NARRATOR: Previously
on "Hell's Kitchen."
Off you go!
NARRATOR: In the
calorie challenge--
ROBERT: I take
calorie bites.
NARRATOR: --the
men's performance
was an absolute joke.
What is that?
What a shame.
NARRATOR: The women
were victorious.
Congratulations.
Thank you, chef.
NARRATOR: And during the men's
punishment, Robert became ill.
Call .
[sirens]
NARRATOR: He was
rushed to the hospital
and did not return
for dinner service.
Robert's probably dying.
NARRATOR: Then when the doors
to Hell's Kitchen opened--
This is f*cking embarrassing.
NARRATOR: --in the red kitchen--
Cook the spinach to
order, you lazy cow!
NARRATOR: --Chef
Ramsay pushed Tennille
past her breaking point.
You upset now?
Because you're crap!
You're crap.
NARRATOR: And
Tennille pushed back.
You can dish it but
you can't take it?
Shut your fat mouth.
Shut me in the kitchen!
- Are you gonna keep it shut?
- It's shut.
NARRATOR: She was
given a second chance.
Get back in there!
NARRATOR: But it was too late.
Bring me up the
f*cking chicken.
NARRATOR: Because Sabrina--
Raw pork, undercooked lamb?
I'm fed up with you!
NARRATOR: --had already
sunk their team.
Yes, chef.
It's raw.
NARRATOR: In the blue kitchen--
Raw!
NARRATOR: --Andy failed
miserably on the fish station.
GORDON RAMSAY: It's
like a f*cking b*llet!
NARRATOR: And Jim--
It's like this
dead corpse inside!
Show some emotion, will you?
Or piss off.
NARRATOR: --was
asleep on the job.
Switch it off!
You, f*ck off, will you?
NARRATOR: There ended up
being no winning team.
The red team nominated--
Sabrina.
NARRATOR: And the
blue team nominated--
I have to go
with Andy tonight.
NARRATOR: --for elimination.
Step forward.
NARRATOR: But Chef Ramsay
felt that another chef--
Jim.
NARRATOR: --lacked
the heart to continue.
GORDON RAMSAY: You're
not the tin man,
and I'm not the
f*cking Wizard of Oz.
I can't give you a heart.
NARRATOR: And Jim
lost his opportunity
to become the head chef of
Araxi Restaurant and Bar
in Whistler, British Columbia.
[theme music]
NARRATOR: And now, the
continuation of "Hell's
Kitchen."
[music playing]
Are you all right?
SABRINA: I totally
dodged a b*llet tonight.
I think I heard
the whistle of it.
Ladies, I screwed up.
But give me a chance tomorrow.
- It's done now.
It's done.
I think if I put up one
more undercooked anything,
Chef Ramsay is going
to tan my hide.
I think we need to
get rid of Robert.
Overnight hospital
stay is no joke.
ANDY: If Robert was
to not be on the team,
I think we'd have a
better cohesive team.
I'm happy to lose to you.
I'm happy to lose to anybody
else, but not Bigguns.
I hear you.
[music playing]
NARRATOR: Morning arrives
in Hell's Kitchen,
and there's still
no sign of Robert.
VAN: All right.
Let's do it.
NARRATOR: But the
men are ready to take
their chances without him.
VAN: What the hell is this?
In Hell's Kitchen, man,
it's crazy cause you
never know what's coming next.
TENNILLE: I'm thinking we've
got to reach in and pull
out live lobsters or something.
Right.
Good morning.
CONTESTANTS: Morning, chef.
It's time to push each
and every one of you
further in terms of creativity.
That brings us to
our next challenge.
Scott, Heather, please.
AMANDA: Holy crap.
- Is that a craps table?
- Uh oh.
I don't gamble for a reason,
because I'm not good at it.
We're going to have a little
bit of fun throwing dice.
One for the red team,
one for the blue team.
Notice they have letters on.
You'll each get to
roll the dice once,
then you've got to
choose an ingredient
beginning with that letter.
Each team will come
up with one dish.
Just make sure the
ingredients you
select complement each other.
I don't want Dijon mustard
served over a baked banana.
Let's go.
Step forward and let's begin.
NARRATOR: Today, Chef
Ramsay is testing the chefs'
spontaneity and creativity.
In part one of the
challenge, each chef
will choose an
ingredient that will be
included in their team's dish.
Right, ladies.
Seeing as you won the challenge
yesterday, you'll throw first.
NARRATOR: They
will have to choose
carefully to ensure
the ingredients they
select complement each other.
GORDON RAMSAY: R.
Rabbit.
Rabbit.
SUZANNE: You can do so
many things with rabbit.
We can build off of that.
It's great.
Happy with that choice?
Absolutely.
GORDON RAMSAY: Good.
SABRINA: It was a good one.
You know, they're so
cute and cuddly so they
got to be good to eat.
Right.
Amanda.
Off you go.
H.
AMANDA: H. Haricot verts.
- Haricot verts.
Thank you.
Nice!
SUZANNE: Who doesn't
love green beans
with their rabbit tenderloin?
GORDON RAMSAY: P.
DAVE: As the girls
began rolling the dice--
Potatoes.
DAVE: --and slowly
building their dish--
GORDON RAMSAY: G.
