NARRATOR: Previously
on "Hell's Kitchen."
GORDON RAMSAY: G!
- Garlic.
I like that.
NARRATOR: In the high
roller challenge--
GORDON RAMSAY: F.
- Figs.
Ah!
NARRATOR: --despite some
questionable choices--
Fig?
Ay yi yi yi yi.
NARRATOR: --the men--
This is delicious.
NARRATOR: --emerged victorious.
Yeah!
GORDON RAMSAY: Well done, men.
NARRATOR: But at
dinner service--
What is that?
NARRATOR: --it was a different
story for the men's team.
Oh, guys!
Come on!
VAN: What is it?
Plastic wrap!
NARRATOR: Van tanked
on the fish station.
For the second time,
more f*cking plastic wrap!
NARRATOR: But it was
Robert's raw rabbit--
GORDON RAMSAY: Raw!
Is that the best you can do?
NARRATOR: --that got the
blue kitchen shut down.
Switch it off!
You're done!
NARRATOR: In the red kitchen--
At least get
this sh*t in a pan.
That's what I'm doing, god.
SABRINA: Suzanne has to put
her fingers in everything.
NARRATOR: --despite
friction between Suzanne
and her teammates, the women
finally won their very first
dinner service.
Guys, in your face!
The ladies were more
hungry for it tonight.
NARRATOR: Dave was
best of the worst.
Dave gave your
kitchen a chance to win.
NARRATOR: And nominated--
Robert.
NARRATOR: --and--
Van.
NARRATOR: --for elimination.
GORDON RAMSAY: Come
forward, please.
NARRATOR: But Chef Ramsay wanted
to hear from someone else.
Andy.
Come here you.
NARRATOR: In the end, it
wasn't Andy's time to go.
Robert.
Take your jacket off and
leave Hell's Kitchen.
NARRATOR: And with that,
Robert's dream of becoming head
chef at Araxi Restaurant and Bar
in Whistler, British Columbia,
went up in flames.
[theme music]
And now the continuation
of "Hell's Kitchen."
I was all ready, guys.
You can't make any
mistakes, brother.
No, I can't.
I'm still here.
How many times can I go
on that chopping block
until I get sh*t in the head?
You know, I-- I got a feeling
I go up there again, I'm out.
So I need to do whatever
I can not to go up there.
DAVE: I think that Rob was
stronger during service.
Robert was a skilled
chef, and Andy
was chosen over him to stay.
So if he fucks up again,
there is no way in hell
he's getting another chance.
VAN: Andy, you better be able
to hold it the f*ck down.
Because help ain't coming.
Help is not coming.
NARRATOR: While the men reflect
on Andy's ability to survive,
the women are hoping to lose a
certain member of their team.
SUZANNE: Goodnight.
- Night.
SABRINA: I've had my
fill of Ms. Suzanne.
It's constantly everything,
just talking out of your ass.
Blah blah blah.
TENNILLE: Shut the f*ck up.
Suzanne gets on everybody's
last damn nerve.
That girl don't know
how close to being
out the door she actually is.
No, she rubs me the
wrong way every day.
Ugh.
Like--
That f*cking bitch.
She's so stupid.
NARRATOR: A new day brings a
new challenge in Hell's Kitchen,
and Chef Ramsay has
prepared a classic culinary
test for the final nine.
Good morning.
Morning, chef.
Now, the most important
tool for any chef
is the palate, yes?
CONTESTANTS: Yes, chef.
That's why your next
challenge is my favorite,
and it's going to
be the taste test.
Right.
Scott and Heather,
bring in the food.
ANDY: Anybody who
knows me knows that I
have these crazy taste buds.
I can taste things people can't.
So this is great.
Perfect for me.
Now, ladies, you're one
up on the men, so Tennille,
you'll be sitting out.
It was a good
decision for Tennille
to stay out because the worst
person on our team is Tennille,
and I probably have a better
palate than most people I know.
Good.
Let's get started.
Ariel and Van.
Let's go.
TENNILLE: All right, Ariel.
SUZANNE: Come on, guys.
NARRATOR: The blind
taste test will
help Chef Ramsay determine
which of the chefs
have a refined palate.
Let's put these
blindfolds on first.
NARRATOR: For this challenge,
one chef from each team
will go head to head
and attempt to identify
four different types of foods.
We'll start with
whipped cream cheese.
Open your mouth.
NARRATOR: The team with
the most correct answers
will win the challenge.
It's creamy.
I know what it is.
Maybe it's just plain yogurt.
GORDON RAMSAY: Yogurt.
Cream cheese.
Man, I knew it
was something-- man.
Man!
It tasted like cream cheese once
he told me it was cream cheese.
Am I done?
No, you're not done.
Ariel, answer?
Cream cheese.
GORDON RAMSAY: Well done.
ARIEL: Thank you.
- to the ladies.
Come on!
Venison.
Venison.
SABRINA: Ariel works
at a steakhouse.
She works with
venison every day.
I would say roast beef.
SABRINA: Dang!
Answer, please.
Tuna.
Tuna?
Venison.
Is it really?
GORDON RAMSAY: Pecans.
NARRATOR: Neither Van--
Walnuts?
NARRATOR: --nor Ariel--
Walnut.
NARRATOR: --correctly
identify the pecans.
- for the ladies.
Here we go.
NARRATOR: For their last
food, they are tested with--
Leeks.
