Episode Report Card Jacob Clifton: C- | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT One Flea Spare

She again sings the most boring song in the world, and I think about how it's the last time I'll get to hear her voice, which is sad. She is a little flat sometimes, because she's sad, but she really puts her back into it. We focus on Carrie looking bummed or dead, and then she notices that a camera is on her, so she jerks her eyes away from the monitor and onto Jessica, then back to the monitor and her own face, and then away again; it's very cute, honestly, and at the very end she purses her lips a little more, and it's hysterical how long it took her to process that whole deal, but I think she's probably at least a little bummed, and you can see obviously that Anwar is. And I know I am, because I really liked her, and I'm pissed at America to a certain extent, but seriously, you vote the Idol you deserve, and I'm not emotionally invested enough to not kind of thrill to the idea that several weeks from now Carrie or Constantine or Scott will prove to the world what they've secretly thought about us all this time, and besides, that was the most boring song I think I've ever heard. There's this part where it gears up to jump to a higher key, but then…doesn't, really. Letdown. Kind of like tonight. More thread title shenanigans next week, but until then: Seacrest out.
