Baseball’s having their
Opening Day this week and next, but the door is always
open at Alton Brown’s International House of Sabotageᵀᴹ,
so let’s welcome Emily, Tommy, Sian and Steve as they
walk through the entrance, each receiving their $25,000
seed money for buying various forms of nastiness through
the show. And of course, the winner keeps all their
remaining cash. Our first challenge is to make some pesto pasta. Emily forks over $5,600 to force the others to take their pasta from an nice pasta artwork of Mr. Brown, giving Tommy the linguine, Sian the artsy penne and Steve colorful shells. Then Tommy pays $4,000 for a stack of lawn clippings with herbs inside, giving that to Sian. And in mid-cooking, a pair of flat sheets goes to Emily thanks to Steve’s $5,000 bid. Now let’s bring Antonia Lofaso to judge the meals. She tells Emily her pasta is overcooked, tells Tommy the same, Sian is told that it needs to perfect and says to Steve his pasta is undercooked. And it’s arrivederci to Sian and her full monty of $25,000 disappears. And after the first elimination, Tommy has $21,000, Steve holds an account with $20,000 in it and Emily still has $19,400 in the bank. In the second round, we’ll really learn that Aloha Means Goodbye to the low person on the totem pole with a Hawai’ian lunch. First Emily buys a Hang Loose glove to place on Tommy’s right hand for $1,600, then pays $5,800 to make Steve to cook and mix in shells of pineapples and coconuts along with some banana leaves. Antonia’s back for the judging, says Emily’s meal is happy happy, Tommy’s coconut rice is sticky, and Steve’s vegetarian take is nice, but needs protein. As the sun pulls away from the dock, and we see our boat slowly sinking in the west, it’s Steve who's going down with the ship, and along with it, the $21,000 in cash he had. And with one more round to go, it’s Tommy with $21,000 and Emily with $12,000. So, for the last challenge, do you know the muffin man? Well, these two better in a hurry, because that’s what we’re planning to do, make muffins. Emily pays $6,200 to make Tommy cook and mix his muffins in a muffin tin, while Tommy makes Emily stop cooking and harvest a quarter cup of olive oil from capsules for $2,000. Okay, Antonia’s returned and tastes the muffins. At stake, $5,900 for Emily, $19,000 for Tommy. Tommy’s spin on canolli has too much egg, while Emily’s banana chocolate chip muffin is a tad dry. And the winner is Tommy and his $19,000! More torture filled fun next week. To see this episode in its entirety, go to foodnetwork.com/cutthroatkitchen. |
