Hell's Kitchen Season 8 (post Episode 12)

Ramsay?  What is going to happen?

Gail killed the competition on the challenge...got an amazing make-over and then got booted after service for a poor performance.  Chef said she would do well to serve fast food out of her own kitchen but would be a poor fit for LA Market.  We'll miss you Gail.

Finishing dead last in the competition.  Citing his loss to serving those of unrefined pallets.  Russ took Charge during service when Ramsay went out to get a breath of fresh air (out of frustration).  Under his leadership, he fingered Trev for being the weakest link in that short time.  This hasn't got anything to do with the long standing feud you have had with Trev, has it?

Once again we see Russ bullying, abusing and coercing all those around him for his own gain.  Russ is the 'Nilka' of negative energy bubbles.  This guy should have been surgically removed from the group like a cancer since way earlier when he raved at Ramsay's guests.

...and by the way Russ, look in the mirror.  Why does every 20 something thug want to pretend like they are black rappers?  Actually...don't stop...I enjoy laughing at you for it.

Trev...all guns are pointed toward this guy and he still presses on.  He might not be as good a cook as Russell, but I can't see him chasing me out of his restaurant with a butcher knife, either.

Everyone had a bad service this time.  Jillian has been riding the 'hate trevor' wave successfully taking attention off of her massive immaturity and ineptitude.  Are those eyebrows shaped like horseshoes?  That would explain a bit.  Do you think Russ is gunning for Trev because he's just that much worse than you are?  Like everything Russ does, it's a strategic move.  Russ came to your aid to help you because he knows you to be one of the weak links he wants to compete against. 

Nona...I know you have fought for this.  Everyone is coming up short...including you.  The only person who is qualified to win this game is a total asshole...and that is not you.  You and Jillian are marking time behind Trev.  None of you can stand against Russ in a straight up cooking and leadership contest.  The only reasonable way anyone can win this is with the Americanized ending.

===========
Americanized ending:  The obviously manufactured unlikely circumstances in fiction that cause a miraculous and well timed ascendancy in abilities, beliefs or both. 

IE.
Russ Winning:  "Oh look...I've found the error of my ways and am going to channel my anger for good.  This experience has been a real wake up call...and even though I've lived 29 years having perfected my abilities as a sociopathic political thug, I'm changing that right here and right now"

"Oh...and I'm not going to pretend I'm black anymore"
==========

Just in time for Christmas when we get force fed all the other sacrine bullshit.   Personally I don't think any of them is head chef material.  Russ has anger and intolerance issues.   Trev is stand up...a great guy in a bad place... but his cooking isn't head-chef quality.  Jillian and Nona?  Give me a break.  The drama content contestants should have cleared the stage 3 episodes ago.  I say give Trev the wine spokesperson job and send everyone else home.
