During the part near the end where the chefs are sitting around the table while the judges deliberate - Michael (I think) asks Hubert how he came up with one
of the dishes...could've sworn Hubert replied "I smoked last night" (as in he inhaled...) :-D

Yeah, Michael was a douche tonight, but he also said something to the effect that he thinks the other chefs were more daring, he couldn't give up control.
I fully believe that if it weren't a competition, he wouldn't have been such a dick.
Oddly, I always thought Hubert would be the biggest prick of the bunch.. and he's totally not. Should be a very interesting finale. |

Mike was def a douche to the other chefs. I can understand not wanting to give up control but he started barking out orders and being a dick at the start of
the interviews. You can be a control freak and work well with others at the same time. Wouldn't be shocked if that bad cut of dessert was sent out to the
judges intentionally.
I'm hoping Hubert wins it all now but I would be cool with Bayless as well. |

I LOVE HUBERT. There, I said it again. What a friggin rock star. I love how he took Antonia and Elia and even Spike. Antonia is a workhorse. His stuff looked a
THOUSAND times better than everyone else's crap. I am sure Bayless cooks well, but I am bored with the Mexican food ALL THE TIME.
Hubert's food looked so good, I wanted to go thru the screen. FUCK MIKE. WHO CARES how he pronounces his stupid name? I knew he was gonna pick Fabio, tho. Kudos to Spike for telling him that he already knew how to slice carrots. |

Hubert is leagues ahead of all these masters. Not only is he an amazing chef with the most experience, but he is such a great mentor, too. Every week he
takes on the challenges with a smile and shows no ego and when he has little slip-ups, he shrugs his shoulders and moves on with a great attitude. Just seeing
the way he handled recruiting his sous chefs last night compared to Michael really shows the difference between master and just a notable chef. Hubert better
win this thing.
Hubert's buffet looked amazing and I'm so glad he got 5 stars from all three judges. I was actually pissed when they revealed the other diners only gave him 3-1/2 stars. WTF? How was his food only worth 3-1/2 stars? At least he was still able to pull out a win in the end though, because it was deserved. Bummer about Anita, but she is obviously not cut out for this type of competition. She's not good at thinking on her feet. So, we have French cuisine vs. Mexican cuisine vs. Americanized Northern Italian cuisine for the finale. I would love to be on the panel for that tasting. Hubert FTW with Rick as runner-up and Michael to be humiliated, please. |

I can guarantee the food won't come out of a vending machine for the final challenge.

I know Michael was douchy last night, but damn, there's still something about him I like. The fact that I think deep down inside he knows he's a
douche? Because I probably would be a control freak douche as well in that situation (ie trying to get to the final and win an extra ten thou for my charity)?
Cool finale since I really don't care with any great passion who wins. But did anyone else think the Top Chef contestants were also douchy? And not just
Dale. I think Spike was a douchy. I think whoever said "we're all accomplished chefs" was douchy. No, you're all accomplished SOUS chefs
at this stage of your career, imho. Michael was douchy, but I'm not sure he deserved the level of nasty comments he received. Or perhaps a lot was edited
down? I dunno. I still like him and glad he made it into the final instead of Anita.

Michael can afford to be a douche. He has several accomplishments that neither Dale nor Spike have had. He is in it to win it and he wants talent and anyone
who works in kitchens knows there are more of Michael's than Hubert's. Gordon Ramsay anyone? Could you see Gordon on this show?
Frankly Hubert is just talented beyond belief... Rick Bayless has a limited repetoire and so does Michael and that is their downfall. I think had he not been so nervous it would have been great to see Wily in the final he is very American and different but c'est la vie... |

I still love Michael. <3 and Hubert. <3
I think it seems Hubert deserves the win. I'm meh about Rick, he is likable but not lovable. Fuck Anita, she sucked and then cut Jamie loose. |

chelleforrupert wrote:Yeah, I didn't quite understand that shit either. My maiden name is a bitch to pronounce (it's 23 letters long; gotta love them ol' German surnames!) and my married name is just as difficult (too many letters that really don't go well together). At school, none of my teachers ever got it right for roll call that first day of class. Hell, I used to just wait for them to pause during roll call because 19 out of 20 times, it was because they were staring, stunned, at my last name trying to figure out how to say it. It never bothered me that most people can't pronounce it. So what? I mean, really.. like everyone's gonna know how someone's goofball ancestor from 5 generations back decided to Americanize their fucked up old European surname? Oh please. 
Plus there was that "What's my name?" "Michael." "What do you call me?" "Chef." bullshit that Michael pulled on all his people too. Geez.. Dude needs to take a lesson from Hubert and Rick. Both of them ended up at the top and both of them worked as partners with their "hired help". Michael and Anita ended up dead last and both of them were control freaks that wouldn't let their sous chefs help in any truly meaningful way. |

My take...
He wanted to know if they were familiar with him/his style of cooking. I'm guessing they were not big admirers if they couldn't get his name right. That or he just likes screwing with people's heads. |
