I heard something like that too... and then you have all those shocked faces by the racers (Mallory, Vyxsin) as Phil was announcing it.

The last team to complete a challenge will receive a penalty. Before that Phil was saying something about "second flight".. that's all i caught after repeating many times.

And i heard something about an "automatic U-TURN"?? Then they zoomed out to Vyxsin's shocked look! I *think* the penalty is U-TURN??

Did somebody else hear about the U-TURN in the video too?


I heard, "The last team to complete this challenge will receive a penalty that could have a devastating effect on (their standing?) in the race. (The penalty for this?) challenge will receive an automatic U-Turn." (but that last sentence isn't gramatically correct, so the parenthesis are probably not entirely accurate.)

An automatic U-Turn doesn't make sense unless the sailing "active route marker" is in fact a Detour. We have pretty clear indication from the promos that the oceanworld task is a Roadblock.

Are there any other tasks that would be possible as a Detour option?

Coutzy, Phil didn't say this leg.. at least what we heard he didn't say anything like that. Maybe it could be an "automatic U-TURN" on any leg that a U-TURN will appear?

That's the link we are already discussing loverocked...but does your copy have closed captioning that includes what Phil is saying? aIf so, can you share it please?

I am hearing

Quote
"THE OTHER TEAMS WILL BE ON THE SECOND FLIGHT"
(shocked looks) and then:

I'll see if I can separate that out...anyone know how to separate audio tracks?? ??? :lol:

But there is something else...the LAST team to complete this challenge was receive a penalty that could have a devastating effect on the rest of the race. That team will receive a somethingsomething U-TURN.

Giving the last team an automatic U-Turn on a future leg makes even less sense. You are basically banking on the team that finished the plane task last to come back and make it through the first leg. Granted that its easily possible for a team to be last to the airport to not come last for the leg, but still, it seems odd that they would give a penalty from the first task to appear on a different leg.

Its the only answer I can think of. Unless the last place team loses their ability to use the U-Turn maybe?  :duno:

If the U-TURN appears on the second episode, but it's actually still the first leg because of the TBC.. then it would made much more sense?

I am certain about the last three words by lip-reading: Automatic U-Turn.

Is there anybody around that knows sign language so we might get a hint by what Margie is relaying to Luke?

I know signs language and I'm deaf..
It's like sign "P", or "30"? or I think "30 penalty" ? It's hard see it. I hope so.. If suppose I am right or wrong.

An automatic U-Turn? So they had to do both detour (kangaroo and sailing task -- am I right?--) on Australia leg? :duno:

The sailing task was in Sydney, the Kangaroos were in Broken Hill.

If the penalty is enforced before they leave America then it may not matter because of the situation with the delayed flight in Hawaii.

A penalty enforced before they leave America wouldn't matter anyway because there are only 2 flights teams were on and the last team would be sharing a flight with at least 2 other teams anyway.
