Elia's definetly there laughing on the floor. Sam I *think* says I can't man I can't. Ilan says after cliff lets him go, go apologize to him man.

Funny that Ilan said, go apologize to him man.
Well, actuially, we know that Cliff went after him and started pelting him with chocolates (talk about a waste!!!...he shold be shot!...for wasting chocolates!). As I understand it, Marcel was sleeping on the couch in a common room...the brat pack came in and Cliff went into his bully-senior role, Sam sat laughing and Ilan was filming while rubbing up against the couch where Sam was lounging and laughing (alledgedly, people!) and Elia was hiding in the next room on her knees laughing (no prayer this time)...then, after bully Cliff let Marcel go, (all sing now..LET MY PEOPLE GO!), MArcel heads to one of the bedrooms..the one with the double doors...goes in, closes the door, goes to bed...that's when I AM THAT MAN Sam tells Cliff to follow and then Cliff comes in with the chocoates and starts throwing.... only then does Marcel get up and go to the bathroom since it is the only room with a lock and the only place h ecan go to get away from these FREAKS. (all sing,,get back, get back, honky cats!)

Why didn't Marcel get kicked off for assulting the cameraman?

I will let you know after I finish listeing to this ridiculous interview with Tom C. afterall, my name is Daverocks, so all these comments about dave are incredibly hurtful I love it that he thought dave was there on LUCK! well, he worked his butt off at the wedding, winning the respect of his teammates, the napa chefs loved his food, etc. jeez!
TomC is an ass. Dave was much better than most of the chef in Season 2.

Yeah, I think you are righjt about the whol eseason thing....here's the full quote from the Honolulu-Star ...
Wong is guarded about his experiences as a judge -- the producers are leery of revealing any surprises -- but he did say he is a fan of the show and has been watching since the first season.
"As a professional you try to figure out who is going to make it," he said -- and he did agree in many cases with which contestants were bounced off.
"Somebody got let go because of dishonesty, somebody got let go because of bad attitude, somebody got let go because of not using salt and pepper and not tasting the food before serving it ..."
The same thing would happen in his own restaurant, Wong said. "If somebody's dishonest with me, they're gone. If somebody's got a bad attitude with me, they're gone. ...
"Yeah, this is justice. It gave the show credibility."

Just rewatched the show. In the scene where Ilan says lets all get out of here and go to hawaii.
Very short clip so try thiss Place it on pause and move forward slowly
He is noticeably limping and his right leg is dragging behind him. His right foot is at a strange angle.. Also his voice sounds like he is in pain
Here it is

My last theory is after Elia shaved her head. Ilan scooped up her hair and made a Sam wig for himself., slapped on some tibetan prayer beads, make a few sharpie tattoos and wore his " I am that Guy" Nightie to bed "
To tell you the truth, I always figured the geek was trying to walk like 'COOL DUDE' and failed miserably! lol
Quote:
Ok, I'm delurking for the very first time. I have a question, though, based on my finally rewatching this horrible episode. When Ilan says in confessional "and then we thought, since it was our last night, we'd ask to borrow a camera ..." and a few other bits that are clearly discussing the filming themselves as past tense, he still has hair. Has anyone else noticed that?
Oh, and I definitely noticed the edit to cut Elia out of the shot with Marcel stomping off. Too late. Goobers.
Fantastic recaps, Keckler - keep 'em coming (if you can stomach watching the rest of the season, that is).

Honesty... attitude... and seasoning... could be the keys to eliminations as the second season of Top Chef heads into its finale this week-- after one of the most bizarre reality show incidents in history-- the physical attack on a contestant that almost led to the end of the game and cheated us out of its Hawaiian location.
The two-part finale was shot the first week of December at the Hilton Waikoloa Village on the Big Island. Despite a few blabbermouth finalists who've given indications they've lost by showing up in the papers the past couple of weeks, everyone involved with the Bravo series has been closely guarded about the finale. But now guest judge Alan Wong has given some inadvertent but solid hints that could give fans of the show clear signs of which chefs will be eliminated.
With four finalists left--these could count as spoilers... after the jump...
Guest judge Wong--the master of Hawaiian regional cuisine-- is quoted this morning in the Honolulu Star-Bulletin. He didn't name names, but said:
"Somebody got let go because of dishonesty, somebody got let go because of bad attitude, somebody got let go because of not using salt and pepper and not tasting the food before serving it ..."
Dishonesty... bad attitude... salt & pepper...
The finalists are Ilan Hall, Sam Talbot, (lone female) Elia Aboumrad and cast villain Marcel Vigneron.
Marcel almost won by default last week after a shocking incident in which his fellow contestants had a few drinks and in the middle of the night tried to shave his head. The incident had (surprisingly good) host Padma Lakshmi's mouth hanging open and Judge Tom Colicchio so angry that he wanted to kick off all four of the contestants and give Marcel the prize. But producers overruled him-- and only kicked off Cliff Crooks, the cook who physically held down the little wiseacre.
Marcel is decribed by the newspaper as "a down-to-earth, cheerful sort off-screen," and says his villainous image came as a surprise to those who work with him in the kitchen of the Joel Robuchon at the Mansion restaurant at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
"The majority of my co-workers couldn't believe it and they respect me and didn't understand where the castmates were coming from," he said. "I think it bothered the other people in the house that I didn't let it get under my skin. Most didn't have the courage to say anything directly to me."
Does that sound like a winner? The winner gets $100,000 and a feature in Food & Wine magazine. The Hawaii Visitors and Convention Bureau kicked in $60,000 to snatch the finale from Las Vegas, where Season One ended, so producers had reason to spare Marcel's other three tormentors.

Yeah, I read that about the Phillie station mistakenly announcing that Sam had won, but there seems to be no confirmation. Also a story that Sears has Sam prominently featured in their Kenmore ads. but again, I can't find evidence.
We'll see how Bravo spins this tonight. If they're smart, they'll offer an apology to the viewers in the extra 15 minutes...but it will probably be ANdy Cohen talking about nose jobs.
