Topic: EP5 Title : "Good Thing I Took That Human Anatomy Class in High School"

[Kogs]

Are you watching the travel channel Kogs ? 

Slowhatch Via p**g** ? puget ? I dunno

yes i am right now.

With Eric and Jeremy doesnt it look like Jeremy is pulling semething?

ANYWAY HOPE FOR DAVE AND LORI

Well i watched the preview from after the episode in slow mo [someone plese double check me on this]
And when Dave says "It has to be the thigh" there are tones of done statues but someone is also putting one together [and its NOT LORI] i noticed the clothes black long sleve shirt, grey pants, and like black pants below the grey, and then GUESS who is wearing that LAKE!!! at teh detour he is wearing the same thing. [you can barely see it but i really think its LAKE].  also behind Lori is someone in a Yellow sweat shirt, and like pants [the ones Fran and Barry always wear] and well Barry also has a yellow sweatshirt.

so its VERY POSSIBLE that Fran and Barry, Dave and Lori, and Lake and Michelle are all there together.  and unless Lake and Michelle got lost, or sucked at the RB its very possible the Danielle's could be there too just not scene.

Traditionally CBS shows us a team in peril (Dave and Lori) only to have them survive.  So that thought that Dave/Lori survive is good.

Lake & Michelle are shown at the laundry task with DD.  If Lake /Michelle go to the Pit Stop before the Roadblock, then having Lake/Michelle at Roadblock at the same time as Dave/Lori would fit.

Wouldn't it be interesting if Dave and Lori could finish the statue task before Lake/Michelle because Lake is a dentist and should have a good knowledge of human anatomy.  Once finished with the task, Lori could sarcastically quip, "Good thing I studies human anatomy in high school".

I just watched the preview again and didn't see Lake. As for the person in yellow (I think it's actually orange) shirt and khaki pants, this has been discussed upthread. There are several crew around.

Not lately, Lisa/Lori & Wanda/Desiree (my favs  ) both shown with problems in preview.

Where can I download the preview for next episode? I need to find Lake assembling the statue now!!

Thanks puddin!

Another thing is: it is unlikely that Lake will be putting together the statue. He has done all 3 roadblocks so it's Michelle's turn to do one.

[Hi-Fi]

Apparently, my real player needs an upgrade. I can't see the previews.

Can't we do that thing where we change the light of the pics, kinda of turning night into day. We'd be able to see what's going on in Lori's background.

I don't know guys. This has got to be misdirection!

Well, Michelle is clearly afraid of doing roadblocks.

I can see them at night, under lot of pression:

Lake: "Do it! It's your turn!"

Michelle: "I can't do it! I don't know how to do it! I don't wanna get naked!"

Lake: "Damn it! I'll do it! I don't wanna be last"
 

[puddin]

Hi_Fi I tried making that background lighter but it doesnt help , maybe someone else can ?

heres a vidcap of what we think is Lake driving in the countyside

[Hi-Fi]

Thanks for trying, puddin! Sadly, I don't know how to lighten the background either.


I'm still trying to figure out how could Dave/Lori screw up so badly. I can't think of anything, so maybe they're not that far behind. Maybe Fran/Berry and Lake/Michelle are just in the same situation.

We know that MOJO, BJ/Tyler and Eric/Jeremy did this task in daylight. But how about the others?? Rayolanda? Double Dee?

Actually that rule hasnt been mentioned and i heard that small things were changing this season.  i also wouldnt be surprised if they Yield was done away with also.

And i am telling you WATCH THE PREVIEW AS SLOW AS POSSBLE when Dave said "It has to be the thigh" there are like i think maybe 3 or 4 statues completed around him, and someone is putting one together its in the distance and so small.

And the "crew" was putting something together behind Lori. also i jsut rewatched and behind Lori looks to be a totally uncomplete statue laying on the floor.

I am so confidant that i am willing to say Fran and Barry, Lori and Dave, and Lake and Michelle are the Last three teams.
For the record though if the first teams to arrive to the closer statues Lake/Michelle arrive first because they are seen in the shot [like i said] and Lori is not she must be further down the line.  And Fran and Barry are either right ahead or behind Dave and Lori.

My prediction is BJ and Tyler get lucky and find the shirt fast then the Bells [MOJO, and Ray and Yolanda] arrive next followed by the lucky bastards Eric and Jeremy.  The Dees pass Lake and Michelle [who prolly get lost].  Then Lake and Michelle arrive followed by Dave adn Lori, and last Fran and Barry.  how they arrive at the pit stop my guess is its the asme order, with maybe FB and DL switching spots.

I think the roadblock limit is still around, watch the insider clip where Lake talks about it to Michelle.

As for a lightened cap, Boingo already did that, you can see it on page 5.

Unassembled statue etc - all discussed upthread.

[Kogs]

just a pic

Phil hasn't mentioned it and he constantly said it in Seasons 6 and 7.  And hey is Michelle cant build things Lake has to do it.  Rob had to use up his roadblocks becuase Amber just couldnt drive stick [thats was 2 RBs].

libra is right. The roadblock limit still going on.Michelle says in the insider videos that she needs to start doing her roadbloc quota. Lake and Michelle are just dumb for not having her try a roadblock yet.

And I just saw the Boingo pic, libra. You're right. I guess never saw the guy in the red shirt and grey pants (David?)

What could have possible happen with Dave/Lori between the detour(daylight, with Lake/Michelle and Dannis, they're still in the race) and the roadblock (night already, completely alone aparently)? They must have got really lost or tried a fast foward but fell behind.
But I still thinks it's all misdireaction. 

[Hi-Fi]

Besides, why does Lori looks happy when she finally assemble the statue?? She should be running the hell out of there if she was in fact last.


Or...they just know they're far behind and gave up.

Hi-Fi, I asked the same question earlier, I forgot who answered.

When Lori is laughing the statue is almost complete except the head, when she is breaking down she's still working on the thighs (this happens first).

Why they are so behind? I don't know. It's a possibility that they switch detour.

[puddin]

David is not standing by Lori hes yelling to her and you can see his long shadow with the camara man



and these could be Lori's pieces in the background ( or were a few extra pieces that don't fit thrown in to throw them off ? ) , but for arguement sakes there very well could be another team there , we just can't be 100% sure either way without a better picture

[puddin]

as noted by Gman , if David is still in Palermo the lights on the buildings are turning on

[puddin]

But the interesting thing is that in the background you can see that in front of many of the buildings the decorative lights are now on.  If they are on timers it means that it is just about sunset, which means it is around 4:45PM.  AND, if David is still in Palermo

[charlierose]

This is really getting complicated.  Can DAvid and Lori be eliminated?   For what Gman has said they are dead last.
