Amazing Race Season 27, Episode 11, "It's not easy beating green"
Film date: probably 2015-07-12 - 2015-07-13
As usual this episode starts with an extra scene from the previous leg. This time it is just after the pit stop and we get to see the tension between Justin & Diana and Logan & Chris after the former U-turned the latter.
The last pit stop was at a wedding party in Agra. Teams seem to be released from a different place in Agra in the following order:
1. Justin & Diana 07:40 2. Kelsey & Joey 07:47 +0:07 3. Tiffany & Krista 08:50 +1:10 4. Logan & Chris 08:54 +1:14
Route info: "Fly to Hong Kong". Once teams land they will be picked up by a green Rolls-Royce and be driven to the Peninsula hotel where they will find their next clue.
"I'm tired of losing so it's time to get a win", Joey has four 2nd place in a row
"It's not easy beating green", Krista gets the title
Teams end up on the same flight from New Delhi to Hong Kong, probably:
CX698 DEL-HKG 2015-07-11 22:40 - 06:44+1 (scheduled 22:45 - 06:45)
Once teams land they find the Rolls-Royces in the following order:
1. Tiffany & Krista
2. Kelsey & Joey
3. Justin & Diana
4. Logan & Chris
"From tuk-tuk to Rolls-Royce", Joey reflects on their different forms of transportation
"We're usually following the Rolls-Royce so it's definitely a nice change on things", Chris (the Paparazzi)
Unsurprisingly the hotel drivers actually know where the hotel is so teams arrive at the hotel in the same order they left the airport. At the hotel they find their next clue box in front of the entrance.
Detour: Sam's or Cells
In Sam's teams must make their way to the world famous Sam's the tailor. Pick up an order form and make their way to his workshop. Here they must cut six pieces of fabric after a pattern. Once their cutting has been approved they must deliver a finished suit back to the store.
Sam's workshop turns out to be a very cramped and hot place. Tiffany & Krista are very confident when they go into the detour since they are used to sewing. Unfortunately they over-think the task and start preparing to actually sew the garment when all they need is to cut out the pieces. After a short while they realize their mistake and reread their clue.
The easiest way to cut the pieces is to fold the fabric over since the pieces are pairwise mirrored. Chris knows this but is overruled by Logan.
In Cells teams make their way to a market at Kweilin street where used cellphones are sold. They must then search through the bins containing hundreds of phones until they find one which works. Once they do they must use it to call a number (Kong Wah, 91488) for the location of their next clue.
"It's pretty much a needle in a haystack", Justin
Finding a working cellphone means that they have to turn them on. This is tedious, but they are lucky and find a working one fairly quickly. They call the stored number and get an address. And this is where things take a turn for the worse for the green team. They do not realize that the address is just two blocks away. Instead they jump into a taxi and show their handwritten address.
Meanwhile at the tailor Kelsey & Joey get their first attempt rejected since they have cut half their pieces with the wrong side of the fabric up. Soon thereafter Tiffany & Krista are approved.
In the taxi Justin & Diana have trouble communicating with their driver but manage to learn that it will take 45 minutes to get to their destination. This sows the seeds of doubt in their minds. Their driver drive to a hotel and go in to get directions. Here they find some people who can check their destination and find out that it is very close to where they started, so they have to jump into their taxi again and go back. This extra trip probably took around 40 minutes.
"He doesn't understand so I'm not being rude to him", Justin when Diana asks him to calm down in the taxi
"Who wants to help you when you're yelling like a maniac?" Diana bites back
Teams complete the detour in the following order:
1(+0) Tiffany & Krista, Sam's
2(+0) Kelsey & Joey, Sam's, probably about 25 minutes after #1
3(+1) Logan & Chris, Sam's, probably about 15 minutes after #2
4(-1) Justin & Diana, cell
Route info: "Travel by taxi to the Turbo Jet ferry terminal on Hong Kong island". Teams must now travel to the ferry terminal and take a high speed ferry to Macau where they must make their way to the House of dancing water at the City of dreams casino.
"Tiffany, this gonna be dance, we've got this, we're gonna win", Krista is excited about their next destination
And Justin & Diana's downward spiral continue. A local directs them to the Kowloon ferry terminal, which is closer. But not the place they should go to. Eventually teams end up on two different ferries.
Ferry #1 departs from Hong Kong island and carries:
Kelsey & Joey
Logan & Chris
Tiffany & Krista
Ferry #2 departs from the Kowloon side at 11:30 and carries:
Justin & Diana
The teams on the Hong Kong ferry are surprised that Justin & Diana is nowhere to be seen. But they assume they are in front of them.
Once in Macau teams rush to the taxis. The casino is a big one so all drivers seem to know where it is. Teams arrive at the house of dancing water in the following order:
1(+1) Kelsey & Joey
2(-1) Tiffany & Krista
3(+0) Logan & Chris, shortly after #1
4(+0) Justin & Diana, just as the first two teams are leaving
Road block: Who wants to rise to the occasion?
It this road block contestants must join a typical extravagant casino show. This one is centered around a large indoor pool. Contestants will be guided into the pool where they will catch a big mast like structure as it rises out of the water. They must then drop 30 feet into the pool, dive down and collect a golden fish. They have to do all this before the music stops. All present teams can participate in the same show.
