So now she has decided that nothing is going to get by her. And when I say nothing, I mean NOTHING. She starts nitpicking every fucking plate of food. She tells Gloria something has too much fucking salt in it, and to "get it right". She rides Danny about the time on something.
And then. Oh, then. She starts in on Scott. Oh no she di'int!! She tells him he needs to season something. He mumbles that she doesn't know what the fuck she's talking about. Hee fucking hee. But she doesn't stop there with him. O no.
She tells Scott she wants three new eggs because the ones he gave her look like hell. He asks if she's sure. "I am sure! Get em on!" He mumbles, "Go fuck yourself, you stupid cunt." Ok, I'm not sure about the last word, but it's what I'm going with because it makes me supremely happy to have Scott call her a cunt.
Paula thought that Andrea was too much over the top. Oh my God! She's up Scott's ass again, telling him his scallops are raw in the middle. He asks her if she's sure, and Paula is laughing in the background. She is out of control here, and he is going to lose it. And I love it!
She says he kept giving her excuses, and now she knows why Chef Ramsay is such a fucking lunatic. "You cook it; it doesn't cook you, Scott."
Scott says he is going to punch her in the fucking face. I love you, Chef Scott! Will you be my boyfriend? We can stay up all night snuggling, and talking about ways to kill Andrea! Sounds like fun, right?
Finally, Ramsay takes pity on Scott and sends Andrea back to the kitchen. Ramsay is back in control of the pass, and he wants a strong finish. Ramsay thinks this is clearly their best service. "Well done."
Post service smackdown. Lovefest?! Chef Ramsay tells them all to look closely. "Do you notice anything different?" Paula thinks maybe his hair? Nope. Andrea notices a spot on his jacket. What? Shut up stupid.
He's smiling because they had a bloody great service. He says they confirmed why they are the final three. But the bad news is, one of them still has to go home tonight. He wants them to go back to the dorms and come up with who they each think should not be in the finale of Hell's Kitchen. He's not looking for a consensus tonight, just what each of them personally think. "Now go upstairs."
Upstairs they take a moment to enjoy the fact that they kicked ass tonight. And then Andrea decides it's time to start talking about who they're going to pick. She's picking Danny. She thought he would be better on the pass because he's run restaurants before.
He thinks he's been a strong competitor throughout this whole thing, and that he's been at the top of his game. Danny thinks that Andrea is basing it on him at the pass because that's all she has. "There's nothing else negative to say about me."
He goes right back at her, saying he didn't think she did so great on the pass. "I think you were just talking a lot." Amen to that! She says she caught a lot tonight. Danny tells her he thinks she was just nit picking a lot. Can I get another Amen?
She then goes on to say that that was her standard. "I applied my standards to those dishes. I don't have to justify that to anybody." What a crock of shit. She was so afraid that she was going to miss another sabotage that she over compensated by sending back the majority of the food. If she did that in a real restaurant, their food cost for that night would be un-fucking-believable.
So Andrea is voting for Danny, and Danny is voting for Andrea. Paula is happy that neither of them have nominated her. But she still has to make a decision about who she is voting for. She tells us she doesn't know who to send up there. Ooo! Ooo! I know! PICK ANDREA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Down in the dining room, Chef Ramsay starts with Andrea. Her decision is Danny. She felt like he was not loud and that he was very nervous and did not deliver on the pass.

I kinda wondered why Paula did not pick Andrea to go to the final with her, seeing as how it would be better to get rid of your biggest competition (Danny). But then again, it really only matters who Chef wants in the final.
I was amazed at how pretty Danny's girlfriend was.
And when Chef kept introducing all the executive chefs and their accomplishments, all I could think was......isn't the food theyv'e prepared to impress these people just sitting around getting cold and soggy?

AND THERE COMMENCED GREAT REJOYCING ACROSS THE LAND!
Potty Mouth, I was whooping and dancing right along with you at the final outcome.
Maybe it was editing, but Danny was making me nervous this week. Andrea was just a total bitch on the pass, and I was hoping Scott would dump a pot of something over her head. Could you imagine working for a shrew like her? Good grief, Mother Theresa would not last 2 minutes.
As for Paula's choice - I think that even though she is friendly with Andrea she knew she had to choose her based on performance. I don't think GR would have accepted her choosing Danny as being worse overall than Andrea,it would show poor management skills on her part.
I will be happy whatever the outcome, both Paula and Danny are strong chefs who handle pressure well. I think Danny is more of a leader, but maybe we just haven't seen that side of Paula.
Thanks for the awesome job Potty Mouth!!!

I am so relieved Andrea's gone.
To me when Paula wears her bandana so it covers her hair, she looks like Ralph Macchio in The Karate Kid...

Oh...and if I had to choose a team from the sixl losers provided, I would go with Gio, Carol, and LA.
The other three are sabateurs.

