I missed the losing team facing the judges. What happened?
Don't I get a cookie?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
What would be cool would be a show based on that concept, teams given a certain number of weeks to create a restaurant.
There is a show sort of like that on BBCA right now called Last Restaurant Standing. Couples start restaurants and each week are told how they can improve and every other week one is closed until one couple is left with a real restaurant. I'm wondering how long it will take for it to be brought over to the US.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
What happened?
The boys went apeshit for a minute, they said Lisa's cake tasted better, and Nikki was all, "I was in no way responsible for any of this."

Lisa's cake tasted better than Stephanie's?

That's what the judges said.
I think they sent the right person home, since she was ridiculous in her avoidance of responsibility, but I was seriously hating everyone on that team tonight.
OTOH, I loved that Richard gave his win to Stephanie (and that she said they'd split the prize).

Oh, and how about the absurd (ricockulous?) hoyay between Andrew and Spike that opened the show over Mark being sent home?
ETA, not to be confused with any OTHER Andrew and Spike who might have been discussed on this board at some point.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Word. Saying "I'm not in charge" may well be the surest ticket to getting kicked off the show.
That team was trouble to begin with -- all the "Does Not Play Well With Others" was in one place. But Nikki started off well, and everybody seemed happy to follow her lead. Then, when she threw that aside, no one stepped into the vacuum, causing trouble to spiral, and that space got filled with personality disorders on parade.

If Spike makes a blooming onion next challenge, I'll quit from self-defense.

Wrod. Can you imagine if it had been Andrew on this team and Nikki on the other (since Richard took charge). I do give Lisa props because I think she realized taking on the cake would at least get her off on her own for the duration, even if it was ginormous challenge, and it being the groom's cake instead of the bride's wouldn't have been quite as big a problem if something went wrong.
