Good grief. How many times does Lisa have to be in the bottom and have a nasty atitude in front of the judges before they send her home? Ugh. Maybe next week. I love how respectful Richard, Steph, and Antonia all seem to be of each other. I'd love, love, love to see them final 3.

Ditto, Nerovh! on both wanting Lisa GONE, GONE, GONE and wanting Richard, Steph and Antonia final three. They are the ones who deserve it, both for attitude and cooking skills.

I dont remember any chef season where you had so many people with the same bad attitude week after week. Lisa has to go next and then Spike. I think Bourdain called it on Spike, he is smart and calculating. Pure genius staying out of the kitchen on this one. What I really dont like about those three is how easily they will throw anyone under the bus to save themselves.

Spike was really smat to let the other two become a trainwreck - BUT I don't see that as Top Chef leadership. I was really cheering for the other team, as I think they have learned a lot - and I did NOT start out as an Antonia fan!

Well, if I knew you all were going to chat here after AI, I would have come with you! LOL I was surprised Dale went instead of Lisa, but I do understand their reasoning. She just has to go next and then Spike. Sounds like everyone agrees with the final 3. My DD's boyfriend who is now at the Culinary Institute of America in NYC, thinks Stephanie will/should win. I'd love if she won. She's been so consistent and doesn't have a major chip on her shoulder like.. cough cough..... some of the cough... rest!

Crap! Another week that Lisa didn't go home! When are they going to send her packing?? It seems like every week she's in the bottom 3 and skates by. I can only hope she goes next week. I'm so tired of her attitude!

I kept hoping and hoping it would be a surprise double elimination of Dale and Lisa since they both seemed so bad. I have said in the past, don't take on the leadership role becuase it seems that person always goes down when a team loses and I don't see how much is really gained by being the executive chef. If your team wins, you may be the winner of the round which was not the case since Stephanie won but the leader or executive chef almost always gets sent packing when the team loses. I would never want that role. Didn't it happen to Tre last season? I hope I have his name and season right. He was an excellent cook, took on role of executive chef during their restaurant war and was sent home and he was a good chef. At least they brought himn back for the HOliday cook off and he came in second.

No surprise, but I wish Lisa had gone home (but I hoped that would happen last week, too.) I have to wonder, if Dale had won the quickfire and was able to choose the teams, how it would have turned out. I think having Lisa on your team is like doom..

Kellsma, I was also hoping for a double elimination. I guess they couldn't do it so far along in the season; it would have really thrown their planned shows coming up, but I thought it would have been really fitting.

I was hoping for a double elimination too!! LOL well, i hope the dream team is the final 3. Anthony at least touched on Lisa's bad attitude.

It would have been interesting to see what would have happened if the teams were different. But I am happy to see that Richard/Steph/Ant are all safe. I'd like to see a Richard/Steph F2.

Richard, Stephanie and Antonia just come across as the most professional of the contestants, with Richard and Stephanie as my top two. I would be very happy with either a Richard or Stephanie win.

Sea, I THOUGHT Dale muttered an aside right after the team choosing that those two (Steph and Richard) were who he would have chosen as well -

I must be the only one that is not bothered by Lisa! ROFL!! I really don't know why I'm not. Maybe it's a "Pierced Sisters in Solidarity" thing. Yeah, I know, I'm strange. That said, I do believe she or Spike needs to be the next to go. I also want the F3 to be Richard, Antonia and Stephanie.

With me, Lisa goes up and down. She does have a bad attitude, but her confessionals have me on her side... Though I still prefer Steph and Richard. Kind of the same with Spike. And I do not fault Spike at all for taking the front/avoiding working with L/D. Really, if you, by no choice of your own, got put on a team with Lisa and Dale (and no one else) what would you do???

The thing that bugged me about Spike was how in the show he was saying that he was outside and he wasnt going to have the failed meals pinned on him because he was doing the decor all by himself with no help.......fast forward to the judges table.....Who was responsible for the napkins and decor??? Spike pipes up it was a collaborative effort, group decision. That really pissed me off. I just dont like him either. wasnt a fan of Dale but would have preferred for Lisa or Spike to go last night

I really think Lisa should have gone last night ... at the very least a double elimination. she's toxic as heck. Is this the second or third week in a row that she's totally thrown someone in front of the speeding train?

What about the rice thing? Wasn't it Dale that actually picked it out? So he was actually out and out lying. I was hoping either Dale or Lisa would leave. Neither one should win. I am glad in a sense that Lisa stayed because now she can't pin her problems on Dale anymore. Let's see if she can actually cook and if her disposition improves. Love the previews for next week when she is screaming again about being sabatauged. Maybe this is why they didn't show us exactly what happened w/ the rice last time. She seems to have so many problems cooking rice. And her speciality is Asian? Huh? I'm enjoying watching her dig her own grave deeper and deeper every week. She didn't even have the decency to say a goodbye to Dale. P.S. I just loved how Chef Bourdain called them all out to the other judges. He didn't mince words. I doubt Tom Collichio would have said anything close to it.

With the rice, didn't Lisa say to Dale, grab that "pudding rice" (or whatever it was) and he grabbed the box? (Her idea, his action)?? I didn't tape it but that is what I remember...