Open up.
Open up.
What is that?
- Scallion.
Or no.
It's a leek.
Good job.
Well done.
What is that?
That would be leeks, chef.
SABRINA: Nice.
Yeah!
GORDON RAMSAY: Good job.
Well done.
Headsets off.
Thank you.
That ain't easy.
Back in line.
Good.
SABRINA: Nice job, Ariel.
- to .
NARRATOR: With the red team
ahead by a slim margin,
it's time for Dave and
Suzanne to face off.
OK, blindfolds on first.
NARRATOR: Both of them
correctly identify--
- Turkey.
- Yeah.
ANDY: Yeah!
- Turkey.
GORDON RAMSAY: Good.
NARRATOR: But failed to
do the same for the--
Zucchini.
Lima bean.
I'd say a baby pearl onion.
Damn.
Still to .
NARRATOR: Next up is quince--
Open up.
NARRATOR: --a fruit included
in the Hell's Kitchen menu.
We're working
with it every day.
What is that, please?
Pumpkin.
GORDON RAMSAY: What
is that, please?
This is definitely
a cooked apple.
Damn.
GORDON RAMSAY:
This one, egg yolk.
Open up, Dave.
What is that?
Squash.
Oh, come on, Dave.
Oh my god.
GORDON RAMSAY: Suzanne.
It's a poached egg yolk, chef.
Well done.
Head set off.
Egg yolk.
Man.
DAVE: I got one out of four.
I'll give myself an F.
NARRATOR: With Dave's
sub-par performance,
the women lead to .
And now it's up to Kevin
to face off with Sabrina.
GORDON RAMSAY: Here we go.
Crisp iceberg lettuce.
KEVIN: It's definitely time
for the guys to show up.
It's my turn.
I need to step it up.
I need to get some
stuff right here.
What is that, please?
Gem Romaine.
Damn.
Iceberg.
Some sort of lettuce.
GORDON RAMSAY: What type?
Like a butter lettuce, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Fresh
pink grapefruit.
NARRATOR: Both Kevin
and Sabrina successfully
identify the grapefruit.
Grapefruit.
That's grapefruit, chef.
Yeah.
GORDON RAMSAY: Oregano.
NARRATOR: But don't have
much luck with the oregano.
GORDON RAMSAY: What is that?
Sage.
Basil?
Oh.
Oregano.
Oh.
At least I was in the
"Italian family," right?
to the ladies, to the men.
NARRATOR: The women
are still in the lead.
But for this next food item--
Clams.
NARRATOR: --the men feel
they have an advantage.
He's a seafood guy.
VAN: Kevin's from,
like, Connecticut,
so you know, that's where all
the clams and oysters are.
What is that, please?
Spinach.
Spinach.
Right.
Spinach.
Eh.
Try again, scumbag.
What is that?
SABRINA: I believe it's
the ahi tuna, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Head sets off.
That was a clam.
- Oh.
Oh, f*ck me.
Damn
f*ck me.
Ladies , men .
NARRATOR: It's the final
round of the challenge.
It comes down to
Amanda and Andy.
NARRATOR: And the
blue team's only hope
lies with executive chef Andy.
Come on, Andy.
Andy, this is
your time to shine.
- We need you.
- Let's go, guys.
KEVIN: Come on, Andy.
Be a hero!
Andy's got a lot to prove here.
Don't make a mistake, man.
All eyes are on you.
Every taste right
now is critical.
Lychee.
Ooh, that's hard.
Open up.
This might be Andy's thing.
GORDON RAMSAY: Come on, Amanda.
OK.
What is that?
It's got a [inaudible]
taste, so I'm going
to go with lychee nut.
Yes!
I was like, dude, this
challenge was designed for him.
He's going to nail it.
- What is that?
Pineapple.
Yes!
TENNILLE: Now I'm
starting to get nervous.
Andy is one of the most
epicurious mamma-jammas I've
ever met before in my life.
So I'm thinking this might
be his time to shine.
GORDON RAMSAY: Well done.
Thank you, chef.
- .
Oh, come on.
Dude.
Here we go.
Avocado.
This could be Andy's
f*cking come back.
Open up.
Creamy.
Easily identifiable.
What is that?
Chef, that's a tough one.
I don't know.
Boiled coconut, chef?
What is a boiled coconut?
Who eats that sh*t?
GORDON RAMSAY: What is that?
Avocado.
Yeah!
Yes!
You go girl!
GORDON RAMSAY: OK.
If Andy gets this
next one wrong,
congratulations to the ladies.
This sucks, dude.
I can't take this
tension anymore.
It's so important for
the blue team to win.
Two of us are broken pretty bad.
We can't spend the
day being punished.
Ahi tuna.
Open up.
DAVE: Come on, Andy.
She don't know sh*t.
What was that?
Please, please, please.
Come on.
It tasted like salmon, chef.
Yeah!
Oh.
Andy!
We did it!
We won, we won, we won!
You did it!
GORDON RAMSAY: Ahi tuna.
Oh, f*ck.
Ladies, good job.
SUZANNE: The girls are
definitely on a roll.
We won service.
We won this challenge.
We f*cking prevailed!
Andy.
Salmon.
ANDY: It's difficult when
you-- you don't have a chance
to smell it, and, you know--
I still taste the tuna.
How can you not taste that?
ANDY: I mean, I really wanted
to do well for the team.
But nobody else had done
really stellar either.
