## Notable moments

* Adam and Dom are comparing pipe sizes. We make no comment.
* Carley: "You're ending a friendship, just so you know - it's already so bad!"
* Tom's intro gets a proper round of applause. Adam: "Someone did not come to fuck around!"
* Waitrose free coffee entertains us for quite some time.
* Jon to Carley: "You'll probably chew me up and spit me out, as you often do."
* This is the episode with Adam's descent into madness: "You sons of bitches - I see what you've done to me, to my little hopes and my little dreams". It's almost heartbreaking and it's fitting that he goes to Blair immediately for comforting.
* Jon: "Why does passion make you look guilty in this stupid game?"
* Adam to Sullivan: "You are the fanciest goon I've ever met."
* Ben: "As much as I love hearing Jon say 'It's not me!' 75 times in the space of 10 minutes, let's have Laurie's response."
* Ben: "I don't think I've ever seen the good team throw away a victory that would have been so good..."
* Blair: "Elliott's my sweet sweet boy!"
* Carley: "You have to trust me sometimes, guys!"
* Ben: "Oh Adam, have you been drinking all the WKD at the school disco? What's gone on?"
* We're definitely playing the meta now.
* Tom: "Unless Brooke wants to kick the shit out of Sully again, we'll wrap this up right now."