ARIEL: Garlic.
GORDON RAMSAY: Garlic.
I like that.
DAVE: --it was quite
clear that they just
had all the components
of a classic dish.
Oh, H.
Ham hock.
Nice.
Right, ladies.
Your dish will consist
of rabbit, haricot verts,
potatoes, garlic, and ham hock.
Very good.
Rustic.
Great throws.
TENNILLE: That sounds tasty.
That sounds like something
you could work with.
NARRATOR: The women
have worked together
to come up with a
list of ingredients
that complement each other.
Now it's time for the
men to get rolling.
GORDON RAMSAY: Gentlemen,
you'll be having one extra roll.
Robert is still in the hospital.
Right.
Here we go.
Big money.
Oh.
H.
ANDY: I got H, and I'm
thinking Henrietta Hippo.
It's difficult when
you're under pressure.
I'll go haddock.
GORDON RAMSAY: Haddock.
Good.
Good, good, good.
KEVIN: Haddock is very
easy to work with.
A very versatile fish.
Perfect.
Good start.
GORDON RAMSAY: And F. What
goes well with haddock?
F. Come on, Dave.
I'm thinking fennel
right off the bat.
I do a dish with braised
haddock and fennel.
Dave, please say fennel.
Dave!
Fennel, fennel.
GORDON RAMSAY: Come on.
Figs.
I don't know.
GORDON RAMSAY: Figs.
Ah.
Fig?
You f*cking kidding me?
Figs and haddock.
Right.
[laughs]
Ay yi yi yi yi.
Van.
And A.
Angel-- angel hair pasta.
Angel hair pasta.
SUZANNE: Very nice call.
[laughs]
That's an ingredient.
It's not the best
answer in the world,
but hey, it's not figs!
GORDON RAMSAY: A!
Apples.
Apples.
KEVIN: So I say apple.
Probably wasn't a good
thing, but oh well.
We're already in the sh*t.
Let's get a little
further in the sh*t.
GORDON RAMSAY: T.
- Tomatoes.
- Tomatoes.
Right, blue team.
Haddock, figs, angel hair
pasta, apples, and tomatoes.
Right, five ingredients.
minutes to cook that dish.
Yes?
- Yes, chef.
Yes, chef.
Off you go.
NARRATOR: While the
clock counts down,
it's time for part
two of the challenge.
Each team must now
divide up the workload
and turn their ingredients
into an impressive entree. --
Like, I see this
smear of garlic right
here, and potatoes--
ARIEL: Scattered
around the plate?
SUZANNE: Yeah, I like it.
Our dish is solid
from the get go.
Our ingredients very much
play off of each other.
So all we have to
do is cook it now.
Let's go.
NARRATOR: The red team
is off and running.
Meanwhile in the blue kitchen--
KEVIN: The fig is
f*cking us up, man.
How are we going to
put figs with haddock?
I have no idea.
I'm hollowing out a few.
I'll dice a few.
I think Dave is definitely
compensating because he
felt bad about the figs.
DAVE: Got these perfect
little big cups.
I got this kind of fig.
Got figs for roasting.
I got that kind of fig.
Figs are rich
and, like, so nice.
NARRATOR: While the men continue
to figure out their dish--
Working hard, baby.
Working hard.
NARRATOR: --the women know
exactly what they want to do,
and everyone has their job.
No, no, no.
Keep it cooking in there.
NARRATOR: But Suzanne
wants to do a little more.
Flavor city.
Suzanne has to put her
fingers in everything.
When you turn a potato,
cut a quarter first.
The mouth from
Suzanne has to stop.
Do you want to do
this, or I've got it?
I can do it.
As much as everybody
can't tolerate me,
I can't tolerate them.
NARRATOR: Though there
may be one too many
cooks in the red kitchen--
- All right.
Now we got to get it all in.
NARRATOR: --the women's
dish is progressing nicely.
Are these ready?
Yeah, yeah.
They're perfect.
NARRATOR: Meanwhile, the men
are trying to find a way to make
the figs work in their dish.
I'm going to use your scraps.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
How we doing right here?
Whoa.
I just put figs in there.
See, it's not bad, right?
Surprisingly.
I was in shock.
I had to have everyone taste
it to make sure they were
tasting what I was tasting.
These are delicious.
Isn't that f*ck--
That's f*cking awesome, dude.
That's pretty good, bro.
When I tasted that sauce,
I knew we-- we had a chance.
NARRATOR: With only
minutes left in the challenge,
the men have finally
settled on their dish.
Meanwhile, the women are putting
the final touches on theirs.
ARIEL: Ladies, come taste
this garlic puree, please.
Great.
Tastes like garlic.
ARIEL: Perfect.
Lot of flavor.
Thank you.
I ain't ever made
no garlic puree,
but that thing need
to be balanced out.
All you taste was garlic.
I think you should
add a touch of sugar
to it, just to
balance a little bit.
ARIEL: Tennille doesn't know
what she's talking about.
This is a strong but
good garlic flavor.
Did you put the sugar in it?
ARIEL: No, it's done.
I'm ready to plate.
Two and a half
minutes to go, yes?
Oh, f*ck!
ARIEL: How's the haricot verts?
Right behind you.
Last minute.
VAN: Hurry up.
