Koan, thanks for posting the intro for quick reference. I was never good at the symbolism, though it makes sense when you put it in writing. Should we deduce the winner will come from Fei Long (and I'm sorry but every time I see that, I keep thinking of the Bruce Lee copycat in Street Fighter) based on the good signs? Also, the logo is of two dragons and is red-heavy. Why not use one dragon and one tiger? Hmm..

For further examination, the contestant order and actions:

Fei Long:

Aaron: Rowing, mud challenge shot (looking beat)

Courtney: Camp shot of her crouching and twisting leaves (WTF), slightly smiling.

James: Challenge shot of him carrying dragon, giving thumbs up.

Amanda: Smiling, using battering ram at challenge.

Denise: Camp shot (smiling), pre-challenge shot (muddy and blowing out breath).

Jean-Robert: Camp shot (carrying branch/bamboo), looking nervous and/or doubtful.

Todd: Camp shot (throwing branch/bamboo), looking up and nodding slightly.

Leslie: Camp shot carrying palm fronds, crying outside of temple.

Zhan Hu:

Dave: Mud challenge shot, smiling pre-mud challenge.

Jaime: Smiling and running during mud challenge, smiling (with someone's arm around her) pre-mud challenge.

Frosti: Struggling during mud challenge (being pulled down by James. Symbolic?), smiling pre-mud challenge.

Ashley: Climbing along something (?), nodding and smiling.

Chicken: Camp shot (carrying, passing bamboo), looking around.

Sherea: Camp shot (walking looking pissed), holding branch/bamboo looking defeated.

Peih-Gee: Carrying wood, smiling.

Erik: Carrying more wood, drinking water pre-mud challenge (while someone is rubbing his head? WTF?

I don't know if someone's already said this, but Sherea as actually carying the tiger at a challenge like James.
