Previously on Hell's Kitchen...
- Ooh. - Wow.
The chefs awoke to a decorated dining room,
which was for Chef Ramsay's right hand for years,
Chef Andi...
- Wow. - Gorgeous.
And her new husband.
Congratulations.
Yes, finally, we get to meet her.
Come up with six stunning dishes now.
The chefs were challenged to create dishes
for their wedding reception.
We're keeping the steak Diane,
and we'll keep that one right there, that's it.
Frank muscled his dish in
and Manda's dish out of the competition.
What am I, chopped liver right now?
But he didn't exactly deliver with his steak dish.
I think there's too much sauce going on.
Looks like a Marine boot has stepped all over it.
The couple did fall in love
with Chad's pappardelle shrimp...
Great dish.
And Joe's stuffed chicken...
We're gonna go with Joe's chicken dish.
Oh, yes!
Giving the Blue Team a challenge victory.
Blue Team, congratulations.
Thank you, Chef.
Yeah, let's go, Blue!
But it was far from happily ever after
for Frank and Manda.
I was kind of, like, pushed out.
You want to speak to me, you say, "Frank!"
- Frank... - Frank!
Frank!
I don't know if Frank has a problem with me
or females in general.
At the wedding reception...
Dear Lord, help me.
Jared's nerves got the best of him.
Pink chicken.
This is not happening.
They're going to remember
my raw chicken for the rest of their lives.
Hey, [bleep]-wit.
While Chad disappointed with...
Raw fish!
You [bleep] disgust me.
In the Red kitchen...
Two minutes on these scallops.
Dannie, for some unknown reason,
did not use a nonstick pan for the scallops.
They're stuck to the pan
like [bleep] to a blanket.
And Hassan's chicken disaster...
The chicken's raw.
I'm getting [bleep] on chicken right now.
Somebody [bleep] throw me a bone.
Kept the bridal party waiting.
Andi, where's our food?
But despite having broken her ankle the night before, Ariel...
Chicken is coming right now to the pass, Chef.
Helped her team limp across the finish line.
Both teams let Chef Ramsay down,
so the Blue Team nominated Jared and Chad,
and the Red Team nominated Dannie and Hassan.
Dannie was insistent that...
I'm better than anyone else on my team, Chef.
And Chef Ramsay decided to send home...
Hassan.
Who was forced to say good-bye
to his dream of becoming head chef
at BLT Steak at Bally's in Las Vegas.
And now, the continuation of Hell's Kitchen.
Now, get lost.
That was [bleep] intense.
I don't know how I feel about top ten.
I don't think the right person went home tonight.
Dannie's just kind of like,
"I'm the best chef ever."
It's frightening up there, eh?
It sucks, yeah, but...
The Red Team really needs a win.
And in order to work cohesively with the team,
Dannie, you need to have a little bit more humility
and stop trying to act
like you're better than everyone else.
I feel like our whole team just got alienated.
You guys did.
If you don't take it with humility,
it makes it so much harder
to have you come back to the [bleep] team.
When I was dancing,
I've never been in as good of shape in my life.
Being on a pole...
Think about it.
Like, pulling yourself up on a pole,
you're using all of your core.
How long did you do that for?
Almost two years.
Many Mandas ago, I used to be a dancer
at a go-go bar.
My signature trick was amazing.
I got paid so much money every single day
just for doing this one trick.
It's not something that I am necessarily proud of,
but it's not something I'm ashamed of either.
I would climb the pole.
I'd go up on the plexi and dance, or do whatever,
and money would just go like this.
I'm like, "Give to to me."
I wasn't privy to living with Mommy and Daddy.
I moved out of my house when I was 15 years old,
and was on my own.
So sometimes you just got to do what you got to do.
Manda, come here.
There's something on your butt.
That's hot.
Oh, my gosh, guys, stop.
Stop it.
Wax on, wax off.
Yeah, I mean, I don't know how much sleep I'm getting tonight.
You're gonna start making me blush.
I can't watch this.
No.
Aaron, I love you.
Manda is annoying.
She's looking for attention.
She's not gonna get it from me.
That's for [bleep] sure.
I'm retired.
I am retired.
Ha ha ha!
This way?
I can't see!
Marino!
Uhh!
Ugh!
Synced and corrected by VitoSilans - www.Addic7ed.com -
Come on, Blue.
Oh, I hear a live band.
Whoa, is there a band out there?
