4/19 EP9 title~ " We Have A bad Elephant"
gingerman28:
Some interesting bits and pieces from CBS's SUNDAY MORNING program today:
A plug for this week's The Early Show: "On the Early Show this week, The Amazing Race and Survivors castoffs"
Are they plugging an ELIMINATION leg this week? If so, it would be Elimination Number Seven or of Eight with only one more to occur on April 26, May 3 or May 10. If it is indeed an elimination episode (legs are getting confusing since we have a nu mber of double legs) this week, then next week could be the NON ELIMINATION episode and the Eighth Elimination could be on May 3. This would leave THREE teams to race through a double leg during the two-hour FINALE on May 10. Could make sense. So lets consider that if they announce it live on the air that TES will have a castoff on its show, they usually do so. And if it is an elimination leg - will Romber interrupt their Honeymoon in the Bahamas to appear on the show??? (could be live from Atlantis, I suppose, but really)
Another look and it seems at least three teams are pushing those wooden elephants (sometimes they push and sometimes they lead, so it must be a difficult route to follow) We see Rob and Amber pushing and leading; Ron and Kelly pushing and leading; and Meredith leading with Gretchen perched up on high (trying to find the way?) and at the end of the clip, Meredith bends over in agony or disgust or out of patience or just plain lost again!) That's where Gretchen could say "We have a bad elephant." Nothing on Alex and Lynn with the elephants so there may be another task involved in a Detour. Also nothing on Uchenna and Joyce at either the Roadblock (Camels) or Detour (Elephants) Far shot of someone with dark hair and dark long-sleeve shirt on getting hair shorn. Joyce or a native plant?
Hard to tell which task comes first in Jodhpur since the shadows look long for both the elephant race and the camel race. So one could be early morning the other could be late afternoon or vice versa.
MrsKutz:
I think that U and J get the fast foward. and are not eliminated.
I think that R & A go for the fast forward, decide not to do it...end up in the bottom two, but DO NOT GET eliminated this leg.... I think they will be yielded in the next leg or the one after and that will take them out. Maybe as fourth.
I think there are no clips of L and A in the previews.... at least in the second part (not the camels).
I think Ron and Kelly will not be eliminated. They are currently second, and do not try for the fast forward. I think they finish second or third, on this leg.
I think that L & A OR M & G finish the leg last last and are elimin. WHich ones, I am not sure.

Gman I caught this quick flash of Lynn pushing..its blurred but I'm almost sure its him .
I also think only one team goes for the FF U&J , I was thinking of Rombers last going for the FF incident and how it put them behind waiting to see if Deana & Ray could do it or not and they wasted alot of time standing around .
Also about the NEL or not..The Early show hyped this up last week to . All we can do is wait untill 5:30 E/T on Tuesday to check the newspath " promo" update for coming up on the Early Show to confirm whether or not there is any mention of TAR or not , last week there was no mention at all .
And yeah I fear that M&G may get mugged by Phil once more , we see Meredith huffing /catching his breath with Gretchen riding on top and apparently not helping ..of course we still have Raceygirls P/R airport pics that may or may not support a Ron & Kelly mugging at some point , if thats Ron..I still have a hinkie that its not.

Why would you think RA go for the FF when the FF in Amber's hand looks liek it was not even opened??
Anyway we see them there with Ron and Kelly, and Alex is walking behind Rob when he says something about Ambers cammel. And MEredith and Lynn were doing the RB together so all four teams are together at the RB so i highly doubt RA go for the FF.
My Guess is that this is the placeing at the end of the episode
1. Uchenna and Joye
But i dont know the corse for the cammels but my guess is
2. Ron and Kelly
3. Rob and Amber
4. Lynn and Alex
Eliminated: Meredith and Gretchen.
I dont know if the info on Rob and Amber and that they wont be in NY Wends is reliable or not. I know they just got married in the Bahamas but i dont know how long they will stay there for.
