CTgirl asked: "Any thoughts?"

I really should do like Rudy and say: "I dunno." I see however that no one has made a case for TK and Rachel. What happened to hippy power, FP?

I like the irony of Don and Nic beating Ron and Christina at the mat. It is the only remaining story involving two teams. I like the idea of Daddy finally coming through. I like the story of TK and Rachel keeping their cool despite the tension of the race.

We have:

Talent: Will it be Christina winning it because she is the smartest, having gone to a high falutin' college?

Experience: Will it be Don winning because he knows how to do everything?

Strength: Will it be TK winning because he is young and strong?

Really, I don't know, I haven't been able to read the story of the season. I seem to recall that most of the detours involved learning how to do a local task: Mining for gold, stringing flowers, posting a billboard, building a wall. I would tend to go with Experience being the underlying story and that is Don and Nic's story.
