NARRATOR: Previously
on "Hell's Kitchen"--
GORDON: Congratulations.
NARRATOR: Chef Ramsay's
final five became one team.
VIRGINIA (VOICEOVER):
We all have
to be on our tippy-top
toes right now.
GORDON: Let's go.
NARRATOR: In their first
individual challenge--
GORDON: Keith, you've got
the most amazing color.
Thanks, chef.
NARRATOR: Keith's veal chop
impressed Chef Ramsay the most,
and was rewarded
with a trip to Vegas.
GORDON: One more thing--
you can take someone with you.
NARRATOR: Although Keith made a
promise to his friend Garrett--
I would pick you if
I won, just because we
got screwed the most.
NARRATOR: --he went
back on his word.
I'm going to take Virginia.
That That was the weakest thing
I've ever seen in my life.
KEITH: Listen, dude.
I feel bad.
GARRETT: Listen, nothing!
You're a liar!
NARRATOR: Keith and
Virginia jetted off
to the Red Rock
Resort in Las Vegas
and the site of the
restaurant that the Hell's
Kitchen winner will win.
GORDON: Welcome to Red Rock.
VIRGINIA: Yeah, ha!
Vegas, baby.
NARRATOR: Then, at dinner--
GORDON: Now the
pressure is really on.
NARRATOR: --Heather
received a rare compliment.
GORDON: That is
absolutely spot-on.
NARRATOR: While
Sara had a problem
with the cooking basics--
GORDON: They won't stick.
That's why it's called nonstick!
NARRATOR: --Virginia
struggled with the vegetables.
GORDON: You're just total crap!
f*ck!
f*ck!
f*ck!
NARRATOR: And Garrett
broke a cardinal rule.
GORDON: The chicken is raw.
You could have k*lled someone.
NARRATOR: Thanks to Keith--
GORDON: That Wellington's
cooked perfectly.
Thanks, chef.
NARRATOR: The final
five completed service.
GORDON: Hallelujah.
Keith, nominate two
for elimination.
Choose wisely.
Virginia.
Second nominee.
Garrett.
NARRATOR: And the
former prison chef--
GORDON: Garrett,
take off your jacket.
NARRATOR: --was released
from Hell's Kitchen.
I wanted this
more than anything.
[cloth ripping]
[fire roaring]
[music - ohio players, "fire"]
NARRATOR: And now, the
continuation of Hell's Kitchen.
[music playing]
Last man standing.
Oooh!
VIRGINIA: I know.
It's OK.
I'm not mad at you.
Don't apologize.
I am so sick of f*cking up.
VIRGINIA (VOICEOVER):
I don't want to be
here if I don't deserve to be.
I'm good at creating
dishes and I'm
good at challenges
and stuff, but I'm
just not good at service.
So frustrated that I can do so
well and then f*ck up so badly.
It's a hard knock life.
Like, I'm the only
person on this team that is
literally so f*cking bipolar.
You got that straight.
Chef Ramsay's like, can you
even say anything anymore,
Virginia?
You've been up here
four times now.
I suck on the hot line.
Everybody knows that.
SARA (VOICEOVER): As
far as I'm concerned,
Virginia has no skills.
So, I'm worried about my chances
against Heather and Keith.
That's competition.
KEITH (VOICEOVER): Now
I'm the only dude left.
Hopefully, K-Grease makes it
to the finals and wins that.
HEATHER: I swear--
KEITH (VOICEOVER): Heather has
been the strongest competition
from the get-go, and if you've
been watching K-Grease kinda
is stronger than her.
He's gonna go down.
[music playing]
NARRATOR: Four chefs remain,
but only one will win and become
the executive chef and
share in the profits
of a multimillion-dollar
Vegas restaurant.
GORDON: Quite
extraordinary, from to .
Surely, you must all
be feeling proud.
Who thinks they're
the strongest chef?
I guess I do, chef.
I think I'm the
strongest, chef.
You think you're
the strongest chef?
Good.
I think I'm the
strongest, too, chef.
Thank God you spoke up, missy.
So, three strong chefs and one--
VIRGINIA (VOICEOVER):
After my performance
last night, I'm not going to be
like, I'm the strongest chef.
Um, yeah.
Well go on then, get out.
I think I'm a strong chef,
um, when it comes to food,
but I am weak in
the hot kitchen.
I personally think you're
all strong chefs because you've
all gone to Hell and back.
And that's why you're
still standing there.
Now it's getting really serious.
And today, we're
really going to find
out who is the strongest chef.
In your next
challenge, each of you
will be getting your own
restaurant to run for lunch.
Yeah.
KEITH (VOICEOVER): That's pimp.
I've been planning my restaurant
since I was a little kid,
you know?
That's what I'm here for.
GORDON: Hold on a minute,
because it gets even better.
You know there are
phenomenal rewards
when you win these challenges.
But there's no more
significant reward than this.
It's huge.
Today's winner will
have a guaranteed
spot in the final three.
VIRGINIA (VOICEOVER):
Out of all the prizes
and rewards I've
won, I definitely
want to win this one.
