If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

No, it's Jen who keeps doing it, which is even more vexing.

Oh, that's ridiculous. (I mena, it's ridiculous that JEN doesn't pronounce that correctly.)

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

sumi, I like the brothers too but I wish the editors didn't remind us they are brothers every 60 seconds. I mean damn. I can barely tell them apart as it is, I think I got that they are brothers.

Yes, it is kind of a Lana's dead parents situation, isn't it?

Because books.

LANA'S PARENTS ARE DEAD?!

I think the Michael brother looks like Tony Hawk, especially when he has his baseball cap on backwards.

I was a little taken aback by some of the guys jumping in the pool. It was sort of a bad America's Next Top Model moment, I thought.

I'm glad Eve went. Two bland shrimp dishes in a row, and she was so wishy-wishy and blah.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Eve's personality was a real turn off. I think Tom was capping on the casting agents with some of his diss of her.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Also, I hated Eve's voice. Very annoying.

Speaking of annoying, if Jesse breaks into tears the next time she's in the bottom 3, I'm going to throw something at the screen. One of those judges is going to have to give her a reality check and tell her to suck it up if she wants to stick it out in the restaurant business.

There's no crying in cooking!

Well, Jesse will leave before too long. I was pretty sure that Eve was going because she seemed pretty clueless about what was wrong with her food. (I love that she seems to think that her "combinations" are too avant-garde for the judges.) Then Pretti - because also, pretty clueless. Then the ones that know what's wrong but cannot seem to do it right. Then come the really difficult decisions.

No, it's Jen who keeps doing it, which is even more vexing.

It makes me wonder if it's a pronounciation she picked up from Eric Ripert.
