Episode 7 of TARA 3 -Spoilers and Speculations

Like previous season, Adrian and Collin have their own commercial other than Vanessa and Rovilson who placed second and third.. In conclusion,, Vince and Sam won this race.. Good for them.. I hope I am wrong because I want Team Philippines to win.. But, it's alright..

Do you remember AXN changed their picture?
I wonder if it has anything to do with their winning.

I also observed that when you posted the map. Why do they walk that far to the ferry terminal if they can take taxi? Or were they instructed to "travel by foot" to equalize all the teams so that Ida and Tania will not be obviously eliminated?

Thanks Banzai for the summary.

This interview of Henry and Bernie from http://star-ecentral.com/news/story.asp?file=/2008/9/2/tvnradio/1900957&sec=tvnradio

Are they referring now to this leg?

“We were always in our own zone and we were open to everything. I have no regrets about what we did or said throughout the race,” says Henry, refusing to divulge any more.

“And we were good sportsmen and we did not ride on anyone’s wave,” says Bernie, adding that they made “friends for life” with “some” of the teams.

Does this spell conflict among some teams then?

“Well, let’s just say we saw some people for what they really are. Thankfully, there was never a situation where we had to rely on another team. We always had a choice ... whether or not we wanted to work with another team,” says Bernie candidly.

With only five teams remaining in The Amazing Race Asia, it was about time we had a non-elimination round. But even though this has been one tough race, it was great to see how much Tania and Ida showed how much they still wanted to stay in the race at the pit stop. When you've made it this far, you might as well go as far as you can go. And believe me...there's still quite a ways too!

I wonder if this is a clue. Hmm.
a ways = away??
a ways = two ways??
still = still in the race??
there's still = there's still a way to catch up???
a ways = Fast Forward for Ida & Tania?
Hmm.

Hmm, it makes sense Banzai.

Uh, what do we believe?

This week we return to being tough on the Teams and I'm afraid that's how it will stay until the end of the season. No more Mr. Nice Guy

As you may have gathered from the promo Mother Nature will play a hand in this week's Leg of the Race and there is some genuine nastiness between at least a couple of the Teams. It's not all drama though with a very funny scene centering around a blackjack table. Enjoy.

From Mckay:

I guess Jon is right about the bungy in Macau Tower. Operations have to be canceled or closed because of the thunderstorm and some teams are affected.

Geoff and Tisha are now safe since we see them doing the lion dance when it rained. We gonna hit the jackpot again with our speculations and spoilers this leg. I guess so.

There's no more Fast Forward!!!

If Leg 7 would be a NEL and there's 1 TBC, then there's no more NEL after Leg 7.

Episode 7 - NEL (5 teams)
Episiode 8 - Part1 TBC
Episode 9 - Part 2 - EL (4 teams)
Episode 10 - EL (3 teams)
Epsiode 11 - Finale (Winners)

TARA 1
Finale - Final
Top 4 - EL
Top 4 - Nel

TARA 2
Finale - Final
Top 4 - EL
Top 4 - Nel

Tara 3?

Good point Eragon and nazrin for those observations. Feel free to rebutt everybody. LOL

Guys, I used all your pictures and opinions and Banzai's video in my blog.

Thanks.

This can be the other scenario also:

Episode 7 - EL (4 teams)
Episiode 8 - Part1 TBC
Episode 9 - Part 2 - NEL (4 teams)
Episode 10 - EL (3 teams)
Epsiode 11 - Finale (Winners)

Leg 7 could not be TBC because according to aravind, he overheard tisha saying 2 hour lead.. So it means that, tisha knew what is the time "simon" arrive in the pitstop in macau. Moreover, if this leg is TBC, her team have no time to chat with the other teams because the race must go on and she will have no idea who are behind or infront of them. So, she cannot said "2 hours lead to Simon"..

I've found a mistake of JonLover's Blog

Anthonyctf also told us that the first footage seen in the preview where Sam and Vince are running like cheetahs is shot in Hong Kong and not yet in Macau. With these informations, Banzai discovered that the building at the background is Kam Sang Apartment along Des Voeux Road Central Hong Kong which is very near to Tsim Sha Tsui Ferry Terminal. This means they are going to take a ferry to Macau.

The Des Voeux Road is near the Shang Wan Ferry Terminal...Not Tsim Sha Tsui
They took a hydrofoil not a ferry to Macau
(Just like TAR11)

Thank you Anthony for the correction. But why in the map of Banzai, it is showing there the Ferry Terminal? Are the Ferry Terminal and Hydrofoil Terminal next to each other along Des Voeux Road?

Good point there julsrum13. Excellent. Hope to see you more ofen here Julsrum.

So, our option is down to two. It's is either NEL or EL for Macau Leg.

But I kinda don't agree with your distribution of the other EL, TBC and NEL. Though it is possible, I think it is unlikely for the producer to make the second part of a TBC a NEL. This is actually my other option I have posted before in the Main Gallery of Spoilers:

Episode 7 - EL ** 4 teams left
Episode 8 - TBC **4 teams left
Episode 9 - EL **3 teams left
Episode 10- NEL**3 teams left
Episode 11- FINALE

A NEL before the finale is possible since we have seen this many times in TAR 3, 5 and 7.

The Ferry Terminal is in Kowloon
and Hydrofoil Terminal is in HK Island
Des Voeux Road is in HK Island too
They are not near (Ferry & Hydrofoil)
The terminal is called ferry but the office is use the hydrofoil to Macau
Trust Me ... I don't know how to describe it clearly but I 100% sure that they take a hydrofoil

Hi Anthony. I do believe you. You know it better since you're from Hong Kong. I will correct that in my blog later. Thanks

Part 2 of my speculations is up in my blog. Please comment here so that I can make some corrections if possible.

Thanks

I go with you that we are going to see an elimination leg. I also have to agree about your team standing in the pitstop.

1st- Geoff/Tisha
2nd-Sam/Vince
3rd-Henry/Bernie
4th-AD/Fuzzie
5th-Ida/Tania

Epi 7-EL
Epi 8-TBC
Epi 9-EL
Epi 10-NEL
Epi 11 - Finale

I agree with you Jonlover regarding to your distribution of the EL, TBC and NEL.. You are right. The producers can't put NEL after TBC.. I apologized for that..

I could remember in TAR All stars, there's a yield in Macau Tower. Danny and Oswald yielded Eric and Danielle..

http://www.alivenotdead.com/allanwu

But even though this has been one tough race, it was great to see how much Tania and Ida showed how much they still wanted to stay in the race at the pit stop. When you've made it this far, you might as well go as far as you can go. And believe me...there's still quite a ways too!

So it means "they're still quite FAR AWAY from catching up too". Hmm.

Banzai, what I understand from the blog, Ida and Tania is safe. But in your comment, they are not. Am I right?

Avalanche, yes, Banzai thinks otherwise. Am I right too?

Julsrum13, you don't need to say sorry dude. You might be right re: a NEL after a TBC. Though it never happened in any TARA or TARA or TAR Brazil, you might see this for the first time in this season. who knows?

Yeah, Allan Wu's hint is confusing. It's either Ida & Tania are safe or not.

The helmet and the suit match right? I know we all know thes activities in Macau Tower.