That's for dang sure.
HEATHER (VOICEOVER):
The reward today--
not only do you get a top spot,
but you get the recognition
from Chef, and that's huge.
Your restaurants are
all at a secret location,
so you'll be blindfolded.
I'll see you at the restaurant.
HEATHER (HEATHER): Running this
restaurant today is going to--
(EXHALES) so exciting.
SARA (VOICEOVER): I
love leading a team.
This is really an
opportunity to show my stuff.
VIRGINIA (VOICEOVER): I
have no idea what to expect,
but I'm definitely not
going to be intimidated
if it's a high-end restaurant.
NARRATOR: What our chefs don't
know is that the restaurants
that Chef Ramsay referred to--
[truck horn blaring]
NARRATOR: --are catering trucks.
GORDON: Take your
blindfolds off.
Here are your restaurants.
SARA (VOICEOVER):
It was awesome.
I've always dreamed of
having one of those.
GORDON: Hey, by the way--
those guys up there-- the
construction workers--
they're your customers.
And they're coming down
here at noon for lunch.
HEATHER (VOICEOVER): I
was excited because I
love construction workers.
GORDON: Now, more
importantly, they're
going to help me decide
the winner for who's
got the tastiest lunch menu.
Are you ready?
ALL: Yes, chef!
OK, let's go.
Come on!
NARRATOR: The
chefs will have one
hour to prepare
their lunch specials
for construction workers.
Virginia has chosen to
prepare turkey, prosciutto,
and feta cheese sandwiches.
Remember what's at stake?
VIRGINIA: Yes.
The winner of this challenge
goes straight through.
NARRATOR: Sara is preparing
seared quail with micro greens
salad and fresh berries.
A man likes stuff to chew on.
[chewing sound]
NARRATOR: Keith's lunch is
a delicately poached lobster
on a bed of greens.
GORDON: minutes to go.
NARRATOR: Heather has
cooked a grilled chicken
sandwich with french fries.
Who doesn't like a
grilled chicken sandwich?
And french fries?
You're not a
vegetarian, are you?
No.
Thank f*ck for that.
Come on, I might be
working with the devil,
but I want God on my side today.
One minute to go!
[music playing]
It's go-time.
[music playing]
GORDON: Five!
Four!
Three!
Two!
One!
OK, guys!
Let's go!
Here we go!
Here come the
construction workers.
Over here!
Over here!
Step right up.
Thank you!
CONSTRUCTION WORKER: What
are you feeding us, Keith?
KEITH: It's lobster, guys.
- All right!
- Do you want some more fries?
Here you go.
SARA: I was hoping
that I can win
through the power of speaking
the language of my homies.
NARRATOR: While Sara works the
locals with her native tongue,
Virginia uses a more
universal language.
VIRGINIA: Hey, handsome!
The little panini sandwich
with a big kick to it, boys.
I was totally playing with
the construction workers.
Where have you been all my life?
So who else wants some loving?
CONSTRUCTION WORKERS: Yeah!
HEATHER: Big sandwich,
I'll fill you up.
I put alcohol in the onions.
Construction workers
love alcohol!
Eat up, men!
NARRATOR: Now the
construction workers
will sample each
of the four dishes
and select their favorite.
So far, so good?
The junior sandwich
was very good.
Seafood beats any sandwich.
In my opinion, your
dish was the best.
You da man!
You da man!
I think Keith's is a
little better than Heather's.
Yeah.
GORDON: You have
to make a decision
which one you enjoy the most.
Which is your favorite,
and which was the one
you didn't enjoy.
Thank you, guys.
Thank you.
KEITH: I served them all.
GORDON: Good.
Get nice and tidy.
OK, lunch is over.
I'll announce the winner
back in Hell's Kitchen.
Let's go.
[beeping]
[music playing]
Suspense k*lling you?
ALL: Yes, chef.
GORDON: This reward means
more than any other award
so far in Hell's Kitchen.
The winner of this
challenge is going straight
through for the final three.
That's a big move.
HEATHER (VOICEOVER): Whoever
wins today can definitely,
definitely, definitely
throw things
out of whack in Hell's Kitchen.
SARA (VOICEOVER): The top three?
I've got to clinch this one.
VIRGINIA (VOICEOVER): Winning
the challenge would definitely
redeem me from last night.
KEITH (VOICEOVER): I think
I'm already going to make it
to the final three, so the
only thing I want the win for
is not to be punished.
I don't want to
do the punishment.
OK, this wasn't my decision.
We asked those
construction workers
which food they like
the best, and which food
they like the least.
Let's start with the
dish they like least.
The construction
workers said their least
favorite dish was cooked by--
[tense music playing]
GORDON: --Heather.
HEATHER (VOICEOVER):
I felt my heart drop.
I'm sorry.
Now for the winner.
Half of those
construction workers
picked one dish
as their favorite,
and that was cooked by--
[tense music playing]
--Virginia.
You're in the final three.
Wow.
GORDON: Congratulations.
Are you lying to me?
Sorry?
Was that a joke?