The jump into the pool is scary but actually finding the fish is surprisingly difficult. The lighting is confusing and there are lots of bubbles in the water.
The show last for about 15 minutes and the reset between shows takes about 20 minutes. if teams fail they have to wait for the show to start again. But before they can make their first attempt they will have to change into a costume and have some makeup applied.
"Any chance I get to relax for a minute and not hear Chris yelling at me", Logan enjoy getting her makeup done
We can tell that Krista is a show-girl since she seems to be really in her element doing lots of striking poses, at least until it is time to find the fishes.
"How was it Logan?", Denise meet Logan as she reaches the changing area
"You'll find out", But Logan doesn't want to share any information
Diana arrives just as the first teams leave, she get changed and has her makeup done but as she is about to enter the arena she is told:
"We're going to need to wait here for about 20 minutes", by the staff
She has just missed the start of the next performance. This means that Krista is getting one more chance to complete the task before Diana can make her first attempt.
Once Justin hears from Tiffany what the task actually entails he wants to kick himself. He feels the task is 100% designed for him but they picked Diana since they thought it was going to be a fear-based task.
"I would give back all our wins just for this one", Justin is one big ball of emotions as he watches
Both Justin & Diana are really distraught since they feel that they are staring into the throat of the the elimination monster.
It is hearth breaking to see Krista struggle with this task. Tiffany is also extremely tense as she sit and watch Krista fail. But to their credit, both Tiffany and Justin, seem to be very supportive of their partners.
Krista fails her second attempt to get the fish and for her third show she is joined by Diana.
"I have to jump from here?", Diana realize that the jump is high
Krista frustration must be enormous when Diana gets it on her first attempt, specially since she must know that they are now in last. But she does not give up.
"Don't give up Krista", Justin encourages Krista as he is leaving
Krista doesn't really appreciate Justin's words at the moment but is more receptive to the support from Tiffany. And Tiffany does her best to encourage her partner.
"You can't fail at anything you do because that's not you", Tiffany
After some pep talk Krista finally manages to complete the task on her fifth attempt.
Teams complete the road block in the following order (* denotes team member doing the roadblock):
1(+2) Logan* & Chris (6-5) On her 1st attempt 2(-1) Kelsey* & Joey (6-5) On her 1st attempt 3(+1) Justin & Diana* (5-6) On her 1st attempt 4(-2) Tiffany & Krista* (5-6) On her 5th attempt
Route info: "Make your way to Nam Van Lake". This is the pit stop for this leg of the race.
Teams travel here by taxi (14min). The first two teams both prepare for a footrace to the mat. Even though they do not see each others. In the end it is not really that close, Logan & Chris arrive first with a comfortable margin.
"Five in a row Phil", Joey is frustrated about their 5th 2nd place finish
The first two teams stay on the mat to see which the third team to reach the finale will be.
Meanwhile Justin & Diana are in a taxi on their way to the pit stop. Now that they think they are more or less safe they can relax and make up after a stressful day.
"I'm sorry I take my frustrations out on you", Justin apologies to Diana
"I don't think other teams are going to be happy to see us", Justin as they approach the pit stop
And we get to hear the reactions from the two teams waiting at the pit stop. And unsurprisingly Justin is right, they are not happy.
Justin & Diana are very happy to hear that they are the third team to arrive. But Phil continues with his classic "However...". Since Justin & Diana took the wrong ferry (from Kowloon rather than Hong Kong) they get a 30 minutes penalty, and they get an additional 25 minutes because that is how much faster that route was. So in total Justin & Diana have to wait out a 55 minute penalty.
So now we have a tense situation. When they reached the pit stop Krista is still struggling with the road block and nobody knows if they will be able to reach it before the penalty runs out.
"The longest 55 minuets of our life", Justin
"Krista & Tiffany need to be working their butts off right now. Hopefully they are not giving up", Logan
As they are waiting we get to see Krista complete the road block and they get into a taxi. Unfortunately for them the taxi takes them to the wrong place. It s not far out of the way but they still loose valuable minutes.
The episode is cut so that it looks like a tense race between the penalty time and Tiffany & Krista. But as usual we do not know how big the time difference was in the end.
"I can't believe it", Logan is not happy with the result
Teams reach Phil in the following order:
1(+0) Logan & Chris, win a trip to Peru
2(+0) Kelsey & Joey
Justin & Diana, get a 55 minutes penalty
3(+0) Justin & Diana
4(+0) Tiffany & Krista, are eliminated
All teams are still at the mat as Krista & Tiffany finally arrive. So they are not surprised by Phil's words.
"We didn't make it to the final three but we were darn close, and if we inspired one person then that is all that matters", Krista
Leg 11
My hometown! Geographically a lot simpler to do Sam's rather than Cells. Not sure if it would have been faster for teams to take the Star Ferry from Tsimshatsui to Central before running over to the HK-Macau Ferry Terminal? Would have certainly saved a lot of cash!

