Episode Report Card Monty Ashley: B+ | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Screw Your Courage to the [BLEEP]ing Post

Anyway, both teams are sent off to pick two candidates each. They're probably going to be Justin and Clemenza from the blue team and Kimmie and Tiffany from the red team. But we're only 39 minutes in, so let's watch the negotiations!
Back to the dorms. Justin nominates Robyn for the squash blossoms. Robyn says they were his dish, and he didn't help her. She says he set her up for failure by not making all the blossoms the same size. Clemenza tells us that he wants to send Justin home because of some half-baked (ha! Cooking term!) idea of strategy.
So the final tally on the blue team is that Justin and Brian voted for Robyn, Robyn voted for Justin, and Clemenza wasn't going to vote for himself, so the final two are Justin and Robyn.
Dana votes for Tiffany because of the potatoes and Barbie for no clear reason. Kimmie's reason for voting for Barbie is that she was slow during prep. And she had an attitude. Dana blames the "looks" Barbie gives people. Barbie objects to this in an interview in which she gives some hilarious faces. Tiffany says she doesn't care, but she votes for Kimmie and Barbie. Christina votes for Tiffany and then falls into a bunch of bleeping.
Oh, we're back to the blue team. I thought they were done, but Justin still has a vote to give and decides on Clemenza. Clemenza starts babbling excuses.
That was confusing and accomplished nothing. Now everyone's down in the kitchen for the elimination. Gordon asks Brian for the first nominee. It's Robyn for having trouble in appetizers. Robyn complains that she asked for help before service and Justin wouldn't help her. Justin says he doesn't want to deal with turmoil and interrupts her a lot. Brian's second nominee is Clemenza for having "a few hiccups on fish." Clemenza makes that popping noise you get by pulling your finger out of your mouth and says, "Whoopee-[BLEEP]ing-doo!" Right in the middle of Brian's explanation! This guy's classy. He waves his hands and bugs out his eyes and objects to everything.
Gordon: "Oh, blue team. Oh, it hurts."
Christina presents Tiffany because the potatoes made them stop. Sure. The second nominee is Barbie, which seems to surprise Gordon. Because he does not care what someone does during prep. He has never cared about that. He specifically asks if Barbie was chosen over Kimmie. She was. See, Gordon was expecting the people I listed. I can't prove it, of course, but I'm pretty sure.
Gordon has Tiffany, Barbie, Robyn, and Clemenza step forward to defend themselves. Tiffany says she's a valuable team player and she doesn't mind going into the kitchen every day. Then she cries. Barbie says she's been a team player. Gordon points out that the rest of her team wants her out. Clemenza is in trouble for lying about the fish. He claims he didn't understand the question. He feels he had the least of the problems on the team. Robyn also claims to be a team player, even though everyone on both teams hates her. She says she can come in tomorrow and work with the blue team. She looks around for support, and Justin shakes his head.
