Elana & Tameka arrive by taxi to the Rainbow bridge about half a minute after Mary & Cecilia (you can see the latter rush into the entrance when the former arrive). From the entrance it is about 200 meters to the pit stop. Yet they are released 12 minutes after Mary & Cecilia. In this case I must admit that we did not see them in the background when Mary & Cecilia checked in so they could have gotten lost.
But teams 3-5 arrived simultaneously to the mat. They just jumped on it one after the other. But team #4 was released 9 minutes after #3 and #5 16 minutes after #4.
It seems as if either do teams get lots of penalties or time credits, or production prefers to just make up start times.

That's not unique to this version, though -- remember TAR14's Phuket leg? Mark & Michael arrive first but are given an hour's penalty for actions at the Detour, then Tammy & Victor arrive. Before Tammy & Victor can get off the mat (ie. within a minute or so), and when Mark & Michael only have one minute of their penalty time left, Jaime & Cara arrive. But then at the start of the next leg, Jaime & Cara are suddenly over three hours behind Tammy & Victor, and there's another fifteen minutes between the girls and the brothers. And that's even ignoring the plane arrival in Leg 7 and their departure time implying Tammy & Victor completed all their travel, the elephant and tiger tasks, the drawers, and the incredibly-physical 2 Miles Detour task within just 29 minutes.

Maybe some caption idiot at CBS made the error. Or could we get Luke to tell us what happen?
weihen:
First team finish all tasks and quit the race?
weihen:
No one watched this leg? :lol:
kevin2012:
poor Summer and Eachen, has any other team ever quit the race due to personal matters?
Note: I'm too busy at the moments to do caps of the preview, I'll do them tomorrow

Eachan's grandfather has passed away. :'(
