Those ladies who got conned all seemed to be reasonably capable and well educated. But I guess millions of otherwise sentient people fall for con men (and women) everyday ~whether they are defrauding you out of a shady looking psychic storefront, a church pulpit, or a government office.

Jodie was not my favorite this season, but she was the best on the day and deserved the win. And she does look like Alanis! Peter's was very nice but dear me, those tiny cup handles! Those are totally slipping through my fingers after a couple sips of "punch!" : D Keith was so proud of Peter, and I really enjoyed their bond. I actually liked Adam's the best visually, but it wasn't exactly the challenge. Still, I think if he would have made his decanters with a more stable base, the judges would have had a tough time. I mean, Adam, come on, those are totally tipping over at the slightest nudge! If he wanted to do that shape, they really needed some kind of holder that they fit into.

What is wrong with this show.... "Hey, let's think up a challenge where the bakes are sure to be a huge disappointment and look like crap!" Are Nancy's "dancing hands" the new Carla's "duuuude?" Please stop Nancy, you already have your boozy broad shtick as your annoying judging thing.

The length of the show hasn't bothered me, and I've pretty much been enjoying it. Maybe I'm used to 3 episodes a week cuz that's how they do Masterchef AU and some UK programming. But damn, the racers must be exhausted! I think the right 4 teams are left, so I'm good. It was gonna ruin the whole thing for me if one of the teams that joined mid-way through won it. God help me, I'm kind of rooting for Aleisha and Chris.

Half the town was guarding Maxie's hospital room so Peter couldn't get in, but I guess they're all well and good with Maxie hanging out at home alone, with no guard, and not even a change of locks. Gee, do you think a crazed murderer who is obsessed with her and who's baby she is carrying might drop by?! Ugh, I don't want Valentin bogged down with a baybay story line! I wonder why they had WL cut his hair if they were just going to kill Franco a day later. If I was WL, I would be pissed! (Unless he wanted to do it and/or did it for another role.) Add me to those who would like to see JJ act with WL ...but with both of them being such proficient criers, can you imagine the waterworks that would ensue!

@Spunkygal, hey girl! With my milk they charge $2 for the jar, and if you don't take it back to the store, you don't get your $2 back! And you have to clean out the jar to take it back! (PS. Did you know the new season Masterchef UK has started!)

That looooong opening shot of Sam's cold shoulder was pretty hard to stomach. Did Maxie not change the locks? Cuz I'm pretty sure when one dumps a crazy murderous fiance who is obsessed with them, that is sort of job one. Between super PI Sam, cops Dante and Mac, and special agent Anna, someone might have suggested it. Ay yi yi!

The Pinch Me Dough also released essential oil scent as it was manipulated which helps with stress relief. Salad in a jar is a hassle for retailers, who have to handle the bottle returns. I buy milk in glass and have to go to a separate counter to return the bottles. It's a pain. Don't know if I'd go through that for salad.

Sherri's mom seemed like a strong, supportive parent, so I wonder how Sherri got to be a woman of such low self esteem. The guy seemed to be a master manipulator but for the life of me I did not see what was so mesmerizing about him.

Danny: Dad!!!!!! Jason: Fuck. So WTF was supposed to be going on at the never-ending poker game of blah? Was the one guy cheating? Was Mike? Cuz in a two-person game of 5 card draw, the odds of one person having a royal flush and the other a full house are infinitesimal. Did they try to beat Mike up, but being Mike, he knew Jiu Jitsu and took them down! Then he had time to iron and strap his winnings into fucking banknote wrappers before splashing them on the table for his simpleton hosts. Aaaaaagh!!!!!! This is so Goddamn dumb! Mo staring off into space trying to read his line: Well, uh, so, the Tan-O, is, ya know, your dream. Aaaaaagh!!!!!!!!

I was rooting for Adam, but damned if Peter isn't making my heart grow three sizes. He's just so darn lovable. I would not be mad if he took the whole thing. Keith obviously has a strong affection for him. No way Hannah was going to go through when she is the only one who leaked. Jodie is talented and a lovely lass, but I've never "warmed" to her. That said, best of the day next week deserves to win. Rose is a gem. I would like to know more about him. That was hilarious when he was helping Hannah (I think it was) "deliver" the cardboard cylinder from her base urging her to "push!".

Sam comes in looking upset and Jason immediately asks if Danny is alright. Scout is already a non-entity to him. They really should give us 5 minutes a day of Britt and/or Leisl, just so we can have a break from all the heavy drama going on right now. I guess we will have to settle for that hilarious(ly bad) small town yokel story line about the broke naive African American couple losing their bar when a brilliant, kindly white man enters their lives as a mysterious savior. Ugh. Surely SURELY Mo cannot think he is doing good work here. ...surely?... I'm guessing the guy that came into the bar is a mob guy and wants to launder money through the bar or something?

