Who in their right mind would voluntarily have their WEDDING RECEPTION at Hell's Kitchen? I'm sorry - there's not enough money in the world to make that deal!

I agree Teach. Unless it's a fake one.

OK, so who was sent flying out the door tonight? Er, rather, who's picture went up in flames? And yeah, I agree... who would have ANYONE associated with Hell's Kitchen do their wedding reception? I mean, yeah, getting PAID to have their reception probably played a big part in their decision but still... wouldn't you want to remember your wedding as a happy occasion? And not as a disaster? (Not that I know it was, since I've not seen the show yet, but I'd be willing to bet donuts! <grin>)

that was so upseting, I was watching and being manipulated, no way would Melissa stick around from her editing... I mean her sitting at the decorating table, any table - yelling like Ramsey taught her... the other women tho are meeker, Julia has potential,but not experience - Interesting when Melissa went to the Blue kitchen to ask for more sauce, it was suspect her actions - please, what cook doesnt know that potatoes go black? I think she was so self assured with her place in Ramsey's mind - that she thought she could push the limit this week??? not sure what she was thinking!

Miss Melissa should have know that potatoes ozidize with air contact - not as badly as apples or avocados but badly enough to spoil a dish! With all those knives in that kitchen, she is lucky not to have her throat cut! I hope the guys cut her off at the knees!

Melissa and Rock are really going to clash. Melissa and Josh are really going to clash. She was so over the top tonight. I kind of wished they would have strangled her with chiffon. What happened to her?

As far as the wedding was concerned, I was wondering if it was one of those 'wedding' performances that they used to have all the time.

The whole episode, I just wanted to grab Melissa and tie her hair back. Seriously, no chef would allow all that long, straggly hair to be flowing loose in a kitchen! Wonder how many diners found red hair in their food. YUCK!

Oh, and the scar on Melissa's chin really looks like she used to have a pierced stud there and maybe it got badly infected. Either that or she fell as a child and pierced it on something sharp and it never healed correctly. I suppose there are other options as well, but if I were to bet on it, I'd go with the infected pierced stud.

I never noticed her chin until this week, so I was wondering if she had something scabbed over on it???!!! It made me keep wondering if it could be something infectious like cold sores are, but that don't end up on the chin as far as I know. So you noticed it prior to this week, Max? I also wanted to tie her hair back and stuff something in her mouth! She SO should have gone this week! Even I know potatoes getting funky if left out of water for any length of time after peeling. That was just ridiculous! I don't know about them making up for two leaving on one week since the preview hinted there may be a double elimination next! I kept thinking that couple had to get big bucks to have their reception there. They got far more than that "gift" to Ramsey's place in Vegas. Could the whole wedding, including guests, be actors? I'm thinking about the woman wiping tears from her eyes during the ceremony. Weird, no matter what.

Yes, I noticed the scar a couple weeks ago. I remember thinking that she must be tired and had probably given up hiding it with makeup. Yes, the whole wedding could easily have been actors. Either that or they grabbed a couple who were planning a cheap wedding in Vegas and gave them a bunch of free stuff. Or, I suppose it COULD be people who really didn't care about a fancy wedding, but wanted a chance to be on TV. Certainly no one who really cared about their wedding would have signed up for this. Especially since we know that all the hollering in the kitchen can be heard in the dining room. Very festive to hear the chef screaming obscenities in the kitchen during your reception! LOL

I thought it was a cold sore. Scars are usually smoother than that blemish appeared.

i was ready to cut her freaking hair. even when she had it pulled back, it was all over the place. the thing is that i almost used to like her--she looks remarkably like lauren holly when she was on all my children. but after last night, omg, she was annoying! i did notice that next week, it looks like she actually has it in a bun. as far as the wedding--it was pretty funny actually. i liked how he coached them to clap .

We thought that thing on her chin was a goatee.

Besides Melissa's messy hair and chin thing, to me I thought she looked nearly "crazed" and out of it. Her accent seemed heavier as the show went on, too. I'll bet she was near the cracking point and Chef Ramsay moved her to the men's team instead of sending her home in order to keep her from completely fracturing.

I can't believe Chef Ramsey didn't tell Melissa to pull her hair back. It was all over her face. Between her hair and her chin, I had a very hard time focusing on anything else.

I agree with you all. I CAN'T believe that nobody ordered her to tie her hair back. That would never had been allowed where I had worked. Not only is it unhygienic, it is also dangerous, and a liability to the employer. Never mind the chiffon, they should have strangled her with her hair. I agree that Melissa seems to be losing it, like the stress is getting to her or she's off her meds. She looked crazed. I also never noticed until this show that thing on her chin. My money's on it being a cold sore. You can get them around the mouth, and they are especially triggered in times of extreme stress. Her accent is much stronger this episode, too. I wouldn't want to be anywhere near her in a kitchen full of sharp knives.

Was anyone else suspicious how the night of the wedding was the very first time the cooks were able to get everything out on the tables on time?

Melissa got on my last nerves in this show too. I'm usually not one to pick apart another's appearance. Its been done to me too many times, particularly with the hair. In fact, my hair was pretty much the bane of my existence when I was growing up. So much that even now as I approach 50, I'm still very sensitive about it. That being said, even I was extremely bothered by her hair in this episode. Not only with it hanging down in the food on the cutting board, but in her close ups. It looked like it hadn't been combed in days. One thing I did notice was, in several shots during the challenge where they cooked the dishes for the bride/groom to test, her hair was pulled back. So I'm betting those shots were from another service, and edited in to make her look even loonier and bossier. And what the heck was up with her "don't anyone do anything unless you run it be ME first. Don't ask anyone any questions except for ME." Who the heck appointed her Ramsey's second in command? Oh, and boy I'm sure glad she pointed out that the women's team wouldn't have had all those wins if it weren't for her. And how she's been carrying them all this time. Well, good for her then that she's going over to another team so she won't have the pressure of so much responsibility solely on her hair covered shoulders. IMHO, Julia is the one who has carried this team. If it weren't for her, these other women would have fallen completely apart long ago.
