OK, we're eliminating someone now, right? I mean, after five minutes of previouslies and then the opening credits. I haven't really talked about the credits very much, but I think it's kind of hilarious that just about all the chefs are fighting the robots, except for Susan, who just seems to be watching things blow up around her.

Anyway, when we eventually continue (and rewatch the last few seconds that THEY JUST SHOWED IN THE PREVIOUSLIES A MOMENT AGO), Ramsay tells Jeremy to get his ass up there, for serving up a sample plate, something he's never seen happen before. Jeremy saunters out and owns up to doing something stupid, not that all the evidence to the contrary here has shaken his opinion of himself as a great chef.

Anyway, Ramsay congratulates Blue for winning in spite of Jeremy, and tells them their reward is Ramsay getting rid of him. Which is nice and all, but I'm sure they'd probably rather have a day on the beach.

There are tears shed and apologies made on the Red team, who were at each other's throats when selecting their nominees. Nedra seems particularly shaken, not to mention angry at Amanda for being keen to nominate her, but they hug it out.

And now it's on to prep for tonight's dinner service, and ... OK, I've recapped not just The Bachelor and The Bachelorette and Bachelor Pad and Bachelorettes in Alaska (look it up) but I don't know if I can handle Mary here nattering on in her mouse-squeak voice about her period being three days late. She knows the cameras are on her at all times, right? "I have to pee so bad," she informs everyone. "I can't worry about another bitch's problems," says Nedra, bless her. Mary seems to want to be pregnant, although she doesn't know what that means in terms of the competition. You ... finish it? What is this, the 19th century? She goes into the bathroom, pees on a stick, and comes back out to announce that she is definitely not pregnant, which is met what I will charitably describe as aggressive indifference.

Over in Blue, Dan seems to be the new Jeremy, which Michael (no fan of Dan's already) questioning his food knowledge and experience. Barrett also thinks Dan doesn't know what he's doing, which is backed up by a montage of Dan asking basic kitchen questions.

During a break, Mary wanders into the kitchen where the Blue team is hanging out, and mistakes what looks to be sincerity from Zach over the way she fought elimination for insults, and winds up basically telling the rest of Blue to fuck off. She slams the door to the bedroom, and Nedra eventually comes storming out to tell Blue to lay off Mary. Barret thinks the Red team is cracking. He's pretty cocky for a guy on a team that loses members even when they win challenges.
