21x05 - Breakfast 911

[bunniefuu]

[narrator] Previously on Hell's Kitchen...

- Let's show 'em what we got
- [Abe] Get it!

[narrator] In the first
Battle of the Sexes challenge...

- Ladies, whose slider am I tasting?
- Mine, Chef

...Nicole slid her slider ahead of Sommer's...

I really need to prove that I can win

It's just a bit one dimensional for me

...unfortunately,
cementing the loss for the Red Team

Like, I know what I'm f*cking doing
and, like...

It's fine

Nicole doesn't have a clue about anything

[narrator] At dinner service...

Can I get anybody anything?
Can I do anything?

...Brett's burgers left his team
out in the cold

Raw f*cking meat

Raw, dude

- [narrator] But fortunately...
- Abe

- Yes, Chef
- That's an A on the meat

...Abe made the grade

I found a passion
to where I can make the dean's list

- Let's go
- [narrator] While over in the Red kitchen...

Mindy, let's go

...Mindy slayed her scallops

- Beautifully cooked
- Thank you

And Sommer and Alyssa...

Back room, now

Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Uh-oh

...melted down on the meat station

[Ramsay] Help me

[narrator] And when Dafne drowned
on the fish station...

These pans are too hot

There's just no momentum in here

Blue Team, take over

...the Blue Team came to the rescue...

- I'm fine. I got it
- I'm gonna stand next to you

- You don't need to stand next to me
- I do

...which made a number of chefs
on the Red Team vulnerable

- I don't feel like you're stronger
- I didn't get yelled at at all

[narrator]
At elimination the Red Team nominated...

[Ileana] Alyssa, Nicole and Mindy

...but in the end, Chef Ramsay sent...

Nicole

...home, ending her dream
of becoming head chef

at Hell's Kitchen, Caesars Atlantic City

And now the continuation
of Hell's Kitchen

What are you waiting for? Get out of here

I'm sad that my team put me up

I don't do bad work

It's really hard to stay positive
when you keep losing and losing

[crying]

So I have to fight back tomorrow
because I'm not ready to go

and I'm not going to let myself
or anyone else down again

[cries]

Yo, between me and you,
Alex doesn't like me

That's fine. I don't give a f*ck
I'm not here to make friends

Well, everybody's gonna be bumping elbows

Uh, your personality doesn't sit with him

Uh, my personality doesn't sit with him
'cause he's a calm and base person

And we're f*cking Tasmanian devils
[laughing]

We're Tasmanian devils. We got energy

- I'm like, you know. Um...
- [laughs]

But I'm like, you can't change somebody
for who they are

You know, like, I'm pumping us up

I'm trying to get us going
You know what I'm saying?

Yeah, he's k*lling it
on the challenges, dude

But I'ma tell you this now,
it's not about the challenges,

it's about how the line,
it's how you work on the line

- Hey, on the line...
- That's the real f*cking game

That's the real f*cking game

And if he could do that,
he's going to be a major thr*at

- Look at my muscle
- I see

- [buzzer sounds]
- [alarm blaring]

[shouting]

Oh, sh*t. f*cking fire alarm

- [Alex] Is that a fire alarm going?
- It's a fire alarm

[Abe] It's a fire alarm

Oh, my God. This place is on fire

It's gonna burn down
We gotta get out of here

[siren wailing]

- [Abe] Wake up
- [Brett] Hurry up. Right now

[yawns]

- [Brett] We gotta go. Go
- [Mindy] As you are right now

Is that everybody?

I'm in my pajamas. What's going on?

Ah! This is crazy

[alarm continues]

[Vlad] I think I smell something
burning as I'm running

And I hope it's burnt toast

- [siren wailing]
- Hurry up

What the f*ck? This is actually
an emergency? Like, what's happening?

How about saying "good morning"?

[contestants] Good morning

Oh, man. There are a crap ton
of firemen and EMTs,

and I'm glad I had the wherewithal
to put my shorts on over my underwear

Now, listen carefully

Fortunately,
there is no fire in Hell's Kitchen

Yes, it's early in the morning,
but as you can see,

we have some very,
very special guests this morning

And let me tell you,

these brave men and women risk their lives
on a daily basis to keep us all safe

- They look after us, right?
- [contestants] Yes, Chef!

For your next challenge,
we're going to look after all of them

They've just finished their
overnight shift, literally minutes ago

And trust me, they're tired,
but most importantly, they are hungry

My sister's a first responder in the army,

so cooking for them also makes me feel
like I'm cooking for her

and it kind of brings a piece of home
to my heart

I want all of you to execute
a delicious breakfast as a thank you

for all the hard work they do

The first team to get all their dishes
to the table wins the challenge

- Is that clear?
- [contestants] Yes, Chef!