Just kidding.
I didn't think that
anybody liked it.
I liked it.
Did you like it?
Wow.
This wasn't my decision.
This was purely their
decision on their card.
You're through to
the final three.
So, Virginia-- one more thing.
You're going off shopping.
I love to shop.
For the rest of you--
tomorrow night in Hell's
Kitchen we will be cooking crab.
So for the rest of
the day, you're going
to be picking all the meat out.
These crabs are delicate--
dainty.
I don't want them
smashed to hell.
OK, guys.
Quick change.
Let's get cooking
some crabs, huh?
KEITH (VOICEOVER): Virginia--
she is winning challenges,
but the challenges
don't really matter.
HEATHER: So discouraging.
Out of everything,
mine was the worst?
I'm like, oh.
They said that
line was the worst.
I guess that shows that you
can be the hardest worker,
and sometimes that just
won't get you very far.
Because she's cute and--
KEITH: Yeah.
Because they liked here,
you know what I mean?
All the construction
workers probably
said she's the hottest one, so
that's why they voted for her.
VIRGINIA: I've been waiting
for you all day, where
have you been all my life?
Who else wants some loving?
She can't run a
f*cking restaurant.
Nah.
I'm just so sick
of that girl winning.
VIRGINIA (EXCITEDLY): Ahhhhhhh!
VIRGINIA (VOICEOVER):
I was very,
very excited to win the reward.
I didn't really know
what was in store for me.
Being in the safe zone tomorrow
night is reward enough.
KEITH: (MOCKINGLY) Ooh, you
get to go shopping, baby?
You going to get
some f*cking purses?
And makeup?
KEITH: Cleaning crabs suck.
I read in Gordon's cookbook--
clean them on top of metal,
so when you drop it down
you can hear shells hit.
Yes.
NARRATOR: Virginia's
pass to the final three
is the best reward
ever in Hell's Kitchen.
And the crab punishment
is arguably the worst.
[dramatic music playing]
KEITH: Ow!
[upbeat music playing]
GORDON: Amazing place.
Yes, it is.
It's absolutely brilliant.
VIRGINIA: I was very, very
excited to win a shopping
spree in a Sur La Table.
That's like-- my dream.
Like-- that's like--
a kid in a candy shop.
Ooh, I want one of these.
Then I want to get
a pasta machine.
Some wine glasses.
A pink spatula.
A pink spatula.
Which knife are
you going to get?
VIRGINIA: The big one.
What is that called?
- A cleaver.
The cleaver.
Thing you.
And I'll name it Chef Ramsay.
[laughs] Just kidding.
Do you like this apron?
What does it say on there?
- Kiss the cook.
- Uh.
Oh, shit.
VIRGINIA: I
definitely got to know
and be more comfortable
around chef Ramsay--
Gordon.
Oop!
Oh sh--
[glass hitting floor]
VIRGINIA: [laughing]
He's quite charming, that man.
This is a lot more
fun than having
to do that crabs business.
Yeah.
Welcome to Hell's Kitchen.
Go with the towel!
Ow!
KEITH: I'm pissed I
gotta shuck these crabs.
Six bushels, which is a lot--
a lot of tedious work.
Like Hell's
Kitchen in a crate.
These guys are strong.
SARA (VOICEOVER):
They're horrible.
You gotta be careful with them,
and they're alive and pinching
and mean.
Come here, you little fucker.
Just get in.
It's like a bath.
GORDON: Get some hand cream.
Get this for Sara.
A cow.
Come here, you
fat-mouthed little cow.
Excuse me?
I'm going to get
one of your cookbooks.
Where are they?
GORDON: Yeah, where are they?
Look.
VIRGINIA: Oh.
GORDON: Oh, my God.
VIRGINIA: His books were
just on the fricking table
right in front of me.
I do stupid stuff like
that all the time.
Say something really nice.
Something nice.
And please don't use
the word bitch or cow.
CASHIER: . .
Oh!
Oh wow!
VIRGINIA: I got good stuff.
It's crazy that
she keeps winning.
It pisses me off.
HEATHER (VOICEOVER):
Virginia-- she can't cut
it during service, so--
it's just so unbelievable
that she's still here.
I don't know that she's
been successful in any station
she's worked on.
One time.
Which one?
HEATHER: She walks around
with this grin all day long.
HEATHER: I'm like, wipe
that grin off your face,
or I'm going to
wipe it off for you.
SARA (VOICEOVER):
Because Virginia
knows how to shake
her moneymaker,
she's been able to survive.
KEITH (VOICEOVER): She's
going down, and that's that.
HEATHER (VOICEOVER):
The only way
you're going to win the
fight against me is service.
That's where I'll kick your ass.
Hi, guys.
[tense music playing]
How much did
you have to spend?
VIRGINIA: A thousand.
A thousand dollars?
What the f*ck?
You better have
got me something.
VIRGINIA: I did.
Yeah, I got you something, Sara.
Don't get mad.
It's just a joke.
It's for cream.
Oh, really?
Big bucks.
Big bucks.
