Judges: " Massimo, let's start with you."

Massimo: "The dish sucked. I'm embarrassed. Okay. I don't usually have performance issues. My ice cream never came together. I had to just put it on the plate. The plating lacked refinement. For lack of better words."

Judges: "This is great. We don't even need to say anything."

Massimo: "I know it was bad. Chef, you're killing me over here."

Judges: "The thing that you had going for you, Massimo, was that it tasted like a muffin. My mind is a little blown. That liquid nitrogen, it is the easiest way to make ice cream."

Tom Collichio: "What happened? It's instant. You pour it in, it instantly freezes. And if it's not getting frozen, you add more and more."

Massimo: "No excuse"