Another possibility is a penalty for Justin & Diana.Could be the other way around, couldn't it? That Tiffany & Krista got penalized, and Justin's reacting out of relief?
They think they over-ran Tiffany/Krista and when Phil tells them their penalty, Justin cries and that's when the boat finishes its circuit and begins to go left.

Final Three finale!
According to the episode preview at the end of this week's episode, the next leg will have a "shocking elimination" in the next Pit Stop that a team will be eliminated at the end of leg 11.
I think Kelsey's not-very-happy face and Joey's "Wow" suggests Justin & Diana survived? I may be going too far here but ??? Not saying that they'd be jumping up and down :lol: (I probably would)
Based on that and everyone else's faces (and the fact that I don't believe they'd literally show Justin's reaction to elimination) I strongly believe Justin & Diana come in last but are saved by Tiffany & Krista
Lol this thread is only focusing on Justin/Diana elimination possibilities instead of possible of tasks :lol: :lol:
It's not F4. As confrimed by media. Did you do not look?
(purely speculation)Again, purely spec, butbased on this, maybe Justin & Diana believe they're safe after outrunning Tiffany & Krista, but get a penalty themselves, and therefore are eliminated? How amazing would it be for that too happen! :wohoo:
From the preview cap, we can find that the pit-stop greeter is on the left of phil
So, we can suspect that Kelsey & Joey, Justin & Diana and Tiffany & Krista are 2nd, 3rd and 4th respectively? (Consider that Chris looks happy)
The preview for TAR 25 Leg 2 literally showed the last two teams (Dennis & Isabelle, Shelley & Nici) racing to the Pit Stop, so we can't really use that edit logic you brought up. They've done a good job this season at not spoiling who will be eliminated (mainly because almost every preview has been Green-centric).I think Kelsey's not-very-happy face and Joey's "Wow" suggests Justin & Diana survived? I may be going too far here but ??? Not saying that they'd be jumping up and down :lol: (I probably would)
Based on that and everyone else's faces (and the fact that I don't believe they'd literally show Justin's reaction to elimination) I strongly believe Justin & Diana come in last but are saved by Tiffany & Krista
From what I recall, in earlier seasons, the preview that shows teams struggling are usually safe. And the team that looked safe are usually in danger of being eliminated. Is this edit still in effect?
:waves:, :welcome2: to the R.F.F., Blue Robot!Thank you! I've been reading the forum for a while and finally registered :)
It said Shocking Finish. I listened again.
Justin: "Can't believe we tied the record for most consecutive wins! #TheGreenTeam #AmazingRace #DreamComeTrue"https://twitter.com/JustinClassic1/status/667906760099934208
Tim Gross: @JustinClassic1 congrats on your new Amazing Race record for consecutive wins"https://twitter.com/the_exTIMinator/status/670485059477110784
Justin: "Thank you Tim as a Superfan it's a dream come true still can't believe it"
Tim Gross: "@JustinClassic1 From one superfan to another, I'm happy it was a team of superfans that broke the record"
Could the twist the racers "didn't see coming" be that there are only two teams in the finale this season?
Just speculating