So if everybody had gotten
four, boy, then I would've
looked like a real idiot.
Though I do look like an idiot.
GORDON RAMSAY: OK, ladies.
The big surprise for
you, you're going
to be heading to one
seriously amazing
culinary experience today, yes?
Yes.
Yes.
GORDON RAMSAY: Now,
go and get dressed.
Your limo is waiting for you.
Off you go.
- Thank you, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Well done.
SABRINA: Woo hoo!
I think I heard the word "limo."
Way to go, Amanda.
Way to pull it through!
Men, a very tedious
day in front of you.
As a special ahead of
the next dinner service,
we'll be serving a palate
cleansing sorbet, yes?
ANDY: Yes, chef.
Yes, chef.
You'll be making them by hand.
I then want you to make sure
all the glasses are absolutely
spotless ahead of service.
Now, we're receiving a
shipment of fresh fruit.
So off you go.
VAN: I'm pissed we lost, man.
I don't want to be
here making sorbet.
We just lose, lose,
lose, lose, you know?
[truck horn]
SCOTT: OK.
Trucks there.
The fruit's there.
Start unloading it.
VAN: Come on, chef.
We're unloading the truck,
and the girls' limo pulls up.
Bye, guys.
Bye, guys.
VAN: Man, it's annoying.
I'm trying to get some work
done, and here they come.
TENNILLE: Hey, guys.
Can I have some strawberries
for my champagne?
She
I should have just threw a
whole case of lemons at them.
AMANDA: Yay, girls!
SABRINA: Good job, ladies.
DAVE: We're making blueberry,
blackberry, and raspberry
sorbet, but the berries
were all in one container
so they had to be
sorted through.
Oh, I can tell this is
going to get old real fast.
VAN: Punishment sucks!
I hate punishment!
I've never seen
that many pomegranate.
Yeah, that's--
that's a lot, bro.
DAVE: Everybody got pretty
dirty today making the sorbet.
But it looked like Van had
been involved in a drive
by sh**ting.
TENNILLE: All
right, let's do it.
Hey!
AMANDA: This is so exciting.
GORDON RAMSAY: Hello, ladies.
Welcome to Opaque, where
you'll be dining in the dark.
Nice.
Wow.
I've never eaten in the
dark unless I forgot to pay
the light bill or something.
Oh, this is so exciting.
This is crazy.
AMANDA: Wow.
Oh my god!
GORDON RAMSAY: OK.
Can we just slow
down like two clicks?
Oh, Suzanne.
This place is
like pitch black.
Like, you can't
even see anything.
Who is that?
That's me!
Holy crap, chef!
I had to try to cop a feel
in the dark with Chef Ramsay.
The guy works out.
It's good.
Right.
How does it feel?
Amazing.
[laughter]
NARRATOR: While the
women are in the dark
about what they'll be eating,
back at Hell's Kitchen--
- Lunch time.
- All right.
NARRATOR: --the men are
happy with what they see.
Looks so good, chef.
Chef Scott brought in these
beautiful looking dishes,
and I was really surprised.
VAN: What do we have
here though, chef?
SCOTT: You have a risotto
with some seared scallops
and grapefruit.
That's nice of you.
But then he took
that beautiful food--
SCOTT: Comfit duck leg.
DAVE: --and put
it into a blender.
Oh, come on.
DAVE: It's, like, heartbreaking.
Oh, yeah.
Look at that.
He's having much too much fun.
SCOTT: Here you go, guys.
ANDY: Drink it up, boys.
Cheers.
KEVIN: I feel like
I'm going to puke.
It was just f*cking disgusting.
SCOTT: Watch out for the bones.
I can't have that.
I'll die.
You're not supposed
to drink duck.
VAN: I was starving.
I ate it like a protein shake.
That's that good.
[belch].
NARRATOR: While
the guys choke down
the rest of their
punishment, the women
are enjoying some valuable one
on one time with Chef Ramsay.
GORDON RAMSAY: Trust me.
Whenever you get the
chance to eat in the dark,
you really start to
understand flavor.
SUZANNE: I have a question.
Culinary trends are twigging
towards this new nouveau,
and how do you create
these new exciting dishes?
SABRINA: She's such a kiss-ass.
So, chef, blah blah blah.
[smooch]
I'm Suzanne, and
I know everything.
I seriously cannot take anymore.
NARRATOR: While Suzanne
sucks up to Chef Ramsay,
back in Hell's Kitchen--
DAVE: This is sort of t*rture.
NARRATOR: --the men's
punishment just sucks.
VAN: We're over there scrubbing
glasses and just making
it shine, making it shine.
[chatter]
And here comes the
girls off their reward.
Hi, guys!
They're all happy and drunk.
Went and had martinis.
We had lunch in the dark.
VAN: Giggling like
little schoolgirls.
Go on now, get!
Go on now.
It pisses me off!
f*cking asses.
[laughter]
NARRATOR: Today,
Hell's Kitchen opens
for its eight dinner
service, and both teams
start their prep.
But despite winning
yesterday's challenge,
there's still a divide
between the women.
It's hotter than
Mississippi in June.
Suzanne is annoying.
I can't stand her.
Proximity warning.
SABRINA: Unbeknownst
to Suzanne, we have
what we call the
anti-Suzanne team.
We are all working so
close together today.
SUZANNE: I have to live
with all of these girls,
and they say things
in code to each other.
