I have to say that I knew that Tammy and Victor, and Margie and Luke were going to be in the finale. I didn't expect either the cheerleaders or Kisha & Jen to make it this far. Luke is pretty smart, his loss of hearing has forced him and his mom to think outside of the box their entire lives so they are used to this kind of rat race. THE CHINESE CONNECTION I think the fact that Tammy and Victor speak Chinese is a huge huge advantage. This season the race has spent an unusually long time in one country that is native to two of the contestants. WENT WEE WEE ALL THE WAY HOME When Kisha and Jen got U-turned last night I knew they were toast but they actually completed the other task and had a good chance of winning. The food challenge did them in: One she took too long eating and two, she went to the bathroom. For a one in three chance at a million dollars, I will pee on myself on national TV any day of the week. If I’m wearing a Komono you wouldn’t even know it. It would be like peeing in a swimming pool! Talk some smack! -Cosmo ********************************************** From Tarbloob: I think the only mistake Tammy and Victor made in my opinion was a tactical one in using the U-Turn against Kisha & Jen. Though I grant the sibs couldn't beat Kisha & Jen in a rundown footrace to the mat, the sisters had not raced close enough most previous legs to even threaten Tammy & Victor with such an eventuality. Statistically, the obvious threat was Margie & Luke. Had the mother & son been hit with a U-Turn, the extra spoken word Detour might have proved an insurmountable obstacle. Instead, the mother & son were left alone to do the alternate Chinese Opera task instead with the pair putting operatic makeup on each other's faces. After Margie completed the later food eating Roadblock, the mother and son would score a second place finish and their passage to "The Amazing Race 14" finale.