Both my parents
are retired police officers

They've taught me all about the importance
of serving the community and discipline

So, this breakfast means a lot to me

- Let's go. Step to it
- [contestants] Yes, Chef

- [Ramsay] Let's go
- [Billy] Move

- Move, move, move
- Go

This challenge is
so friggin' important to me

- [Alyssa] Good morning, Chef
- Good morning. Let's go

[Mindy] Back home, I am a breakfast,
brunch and lunch chef

You know who's about to own this
right now? This is me

I'm % gonna take charge of this

Today it's time to win

[Abe] Hurry, guys. Get down
to the kitchen. Get ready for service

I've been on four punishments in a row,
I have not left Hell's Kitchen yet

We have to win this

[Jason] Let's go over this real quick

So you have the appetizers,

we're gonna do the cooler
and the pear salad

[narrator]
Every table will receive a pear salad,

an orange, passion fruit cooler,

and a platter of firehouse potatoes
to share

- [Ramsay] Two minutes, guys. Yes?
- [Abe] Yes, Chef. Two minutes

[narrator] For their entrée, diners will
have a choice of steak and eggs,

pancakes, or a breakfast sandwich

[Ramsay] Blue Team, Red Team,
our guests are sitting down

Let's go. Let's go. Let's go

[narrator] The first team
to feed their side of the dining room

and ring the fire station bell,
wins the challenge

Here we go, guys
Dining room's filling up

[Jason] This is gonna go
fast and furious, boys

- Fast and furious
- [Abe] Heard that, Chef

[Ramsay] Okay, fire, ladies. Let's go

Six covers, table . Six salad

- Heard? Let's go
- [all] Yes, Chef

[Christina] Six salad?

Do you want somebody helping you
mix the salad while you do the juice or...

No, I'm getting the juice,
then I'm doing the salad

- You know it's a speed challenge?
- Yes, Chef

[narrator] As Sommer takes on the salad
and juice by herself,

over in the Blue kitchen...

One order, four covers, . Four salad

- Heard?
- [all] Yes, Chef

- [Billy] Four salad
- [Sakari] Four salads

Keep going with the taters
I got the salad

- Heard
- I'm a minute and a half out on the salad

Growing up, breakfast was one
of the first things I learned how to cook

I love breakfast

Two salads walking, followed by two more

[Billy] Good push, bro

I just wanna make sure
everything goes out perfect

This challenge means so much to me

Good. Go, please. Thank you. Go. , yes?

[narrator] While Sakari sends out the
Blue Team's salads at a blistering pace...

- Good?
- Yep, thank you

Looks good

- ...over in the Red kitchen...
- Alyssa, help her do the salad

- I got your potatoes
- [Alyssa] What do you need?

All right, get another bowl working
with another thing of salad, please

- [Tara] Was it four?
- I need tongs

...Sommer is struggling to get
the salads out to the first responders

Come on, just plate it

- It's okay. You got this, Alyssa. Okay?
- I know, I'm fine

- How long, salad?
- Salad seconds, Chef

- What has to be on the salad?
- Help me with the garnish

[groans]

Dude, Sommer needs to lose
the attitude right now

Every component on the f*cking plate

Okay, I get it
You got to talk a little better

I'm talking. Every component on the plate

- Okay
- [Sommer] Thank you

[narrator] While Alyssa and Sommer
battle over salad prep...

On order, six covers. Table

Three steak and eggs
Three breakfast sandwich. Six potatoes

- Heard?
- [all] Heard, Chef

...the Blue Team
is now moving on to entrées

[Alejandro] Let's go. We can do this

We gotta get this out
We gotta ring that bell first

Come on. Let's go then
You gotta speed up. It's a salad

All right. Walk it. Here

Two salads. Behind. Walking

All right, behind

Go, Christina

[narrator] As the Red Team
finally gets their salads out...

Here comes the salad
That's why he was yelling earlier

...the Blue Team is already
bringing their first entrées to the pass

[Alejandro] Let's go, guys

- [Alex] Three sandwiches walking
- [Alejandro] One minute

- Right, how long for those steaks?
- Now, Chef

[Vlad] Walking them, Chef

This steak's f*cking raw

Hey! This steak's raw

- What temp do I want?
- [Billy] Mid-rare

- Mid-rare. What's that?
- [Billy] Rare

- That's rare
- [Alejandro] Damn it

Alejandro is dropping the ball

Let's go, Alejandro. You got this, baby

[Alejandro] Thank you

We know how to cook steaks
We've shown we're better than that

We gotta bounce back

[narrator] While the Blue Team attempts
to recover from Alejandro's mistake...

Guys, we're better than this

...over in the Red kitchen...

[Ramsay] On order, six covers. Table

Two steak and eggs. Two breakfast
sandwich. Two pancake. Six potatoes

- Heard? Let's go
- [all] Yes, Chef

...Ileana is getting battered
on the pancake station

Damn it

These pancakes are f*cking me

Gosh, cooking breakfast for all
these first responders, the pressure's on

My mom's a nurse,
so I want to win this for my mom

We need five
on that next ticket, all right?

[Mindy] How you doing on your pancakes?

Uh, I'm doing okay
I just need to get better color on them

- We're not going down. You got this
- We're not going down

Keep watching it. Come on. Turn your heat
down just a little bit, Ileana

That's a beautiful pancake, girl

I need those pancakes now
I've sent the rest

- Alyssa, I need two plates over here
- I need two, now!

Plates. Here

Pancakes look really easy, but it's hard

Come on. You got this

They're hard in Hell's Kitchen

All right, now walk. Walk them
I'm gonna get the next pancakes on

- Okay?
- Yep. Two pancakes

Go, Christina. Please

- Thirty-three, yes?
- Yes, Chef

[narrator] With Ileana's quick recovery
on the pancake station...