It's nice and cozy.
SUZANNE: They're all
talking about me.
I know that.
I just know that.
SABRINA: If I have to
be around her tonight,
I can't guarantee
both of us will live.
Oh, girls are so f*cking
catty, I swear to God.
It is making me crazy.
Proximity warning.
NARRATOR: Chef Ramsay is eager
to address the aspiring chefs.
Let's go, ladies, please.
Gentlemen.
Right.
Good afternoon.
Good afternoon.
Hi, chef.
NARRATOR: Tonight, for the first
time ever in Hell's Kitchen,
we'll be serving a delicious
palate cleanser sorbet.
Ariel.
Yes, chef.
I want to make sure that
you're working that kitchen
and working the sorbet table
side as well, in and out.
Yes?
Yes, chef.
Unfortunately, you guys
are going into service
with one individual less.
Whoever's got a spare
moment, just make
sure you get the sorbet done.
Now, tonight my goal is
to get every plate out
of the red kitchen and every
plate out of the blue kitchen
consistent.
What are we going to be?
- Consistent!
Let's go, huh?
Yes, chef.
Yes, chef.
- JP.
- Chef?
Open Hell's Kitchen, please.
Let's go.
[music playing]
NARRATOR: Tonight
Hell's Kitchen opens
for its eight dinner service.
I'm going to have the risotto.
I'm having the lamb.
NARRATOR: In the red kitchen,
Tennille on appetizers
looks to lead the charge.
So we work together as a
team, make sure everything
f*cking tastes great.
NARRATOR: While over
in the blue kitchen,
Andy is determined
to do the same.
I'm going to command it.
I'm sure my team is questioning,
you know, can Andy do it?
Andy's going to command,
and if it's not working out
I'll jump in.
- But it's going to work.
That's my thing.
If I can't do garnish
tonight and help the team,
then I should go home.
- All right.
It's go time.
No excuses.
All right.
I feel good.
This is Andy's night.
Yeah?
Here we go.
Blue team.
Andy.
Yes, chef.
Don't start
pissing your pants.
On order, four covers, table .
Two cappellini, one scallops,
one risotto, four sorbet.
Entree, one sea bass,
one halibut, two lamb.
- Yes, chef.
- Yes, chef.
Good.
Positive energy.
NARRATOR: The men start
on their first order.
Fire now, chef.
Yes, chef.
NARRATOR: Meanwhile,
over in the red kitchen,
the women are ready
to do the same.
Let's go.
Order, ladies.
On order, four
covers, table , yeah?
Two cappellini, one truffle
salad, one scallops.
- Yes, chef.
- Pasta's in.
GORDON RAMSAY: Let's go.
TENNILLE: Let's go, ladies.
Let's go.
Hey, get another one going.
Those are too dark.
They're all good.
In my lifetime, I've probably
cooked , scallops.
I really think you
should get another one on.
Suzanne doesn't get it, man.
When I open my mouth and say
something, shut up and listen.
GORDON RAMSAY:
Where's the scallops?
- In hand, chef.
- Good.
Let's go.
Let's go, let's go, let's go.
Behind you, scallops.
GORDON RAMSAY: Nice color
on the scallops there.
Yes, chef.
Obviously, I know
what's going on.
What's the next
ticket after that?
I know how to cook food.
That's not my struggle here.
NARRATOR: While Suzanne
impressed Chef Ramsay--
Good, thank you.
NARRATOR: --over in the blue
kitchen, it's up to Kevin
to get out the appetizers.
GORDON RAMSAY: Two scallops,
one risotto, one cappellini.
OK.
Two minutes.
Do I have asparagus?
We cannot afford to lose.
We lose tonight, might
as well, you know,
start kissing everything goodbye
because the blue team will
disappear.
Chef, I have risotto, chef.
- Kevin.
- Yes, chef.
Very nice, that risotto.
Thank you, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Service please.
NARRATOR: Both teams
are off to a good start,
and the diners are
enjoying their appetizers.
Good.
NARRATOR: Now it's time for
the palate cleansing sorbets.
GORDON RAMSAY: Let's go.
Four sorbets, send.
Yes.
Hello, ladies.
- Stand by.
Four sorbet.
Who's doing the first one?
I will, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Table
, please, yes?
- Table .
Yes, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Take over.
Yeah.
Let's go.
Now.
Up.
Hurry up.
ARIEL: I have here blackberry,
watermelon, pomegranate.
We have six
selections tonight.
I think I'd like
pomegranate, please.
The pomegranate?
We made these all day yesterday.
NARRATOR: With Kevin
busy in the dining room,
Van has taken over
the appetizer station.
GORDON RAMSAY: Come on, Van.
Working hard, chef.
I was all over the place.
I was in action.
I'd break my balls
for Chef Ramsay,
just to prove to him
that I am that guy.
GORDON RAMSAY:
Asparagus, please.
Here.
Come on, Van.
That's bland.
Season, yeah.
Touch of mascarpone cheese,
little bit of Parmesan
in there.
Let's go.
Kevin disappears for one minute,
you f*cking sink the section.
Let's go.
VAN: Grab me some
Parm, Andy, please.
ANDY: Parmesan.
DAVE: Van, there is
no room for error now.
Get your sh*t done.
Don't fail the team.
Come on, Van.
Finish that up, quick.
Parm, please.
Refired.
Finally.
Go, please.