VIRGINIA: This is
for you, Heather.
It's a glove that you
pick hot pans up with
or you can stick your
hand in boiling hot water
and you won't feel it.
[dramatic music playing]
Before you even
give me my present,
you better have spent more
of the money on me than this.
[dramatic music playing]
This is for you--
for the crab.
KEITH: [laughs]
You guys already have
all this stuff, though.
Imagine.
KEITH (VOICEOVER):
I think she should
have got us a better present
if she had a thousand dollars.
She should have gotten
me a knife or something
that cost like $ .
Six dollars out of a thousand?
She could have
gotten me something
better because I picked her
to go to Vegas, you know?
VIRGINIA: Cheers.
KEITH: Cheers, baby.
- Vegas, baby.
- What'd you buy yourself?
VIRGINIA: I'll show you.
KEITH: Coulda got me a knife.
Are you guys mad at me?
[dramatic music playing]
VIRGINIA (VOICEOVER): I
definitely earned this win,
and I think that it's
really rude that they're
treating me this way.
They're jealous.
I definitely think they're
going to be bitchier tomorrow.
I just have to block out the
fact that the team's upset
and just get my ass in
shape tomorrow night.
Yup.
Yeah.
NARRATOR: The chefs are
preparing for a dinner
service like no other.
Challenge winner
Virginia is safe,
but is she feeling secure?
Everybody, I want to know
I would not try and, like,
breeze through service tonight.
SARA (VOICEOVER): I
don't care if Virginia's
got a free pass-- a free ride--
a golden ticket-- whatever.
She's a mess.
She's a total [babbling].
I'mma take care of myself before
I'm gonna take care of her.
NARRATOR: Now the pressure is
on Sara, Keith, and Heather,
because one of them will
be going home tonight.
KEITH (VOICEOVER):
My strategy is
to not get in trouble--
keep my station
clean-- pull my pants up.
I'm going to try my hardest,
and I'm gonna try to make
money food, and that's that.
GORDON: OK, guys.
Two seconds, let's go.
Keith, quick.
Now, big boy.
Let's go.
OK.
Restaurant's opening in
five minutes time, yes?
Standing in front of us now
is the best of the best.
Tonight, for the first time
ever in Hell's Kitchen,
I have invited three top chefs.
They're going to be eating
dinner in Hell's Kitchen.
You four are going to
be cooking for them.
SARA (VOICEOVER): Well,
tonight three top chefs
are in Hell's Kitchen.
But I was freaking
the f*ck out, man.
I'm scared.
So, that is one table that
none of you screw up on.
I'm excited about
tonight's service.
Let's go, yes?
Thank you.
ALL: Yes, chef.
Hell's Kitchen is now open.
[music playing]
NARRATOR: Tonight, the
four best chefs remain--
Keith on appetizers, Sara
on fish, Heather on meat,
and Virginia on vegetables.
There's no way
on earth any of you
are going to make
me look stupid.
Yes, chef!
GORDON: First order, let's go.
On order-- four
covers, table .
Two spaghetti, one no lobster.
Two salads, Saint
Jacque Entree--
two Wellingtons, two salmon.
ALL: Yes, chef!
Coming down, right behind.
NARRATOR: In addition
to her station,
Virginia will also be
responsible for preparing
a crab amuse-bouche, which
is an hors d'oeuvre served
to every table.
GORDON: Virginia, there you go.
That's the fastest I've
ever seen you move.
Thank you, chef.
Ladies, we ready
to go on that ticket?
I'm ready.

NARRATOR: The final four
have hit the ground running,
and the kitchen is working
better than it ever has before.
Keith's appetizers
are making their way
to the diners in record time.
They're very good.
NARRATOR: Only minutes
in, and the kitchen
has already moved on to .
That salmon's
marked beautifully.
Thank you, chef.
Hey!
Notice that I've never started
a service off so positively.
Hello?
Can we keep it going?
ALL: Yes, chef!
GORDON: Let's go.
On order-- six covers, table .
Yes, chef.

Three spaghetti lobster,
two tempura, one risotto.
Entree-- three Wellington, one
chicken, one duck, one salmon.
ALL: Yes, chef.
If I heard a six,
I wouldn't even wait.
Yes, chef.
By the time you get
appetizer, I'd be on there.
- Yes, chef.
- And you'd be like this.
Yes, chef.
Yes, chef.
GORDON: Come on, move
your f*cking ass.
Yes, chef.
NARRATOR: While Virginia
is spinning her wheels,
Heather is in overdrive.
HEATHER (VOICEOVER): It's down
to either Keith, Sara, or I
to go home tonight.
Virginia, one minute--
I'm ready.
VIRGINIA: Yes!
HEATHER (VOICEOVER): So, I
really got to step up tonight.
I really, really, really
got to step up tonight.
seconds!
You ready?
I will be in seconds.
GORDON: Let's go.
Where are the green beans?
GORDON: Service, please.
Where are the green beans?
Oh, hello dizzy Lizzie.
Where are my green beans?
Hey, who are you talking to?
Myself.
