It's crazy that we've lived in the same neighborhood and never met. Okay. Seriously, I know. So it's like a new crazy world, the world of YouTube. Kind of funky, but here we are. Well, here we are. I love it.

Okay, so this episode of Top Shaft season 20 episode 12 is called Goodbye London. Could have used a little more creativity there, but for the most part loved it because my faith came back to the show. I know. I was I was really scared after last week when a mar and Sarah were kicked off the show, but they didn't waste any time getting to the bottom of this. So we started off with at the chef hotel, which is what they really should brand that Kimden. Kimden chef hotel.

And everyone's waking up. So as these episodes, the episodes continue to be supersized despite the fact that they were fewer and fewer people on it. So we're getting more time of watching people waking up and we're literally just watching Gabri making his own bed, which is funny because I'm like, Gabri, you know you're in a hotel, right? I just wanted to remind you, you don't have to do that. So, um, yeah, so we all just keep making your bed, you know, it's like when people become actors, they're like, I'm going to keep my busing shift. It's like, oh, okay, you're super humble. Um, so I think Gabri is doing that. Also, we get a

shot of Ali working out, which is really the only reason I turned this on today, because I was like, you know, there's not that many people. I'll just wait to see who wins later. Nope. Ali's working out. And you know, he worked out in a hopeful way, like in a way that I was like, I can do that. I mean, I could live things like just above my head. Is that all I have to do to look like that? I'm gonna do it because. I heard they, wow.

Yeah, I mean, Ali doing great work with his body. Because what we learn is that Ali actually started off as kind of like a jock. In fact, he didn't even like food that much. But he, the only think he would really eat growing up where sandwiches. And he just only ate sandwiches and started making sandwiches and he just made really good sandwiches.

And that's where he discovered his passion wasn't making sandwiches. Yeah, he had like a whole sandwich journey and it's so funny because I do too, but I'm usually crying when I tell mine. It's like, oh, and then all the other sandwiches. That's all I could have. And then I went away watching things and stopped eating the sandwiches. I just couldn't stop eating sandwiches. I still, I go and bed at a lonely night.

And I still, before I go to bed, I say, I love you, sandwiches. So that's mine. His was like so hopeful and beautiful. Like, he made sandwiches. People like to sandwiches. He opened a business in school, which I don't know, you could even do that.

I mean, I appreciate the free market in Jordan public schools. I love that. Did he have a truck? How did you make the sandwiches? How did you keep up with the demand? You just made sandwiches. There's a story here. You're not telling me enough because all I can hear are your becks.

Okay. So let's start from the beginning. Also top chef editors, why did you not include this anecdote on your sandwich challenge? We literally had a challenge. We had to make sandwiches. Why not have Ali give like a moment? Or was it actually, you know, was that sandwich only challenge only for Sylvia and what's his face, Tom, when they had to make sandwiches to save them. Oh, okay, so it was not a general sandwich challenge,

so they couldn't put Ali's anecdote in there. You're right, that was a general challenge. Also Ali's, I think they probably saw this from like, so did somebody die? No, nobody died, I just made a sound. So did you get your feelings hurt in some way? Nope, just made good sound, which is, they're like, okay, yeah, we're not going to be able to work with this.

Okay, just don't use this store. It was in the bee somewhere, you know? Yeah, a question. Were you addicted to drugs and living in a gutter and then figured out that sandwiches were going to save you by any chance? And that how your sandwiches were took you took off? Do you have a child you haven't claimed yet, living in a trailer park somewhere that you just hope to spend more time with one day?

You, is your child a sandwich? Cause we would accept that if you wanna face on your sandwich child. Did you have a sandwich baby that you're refusing to acknowledge? Are you adopting a sandwich in a different country? Did you adopt a sandwich that got addicted to heroin? Are you about to get married to a sandwich by any chance? I'm using something up for your wedding.

Yeah, I'm using something here. He's like, what? One time I made a soggy sandwich. That's as good as we're gonna go. Saga sandwich, put it in the episode. We need to make this five hours long. Okay, guys are out. So, then Tom, the the Gabri makes his bed.

He makes his bed all nice. And then Tom comes over, he's like, oh good morning sunshine, all did you make your bed? That's so funny. And he jumps on the bed and just starts pounding on it to like make it all loose again. And just tell Gabri's like, morning is for tight bed time, bed sheets.

I thought it was cute that Gabri just laughs at him. Like he didn't even get all pissed off because Tom said a little prick. So Tom's like, oh here we are on the top five. And Gavry's like, no, the top four. He goes, no, because five, because somebody is coming back, so now it's four, but then there's going to be five. So I kind of top five until I leave their grocery cart at the straw at Whole Foods, an accident accident. Sorry, I'm such a clown. I forgot. If you're listening to this, Iaccident. Accident. Sorry, I'm such a clown. I forgot. I've heard you're listening to this. I'm sorry.

So then now they're driving to the kitchens and Ali is like, so Buddha, what got you into cooking? You also have a passion for sandwiches that got you through high school. And he's like, actually, case apparently didn't watch my last season. My father was a chef and all his brothers were chefs and I just remember going into the kitchen he was making omelette, it's looked at omelette, it was like in slow motion, how many landed on my

face, he said, oh that's a hot omelette, it's burning my eyeballs and ever since then, I've wanted to be a chef. In my father started it at a very young age, I don't even think I could have avoided it. I was put into a mold, I suppose you could say. I was molded into the man I am now by my father. So he hasn't stopped cooking since he was 12 years old, which is hot. So then Ali is like last challenge in London. I hope we meet the Earl of sandwich. You know, we don't really celebrate Christmas where I come from, but we do have a big sandwich that comes to town once a year and I sit on it's lap and to the stake, it my picture

taken. Thank you. Santa Witch. You know, when I went to America, it was a wonderful trip, the first time I went, but I have to say I was literally sent into a catatonic shock when I went to America, it was a wonderful trip, the first time I went, but I have to say I was literally sent into a catatonic shock when I saw that they have an establishment called Which which blew my mind? By the way, Christmas is celebrated in Jordan. For all of you who just threw

a pita at this Lebanese person who doesn't know, I accept it. I accept the pita to the face. Christmas is celebrated in Jordan. So there's my pre-apology for all of y'all. Well, yeah, didn't you see Ali talking about his Christmas sandwiches he made in high school? I would make a race with frankincense and murder. Every holiday I would make a wreath out of sandwiches. And the whole town would get addicted to them. Sarah's like, yeah, well, who got chopped in the leg?

Because that was my husband. A quick talk about your pussy stories about sandwiches. I grew up swimming amongst leeches and lamp rays and I got hungry. So that's why I started thinking. My mom thought my leg, my husband's leg was the sandwich and she's chuffed right into that fucker. You wanna get an origin story? Here's a good origin story.

One time my mom was making spinach and my dad ran over a cat in the street and we took it to the vet and the vet thought it was dinner. So we brought the spinach from home and actually it was pretty good. So this is the actual note I wrote down. I swear to God. Uda, I hope we get to go to France. That's for sure. I've got a Marie Antoinette bust mold ready for a Jello cake decapitation challenge.

That is what I wrote before knowing what this was and guess what? It is. We go to the kitchen and Padma is standing in front of mountains of Jellokakes. So guys, I'm a Jellok psychic. I felt it coming. You knew the Jellok was coming. You were actually ready for the Jellie. Did they?

I do think I'm ready for this Jellie. You want to argue with Vanny? Now, did they show this in the previews last week and I'm just an idiot and I saw it, but I honestly don't remember. I wonder if I'm not the best people who think I'm psychic, but it's because I saw it in a preview and I'm not psychic at all. God, I hate myself now.

I honestly don't remember. I do remember that the Trump lawyer that we... that the top out later, we did see, so I don't remember about the jelly. But good morning, chefs. We have dissected Gail Simmons and put all her body parts on display behind me. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. Hi, chefs, I'm just gonna shimmy for you Chefs, we have dissected Gail Simmons and put all her body parts on display behind me.

Hi Chefs, I'm just going to shimmy for you because we're almost at the finale. So wait for it, wait for it, here it goes. Hello. So you guys seem to have gotten some sleep. That was a really tough elimination challenge. Gail had eaten that much cheese in a very long time. She was in the bathroom for two hours. Anyway, after the last one Sarah gave me a blanket as a parting gift and it actually stuck to me. I had to run to the doctor for the rations. It's not going to get an easier for you or for my arm from here on out. I tried to pawn it off onto Gail but she refused the blanket. She said, I it off onto Gale, but she refused the blanket she said, I already have my sleeping bag, and then she actually crawled into one of the Wellington's.

Oh, so she's like, well, it's not going to get any easier, and Gabri goes, it wasn't ever easy. And she goes, oh, I know, bottom Betty. But the winner of last chance kitchen has been crowned, and one chef will be returning to the competition when, right now, any ideas who's coming back, and you can tell by the Walmart exclusive color. I was about to say, okay, we'll give you a hint. Here's a $25 sneaker.

Here. here. I mean, that is the most recognizable ankle I've ever seen in my life. I didn't even know I'd like had a knack for that, but I was like, that is most definitely Sarah. Here, here's a hand. Please take a close-up look of someone wearing a Cleads sneaker. Not Keds, this is just the off-brand version. You might have seen this sneaker on a YouTube video rushing really quickly into a best-by and punching people in the face on a black Friday. That's right. It's Sarah.

