MONDO EXTRAS

Colicchio tries to regain control of the conversation, but Dave is still really upset that he can't say anything without Tiffani shutting him down. Colicchio wants to ask Tiffani something. "What's up, chef?" she asks brightly. Hate. Does she think Dave should be in the final three? "Of course not," Dave says bitterly. "Yeah, I think Dave should totally be there," Tiffani says calmly. Ken laughs that Tiffani's a "shitty little liar" and throws an empty water bottle at her before dissolving into weird cackling laughter and unintelligible Irish brogue. I didn't know soccer hooligans could also be chefs. After Colicchio asks if Dave feels that he has more to prove because he came to the kitchen later in life; Dave says something about needing to validate himself and yes, the ten thousand dollars would be great, but "It's not about that, it's about... people." And he's starting to lose it. I have this fantasy that every time I commit a culinary crime, like separating my sauce, burning steaks, or using too much salt, Dave the Crying Chef is going to come by and make me feel very bad about what I did. Dave regains control and says, "Crying Chef is not coming." Miguel announces that he's certainly gone home and cried after tough kitchens. Cynthia also goes off about how no other art form touches all the senses, so it's a very emotional art form.