Let's go

...the Red Team is back on track
and pushing out entrées

That's good

[narrator] While over in the Blue kitchen...

[Alejandro] Could you double check me?
I'm second guessing so bad

...Alejandro is still unsure
of his refired steaks

[Alex] Pull

- Could you run that?
- Yes

Hot. Be careful

Oh, my good God

Hey, Blue Team

[narrator]
In today's speed breakfast challenge,

both teams are racing to deliver food
to the first responders

- Could you run that?
- Yes

Hot. Be careful

[narrator] But Alejandro's struggle
on the meat station...

Oh, my good God

...threatens to derail the Blue Team

- Hey, Blue Team
- [all] Yes, Chef

Come here

Three sandwich, three steak

I get two steak and the last steak
that comes up, is what?

- Overcooked
- Medium well

- Is that your best?
- [all] No, Chef!

- Come on, guys!
- [all] Yes, Chef

[Billy] Come on, guys

[Ramsay]
Really? We go from rare to mid-well

I just wanted medium-f*cking-rare

And boy, do those guys know
their temperatures

I think they gotta pick it up

[Billy] These guys are hungry
Come on. Let's push this

Alejandro, just get it right

Over, under, like, what the f*ck?

It's breakfast

[narrator] While Alejandro
refires his steaks for the second time...

[Ramsay] On order, four covers. Table

Two steak and eggs. Two sandwich
Four potatoes

- Heard?
- [all] Yes, Chef!

...it's up to Dafne and Tara
on the sandwich station

to keep the Red Team's momentum going

[Cheyenne] All right
Egg, sandwiches, two minutes?

- Yes
- Heard

[Dafne] Today, I am making
the open-faced breakfast sandwich,

but I haven't had my coffee,
so give me a minute

- When you need omelets, let me know
- Yeah, we'll both do it. Okay

[Dafne] I also haven't worked
with Tara long enough

to see how, you know,
consistent she is on the line

And I'm just hoping for the best

Oh, my gosh. You put these in
at the bottom, not the top. Okay

- [Dafne] It's fine. It's fine
- [Tara] But it's upside down

I'm gonna put those egg sandwiches
together the way I want to

and they're gonna come out the right way

- This isn't a top
- It doesn't matter

They're not checking what goes on top
or what goes on bottom

Dafne and Tara, they're definitely
stumbling over sandwiches,

so it's kinda worrisome

[narrator]
While Dafne and Tara try to figure out

how to stack a breakfast sandwich...

- It's fine. Look, all you do is flip it
- [Dafne] Yeah

...over in the Blue kitchen...

- Can I have the New York strip, please?
- [Alex] Yes, Chef

Do these feel fine?

Those feel fine
Let's do it, Chef. Right here

Okay, they're good

Hot, behind. Walking

[Ramsay] Service, please

[narrator] As the Blue Team finally
sends out orders of steak and eggs...

- ...over in the Red kitchen...
- Okay, give me the egg right here

- Like, right here?
- No, I mean the other way. Flip it

...Dafne and Tara
are still not seeing eye to eye

on how to stack the breakfast sandwiches

- [Tara] Sausage, then bacon
- [Dafne] I know

I don't know what's going on
with the breakfast sandwiches

Some of 'em are upside down
Some of 'em are inside out

- Dude. I'm, like, losing it right now
- Oh, my God. Okay

Making a breakfast sandwich,
it's not rocket science. It's not hard

I just hope that all their food is hitting
the window just as well as mine is

[Dafne] All right, walking

Two sandwiches

[narrator] After a brief setback...

Service, please. Go

...the Red Team's breakfast sandwiches

finally reach the hungry first responders

This was definitely worth
the wait. It was

[narrator] And now both the teams
are racing to finish first,

as they each work their final tickets

[Ramsay]
On order, fire, six covers. Table

Two steak and eggs. Two pancake
Two sandwich, all day

- Yes, Chef!
- How long, meat?

Three, give us three

[Alex] Making more bananas

Sausages are resting. Eggs are good

We got this thing, man. Like,
breathe, focus, and cook. We got this

Let's ring that bell, baby
Let's ring that bell

- Last table. Yes?
- [all] Yes, Chef!

- Okay, now last table
- [Sakari] Yes, Chef

[Brett] Yes, Chef

- [Tara] Come on, girls. Come on!
- This is the last ticket. Let's get this

We need to win this for them
We're winning this for them

- We gotta go!
- Are you sure we can't slice 'em?

- [Billy] Come on
- [Alejandro] Grab two

I need seconds on that, all right?

[Ileana] Thirty seconds, ladies

- Come on, ladies
- They're on their last ticket too

- Coming in with the next three
- I need seconds

- We got food dying in the windows
- Plating potatoes

- We got this
- [Sommer] Top it off with that

[Cheyenne] Let's go. Push

Come on, boys. We're better than this

Guys, how long to the window?

Ladies, well done
Ring the bell. Tara, please

- [Ileana] Ring the bell
- [Alyssa] Yeah, ladies!

[Dafne] We got that one. Yes

- Good, job
- Yes. Yes!

Right now, I'm pissed
We shouldn't have lost

Sending up bad steaks,
raw steaks, overcooked steaks

It's embarrassing

Uh, ladies and gentlemen,

I can't tell you how important
this breakfast was for all of us,

thank you for keeping us all safe /,
and for all you do for the community

- Uh, ladies, congratulations
- [Red Team] Thank you, Chef

Get ready to party

I'm throwing you
the ultimate Hollywood Hills party

from the comfort
of your own palatial mansion

Whoa!

