The contestants didn't sign up to be babied. Josh ****ed up, plain and
simple. He should have been gone last week. He couldn't put out a single
appetizer to order. (I do have to wonder about a restaurant that puts so
much into risotto, though... just not something I'd order. What, rice?!
Um, I can do that at home, thanks.)

Ramsay is doing these "kids" a favour, IMO. Showing them what life in the
big kitchen is all about. I thought it was great he's sending Julia to
culinary school. She's a Waffle House cook! She stepped up and showed she
could do it. Ramsay recognized it and is going to help her become a little
more than a Waffle House cook, not that there is anything wrong with that.
He's really a good guy; he just has to be an ass on TV for this show.