I could not believe that guest judge... "Bars all over the country will be copying your look." Um, no, I don't think so.

Didn't Laurent come in 2nd in the first challenge? I guess that doesn't count for anything. I did not know the white striping on a hot cross bun was a flour paste decoration. I always thought it was a sweet icing. Hey, I learned something!

I really thought the bus should have won. The guest judge didn't like the pillars. I think they worked well as separators for the different spaces, however the white was too garish. A light tone of one of the neutral colors already in play would have been better. But the bus in whole was still better than the train car, in my estimation. The judges seemed so blown away by the bar in the train car that they gave them the win, but I did not find it the that freaking spectacular, and the "kitchenette" was basically a tiny microwave in a closet. And their main seating was plywood. Ouch! I wish they would have started out with more designers. They are already down to 5 on episode 3. They must only be having 6 episodes. Interior Design Masters is ending too. : ( I've never heard of the guest judge.

Micaela darling, when my honey, builder Nick, looks at you like you are insane and then flat out says "Why not make them real cupboards and give them some storage?!!" then it's time to re-think your decision. That was just nuts. I HATE fake plants! I would rather see NO plants. Fake plants have no warmth or vibrance, they are just plastic tchotchkes that make me feel sad. And being practical, who in the hell is going to keep them clean. What a nightmare trying to dust all the nooks and crannies of those things.

WL gave me the sniffles again today. Can I adopt Cam?!

So, they spend years and YEARS doing every manner of machination in order to redeem this character until I finally break down and accept him and even begin to enjoy him, and then they kill him off?! I will be so pissed. And if he is faking this to nail Peter, I will still be pissed, cuz Franco would not put Cam through that after everything Cam has been through. Not to mention, we just went through Taggert faking his death! Plus the dead (not really dead) Sonny fiasco. It would just be too stupid. Also, if they were planning to kill off Franco and bring RH back as another character, then I would have expected the producers could have written Franco's death to be much more dramatic than having his last scene be with god awful Peter. He could have at least survived until the hospital and where Cam could goodbye. Poor Cam.

What! What plate of food to go from quarter to semi-finals?! Did that used to be when they cooked 2 courses for a couple critics?

Franco still has his condo/studio? With them so short of cash? And he's feeling well enough to carry an unconscious Peter there?! Peter is huge! But I guess if Tracey can carry Alexis... I will be shocked if Jason doesn't bust in and save Franco. Maybe they will also have Jason be the Maxie whisperer. I agree with those who said Maxie's makeup was not right. It looked like when drag queens don't effectively hide their 5 o'clock shadow!

I thought the guy with the ugly black monolith in the middle of the room should have gone, cuz that whole room was pretty clunky and unusable. I mean, the big "transitional" dart board was right in the middle of the desk space. Who is going to throw darts at that when they can easily hit the desk, the crap you have on your desk, or the wall! It was also too low for a dart board. Having said that, the dance floor and the 3 foot runway were absurd as well. Also, hated the storage pop ups in the middle of your table with ice and stuff in them. Who is going to be stashing all those goodies in there, just in case? I'm guessing those nooks would never get used. Wow lumberjack guy went from "I am into nature and natural materials" to "I am into geometric shapes!" But I'm glad he pulled it off. Guess I will root for him and the older guy. ....for now. : D Okay, I am admittedly an old school gal, and have shunned the social medias, but good lord with those Tik Tok videos! WTF?! Are you suppose to be able to glean any useful information from them? Cuz all I got was flash flash flash the end.

Yeah, but that was only cuz he felt really, really bad about just leaving him lying there all shot up.

I was so mad when Michelle made Kim Chi cry by telling her she didn't speak well. How can you critique someone for a disability?! Kim Chi said she did the best she could, which I thought she really did raise her enunciation in her ad, and obviously was trying very, very hard. A speech impediment is something people struggle with for a lifetime and it is not like Kim Chi can make it go away because she is on Drag Race. Furthermore, making KC cry is like kicking a puppy! It's obvious she is just there for her artistry and is not going to win, so no need to tear her down like that for something not entirely under her control. Chi Chi slayed. Wow.

I skimmed a lot of it, but I did not see that anecdote. Clearly though, Mo had a LOT of say in how things go. Yes, but then it will POOR CARLY and POOR SONNY... but, but, but, their amazing love will ultimately win over evil Nina's machinations and in the end they will become even more powerful and golden than they were before!!!

The right person went home, but I also thought the Diner and the Tiki went too far into kitsch or party themes. It might be fun for a few hours, but if you are spending a long time there or going day after day, you are going to feel like you are stuck in Mel's Diner or a Tiki lounge. It's so specific. And how is going to look once a family throwing towels, swim gear, and other items that don't fit the theme all over the place. If these are huts that the owners rent out every day to people visiting the beach, then maybe I can see it. That wasn't made very clear and I also would have liked to hear from the owners.