- Wow
- [Ramsay] You'll enjoy sunbathing,

sipping cocktails by the pool,

but I've got
a very special surprise for you

You'll feast on Korean-Mexican fusion

catered by Kogi from pioneering chef,
Roy Choi

- Oh, my goodness
- Oh, my God

- Wow
- Yeah

Tara, Mindy,
you desperate to get out of here?

- Oh, yes, Chef
- It's crazy

It must be a blessing 'cause
you haven't left Hell's Kitchen yet

- [Tara] Haven't left. Very excited
- [Mindy] We're ready

[Tara] I get to leave Hell's Kitchen

I get to actually get out of the dorms
and go on a reward

[sighs]

This is amazing

Whilst the Red Team are partying
like the A-listers,

Blue Team,
you'll be doomed on the D-list today

The D stands for dumpster
'cause today is trash sorting day

You need to get in all those dumpsters
and separate the trash

A little warning,
these bins have been filling up

It's rancid

Alejandro and Alex, you have
those very powerful Punishment Passes

Take a look at the Red Team

and think about if you want to play
that Punishment Pass,

who would you want to swap out with?

Oh, my God

I swear, if I get swapped out,
I am going to cut somebody

I have not left this kitchen

Alejandro, are you going to the Hills
or you going to the dumpster?

Chef, I'm a firm believer that if you fail
as a team, you go down as a team,

so I am not going to use it

[Ramsay] Okay, Alex,
are you going to the Hollywood Hills

or you diving deep into those dumpsters?

Dumpster diver for life, Chef

[Mindy exhales]

Ladies, what you waiting for?
You got an exciting afternoon. Get out

- Oh, my God
- [Mindy] Bikini party

I really can't believe it
Red Team, like, let's go

Let's keep this momentum going

Like, we needed this. I'm so happy

[sighs] Gentlemen,
head back into the dorms,

get changed
because you are going to stink

Yes, Chef

It really sucks seeing these girls
get so excited to leave

I'm so jealous

And now it's time
to put our big boy pants on

and take this punishment on the chin

[all] Yes!

[all chanting] Red Team! Red Team!

Oh, yes! I'm so happy right now

I needed the feeling to win
and I'm ecstatic

We're loving this moment

[all screaming]

- Yes!
- [Sommer] Let's go!

So we're gonna have two people build
this compost box,

and then the rest are gonna sort

Recycling, trash, compost

[Vlad] I gotta say, this is probably
the worst thing I've ever had to do

- [Billy] The wind's blowing this way
- [Vlad] Oh, my God, dude

There's the fish guts

It's literally fish juice that's been
sitting there and it smells God-awful

[Billy coughing]

I love fish and whatnot, but, man

[groans, coughs]

[Vlad] They're sharp too

I am, like, steering clear
from fish for a while

- Ah, dude, in my clog
- [Vlad laughing]

You assh*le

Billy, it wasn't on purpose

Bro, come on

What a douche

[Sommer] Let's go, girls

- Hey
- Oh, my God

- [Dafne] Damn, this is awesome
- [cheering]

- [Dafne] Oh, my God. I'm so excited
- [Ileana] What? Yes, indeed

Holy crap
I live here and I've never seen this

I can see my house from here
and I live in Virginia

Wow. Look at the snow in the mountains

[Tara and Sommer] Oh, my God

- This is wild
- This is ridiculous

I don't have words for how cool this is

Like, beautiful views. All of Los Angeles

Absolutely insane

A three is a ringer, and one if you touch

I got a point, guys

[Ileana chattering]

- [cheering]
- [Tara] Yeah!

I'm supposed to be here
bonding with my team

and I just find it hard for me to fit in

because of my personality clash
with Sommer

[cheering]

[Sommer] Yeah, I'm trying my best

I definitely kind of feel like
a bit of an outcast in a sort of sense

Winning today is amazing,
but I'm a little bit worried about Alyssa

Uh, it's really k*lling my vibe,

but nothing's going to stop me
from having fun

[sighs] This is delicious

That's some nasty-ass sh*t

[retches]

[groans]
It's getting worse down here, huh?

- Secure five
- [Alex] Very clear, concise instructions

- A lot of slats and battens
- [Abe] Yeah, that's it

I don't speak slat and batten

[Billy] That paper could be composted

No, I think they both slide

[Vlad] You need to hurry up
with those compost bins

[Abe] We're coming

I'm not Tim Allen
I'm not Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor

I don't know how to build a compost bin

Doing the best I can

Alex, feel free
Get right up in there, bro

It is taking them too damn long
to put this compost bin together

I could've had that compost bin
built in half the time

as these two -year-old ding-dongs

Go get in the fish guts, bro,
like we've been

[Alex] Oh, my God

Billy just doesn't quit
He just does not quit

Come on, guys

[Alex] Billy, just stop talking

- [Abe] Shut the f*ck up, Billy
- Yo

Abe and Alex over there taking their time
building this compost

Chilling over there, sniffing wood,
while I got my friggin' nose up fish guts

It's not gonna happen
I'm not gonna shut up

You gonna get in there, pretty boy,
or what?