Oh, my God, it's Steve Vai.
This guy's a [bleep] legend.
I'm about to freak out.
I love rock music.
Wow, absolutely incredible.
I thought I'd treat you to your very own
little concert this morning to get you guys fired up.
Now, I'd like to introduce you
to a three-time Grammy winner,
one of the greatest rock guitarists in the world,
Steve Vai.
- Thank you. - Incredible.
I know Steve Vai.
Steve Vai has played with the best in the world:
Meat Loaf, Whitesnake, Diamond Dave.
Right on.
It's awesome to see him up close and personal.
[bleep] yeah.
Good morning.
Thank you so much for joining us, Steve.
Great to see you, as always.
Thank you, nice to be here.
Steve Vai is gorgeous.
Call me.
Now, it is always amazing
when you put a very talented big group of musicians together,
but sometimes a singular talented artist
can make magic with just one instrument.
Hit me, baby, hit me!
Simply brilliant, Steve.
Fantastic.
Guys, great job.
Thank you so much.
Thanks, guys.
- Thank you. - Hey-oh!
Now, listen carefully.
Music is just like cooking.
You saw how Steve was able
to have as much impact by himself
as when the band were playing together.
Yes, Chef.
The same could be said for a chef
who's able to make a great dish
whether he has a dozen ingredients
or just a couple.
Get where I'm going?
Yes, Chef.
Good, because that
is what you'll be tested on today.
Each team must produce
five stunning dishes:
one dish with seven ingredients,
one with six, one with five, one with four,
and one with three ingredients.
Are we ready?
Yes, Chef.
Your 40 minutes starts now.
In today's "getting the most
out of your ingredients" challenge,
the teams have been given the same five proteins.
Guys, what are we doing?
The chefs must choose who will use each protein...
I want the ahi.
I'll take pork chop.
And how many ingredients each chef will cook with.
Let's get those numbers down.
I'm going three.
You're gonna go three? All right.
I'll go four.
Five or seven, Frank?
I'll go five.
While the Blue Team quickly gets their choices on paper...
the Red Team...
Guys, I'm gonna do three ingredients.
You guys, I have three.
I have three.
Is not quite on the same page.
I'm comfortable with three.
I'm super comfortable with three.
I have the three over there.
I have three.
Kristin...
That's the first thing I said.
I want to cook with three ingredients.
Who has three?
I have three.
Wait, no.
Jackie has three now.
Who has four?
I have four, yeah.
Kristin, how many ingredients you got?
Five, Chef.
Ariel, how many ingredients?
I haven't worked it out yet, Chef.
You haven't worked it out yet. Oh, my God.
- Somebody needs to do seven. - [bleep] me.
I'll do seven ingredients.
I got hanger steak,
but seven ingredients is a lot for any dish.
So, what do you think I should do?
Jackie, I can't [bleep] help you now.
I have [bleep] seven ingredients, bro,
and a broken foot.
Blue Team, speed up, let's go.
Yes, Chef.
Any roadblocks, we catch them early on
so we can fix them, guys.
All right, Chad, that goes a long way.
Yeah, yeah, I'm just crusting it.
That's gonna be way too much.
You got to rinse that off.
No offense, Jared,
but I feel confident working with tuna.
I've worked with black garlic before.
It's kind of a no-brainer.
Chad, cut off the outsides
and sear it again and make it...
No, I'm not gonna do that.
Let's stay confident here.
While Chad ignores Jared's advice,
over in the Red kitchen...
Just over 15 minutes to go.
Yes, Chef.
Jackie...
What's your protein, Jackie?
Lobster, lobster.
Seems like she could use
all the help she can get.
I'm not gonna have time to do the corn sauce,
'cause I don't have time,
so I'm just gonna do, like, a corn salad.
Jackie, you've got to get out of that.
I can't, I can't, I can't.
Jackie, stop panicking.
I'm not panicking, Chef.
Pull it together.
Oh, my God.
- Do you want my help? - I need help plating.
I kind of want it to show everything.
I mean, I plate horrible,
so don't go by what I want.
My plating sucks.
I'm the worst plater ever.
All right, this is what we're gonna do.
Yeah... sorry.
Whatever it looks like in my head,
I want to do opposite.
So [bleep] what's in my head.
What's in your head?
Do your cauliflower in, like, something like that.
Do sauce.
Five minutes to go.
- Heard. - Five minutes to go, heard.
Make it count, guys.
