I think that Laura had been completely convinced that because she had always been so perfectly prepared that she was going to win this in a walk (pardon the pun), but I think she got really worried when she saw Jeffrey's collection, because it was so damn good, and because he was basically done already. I agree that she didn't mean for it to spin so far out of control, though. (Did you catch her little sneer, the "I'd rather beat him on the runway, instead of the accountant's office."? She sounds like a cheerleader that got passed over for captain of the squad!)
Uli is good, and I could easily see her having a fantastic line of beach/party/cruise wear that will be big in Miami, the Caribbean, and possibly even LA. Michael does need a mentor - I could easily see him at Michael Kors (that would be a great fit), maybe even Kenneth Cole or Calvin Klein. I think he'd also be a good fit at Sean John or Baby Phat, too - they match his aesthetic, but would probably help him find a way to mature it and make it more appealing to a wider audience.
I have Top Chef saved on my DVR, and I can't wait to watch it.