You may remember these sneakers as a complimentary add-on to some headphones you bought from a vending machine. A very specific vending machine, but it does exist. So please welcome the winner of Last Chance Kitchen and the owner of a really crusty blanket. The star of Sarah Pomp Rules, it's Sarah. Sarah Pumper rules. Get it. You're welcome to the dad. Let me shimmy. Yes, chefs. Anyway, and so Sarah comes and goes, those boys thought they were rid of me. I'm back bitches. Oh, yes, we smelled you coming. So we see a clip is three people it's a Mars. Sarah and Charbell, but Sarah won with cabbage. And we don't even get to

see a marr. But I love when people win with things like cabbage, you know, like you go with your badass. Sarah probably was like, you know, I'm going to do something with cabbage, something fucking Southern. That's what because in the South, we treat cabbage differently. We put buttermilk, butter, baby ass, so babies ass on that cabbage tell it a story. That's how we do it in the South. They're like, well, I love to see Southern cabbage. Well, that is the most Southern cabbage I've ever tasted in my life.

Sarah, you were the winner of last chance kitchen. And by the way, the little clip we see is Gail, because I guess Gail was a judge. I didn't watch the episode. Gail comes up and inspects and he goes, wow, that sure is charred like your hair, Gail. Sorry, that's the voice of me penetrating Last Chance Kitchen from Top Chef. So Sarah's like, I'm ready to win. I am inspired, right? There's a fire going on in this belly right now.

And it's not hot, brim. Hey! Sarah, let me be the first to congratulate you on winning last chance kitchen with the boot near you got for your prom. Cabbage. Welcome back, Sarah. So how does it feel to be back on national TV

as a poor person instead of just the internet is a poor person? Do you feel more poor or less poor? Also, did your father happen to strike Tom's leg with an axe while you were making your meal? All right time for your real your final quick fire challenge here in London Who's ready to break the mold? All right, time for your real, your final quickfire challenge here in London. Who's ready to break the mold? The mold. With a you, spelled with a you, M-O-U-L-D,

because we're in London. Yeah, just what British people say. I'm an honorary British, by the way. I don't think you know that. Oh, by the way, let me put on my very serious artists sunglasses that are just slightly tinted so that I don't have to see the world as the same color as the rest of you pours. And so just pretend she has someone so I don't have them with me.

I wanted to say Top Chef was nominated for three critics choice awards. And my show Taste the Nation was nominated for four critics choice awards. So I would just like to say to whoever these critics are, thank you. Did you see that clip? I did. Also, my category on Jeopardy, which I hosted, the category that is, was nominated for an Oscar. So thank you, Academy, for breaking all the rules to nominate my questions. Whoever these Oscars are. Also, for the rest of you poor people since Instagram is free, be sure to go over there and check out the very hilarious video that Ben made of Tatma from Jeopardy.

Okay? My thank you. Did you mean to make such a good video? Thank you. Padma also posted a video recently, which admittedly is like a sad video, but because it's Padma kind of made me laugh, where she had just seen a pig being slaughtered. And she's like, well, you know, I eat a lot of porridge, so I forget how to see where it came from.

And I mean, they have teeth and eyes and I know I'm still going to eat it, but it was sad. It was so sad, but it really makes it more special now that I'm chomping on the dead thing.

Go on. Plants are meat. And not only are they meat, they're delicious, especially if they're from impossible foods. They taste like beef. Exactly. Impossible is making meat history this summer. Yeah, they are. Summer of Impossible. I am so excited to be spending time cooking my summer foods, all that good stuff, and guess what? We can use impossible sausages, impossible brats. I mean, it's going to be a great summer for impossible foods.

Impossible beef is made from plants and 19 grams of protein per serving, and it's better for the planet. And it's meat! Plant meat! Correct! So if you're looking for something to grab for your grill, grab some impossible beef. Summer of impossible. Start making meat history today, just head over to the meat aisle at your local grocery store, grab some impossible beef, or or patties and get grilling. So, chefs, I would like to introduce you to your guest judge, the co-founder of Bompus and Parr, the duo behind the resurgent of the jelly craze. Please welcome a tiny man who really loves Jello and come beings from something about Mary. Sam Bompus.

Sam, welcome. Now, where's the feel like to be called Sam Bompus? That is a hilarious name, isn't it? Your name is Sam Bompus. Especially for a bottom. Doesn't it just seem like you're asking for it? I have a question, Sam Bompus. Is it possible to be named Sam Bompus and not become a jelly specialist?

I mean, was that... Are you mad at the sock company called Bompus? Did they really steal your thunder? What if they made Bompus out of jelly? What would you say about that? What would you say about that, Sam? Also, what are these words coming out of my mouth? You're the co-founder of Benham and Fraud,

but also Bompus and Farh. What do you actually, who are you? What do any of those words mean together? Are you famous? Are you related in any way to my dear friend Anchele Mirko or just a strange named person? So yeah, he's a little blonde with big combs from something about Mary.

So he comes in and he's like, hello chefs, it's a real hair, not hair, not. He does that thing where he nods just to make his bangs sort of standing straight out well. Bling, bling, bling. That's like his expression. He has expressive com bangs. I love it.

He does. So Sam, I want to know how you got interested in jellies. Were you the one who invented this mat that I'm standing on? So, Sam, how did got interested in jellies. Were you the one who invented this mat that I'm standing on? Sam. Sam, how did you get into jellies? Was it anal? Sam was peanut butter just too popular.

You had to go a different route. Tell me how this happened. How embarrassed are your parents? Sam, tell us when you realize toast was boring alone. Sam, how does it feel when you eat food that doesn't wiggle? Is that strange for you? So Sam, how did you encapsulate an entire business based on gale's feelings every time she sees me in a bathing suit? So I was like, well, I've been jelly-ing for 15 years now. Oh, well, you look great. I mean, I would never know how much of you was made of jelly.

No, it's an act. So I've been jelly-ing and myself and my best friend wanted to do something fun on the weekend. And we thought, Jello had the key. Oh, that's interesting. Usually when I want to do something fun with my friend on the weekend, we just go to a movie premiere that we were invited to.

I know, what a fucking odd friend. Like God I'm bored. We need to think of something to do on the weekend. We should get into jelly. Oh my God. Did you read my fucking mind? Well, I know jelly can be temperamental. Like, when she has to fast for a physical just get my advice to you is duck because there'll be a lot of plates being thrown. Yeah well we want to have fun so we've decided jelly held the key. She says oh that happened to me once. You know jelly was actually sweet enough to come unlock my door with the extra key I gave her. I said thanks, Gale sorry you can't in. I don't have any carbs here anyway right now. Bye, bye Gail. So he goes, but there's always a little bit of jeopardy with jelly. Oh, yes, I was on jeopardy. Thank you so

much. Here's my autograph. So good to meet you. Okay, good luck with your jellies. He's like Brother Key to jelly. Too much too much of the agents, listen, you need the agents, so right to make jelly work. So too much, and it's like eating a bouncy bowl, too little, and you're left with an embarrassing puddle on the plate. Been there, done that. Here's what you want, Shast. A little quiver. Oh my god, I'm having a shimming episode. Anybody else? I'm on chaparit e. Who here has an agent? I'm sorry, unless you're represented by WME, CAA, or UTA, you will not be able to participate in this challenge, apparently.

Today's Quick Fire Challenge. Create a dessert that includes jelly, and you have to use a mold. You don't have to use the mold exclusively for the jelly. Here's how it works. You have 30 minutes to make your desserts. Then they're going to set an hour. Then we're going to all get in a circle around Sarah and make fun of her stupid, terrible, ugly jeans.

Then we're going to push her. Then we're going to take off one of her shoes and throw her in her head and say, spend more money on your shoes, steep it. Okay, then you'll have 15 minutes to pay. At which point, I'm going to phase time my dear friend, Lena Weith, and I'm gonna hold the camera up to jelly, and then one of your faces, and she has to guess which is the one that's

actually made of gelatin. The winner will have an advantage. The winner will have an advantage. You're final, London challenge. All right, Shams, good luck. Your time starts now. Run, bump us, run, bump us. Harry, bump us to steal your wallet. They're all poor. Whenever,

whenever it's time to start the challenge, she says start and then she grabs the gas and like pushes them and runs back. She's like, the pores are coming. They're violating the space that we agreed upon that my agent said had to be happening. Sorry, I can't tell you. We got alms. Run, Bompus, run. Bompus, let's go running through that door where it's safe for you. So, that the chefs are cooking and Sarah's like, well, let's get down to the jelly.

Okay, gelatin can be finicky, but you know, Tom loves those gels and Buddha might just think for the sheer love of the molds. I mean, you just see like Buddha knocking things over with his boner over this challenge. Bura is so excited to have molds. He's like, there's no way on, no, he's like, there's no way I'm setting jelly

in a mold for an ounce on a mold. You know what I love? Molds. That's what I've got so many molds. I love molds. I love doing an orange blossom. When they do an orange blossom, but I've got an orange blossom to mold it into what a winky thing. I've got mold shaped like a coincidence. I'm going to joke off into that. I got my love mold. It's like going crazy. So then, Gabri's going to use flora molds and Tom is working on a goat cheese panicata and he explains his choice by saying, I think goat cheese panicata is actually really cool. It's just funny to eat because it looks like vanilla panicata and then you bite into it

and it's like, oh my god, it's goat cheese on the inside. Well, you should have saved that one for the next challenge you dumb dumb. Yeah, can I say something about goat cheese? It's important. So I've been really trying to like get healthy now because the doctor was like, you're gonna die. Actually, the Botox lady took my blood pressure. I was like, you're dying.

So I've been like really trying to eat healthy and stuff because someone will live. But yes, I'm so bored with salad, okay? I'm bored with it and I need something else. So yesterday, I was like, you know what I'm getting? Goat cheese. And I opened that little tube of goat cheese and I put it on my salad.