Joe, don't break that up too much.
Keep those pieces big.
I know. I just want to make sure
that they're not over-or undercooked.
I'm behind you, Chad, hot.
I'm a little nervous,
because I haven't done a whole lot
of fancy things with lobster,
and I really want the lobster to shine.
Touch of saffron on here, yeah.
So I got to jazz it up a little bit,
and taste it along the way
just to make sure it's cooked properly.
You all right, Joe?
Yeah, I got a piece of a lobster
just went down the wrong pipe.
60 seconds to go, come on.
Let's start plating, guys.
Let's go.
Manda, you gonna make it?
Barely.
Ugh, [bleep].
Frank, you should be plating.
Plating up right now.
Last ten.
Need to get this on the plate.
Fingerlings, sweet potatoes, eggplant, farro.
- Five, four... - Walking.
- Three, two... - It's good, it's good.
One, and serve.
Let's go.
Let's start off with the battle of the sea bass.
Come on, Manda.
You got it.
Manda, describe the dish and how many ingredients.
I had five ingredients.
It's a pan-seared sea bass
with a sweet potato puree,
some crispy leeks, some sautéed mushrooms,
and I used white wine to deglaze the sea bass.
The bass is beautifully cooked.
- Thank you, Chef. - It's glistening.
- Absolutely delicious. - Thank you very much, Chef.
Kristin, how many ingredients, please?
Five ingredients, Chef.
I have a pan-seared sea bass
with braised kale, creamy Israeli couscous,
roasted carrots on top.
I mean, look at that.
I've begged for bass like that to be cooked on service.
Beautiful.
This is really hard.
There's one dish that has the edge.
Congratulations, Manda, great job.
- Thank you, Chef. - Really good.
Wow, Amanda's doing great in challenges.
Ah, home run.
Like, she killed it.
Next up, my favorite cut, the hanger steak, let's go.
- All right, Frank. - Come on, Frank.
You got it, Ariel.
Ariel probably thinks she has nothing to worry about, but...
Let's go.
This dish is about to blow you out of the water.
I have six ingredients, Chef.
I did a hanger steak with a Romanesco puree,
roasted potatoes, grilled eggplant chip,
with sautéed chard.
It's not cooked properly.
And when you say potatoes, where are the potatoes?
They're scattered around the plate, Chef.
They're scattered around the plate.
I just didn't want to put too much on the plate.
Seriously?
You are kidding me.
No, I'm not.
Come on.
Frank, I expect more.
Pathetic.
Ariel, describe the dish
and how many ingredients, please.
I have seven ingredients, Chef.
So I did a sweet potato and baby eggplant hash,
cooked some farro, and then mixed it
with Brussels sprouts with a little bit of lemon peel.
Ariel...
Great job, point to the Red Team.
Thank you, Chef.
Good job, Ariel.
Ariel will always pull it out.
That bitch could have no leg, and she'll pull it out.
That's my girl.
Next up, the battle of the lobster, let's go.
Come on, Jackie.
Come on, Joe.
Let's go.
Joe, how many ingredients?
Three, Chef.
Describe the dish, Joe.
It's a warm lobster salad
with corn and couscous.
It looks like the size of a prawn.
Where's the [bleep] lobster?
I can't see the tail.
I can't see the claw.
I can't see the knuckles.
Young man, look at me.
Where is it?
Uh...
In today's challenge, the teams are tied,
and Joe's lobster dish...
- Where's the [bleep] lobster? - Um...
Appears to be missing a rather important element.
Young man, look at me.
Where is it?
Uh...
I tasted a piece.
No.
Unbelievable.
So you tasted a piece... the claw, the knuckle?
I did, Chef.
Did you taste the tail?
I believe so, Chef.
Joe, it's a cooking challenge,
not a [bleep] eating challenge.
Oh, man, he ate it.
That was pretty bad.
I feel sort of ripped off.
However, the lobster's cooked beautifully.
Nice flavor.
Jackie, how many ingredients?
Three.
Describe the dish.
Today I have for you
a butter-poached lobster tail
with a roasted Romesco and a roasted corn sauce.
Mm.
Wow, lobster's cooked beautifully, Jackie.
Great job, point to the Red Team.
Thank you, Chef.
Yes, Jackie.
Redemption, baby.
Yes, yes!
Nailed it!
- Awesome job. - Thank you.
Young man, next time,
have a bigger breakfast, will you, first?
