This week, we start with the chefs having their own post-mortem on last week's double elimination. Brooke is sad/happy that she has her own room now. Tyler observes that both Kuniko and Carla were both challenge winners who were subsequently eliminated. It's Stefan's 40th birthday and he's filled with trepidation: During his original time on "Top Chef," any chef that had a birthday during filming was promptly eliminated. He dubs it “The Birthday Curse.” The Quickfire brings the gang to the world famous Pike Place Market (I'm surprised it took us five episodes to get here)

It was unclear whether the same group of suspects was involved, a police spokesman said. In the first incident, a 32-year-old woman said she was walking on the east side of the first block of Hopkins Place at about 10 p.m. when she thrown to the ground from behind by two suspects, believed to be women. They demanded her phone, and ended up taking her purse, police said. About 30 minutes later, a 17-year-old male said he was walking in the 100 block of W. Lombard St. after getting off of the light rail at Howard and Baltimore streets, and was waiting for a bus, police said.

Willard, 45, dropped the federal suit and a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission; the Police Department canceled an administrative hearing that could have led to his termination.
