They prosecuted the guys who were cheering and yelling, the ones who stood by and egged on the rapist. IN NO WAY AM I COMPARING IT TO RAPE. However, it's the same situation with the bystanders -- Sam, Elia and Ilan didn't do the physical assaulting, but they were there cheering Cliff on, egging him on to continue the assault.<BR/><BR/>You owe your friend an apology.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35759387.post-63552337101519879612007-01-25T08:27:00.000-08:002007-01-25T08:27:00.000-08:00Update: My videos (the original footage and the re...Update: My videos (the original footage and the re-edited footage) have been removed from YouTube due to "copyright violations."

But Elia, Ilan, Sam and Cliff are laughing it up and even making jokes at Marcel's expense (Elia mimicking his face) after this has happened.<br /><br />It indicates a callousness and emotional disconnect. It shows they had no remorse after the attack. In fact, they all continued their party.<br /><br />Not exactly "Top Chef" material. Too bad Tom couldn't send them all home.

It was reverse edited to make us believe they wanted to include Marcel in their antics and "it's was no big deal to shave a head, see we deeed it". I'd bet production, who aired the tape in reverse order, got the chefs to lie about how the events occured to save their own asses. Why lie? Let's see, they "pranked" a non-friend, whom they feared would narc them all OUT, even the show. I wonder if there really is a "Good SAMaritan" law. Just like in the Seinfeld finale, except these idiots go to Hawaii instead of prison. All this was turned into a cover-up to make Sam and Elia not look so bad, cuz they're probably in the final two. Ratings, ratings, ratings. Or Marcel is in the F2, and most of us, it seems, have started to root for the resident "social outcast". Ilan was a huge fan fave in the polls until the "Seven" episode, and the editors didn't even try to give him a good edit after that. Makes you wonder if the food is even real anymore. Oh yeah, the food, where did you go this year.
