CBS website clues-


Quote:

Next Week on THE AMAZING RACE:

After a bitter disappointment, Jon makes harsh, unexpected and potentially damaging remarks toward Kelly, who becomes irate at the sudden hostility.

Massive exhaustion finds Millie & Chuck lost in the confusing wilderness of Malaysia, which will put their relationship to a critical test.

Each unaware the other is going after the same prize, two Teams drive many miles out of the way to go for the Fast Forward. Only one will succeed, while the other faces the prospect of clawing their way back into the Race.

Trailing Teams engage in a desperate, heart-pounding race that stretches all the way to the elimination, where only seconds will separate them.




Lots of inofo this week!

Vidcaps from preview-

1
Kelly & Jon walking down dirt road

2
Tall towers (looks almost like sailboat masts)

3
Al scaling one of the towers

4
Kelly and Jon in the woods (maybe a rainforest?)

5
Jon driving on the right hand side

Not much except after watching the previews of Kelly & Jon and reading the clues about someone losing out on the FF, I think the losing team is Kelly & Jon.

It also states straight out that there will be an elimination this week.

Sounds to me like there are only seconds between the two last teams.........and my money goes on Kelly/Jon and Millie/Chuck being those two last teams. Toss Up to which one gets eliminated.

A team beat another team to the FF. The team beat appears to be Kelly/Jon. So, who is the team that did take the FF. Can't be Jon/Al since we see at least one of them on the tower scene. So between Reichen/Chip and David/Jeff, I think it is Reichen/Chip. No reason, just a gut feel.

Seamonkey, your chart sure makes it look like the chances of ending up placed the same as the week before is pretty common. Thanks for that info.

Clp.........great pics and information, as usual!

Yeah :) I decided to share that with the other hard-core spoilers..

And to add the teensy tidbit.. just watched the fading moments of the Early Show and they did list for next week, "the lastest team eliminated from The Amazing Race".

Great spoiling this morning!! I'm in awe. But not speechless; never speechless.

We're Not at Charm School Learning to How to Be a Gentleman, We're Racing"

The title,kinda leads me to think Reichen/Chip would say this while trying to get the FF.

Here's the Press Release...Clears it up a little more:

A TEAM FINDS THEMSELVES AT EXTREME ODDS WITH ONE ANOTHER AS THEY STRUGGLE TO GET TO THE PIT STOP,
ON "THE AMAZING RACE 4," THURSDAY, JULY 24

"We’re Not At Charm School Learning How To Be A Gentleman, We’re Racing" – One team member loses his temper with his partner, on THE AMAZING RACE 4, Thursday, July 24 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Phil Keoghan is the host of the series.

After a bitter disappointment leaves them in last place, one teammate makes very harsh, unexpected – and potentially damaging – remarks toward his partner, who becomes irate at the sudden hostility. Also, a desperate and heart-pounding race ensues between last-placed teams that stretch all the way to the elimination, where only seconds will separate them. Meanwhile, massive exhaustion and bitter infighting find one team lost in the confusing wilderness of Malaysia, which will put their relationship to a critical test.

On another board it was mentioned that David and Jeff are not seen racing in the cars to the finish line. This has some people thinking they got the FF.

I saw Al/Jon in the pictures above. And I saw Millie/Chuck and Kelly/Jon on the preview at the CBS website. I have yet to see Reichen/Chip. Can somebody verify that they were also seem racing in the cars to the finish line.???

Seems to me that Kelly and Jon lose the fast forward, which puts them in last place. But I would be a little surprised if they end up eliminated. The press release strongly suggests they get eliminated, which leads me to believe they will not. Here's hoping we see the last of Millie and Chuck.

Alaginger

Tuesday, July 22, 2003 - 03:36 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Frankly, I don't trust the video shots this week.....and feel Al/Jon and Jeff/David are safe......but I wouldn't be surprised if Reichen/Chip might be one of the teams tailing.....even though the previews seem to taunt us with Kelly/Jon or Millie/Chuck. I'm still waiting to see if anybody has seen Reichen/Chip in a car racing for finish....or anywhere for that matter.

Here are the vidcaps for the CBS website preview. There were NO shots of Chip and Reichen doing tasks, only one of Reichen in a cab. There are shots of Jeff & David and Jon & Al doing the roadblock, as well as shots of Jon and Chuck entering the roadblock together. I think Chip & Reichen get the FF and Millie & Chuck and Kelly & Jon are racing for elimination.

These next three shots show some kind of footrace. I can make out Millie, Chuck, David, Reichen, Al, and maybe Chip or David. No Kelly & Jon.