I don't think I've ever been so grateful. Okay. I almost cried. At the taste of goat cheese. So goats, thank you. Thank you for what you do, not only for me, but for this country, for this world. Thank you, goats.

God damn it. Goats are wonderful. I feel bad for people who don't like goat cheese because it's lovely. It's amazing. If I was on this show, I would get a mold of a goat and I would make a jello out of a goat and then I would milk it and then I would wait for a couple of weeks until that milk turned into cheese. Okay.

That's how much I love you goats. Yeah. That's a great ode to goats. So then Tom is like, Frank's a my super power. As a kid, I would always say I want to be a chef or a clown, both in spa people in a sense, one spars people to eat, one spars people to have childhood trauma. And then I, so I'd try to go to clown school, but it's not as fun as I thought. So, sheffity is like, what, what is German clown school like? On that.

German clown school cannot be fun. I used to work for a traveling circus called Cirque du Soleil. No, not Cirque du Soleil. Cirque du Soleil. Pump Duck and Circumstance. It was like a fine dining restaurant in a circus tent that would travel around.

And there were German clowns in it. Okay, let me tell you, they were frowny faced clowns, okay? That's what they were. It's not a fun place. Also, let me tell you, they were frowny faced clowns, okay? That's what they were. It's not a fun place. Also, no clown school's fun. You know clowns are depressing fucking people, and you know they take themselves too seriously in the clown school. They're like, God damn it, you didn't get... Well, is this just a foam nose to you? It's more than that. What are we going for? What are we feeling? It's like calm down person. I feel like school, I feel like German clowns,

where suits and hold briefcases, and they sit in the car in a very organized way. And when they come out, they come out very seriously and they go up to the other school, you will laugh now. Now it's the time to laugh. And they go, you make laugh noise now.

Now it's the time to laugh. Oh. So now Ali is working on a cremau with fruit and he's like, normally, you're feeling about that one? I don't like it. I don't like this. You need their now.

Well, you know, I'm not a fruit dessert sort of person. I'm by proxy, not a berry person. And he's like, you know what I'm gonna use berries and it's like, oh, fuck you and your sandwich truck. Ben doesn't like berries. You're like, excuse me, sir. That is not nice to do the bend on this. So he's like, normally it takes four hours to set, which is about 30 sandwiches that you can make.

And Sarah's like, I actually sent Jell-O-Shots the padmon my season. We call it the jiggle-giz back then. And we see a flashback of a padmon Top Chef Kentucky having this like whiskey jello shot like oh My god, oh it's a shong and then captain Sandy is there for some reason and she goes no Too strong huh? Okay, let me go in the back and have a word with the chef Hi, that what you're a fail wind, okay? Okay, Sarah, you're what wind would be

just failing, okay? You don't blow flags. Sailboats can't move with your kind of wind. You were a failure of wind. Just three courses, only make three courses. Okay. So Sarah's like, yeah, we call it jiggle juice. And she renamed it Gell Sweat. So, you know, something positive came out of it. So then Sarah's like, well, this time I'm not making that shit. So instead she's doing a basil buttermilk. God, this girl loves a buttermilk, doesn't she? Basil buttermilk jello. That, I'm not mad at that.

Cause I'm not a big jello person either, but I would have a basil buttermilk jello. And she's going to make it layered, you know, the bottom layer is going to be jello, top layer, crap weeds that you plant when the crops were covering. So Gabri is doing a Tres leches and he's like, and you cannot do this without the cake. But don't worry, it's fast. I can do it in the microwave. And I was like, seriously, I'm looking that up.

Do you know how to, I feel like that's dangerous to know how to do that. Uh, you never made a mug cake before? Have you ever made one of those? No. I've made a floraless chocolate cake, but I've made that in the oven. I mean, it's super eat. I don't even know why I'm saying that. It's nothing to do with anything.

Like I've made a different type of cake. No, a mug cake, there's a million recipes for them where you basically put like an egg and a flour and I don't know, maybe some other stuff. And you put it in the mug and then you microwave it for a certain amount of time and it puffs up and becomes like a little mini cake. And it's kind of like a fun novelty.

I'm sure there's like a spectrum. I'm sure there's some mug cakes that are wonderful. I remember making it doing one or twice, and it was like fun, but it's kind of like a weird cake. It's kind of like chewy, but it's a cake. So you're kind of like, it's so cool. I just made a cake. I just made a cake in my mug in two minutes.

I made a cake. Oh, that sounds so good. So, okay, so he's doing that. And then he's like my old dog, Zena, a Jack Russell. I don't know why I'm going down memory lane. Am I about to die? Okay. So, Zena, you saw I have a rabbit when I had Zena and Zena was just boing, boing, boing,

boing to look at the rabbit that was on the table. And that is what Gabri is doing in the microwave. He's like boing, boing, boing, trying to see if the microwave is cooking. It's, it's okay. You could see the, the distinct they have for microwaving on the show, because they put the microwave like all the way up on like the ceiling. It's like all the way up there. You know, I didn't even know they had a microwave in this kitchen. Yeah, apparently they do. And it's, I can't believe they do either, because chefs really look down on microwaves so much.

Got the stag. I can't believe they do either because chefs really look down on microwave so much. Got this dog. I'm sorry, we're watching Bueller build a fort. Yes, you is because you pushed a pillow. All right, just get the pillow back then. What are you going to do about it? You can do it. As long as we're talking about things in the background, I will say that on this video, I did have an image of a jelly behind me and it was so gross, I could only keep it up for about 30 seconds before

we were just took it off. And I kind of want to put up another jelly image, but it's just it's jelly. It's hard to find a good solid jelly image. Also you need to get a green screen because your head just fuses out all the time. People are using this, that's just not working for you, babe. We'll check on you on later. I can't fit. Listen, if I put a green screen up behind, I don't have room.

I don't have room to put a green screen. I'm just gonna back into it all the time. It's gonna fall over, but it's, you know. We're gonna figure it out. Okay, guys, that was our little personal break time. Okay, we got our personal stuff out of the way. Wow. Okay, so he's microwaving his pound cake,

and then the nap like they're one hour away. So Sarah's like, okay, everyone, well, we've got an hour. So I can tell you about a last chance kitchen to find anyone cares. No one. I'm just gonna cut to my shoulder. No, no, no, no, no, no. Because you know she will take the whole hour.

And then let me tell you what I was thinking about that cabbage. I say, you think you're gonna get the best of me, cabbage, yeah, it's nothing. I thought, what would my Southern ancestors? They're like, shut up, can we just take a break? But this hour. So now we're back from commercial.

Everyone comes back in. Gabri wasn't able to check in on his pound cake because the microwave was still going one time right out. So now he goes and fetches his pound cake out the microwave. And several of them, their jollies were set, but God breeze is not set. It's all kind of like, yeah. I'm there, there's nothing you can do about it now, right?

Right. So he puts it in liquid nitrogen, which is oddly, what everybody does when they, it's like when all else fails, freeze the fuck out of it, right? Because we see all the doing that as well. And Tom's like, I feel excellent. Everything is wiggling on my plate.

So I thought the last second, I do know what I'm going to do. Put some popcorn. Cheers from clown school. Have any of Tom's last minute additions ever worked out? Cause he does this all the time. And I feel like it's always something wacky and terrible. You know what popcorn is not good with anything else. It's good with candy. But whenever people are like, I'm going to put popcorn on this dish. It's not good with dishes. I've tried to do it too because I see it on shows like this.

Detectives just too aggressive for your teeth to deal with anything else. Don't you think? there's just too aggressive for your teeth to deal with anything else. Don't you think? Yeah, and it doesn't really stay crisp. It usually sort of softens in a weird way where it's like chewy, but not chewy to be fun chew. It's not crispy enough to be a fun crisp. Don't do it, people. So now it's time.

Okay, chefs, times up. Bring your gales forward. So Gabri is first, and he's made his Dolce de Lache, Panacotta with strawberry and raspberry coole and so because his was not set, he basically hid his his jelly underneath the cake and just covered it up. So Padma's looking at it. She's like, where's the milk that part of you dessert? I don't see it.

I don't get it. Do I use a spoon? How do I eat this? He's like, it's in the bottom. And Bompos is like, well, I've been digging around here. I cannot bang, dong, dong, dong. I cannot find it. And he's like, it didn't set just, oh, wow, the truth.

Finally, Lyre pants. But he go back there and think about how you just try to lie to me. Padma locks me. Nominie, of four plus three, critics choice awards. Thank you, critics. Wow. Well, at least we know that even though your child didn't set,

you made a beautiful cake in the oven, right? In the microwave, what? I just sense that from your tears. Thank you. Where did we get the microwave from? Where did America steal the microwave from? Where did America steal the microwave from? You'll find out on the next Taste the Nation.

So Ali is next. Do you need to put ketchup on your microwave? That's from the latest Taste the Nation episode. Season premiere. So Ali is next. And Pat and we go, wow, I can see the quiver. It's like Gail standing on a subway well done It's like gale getting ready to eat a charleston chew

So they did a dark chocolate cremeau a black crawl sauce and pistachio crumble and now to me Okay, I see his like simple little mold of the j jiggle like lame. It just looked like jelly literal jam Very jam Jelly's lunch will play through and some like very simplistic Blobs I was impressed. I actually thought it looked Lovely and refined and even though there was the presence of a berry which I hate I think it I actually thought it was like a lovely little thing There and so seems like oh well, you know what? You've got a really good bobble on that,

and that makes me smile. I mean, well, what doesn't make you smile? Your last name is Plumpus, or whatever it is. I mean, you probably had so much taunting in your life. Ha! So then Tom and Brompus is like, very pretty. I'd love to set your wobble patterns. Like keep in your pants, pervigel, jelly perv.