Hurry up.
Hurry, hurry.
AMANDA: Oh, that
looks gorgeous, Ariel.
DAVE: Where do you want
the figs, around it?
On top.
Just one right in the middle.
AMANDA: Oh, that
looks gorgeous, Ariel.
GORDON RAMSAY: , , , , .
And stop.
Wow.
Well done.
Right, ladies.
What is it, please?
This is a pan
roasted tenderloin
and leg of rabbit and
roasted garlic rosemary puree
that also has some of
the ham hock stock.
VAN: I look over
at the girls' dish,
it's so beautiful it looks
like it came out of a cookbook.
GORDON RAMSAY: I thought the
leg was going to be slightly dry
the way it was cooked, but no.
It's moist.
Cooked to perfection.
GORDON RAMSAY: Garlic
puree is very strong.
KEVIN: Once Chef Ramsey
honed in on the garlic,
I was hoping that
that was our one
saving grace because
by looks alone,
their presentation was perfect.
Right, gentlemen.
What is it?
OK.
We have a braised haddock
and a tomato and fig sauce.
The fig was to sweeten
the acidity of the tomato.
Very clever.
KEVIN: And then we have the
angel hair pasta on the bottom.
The dish is delicious.
Nice.
Very tough decision, because
both dishes are delicious.
The winning dish
is the blue team.
Yeah!
DAVE: I picked figs
with fish, and we won.
Yeah!
ANDY: We're like the
MacGyver of cooking.
Just throwing everything
together and all of a sudden
you got a b*mb and a nice dish.
Woo!
GORDON RAMSAY: Ladies, there
is such an overpowering
strength of garlic
that's completely
obliterating anything I taste.
TENNILLE: I sure as hell told
Ariel about that garlic puree.
I still taste garlic right now.
Gentlemen, well done.
ALL: Thank you, chef.
Let me just give
you a little insight
to the phenomenal reward.
You'll be departing for Vegas.
Yeah!
Vegas, yeah!
Plane's waiting.
We're going to Vegas, America.
Never been there.
Las Vegas!
GORDON RAMSAY: Ladies, your day
is going to be quite miserable
because today is delivery day.
Trucks are going be arriving.
So when you hear that horn
honk, get out there, yes?
We're going to be unpacking
boxes, restocking shelves.
I want both these
kitchens cleaned,
ready for our next service.
Yes, chef.
OK.
Off you go.
I'll go get some soap.
Punishments are
the worst ever.
[truck horns]
That would be for us.
Come on.
Got a delivery.
Outside.
SUZANNE: Delivery
day is no joke.
There is an extravagant
amount of food,
and we all have to carry it.
All right, here.
Let's just get it off.
Oh, fun.
AMANDA: Lemons under the
truck, under the cars.
What a way to start
off a delivery.
Oh, no!
Oh, that's cute.
All right, ladies.
We're going to
leave y'all to it.
Y'all take it easy.
I want to throw these
lemons at those guys.
Vegas, baby.
[music playing]
VAN: Las Vegas!
DAVE: This is hot.
[laughter]
Here we go, boys.
I was a Vegas virgin,
you know what I mean?
And now I'm like a wild
mustang chomping at the bit!
Yeah, Las Vegas!
Woo!
I love Las Vegas.
Yee-haw!
VAN: It said "Hell's
Kitchen Chefs," yo!
Holy sh*t!
Hell's Kitchen, boys!
Woo hoo!
There it is.
We're there.
VAN: People work
their whole life
and don't get that
kind of respect,
and we pulled it off
today and now we're here.
I think that sign's
for us, but I'm not sure.
That's us!
NARRATOR: While the men can't
wait for their night to get
started--
We've arrived, brother!
NARRATOR: --the women can't
wait for their night to end.
I'm done.
I'm over this.
This punishment, I think, has
been the worst punishment.
We have been working since this
morning carrying dry goods,
doing inventory, prep
for both kitchens.
Just when you think
your day is over--
Ladies.
Hello.
--it's not over yet
in Hell's Kitchen.
Here it is, my wine.
SABRINA: Oh, god.
No.
Let's go, ladies.
My back and my shoulder
is so sore from carrying
pound boxes all day long.
It's terrible.
So how was your day?
It's probably my
shittiest day here yet.
Get some sleep.
You'll need it.
I am so ready just to crash.
NARRATOR: While the women try
to sleep off an exhausting day
of punishment, the men have
just begun to reap the rewards
of being VIPs in Las Vegas.
Let's do it.
DAVE: Here we are at
Palms Casino and Resort,
living like kings
in a VIP suite.
There's Jacuzzis everywhere.
There is a bar set up with
a basketball court in it.
Nothing but net!
When you're cruising
Chef Ramsay style,
you're cruising high style.
It's insane.
KEVIN: Figs and haddock!
Tomatoes, apples!
Woo!
[music playing]
[snoring]
[horn]
TENNILLE: I'm sleep.
S-L-E-E-P.
[horn]
Now you know what I am?
Awake!
This is some f*cking bullshit.
I don't want to f*cking
hear it right now.
Just do your job
and get it done.
Thank you.
Have a nice night.
Night!
You see, it's night!
NARRATOR: After a
night of little sleep,
the women head down for prep.
Oh.
