that it is, but there is a high probability that it could be.
Prophet:
I wish he had told us who it was. I think I remember him saying it was a female and that he made it to return it to them. It should make for some interesting drama in episode one, but I don't think it harms any racers.
north09:
He was probably the kind stranger mentioned in the episode title

I'm really curious of what became of this. Was it real?

I tend to believe it. There were a couple more tweets about how he was racing to the airport to give it back to them. After he had supposedly arrived at the airport and returned it, he clammed up completely, presumably because TAR had him sign a statement allowing them to use his image and probably requiring him to not say anything about what he'd seen. The whole episode was pretty convincing and it rang true to me. If he made it all up, he should be writing screenplays.
He apparently has some minor connections to Hollywood. His twitter description mentions being, among other things, "Apparel Stylist for You & the STARS :)" So, it was probably in his best interest to cooperate with TAR. I went to his twitter feed just now and could find nothing related to this incident. It could be that he removed it (if that's possible), but more likely, the twitter search doesn't go back to June.

If the passport story is true, then the title probably refers to the guy returning it. We'll probably hear a quote like "We only made the flight to Taiwan due to the kindness of strangers."
Update: Nevermind my speculations, I see in the EP1 thread that it's already been reported that the TAR preview shown during "The Mentalist" specifically mentions the lost passport. Kind of ironic to have a contestant's half-mental moment revealed during "The Mentalist". :lol:
