there is a huge difference. It depends on the flight times. So they may or may not bunch up if 13 hours behind(most likely wont), but with 3 hours, they most probably will unless they are so unlucky that the flight time is just like 2 hours after the 2nd last team departs.

Well I believe when the first teams arrived, we saw shots of the roses on the first floor right by the door.
Could be that the other teams just missed the obvious ones on the first floor.

I do not believe they would aid a team

But what about Romber's SECRET CLUES (zomg!) that Gretchen kept complaining about?

All 3 teams struggled w/the Roadblock, when TK/Rachel arrived there was less traffic to manuever around.

I, for one, have faith in the production staff. I do not believe they would aid a team.

If that were the case, Kynt and Vyxsin would still be in it.

Thanks for the info.

So, landing 3 hours and 45 minutes behind the other Teams, there must be some conspiracy that helped them shave 45 minutes off the Leg. Clearly, since the other 3 Teams all arrived at the Pit Stop at the same time, there was no way to do better or worse on this Leg without producer intervention.

If there were four flowers for four teams it's feasible that they would put two on the first floor and two on the...

Remember they did leave earlier that the others (1 or 2 hours ahead?)

Also, the three teams arrived around 1:30pm, I looked this up on the flight schedules. When TK and Rachel arrived it was still light outside (most likely 4:30 to 5pm).

So I would say they were 3 to 4 hours behind on arrival.

it looked like the cluebox was right outside the fence by the moat that surrounds the castle. so if that is the case, then there may not be hours of op. but i could be wrong and that is still part of the grounds.

So we don't see them for the entire show and then it turns out they were only 3 hours behind Nick/Don? Did they spend 16 hours playing robot soccer or is something fishy here?
