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

Lisa and Kelsey (Kelly? Really Perky One) both seem like they're trying WAY! TOO! HARD! I think in both cases it comes from a genuinely deep desire to win, but it's unfortunately off-putting on camera.

THIS. And I don't think Lisa's choice of makeup is doing her eyes any favors.

Martha was much friendlier than I thought she would be, but Lisa and Kelsey's fangirling was ... a little weird.

I like Aaron so far. And Shane, even though he doesn't have a chance in the world, I think.

Kelsey (Kelly? Really Perky One)

I've dubbed her Tracy Flick and I don't think I'll ever be able to see her as anything but Tracy Flick.

PERFECT. Also, now I want to watch that movie again.

Art Crawl!!!

I think it is Kelsey.

Rumor has it that TC5 is going to be filmed in NYC.

I'd just like to say a gianormous "Whooo!" that Jen is gone. Though that might have removed my one reason for finishing out this season of Hell's Kitchen. What a train wreck.

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

No kidding. I'm actually surprised she lasted quite this long.

Sounds like the dirty pig Petrozza might be the one to win this thing.

I know!

And it's interesting that in the show Gordon tells the chefs that they will be executive chef at the new restaurant but the advertising for the show says something else.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

SO glad Jen is gone! She seemed to be a competent cook, although not consistently, but her attitude and ability to work with people needs a lot of work. And I was wondering if Petrozza might turn out to be the winner simply through not making any of the mistakes that others have been making (Christina - don't burn the food OR the chef!)

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

I was reminded that Petrozza was the individual responsible for the hen in the pumpkin during the first episode.

Wow.