GORDON: Good.
Can you give up the garnish
now, please, Virginia?
Who's holding us up, Heather?
Virginia.
Why are we holding
this table up?
I'm just trying to
move as fast as I can.
GORDON: Yeah,
well-- hey, missy--
- Trying to do it, you guys.
- Listen.
- Yes, chef.
- Listen.
If you're trying to go as fast
as you can, do me a favor.
VIRGINIA: Yes, chef.
- Hello!
Hello!
Look at me in the eyes.
Look at me--
- Yes, chef.
- Watch her for two minutes.
- Yes, chef.
GORDON: That's fast.
I'm ready.
Can you please go?
Virginia?
Wellingtons are being served.
Coming down.
GORDON: Uh, Heather?
- Yes, chef?
Heather.
This is amazing.
Thank you, chef.
GORDON: Those Wellingtons
are cooked perfect.
This is the best start we've
ever had in Hell's Kitchen,
let's go, Heather, yes?
Yes, chef!
NARRATOR: It's one
hour into service.
of the diners
have received their ,
and now the three master
chefs have arrived.
Good to have you in
the restaurant tonight.
NARRATOR: As is customary in
Chef Ramsay's restaurants,
the kitchen will choose the
menu for their special guests.
Uh, hey guys, by the way, yes?
Josie and David our
local legends, yes?
Hello?
Yeah?
Michael however, is going to
be in competition with you.
He's a massive success in Vegas.
What are you going
to serve them?
How about the
spaghetti lobster?
GORDON: Three spaghetti lobster.
Hey-- just make them your
best spaghetti lobster.
Ever.
Fish course-- what are
you going to serve them?
I'd serve one
monkfish, two scallops.
Listen, all the
same, you silly cow.
- OK, scallops.
- Three Saint Jacque.
SARA: Yes, chef.
OK, meat-- Heather?
- Wellingtons, chef.
- Three Wellingtons.
- Yes, chef.
- Yes?
There you go.
Now wake up, yeah?
Hey.
ALL: Yes, chef!
And show them what
you're made of, yes?
ALL: Yes, chef!
Keith--
KEITH: Yes, chef?
Three stunning spaghetti lobster
away to the chef's table.
KEITH: Yes, chef.
GORDON: Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Not tonight.
I want to show these guys
we're in control, Keith, yes?
All good.
- Keith?
- I got it, chef.
Yeah?
Thank you.
KEITH (VOICEOVER): Chef Ramsay
is just worried about us making
this shit right,
but you know I've
been k*lling it on
the line, so what
do I got to be nervous about?
NARRATOR: Keith has undercooked
the pasta for the chef's table,
but rather than call
attention to his mistake,
he's taking a chance and
re-boiling the spaghetti.
Three nice spaghetti for
the chef's table, please.
Three spaghetti to
the chef's table, go.
One salmon, one duck-- one
minute on the hot plate, yes?
I'm not ready on
that salmon yet.
Oh, come on.
I need two minutes
on the salmon, please.
Why didn't you say?
I've been saying, chef.
Oh, come on ladies.
We were just going,
everything's flowing, then--
Yes, chef.
Take the duck back.
Why is the salmon so slow?
Because I didn't have
an extra on fire, chef.
My mistake.
Missy, I know it's
your mistake, clearly.
Duck, perfectly cooked.
Yes, chef!
Salmon, how long?
I need two minutes, chef.
Still two minutes?
I have to reheat my duck
because that got screwed.
Two minutes!
Two minutes, you
better be ready.
GORDON: Sara!
- Chef.
GORDON: Now you're
keeping back--
SARA: Yes, chef.
GORDON: --the .
Yes, chef.
GORDON: I can spot the weak
link in the chain, missy.
Move.
Sara-- don't you dare
sabotage this service.
No, chef.
GORDON: So far, it's
been immaculate.
Yes, chef!
NARRATOR: While Chef Ramsay
tries to get his kitchen back
in order, the master
chefs are just
finishing Keith's appetizers.
Part of it's
cooked really well,
but it's like a part of
it didn't go in the water.
Keith--
Yes, chef?
Come here.
Feedback from the
three chefs-- what
did he say about the spaghetti?
Come on, hurry up.
He said that the spaghetti
wasn't cooked all the way.
He's saying that some bits
are-- are just cooked right,
and some others aren't.
They're not really impressed.
- OK, fine.
f*ck off.
There you go.
NARRATOR: Unfortunately,
Keith's gamble didn't pay off.
Hey, big boy--
I know it's not you
best service-- hey--
I haven't given up on
you, so get it back.
Yes, chef.
Oh, f*cking hell.
NARRATOR: A dinner service that
started with such great promise
has begun to unravel, but
hope is not lost if Sara
can master her fish station.
Let's go, three
salmon, one turbot.
Heather?
What?
Is there any other
salmon in the house?
What's going on?
What's going on?
- Chef, I--
- What?
Come here, you.
Tell me!
I'm the f*cking chef!
Yes, chef.
I don't have enough salmon
to get through the night.
You're not serious, are you?