NARRATOR: Van's
risotto finally makes
it out to the dining room.
WOMAN: Risotto is
not good at all.
I really wanted a
good risotto tonight.
- My name's Kevin.
- Hi, Kevin.
I'm the guy getting--
Did you cook the risotto?
No good?
You didn't like it?
I'm so disappointed.
I've been kind
of running around,
so people have been
covering my station for me.
Without me, it was
just all falling apart.
These people rely
way too much on me.
Eventually, people got
to learn how to cook.
NARRATOR: With sorbets served
to most of the diners--
All right, what do you have?
What's fired?
NARRATOR: --the kitchens
can now move on to entrees.
Entree.
One sea bass, one
chicken, two tagliatelle.
Yes, chef.
Come on, Amanda.
Yes, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Tagliatelle.
Hurry up then!
AMANDA: Oh, garnish.
That station's the
hardest station.
You're right up front, so you're
right there with Chef Ramsay.
- What do you need?
- Nothing.
I don't need anything.
I need away.
- OK.
OK.
All of these girls
got too big of a ego.
You ask them do
they need anything?
No, I'm good.
- Madam!
I'm telling you time
wise we are slipping.
- Yes, a minute left.
- Lift it up!
Coming behind to the pass.
GORDON RAMSAY: Amanda!
AMANDA: Yes, chef?
Does that look like
an entree to you?
Oh, sh*t, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Oh, sh*t.
f*ck off, will you?
Half a portion tagliatelle.
How can I serve that?
You've disappeared again.
- No, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: No?
So why is it flat?
AMANDA: Chef Ramsay
thinks I'm f*cking slow,
but I was working.
I don't need Chef Ramsay
coming, busting my balls.
Refire to the pass.
NARRATOR: Amanda finally
cooks the tagliatelle
to Chef Ramsay's standards.
- Service, please.
NARRATOR: Meanwhile
in the blue kitchen,
the men are busy
cooking their entrees,
and they all look
to Andy on garnish
to keep them coordinated.
Andy, what's next?
I don't know.
DAVE: Andy is in that pivotal
position where he needs to call
out tickets and set the pace.
What can I do
to help right now?
You got to talk to me, Andy.
When I came back, everybody
seemed to be confused.
What are we going on next, guys?
I'm not sure, dude.
I think this is next.
They think I got to
call the tickets,
but I'm too busy trying
to figure out my own sh*t.
Where's the lamb?
Where's the halibut?
Hey, blue, blue.
I'm calling out orders.
You're confused!
You're confused!
And you're f*cking on
the end of your d*ck!
Listen to what's going,
to what's coming on order,
to what's being fired.
Listen!
Yes, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Let's go.
Two lamb, on sea bass,
one salmon, one halibut.
Yes, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Let's go.
- Are you ready?
- I'm ready.
Let's go.
- Andy, go to the window.
Going to the window.
Come on, Andy.
Fight back.
There you go, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Blue, let's go.
- Right behind you, Andy.
NARRATOR: The blue
team is back on track.
Let's go!
NARRATOR: Meanwhile
in the red kitchen--
Two lamb, two salmon,
one sea bass, one halibut.
NARRATOR: --Sabrina
on the meat station
and Suzanne on the
fish station must
work together to get their
entrees done at the same time.
Four minutes, chef.
- Four minutes.
- Yes, chef.
I'm ready, chef.
We need--
GORDON RAMSAY: You're ready.
SUZANNE: --time on the lamb.
But why can't
you work together?
We got to go together, man.
Oh!
SABRINA: I understand.
SUZANNE: Two minutes, two lamb?
It's not ready.
SUZANNE: Come on.
Let's go, let's go,
let's go, let's go!
Well, f*cking, A, Suzanne.
You know, fish is six minutes.
Lamb is, like, to .
This lamb isn't even close.
You have to function
together as a team.
- Lamb!
- Let's go.
GORDON RAMSAY: Lamb!
- Coming now.
Coming now, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Yeah.
Go.
Service please.
NARRATOR: Food finally
leaves the red kitchen.
There's blood
in your potatoes.
That's completely raw.
NARRATOR: And
quickly comes back.
Let me organize another
one, and apologize.
WOMAN: Thank you.
Oh, f*cking hell.
What's the matter?
- Raw.
Raw, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: What?
JP: Yes, not cooked.
Oh, f*cking hell.
Sabrina.
- Yes, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Look.
Raw.
Yes, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Like
it's still running
around in the f*cking field.
Is that purpose?
- No, chef!
GORDON RAMSAY: So why?
SABRINA: I should have
stuck to my grounds
when I said I wasn't ready,
and I said we can't go.
And Suzanne forced me to go.
Suzie f*cked me.
Hey, madam.
Madam, come here.
Take that.
Yes, chef.
Inconsistent.
Dry lamb on the outside,
raw in the center.
f*ck off and eat it!
There you go.
Take your own medicine.
Piss off!
Thank Thank you, chef.
Are you kidding?
Chef kicked me
out of the kitchen
and I'm not with
my team anymore.
It's like the worst of worsts.
[dramatic music]
What happened?
Nothing.
NARRATOR: It's an hour and
a half into dinner service,
and the red kitchen
is at a standstill
until the women refire
Sabrina's undercooked lamb.
Why?
Why, ladies?
Why?
NARRATOR: Only Sabrina
isn't cooking it.
She's eating it.