- Yes, Chef. - Okay.
With the Red Team now leading by one...
The battle of the tuna, let's go.
Chad must score a point over Ashley
to keep the Blue Team in the game.
We're gonna live or die by this dish.
Oh, well, well, well.
I feel confident with this black garlic and tuna.
It's being a little bit ambitious,
but I nailed it.
Right, Ashley, how many ingredients did you use?
- Four, Chef. - Describe the dish, please.
What I have for you
is a sesame seed crusted ahi tuna.
It has broccoli, leeks, and mushrooms.
Tuna's cooked beautifully.
Love the sesame seed crust on the outside,
because it's not overpowering.
Thank you, Chef.
Chad, how many ingredients did you use?
Four.
Chad, what the [bleep] is that?
I'm pretty sure
somebody took a [bleep] on his plate.
Describe your dish, please.
Black garlic tuna tataki,
quick sautéed with olive oil,
and a black garlic sauce with lemon.
The big question for me is,
why so heavily doused in black garlic?
I think I did a light crust.
It's doused in it.
It's swimming in it.
I told you, way too much black garlic.
Ashley, you've just won it for the Red Team.
Well done.
- Thank you, Chef. - Really well done.
- Good job, Ashley. - Good job, Ash.
Whoo!
I kicked ass and took names today.
Shake it off, Chad.
Red Team, congratulations.
Thank you, Chef.
The more luxurious the ingredient,
the little it needs doing to it.
Tuna doesn't need seven ingredients.
Hanger steak needs it.
And you've all done that very well.
Red Team, you're in for an amazing treat.
It is gonna be action-packed.
- Aw. - Oh.
And it's gonna be a surprise.
Get changed.
Cars are leaving soon.
Hurry up.
Good job.
Kristin, thank you so much for plating.
Oh, my God.
We won.
Finally, we won.
Yeah!
Blue Team, you guys are in
for a difficult, back-breaking day,
let me tell you,
because today here in Hell's Kitchen
is delivery day.
Shipments will be coming throughout the day.
Good thing is, Joe, you've had a big lunch,
and you're ready to burn that off now.
Yes, Chef.
- Let's go. - Yes, Chef.
I'm so aggravated that I'm even here.
Like, my dish was one of the best dishes of the day.
- Got a delivery of ice. - Yes, Chef.
Everything goes to the bar.
Hustle, let's go.
Oh, just murder me now.
That's a lot of ice.
Do you guys want me to start handing it down to you guys?
- Yeah, that's fine. - Yeah, that's a good idea.
Yeah, start laying them down.
With the Blue Team buried under an avalanche of ice,
the Red Team is greeted by a familiar face
at their surprise reward.
Hi, ladies.
- Marino! - How are you?
Hi, gimpy.
We're gonna play paintball.
Let's go, follow me.
Holy [bleep].
This is, like, the coolest thing ever.
Here you are.
This is awesome.
This is gonna be sweet.
Kristin, Ashley, and Dannie,
I'm shooting all you bitches in the [bleep] face.
On my team, we got Ariel as the sniper.
Got it!
We got Marino covering me.
Come out and play.
And I'm just pounding them in their face.
Ah, [bleep]! Okay!
Jackie is definitely out for blood,
and Jackie's crazy.
Oh, [bleep], you shot me in the head.
No one should ever give Jackie a gun.
Sorry, guys.
Oh, it was so cute.
So cute with the mask and the gloves
and little soft paintballs.
Come to Jersey.
I'll show you a real [bleep] paintball gun.
While the Red Team enjoys a field day,
Go, go, go, go, let's move.
We got another delivery, let's go.
The dog days are far from over for the Blue Team.
I'm sick of unloading trucks.
I'm over it.
God.
- Yeah, it's endless. - Yep.
This is just ridiculous.
I'm 4'11" and 100 pounds soaking wet.
How am I gonna do this?
This day sucks.
Why don't we start piling them up that way?
All day long, Manda's up there in the truck, organizing,
while, you know, the men
are carrying the ice and the wine to the kitchen.
Well, she's, like, a perfect example
why I [bleep] can't stand working with women.
She's pathetic.
Ow.
Oh, that [bleep] hurts.
I know I just did something really, really bad.
My back is in so much pain,
that I can't even see straight.
[bleep].
Where's Manda?
Where the [bleep] did she go?
[bleep].
Where the [bleep] is Amanda?
Come on now, darling.