Okay, Tom, go ahead, go ahead. So Tom's like, I did Gorgeous Panacata, Cherry Jelly, Pietro Descarre, Popcorn, Side of Jal. I was like, wait, could you slow down? Because at least half of that sounded nasty. Okay, I love the Panacata, love the goat cheese, of the Cherry Jelly. I'm about to win about when she's good.

Beat-rood discs. Beat-rood discs. She's trying to get a little funky, could work, open to it, could work. Curry popcorn. Now. It's actually more the curry that's the, cider gel.

Now try it. No, not cider jelly there, because you know it's not sweet cider gel, it's like apple cider vinegar gel right? Yeah, that's what I know it. It's like this is negative. We say no. So Pam is like, um, I think you've beat root discs. You're jelly. I can't tell. Let me put it this way. Did you mean to make jelly out of this beat root disc? Well, the panacar does made which out of this one. Obviously, sorry, that didn't mean to sound offensive. It's just a German clown. So thenDitin as far, obviously, sorry, that didn't mean to sound offensive, it was a German clown. German clown.

So then we go to Buddha and his is served in like a little crystal glass, the little crystal cover and they have to uncover it, which of course, Bombers is like living his own doll's life. I mean, this guy's fucking thrilled. The Cumbings are like a bomb, and okay. So Buddha is like, the orange blossom shape in the middle is my mold. It comes with sephoron ice cream with orange blossom jelly and orange blossom panna cotta. Yeah. So by the way, he didn't use the mold on his jelly. He just did it regularly. He just

put the jelly in the cup and then he molded the ice cream, which I actually feel like is a little bit of a cheap workaround because isn't it harder to get the jelly to set into a mold? I mean, ice cream, you just put in there. And then a mold's all right away. Yeah, but they said, specifically that you didn't have to use the mold for your jelly. So he's like, why the fuck would I do that?

What I don't have to. I'm just gonna make, I'm gonna use a really pretty, because that mold was really intricate. You know? And it was a nice return to form for Buddha because he made another literal dish of, I'm going to use orange blossom. So I'm going to shape it like an orange blossom and call it orange blossom.

Three times, the three different types of orange blossom and my orange blossom, orange blossom. So, bumpers like, oh my god, this is amazing. It's just how to put even my spoon into it because it's so beautiful. And Pat and I was like, yeah, he came armed to the teeth with mold. Where's the jelly dummy? He came armed to teeth with molds. Just the way Gail comes armed to the teeth with three musketeer bars when she goes to the movies.

Gail literally comes everywhere armed armed with teeth with teeth. So it's actually... It's prizes of all the people she beat to the buffet at Golden Corral. So Sarah's has no jiggle. I was like, uh-oh. So she did a layered buttermilk strawberry jelly with fresh berries, ginger and pecans. And there's a lot layer of strawberry basil there. And Padma goes, oh, and she looks at him,

she just winces. She's like, oh. Taste like Kentucky. I thought we were done with that season. So Bompos like just strawberries, very delicate isn't it? And then the editors go, Its sss.

Yeah. Why don't you give me that? They liked it! They liked it? Yeah, that was it. That seemed like a premature... Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss Riders Room. Each episode members of the Riders Room and I unpacked moments from Season 2, sharing juicy details you can only hear from us. Stream and just like that Season 2 is starting June 22nd on Max, and listen to end just like that, the Riders Room on Max or wherever you get your podcasts. Well, now it's time for the results. Well, as usual, there's some that just tastes like shit,

and then there's some that also tastes like shit. So which are the least, which are the more shitty of the shitty ones? Sam, so Sam says, well, I thought this challenge was very difficult, but there was some swashbuckling flavours and sensational presentations. There were a lot to eat. Okay, that's enough. You don't have critic choice nominations, so keep it simple.

Yeah, we didn't ask for a bomb a giant amount of log. All right there. Now listen, we know that there were some of these were more gales than Padmos. So who else is a gale? Go with that. And he's like, um, Dabry. I salute. I'm sorry, it's Chalmerset. Well, Gabri was first, not enough of a mode, not enough mode. That's funny because I always say the exact opposite when I see Gail's hair. Wow, so much mold in there.

Don't inhale Gail's hair. I'm just warning you right now. Gail's hair can't be with us today. It's being remediated. Who else, who else judge? Who else bumper? And bumper's like a tom Tom, I salute your ambition to getting all the jellies together, but I would appreciate our clown autobiography on paper

instead of my plate. This is disgusting. The panel is like, okay, now for some good news. My show, Tastination, has been nominated for more critics of choice awards than this show here. Thank you. Thank you, everybody. Thank you. Okay, good news on the show I don't really know any of your names

Go ahead and continue Continuous Bobbuss I see London I see France I see on famous people who I still will never talk to after the season Pants, okay talk to after the season. Pants. Okay. Okay. So here it now for some good news for poor people, poor good news.

Ali, you're on top. I love the flavor of the black carant and I thought your chocolate was delicious. And Sarah's like, I couldn't resist wielding my spoon like a weapon and going into battle once it's Sarah Sam said that about Sarah. Oh Okay, thank I was like Sarah what happened to Sarah? She just annoyed the hell out of me right? It was stupid. I should have known it was bump us. I know Sarah just suddenly started talking like a British dandy who lost jelly. What is with Sarah? Of course it was so I couldn't resist wielding my spoon like a weapon and going into battle once again.

Okay, that makes more sense. So then he loves booties, ice cream making. Going into battle, swashbuckling flavors. Okay, simmer down, Liz Bitteler. Because he didn't say that earlier that was one of his thing, right? He's like, I was swashbuckling my, he does say swashbuckling flavors.

He said swashbuckling flavors. So I think he was like keying himself up to be able to say, I felt like I was going into battle with this jelly, a jelly battle on the high seas. So then Buddha, they loved his mold making with the ice cream, bold move. And Patron was like, beautiful, classic, blah, blah, blah combinations. You're going to win, we all know it.

Safron and Orange Blossom are a beautiful, classic combination that I invented. Thank you. Thank you. And to the critics who nominated my combination of Safron and Orange Blossom for best flavor combination of the past 600 years. I just want to say, hashtag bless. Thank you so much. I'll be talking about it on Jeopardy, which I own now. Well, the chef who really delivered used the mold exceptionally and put smiles on the faces of everyone in battle that day, whether you were in the front lines, whether you were

working the cannons or the arrows in the back. Chef Booter. Wow. What a surprise. So then Ali is sad. That was like, congrats, Buddha. Congrats, Buddha. You want a jelly challenge? How's my make you feel? You're the king of smuckers. Okay. Well, you just wanted advantage. Now, Dandy Bombas, go and take your bangs with you. Okay, bye. Shaf. Shaf.

Shaf. Shaf. Shaf. Shaf. Shaf. Shaf. There's only one challenge between you and Paris. Things are about to get like one of Sarah's family blankets.

Sticky. Before the air hits it, and it eventually dries out and looks kind of bleached. Things are also about to get tricky too. Tricky and sticky, two of my favorite combinations when it comes to Gail describing her shampoos. I mean, in 18th century England, which is literally the opposite of today, in 18th century England, a fashionable person's taste. So try to imagine someone other than Gale that we're talking about here. Okay, just imagine the opposite of Sarah. Okay, when look at those jeans and just say, dude, dude, dude, opposite, opposite. Think about me in a powdered wig.

Great. A fashionable person's taste was always under scrutiny. Oh wait, it's not me. I was not under scrutiny. Everyone was nominating me for best harpsichart use in a game show in the 17th century. I was under scrutiny, guess what? I went scrutiny.

I won. Thank you. scrutiny was a very popular game show in England in 1767. Later it was renamed Jeopardy. So back then everyone was under scrutiny for what they decided to eat. Dinner came in the form of Trump's lowest ceramics. And they're like what? Trump's lowest ceramics. Oh, huh? Trump's lowest ceramics. Can we bring someone else in here? I'm exhausted. All right. But people of course need to rest on gel mat.

Let me help. Maybe some hand gestures will help sell this. Trump loy means to food to trick the eye. Trump loy. She starts to start pointing at her eye and moving her hands up a doubt like this. A Trump loy tricks your eye. See, back then in the 1700s,

the British people really understood the value of making fun of the poor's. They have put fake food out on the table and watch the poor people take bites out of porcelain. It was a great time. Basically, it's a trick of the eye. It's like why Gail wears patterns out of the time. You see, in rich homes, you'd see a variety of porcelain items on the table to spark conversation among the guests.

Don't you think they had enough to talk about what the fuck you needed? You needed a ceramic pee and a pod to get your guests talk. How about, hey guys, maybe we should try plumbing. Like, why weren't they talking about that? Like, hey guys, have we invented toilet paper yet? Because my ass itches, okay? Let's take a time machine to 1789 at the peak of Trump Lloyd Times.

Hi, I'm Madam Padma, and you're at my dinner party. Here's how it sparks conversation. Hey Tom, do you think Gail's gonna eat the porcelain again? Maybe. She just did it. Wow, great talk. Oh, do you have an napkin, Proud Mom? Use your dress, it could use all the help.

Guess what, that's porcelain too. You just got Shremploid. She thought the napkin was cloth. By the end of that dinner, Gell had as many teeth as Sarah left. Okay, let's move on. There's a long history of optical illusion in the arts. Chefs have created visually stunning dishes that trick the eye. Your final elimination challenge. Here in London.

