I am now totally tired of Robert. Couldn't stand the way he blamed his partner for the sausages. I have made sausage before. Like Ramsey said, it is a team effort. You both have to work together for it to work right. If the casing is splitting, there are two things wrong. Yes, he is not taking it fast enough BUT it also means Robert is cranking too fast. Teamwork isn't "This is what i'm doing so you'd better keep up".

Then he throws a freakin hissy fit during service and even Ramsey thinks he is too loud. Time to go home. raspberry

I'm now giving Robert another chance...very emotional show tonight, at least before the so called chefs hit the kitchen.
Sheese, what am I watching. The guys did good, but those gals, what a disaster... shakehead

Totally agree. What a freakin mess! Ramsey is right. The guys are beating them with 2 men injured.

Suzanne... good Lord! Even I heard the woman say GRILLED lobster tail. Plus, they are talking about bringing in friends of a marine, which probably means more MARINES. These guys want steak. Not shi shi pooh pooh stuff.

I had to wonder if they even let Robert in a plane (they didn't show any clips of him in the air). I'm sorry but the guy is huge. I don't know if he would fit in one of those cockpits. That was one "reward" where I would have been staying on the ground. I'm fine to fly in a straight line but don't think I could handle all those flips.

Can't understand Tek's problem. A chef that can't cook steak? Must just be a pressure thing. Kudos to Whoopie for standing up for herself at elimination. She has sucked in the past but didn't deserve being nominated last night (her voice is really starting to grate on me though).

I'm also thinking the women's team has too many leaders. The guys seem to be willing to (momentarily) give over leadership and take direction from each other when the situation calls for it.

Oh, and I disagree with Jim (was that his name?). I don't think he would have completed that steaks as well without the support from Kevin. It's easy to say you didn't need him after he has already bailed you out.

I was very impressed with how well the guys worked together last night. I'm not surprised by the girls, it was noticeable from the start that they were just all to catty and wanted to fight more then cook.

And how do you not understand southern to mean soul food and that grilled LOBSTER does not mean grilled shrimp.

I had some reservations when I saw what the guys had to do for the prep tonight. I wonder if Robert had the option of not doing the physical part. At the least he should have gotten off and said it was causing him pain. I'm rather tired of all of them. Not a real stand out in the mess.

I wondered about Robert doing the physical part! I still think Ramsey brought him back because he felt bad, but really not fair if Robert couldn't just say no.

As far as the rest of the show, I have to agree with you phoenix...it's one big mess. Not even one I can get behind!

Anybody here watch Tob Chef on Bravo. It starts the 19th. I'm going to give it a try. It has to be better then listening to Ramsey...to much yelling, but he really is a nice guy! To bad all I see is his swearing!