I am serious, chef.
Hey-- I'd f*ck off and go
and buy some if I was you.
May I substitute using turbot?
Why don't you check
with the maitre d'?
I need--
GORDON: Can we serve turbot
in place of the salmon?
On which table?
GORDON: Table .
- Table .
Please.
Thank you.
Hey you-- f*ck off my dear.
You useless cow.
The turbot's in here?
Poaching?
- Sorry, chef.
Yeah, no, missy.
You're finished, aren't you?
Oh chef, come on.
Hey, what do you
mean "come on?"
I want you to come on.
I want you to wake up!
But, chef, I told you, and
they're resolving it now,
and all I can do is
give them the turbot.
I have the salmon [inaudible]
- That's right!
--but it's only two!
And whose f*cking
fault was it?
Don't get f*cking upset with
me in my f*cking kitchen
when you're standing
there sulking
because you f*cked the salmon.
I'm not sulking, chef.
Yes, chef.
Yeah?
You're finished.
Heather, get on
the fish, please.
And do something for her.
No, chef!
So wake up and get
it back together!
I don't need to be
replaced over here.
Well, then, tell her then.
I don't need to be
replaced, thank you.
There you go.
SARA (VOICEOVER): I
screwed up one f*cking
table, with one f*cking salmon.
I wasn't beat.
Don't get up all in
my crotch about shit.
NARRATOR: Sara has succeeded
in defending her territory
for now, but the pressure's
still on as her dish reaches
the Master Chef's table.
The scallops are cooked good.
NARRATOR: Sara's dish
received mixed reviews.
Now Heather is determined
to ensure the quality
of her entrees and is
counting on Virginia
to be in sync with the
delivery of the vegetables.
Virginia, I'm two-and-a-half
minutes to hot plate
on three duck, two Wellingtons.
Three duck, one Wellington.
Two Wellington.
Two Wellington, Virginia.
Two Wellington.
Yes, two Wellington.
Two minutes to hot plate.
GORDON: Oh, my God.
Not in front of the chefs.
Heather, do me a favor.
Go around to the guys and
get whatever she doesn't got.
There you go.
- Yeah.
Where's the bok choy?
Bok choy?
Oh shit, I'm out of cream.
Keith, can you run back
and get me cream, please?
As fast as you can.
KEITH: No.
GORDON: Move, missy, let's go.
Heather, I've got no choice now.
You're going to go around
and mop her ass all up
and then start
getting your meat out.
Yes, chef.
GORDON: Hey missy, is
this because you're safe?
No, chef!
GORDON: It is, isn't it?
No, chef!
The girl cooking the
meat's now doing your f*cking
garnish so move your ass.
Yes, chef.
NARRATOR: Despite
Virginia, Heather
has managed to get her entrees
out, and of diners
have been served.
The meat, actually,
was very, very good.
The-- the peas itself was-- it
tasted like carbon from, you
know, the flame hitting it.
GORDON: Oh, my God.
Not in front of the chefs.
So, that wasn't
very appetizing.
Heather.
Jean-Philippe to
hot plate, please.
Let's go.
Two risotto, one Saint
Jacque, one tempura.
Call quickly.
No waffles, straight
to the point.
Yeah.
They felt like the
taste in the peas
was the flames of the stove.
Thank you, Virgina.
HEATHER (VOICEOVER):
They loved everything.
They said the Wellington
was cooked perfectly, but--
the peas were burnt.
seconds-- one
salmon, one Wellington.
Don't burn the peas this time.
The garnish came back
from the Chef's Table,
saying the peas were burned.
The temperature of the
Wellington was perfect.
Yes, chef.
Whatever she hasn't
got, come round, yeah?
- Yeah.
- And f*cking get it out, yeah?
I will, chef.
Otherwise, you, missy,
may be going home.
No, chef.
Yeah, because she's safe.
That's why she's not
been speeding up.
No, chef.
GORDON: She's safe.
Hey-- so she's
playing against you.
Wake up, you.
Let's go.
VIRGINIA (VOICEOVER):
I'm trying my hardest.
Why do they have to be so harsh?
Harsh, harsh, harsh.
NARRATOR: Heather is doing
everything in her power
to complete tonight's service--
with or without anyone's help.
Two minutes to hot plate!
Yes?
Yes.
Slow it down, Heather.
Hey, Sara.
SARA: Chef?
Hey, listen you stupid cow.
Yes, chef.
Slow down.
Hey missus-- come here, you.
Yes, chef.
How many tables are
left on the hot plate?
.
And you've got the nerve
to tell her to slow down.
Yes, chef.
Sorry.
- Yeah.
- I apologize.
f*cking right.
Apologize to her.
Heather, I'm sorry.
Hey, missus-- say
it as if you mean it.
Heather-- I'm sorry.
Next, you'll be asking
to pluck my eyebrows
or shave my f*cking ninny.
- You can go with three salmon?
- Yeah.
Whenever you're ready, I--
- Right now?
- I can't!
- Yes!
I can't, you guys!
I can't.
- Jesus!