The performance task is in the Dancing Water Theatre, at the City of Dreams Casino in Macau. It's a highwire show called "The House of Dancing Water"
Someone pointed this out on the TAR 27 Wikipedia article, then I did a Google Image search to verify. It's a match.
https://www.google.ca/search?q=the+house+of+dancing+water&biw=1280&bih=663&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi298u2lbTJAhWDWx4KHXidD88Q_AUIBygC#tbm=isch&q=city+of+dreams+casino%2C+dancing+water+theatre
And based on the caps, I really think that it's in order? Kelsey and Joey 1st/2nd, Green Team 2nd/3rd, Girls are 3rd/4th and they are altogether at the pitstop?
Logan and Chris seemed to be shocked by an announcement by Phil. So it's either they arrive 1ST and receive a penalty and then all the rest survives. Or Logan and Chris are last and then there are teams who received penalty and they survived.
I really can't tell much from the caps (good editing for once?? LOL) but didn't we have caps of Tiffany and Krista and Logan and Chris in the finale?
And Justin's reaction seemed more DEVASTATED than HAPPY. If it's something happy like surviving even after a difficult leg, he might have hugged Diana rather than drop down on his knees.
Idk. It's just too hard for me to believe that Green Team goes home so I'm not putting my hopes high, even though the episode title and preview point to or seemed to be suggesting it. Too good to be true lol.
Usually episode titles are chosen from something the racer said that defined the leg, something that viewers can remember the leg for. It would be fitting for the quote to be saying how hard it is to beat green team, but in actual fact they did get eliminated...
My two cents worth.
Yeah, it seems too good to be true, but a lot of people are probably hoping that the Green Team goes home. I don't outright hate the Green Team (or at least, Justin) but they're so dominating that I wouldn't mind seeing them eliminated.

Looks like J/D did get a penalty because of their shot (based on the latest preview) away from the mat at the pitstop and waiting.
^ Just one thing on your speculation paradoxinee, K/J, J/D and T/K were shown on the mat side by side by side, so how did we miss L/C there?
Also, how did Justin broke into tears on mat if they arrived before T/K, and despite finish 3rd? Something counts.
Also look at edit of teams. It determines them. But after Laura & Tyler win, it's very hard to guess.
??? I think Green Team got a penalty, is in danger, T/K checks in, has a penalty too and gets eliminated? -_-I thought this as well.