- Yes. I'm going to get in there
- All right. Come on, bro

You making enough enemies, Billy
Just keep it quiet, brother

[Billy] This is brutal over here

I don't care. Y'all wanna get over here
and switch up? Come on

I'm not no carpenter

It's miles an hour, % of the time

- Yo, Home Improvement, we almost there?
- [Alex] Shut up, Billy

[Cheyenne] Oh, my goodness

[Dafne] Wow

Kogi is one of the best food trucks
in Los Angeles

Oh, my God. This looks amazing!

I see pork tacos,
chicken tacos, short rib tacos

I want all of that

This is nice

You won't hear me speak
in about five minutes

That's how long it's gonna
take me to devour this

This food is... One to ten? It's a ,

So good

- Y'all ready for service?
- [all] Yeah

- [Sommer] Nobody is going home tonight
- I'm done trimming the fat on teams

We've trimmed too much
We've been too many... We're done

- There's no fat left on this team
- [Tara laughs]

I'm finally feeling relaxed
and stress-free

But in the back of my mind,
I know there's some tension

I just want to bond together
over this amazing experience

[Tara] Right, everybody, cheers to that

[all] Cheers

[Abe] You can't run your mouth
when we're doing punishments

- [Billy] You know what, I'm saying...
- You could bust chops

- You could bust chops...
- [Billy] Everyone busts my balls all day

And as soon as I bust
a couple of balls here and there...

- [Abe sighs]
- ...you know, I'm the bad guy

Billy, Billy, Billy, Billy, Billy

Billy. Billy

I wasn't trying
to bust your balls directly, bro

You're burning your bridges,
you're digging your ditch, man

- Yeah, but just find the place to do it
- [Billy] All right, bro

I wanna see the best in people
But it's getting to the point

that I wish I'd just let him
walk off the edge himself

- You're pissing everybody off
- Right

It wasn't just me

Like, I'm like, "Billy, stop."
You know what I'm saying?

- No, I hear you, bro. I mean... Okay
- So, I'm just...

No, I appreciate the feedback, of course

[narrator]
After two very different afternoons...

[Cheyenne] Everyone, practice something
on your station. Let's go

...both teams are back in the kitchens
to prep for dinner service

[Abe] Let's go!

Roll out some of these...

You don't need to use this

Mindy, no using this
You don't need to use this

- You giving callbacks to Chef?
- Yeah

I'm gonna look here

- No, I'm saying when he calls
- When he calls, yes

- Matthew
- Yes, Chef

- Open Hell's kitchen, please. Let's go
- Yes, Chef

[narrator] Once again, Hell's Kitchen is
the number one reservation in Los Angeles

[chattering]

See, you could learn a few things

[narrator] The dining room is full
of celebrity diners

- and others looking to celebrate
- A little something for you here

- Little bubbles. Yeah
- Wow. Yeah

- Congratulations
- [bride] Thank you

I thought you wouldn't mind

Here we go, ladies
Four covers, table . Two risotto

- Two flatbreads. Yes? Let's go
- [all] Yes, Chef

- How long? Two risotto, two flatbread?
- [Tara] I'm waiting for flatbread

Once those drop,

- it'll be four minutes out
- [Sommer] Heard

- Get the lobster down now. Okay
- We have it down

No. Roll out new ones

[Alyssa] This is my first time on apps

I'm feeling nervous just because
I was up for elimination last night

[Mindy] Two risos. Two flatbreads, yes?

- Yes. Two risos. Two flatbread
- All right

[Alyssa] Give me thirty seconds
and I'll have 'em in the oven

I know people think I'm not a strong cook,

but I want to show my team,
I do have what it takes

- [Mindy] What can I do to help?
- [Alyssa] I'm good

[Cheyenne] My worst nightmare
is Alyssa and Tara on a station together

So, I'm just hoping one of them
will speak up and be a leader

- [Alyssa] I'm like seconds on this
- [Cheyenne] I'm definitely a bit worried

Where's the cheese?
Did you not put the cheese on?

- No, we are, Chef
- Come on, young lady

[Sommer]

- Chey, can you walk?
- [Cheyenne] Walking now

[Tara] Two risotto walking

[Ramsay] Lobster, you good?

- Lobster's coming right now
- [Cheyenne] To you

- I'm walking with two flatbreads
- [Cheyenne] You're good. Go

Straight up, please

[narrator] While Alyssa, Tara and Cheyenne
managed to come together

to get the Red Team off
to a respectable start...

...Chef Ramsay is hoping
for the same in Blue

On order, fire. Four covers, table
Two carbonara. Two scallops, yes?

- [all] Yes, Chef
- Abe, gotta go

- Yes, Chef
- Apps, I'm going with you on two scallops

[Alejandro] Two carbonara. Two scallops

Five minutes on carbonara

I got the count on this one, guys

Before coming to Hell's Kitchen
I never really made carbonaras,

and they're very tricky

- [Alex] You're gonna need to work that
- [Abe] Yeah

So, you know, I feel confident,
but I'm still nervous

because I gotta get that rhythm

As soon as I get that, I'm golden

Should have roughly four minutes
to the window

- Yes?
- Okay, I'm counting

- I have to count down. Let me count, okay?
- Okay

No, I don't have nothing going
on over here. Okay?

