You should have seen how the bromance was going on Twitter!  Tylor actually made some kind of sexy comment to his fellow chefs and followed it up with "no homo on that last tweet":https://twitter.com/#!/TyLo…

That's a bit harsh.  After all, Richie had stayed up all night working on the chili, and you could tell how depressed and exhausted the Black Team was when Padma said, "You're time starts now!" and they couldn't even muster up the strength to run to the kitchen.

Nice callback to TC Just desserts…I had to rewatch that scene about fifty times because I couldn't believe how quickly that so-called chef dissolved into tears over some stupid candies.

I think they're laying the foundation for Nucky to marry Margaret.  He's already asked the kids to call him "Dad" and there's the other small issue of her being called in to testify against him.  If he makes her the next Mrs. Thompson, she couldn't be called as a witness against him (unless she chooses to, which seems…

I saw that too…it looked like half his face should have been gone, then suddenly it's just a little shoulder wound.

But you knew it was going to go badly for the hitman…the Butcher is too hardcore to go down that easily.  I don't understand why the guy went through all the trouble of pretending he needed chicken so he could get the door open…why didn't he just shoot straight through the glass?

Best part of that scene was the sign on the wall of the butcher shop that said "Fresh killed meat".

Just poor judgment…maybe they were under a lot of stress, but these guys aren't messing around, and there is some strategy to avoiding the chopping block.

The show's already established that Miami is where old serial killers go to retire…case in point, The Tooth Fairy.

Conspires to get high-profile politicians to resign: SEXTER

I'm surprised they didn't just cast Shia LeBoef and call it a day.  Oh, wait, they will be using him in the new Doctor Who movie, I'm sure….not as a companion, but as The Doctor.

Card actually said that "Speaker for the Dead" was never meant to be an Ender's Game sequel, and I think he might have written a version of it first, but his publishers pressed him so he repurposed it to include Ender.  I've read all of the Ender's novels, even the inferior "Ender's Shadow" series about Bean, and I…

Spot on…after all, who wants to end the first movie in the franchise with a shocking twist that sets up the next film and respects the source material.  The theatre where I saw this was full of fanboys who literally gasped in shock when the credits rolled and it was clear that we were not going to get a post-credits…

Actually, if you want to be pedantic, they are properly called "panserbjorner".

They really screwed the pooch on Compass.  They had to strip away any anti-religious overtones or Nicole Kidman refused to be in the film.  Then, they were so convinced that they had an epic franchise on their hands that they didn't actually end the film at all, planning to have the big climax begin the next film.…

I listened to the "Ender's Game" audiobook that included a special discussion with Orson Scott Card about why it's been taking so long for this movie to get made, and his number one issue with the folks trying to option the story is that they wanted to make Ender 16 and have him start up a teen romance with Petra.…

Guess she was just middle of the pack…I can't even recall what team she was on.

Well, they aren't there to make friends, let's not forget.

What's she crying for in the preview?  There's no crying at the rodeo!  Not even the Gay Rodeo!

Maybe they are just saving the real snark for later…the drama in this episode was Shrimpgate and the tortilla controversy.
