Mallory is definitely growing on me- she is just so excited to be there!
She strikes me as really sincere in her enthusiasm, so I'm taking her perkiness as part of her personality, not something she puts on for the cameras, and really like her a lot. Also, she and her dad get along terrifically well, which is also nice to see.
Just Desserts - OMG Morgan, we get it. You're so unbelievably heterosexual you just can't stand it. Now for the love of chocolate, SHUT THE FUCK UP.
Yeah, Mallory has definitely grown on me. I've forgiven whatever was annoying about her earlier. And I like that both parent/kid teams have bonded and seem to be doing well for it. For whatever reason, I don't read Kevin's bringing up of his dad's physicality to be as him talking about what a burden he is, but expressing his concern over him. I think the physical breakdown earlier was really scary for him and he wants to try to look out for his dad and this is how. But I do think it will catch up with them in the end. This just is an incredibly physical game, no matter how it reads. Which is why the daughter/dad seem to have a good chance, because the older partner there seems to be fit. He's the one that does the strength challenges, and he seems to be hanging in pretty good.
Agree that I liked the doctors' lack of drama, even with quiet tears. I think they're fab. I loved the way they made that ff task so much better for themselves, instead of focusing on how bad it was and grossing themselves out.
I still would have wrung the other sales show host's neck by now if I were her partner. I'm glad to see her schlepping around stinky fish, but I was not surprised to see that it was the beta partner who had to do the physical task.
I know I won't ever be happy with Nick because of the way he treated Vicki, but I'm glad to see he's toned down since then. And Vicki was tearing it up this ep physically, even if they were deeply baffled by the ff concept. She was awesome both on the ascender and on the bikes.
I really would like to learn how to do that. It looked difficult but if I could gain the strength, incredibly fun.

I'm so bummed about the elimination in that episode.

Me too! I thought for sure it was whiny Danielle's turn to go.
Unfortunately, Morgan and Heather both seem to be pretty good pastry chefs, which means we're going to be listening to their drama for the duration of the season.
Just Desserts is such a train wreck. The elimination last night surprised me, but I wasn't unhappy about it.

Man, it has been painful to watch. And yet I can't stop. I wish that the judges had repeated the nice things they said about Danielle's dishes in front of the other contestants (or that they showed it).
Why are they all so horrible??? (Except the one quiet guy)
I wonder if there is going to be a second season?
Let me make this clear:
I am not Gretchen's biggest fan, but Ivy has shown herself to be a superbitca on the reunion ep. I mean damn.
Nina and Michael are giving me agita, people. I cannot believe what I am seeing and hearing.
