English schoolboy joke: Where was the Magna Carta signed? . . . At the bottom.

Hey Dominick, if Sebastian is Sea Bass, you're DomiDick.

101 Dalmatians for $2,000? We're back to KG Jeopardy.

I have read Rebecca many times and always pronounced it Manderlay (actually Mandalay because I'm British and don't do "Rs"). Anyway, I went to You Tube and sure enough, Joan Fontaine clearly says Manderlee. Now I'm going to rewatch the film.

Or Frankenstein's Monster for the same reason.

Why not let the call go to voicemail/answering machine?

The two reasons I came here to post! The only reason Shatima got anything close to pasta was because Tyler rescued her abomination. Lacey hadn't really bothered me before, but she was obnoxious tonight. She claims to have grown so much but can't even handle a tomato? Shatima - - I can't even go there.

I'm surprised he even appeared. (If only because he must have known that Le Cirque was in dire financial straits.) As you say, he didn't seem to understand the concept. Was he just going to put out a mire-poix stuffed ravioli? No sauce? Where were the basket ingredients? I couldn't believe how sycophantic the judges were about the filling. Ugh.

I feel so bad for Padma.; she's obviously not feeling well, and was literally gasping for breath at the beginning. I don't feel bad for Michael V - he must have been on something when he got those appalling neck tattoos, and looks like he still is.

No kidding on all points. I had to turn the sound off and avert my eyes if I saw Alan was answering. And what the hell is with grown men and pre-teen girl signatures.

Perhaps they stopped at Somalia on the way to Thailand. ;-)

Alex thought he was so clever with his Welsh accent, but completely missed the pronunciation of Llanelli. I had a good night tonight! Helps that I grew up in the UK. Nottingham, Cardiff, Windsor, camellia, baths, Karen Blixon, Glass Castle, colonnade, Gallipoli.

I will never understand why people choose to eat this flavorless rubbish.

Those white sausages (from Anne and Tyler) looked disgusting. Anyone who calls herself TeeTee should be shot. Does she really think her children will be proud that their mother is named for breasts? Turned the sound off for most of the episode because this show plus sausages plus innuendo . . . . Why do I watch?

I thought that my re-watching showed that Carrie succeeded with her baking, most were sort of acceptable, but the "puffs" were a fail. As has been said before, the judges' rules and guidelines can change within a metre of altitude sickness.

I'm not sure that I've ever done this before, but I rewatched the episode (mainly to make sure I'm not mad). Anyway, just a couple of thoughts: - Chris in the EC "What I'm cooking is a lot of family stuff". Family is great, but hardly elevated. - Paul Liebrandt noted that Carrie executed her cornbread really well. It was the best comment I picked up on about the baking aspect. - Liebrandt announced the winner as someone with "a clear vision of high level cuisine and high altitude baking". Where do failed profiteroles fall into that equation?

This would only make sense if the other contestants could cook only with their three ingredients. (Not aimed at you, noveltylibrary) but why is this turning into toast-gate?

I agree about Adrienne. As far as Carrie and Chris, I don't see how Chris played it any less safe except for using quail, which he failed at.

I'm British and I've never heard of the second guest judge, but suddenly he's the most famous chef in the country, Carrie?

I'm not sure why everyone is so upset about Carrie doing toast twice, and I thought the male chefs' snide comments were mean-spirited. The chefs were obviously impressed. How many times did Bruce make pasta?

The scriptwriter for the commercial needs tot be fired -- you can't "empower confidence".

Thanks for the clarification. (And for jogging my memory, I think.) Unfortunately I do remember them.

Who are Brendon and Rachel?

Brittany was wearing a fanny pack. Their problem was probably more killer fatigue and the stress of getting ready to get off the plane and onto the next stage.
