Top Chef fans enter predictions here! Who is leaving tonight?

[davsand]

Tonight they will send two chefs home. Who are you expecting to watch pack their knives?

I'm hoping it is Tiffany and Mike.


Your opinion?

1. I think it's time for Mike I. to go

I like Carla, Antonia, and Richard.

2. I'd be surprised if Mike stayed.

The rest are good, but I also think it might be Tiffany. Didn't realize two were going home tonight!

3. So... (spoilers inside)

Were you surprised at the outcome? I wasn't -- because it seemed every chef was in top form tonight...

4. No.

It was only fair with so many excellent dishes. It was a very, very good episode. One of the best ever, IMO.

5. (spoiler inside)

They always include "tells" in their editing, and showing the part about the family member who asked if five have ever gone to the finals was this episode's tell.

The confirmation came when, at judges table, they all were really enthusiastic about their decision, which could only mean that everybody was staying.

I think it was the correct choice, good for them.

6. spoiler....I was surprised...

but in a good way. Usually there is some nit-picky detail that trips someone up and I always wondered if there would be a time when it was just too close to call. The way they raved about the dishes made me think this would be an impossible judge's table. Sounds like everyone did an outstanding job.

7. I thought Richard was going to have a heart attack!

Good decision, judges! I would have hated to see anyone go home.

8. I almost turned the TV off when Padma said:

Richard, pack your knives and....

So glad I kept watching :)

9. That just seemed unnecessarily cruel to me.

Richard is one of the most hyper chefs on there--it seems like he's dying a hundred times over during every judge's table. Even my husband commented on it...

10. I actually yelled when I thought they were sending Richard home...

...then it was like, what? He's staying? Okay.

If the only complaint of the entire evening was tough corn, then hell yes, send them all on through. Trouble is, next week's quickfire might also double as an elimination. Hard telling.

11. It really looked like he was ready to tell the judges off before he caught himself and thanked them