I love lamb, so it doesn't
matter how you cook it.
NARRATOR: While Sabrina eats her
mistake, Chef Ramsay looks to--
GORDON RAMSAY: Tennille,
get on the meat station
and cook the meat.
- Yes, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: How
long, Tennille, please?
- Three minutes, chef.
- Thank you.
Now it's two minutes, guys.
It's three minutes.
Listen, I just gave
him three minutes firm.
Now it's two minutes
and seconds.
The tables have turned, baby!
Everybody underestimated
my cooking ability.
Now I'm the bright
and shining star.
HEATHER: How long
on the lamb refire?
One second.
GORDON RAMSAY: Let's go.
Lamb right here.
Tennille!
Good.
Yes, chef.
Service.
NARRATOR: Thanks to
Tennille, the red team
is sending out entrees again.
MAN: This is so much better.
Is it better?
Yeah.
NARRATOR: In the
blue kitchen, the men
have found their rhythm.
- Van.
That lamb's cooked perfectly.
Yes, chef.
That's right!
Ha ha!
NARRATOR: And the diners
are happy with their meals.
That is really good.
NARRATOR: That is,
except for one.
GORDON RAMSAY: Sabrina.
Come here.
Service, please.
How was the lamb?
It was undercooked, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: Undercooked.
So the single message, madam.
Yes, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: If you're
not going to eat it,
do you actually think
I'm going to send it?
No, chef.
I got kicked off the line.
So fine, you know,
take your lumps.
I really want to jump in
and get back on track.
NARRATOR: While Sabrina
looks to make herself--
Come on, ladies.
NARRATOR: --over in
the blue kitchen--
Service, please.
NARRATOR: --the men are close
to completing dinner service.
Halibut right here, chef.
Coming in very hot.
NARRATOR: And the pressure
is on Andy to keep up.
Garnish!
Chef, I'm running
out of mashed potatoes.
I'm probably about
three orders short.
KEVIN: As soon as
I heard Andy say
we don't have enough potatoes,
I was like, that's it.
That will be our downfall.
I hope we've got enough
for what's on order.
Chef, we're going
to be very close.
Hey, you're very close.
Yes, chef.
f*cking hell.
It was all sh*t
with the lamb tonight,
and I'm realizing I don't
have enough potatoes to cover.
I'm done.
I got enough, I'm
hoping Barely enough.
Stretch 'em, man.
Go easy on them.
Coming now.
Here you go, chef.
Is that enough?
Barely.
Yes, chef.
NARRATOR: Andy has
avoided disaster for now.
Service, please.
NARRATOR: And the blue
team's entrees are making
their way to the dining room.
This lamb is delicious.
MAN: The lamb is great.
It's good.
NARRATOR: Meanwhile,
over in the red kitchen
the women are nearing
the finish line as well.
Two sea bass,
halibut, lamb, yes?
- Yes, chef.
- Come on.
How long?
- One minute!
- One minute, chef!
- One minute, let's go.
All right.
I can go with that lamb.
Are you ready?
- Sounds good.
I'm ready.
- Here it comes.
I got the garnish.
You got that?
One lamb, medium,
coming to the pass.
Excuse me.
Behind you.
Sea bass, Suzanne!
I need another minute.
I'm sorry.
Stop.
That f*cking-- if
they would have just--
Oh, not again!
Come on.
f*cking hell.
SUZANNE: Sorry, chef.
Come on.
Chef, I thought I
could do it, but--
Well, I'm f*cking out
to dry now, aren't I?
I'm standing here with my
f*cking pants down again.
Just one minute, chef.
One minute.
Still one minute?
Everybody buckle down.
Let's go.
We can do this.
- Tennille.
TENNILLE: Yes, chef.
And you wonder why
I go f*cking ape sh*t.
Stand here for five minutes,
see how painful it is!
Understood, chef.
TENNILLE: Everybody's
got their stuff up.
We don't want to hold up the
whole thing and then get cold!
I'm not going-- this
is not going to die here.
No, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY:
seconds to sea bass, yes?
Yes, chef.
sh*t.
f*ck me.
Come on.
Sorry, guys.
Chef, I k*lled the table.
Take the f*cking tray back!
f*ck off, will you?
f*ck-- f*ck right off, yeah.
There you go.
Here, that's you.
There you go.
Take it back.
Now we got to do
it all over again?
Thanks a lot, Suzanne!
You f*cking sh1tting me?
GORDON RAMSAY: Right now
I am not going to start
serving half a f*cking table!
No chance!
No, chef.
And now you're dragging
the f*cking kitchen!
We're behind.
We've got to pick it up, OK?
I'm trying to go
as fast as I can.
Suzanne sunk the ship.
She sunk us.
Left us on the curb.
Do something about it!
You guys, I can't have my
station be a f*cking dump pit.
NARRATOR: As the red team
starts over on their entrees,
their diners go hungry.
I need food.
Well, hopefully they'll
be here pretty soon.
NARRATOR: Meanwhile,
back in the blue kitchen,
the men are down to their
final three tickets.
OK, guys.
Away now.
The halibut, sea
bass, and two lamb.
I'm not going to
make it on potatoes.
I'm out of mash.
SCOTT: You better
find a way to make
some mashed potatoes right now.
ANDY: Can anybody
help me with potatoes?
DAVE: I'll get the potatoes.
ANDY: Thank you.
