Topic: TAR 25 Speculation and Discussion **of Spoilers**

[albiegato]

So the final 4 is confirmed but final 3 is not right?
Did we ever get the live coverage of the final leg?

There was a sighting at LAX of the three teams waiting for a taxi, and I am 89.9% sure the only F/F team remaining that reached the final 4 was the final team eliminated before the final Leg.

Do you have a copy of this sighting?

[Tar25fan]

Hahaha if I did post like that a bunch of stones would came to me
Well I'm pretty sure there is people that know who  in fact are the final 3 and even who won but I guess for me I will only find out in December

[batman06]

Whoa whoa whoa wait a min I thought Amy and Maya were confirmed in the final 3 what happened???

All four teams were spotted in the same pic. All teams were on the same flight from Manila to LAX via Tokyo Narita.

I can tell you for sure that they were not seen waiting for a taxi!   

We know that they self-drove from LAX south on Sepulveda Blvd.

I can add from some additional research that they drove Ford Explorers that they had to go and find from nearby  Park 'N Fly.

I'm wondering if a fleet-footed Team thought to run from Terminal 6 to Park 'N Fly rather than wait for the few and far between shuttles.  It's only a quarter mile!

I would think that if one team ran, the others would follow. Unless said team missed the shuttle that the other teams were on and then ran to Park 'N Fly.

Thanks Chateau. I remember a past sighting where teams were standing and socializing. I most likely mistaken a Philippines Leg pic for a finale photo.

Really enthusiastic to hear a self-drive finale.

[Chateau d If]

Me too!   

But they must have ditched the Fords later on because they all arrived by taxi to the mat.

This must have been the shortest run-to-the mat's ever:  about 150 feet.  The waiting Teams could see who gets out of the taxis.

I could actually HEAR Phil shouting: 

"Who's it gonna be, who's it gonna be? "

"Teeth?  "

"Candy?  "

"or Cowabunga?  " 

[Bookworm]

Teeth- Jim & Misti
Cowabunga- Bethany & Adam
Candy-  Amy & Maya are food scientists, but what connection do Brooke & Robbie have to candy?

[Tar25fan]

Nothing, they are most likely the final 4 boot. I must be the only one that don't see them in that picture in the airport which have all of the other three teams and camera crew together

I read somewhere molecular gastronomers (scientists who work with the chemical/physical properties of food and change their state of matter) work with the caramelization of candy.

I honestly will be fairly shocked if Amy & Maya make the final 3 over "muscles".

[Tar25fan]

Very happy that food scientists made to final 3. I hope they won

[Bookworm]

OMG YAASSSSS GO AMAYA. Slayyyyyyyy.

[batman06]

You just gave away the title episode for the finale. !

AMAYA

[RachelLeVega]

This has to be the most unpredictable season in a long time. The only thing that will send 25 close to the top of my chart would be a suspenseful set of soundtrack like back in the TAR11-TAR17 era.

From a West Indies beginning to a Moroccan mid-season, from a tightrope walk in Singapore to "My Ox Is Broken!", with the cast this season, it could most likely be the best HD season yet!

[Declive]

Sorry to be late but do we have the F3 confirmed?

[Bookworm]

Amy & Maya, Adam & Bethany, Misti & Jim (and they HOPEFULLY finished in that order)

CBS Press Release says we have 8 countries this season, but I can count 9. Am I missing something?

1. USA (NYC/LA + US VI)
2. UK (England + Scotland)
3. Denmark
4. Sweden
5. Morocco
6. Italy
7. Malta
8. Singapore
9. Philippines

I know those press releases aren't very accurate, but surely they wouldn't promote teams traveling to less countries than they actually did?

Would it be a TAR 19 situation with Italy? Because technically they visited the Netherlands but didn't list it.