Bar was from a top chef. You're a very own, from top chef. Country that Sarah's never been to challenge. New. Paris, okay. So impress us if you wanna make it to the finals. Go. So Sarah's like, I personally don't like to trick someone

with my cooking. Wow. I have old. That is, you're such a good person. That's amazing. Buddha's like, oh, Trump, Loy, that's like a doppelganger. One thing has to look like the other. No, Buddha, a doppelganger is a doppelganger. A Trump Loy is a Trump Loy. I just loved the, the like, I'm a goodelganger is a doppelganger. A trumploy is a trumploy. Gaysame. I just loved the, like, I'm a good person. I try not to lie to people through food.

You know what I believe in? Honesty in food. That's what I believe in. An optical illusion is not a lie. It's just something cool, you know? Cracked me up. So she's like, I don't know what to do. And Buddha's like, one thing has to look like another.

Whether you want to cook one food item that looks like another food, or take another food that looks like an admin object, or take a gal and make it seem like it's well dressed for once, we just need to be fooled. It's kind of like Sarah's kettle sneakers, KADLE, not of your brand. Talk about Trump, Lloyd. Sometimes like on the boat we serve the God,

it's not a cigar. This challenge is made for me. You'll see you'll, oh, by the way, he'll be serving at Hatfield House where Queen Elizabeth learns she'll be queen. Where Queen Elizabeth learns she'll be queen and then last when everyone ate all her porcelain steaks.

What a conversation starter. You'll be serving the best chefs in the UK, including two Michelin star and whisper talker, Jeremy Chan. Oh my god, Jeremy Chan. Including Jeremy Chan, who was given a curse that he's not allowed to speak at full voice. It's his third star, which Claire Smith stole from him with her. The biggest shock here is that Jeremy Chan didn't show up on a black turtleneck and act like he act we was being interviewed for his brilliant performance in Godzilla, like Loha Lenny.

performance in Godzilla like Lohelini. Sorry, it's like our time three captains. I can't believe we bonkers. But he does, he is very actress studio with me. He's like, oh yes. It's like, oh god, can I just tell you, I really loved the way that you made a carrot look like a fork. Speak up, non-three star Michelin chef. Guess what I think I'm attracted to you by the way, quiet people.

I never really knew that I've never dated a quiet, well, one, and it didn't work out well. But I realized after Jeremy Chan, I'm in love with quiet people. I need to meet some because I found his non-need to be loud and obnoxious, just so comforting. Well, he's also hot, by the way. Second of all, well, he was, I thought he was hot, but you know what it was, it's not so much

that he was quiet, like his volume, I mean, yes, he was not loud, but he does that thing where he's like, I could be louder, but I'm withholding. Because there's some people who are quiet and you're like, oh God, I'm just not to pretend like I know what you're saying. But like, he is just like, I'm just going to draw you in. He's like doing a power play. Yeah.

Anyway, I found it very hot, but we'll get to that. Okay, we've got some time left. So they're deciding what to make and Padma gives Buddha an extra 30 minutes, okay? And so then they get their cars and by the way, did you know this? After you have a gal to spend at Whole Foods, 300 pounds naturally, you're going to You get to go to Dishum for dinner. Dishum, which is basically just a food court for the poor.

So enjoy. Yeah, what was, I didn't understand what she said. Wasn't it eventually called Dishroom? Or was it called Dishoom? Maybe it was. She's like, we don't pronounce the R in England. We just call it Dishoom. It's silent here.

Learn the local culture, Sarah. Okay, getting your cars. So honestly, Ali is like, honestly, I have no idea what to do. Maybe a sandwich that looks like a sandwich. I have no fucking idea. He doesn't quite get the idea, the thing. And Gabri's like, I'm going to do a scotch bright. And everyone's like, do you mean like a...

They're like, what? Scotch bonnet, maybe. He's like, do you mean like a? They're like, what? A scotch bonnet, maybe? He's like, yeah, like a sponge. Like, oh, okay. Okay, so they say, you know, he says the thing you use to scrub the dishes and they're like, ah-huh, and so he tells us we did this challenge in Mexico and I did the sea and the flavors were good,

but I was in the middle and then we see the dish, it's actually very pretty, it does look like a sea. And then we see the dish, it's actually very pretty. It does look like a sea. I don't know the lump in it wasn't very sea. Like I don't know if it was supposed to be a whale made out of a fucking, not a broccoli. What do they think? Brustle sprout?

I don't know what it was. But it was creative, it was cool. So I was thinking maybe he's gonna try and do that, but like make a sea sponge, look like a coral or something, look like something, but yeah. No, he might have a dish washing dish sponge. Chefs, for this challenge, we want you to use a household item

that can be stinky, filtered bacteria, and used in close contact with disgusting dishes. And then we'll eat it, thanks. Delicious. So he's telling us why he's doing this. And it's because his first job was as a dishwasher in a restaurant. And I was a dishwasher, hard dishwashers. So he wants to recreate that origin with this dish.

And he's like, this is where I come from. And I wanted to become a chef. And here I am a chef of stars. I was like, that is the cutest thing It's cute. I don't want to do it. I don't love the edge don't love the idea of an edible sponge But it's a cute idea. Yeah, make it make it dish You know make a dish that it make something that will maybe like looks like a plate or like a little dishwasher Like something that looks like a like a little whirlpool. That would be bad

But they did they did this challenge or challenge very similar to this, on Top Chef Masters one year, and they killed it, I remember that season. That was super cool. I was sort of hoping that it would reach those highs in the season. I don't know if it's that. You know, there's always an episode of the season where everybody kind of falls down. And this was that episode of the season. And it's so close to the end, you just want everybody to really kill it. And it's like, yeah, there's a lot of, huh?

So Sarah's like, here's my idea. I'm going to make a motsubull soup and make it look like a tamale. I was like, uh, okay, that's, uh, that's, I was worried. She just got back and you're my favorite at the moment. And why would you do this to me and then she says well? I you know, I did make a massive ball soup in Macau I'm not so vicious. I'm either the finale so I was like and you're doing something you already did come on No, Sarah no Tom decides he's gonna make a caviar seaweed. And I was actually was like,

oh, in my mind I was like, oh, this will do really well because he'll be able to make a caviar. This is dope up his alley. So they start talking about like, I'm all about sustainability, you know? So like a seaweed is a sustainable ingredient and I love sustainability.

That's why this shirt, my mom made it. And now I have five of them and mom, I want 10 more. Like, you know, your mom making your shirt is not necessarily sustainability. It just means that your mom made it. And now I have five of them and mom I want ten more. Like you know your mom making a shirt is not necessarily sustainability. It just means that your mom made a shirt. Unless she made it out of did your mom make the shirt out of the seaweed? Is it? Well, what is she making out of? Maybe she made it out of leftover pie from their fried and I like pie extra

vegansos that they have at that household. It's from my brother Rob. He fell out of clown school and became t-shirts. So it is from that clown. Skilled of that clown. Felt of that clown. Ali is like, well, maybe I'll do something that looks like a plant, but it'll taste like falafel, but it'll be a garden.

I'm like, whoa. What's? I don't know. He's vegetables and make it look like a vegetable garden. Yeah. So they do go to a place and it's called dishroom. That's what I wrote. Oh, it's called, it probably is called dishroom, not dishroom.

Well, I don't know. So we look it up and I feel stupid. Oh, yes, we can. Dishroom. But I think you're right. Dishroom from Bombay with Love. There you go. Yeah.

It is a Bombay restaurant. It pays homage to the Iranian cafes and the food of all of Bombay and attempted to outpace the bustling city. We at London all Bombay. Oh, it's a chain. Wow, wow. I'm mortified for you. Well, please enjoy your dinner at a chain restaurant that also describes

where your career is headed to. The dish room. Back, the dish room. Back to the dish room in my ride. All right, well enjoy Sarah say something, say something touching. And she's like, well, you know, I had a lot of lows this time because I got kids, but God, the high was spanking all that on that lamb. And I'm like, you did spank by a spanker to get spanker, Todd, a shite, sa. Just like clown school. And then Godbrew's like, you know, I hated you guys,

because you guys left me with a lamb. And you know, he was just like waiting weeks to be able to say that. And then Ali's like, you know what? Being here and competing with you guys is a completely different experience, you know? Because here I am, just like a hot guy, not making sandwiches. Being here and competing with you guys is a completely different experience, you know, because here I am just like a hot guy not making sandwiches. It's sort of weird for me and the new guys are just here and I don't know. It's just weird.

So then Gabri gets to pay with his touch master card. And that was very exciting. So then the next day they get to Hatfield House and it's amazing of course. And Tom's like, it looks like a castle. And Buddha's like, it's a house. It's in the title. And then they get to this kitchen. It looks like the kitchen that,

what was the name of that show, the Two Fat Ladies or something? Remember that British show? Remember that British show was like the two sisters it was called like two fat ladies and they would arrive on like a like a Tom Tom sidecar thing and they would cook meals. Oh, I didn't watch that one.

Could you imagine if it's not called two fat ladies? I'm like, more of that show called two fat ladies. I know, the rest of this season is just gonna be me. Like, hi, I'm Ronnie. Well, no, it'm Ronnie. Welcome. No, it's literally a show. I cannot believe you've never seen Too Fat Ladies.

I think I do, I think I do remember that. Yeah, I mean, I do remember something, but then it got count to what happened. No, no, one of them died. But it was like a show in the late 90s, and I was a two sisters. They were, they were in fact, Too Fat Ladies, and they would just cook these crazy British things

in kitchens like these, and one of them was like really old, and one of them was just like her sister, and they're like, today we're going to mimbaking salmon mousse on a plate of butter, wrapped in desiccated butter, deep fried, and then served in the mouth of a butter monster.