Andy ran out of
mashed potatoes,
so I rushed into the
back of the house.
I grabbed some.
I got all these potato ends.
I can make mash with that.
I just want you
to know that I am
f*cking hand-cuffed
right now because we
need to wait for potatoes.
- What's the matter?
SCOTT: We're
waiting on potatoes.
Potatoes.
I'm going to make
them really fast.
Really fast.
We're f*cking now standing
still with no mashed potato.
Whistler, here I come.
Yeah.
f*cking useless.
Hey you.
Do me a favor, yeah?
Go tell table , , and ,
yeah, we're short on mash.
Let's go.
Hurry up!
- Yes, chef.
- f*ck off.
Watch my stuff, please.
Get in there!
NARRATOR: While
Andy smooths things
over in the dining room--
My sincerest apologies.
NARRATOR: --back
in the red kitchen,
Suzanne is desperate
to get her order out.
SUZANNE: All right, Amanda.
Can you drop my fish in the pan.
AMANDA: OK.
Do them fast, man.
I got it.
Apparently Suzanne doesn't know
how to time out fish right.
So I'll help her out.
I don't want us to lose.
One f*cking refired
halibut urgently.
Yes, chef.
Let's go.
Come on!
It's cooked one side.
Oh.
Suzanne.
It's stone f*cking cold!
SUZANNE: I didn't
even work that, chef.
I mean--
GORDON RAMSAY: Oh my god!
Amanda.
I'm sorry.
Who's running the fish?
I had it on the
stove, she put it up.
She was basting it.
I thought it was ready.
You bitch.
I was just like, you got
to be f*cking kidding me.
I thought it was ready.
No, I didn't cook it.
Amanda cooked it.
You don't do that.
You-- just like, fine, chef.
No problem, chef.
Oh my god!
It's a f*cking insult. Oh.
f*cking hell.
Oh sh*t.
It's not possible.
Get another one going, please.
GORDON RAMSAY: So she's helping
you, you still got to check it.
Yes, chef!
Amanda.
Hurry up!
No more cold food, guys!
NARRATOR: While
Amanda takes the blame
for helping with
Suzanne's halibut,
over in the blue kitchen Dave
prepares Andy's potatoes.
Coming right up, chef!
Ah!
I need four portions
of mash, yeah?
Coming right up.
Give me your pan.
Give me your pan.
GORDON RAMSAY: Look at the speed
of Dave and just watch Andy.
VAN: Come on, Andy!
Let's go, Andy.
Chef Scott's here,
and Chef Ramsay here,
and I'm in between.
Scott.
Look at his energy.
- None.
Everybody else around
him is running around.
Whoa, god.
He's so slow.
Yeah, I think he's given up.
Well, you suck.
He sucks.
I'm like, ah.
Come on, Andy.
You can't give up, Andy!
I'm not giving up, chef.
I have it all ready, chef.
OK, here-- ow!
Dave, thank you.
NARRATOR: With Dave
stepping up to the plate,
the blue team manages to send
out all of their entrees.
Well done.
Now, clear down, get
the desserts out.
NARRATOR: But the red team--
- Last table.
Let's go.
Come on.
Yes, chef!
NARRATOR: --is
finishing up as well.
Can we go up on this stuff?
SABRINA: Yes, let's go.
Behind you.
Suzanne!
Finally.
Go, please.
Complete.
Yes, everything off?
Well done.
Thank you.
OK, let's be honest.
Yes, we completed a
dinner service, right?
Yes, chef.
But at this point
in time, it should
have been way better than that.
Both teams are equally weak.
This is a close one.
The winner tonight
was the blue kitchen.
Well done.
One of the best
performances came from Dave.
You proved to me tonight
that you're no fluke.
Thank you.
Don't stop.
No, chef.
One chef down, and
they whipped your ass.
Sorry, not good enough.
Tennille.
A couple of services ago,
I wanted to throw you out.
Honestly, Tennille, I'm
glad you're still here.
Tonight was your best
service by a mile.
Thank you, chef.
Clearly the best
of the worst tonight.
Well done.
- Thank you, chef.
Now We go upstairs
and think of two
individuals that
aren't good enough
to continue in Hell's Kitchen.
Is that clear?
Yes, chef.
Off you go.
Gentlemen, well done.
Off you go.
[music playing]
TENNILLE: Hey!
Today I am the
best of the worst.
I already knew who
I was putting up.
Suzanne!
You don't know how to
work as a team member.
And so get the f*ck
out of my face.
You going home, girl.
I'm putting you up.
Because?
You stunk it up.
You tried to throw
people under the bus.
And--
How did I try and throw
people under the bus?
Talk to them.
You want to talk
to them first and--
SUZANNE: OK, fine.
I really threw everybody
under the bus tonight?
Really?
Is that how it went?
How-- why?
You're already at the
pass with your food.
I just can't go, but
you're forcing us to go.
AMANDA: And the halibut thing.
Like, I didn't cook it.
I didn't do it.
I'm like, fine.
Whatever.
I mean, I would never
throw you under the bus.
I didn't feel you being a
team player tonight, Suzanne.
I'm sorry that I get intense
and-- and I get this, like--
like, urgency in me.
But I-- I really don't believe
that I was trying to throw
you guys under the bus.
It wasn't a-- you
don't even realize--
It's not urgency.
TENNILLE: Every time chef said,
are we ready, you go, I am,
chef.