Justin: *crying during penalty*

Phil: Justin & Diana, would you come over here?
*Justin & Diana walk, crying*
Phil: Tiffany & Krista, you are the last team to arrive. However, I understand you did not aklsdjflkadjlkajdlfkajdf

I really want anyone but Justin & Diana to F3.

Tbh, I'm kind of glad CBS made the preview so "obvious," so we could suck in the fact that they survive and not get our hopes up. Still can't believe the Cheerleaders *PROBABLY* don't make it.
From the preview, the place where Justin holding the detour clue is the intersection between Nam Cheong Street and Yu Chau Street, in the district of Sham Shui Po, Hong Kong.
https://goo.gl/maps/i5h2nCV8TFs (https://goo.gl/maps/i5h2nCV8TFs)
There's no way Justin and Diana are eliminated if the preview is that obvious
Here's another theory: (OMG I SHOULD STOP LOL IM TOO ANXIOUS AND HOPEFUL)
Logan & Chris win the leg.
Kelsey & Joey finish 2nd, with Justin & Diana right on their tails.
Justin gets a penalty. (the crying in the first part of the Preview)
Justin & Diana wait on the side (like in the Preview).
Tiffany & Krista arrives, they think they're last (the crying in the Preview), but then Phil calls Justin over and eliminates them.
edited for rudeness
A RELEVANT question: Could the Water Show task be a form of dancing task? If so, then I think the Tiffany & Krista scene is VERY misleading. I think Krista gets the "I CANT DO THIS" "YES YOU CAN" edit and eventually completes the task. Weren't they seen leaving FOR A MUSEUM in allegedly FIRST PLACE? Unless the Roadblock is last, then I think they have a good lead over everyone else and they just stumble at the Roadblock.
Meanwhile, via the previews, Dustbin and Borana seem so behind. It's too good to be true, but hopefully it means that my earlier theory is true.
Okay so what if the title quote is said by Tiffany & Krista, who arrive last at the mat only to be saved by a penalty received by Justin & Diana provoking one of them to retort "It's not easy beating green" and that their sadness is because they beat them in odd circumstances? Usually when this happens the benefiting team never show elation..
Can someone make screencaps of the additional preview? :) I couldn't view them from the geoblock. (:;)
Thank you in advance! :conf:
Please. It really COULD be, as Tiffy & Krissy kinda like the green team and with a close finish they could react in a similar way to the Krakow leg with Tanner & Josh's elimination.Okay so what if the title quote is said by Tiffany & Krista, who arrive last at the mat only to be saved by a penalty received by Justin & Diana provoking one of them to retort "It's not easy beating green" and that their sadness is because they beat them in odd circumstances?

I hope it's true
If you plan on being rude and obnoxious..... just DON'T.OMG Peach are you sending Justin a message :hearts:
Please, TAR editors, make a change for once. :(There's no way Justin and Diana are eliminated if the preview is that obvious
Yup. :whoop:

This is what I'm talking about in my previous post.

It seems that Justin is standing at the back and not in line with T/K, seemed to have checked in already? /speculation
I think the speculation that J/D got a penalty, and it runs out before T/K might be true?
*PRAYING*
Maybe T/K are sad/crying because they think they are out... even if they see J/D in the background waiting they are not sure what is going on..I don't think the reporters and the cheerleaders are at the mat at the same time.. because in the cheerleaders pics at the mat, justin is closer to the girls (and behind) and in the pictures with the reporters, justin is to diana's right!
So in my mind 3 scenarios possible:
1) Footrace between K/J and J/D, greenteam gets a penalty, Joey says wow, justin is crying on the ground, then L/C arrives, hence the WTF and OMG face, they are team #2, and then the girl arrives, and we see justin and Diana walking to the mat after the girl, and they are eliminated
2) Same thing happen as #1, but the girls also have a penalty, hence why the sad and crying face and are eliminated
3) Chris and Logan arrives before everyone else! and then the two scenarios play again!
I think its fair to say it's green team or cheerleaders going home!
I think that Kelsey & Joey are 1st, Justin & Diana 2nd, but get penalty, then Tiffany & Krista arrive and look sad because they think that they are last but they're 2nd. While Justin & Diana were seen waiting for penalty in preview, It could also mean that Logan & Chris checked in 3rd and happy that they beat Justin & Diana, thus eliminating Justin & Diana in 4th. So the title quote is said by maybe Chris.

