Most amazing: during the live portion, when asked what the contestants thought, Casey's first words were essentially, "it wasn't my night, I'm not going to win."
The head judge's first words, translated: "You're right."
This show really dispelled some of my cynicism about what may go on behind the scenes.

Well, to be fair, Casey had just watched the episode itself. She had seen the portion of judges' commentary where it was decided that Hung had won 2 courses and Dale had won 2 courses. There was no question that the "tough decision" (which I don't think was actually that tough, but they've got to say it is for TV) was between Dale and Hung.

I thought Casey's reaction in the original judging lineup, where it looked as if she might cry, made it clear that she knew even then that she was out of it.
