S23.E9: Lonely in the Kitchen

[KeithJ]

Quote

The chefs are challenged with starting their own individual dishes before leaving the kitchen one-by-one; it is up to the remaining lonely chefs to complete their own dishes and also their fellow contestant's dishes using only verbal cues.

Ann Marie coming in to people saying “oh fuck” (and Joe confused bout the entire process) was high comedy.

Good call, Brandon.

[Tango64]

Dramatic pause, music stops, everyone waiting for the twist when Ramsay calls her back….

”You have to push the door.”

Hilarious!

I would not have climbed to the top of that building (shudders...).  That was a nice reward though-especially the sunset cruise component.  I don't blame Brandon for choosing to go and I would imagine the women were happy to have him there instead of Ann Marie.

The shock! when she returned and not Anthony.  That was worth the whole episode.

Hannah is more of a contender that I originally thought.  And, it was time for Lulu to go.

Oh, and the only former contestant I recognized at that returnees' table was Declan.  Yeah, they didn't need to rag on the chefs that much because they all lost their seasons...

Hannah is good, and she knows it, and that bugs.

i only recognized declan too, from his accent.

lulu standing at the exit door is me in front of a copier, trying to decipher what the 'jammed' message means and how to fix it :)

I am glad to see the back of lulu.  I had really come to dislike her, especially since last week when she pushed her dish forward instead of Egypt's and then she didn't even get a point.

Egypt was so hesitant to even name Kyle as a potential candidate for elimination and he made it clear that it was the first time Kyle had done anything wrong.

kyle is way forward in his personality, but he's likable...like a hobbit.

i didn't get lulu pushing egypt's times, he's running appetizers, doesn't the appetizers station basically rule the timing? veggies are less forgiving than the protein stations.

Shudder indeed.  I looked away when they showed the views looking down.  When I've gone with family to places like the Sears Tower where people can walk out on those glass floors high above the city, I'm the person with her back against the opposite wall.  That got me wondering if the contestants can refuse to participate in "rewards" like that.  It seems like there might be some liability issues if someone was made to do something they feared.

I was vey happy to see the last of Lulu.  I can't imagine her being in charge of anything.

I think the reason why they weren't happy that Ann Marie survived was because they loved Anthony so much. Lulu was obnoxious tonight and messed up so I am okay with her going.

Joe is getting more solid nowadays.