- Oh, my God.
Either somebody help me or
just slow it down, please.
GORDON: Heather--
- Yes, chef?
GORDON: Right now she's
screwing you, hey--
Clear me a couple
minutes on the cabbage.
I just burned the cabbage.
"I've just burned
the cabbage."
Yes, chef.
I burned the cabbage, chef.
- Heather!
- Yes, chef?
GORDON: She's
burned the cabbage.
VIRGINIA: I just
burned the cabbage.
Take your meat back!
[tense music playing]
GORDON: Oh, my God.
Hey, Virginia--
- Yes, chef?
- Look at me.
I mean it.
Hey, missy.
You're no longer safe.
HEATHER (VOICEOVER):
Virginia's no longer safe.
And I was like, ha--
there is a god.
VIRGINIA: Two minutes
to the window.
No-- one minute.
What are you shouting out?
Two minutes, one minute?
VIRGINIA (VOICEOVER):
Probably, like, the worst
service I've ever had.
Like, I-- I hate--
I hate this right now.
I hate it more than anything.
I wish I was a server right now.
Where's your cream?
Where's your flour?
I don't have any flour.
Oh, my God.
NARRATOR: It's two
and a half hours
since the restaurant opened.
While some chefs have
given their best,
and others have
given their worst,
Hell's Kitchen is
about to complete
its second consecutive
dinner service.
On the hot plate, yeah.
Get her in there, jib
her up a little bit.
Service, table .
Where's the duck, please?
seconds.
seconds.
Go to table , please.
Go.
Where is that garnish?
GORDON: Last table.
Come on, make it count.
Yes, chef!
Service, please.
You can tell it's the
last table, can't you?
Continue sending that duck.
Continue sending.
Heather?
- Yes, chef?
Well done.
Clear down.
HEATHER: Yes, chef.
[music playing]
Go back to the
beginning of service.
Wow.
Extraordinary.
Everyone was en songe.
Hey!
I must say I've never started
a service off so positively.
Hello!
Can we keep it going?
ALL: Yes, chef!
Surely you must have
enjoyed that moment.
ALL: Yes, chef.
And then we come to the
middle of the service,
and then it
(EXHALES) shuts down.
I need two minutes
on the salmon, please.
Oh, come on ladies!
We were just going
everything's flowing then.
Unbelievable.
OK.
Chef's comment cards.
Sadly, mixed reviews on the
appetizers and the fish.
However, they loved
the Wellington.
Thank you, chef.
GORDON: That's your
best performance ever.
Thank you.
GORDON: You were
easily the best chef
in the kitchen this evening.
HEATHER: Thank you, chef.
GORDON: Go back to the dorm.
Have a good long,
hard, serious think
and come back with two
nominees for elimination.
Now get back to the dorm.
Thank you, chef.
[music playing]
VIRGINIA: Hey, listen.
Come here.
I don't think I deserve
to be here anymore.
I don't think I'm ready
to open up a restaurant
if I can't even
run a veg station.
I can't open up a restaurant.
VIRGINIA (VOICEOVER):
Honestly-- I mean, I really
do suck in the hot
kitchen, and it
makes me seriously wonder if
I'm even ready for a restaurant.
All right, I'm going to
give you my honest opinion.
I feel threatened when
it comes to your mind.
Your ability to think of things.
That's threatening.
What I'm doing
is I'm realizing--
Yeah.
--what is right here, and what
is reality and what is real.
I am facing the truth.
HEATHER: I commend you.
I'm not going to like--
bullshit.
So, I'm going to go up there
and be like, dude I'm not ready.
Definitely put me up there.
I totally respect
you for that.
Like--
Top four is huge, Virginia.
VIRGINIA (VOICEOVER): I
couldn't stand myself to like--
dodge a b*llet one more time.
I don't want to do that anymore.
I don't want to slide by.
I deserve to be eliminated.
So, um-- here's the deal.
I'm going to say
you and Virginia.
What was so bad about my
performance, in your opinion?
Nothing.
HEATHER (VOICEOVER):
It was shocking to me
that Sara kind of made
me justify why I was
going to pick her over Keith.
She really messed up tonight.
I wouldn't pick Keith.
I thought he did OK.
KEITH (VOICEOVER):
K-Grease can't
k*ll it every single time.
This is the first time I
had a little teeny slip-up.
You know what I mean?
So, I don't think I have
any reason to go home.
That's for damn sure.
You're not going
anywhere, so you
have nothing to worry about.
All right.
I'll pack a bag, just in case.
Well,
Well, cheers.
[music playing]
- Heather.
- Yes, chef.
GORDON: Have you
made your decisions?
Yes, chef.
First nominee and why, please.
My first nominee
is Virginia, chef.
GORDON: Mm-hmm.
Based on her performance
tonight, and the last service
we had in the times before
that, when it comes to skills
she doesn't have it.
Thank you.
Second nominee, and why?
My second nominee
is Sara, chef.
Because of her performance
tonight, as well.
GORDON: Thank you.
Sara, Virginia--
step forward, please.
