I was able to watch the Halloween episode on the CBS website. I'm not a subscriber and there were no restrictions on the episode. Sorry, after the first commercial cut, I got an unavailable message.

Can someone tell me when the Umbrella siblings found out Marigold was what gave them their powers?

A suggestion I saw somewhere: Jim Gaffigan as Walz. Taran Killam as Vance.

Delusions of grandeur is a little harsh. I think a lot of folks who apply are just fans who want to participate in a season. They want to interact with Phil and get to travel around the world doing Amazing Race stuff for free -- and get some money for it (not necessarily winning it). I think each season there are always some slots reserved for "super fans". It keeps the fan base active with the hope of being a participant. This season there does seem to be more of these teams. Of course when asked, the racers will always say "I want to win" even though they aren't a competitive team.

I'm leaning toward Navarro is alive. Navarro's house was basically empty when Danvers went there. It makes more sense that she pack up possessions and left in her car than if she committed suicide.

This is how I interpret Danver's known hook-ups 1. Jake (deceased). Step daughter Leah's father. Son Holden (deceased) father. 2. Ted Connelly, Police Chief. Danver's boss 3. Geography Teacher. Name? 4. Kate McKittrick's (ice rink lady) ex-husband. I thought Connelly was the ex-husband but I seem to recall a mention that the ex was a mine executive. My current thoughts are that Jake was the drunk driver and the cause of Holden's death. Also, Danver replaced the elder Prior as head of the Ennis police force.

He says "She's awake". I only point this out because multiple people say this and it may be an underlying plot point.

Of the eight men at Tsalal, six froze to death, one survived (Lund), and Clark is missing and presumed alive. They originally thought Clark was a victim and would be among the frozen bodies. I think they focused on Clark because he had a connection with Annie. There was a picture of him wearing Annie's parka. It was the Supply Guy who saw the spiral tattoo on Clark. My question: Was that Annie's body in the trailer?

Did anyone else wish Munch's last line was "I live here now!" 😊

From a Google search: Why do animals still move after they're dead? The movements occur because the muscles and nerves go through a short phase of hyperexcitability as they are progressively deprived of oxygen and die

With this show, I have a feeling that Avis' new side story will be her mentoring the female student for a few episodes. It was good to see Melanie Mayron do double duty as an actor and director.

Joel & Garrett's Recap:

That is the first time I can recall an instructor joined with the reading of the clue away from the main area. Has that happened before? Perhaps Corey wanted his dad to meet Anna Mai (the instructor) for non-race reasons?