NARRATOR: Not fully recovered
from yesterday's punishment.
TENNILLE: Two H's.
Lot of hustle, lot of heart.
ARIEL: I don't need
to hear it right now.
The spirits of our
team sucked right now.
My f*cking back is k*lling me.
AMANDA: We're all tired.
We all hurt.
Oh, my back is so tight.
What up, ladies?
What's up, girls?
Working hard?
I feel sorry for the girls.
We were living life
to the fullest,
, and the girls been up here
working, working, working.
Oh, I'd be mad.
Ham hocks.
Pork bellies.
TENNILLE: I hope
the boys, they are
really, really, really tired.
NARRATOR: Clearly, the women
haven't exactly missed the men,
and there is someone the men
aren't exactly missing either.
ANDY: Where's Bigguns?
Not here.
VAN: Blue team, we
don't need Robert, man.
We definitely bonded
while we were in Vegas,
and we're coming back into
service ready to kick some ass.
NARRATOR: It's two hours
before dinner service,
and the men may be down a man--
Game time, game time.
NARRATOR: --but
they are unfazed.
Meanwhile, in the red
kitchen, there's one chef
the women would like to lose.
Hustle with the quickness.
[laughter]
I really don't
need anyone to tell
me that if I do
something faster,
it will get done quicker.
Why is it so funny
that I said that?
I'm not laughing at you.
SUZANNE: Oh, girls
are so bitchy.
I'm not f*cking stupid, man.
I know what you're
laughing about.
[laughter]
- Right now it's about us.
- Yeah.
It's not Andy.
It's not Dave.
It's not Van.
It's not Kevin.
It's us.
I think the team
dynamic is definitely
different with Robert gone.
KEVIN: We're not worried
about being a one man down.
DAVE: We're a four man team.
You need carrots?
I feel real good about the team.
It seems like with Robert gone,
we've been doing much better.
minutes.
DAVE: I'm stoked, man.
I love it.
I got confidence, finally.
Woo woo!
NARRATOR: But it's not
exactly a hero's welcome.
Perfect timing.
On cue.
Of course.
Of course he's back.
And it just-- it's k*lling me.
I'm pissed!
What's the word?
They said I have a
small heart for my body.
Really?
ANDY: He makes himself
look like an idiot.
I wanted to say to
him, eat a salad.
How you boys doing?
VAN: We done went to Vegas.
We were hanging out.
Now all of a sudden, he's back.
It just doesn't seem right.
What's up, fellas?
These guys don't
care if I'm back.
But that's fine.
Make sure that we take
all the plastic wrap
and everything off of it.
ROBERT: I have no friends here.
I know that.
I don't want any friends here.
Be right back.
There's no team behind me.
I feel like I'm on a
f*ring squad right now.
Preying on the weak, coyotes
turning on their own, man.
Gives me more reason to
kick their f*cking asses.
All right, anybody
need anything?
I want Robert to be healthy.
But as a team member, he's got
to f*cking pull his weight.
[music playing]
GORDON RAMSAY: Good afternoon.
- Hi, chef.
Gentlemen, good afternoon.
Good afternoon, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Right.
How are we?
- Good, chef.
Good.
Robert.
Yes, chef.
How are you feeling,
more importantly?
The doctor did
tell me you didn't
have a heart att*ck,
thank God, but you
got to know your limits.
- Welcome back.
Yes, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Right.
Tonight for the first time
ever in Hell's Kitchen,
we're going to have chef tables.
We're going to have
the most amazing chef
table here in the blue
kitchen and over there
in the red kitchen.
I put my neck on
the line tonight
because I've invited executive
chefs from both my restaurants,
two out of New York and
two out of West Hollywood.
So on your toes tonight.
KEVIN: Those chef
tables, they're,
like, right on top of us.
So I think he's going to be
nailing us to the wall tonight.
GORDON RAMSAY: And don't
make me look stupid in front
of my f*cking team.
Is that clear?
Yes, chef.
Right, JP.
Look out for my VIP guests, yes?
Absolutely.
GORDON RAMSAY: Let's go.
Open Hell's Kitchen.
[music playing]
NARRATOR: Tonight not only is
the dining room fully booked--
WOMAN: To Gordon.
NARRATOR: --but for
the first time ever,
Chef Ramsay is allowing
chefs tables in his kitchen.
I'm really excited that we
have a chef's table tonight,
and I'm even more excited
that I get to work
on apps right next to it.
Two cappellini, one
risotto, one-- sorry.
Shall we?
NARRATOR: Chef Ramsay's chefs
from his New York and Los
Angeles restaurants will
be able to closely examine
the inner workings
of the kitchen.
This is your table.
NARRATOR: Each of
these VIP tables
will be offered
menu recommendations
from the Hell's Kitchen
chefs throughout the evening.
Where you belong
in the kitchen.
Yeah, I know.
Exactly.
I want to make sure you
guys got taken care of.
Because if you don't, that
would be the worst possible case
scenario.
- Right.
We're going to
work it out for you.
- Looking forward to it.
- Thank you.
Thank you.
- Dave.
What's the appetizer
for the chef table?
Two risotto.
GORDON RAMSAY: Thank you.
Did we order risotto?
No.
Do we get any choices?
DAVE: I'm going to
admit to being nervous.
