To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

The one-two "Top Chef" punch last night was fantastic. Very happy for Bayless, whose food just looked and sounded amazing. And I'm looking forward to the new TC -- the new cheftestants look farely competent and interesting so far, although I do hope Misogyny Mike goes fast. (They're starting to call him Top Misogynist over on TWOP. That is a man who will NOT have much of a fan club when this is over.)