- Please don't come over here and...
- [Ramsay] Abe!

Got slammed there

- Yes, Chef
- [Ramsay] Alejandro slides down

- Teamwork. Come on. Okay?
- Yes, Chef. I got it

[Alex] Sometimes Abe comes off
a little bit combative

He's just a lot

About to walk now. Walking now

- Scallops walking
- [Sakari] Go. Take it

f*cking hell. Abe

[narrator]
It's minutes into dinner service...

- f*cking hell
- ...and Abe's carbonara

has just been delivered to Chef Ramsay

Abe

Touch that. You know, it's undercooked
I'm telling you

Touch it. Taste it. Come on
You can just see with your eyes

sh*t!

It's like a pasta... I got it

Is that what you think
we would do in Atlantic City?

No, Chef. No, Chef

Let's go

Bounce back, Chef

- Keep it on that...
- You have to keep it on and off bro

[Vlad] We're all waiting on Abe

He's got one dish, pasta carbonara
Easiest thing on the menu

And at this moment, it's hurting us

Come on, Abe. Let's go

[Brett] It should be there

- Is it there?
- No, I'm just trying not to overcook it

- Ten more seconds, Chef
- Ten more seconds

Two carbonaras, walking to the window

- Walking to the window
- [Ramsay] Let's go

Service, please

Oh, come on

- A goat cheese
- Really creamy

Amazing

[narrator] With Abe's carbonara making
a strong impression on diners,

over in the Red kitchen...

Four covers. Table five
Two Wellington. Two lamb

- Yes, Chef
- [Ramsay] Let's go

...Ileana and Dafne are trying
to find their rhythm on the meat station

- [Dafne] Sear two lamb? Okay
- Yep

It's my first time on meat station,
and I'm a little uneasy going into it

But I've got Dafne right beside me

Sear it first on the fat side. Yep

Working meat station is a song and dance

You gotta sear it
You put it in. You pick it up

Behind

Watch that for me

That's the lamb? Can I feel it?

- [Ramsay] How long, Red Team?
- Walking, Chef

[Dafne] Sauce, behind

- Behind
- Up, Chef

All right. Dafne, Ileana, come here

Yes, Chef?

Look how perfect that cook is

- I want all of them like that, okay?
- Yes, Chef

- Stop panicking. You've set the bar
- Yes, Chef

[Ileana] Chef Gordon Ramsay,

the best chef in the world
walking the earth right now

is complimenting my food

I'm on cloud nine,
I feel so good about it

[narrator] With the diners singing
the Red Team's praises...

On order. Six top. Two salmon
Two New York strip. Two Wellington

- Yes, Chef! Six minutes out
- Two Wellington

...Vlad is trying to take charge
of the meat station in Blue

Stop brushing lamb
Get two Wellingtons in

Heard that

[Billy] Tonight,
I'm stuck on meat station with Vlad

You know, he's a young buck
and thinks he f*cking knows it all

But guess what, dude,
I've been around the block

Wellingtons going in the hole

I've got this. I know this station
like the back of my hand, bro

[Vlad] How many Wellies you got in?

- Two, right?
- [Billy] Yep

Stress levels are high right now
because Billy's on my station

I'll let you know when things are resting

- But you're keeping a time on this, right?
- [Billy] Yep

He's a ticking time b*mb
that I have to control

Two minutes on two strip,
two salmon, one Wellie

So, am I cutting, bro?
Tell me when to cut

You're not cutting anything
You gotta listen too, man

- Thirty seconds and we're walking
- Thirty seconds, Wellie

How long, Blue Team?

- No answer
- Walking salmon

- Two strip. One Wellie
- Sending garnish right now, Chef

Where's the other Wellington?

Two salmon. Two New York strip
Two Wellington. I've got one Wellington

- Sorry, Chef
- [Ramsay] Two salmon

Two New York strip. Two Wellington

- Yes, Chef
- Help me f*cking out

- I'm sorry, Chef
- Won't happen again, Chef

- [Alex] Run it. Run it with sauce. Go
- [Alejandro] Go!

Y'all got to answer, dude
Y'all gotta talk

- [Billy] I asked him
- We've been talking the whole time

- No
- Two salmon. Two strip. Two Wellington

- I was told one Wellington
- Two New York strip

Two Wellington. Two salmon

- That was it
- Yes, Chef

You stand there
like dummies with one Wellington

- How do you miss it?
- I'm sorry, Chef

Bro, you told me one Wellington

Two minutes on two strip,
two salmon, one Wellie

Vlad, you f*cking b*rned me

I was told one Wellington, bro

- You gotta let me know, okay?
- Yep

[Ramsay] Go

[narrator]
While the Blue Team attempts to...

- Bounce back,
- ...over in the Red kitchen...

On order. Four covers. Table

- Two strip. One salmon. One halibut
- [all] Yes, Chef

[Ileana]
Two strip. One salmon. One halibut. Heard

...Cheyenne on fish is trying
to keep the ladies' momentum going

- Two strips. Four minutes
- Heard

We are a well-oiled machine
Everybody's working together

All right. Dropping halibut

I hope we can just keep it up

Two strip. One halibut. One salmon, yes?