And it was just the craziest shit ever. Oh my God, I just got a boner. And it was just the craziest shit ever. I just got a boner. It's crazy. You have to look up the episodes because this shows, it's amazing. Wow. Everyone should.

Yeah, okay, I'll look it up. I need a good new show to watch. I've been watching the Disney Speed Longer, sorry everybody, but I've been watching Tournament of Champions at Guy Fieri show on Food Network. Mm-hmm. Didn't even cook hardly at all on that show.

I'm like, could you do some cooking? The whole thing is like, and next, she is a star in her own right as a chef of this restaurant. And then they cut to a brook. And brook's like, I am a star in my own right of this restaurant and that restaurant. I'm here and I'm ready to fight.

And they're like, okay, now bring the chef's out. She is a star in her own. It's all just the same announcing over. They keep announcing people. Then the person like hypes himself up. And they're like, this is why I'm gonna win. Then they hype them again. Then they hype them up again.

Then they go out there and have to cook with a piece of poo poo and like some hairspray. And that's supposed to be good. And then they go back to hype themselves up some more. And then they have to talk hype themselves up some more. And then they have to talk to Guy Fieri's awkward ass son on the way out. Kid, how can it be season four or five

and you still don't know how to be on camera? Get the fuck off my TV, you nepot-baby. You're not even a good nepot-over, you're a terrible nepot- but that food is, that shit is triggering. I'm gonna look up this two fat ladies. Two fat ladies. I'm gonna put up a picture right now. I'm gonna share, I'm gonna share a picture just so people can see what the two fat ladies. Two fat here, I'm gonna put up a picture right now. I'm gonna share, I'm gonna share a picture

just so people can see what the two fat ladies look like. And you will see these are. Yeah, this is definitely my kind of show. Well, I think this is me and my old roommate Brandy actually going. This is us going through Forest Lawn together. This is literally what the show is. It's like the stage they arrive at a location

on this motorcycle inside car, and then they cook crazy shit. Like crazy old British kind of recipes with lots of things like a beef Wellington and beyond, you know, puddings and crazy crazy shit. Yeah. Okay, well, I'll definitely look that up on whatever streaming channel I'm gonna have on, you know, puttings and crazy, crazy shit. Yeah. Okay. Well, I'll definitely look that up on whatever streaming channel I'm going to have to

pay for now to watch it. Yeah. So, because I've got 10. Already. Okay. So, let's see. In the kitchen. In the kitchen.

It's gorgeous. They're getting started. And all these like, I don't know about this challenge. I've never had the chance to do it, but I'm looking forward to putting the Ali in finale. Oh, oh, oh, oh. He's so cute. Oh my God. Wow.

Hold on. I'm just going to listen. Hello, critics choice. Did that joke get any nominations? Hello, Ali, I'm sorry. You'll just have to be funnier. Maybe you should check in with my dear friend. Hello, one.

There's a bird flying in the kitchen, which is super cute. Oh, I thought it was a butterfly. A butterfly, whatever. Oh, I don't know. I was like, maybe it's just one of those of those kitchens with birds. Because you know how some places, they're like, oh, birds are natural.

Just let them in the kitchen. Because I felt like it was a whimsical moment. And if it was a bird, it was less whimsical to me. It's grosser if it's a bird. It's gross. Because butterflies aren't gonna shit in your stew. You know what I mean? Yeah.

I don't need butterflies. I don't need birds. I hope you're near my Trump lois. Yeah. So by the way, Trump lois, were we expecting some Trump troves? No, that's the object for you. So a Gabri is like, they're gonna be so shocked when they get my tears.

It's a sponge. So then, Ali is doing a full awful garden, and he's describing it as a middle Eastern parfait with two kinds of soil. I'm like, you know, here's what you need. You need to learn how to sell it, because you're not really selling it right now. Okay.

Also, making a soil is not that impressive, I think, because there are a lot of potential shifts, sh-ships. A lot of potential-pronential chefs out there who make, quote unquote, soils, like, I've gone to restaurants where they're like, so what we'll be starting with is a smoked salmon served with a cherry mastarda over a chestnut soil. And I'm like, could you please not name component soil on my dish? Just say it's a crumble. Yeah.

So I'm going to be like, I'm making a soil. It's kind of like, like I'm anti-soilist. Well, I'm anti-soil in foams. I don't care what people say about foams. They're just disgusting spit looking things. I'm never going to get over them. I'm never going to start thinking they're creative. It's liquid that you've purposely shaken up and bubbled that looks like spit. There's no way you're going to convince me otherwise. I'm not eating it.

I'm less annoyed by films, but I'm more annoyed by the pretension behind serving a film, if that makes sense. So, Tom is, so Ollie's working on that, and Tom is like, you know, I think about servings, you know, we often serve coffee on the ship, so I'm going to that and Tom is like, you know, I think about servings, you know, we often serve caviar on the ship, yeah. So I'm going to make seaweed gel and I'm going to use, turn the into caviar by using egg aga, and that, which is also the name of my favorite clown, aga, aga. And I'm going to cook it and make a taste like caviar without it being caviar. The sounds disgusting, Tom.

And you know Tom, I've been rooting for you, but seaweed caviar gross. Also caviar tastes like fish and so to seaweed. So I don't really know who you think is filling here. You're just doing kind of like a vegan version. You're not doing a Trump Law, you're doing a vegan version. Right. We're poor people see,

you know, you're doing like poor people version. But I don't know what you're doing. Yeah, but we're doing a substitution. You're doing a substitution, you're not doing a Trump Law, that's what it is. So then Sarah's talking about her doing her gringo Jewish tamales as she calls them. And she's like, yeah, that's really going to be a mott's evolve. But they're going to think it's a tamale. I'm like, no, you know, not creative, not creative enough. I need more. Just because if you wrap it in something, it's like you're

hiding it. So I don't know. Buddha, meanwhile, I was like, I'm gonna be making it pork, we're like to dip in with a cherry, cherry jelly to make it look like a cherry. And then it's gonna be like a shakura reborn. I'm actually gonna make a shakura reborn. I'm actually gonna make a cutting board made out of cherries. And then the cherries can be made out of cutting board. It's gonna be a little swapper, itue, it's gonna be wild, and it's all gonna go into a mold. Yeah, you know, Buddha is making a whole fucking wedding banquet. He's doing like every dish on the buffet. You know, he's like, this is big.

I'm gonna push myself. So then Ali goes back to his falafel in the shape of turtles. And he's like, gardens always have turtles. And they don't, turtles eat shit in the garden, don't they? Turtle, I mean, a turtle might get into the garden, but I don't think that gardens always have turtles. I think, like a pond, I think, like a pond garden maybe, or like a landscaping thing, but...

I don't think they're looking for something in the shape of a turtle. I could be wrong. I don't know. Like in some ways, I can see a world in which you make a falafel turtle and I go, oh my god, it's a falafel turtle, but I don't think this is the vessel for it. So this, I think this is when it finally hit me watching Gabri Cook that he's actually making a Scotch bread green in the yellow sponge. That's literally

what he's doing. How cute is this fucking guy? I love this guy. I still can't believe it. He's even recapping it. I'm like, what? But he's doing it. And he's removing bread crust and making like little bread bowls to have the sponge hold things. And then he's topping them with all these herbs and stuff to make the theillo, not brillo, but you know, the rough part of the sponge. Yeah. Cute. I, you know, yeah, I was like, oh, that's sort of like a, that's a fun novel idea, but like, I still was like, it kind of doesn't, to me, it doesn't look like a sponge.

It looks like a spongy bread that has an herb topping, if that makes sense. Like, I wasn't like lost in the illusion. It looked completely uncreative. It doesn't look like a spongey bread that has an herb topping, if that makes sense, I wasn't like lost in the illusion. It looked completely uncreative. It doesn't look like a sponge at all. It looks like you're saying sponge, you're making a sponge cake, and then you're putting a thing with a topping on it. It looks like if you're getting,

like you know, like a crispy rice with tuna on it. It sort of had that shape. And later on, Tom says, you would have benefited from like an actual mold to keep it like really precise. And I was thinking the same thing. Like if it was like that, I think it would have sold it a little bit more.

I think it's the story really that sells it. Also, I saw what ended up coming out of the kitchen from everybody and it's all not good. And really the only, the only truly creative ones are Tom and Buddha. Buddha's cherries look like cherries. And Tom's caveat looks like caviar.

Although Buddha also was like, I'm making bread to look like a mushroom. I was like, it looks like bread. That's a stretch. I was like, I was like, I was like, yeah. It just look like a adorable little like, good, good, good, good, good, whatever you call it. It looked like a little mini, uh, muffin pop or something.

What about popover? Popover. Yeah. Yeah. Looks like a little tiny. This doesn't look like a mushroom. It looks lovely, but a mushroom. I'd say to call it there.

Pudding. So, uh, then Sarah decided that she's going to make a, she's going to use molds because she's like, well, everyone else is doing it. So I don't make a mold of a carrot because in Montse make a, she's gonna use molds because she's like, well everyone else is doing it So I'm gonna make a mold of a carrot because in multiple soup there's often carrots floating around So why don't I make a carrot leaf? It looks like it's 1981, but what else is new? Am I right? Let's go for it So the judges come and they're in slow motion of course and Padman is like, wow, what a beautiful place very very modest You know we should have Gale stay here, Gale. Modest enough for you. I mean, listen, some people would call it a castle.