There are some amazing
chefs staring at me,
so I just got to do a great job
and just not f*ck up tonight.
NARRATOR: The chef's
table in the blue kitchen
has been waited on, while the
chef's table in the red kitchen
is just waiting.
Ariel!
The chef's table arrived
nearly minutes ago.
Yes, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: No introduction,
no recommendation, nothing.
Sorry, chef.
ARIEL: When Chef Ramsay yelled
at me, it was like, oh, sh*t.
Like, this is how it's
going to be tonight.
Ariel, nice to meet you.
Sorry, my hands
are a little wet.
Nice to meet you.
Appetizers today.
Any time that you
have to perform
in front of other professionals,
it's nerve wracking.
But it is something
that I thrive on.
Two scallops, one king crab.
- Yeah, beautiful.
ARIEL: Beautiful.
NARRATOR: Ariel begins
cooking her appetizers
as Dave is completing his.
GORDON RAMSAY: Come on, Dave.
Push it out.
- One minute.
MAN: How long on
those two risotto?
Here comes the
risotto right now, chef.
CHEF: Trooper, hanging
in with the broken arm.
DAVE: I am worried about
being the first person
to serve the chefs.
If I fall down, the
whole line falls down.
Here's two samples of
the risotto for you
to try right now.
Not bad, huh?
CHEF: Thanks, Dave.
DAVE: It felt great to get
compliments from such highly
esteemed chefs.
GORDON RAMSAY:
Very nice risotto.
- Thank you, chef.
- Good start, Dave.
Good start.
DAVE: But it felt even
better when Chef Ramsay told
me that my risotto was perfect.
GORDON RAMSAY: Stay like this.
Oh my god.
This could be a miraculous
f*cking start, yes?
Let's go.
NARRATOR: Dave has impressed
the chefs with his appetizers,
and now it's Ariel's
turn to do the same.
Here you go.
Two scallops.
- It's great.
Thank you.
ARIEL: It's definitely
a good thing
if I impress Chef Ramsay's
executive chefs because they
definitely have clout.
It's the king crab cappellini.
The priority number one for me
right now is me and my career.
Good.
Beautiful.
CHEF: Yeah.
Bon appetit, Stew.
We've got scallops
each, which is nice.
Eat scallops every
day of our lives, huh?
A bit-- bit harsh on the old
sear on the scallops, maybe.
Just slightly around the end.
They're a little bit burnt.
ARIEL: I didn't check it.
I should've checked it.
More salt. f*cking more salt.
More salt. More salt.
CHEF: Simple things are always
the hardest to get right,
I suppose.
They just weren't
seasoned enough.
Service please.
NARRATOR: Just minutes
into dinner service--
The crab's delicious.
WOMAN: Yeah.
NARRATOR: --both
kitchens have served
over half their appetizers.
Fattening, heart
clogging good.
NARRATOR: And the blue team is
ready to move on to entrees.
Four covers, table four.
Don't stop working, Andy.
You're like a policeman
staring at me, trying to give
me a f*cking parking ticket.
f*ck off, will you.
On order, two sea bass,
one lamb, on halibut.
Yes, chef.
VAN: I've had a lot of
experience with fish.
I'm a fish chef
at my restaurant.
So I f*cking can cook some fish.
How long on the sea bass?
Right now.
How do I get this out of
here without breaking it?
Very delicately.
VAN: Coming right now, chef.
Go, please.
Come back.
NARRATOR: Van has
successfully sent his food out
to the dining room.
WOMAN: What is the
thing atop the fish?
Do you have any idea?
NARRATOR:
Unfortunately, it's not
exactly what the diner ordered.
What is that?
WOMAN: I think that's,
like, wax paper.
- No, I honestly do apologize.
- Oh, f*cking it.
What table?
JP: For the ladies.
One of the ladies got plastic.
GORDON RAMSAY: Oh, f*cking hell.
Oh, guys.
f*cking hell!
Come on.
What is that?
sh*t!
VAN: What is it?
GORDON RAMSAY: You
taste it, then.
You tell me what it is!
f*ck.
You sent plastic
out to the table.
I mean, hello, McFly.
Van!
I can fire a
new one right now.
I got it ready.
That f*cking had
paper in mother--
I don't know why they have
them wrapped up like that.
Hurry up!
Get it in!
We're ready.
ROBERT: Like, somebody could
have ate that, choked on it,
and d*ed.
You want that on your shoulders?
What do I say to
the customer, Van?
I don't know.
That's-- I'm sorry, chef.
What just happened, man?
Standing there
like a f*cking idiot.
Concentrate, please!
Yes, chef.
NARRATOR: While Van starts
over on his fish order,
in the red kitchen Sabrina and
Suzanne get going on entrees.
Away now.
Salmon, halibut,
rabbit, lamb, yes?
Yes, chef.
Salmon, halibut, rabbit, lamb.
Got 'em all?
I'm holding strong.
Salmon.
Halibut.
Salmon, halibut.
Suzanne, I'm not actually
sure what she did tonight.
SUZANNE: Sabrina!
What?
You got to keep
everybody talking.
Just be peppy!
Suzanne was being fake busy.
Pretty soon chef
will see it too.
Move your ass, Sabrina.
Yes, chef.