I don't have a salmon on... on ready

Hey, I need six

- Don't start knocking backwards
- [Cheyenne] Yes, Chef

- What happened?
- The salmon wasn't on fire, Chef

So those New York strips
are gonna be overcooked now

No, Chef

- [Ramsay] So, six minutes from now
- Yes, Chef

- Because you forgot to put the salmon on
- Yes, Chef

Oh, my God Almighty

[Ileana] I don't know where
the miscommunication is,

but let's not drop the ball now

That salmon better
be some f*cking perfection

[narrator] While Cheyenne tries to
get back on track on the fish station...

I'd like to send a sh*t
over to the bachelorette table

Give them a sh*t

- [bachelorette] Cheers!
- [cheering]

[all cheering]

...over in the Blue kitchen...

On order, fire. Four covers. Table

- Two halibut, two lamb
- [all] Yes, Chef

...Chef Ramsay
has another assignment for Billy

[Ramsay]
Billy, fire table. Three desserts

- Three desserts. Heard, Chef
- I got this, Billy

[Vlad] I'm feeling incredibly confident
cooking the proteins tonight

I'm ready to show Chef Ramsay

that I do have a voice
and I am a leader in the kitchen,

and we're definitely
gonna bring this home

Lamb. How long?

On my two halibut, how long?

Talk to me

- I'm going with meat...
- [Alejandro] Lamb. How long?

- ...on two halibut
- Yes, okay. Sorry

My problem with Vlad is,
he's not paying attention to anybody else

[Vlad] Lamb's ready to go

- Minute and a half
- All right, I'm ready

He's walking garnish. I'm walking lamb

- Not yet. Minute and a half
- Minute and a half. Listen to the time

Vlad doesn't have a voice,
and that's a problem

- [Sakari] Two halibut
- [Vlad] I'm walking lamb

- Walking lamb
- Coming in, Chef

Oh, man

Come here, Blue Team

[narrator] It's over minutes
into dinner service...

[Ramsay] Oh, man

- Come here, Blue Team
- ...and a lack of organization

- on the meat station...
- [Ramsay] What temperature's that lamb?

- [Alex] Mid-well
- ...has put Vlad and Billy on the hot seat

Come on. I want two pink lamb!

- [all] Yes, Chef
- Let's go

I didn't let this station slip
I got pulled over to desserts

- Billy, fire table. Three desserts
- Three desserts. Heard, Chef

I got this, Billy

It wasn't me, man. It was Vlad

Do you got the lamb
so I can do desserts, bro?

We're gonna finish this strong, guys
Come on

- Strip. Halibut. Salmon, yes?
- [Cheyenne] Yep, seconds, Chef

Garnish is in the window

- [Mindy] Garnish is in the window, Chef
- [Dafne] I'm walking

Behind

Chef

[Cheyenne] Walking salmon

Hot pan

Man, beautiful cooking there
f*cking hell, lovely

Service, please

[narrator] With Cheyenne redeeming herself
in Red, over in the Blue kitchen...

I mean, feel it
This one's definitely ready

- [Brett] That one feels very under
- [Alex] Can you sell that one?

- [Brett] That one's close
- [Abe] This one's ready

- [Vlad] Yeah
- [Alex] Sell those two. Go

- [Vlad] Yeah, all right. Take sauce
- Go! Sauce, go!

[narrator] ...Vlad is hoping
for some redemption as well

That's pink lamb. Finally

- [Abe] Yes, Chef
- Yes, Chef

[narrator] With Vlad now
out of the weeds on the meat station...

So, Alex, on the ticket that's fired,
that's one strip, one lamb...

- Two halibut. Yes
- [Vlad] And two halibut

...both teams are full speed ahead
on their last tickets

- Walking chicken
- All right, walking halibut

- [Ramsay] Halibut's beautifully cooked
- Great job, ladies

- Garnish walking
- Walking salmon

Walking two Wellington. Chicken is up

- [Ramsay] Sakari
- [Sakari] Yes, Chef

- That salmon's cooked beautifully
- Thank you, Chef

Mine's very good

Finished another service, guys. Great job

That is what I call a service

The best service so far
in this competition

But there was one kitchen
that had the edge

Congratulations,

- Red Team
- Yes!

[Alyssa] It feels great to win tonight

You know, the ladies deserve this win

And I'm finally ready to see
one of those guys go home

It's about damn time

I need the Blue Team

to think about the three weakest chefs
on their team

Come back to me with three nominees
Is that clear?

Yes, Chef

Good. Hurry up

I definitely don't feel like
I deserve to go up

Billy was the weakest link,
and we would all be stronger

without Billy on our team

[Sakari] Guys, we're voting
for the three weakest chefs,

however you want to base that off of

[Brett]
Whatever happened with the Wellingtons?

[Billy] That one Wellington was up there

It was supposed to be two,
and Vlad told me one

I would have been more comfortable
without Billy on that station tonight

Those two lamb

You know, I didn't put 'em in the oven

Yeah. In my defense,
Chef called me over to desserts

Meat station was fine up until then, so...