No, because when Tiffany & Krista check-in, J/D was there on the mat. When J/D get penalty, they will immediately leave the mat and penalty time starts. No way they will stay there to wait for Tiffany & Krista receiving their result.
What if...
Phil says that the penalty is over. Tiffany & Krista arrive. Justin starts running.
Tiffany & Krista edge out Justin running to the mat and beat them that way :P :P :P
Again, I mean that Justin & Diana & Kelsey & Joey & Tiffany & Krista had a footrace, but T/K maybe had running difficultes, thus H/J and J/D arrive immediately, and T/K shortly after, before Phil is announcing that Justin & Diana had a penalty. But this is just a possibility.

Denise
lol bye season 27rip in piece
It's nonsense. That comment only suggests that Justin thought Denise and James would be a threat in final leg if they made it.
Imagine if the quote is said by Justin again after they survive the leg :groan:

No, again because Joey & Kelsey and J/D are seen to be on the mat together, too.
The most possible case in my opinion should be:
1. Joey & Keylsey and J/D check-in almost at the same time. J/D get penalty. J/K in first place.
2. L/C check-in in third place. J/D still wait. L/C became second place --> Happy face.
3. T/K arrive in forth place. Now there is some more posibility:
a. J/D penalty is over right before T/K arrive. T/K are eliminated.
b. J/D penalty is not over but T/K also receive penalty. T/K are eliminated.
c. J/D penalty is not over. T/K arrive before the time is done. They get no penalty. J/D are eliminated.
Justin was crying while waiting for Diana at the Roadblock. I doubt he'd be crying if they were that close to 1st. My guess is they come in 3rd, get a penalty, stay in 3rd.No, again because Joey & Kelsey and J/D are seen to be on the mat together, too.

This looks good to me. Nice job!
Justin was crying while waiting for Diana at the Roadblock. I doubt he'd be crying if they were that close to 1st. My guess is they come in 3rd, get a penalty, stay in 3rd.No, again because Joey & Kelsey and J/D are seen to be on the mat together, too.
The most possible case in my opinion should be:
1. Joey & Keylsey and J/D check-in almost at the same time. J/D get penalty. J/K in first place.
2. L/C check-in in third place. J/D still wait. L/C became second place --> Happy face.
3. T/K arrive in forth place. Now there is some more posibility:
a. J/D penalty is over right before T/K arrive. T/K are eliminated.
b. J/D penalty is not over but T/K also receive penalty. T/K are eliminated.
c. J/D penalty is not over. T/K arrive before the time is done. They get no penalty. J/D are eliminated.
This looks good to me. Nice job!
Somewhat unrelated, but have we had a pre-episode thread have 7 pages? :funny:

Like somehow they are at RB in the first place but Diana has struggled for a long time and all other teams start to show up and Kelsey and Joey beat them...

J/D are shown in a cab where Justin is already upset or worried about something, which I think is before the RB since Diana is not wearing make-up, so I doubt that Justin's source of frustration is Diana's roadblock.
"The video is not available." :dick
Based on the preview, I think I know what the Roadblock is.
They have to perform in the show, then swim underwater and look for a clue among the fish.
The question is: Why would T/K and J/D cry or potentially struggle if it were that easy?
My hypothesis is that the task is timed lmao. Everyone only has limited time.
The editing of the sneak peek and the fact that all three teams are together REALLY implies that the RB is before the Detour IMO.
A lot can still happen, but I'm hoping for the best *sighs*
The water RB looks really cool!

