Now I did a job. I got nothing but trouble since I did it, not to mention more than a few unkind words as regard to my character so let me make this abundantly clear. I do the job. And then I get paid.

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

I just kind of feel sorry for Angelo anymore.

Nice to see a (near) finale where it doesn't look like anyone's going over a screw-up or bad luck. (Though Ed did his best to change that.) I really don't know who the judges will cut.

Because books.

Me either, brenda. They liked everything!

..or I won't watch it tonight, since the hotel room has no CW. WTF? Like, eight news channels and the Ocho, but no CW? Stupid male business travelers who don't want to watch "Gossip Girl" or something.

The Ocho?

Ochocinco, I assume.

Wow. There's never been an all-male top three before , has there?

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

No need to white font here, Amy.

Weird - probably the least interesting group of chefs, but that was had to have been the closest judge's table I've ever seen. Not a single clear screw-up from watching the dinner footage. Usually someone looks like the goat.

"The Ocho" being the joke of ESPN 8, aka "countless sports channels" (ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN Classic, ESPN..college? or something).

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

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Poor Kelly - I was hoping Kevin would go home because I can't remember anything he's done all season, but apparently he can cook or something?

Still, it was good to see a semifinals where nobody went home for a mistake - everyone got to show off their skills.