I'm nominated for seven critics' Choice Awards. So, you know, chefs, what makes this difficult is for dishes like this. You need to do a lot of trial and error. Yes. That's what I was saying lots of trial and Gale, you know, just to get the dish the way you want it. So Thomas first and he's making an almond and black garlic puree. Oh wait, he's not first. I'm sorry. We just see him just working on it. And he's still going on about fucking seaweed. Did seaweed like, did see we do a prom? you have did see we don't you at prom like what did see we Also People eat seaweed like thank you for teaching us about seaweed, but people know that seaweed We know about top chef know about seaweed, okay?

Like he's like we get it Tom's planning seaweed to us He's like you know what you can always like have seaweed anywhere So it's like a seaweed is always there for you, you know It's like on the cast of friend always a bit shut up Tom. Okay. No one cares So Sarah is I'm telling a story about serving caviar on the beach like over and over again And also like people are both with a caviar on the beach, you know, I'm like also Disgusting like nobody wants a caviar on the beach Padma's right with her disgust. Oh Padma is a hundred percent correct So Sarah's up first and Padma goes well

It's like gale coming down a hallway. I can smell what it will be Which is obviously in this case a matzebossu not gale simons herself But I'm not supposed I'm not sure I know what it's supposed to be. Is this maybe sushi because Sarah has wrapped her quote unquote tamalee like a sushi roll. Yes, well, you know, tamales you do wrap in the leaf. You know, so I guess. I know, but like, she's circular instead of like kind of, yeah, it does look like sushi.

It's not like a package. You didn't make a little packet with it, so it looks more like a hand roll, right? Yeah, so Hadamau a hand roll, right? Yeah. So Padma looks disgusted by this. She is disgusted by the lack of creativity. And I just thought you just wait, because it's going to be almost an entire round of this with everybody.

So she's like, answer to Molly, just pull the leaf off and it's made with duck fat, poached chicken, and sauce. Tom is like, uh, why is a sauce so acidic? And Padma gives this thing the dirtiest look. She's like, ew, it's acidic broth. I don't like it anymore. So Sarah's like, yeah, well, you know,

there's bone marrow and apple all sauce on the bottom and there's a little masa in it. So it doesn't really answer by it's acidic, but I'm just telling you more stuff. And how her mold is like a little carrot and onion jalais that she's made in the shape of leaves. And when they pour the soup over it, it will melt them and they will kind of mix in with the soup.

Right. And Tom takes a bite and then he looks up at gal like. Huh. My eyes are telling you right now that this, the disappointment I feel is akin to the disappointment I felt when my son announced he was going to become basically a bartender, a quote unquote mixologist, but we all know bartender. You know, you know that feeling? And the judge is like, wow, you guys are, you guys really know each other

because you're talking to each other with your eyes. Yeah, I was like, would you share? Would you share with us what you're all sharing with each other? Like creepy little twins in a corner and Tom's like, well, you know, I think the soup is good. Where it falls apart is the visual. I don't really know the jelly on the bottom was supposed to represent. And Gail's like, well, one of them was celery jowl because you start the base with celery and onion like a mere, we know Gail's stupid. The point is why? Okay, what did they have to do with the tamal, Gail? I mean, God, you know, Gail called me about something rather about her husband and her child the other day. And I said the same thing to her. I said, Gail, what about the

tamal? Gail, you're taking up too much air in this space. A two-star Michelin chef, not quite as good as a three-star, but a two-star has something to say. Jeremy, I thought it was pretty tasty. I really don't. I appreciate it. Quite good. It's quite good. Wow. I think he just got a critics choice award for most quietest voice. Congratulations. I'm sorry. You would have been nominated for critics choice awards, but they've all been little to sleep. Now your voice. Try cocaine. Do they have that here? Hey, you know it's a good TV show that you might want to start watching. It's called The Voice, because I don't think you have

one yet. No one turned their chair around. Thank God you're cute. So, Bona, Bona, Buddha has a lot. I have a Bona. I love this guy, Jeremy. I think he's so cute. Okay, so Buddha is doing like a million components

and then Govery is plating his stuff, but then he splirts the plate with it. And he's like, well, I guess it looks like a dirty plate, so it goes with my concept, right? So then back at the table, someone's like, so what are you guys looking for? Are you looking at the tastes? Are you looking at the look?

And Padma goes both, and Gagas both. And Padma goes, oh, really both both, both. I said both. I said both I said both first yeah so I and I claim Gail's both you know it's like you know what it's like when Gail's trying to decide between a cheeseburger and five pizzas both they both happen for her so I love that Gabri delivers this dish and one of the judges goes it's a dirty plate Did you mean to do this? This is disgusting and Padme goes what was the inspiration and

He's like a sponge and they're like We get a boom and then there's a big long pause and then we get a And then there's a big long pause and then we get a Both we got both sounds So Gabri's like I made for you today Adotee played with a sponge and Gabri's like it's a spun you says it's a sponge to scrub the dishes because I started as a dishwasher And as they start eating and then Gal goes wait a second So this sponge is a sponge. Wow, gal, congratulations.

Can't imagine why you haven't gotten any critics' choice awards. Oh, just just in. Gail Simmons nominated for most slowest person to realize what the hell she's eating on a plate. Congratulations, Gail. So this is also Lemmebrio's Parmesan foam and they thought the idea of the dirty plate really worked here and What's his bones is like the humbleness I can relate I can relate to the humble moment

He just shared with us and girls like I feel like his idea was tongue in cheek bad was like really I feel like everything idea was tongue in cheek. Padma was like, really? I feel like everything is into your cheek, which is kind of the problem, Gail, okay? Gail, I'm surprised there's room for your tongue in that cheek, given that there's a pork chop taking its place at the moment. So now Ali is working, he's trying to make his little garden thing and they serve it and Gail's girls like they now have like the roll call of the components because girls like, oh, it's

a dragonfly. I've got a dragonfly and Patrick goes, you have a dragonfly. That's ridiculous. Wow, poor girls. Talk with a dragonfly. I have turtles. Well, I guess you're just not lucky enough to have one. And someone's like, oh, I've sucked the bottle

in the ocean, I think. And then he's like, it's actually the top view of a garden, different layers like mother earths. And he's like, um, what's the bottom supposed to be? He's like, another type of soil. Red crumbs. Okay, stretch. That's a stretch, sir.

Okay. We don't need to accurate portrayal of every layer of earth. We don't need to get down to like every crust, earth's crust and then the magma, you know. I don't know if that was on the video. The biggest fucking bird I've ever seen just food by my witness. Like a teradactyl out there. Oh, okay. Also, you don't get to just put bread crumbs and call it soil.

That's not soil, sir. It's bread crumbs. Okay, stop it. Yeah. So they don't like it. They don't like those crumbs. They don't, they're not into it. It's too dry. That's not soil, sir. It's bread crumbs, okay? Stop it. They don't like it. They don't like those crumbs. They're not into it. It's too dry, it's weird. And then one of them's like the parts and ice, you know, it's just a lot going on.

And it wasn't precise, but when I closed my eyes, I mean, it had taste. Like gal. Well, here's my problem. It's not enough of a trick. I mean, when you look at a garden, you know, you see the top of the leaves. You see some things. You see the little critters. Maybe you see a joint that your son threw in there after he was done with his shift at

the bar. But you don't see, you don't see the actual radishes there in the soil. I mean, there's cut vegetables. This isn't a garden. This is, this is a travesty, like my son. Yeah. And one of the guys like, this is a travesty, like my son. Yeah, and one of the guys like this is a trick of the eye. There's a trick of the eye and then there's inspired by God and this is inspired by God. And I'm like, whoa, thank you, thank you so much.

That was amazing. Thank you for seeing my point of view. We got and then one guy. So now that they're in between courses and guy goes, every now and then not allowed to look up at the ceiling and Gail's like I know the ceiling is spectacled. Gail stop eating the ceiling. How the hell should get up there? Does anyone know? They're not Chaco Liban's Gail. They're Arches Square. Squares of art. Gail those aren't kick cats. Those are centuries-old paintings so Kit Katz, those are centuries old paintings. So, let's see. So Tom was playing his seaweed caviar shit.

And he's like, I decided to last second to put a lot of sand because it's a beach. So I feel pressured about you. Don't go out on the last challenge before Paris. So then he serves and everyone's just kind of looking at it confused, which at first is good, right? Because it does look like caviar. And Padma's like, does anyone want to take a guess and a guy goes,

smell eggs? That is the rudest shit I've ever heard in my life. How dare you? Well, so Tom goes, it was a kind of coffee, I'll tell the beach. And just so Tom, do you eat caviar on the beach often? You seem a little bit, what's the word? Poir to eat caviar regularly. Actually yes I do. In clown school, the first thing we have to do is eat caviar on the beach. It is a very funny thing for us German clowns.