Fudgesicle.
NARRATOR: Entrees are now
leaving the red kitchen.
One halibut.
Let's go.
NARRATOR: But at
another blue table--
Yeah.
There's a piece of paper--
Oh, not again.
--upon which my
olive crust is seated.
Yeah.
No.
It's not the first time.
NARRATOR: --there's
a familiar complaint.
Chef, there-- it's
another plastic.
What table?
Table blue.
GORDON RAMSAY: Oh, come on.
It's just not possible.
Hey, guys!
Yes, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: All of you!
Stop!
And you.
Hey, big boy.
Come here.
All of you.
I begged for f*cking
concentration.
I begged for f*cking focus.
And now for the
f*cking second time,
more f*cking plastic wrap!
sh*t!
They're not little
bits of plastic wrap.
It's whole f*cking layers!
- Yes, chef.
- Hey.
f*ck off.
Stop looking for excuses
and check everything.
VAN: I'm serving plastic.
I'm better than that.
- One bass refired urgently.
- Three minutes.
Give me three minutes.
NARRATOR: While Van
is starting over
on fish, in the red kitchen--
I'm coming on a
minute on the lamb.
Here I come then.
NARRATOR: --the women
continue to push out entrees.
What is this?
Look at me.
They've got fresh
garnish with a dirty pan.
So the garnish is left in there,
the residual bits of crap--
Yes chef.
By the time the fresh one's
cooked, what happens to that?
Burnt, chef.
Because you can't
be bothered to bend
down and get a clean pan.
- No, chef.
- Pig!
- Yes, chef.
I do what I always do.
Yes, chef.
No, chef.
Come on, Sabrina.
SABRINA: I need two
and a half minutes.
NARRATOR: While
Sabrina tries to get
control of her garnish
station, the blue team--
Service, please.
NARRATOR: --is completely
focused on entrees.
You got a cod?
Let's go.
Fire it.
Fire it.
NARRATOR: So focused
that they've forgotten
some very special diners.
Think they're going to
come by and check on us?
GORDON RAMSAY: Dave.
DAVE: Yes, chef.
Chef table have been waiting.
What's happening there?
- Van.
VAN: Yo?
Now I got to go run over
to the executive table.
I'm not scared to
talk to people.
This is No sweat.
- What are y'all having?
I don't know.
What do you got?
We have no idea.
I got sea bass, a salmon,
a halibut, and a cod.
That's it?
What do-- I mean,
what do you do to it?
All right, the sea bass is
crusted with a pistachio crust,
and it's-- it's all right.
It's not that good.
No?
VAN: OK.
And the salmon's like a--
it's a braised baby Ramon--
baby Romaine lettuce.
I got other things going
back at the fish station,
and here I am messing up in
front of the executive chefs
over here.
- Not too long, Van.
We're in the sh*t, big boy.
- All right.
I got to go.
What do y'all want?
I'll have the sea bass.
CHEF: I'll go with the halibut.
- Halibut, sea bass.
- Yeah.
All right.
Ay-ya.
NARRATOR: Van has finally
taken the fish orders.
But over in the
red kitchen, Amanda
has already delivered
the salmon and halibut
to their chef's table.
CHEF: It's actually really nice.
NARRATOR: But that,
of course, is not
the only table the red
kitchen is responsible for.
Two salmon, one sea
bass, one chicken.
Why are we dragging?
It's what really kills me.
I turn my back and
it just goes flat.
You should have salmon working.
- Yes, chef.
I do have another
one working, chef.
SUZANNE: How long
on that, Amanda?
Give me one minute.
It's like, ah, I just
want you to shut up.
I know how to cook fish.
You leave me alone
when I'm cooking.
At least get this
sh*t in a pan, though.
That's what I'm doing.
GORDON RAMSAY: Salmon,
halibut, and one chicken.
NARRATOR: Thanks to Amanda--
I'm behind you.
NARRATOR: --and Tennille--
Here's the chicken.
NARRATOR: --entrees are once
again leaving the red kitchen.
Service.
NARRATOR: Meanwhile,
back in the blue kitchen
Robert is struggling
with the lamb.
GORDON RAMSAY: Rabbit,
lamb, halibut, salmon.
Yes.
GORDON RAMSAY:
Where is the lamb?
ANDY: It's like
"Silence of the Lambs."
Everywhere just slices of lamb.
Here, here, here, here.
There's oil everywhere.
Just give me a
wipe on the ground.
Watch behind, chef.
Man.
- Robert.
ROBERT: Yes, chef.
I want a bit of explanation.
This is on the same table.
Two lamb, one
medium, one normal.
There we go.
And then meat thinner
than the bone.
I'll go to this table,
I've got a bit of I'm
not too sure there.
I swear to you that's
how it cut off the bone.
Is that the best you can do?
Hell no, it's not the best--
Well, give me
the f*cking best!
I am, chef.
ANDY: Robert's gone through
more services than any of us.
He should have this sh*t.
I need the meat to be
double the size of the bone.
I feel like sh*t.
But me giving you
% is still better
than half the people in here.
Urgently!
Yes, chef.
NARRATOR: While Robert
starts over on his meat,
in the red kitchen Chef
Ramsay's executive chefs
dig in on theirs.
The lamb's good.