It is really possible that the RB is timed. And one more thing, I think the RB performer have no idea what they are looking for after they jumped into the pool. We can see hanging fishes with (possibly) a clue under the pool but it seems like no one notice it yet. I think it will all come down to who notice the fish and reach it first.
I still think RB is the last task before pit stop, IMO. So I think it will go: detour in HK - turbojet to Macau - RB in Macau and Pit Stop.
Here's hoping for the best outcome too :(

I agree with that, since when teams checked-in at Pit Stop, the Roadblock performers still wore the make up.
Anyway, on the screencaps, we didn't see Justin together with the other three. IF they left Roadblock first, why Justin looked so desperate on the Pit Stop then? It's just my speculation that on that time, either J&D were last on that time and hadn't arrived yet or actually he's there but nobody wanted to sit next to him. :lol:
^ I thought they are friends with Kelsey and Joey?

I think you're right. Joey said something like he guess that the girls have to dive down and find something.
Timed RB is highly possible, too because this is a show. They have only an amount of time to find the clue before the show ends and they have to restart the show from the beginning.
I am wondering why does most of the team (mainly J/D, L/C, J/K) send their girl members (Kelsey, Diana, Logan) to perform the roadblock? If this is some sort of search and retrieve roadblock task in the water? shouldn't male be the best team member to perform? This came into my mind because I think male are strong enough and more stamina to perform this.

Well Logan has to do it, she's the only team member left with 4 Roadblocks and no balance (her yelling at Chris in Poland is now 100% deserved if she messes up considering she was begging to do that one :lol:).
For the others, IDK, maybe it's because the clue seems like a dancing task? *shrugs*

I noticed that in twitter Tiffany & Krista looks so excited about the race. I see that they thanked everyone that are fan of them which roots for them.

Are you sure?
As I remember, Logan did RB in Argentina 1, Zambia, France, Netherlands and India 2.
:yess:I noticed that in twitter Tiffany & Krista looks so excited about the race. I see that they thanked everyone that are fan of them which roots for them.
what does that mean? :umn:
I speculate that K/J wins that leg, J/D arrives second with a penalty, T/K arrives third with a penalty,This is yet another plausible theory, which proves how anything could happen this leg.
L/C arrive fourth and find they are second, Making J/D third, & T/K eliminated.
If J/D are eliminated this leg, is it the first time final 3 including teams not winning any leg?One team of the final 3 will at least win one leg (leg11)

I think Justin is sitting on where Tiffany is, so maybe they are indeed in last place. You won't worry that much if you know you're in first and we know how Justin behaves when they know they're in front.
*sighs* Tiffany is next to him =/
So Chris and Logan switch Detour but still get to RB the same time as K/J, T/K and before J/D :o

I'm assuming they all (except J/D) got on the same flight (or whatever means of transportation they will be using), that's why they all get there at the same time and that's why Justin/Diana are so worried on the taxi
I am just wondering if, despite his teary face, J/D might be at the roadblock with T/K FIRST. Maybe Justin is just super emotional about trying to get into the finals, and got stressed out while the others were all doing the other detour, leaving him to freak out about not knowing where they stood.
So, J/D finish the roadblock first, but T/K have problems, thus T/K are still there when K/J and C/L arrive.
J/D do appear to be waiting out a penalty at the pit stop, so I am considering that maybe C/L arrive second, but win the leg (that would explain his expression), then K/J arrive third, finishing second. J/D finish out penalty, and are being checked in when T/K arrive last?
Just a theory, trying to see what else is possible.
At least it's safe to say Justin & Diana didn't win the leg? :umn:
Because RB is right before the Pitstop and J/D somehow are in the mat together with K/J, I think Logan & Chris win the leg. Kelsey & Joey 2nd again (even not losing to J/D lol).
Is this the longest episode thread before the episode airs? :lol:
Is this the longest episode thread before the episode airs? :lol:
IIRC, 26 Finale had like 16-17 full pages of intense discussion whether Hayley & Blair will win or not before the episode air. :lol:

