It's Halloween Week!  Something they haven't done before and we were excited!  We kick off the episode talking about some halloween traditions we have and we learn about Alison's "dark side" of the neighborhood.  Everyone will be heading to Meredith's for full size bars!!   Note:  the below will contain episode spoilers. The costumes this week were stellar.  Noel with his awesome shirts and jumper, Prue crushing with the Jacket, Maxy's awesome hair, and Janusz rocking the eyeliner applied by Syabira.   The signature is a great fall tradition - Apple Cake.  Most went for traditional flavors, with a few being a bit more dangerous.  Sandro delivering the "whiskey" with Prue almost saying too much... but then replying " why change a habit of a lifetime"  - fantastic line.  Lots of good looking cakes - Mere really wanted to tru Abdul's, Alison would like to try Kevin's, and Sheldon was all about that Maxy cream cheese icing.  The collective handshakes for this season was doubled in this round.  Janusz had a great looking cake, but Alison suspected that the type of apple didn't have strong enough flavors.  The technical delivered what many would consider an American Classic - S'Mores.  But only kinda... Just toasting the outside of the mallow and using digestive biscuits does not really a S'More make... A couple people had a disastrous time with the gelatine involved.  Several looked ok... but just didn't have it right.  The person that won the technical was pretty neat in their design and had the flavor spot on.   In the showstopper, we were doing hanging lantern cake / pinata smashing.  A lot of cool designs.  While Sandro had a great design, too much chili can kill you.  Abdul got bit by an old GBBO enemy.... Rosewater.  Dawn's bake just looked pretty brutal.  The treats inside ranged a lot of different ways, from macarons to florentines.  At the end of the say this was perhaps the first time the judges have said while deliberating that there was clearly only one Star Baker.  The person that went home was not a surprise to any of us based on the day.   Points: Mere:  26 Alison:  17 Sheldon: 8