YESSSSSSSS

This is what I have been waiting for. Thanks Clp! Millie/Chuck can't go for FF anymore. It sure looks like Al/Jon, David/Jeff, and Kelly/Jon are tied up one way or another in challenges (detour or roadblock)..........so that makes me think, as you said, that it is Reichen/Chip that beat Kelly/Jon to the FF.

GREAT JOB!!! Just hope we are reading it right?

The shot of David and Jeff doing the high five is taken from two pitstops ago in India, when they just barely beat out Chip and Reichen for first (and wore those matching Hanes v-neck undershirts).

didn't the Goats (David & Jeff) get 1st twice in a row - I thought they showed up at the gateway of India, and again at the next pitstop???

Quote:

Next Week on THE AMAZING RACE:

(1)Reichen & Chip hope a prior experience will help when they have to eat live baby octopi, who attach themselves to their mouths, refusing to be swallowed.

(2)Two Teams get lost, and inadvertently drive toward the North Korean border, amongst columns of tanks, machine gun nests and assorted heavy armor.

(3)Team members must strip and swim through a corridor of ice water under a frozen lake. Once finished, they can't continue on the Race until their body temperatures have returned to normal levels.

(4)With Millie & Chuck out, Kelly & Jon find themselves the only co-ed Team. Can Kelly prove that a woman has what it takes to win the Race, or will man-power win out?




(1)Saw this in preview

(2) Led to believe by the preview that this is Jon & Al and Jeff & David, but it sounds like Jon's voice at the end shouting, "This can't be right!"

(3)Saw Al doing this in the preview and the clue says "Team Members", Detour maybe?

(4) Even though I am a woman, I am seriously rooting for man power.

Will be back with preview vidcaps later!

Alaginger

Friday, July 25, 2003 - 04:15 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Well, if I had to do any speculating on just this little bit of information that we have.......my guesses would be:

(1) Eating octopi is one of the detour choices since we see both Reichen and Chip doing it, and that team has already used the FF.

(2) Except for where they line up at the Pit Stop at the end of the show, I don't see that getting lost will hurt any team this week since it is more than likely a non-elimination week. However, getting lost and starting to trail could make one team go for the FF to catch up if given the chance.

(3) I think the icy water thing is a Roadblock since "Team Members" could also refer to one each of each team remaining. If so, that tells me that Al/Jon do not take the FF because they are participating. Kelly/Jon and Reichen/Chip cannot take the FF........so if it gets taken at all, it will be by David/Jeff.

(4) I can't even think of anything to say about the female (Kelly) disadvantage inference, except it all depends on what the challenges are. If it requires lifting heavy objects, then Kelly is definitely at a disadvantage.....(Not to mention that the Kelly/Jon team make their own disadvantages for themselves most of the time with their attitudes!)

Kelly is pretty skinny so she might take longer to recover her body temperature..

But I wonder if K/J will be determined to get the FF this time since it was denied to them last time? Hard to say.

Not1worry

Friday, July 25, 2003 - 06:57 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Alaginger, why do you say in (3) that Kelly/Jon cannot take the FF? I didn't see them doing the ice water in the preview, but I didn't look too carefully either.

Alaginger

Friday, July 25, 2003 - 08:59 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Oh My Heck.....you are so right Not1worry....Kelly/Jon have not used the FF yet because they got thwarted last time....my mistake (good catch).
So, FF cannot be Reichen/Chip because they have already used it. Cannot be Al/Jon because we see Al doing the ice-swim thing. So it can only be David/Jeff or Kelly/Jon that use the FF. Now I'm thinking it could very easily be Kelly/Jon since they will be starting so far behind the other contestants....plus if David/Jeff are lost with Al/Jon, they will probably be doing the challenge of the ice swim thing about the same time Al/Jon are doing it.

Thanks for calling that to my attention. I'm hoping we get some video shots soon, and more detailed ones on Monday or Tuesday after the commercials start showing up on T.V.

This is for Episode 11.....so don't get it confused with next week's Episode 10 show...it's just to give us some pre-warning of things to come.

From TV Guide:
"Such a Nice Pheremone Smell to You; Just Makes Me Want to Stay Close to You"
Teams attempt to descend face first down the side of a skyscraper. Later, they are required to retrieve a clue from a tank filled with sharks. Phil Keoghan is the host.

Friday, July 25, 2003 - 09:12 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
This is also Episode 11...so keep that in mind.

"RE: Episode 11"
Teams arrive at the penthouse of a hotel skyscraper, only to discover that they must descend down the side of the building from the balcony......face first.
Meanwhile, a harrowing roadblock requires teammates to stay calm in order to retrieve a clue from a tank filled with huge sharks.

Also, one team attacks another personally in order ro make them lose their cool.
