There were 3 non elimination pit stops.... and all three have been used... how much you wanna bet we see Phil greeting the Guido's when they reach the Alaskan Pit stop?

Well, that would explain why there are no preview clips of the Guidos in New York. But I thought someone last night said something about their goal was to make the final three so they could see the finish line. That made me think that the teams knew that the final three teams would make the end and there were no more eliminations.

If they are eliminated, not sure if Phil would be there. They are 24 hours behind, I would think Phil would be waiting in New York for the winners instead.

We had the non-elims. From now on it is a race for 3 teams to the finish. But unless the 2 leaders screw up, the Guidos are so far behind, it probably won't matter.

Yes, but they still need to fly to NY! The airport, the great equalizer! Damn it!!! Last night in the previews I'm pretty sure I saw the Guidos in NY. I'll look again.

Yep, I hope they get closer together... having one team so far behind made the show really unbalanced last night. I think it would be a much better ending if there was some real competition between all three.

They all cross the finnish line so we will definately see the Guidos in NY.

My concern is that Frank and Margarita are from NY and obviously very familiar with transportation and locations. Since they are neck and neck with the lawyers it is not looking good for Rob and Brennan. I want them to win.

I am hanging on to the fact that Frank and Margarita have been heard twice saying they will win. I am thinking they would not show this if they did. Am I grasping at straws?

I don't think so Fruitbat, we also saw the lawyers saying something like "We can't beat Frank & Margarita in New York where they are from" which leads me to believe that they do just that.

That's what I was thinking too, Allaboutme. I didn't like it when the previews said that "F/M were worried about R/B and R/B were worried about F/M, but should they all be worried about the Guido's?". I tell you, if the Guidos turn out to win this thing, I will definitely question the show and start believing the theories that it is rigged for them to win! I just don't see how they can do it.

Jewels, I'm hoping that it is the producers weak (VERY WEAK) attempt to mislead us and make us think that the Guidos pull a magic rabbit out of their stetsons and provide us with a shocking ending...

I can't buy it.
I won't buy it.
I absatively, posalutely refuse to buy it.!!!!

There is very little chance the Guidos can catch up seeing as how they took the exact same flights to get from Beijing to Anchorage, only they did them 24 hours later. Their only hope is that the remaining tasks in Alaska (seems to be dogsledding and diving into an ice hole) are only offerred every other day. Not likely. The detour for the next leg would seem to be dogsledding or something else, probably driving their SUVs somewhere much further away. The roadblock seems to be "choose one to dive in an icehole". The clue seems to be at the bottom of the icehole, the previews show a bare chested Frank flinging water off while Margarita reads a clue, Frank is excited because it tells them to get to the finish line in New York.

In the preview, they said something about not ruling out the Guidos because they had to say something about them, and this was as generic as they could get. Of course about the team far behind they would say something "don't forget about them".

Since the previews would have us believe Frank and Margarita are "unbeatable" on their home turf, I would like to think the Rob and Brennan do just that. Every single preview has been misleading, and this would be the ultimate one!

I think we have it. Lawyers first and Guidos last. Has to be. Cool.

I'm still worried about the airport...if R/B and F/M can't catch an early flight it gives the Guidos a chance to catch up...but I hope not. I think your right about the gerneric comment. They needed to make it SEEM like the Guidos are still in the game. I hope.

I will enjoy the final episode a lot more if I KNOW the Guidos have NO hope of catching up. And I always root for the underdog except when they're b*tches.

Yes, I thought it was funny the Guidos made that underdog statement, they clearly didn't foresee how they'd be portrayed up until that point!

My sister came up with a good point the other day. It's possible that bad weather in Alaska could screw up enough flights to let the Guidos catch up.

Likely, no. But possible.

Badgercubs please tell your sister that my psyche is very fragile at this point and we cannot possibly entertain any kind of scenario that would allow the gruesome twosome to catch up.

Flights shouldn't be a problem. There's a lot of flights going out of Alaska to NYC (with connections). And from the previews, it looks like R/B and F/M got on the same one. If there was a weather-related delay, I would think that would've been mentioned...just to heighten the drama of having three teams right on top of each other.

And I watched the previews on slow-mo (otherwise it goes by so quickly that I have no idea what's going on! :)), and there's definitely no Guidos in NYC. And again - if they made it there as part of the race, I'm sure they would've shown that, just to make it more exciting. So my guess is that they're told that the race has been won before they arrive in NY. En route, maybe.

Something I *did* notice about the previews, however, is that it shows F/M smiling in a cab in NYC. That surprised me, because it seems like Frank would be pretty stressed at that point. You know, like the Frats and Team Guido were in the cab race to avoid elimination. Hmm...

And I agree that the editing suggests that F/M win because they have the hometown advantage. In the past, editing like that usually meant the opposite would happen. Of course they might very well make an exception this time, just to throw us off.

I don't think that the Guidos catch up. If there was a chance that they were in the running, certainly the promos would reflect that. That would be very big news. It would not be to their advantage to keep that a secret.
