Last night's episode had Petrozza beating Christina 3-2 in a challenge to prepare their signature dishes. Petrozza's win gave him the first pick of helpers. He chose Bobby. Christina chose Corey. He chose Ben. She chose Louross. that leaves Matt and Jen. This presents a Hobson's choice(essentially the lesser of the two evils). The epsiode ended before that decision was presented. I think Petrozza is coming from behind and has to pick Jen in spite of the major risks she poses.
Hobson's choice indeed. I didn't think Petrozza had any good choices with the possible exception of Bobby who really was not shown to be a mess in the kitchen unlike Matt.
Christina probably got the better of the bunch, Corey would not work her heart out for Petrozza whereas she will for Christina, they do make a good team. Louross is not a klutz, he can do well.
Jen is the wild card, I think she will work harder for Petrozza than she would for Christina. Matt is a mess, but he'll probably do better for Christina.
I had to laugh about the restaurant themes, Christina chose stripes then said she hates stripes and had to come up with a solution. (Crisis management testing?) I'm also thinking that the fireplace being too large was also a test to see if she would give up space. It makes no sense that they could not have found a smaller one.