Well, on my boat we go up boat and we serve caviar with champagne and I think seaweed is a beautiful product that needs to be elevated because underneath is seaweed salad, pearls, anori and seaweed, seaweed, the great saviour of the world. Like what is this post-apocalyptic shit that you keep trying to subs? Shove seaweed down everyone throughout the world is still going, sir. Okay Tom, we know about seaweed. Gales, it's Gales' favorite perfume. Okay, let's eat some of this. So Gales like, well, you know, at the beach, you know, you definitely know those

moments when you get a mouthful of sand, which is like what this is. So that's not great. But I did like his message because it's the humblest seaweed standing in for the most glamorous, which is caviar. Yeah, it's like that time I let you stand on my gel mat. Oh, it's like the time you served lobster on a shoulder pad. So, um, one of the guys, I don't know, it's like this is the most technical, but I find the pearls are gummy. And he's someone's

like, see which be full of umami and a trick of the eye, you need chemicals. And all those chemicals took away from the flavor. And Padma, actually, I love Padma's comment here, because she's like, well, it would be more of a trick if the caviar didn't taste like caviar. Like the whole thing is we want to bite in thinking it's caviar and it's something completely different, not something that is just like reminiscent of caviar but isn't caviar, which is right. That's the difference between a Trump-loy and... That's the difference? You're a Sharploy and a substitution. What's the point? So then, Buddha is in the back making what looks like kind of a little mini-sharkudiri

for everybody, mini-sharkaris. And now he serves. I'm just laughing at what Buddha calls this dish. Yeah. Okay, he goes, this dish is called what's Fadina? Because it's an exploration of what's Fadina. Wow, really creative with your title still, Buddha? Yeah, poetic. So he did a beef and onion that looks like red wine, and then he did a bread, porcini, and a pulpet, quote-unquote cherries, anapic cateil croquette, which is really a black truffle,

don-don-don, and girls like, wow, easy. Wow, this felt almost like a still life for me. Oh yeah, it's like when you sit on your couch on Friday and don't get up for three more weeks, Gail, am I right? Or is Gail calls it life? Or is Gail calls it her dating life? The gale calls it her dating life. Oh, so Jeremy's like, I can relate to this as a chef. You just pull things out of the fridge late at night and you eat that. That's what that tastes like. You know who else does that? Literally everybody, okay Jeremy?

Get your finger out of your butt. I love that the get your finger out of but you quiet hot man who's very talented. I have no idea at the point. I love that the travel tasted like a potato cricket. I bid into it. I was like, wow, it's a potato Better than a jelly stupid sand pompa loony bomb us whatever your name was Yeah, one of the guys is like wow, this was so good. I even tried to eat the toothpick thinking it was something Oh, oh gales done that before I'm purpose actually. I'm telling you put a little chocolate on anything she'll scarf it right down She just calls it tough pocket so pat She calls it a colon pick she said a few of her

Wow So pat me's like what do we think about the meal overall and they're like well We think that they all did a great job. That's nice. Now tell us what you really think. It was terrible. There we go. Yeah. You know, because I can't really say it,

but everybody sucks except Buddha, basically. It's what happens. Like literally everything sucks. The only other person that could come up to compliment, come up with a compliment for it was Gabri, who made a sponge made out of like a sponge kind of cake, which is lame. I'm sorry. We all know it. So we get to the judges tape. Oh, Jeremy says at the end of the day, it's food and food should be delicious.

It's like, God, I want to date you, but I also want to divorce you. You know what I mean? Wow. I guess that's probably what the Michelin judges said when they I want to date you, but I also want to divorce you. You know what I mean? Wow. I guess that's probably what the Michelin judges said when they decided not to give you a three stars, huh? Anyway, thank you all for dining with us. I'm sorry, I never got any of your names and never looked you in the eyes. We have to decide who's going to go to Paris right now, where I will be going. Let's go to judges' table.

Now, chefs, I have to say it was a very tough challenge for all of you. It was like taking gal brush shopping. Listen, not everyone's gonna make it. Gabri and Buddha, and I'm only saying Gabri because we had to have somebody besides just saying Buddha at every single challenge at this point. You're moving onto Paris somewhere somewhere Sarah might not ever see. Congratulations. Wow. This is team

Gale sleeping bag. I mean team Wellington. How does it feel? And Gabri's like, Oh, it feels great. Have you ever been to Paris? Surely you're not as pathetic as Sarah. And he's like never in my life. What? I could have spent an entire season making fun of you too. Sorry, we have to eliminate you on the spot at this point. At first, I thought they were saying you guys are in the middle, like you're safe. Now the other three get up here. And I was like, how did bootle lose this? Are they just sick of rewarding boot up? But he didn't, he won it. Or he's a bit spoiler alert. I went to it right.

Right. So, Gale's like, oh, that wine, that wine quote unquote, that was my favorite bite. Well, it wasn't a bite. That was my favorite gulp of the day. Or let Gale likes to call it a bite. Literally how she eats. It's like having dinner with Pac-Man.

Literally how she eats. It's like having dinner with Pac-Man. It's like imagine Pac-Man fighting a diet coke. That's gal with soup. So yeah, every time he's like talking about his dish and Pac-Man goes, I thought it was a very clever trick. Since, you know, I did say you can use any old object. I mean, I thought at that point you're just just gonna make something that looks like Gail's face, but, anyway, I think you fit the brief perfectly. And Jeremy's like, it struck me as a scene from a renaissance painting, very well done. And Buddha's like, he's like crying.

And basically, he won. Okay, so let's get the losers up here. Congrats, Buddha. The Padma is so bored. And this is the fourth in a row for Buddha. I mean that guy. He is out of control. Yeah. Buddha, we will. We will see you in a city that Sarah's never been to Paris. Okay, so losers get up here. Do you understand what illusions are? Why are you so dumb? Okay, Tom? Have you ever made this dish before?

Are you embarrassed as a chef right now that you served this flavorless, not caviar on sand that tasted actually a little bit too much like sand? I had it in my head and I was in a seaweed farm in Norway and I loved the fact of sustainable Well, guess what? I don't want to eat a recycling bin either. So take this out of my face, please. You know what would be really sustainable? Your silence. Okay, go away. So Jeremy's like, I love the idea of the, I love the idea, but for me the flavors didn't come across in a balanced and tasty way. I was like, oh, oh, my, Jeremy gets bound and dirty. My main issue is that it didn't taste different

enough from what it looked like. If you're trying to fool me that it's caviar, then you shouldn't have made a taste like the ocean at all. What the hell, it's wrong with you. I'm a critics-choice nominee. And I host a chap who'd call them, thank you so much. Sarah, how did you find it? And Sarah's like, oh, you know what?

Look, it's not my thing. It's not really my thing. Well, guess what? Look, it's not my thing. It's not me. It's not really mine. Well, guess what? We didn't have a pop-tart challenge because it was the almost finale challenge. So sorry, Sarah. Germ is like, yours is the dish that I could eat again and again. Oh, that's like a with pine cones.

Never take her to a park. I thought it was a sushi-bosera, stupid. And Tom's like, you know, you're you're not following through on a side of the hand. I mean, what is the jelly and what did I have to do with tomorrow? And so I was like, yeah, I saw people doing tricks. I wanted to do a fucking trick. I don't know. I don't fucking know. It's true because if it's supposed to be a tamale, why do you have very obvious visual clues to multiple? See, that's supposed to be what's the deal with the very obvious visual clues to multiple? See, that's supposed to be... What's the deal? With very obvious visual clues?

She's a malleys. I mean, you got a mere poise. I don't have tamale. Does it make any sense? So, Ali, what is a breadcrumbs supposed to be? And I was like, oh, I wanted you to eat it all together. And Gagas, and do you think that worked texturally? You know, it's like whenever I say to G gale, when she gets out of the bathroom, there

are bread crumbs on the bottom. What's the point? The gales, the pat was like, those bread crumbs tasted almost raw, like they weren't seasoned enough. And Jeremy's like, well, flavor wise, I love how you express your culture, but it sucks. I'm like, okay. So when Tom's like, I mean, I like turtles, even though I've never seen one in my garden,

but you don't see vegetables in a garden. The quinoa looked like quinoa. I mean, you could have gone further. You could have gone further. Well, one of you is not going to go any further. Like, to Paris, buy stupid, we're going to talk about you behind your back. Everyone's stupid, right? Oh, sorry. You're still here. Okay. Hurry, hurry. I think the only dish I

would want to eat again is every dish you've ever eaten in your entire life. Gal, we know. Sarah's. And so basically they talk this shit over. We hear all the same stuff. And then it's time for the Tom. Oh my God, are you okay, babe? Oh no, Bueller. Oh my dear friend, my dear friend Bueller just got stepped on by accident. Or Dog is already limping around here.

And I just, Are you okay, can you? Oh, Bueller. Literally who sits right under the wheel of a chair? I mean, Bueller, he's saying, I'm sorry. I'm sorry you're supposed to be sitting on the sofa, not under a chair, Bueller. I would love to help you, but I'm about to deliver a Tom Jaina monologue. So you're going to have to wait.

You know, chef's challenge was difficult. You had to make something that looks like something else, but that isn't that something else. Like, you tell us you're going to present a culinary feast made possible by a years of training and the dreams of your father and you serve an espresso martini in a plastic glass. I don't know why I'm crying right now, Padma. Padma? Tom, please pack up your clown shoes and leave. Thank you.

Shythe, So Tom was just happy to be selected, but you know, it sucks. I like Tom, but you know, it seemed like he could have gone earlier too, because he messed up a lot, but also Gabri, but I don't know where I want more in the finale, but I do love a Tom. I'm happy that Sarah made it.

And Sarah's like, see you guys in Paris. And she like runs off. She's like, she points, she's like, see you in Paris. And she does a double point and runs and does a jump and like, click of the heels and just keeps running. And she's like, I'm so loving. Good luck to you Sarah.

Well, we'll illuminate a path few to the channel and see you there in three months. That's what I'm talking about. That's what I'm talking about. Well, that means we're almost over, but not done yet because next week is still not the finale. So I guess there's two more or three more. Let's see if we're down to four. So we have to eliminate the fourth and the limit looks like we've got three more episodes

left. Is it always two people in the finale? Sometimes it's three. Sometimes it's three. So it's good. Okay, well, it's two or three episodes left. So yeah, the season's winding down. So everyone, thanks so much for being here and love.

It snowballed into a full-blown alleged feud. But it doesn't seem like fans are letting up anytime soon. Despite both Selena and the Bieber's making public statements denying any bad blood.
