Actually, there was a Detour. But they edited out the other side since all of them did the muscle flexing part. Or they edited it out completely. But I doubt I got it anyways

(it was right as they went to the pit stop)

Often when all teams choose the same side of the detour it is shown as a miscellaneous task.

Thanks Avilsta for your question/comment. I am not sure what to think. The screen caps clearly describe the bodybuilding as a Route Info task. The pic of Bill /Cathi below suggests they have a blue Route Info. while driving to the theater (for the body building).

When Amaani/Marcus left the theater, they have yellow detour clues. My first reaction is that Detour occurred, but not shown. However, it's possible that the Route Info took an hour or two longer than expected, so maybe the producers cut the detour out to make sure the racers stay on schedule for their final legs to the finish line. What see ye?

I'm thinking one of the options was named "Bodybuilding Posedown", and the other one was just not shown (Igoing by the Nobel Dynamite-Viking Alphabet logic, the other one must've been an amazing-yet-difficult task).

BONUS FILL-IN QUESTIONS (100 pts) -- The player that guesses the closest to the actual answer gets these points. Only one winner for each question, so think wisely and add your answers to the following questions:

19.   What is the question asked to introduce the Roadblock? For example, Who has eyes like a hawk? Or Who likes to play in the sand?

WILD CARD QUESTIONS (50 pts. each) -- This is the newest addition to TAG 19! For the next couple of weeks, there will be five questions about events that will happen in the final legs of the race. That means no points will be awarded for these questions until the game is almost over. When added up, these questions will be worth 50 points each, so you can imagine the rankings could get mixed up by these questions. That's opportunity for some of the low scoring players to get a lot closer to the top. And an added bonus of the Wild Card Question is it counts as an extra leg of the game. As you recall from the rules (you read them, right?), the two lowest scoring legs for each player get dumped at the end of the game. Thus, the Wild Card leg can make up for an unfortunate week when your answers were missing or just not up to your usual game play. Woo hoo!

WCQ-1.   For the final cab ride in the race, how many different color cabs will be driven? In the event a cab has multiple colors, the predominant color of the passenger doors will be considered the car color.
    A. One
    B. Two
    C. Three
    D. Four
    E. None of the above

WCQ-2.   How many airlines will be utilized in the final leg of the race?
    A. 1 to 2
    B. 3 to 4
    C. 5 to 6
    D. More than 6

WCQ-3. Will there be any passport or travel documents lost in the last final two episodes of the race?
    A. Yes
    B. No
    C. Cannot be determined

WCQ-4. Regarding Andy and Tommy, how will the race end for them?
    A. They are the winners
    B. They place second or third
    C. They are Philiminated in Episode 10
    D. They are Philiminated in Episode 11 or 12
    E. They quit (such as an injury or can't finish a task)
    F. None of the above

WCQ-5. Where will the final "bath mat" be placed at the finish line?
    A. On the ground (includes lawn)
    B. On a paved or concrete surface
    C. On an elevated platform
    D. Inside a building
    E. Under water
    F. On a moving vehicle
    G. None of the above

Special Insider Questions -- These are harder and more random questions for players who have secret information about the race. The following two questions are EACH equal to exactly one-half of the point values assigned to the question(s) that a player responds with "disqualified" instead of the expected answer. No points for either question if all of the standard questions are answered without a "disqualified" response.

SIQ-1.   For the winners of this episode, which side of the detour do they take? The first side of the detour is the first one described, while the second side is the second one mentioned.
    A. First
    B. Second
    C. More than two detour tasks
    D. No detour or no detour shown

SIQ-2. Which team will be the third team to complete the detour?
    A. Amani/Marcus
    B. Andy/Tommy
    C. Bill/Cathi
    D. Ernie/Cindy
    E. Jeremy/Sandy
    F. None of the above (includes scenario where no detour occurs)

If a question is confusing or misleading, please BRING IT UP for discussion. Every effort will be made to fix such problems.
