I don't consider foams and using chemicals to create a paste "cooking"--I know there is a place for it, but I just was not impressed with all Marcel's "Chemical Ali" tricks. I think the other chefs sensed that he was a one trick pony too, throughout the season, and the fact that he wasn't getting called it may have led to them not liking him, in addition to his attitude.
I was surpsised, too, when Tom Coliccio (sp?) said that he wasn't judging behavior in the kitchen, because last season they harped so much about how being a good chef involved being a leader and being someone that people would respect in the kitchen. Even if Marcel didn't do anything, its obvious people don't respect him, so I don't think he should be in the finals.
I probably won't watch this week now.
