Shrimp Takes The Cake

Last night was a bit of a tease. It wasn’t the REAL finale of Hell’s Kitchen but rather the first of a two parter. Not much happened either. They started designing their own versions of Hell’s Kitchen(Bonnie is going really ecclectic and modern with a lot going on; Rock is going very austere, black and white). And while in the midst of this they get whisked away to Vegas by Ramses.

I think I’m a little tired of the classic “isn’t-this-house/apartment/hotel room-amazing?” shot. It’s used in just about every reality tv show these days and I think it’s become hack. We get it. It’s really nice. Yay. Get on with it. In the beginning of Real World, we were impressed. But no more. We’re over it.

Then they have the big challenge which is to cook their signature dish to a bunch of the best chefs in Las Vegas. Bonnie narrowly wins. But I think there was some hanky panky in the judging. She was winning handily when a whole slew of the last few judges voted for Rock. And they kept saying that he had to win or else he’d be out. I think the judges knew this and voted accordingly to add to the drama. Considering that the last few judges were the last two winners of Hell’s Kitchen! Seems a little fishy don’t it?

Anyway, Bonnie won anyway for her shrimp and lobster pasta. That means she gets to pick first for her team. She picks Jen. Rock picks Brad. And then the interesting times begin. Instead of picking Julia who’s clearly next best, she picks Melissa the shrewish L.I. chick. Meanwhile, did I mention that Julia is in tears the entire time that she’s here? So I kind of don’t blame her. Rock picks Vinny instead of Julia as well. Finally, Bonnie picks Julia and Josh is left to be last for Rock.

The first time that Julia shows some b*tchiness is shown when she says she’s rooting for Rock. I guess Julia believes in bros before hos too. A lot of people are saying that it’s going to be Rock hands down. But I don’t think so. I think the nanny steals it. She’s got a better line, plus she doesn’t have the Rock Rage issues.

Hopefully, Rock doesn’t have risotto on the menu or else I forsee problems. Stay tuned for next week!