YAY, I love it when bitchybitchybitches go home! I lost my shit at "HAHAHAHAHA I hope they pull your pubes out one by one HAHAHAHAHA" I still feel like most of the people on this show seem to inflate their culinary skills by a factor of 10 or so, because all the awesome experience they constantly lay claim to seems to have a hard time surfacing when the push comes to shove. Still, how else would have had PrettyGirl or Andrea to hate on... and some people just NEED the reality check of Reality TV.
loved the recap, love to you, too!
love, J-Mo :)

PottyMouth, I love your recaps for this show!
Thank goodness that woman is gone. Good riddance to bad rubbish. I was no Ben fan, but, as annoying as he was, Andrea was worse. (Ben's annoyance would at least fade into white noise as he blathered on in monotone about himself; Andrea, more like shitenoise, high-pitched to ear-splitting decibels. *shudders*)
JP and Paula in the limo was sweet. Nice to know he's single. Must plan a trip to LA soon.
Scott looked strangely hot calling Andrea a cunt. Strange, that is normally a turn off for me, but I was cheering him on. Go Scott go. (I figured Andrea doesn't need a cheerleader as she has herself, right?)
I *loved* the little screencaps of the offed contestants. Fab! Can't wait to read your finale report. Cheers!

Good riddance to bad rubbish, indeed. sorry I can't think of something original, but that pretty well sums it up.
Danny did deserve to lose the "impress the chefs" challenge. Fish & fruit is soooooo last century(eighties)!
Great recap esp the screencaps, PM.
Now, on to the FINALE!!!

YAAAAAY Andrea Gone! Finally!
Interesting all the chefs they picked, including Ben Ford of Ford's Filling Station (Harrison Ford's son and chef in his own right...). I think I've eaten at one of the named establishments, which means I need to get out more I guess...
Terrific recap as always!

I agree...it's def a win/win now that Andrea's gone! Plus they're both from FL...so they're my homies! Good luck to both Danny and Paula...either of them could take the win and they both deserve it!

Andrea's gone. It's about god damned time.
Glad to see one of my three picks make it to the finals. Way to go, Paula! Too bad about Giovanni and Robert.
I'm pulling for Paula to take the win, but I won't be too disappointed if Danny gets it. Like you said... it's a win/win.

LOL cattyfan about the Ralph Macchio comment, but actually, you're totally right!
I was so happy about this elimination, I started clapping my hands like a dolt.
I want Danny to take it because I just really like him - and he's kind of adorable.
But I'm not going to be upset if Paula wins it either.
This is the best final two for as long as I can remember on this show.

Darling Pottymouth, I'm right there with you "The witch is dead...the witch dead..Woohoo...!!!!" I'm so relieved. Honestly, I'll be happy with either Paula or Danny winning. I suspect that Paula will pull it out in the end, but we'll see.
Love your recaps. Woohoo the witch is dead!!!
Hugs,
Yenta

LisaMay: I agree on the cold and soggy food. Nothing like killing a dish by having it sit!
njgasmifan: I knew you’d be rejoicing along with me! I was worried for Danny, too, and I was about to lose it in a big way if Andrea made it to the finals.
cattyfan: Great call on the Ralph Macchio thing! Too true! I don’t know about Carol – she seems like she’s going to be a Bitter Betty.
J-Mo: I wonder if they inflate their skills, or if Ramsay looks for a certain amount of fuckups. He may think there’d be less drama without them, but if you look at a show like Top Chef, you can see that that’s not true. But like you said, some people seem to need to have their asses kicked on TV.
jennaboa: Thanks so much! About Scott – I KNOW!! I think the combination of his normal hotness, combined with a mutual hatred of the bitch made for Super Hotness!!
Donna Martin Graduates!: Original, unoriginal, who cares?!?!?!? The BITCH is GONE!!! Yay!
killbondnow: I didn’t realize Ben Ford was Harrison Ford’s son. I haven’t been to any of the restaurants, but I have an excuse since I’m on the East coast. Go out more and report back on the food! That’s an order!!
fierytopaz: I completely agree. It’s nice when you reach a finale that has two people who you’d like to win. Either way I’ll be happy! (hopefully)
Streaker: I think the one “choke” that surprised me the most was Gio. I really thought he could have made it to the finals. Oh, well.
georgiababe: There is something sort of adorable about him. It’s weird, because he’s such a redneck, and looks so dirty sometimes, but at other times he’s kind of cute.
Yenta: Woohoo is right!! I think it will be really interesting to see what they both do. Who they each pick to be in their kitchens could have a HUGE influence on who ultimately wins. Either way, I’m really looking forward to it.
Well Gasmi, we’re reaching the home stretch, and I am so excited to see how this all plays out. I think I’m going to stop and get a huge order of sushi to eat while watching.
See you soon!
SWAK, PottyMouth
