Lisa and Allison both assert their disdain for the mille feulle, and Allison thanks Lisa for catching the chick pea bug. An Austrian torte puts the contestants on even ground, though the girls agree the torte process was torture to watch.  The petit four showstopper sparks compliments for the bakers' meringues, especially those with the addition of color. Allison is disdainful of Maryannes's  use of "syllabub" and,  the award for the best baker is again rejected for appearing  "second hand"...