NARRATOR: And the red team--
Last two times.
NARRATOR: --has the
finish line in its sights.
One halibut, one cod, one
rabbit, one tagliatelle.
Yes, chef.
AMANDA: Ariel!
Do I got the pasta?
Yeah.
Can you hold on one second?
AMANDA: My fish needs pasta.
When I'm yelling for the
pasta, I need somebody
to stick that sh*t down.
I don't know how
many f*cking times I
asked for f*cking pasta.
TENNILLE: I got
the rabbit ready.
I'm not worried about that.
I'm waiting for
my f*cking pasta.
It ain't my fault. f*ck that.
Don't start
flaking now, Amanda!
Yes, chef.
I'm waiting for the pasta, chef.
- Right here.
Coming.
Amanda is freaking out.
Just chill.
Take it easy.
- Are you tired, Amanda?
No, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Well,
f*cking wake up!
AMANDA: The pasta ain't ready.
Sorry, chef.
Not me.
It's your princess.
I don't have pasta yet.
I'm checking it.
Don't worry about it.
GORDON RAMSAY: You've
got two tables left,
and it's like giving birth.
NARRATOR: With the red kitchen
stalled on Ariel's pasta,
Chef Ramsay head to the
blue kitchen in search of--
Halibut, salmon, rabbit, lamb.
NARRATOR: --well,
just about anything.
ROBERT: I'm carving the rabbit
and the lamb right now, dude.
When you carve the
rabbit, I don't want it
shredded like a dog's dinner.
I'm going up with the halibut.
Cod's coming, chef.
Rabbit!
Right behind you, chef.
I need scallops.
That tagliatelle
coming too, Kevin?
KEVIN: Yes, chef.
CHEF: Let's go.
f*cking raw!
Ayi.
GORDON RAMSAY: All of you!
Come here, come here, come here.
Come here!
Kevin, you're starting
to piss me off.
Put it down!
When I ask you to stop
what you're doing,
you better f*cking stop it.
Come here!
Cocky.
Out of the way.
f*cking raw!
Happy now?
You're standing there
tossing your tagliatelle
to make yourself look good.
I'm serving raw rabbit.
sh*t.
KEVIN: Understood, chef.
You!
f*ck off, yeah?
ROBERT: Yes, chef.
Don't start acting
like a baby over there.
- I'm not acting like--
- Shut it!
Switch it off!
All of you, you're done!
NARRATOR: Robert's
raw rabbit puts
an ends to the blue team's hope
of a complete dinner service.
Meanwhile, over in
the red kitchen--
Last table.
NARRATOR: --the
hope is still alive.
SUZANNE: Lamb's coming.
Behind you.
- Chicken.
- The lamb is pink.
Service, please.
Clear down, ladies.
AMANDA: Yes, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Well done.
- Great ass service.
- Right?
AMANDA: Guys, in your face.
That's what you get for
going to f*cking Vegas.
DAVE: This is very painful,
to just go down in flames,
especially having the
chef table in the kitchen.
OK.
We got off to our
best start yet.
But then in the middle
of service, bam.
We lost focus.
I asked both chef tables,
OK, for their comments card.
Both chefs sitting
in the red kitchen
said they'd be happy to return.
And both chefs in
the blue kitchen
said thanks but no thanks.
The ladies were more
hungry for it tonight.
So the blue team,
you clearly lost.
Van, well, fish wasn't
your friend tonight.
I'm sorry.
Robert.
Cut the lamb too thin, and I'm
holding a f*cking rabbit still
with fur on.
There was one chef
that stood out tonight,
and he did it with one arm.
Dave gave your kitchen
a chance to win.
You moved in front of the
red kitchen with appetizers.
Dave, clearly the
best of the worst.
Think of two of your team
that's up for elimination.
Yes, chef.
Off you go.
[music playing]
ROBERT: Yes, I
had a bad service,
but I do not deserve to go home
because there's people here--
like Andy-- that are
not better than me.
I don't think me or
Van should go home.
Yes, based on today's service,
we should be up there.
Based on a collective, how many
times has Andy been up there?
Do you want weak, or you
want strong with you?
DAVE: Robert and Van
had the worst service.
But Andy has been a weak link.
Why do you think
you should stay?
I don't want to go up there.
I don't think I should
be up there today.
I think I've been
up there enough.
I'm the guy who will do
anything, anytime, anywhere.
That guy's a lazy m*therf*cker
eating Twinkies and chicken pot
pies all day long.
You've been up
there three times.
You want my
opinion, I give it to.
ROBERT: I'm telling
you my opinion.
ANDY: Hey, you want me to talk?
I'll talk.
That's your problem.
You don't listen.
ROBERT: You don't listen.
f*cking talk all the time.
ROBERT: You're going
to be a [inaudible]..
I'll bet my whole damn savings
account that you ain't ever
going to win this, all right?
Whether it be me to not win it,
you damn sure ain't winning it.
DAVE: Robert decided
it was time to just
strip Andy of all his
dignity, and he laid into him.
Has anyone told you they
hate working with you?
So what?
Suck a d*ck.
Suck a d*ck.
Suck a d*ck.
I have to give it up to Andy.
If somebody said that
to me, I probably would
have put my cast in his face.