Vlad, you need to make sure you own up
to your mistakes, bro, and you know it

Because of how service went tonight,
I think that it's fair for meat,

and then the third, is the person
we feel might be the weakest chef

But for me,
the two guys on meat have to go up

- I mean, obviously
- f*ck, man

So, my vote right now
is going to be Billy

It's going to be Vlad

- And it's going to be Alejandro
- [Alex] I agree

You had the mess up on steaks
this morning. There was a confidence slip

Unfortunately, it's a stiff competition
I'm gonna go with Abe

Yesterday and today, when I hop over
and try to help, it's just like,

"Hey, man, I got it. It's all good."
You just lashed out

No, I don't have nothing going
on over here. Okay?

- Please don't come over here and...
- [Ramsay] Abe!

Got slammed there

- Yes, Chef
- [Ramsay] Alejandro slides down

- Teamwork. Come on. Okay?
- Yes, Chef. I got it

You know, you were behind on carbonaras...

- What today?
- Today and yesterday, whatever

It just comes off a hair combative
Sometimes. That's it

- We're excited, and I do...
- You have a very strong personality

[Brett] I'm looking at
overall chemistry with the team

and how things
are gonna go moving forward

- I'm gonna vote Abe
- I don't know. Why would you pick me?

I had two little carbonaras come back

But I've been solid
this whole competition

I do feel like sometimes you feel like
I'm telling you what to do, and I'm not

When I've said, like, "Hey, man,
turn that pan down. Your pan's smoking,"

you're like, "I got it."
But your pan's about to combust

[Abe] It goes back and forth
You know what I'm saying?

If you tell me something in the kitchen,
I take it

I take everything under consideration
I don't think I have an ego at all

[Abe] Alex, he said he doesn't
have an ego, but he does have his ego

'Cause he does think he's better than me,
smarter than me. I don't give a sh*t

I think I'm better than him

because of my passion,
because of my drive

[Alex] We have to pick a third nominee

Well, finally!

I got a good service,

but the Blue Team lost

and the competition must continue

Sakari

Blue Team's first nominee and why

Our first nominee, Chef, is Vlad

We thought that the meat station
struggled tonight, Chef

Blue Team's second nominee and why

Our second nominee, Chef, was Billy

We felt that he was also
a part of the meat station,

which was the struggling station
for tonight, Chef

[Ramsay] Okay

Blue Team's third nominee and why

Our third nominee, Chef...

Alejandro

We just looked at the entire day, Chef,

and we felt that the meat station
this morning struggled,

which Alejandro was in charge of

Billy, Vlad, Alejandro,
step forward, please

Billy,
why should you stay in Hell's Kitchen?

[Billy]
Chef, I'm a fighter that will bounce back

I can promise you that

And I bring a lot of energy to the team

I got tons of passion and love

Tonight's service,
dropped the ball at the end. Why?

The meat station was in cruise control

I went over to do some desserts,
like you asked, Chef,

and it seemed like it started
to fizzle after that, Chef

So, when you jumped on desserts,
that's when it went down

- Yes, Chef
- No, Chef

So just so I'm clear

Whose responsibility was it,
the overcooked lamb?

One of you tell me the truth

- It was Billy, Chef
- It was Billy

[Billy] I mean, I communicated with Vlad
and he seemed to think it was fine, Chef

[sighs]

Vlad,
why should you stay in Hell's Kitchen?

Chef, I definitely took
the leadership role on the meat station

I cook beautiful proteins,
I have great skills in the kitchen,

and I'm not ready to leave, Chef

Alejandro,
why should you stay in Hell's Kitchen?

[Alejandro]
I feel like I'm a great leader

Obviously, today was my fault
I dropped the ball big time

But I'm a firm believer
that you can't be judged by just one day

You run a very successful
restaurant back home

That was a big letdown

This is hard

My decision is...

Alejandro

- Young man, get back in line
- Thank you, Chef

The person leaving Hell's Kitchen is...

Nobody

- Thank you, Chef
- Both of you back in line

- Yes, Chef
- Thank you, Chef

Tonight was the second strong
Blue Team service in a row

So, you get a pass,

but we are not going backwards

Get out of here

Amen

The name of the game is just bounce back

That's what Chef Ramsay wants,
and that's what I'm gonna do

[Vlad] Day in, day out
We've gotta keep stepping up

We gotta keep rising to the occasion,

and I'm not dropping the ball
from this point forward

[Tara] Red Team not only
won the challenge today,

Red Team won dinner service

That's two for two

The boys are going down

These girls, we are picking it up
and we are starting to soar

This is the team that was meant to be

[Ramsay] Tonight,
each chef who stumbled bounced back

So, I'm giving them a second chance

Tomorrow, they might not be so lucky

- [narrator] Next time...
- A warm welcome to season winner,

Trenton and his wife to be, Macee

...Chef Ramsay opens the doors
for a winner's wedding...

You may kiss your wife

- Let's go
- ...but the celebration goes

- from "I thee wed"...
- Walking scallops

...to "I thee dread."

- Just touch in the middle. Raw!
- Sorry, Chef

In sickness and health
They won't even last a week married

[narrator]
Which relationships are on the rocks?

- I think you're your worst enemy
- [narrator] And who's headed for divorce?

I wanna break his bitch-ass down, man

[narrator]
Speak now or forever hold your peace

Y'all got your little alliance going on
to get us out. I don't give a f*ck

They're f*cking screaming

[narrator] On the next Hell's Kitchen...

You keep on coming at me
because you think you a bad mother...

- Move out the way
- Stop

- [Vlad] Abe
- [contestants shouting]

[loud clattering]
