There are so many likeable contestants this season, like Eddie, Jessie, Lynn, James and even Jordan, even though it's in a cocky, "straight shooter" kind of way. It's really a shame that Krissi is monopolizing the airtime. Hopefully they're just building her up as a villain to make the fall even more glorious for us viewers.
Others already went over this, but yeah, awesome plan arranging for the weakest chef to go home