THIS SOUNDS LIKE YOU KNOW WHO OMG IM DONE BYE
LOGAN & CHRIS SEEN AT BOTH DETOURS :O
"It's Not Easy Beating Green"--In Detour A, Chris (left) and Logan (right) must choose a fabric sample and a set of measurements for a tailored jacket. Once they cut all of the pieces correctly, they will receive the next clue, on THE AMAZING RACE, Friday, Dec 4 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.
"It's Not Easy Beating Green"--In Detour B, Chris (left) and Logan (right) must find a working cell phone in a bin in at the Apliu Street Flea Market in Hong Kong then call the number programed into the phone. They will then learn the location of the next clue, on THE AMAZING RACE, Friday, Dec 4 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.
Roadblock also confirmed before Pit Stop.
"It's Not Easy Beating Green"--In this Road Block, Krista (pictured) perform in a state of the art water production at the House of Dancing Water in Macau, China on THE AMAZING RACE, Friday, Dec 4 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.
"It's Not Easy Beating Green"--After completing the Road Block, Kelsey (left) and Joey (right) make their way to the Pit Stop at Nam Van Lake Peir in Macau, China on THE AMAZING RACE, Friday, Dec 4 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

You're all making a ridiculous mistake. If Tiffany & Krista were really sent home, why would they be spotted at an airport looking for an art gallery? None of the leg 11 tasks match that location.

Wow, I must be blind, so please forgive me. Art gallery was in Hong Kong. But either way, there's this: Someone saw Justin & Diana with cheerleaders right before the Macau bit. What...were T&K doing that caused them to lose so much time?

Noone saw J/D. Green team with two girls = T/K because they wear green, too.

Yeah, but the wording is a giveaway. We already knew about team names from day 1, and Green Team with 2 girls...
I meant Logan and Chris not the trauma triggering teamDave & Rachel bickered to victory 👀
they didnt get NSPV from other teams tho. justin and diana have had lots of that, and i dont think thats an edit of a winner.

Doesn't seem likely now due to all the speculation, but we have zero confirmation of the Reporters in the finale, so we'll never know if Kelsey & Joey were the ones who got the boot in HK+Macau Leg. After all, "surprising finish" can mean them too. :stare

Better them than the Cheerleaders.
I mean, better that the Reporters go out than the Cheerleaders.
Some thoughts:4. I don't think so. L/C is at the RB the same time as K/J, T/K with no sight of J/D. Justin was seen to sit near T/K in other shot at the RB. So if L/C reach RB in last, J/D finish RB first. This is unlikely to happen.
1. Don't rule out the possibility (even though it's very unlikely) that Kelsey & Joey go out. (0,0000001%)
2. Justin & Diana can also be crying because they left the boat and saw all other teams on the mat. (even though they are standing on their feet and not moving)
3. Joey's face isn't good as well. Might be because they are on the cab and not winning first place (again).
4. I believe Logan & Chris will reach the Roadblock in last and finish it first (?)
HI!
So... Chris and Logan changed detours or what?
another nice possibility is that J/D was eliminated and some "mimicking" them. :trampb:I love the neverending optimism on this thread :lol
At this rate the only thing I might want to see tomorrow is (if it happens) Logan going off on Justin if they see them at the airport because of the U-Turn :lol:Yas please <3
That's not a confirmation of elimination, he's just saying "here's your chance to meet us before the season is over"

Yeah, it doesn't automatically mean that Justin & Diana get eliminated tonight. Still, I'm hoping that they are -- mainly so that people can stop complaining about them on here! :)