Hey, Robert, the day you
get the success I have,
give me a f*cking call.
ROBERT: --so successful, you've
been up there three times
you cocksucker.
Oh, god.
I have to think fast right now.
If I choose incorrectly,
it could really
put me in a bad position.
Why don't you just
surprise us, Dave?
Holy sh*t.
[music playing]
Right, Dave.
First nominee and why?
My first nomination is Robert.
Robert.
DAVE: Because he had a
week service tonight.
He's had some health problems,
and I'm concerned about him.
GORDON RAMSAY: OK.
Second nominee and why?
Based on tonight's
performance,
I'll be nominating Van.
GORDON RAMSAY: Van.
Right.
Van, Robert, come
forward please.
Before we go any further.
Andy, come here, you.
Thank God.
What was that, Robert?
Thank God he's up here.
GORDON RAMSAY: Andy.
Yes, chef.
I can't feel that
standing in front of me
right now is
Whistler's head chef.
That's me being blunt.
Now, Van.
Yes, chef.
Plastic?
It-- no excuses.
No excuses.
Have you peaked?
No!
You got something
years in this business.
You can spot talent.
- Do me favor.
Get back in line.
Thank you, chef.
Right.
Robert.
Tell me why you think you
should stay in Hell's Kitchen
on the back of that performance.
My history here on
"Hell's Kitchen," never
been up on the block once.
And I'm disgusted
that I even share
the same f*cking stage with
this guy right here, all right?
Been there three times.
Not there for the team.
Always f*cking around.
Chef, could I address
that for a second?
Yeah.
If you ask, my whole team,
they'll all tell you that he
does nothing during the day.
He barely does anything.
You f*cking fly--
ANDY: He says--
--underneath the
radar all f*cking night.
ANDY: He-- he says he
"reserves his energy,"
which means he does sh*t.
ROBERT: Yeah, and then
all f*cking night,
you're on desserts,
f*cking hiding from chef.
At least my fat ass is--
I was assisting you.
What were you doing?
You're f*cking like, hiding.
Oh, chef.
NARRATOR: Cleaning up your oil
and cleaning up your lamb sh*t.
Whatever.
Fact is you don't
like being told
that you f*cking don't have it.
I don't need to f*cking
have your respect.
Dude, you don't got it.
If you win "Hell's Kitchen," I
f*cking hang up my f*cking chef
clothes for life.
- You should do it now.
ROBERT: You hear me?
GORDON RAMSAY: OK.
My decision is Andy.
Get back in line.
Oh, god.
Robert, take your jacket off.
And the reason being,
big boy, you've
had more services in Hell's
Kitchen than any of these.
And that last dish you sent
me this evening, it was raw.
You'll see me again
as a chef, you know it.
I can't wait to see you again.
And thank you for trying.
Thank you.
Andy, your time is coming, man.
Guarantee it.
I left "Hell's Kitchen" last
time because of my health.
I have pericarditis, which
leads to heart disease.
It was an honor just to
be invited to come back.
Fat boy with a dream is back.
I felt like I was under
a lot of pressure.
Robert and Jim,
you produced nothing.
ROBERT: I may have
lost it a few times.
What the f*ck you
talking about, man?
Push me.
Push me.
What did I say to you?
No f*cking way!
I almost d*ed last time
for this f*cking sh*t.
And fought fall back.
GORDON RAMSAY: Robert.
Well done.
ROBERT: Woo.
Big Daddy's back.
I damn sure say that Gordon
Ramsay and "Hell's Kitchen"
changed my life for the better.
But I'm going home
and just focusing
on my career and my health.
And they better watch
out because three times
is the charm.
GORDON RAMSAY: OK.
Get some sleep.
We've got one busy day tomorrow.
Goodnight.
ANDY: These guys think
I'm the weakest link,
so I got to get my A-game.
I have f*cking another bad
night, I'm out of here.
VAN: I got lucky.
I can't screw up.
Like, no more dinner services.
Concentrate, keep my head
down, and do what I came to do.
I came here to win.
GORDON RAMSAY: Robert's closing
plea was quite entertaining,
but I'm not looking
for a performer.
I'm looking for a head chef,
and Robert is not that guy.
NARRATOR: Next time
on "Hell's Kitchen--"
It's about the f*cking team!
NARRATOR: --the chefs
are out for blood.
I will absolutely crush him.
NARRATOR: The blue
team turns on--
Andy!
I'm going to k*ll that kid.
There's no way in hell
he's getting another chance.
VAN: Help ain't coming.
NARRATOR: And the red
team wants to get rid of--
Suzanne!
ARIEL: That bitch,
she's so stupid.
SUZANNE: Oh, girls
are so f*cking catty.
I'm gunning for Suzanne.
NARRATOR: But when
their plans backfire,
all hell breaks loose.
Why can't you work together?
Raw!
It's stone f*cking cold!
You're confused and you're
on the end of your d*ck!
NARRATOR: And it may be
one of the schemers--
Listen it what's going.
Listen!
NARRATOR: --who
ends up going home.
Dry lamb on the outside,
raw in the center.
Piss off!
Get out!
NARRATOR: Next time
on a shocking--
Damn!
NARRATOR: "--Hell's Kitchen."
GORDON RAMSAY: Oh my god.