- Four minutes.
SABRINA: Yes, chef.
It's cooking.
I'm ready, chef.
We need--
GORDON RAMSAY: You're ready?
SUZANNE: --time on the lamb.
And I said--
It's not about that.
It's about the f*cking team.
It's about the team!
But then-- but then--
I don't-- I don't get it, man.
Like, I definitely don't see
why everybody f*cking hates me.
TENNILLE: You don't
say "I'm ready."
You say, chef, we'll be
ready in two minutes.
Chef, we'll be ready
in three minutes.
We'll be ready.
That's what this is about.
Well, f*ck, man.
Honestly, if I didn't
have to put two people up,
you'd be going up by yourself.
Who else is up?
Amanda.
She's very careless as
far as how she cooks,
and Sabrina's had
some rocky services.
This is going to be a tough one.
I don't know, baby.
NARRATOR: The women's
performance at dinner service
was disappointing, but Tennille
managed to impress Chef Ramsay
and now she must nominate two of
her teammates for elimination.
OK.
Tennille.
Yes, chef.
First nominee and why.
The first nominee,
chef, is Suzanne.
Suzanne confirmed today a lack
of teamwork, over-arrogance,
and I do believe she is
the weakest cook, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: OK.
Second nominee and why.
Sabrina, chef.
Sabrina has't stepped into
the role that she needs
to to make the team successful.
OK.
Suzanne, Sabrina, step forward.
Before we go any
further, there's
one more person standing
behind you I need to hear from.
Amanda.
Get your ass up here.
OK.
Suzanne.
Tell me why you think you
should stay in Hell's Kitchen.
I give my full every day, and
it pisses me off that my team
doesn't believe in me.
I believe it's personal, and I
feel that that gets in the way
inside of the kitchen.
Why are you shaking
your head, Tennille?
I told her I am not spiteful.
You are not up here based
on our relationship.
You are based on your teamwork
and your performance today,
and today only.
This is a prime example
of what I'm talking about.
She was going to lead you to
believe that this was personal,
and that's what she does.
Throw people under
the bus, chef.
Right, Sabrina.
Yes, chef.
Tell me why you think you
should stay in Hell's Kitchen.
I believe I should
stay in Hell's Kitchen
because I am a team player.
I am a good cook.
I can do it.
And I can lead a team well.
I begged for
consistency tonight.
You were not consistent
with anything.
You were consistently crap.
Chef, I kept having to cut new
lamb to keep up with Suzanne.
GORDON RAMSAY: Is that right?
- Yes.
Yes.
No, no, no, no, no.
Yes.
SUZANNE: You guys, I was
trying to push, push, push.
Chef, she keeps saying
she had to push, push,
push cause she put us behind.
That's why we had
to push, push, push.
Are you done?
Yes, chef.
Amanda.
Seriously.
- Yes.
- Give it to Me
I can cook.
I'm not a bad cook at all.
Tonight, yes, I sent you a
small portion of tagliatelle.
Yes, that was stupid.
But at least I
can cook my stuff.
Can you win Hell's Kitchen?
Yes, chef.
OK.
This is a tough one.
My decision is Suzanne.
Yes, chef.
Back in line.
Amanda.
Take off your jacket--
Yes, chef.
GORDON RAMSAY: --and
leave Hell's Kitchen.
Thank you for
everything, chef.
It was a pleasure.
- Thank you.
Goodnight.
- Goodnight, guys.
Bye.
AMANDA: I don't agree with
Chef Ramsay's decision.
I really think Suzanne should
have gone home tonight.
But I'm definitely going to keep
cooking for the rest of my life
and be the best chef ever.
Right.
Ladies, gentlemen.
Tomorrow I'm going to
turn it up a notch.
It's going to test each and
every one of you further.
Get to bed, because you
need all the sleep you get.
Trust me.
TENNILLE: The whole slew of
girls was ready for that bitch
to get the hell up
out of here tonight.
Unfortunately, our
dream didn't come true.
SABRINA: Suzanne,
I'm gunning for you.
I will keep carrying this
grudge until one of us is gone.
SUZANNE: These girls are
definitely ganging up on me.
But the name of the
game is to win here.
I'm going to win
this entire gig.
KEVIN: We started out at
, and now we're at eight.
You know, four and four.
I think now is where the dog
fighting is going to begin.
GORDON RAMSAY: Amanda
was a sweet girl,
but sweet girls don't
make great head chefs.
NARRATOR: Next time
On "Hell's Kitchen,"
another chef gets injured.
He pretty much
took his fingers off.
NARRATOR: And he may
never cook again.
I need a medic!
NARRATOR: At dinner,
both kitchens melt down.
GORDON RAMSAY:
Dave, concentrate.
Come on, Sabrina.
Van, stop!
Tennille, piss off!
TENNILLE: We're screwed.
GORDON RAMSAY: For
God's sake, get a grip!
Screwed!
NARRATOR: So Chef
Ramsay makes a thr*at.
GORDON RAMSAY: Next
f*cking person, out!
NARRATOR: And sticks to it.
Do me a favor.
Get out!
NARRATOR: Again.
You and you,
f*ck off upstairs!
NARRATOR: And again.
Get out!
Get out, both of you!
NARRATOR: Turning Hell's
Kitchen into a ghost town.
All this--
I've had enough!
NARRATOR: --next time.
GORDON RAMSAY: All
of you, get out!
