During cooking: {name} teases - "Oh, look at you trying to be me, son."
At presentation: {Laurence}: "I'm Chinese American, but my roots in cooking is always Turkish food. So today we have murasaki and pork sarma rolled in some collard greens, tomato, and some yogurt."
SAFE (middle position) in the Murasaki round. Tom Colicchio: "The tomato took away any flavor that you could have potentially gotten from the sweet potato because it was so overpowering." Laurence was confirmed safe and not in contention for elimination.
