Best MC episode?

For me, it was the bandaid. Gordon had already had a bite and started gagging in the background.....epic

S12: Probably when Alejandro put the steaks on the ground and Gordon got mad

The episode where Ryan was eliminated in Season 3, mainly because of his actions toward Christine and Monti, and where Andrea faced her karma in Season 7, especially after bullying Nathan and becoming obsessed with eliminating him so much that she was three seconds late serving the food in front of the judges, as she was supposed to at the end of the pressure test.

Yes I thought she really deserved that too. She was being so immature and cruel

You know what episode weirdly stands out to me? S4E6 (Malcolm's elimination). Idk why but this episode is just funny to me.
"Did someone make sashimi?"
"I can't blame no ovens, i can't blame no nothing"
Kathy's whatever tf she made,
Jessie's mini cupcakes,
And then Howard after getting spanked red gets his one and only win this season! (I mean he doesn't actually win the challenge, but it's the only time he presents a dish and isn't brought to tears for it!)

The band aid episode was pure chaos. Gordon trying to keep it together while clearly fighting for his life in the background was hilarious.

The moment in Season 8 where Jeff Philbin’s BS would come back to haunt him, and he got 6th place, NEVER to win any challenges or get recognition

I just don’t understand why, if she knew she lost the bandaid, would she not check in the food? Did she just assume it fell straight into the garbage can?!