Yes, sir.
Sara.
Yes, chef.
Why should you stay
in Hell's Kitchen?
Chef, I'm not
going to stand here
and nitpick on the
specific situations
that went down tonight--
Chef, I don't have enough
salmon to get through the night.
You are not serious, are you?
I might make a
mistake here and there,
but I know that I
can hold my own.
Mm-hmm.
Thank you.
Yes, chef.
Virginia.
Yes, chef.
Why should you stay
in Hell's Kitchen?
Well, I knew you were going
to ask me that question tonight
because I've been
here about six, seven
hundred billion times,
and I have serious doubts
to myself tonight.
Makes me wonder
what kind of kitchen
can I run if I can't even run
a freaking vegetable station?
HEATHER: Right now!
I can't.
I can't, you guys.
I can't.
HEATHER: Jesus!
- Oh, my God.
Can somebody help me?
Or just slow it down, please?
I don't think I deserve
to win Hell's Kitchen.
So, what are you saying?
What am I saying?
GORDON: Yeah.
I don't know.
I don't know.
You won the challenge.
I guaranteed you a place
in the final three.
And I'm a man of my word.
If you want to go,
that is your choice.
If you decide to stay,
I'll send Sara home.
I understand what
you're telling me,
but I want to be in the final
three because I deserve to be
in the final three,
and not because of
you're a man of
your word or because
of the freaking challenge.
I want to be here
because I deserve to be.
(EMPHATICALLY) I
can't help you anymore.
This is entirely your decision.
May I ask a question, chef?
Shut the f*ck
up for seconds.
Virginia, come back to me
with your final decision.
Well-- hell no,
I don't want to go.
Of course, I don't want to go.
I want to freakin' stay.
You want to know why?
Because I f*cking want to.
(LAUGHS) And that's why.
Virginia.
Yes, chef?
I respect your decision.
- Sara--
- Chef.
Take off your jacket--
Yes, chef.
--and leave Hell's Kitchen.
And listen-- you worked hard.
I appreciate that.
I think you know--
deep down inside--
you can do it.
Yes, chef.
Give me your jacket, please.
Yes, chef.
As we Say in Texas--
kiss my grits, chef.
Your grits?
- Kiss my grits.
- Goodbye, sweetheart.
Thanks.
SARA (VOICEOVER): I can't
be angry at Virginia.
This has been one
hell of a trip.
The taste of success is sweet.
Wee, wee, wee, wee.
I'm batting my
eyelashes at you, sir.
Oh, is that what it is?
I thought you were
somebody different.
Now I don't even
consider you a friend.
SARA (VOICEOVER): It's
not about making friends,
it's about winning that prize.
(HIGH PITCHED) I told you
get back in the kitchen
and f*ck off!
SARA (VOICEOVER): I came
here thinking that I had
the potential to win the prize.
And I'm worried that
maybe I'm just really not
good enough to do great things.
Virginia, step back in line
with Keith and Heather, please.
Now-- the final three.
This has been a
phenomenal journey.
Each and every one of you
have had highs and lows.
The hardest-- the biggest
challenge of your life
is about to start right now.
VIRGINIA (VOICEOVER): Earlier I
did not feel that, like, I was
meant to be here, but now I do.
I want to be here.
Period.
And out.
HEATHER (VOICEOVER):
I'm a little
shocked about what happened.
Virginia could be a threat to
me, but I'm not going anywhere.
There's nothing that's
going to get in my way.
KEITH (VOICEOVER): My biggest
problem's battling myself.
I'm not worried about
any of these girls.
K-Grease should rise to the top.
I think you guys
better get some sleep.
Good night.
Thank you, chef.
GORDON (VOICEOVER): Sara's
not good enough as a cook.
She made so many
simple mistakes.
She definitely didn't
merit her own restaurant.
Hello, sweetheart.
[cloth ripping]
Kiss my grits.
[flames roaring]
NARRATOR: On the
next Hell's Kitchen--
This is the most
difficult challenge so far.
NARRATOR: The
competition heats up
and the chefs turn
on each other.
Bitch, my whole theory
was to eliminate her.
I'm so pissed off.
Virginia's brought
out the bitch in me.
Heather, Virginia-- I
will destroy these girls.
NARRATOR: Then, for the first
time in Hell's Kitchen--
You're standing in my shoes.
NARRATOR: Each chef takes
control of the kitchen--
Shut the f*ck up
and run Hell's Kitchen
NARRATOR: --and
their competitors.
Heather, do you hear me?
Can you repeat that please?
Keith, how long on
those appetizers?
Seven minutes.
Six minutes!
One bass, one salmon.
I want it in two
minutes, Virginia.
Two.
GORDON: And what's
going on here?
NARRATOR: And with everyone
praying for their survival,
it's the most shocking
elimination yet.
And one of the chefs--
Unbelievable.
NARRATOR: --dares to
take on Chef Ramsay.
Why'd you have to
be so f*cking rude?
NARRATOR: Who will make
it to the final two?
Find out next time on an
expl*sive "Hell's Kitchen."
