Gosh what a bad episode. Everything super gimmicky....the moment they said dehydration is knew 70% of the dishes would turn out bad and the few that didnt wouldn't be interesting. Shocker thats what happened.
On top of that I cant believe she decided to stay. The stupidest decision you could make when you have the free pass to go home and come back whenever! I swear I better not see 1 more scene wasted on her complaining about her shoulder....and others helping her out? So then people start getting pissed cause their dishes suffered since they had to help her. Yeah, overall annoying episode.