I'm [bleep] fuming right now.
Amanda is nowhere to be found.
There was supposed to be two people
prepping this station over here.
I'm afraid that I may have done something to myself
to permanently take me out of this competition,
and I don't know what to do right now.
As dinner service approaches...
Ow.
Oh, that [bleep] hurts.
A back-breaking day of punishment
has taken a toll on Manda...
[bleep].
Leaving the Blue Team
to prep the kitchen without her.
Where the [bleep] is Amanda?
Come on now, darling.
I'm [bleep] fuming right now.
Amanda is nowhere to be found.
There was supposed to be two people
prepping this station over here.
Sitting this out is not an option.
If I sit out, I'm going home.
And I cannot let an injury take me out of this thing.
[bleep] me.
I'm a mom, you know?
There's no such thing as a sick day.
I carried three children.
I'm fine.
After a heart-pounding afternoon...
How fun was that paintballing?
The Red Team returns to Hell's Kitchen,
and both teams have dinner service
in their line of sight.
Everybody ready?
Can we do a chest bump before service?
I will knock everyone out.
Okay, could everyone but Dannie do a chest bump?
No way, you'll pop my fake boobs.
Line up, please.
Quickly, quickly, quickly.
I actually smell positivity.
I'm hoping tonight
confirms our comeback service.
Right, right hand in the air.
Time for an oath.
Repeat after me.
I will not suck.
Turn around and tell each other.
I will not suck.
Louder.
I will not suck!
Got it?
Yes, Chef.
You guys can do it.
Get on our stations, let's go.
Word, word, word.
Marino.
Si, Chef.
Open Hell's Kitchen, please, let's go.
Subito.
In its 15th year,
Hell's Kitchen remains the place to be seen.
And excited guests...
Wow, it's gorgeous, though.
Are always eager to sample
the famous Hell's Kitchen menu.
I'll start with the capellini.
Risotto, please.
Chef.
Hey, Manda.
Get motivated right now, Amanda.
- Listen up. - Let's go, Blue Team.
Two kale salad, two scallops.
- Two minutes out. - Two minutes out, let's go.
I'm excited to be on fish.
If there's one thing
that I classify myself as,
is a chef that cooks seafood.
45 seconds out on scallops.
You've got scallops, and you're off the heat.
Guys, I need a re-fired scallops, re-fired scallops.
[bleep].
I can't cook anymore with you.
I may as well do it myself.
You may as well put your feet up and have a little cigarette.
Come here.
I am too scared to even [bleep] a brick.
This is not good.
- What are you doing? - I tore a scallop.
- They're stuck. - Yeah.
You took the pan off the [bleep] stove.
Yes, Chef.
The pan gets cold,
and you put it back on there,
they stick like [bleep] to a blanket.
Get outside, get some fresh air,
and get your [bleep] head out your [bleep].
Yes, Chef.
Scallops in the window, Chef, right here.
With Chad taking over the fish station for Jared,
the Blue Team delivers their first appetizers.
That's really delicious.
Meanwhile, in the Red kitchen...
I'm not comfortable with the pizza.
Okay.
So if I can just kind of stay away from that tonight.
Dannie is leaning on Kristin
to take the lead on their appetizers.
Dannie, I want you to try a pizza.
I don't want you to be afraid of it.
No, I don't want to be afraid of it.
I'm just saying I'm not comfortable with it right now.
Don't be scared of it.
It's not as hard as it looks.
Dannie, if you're not comfortable with all stations
at this point in the competition,
you don't have what it takes to be the head chef at BLT.
Four covers, table 32, two risotto, two pizza.
- Yes, Chef. - Two risotto, two pizza.
How long on risotto?
I need a solid six minutes on that risotto.
Heard.
Let's make that a solid seven minutes
on that risotto.
Dannie has built herself up.
She has this arrogance and this confidence level
that just is not matched by her production level.
Table 30, two kale salad, two risotto,
two carbonara, two pizza.
Yes, Chef.
I'm down to four minutes on that first risotto.
Jackie, finish my pizza.
Put the first pizza in
so I can load the second pizza, please.
Putting the first one in?
- Yes. - Thank you.
Yeah, you're welcome.
I'm gonna drop this carbonara.
Dannie basically left me to do almost everything.
It got a little hairy.
Give me three more
minutes on that carbonara, heard?
That risotto, maybe it was
getting a little too much love tonight.
Let's push these apps out, guys,
and get right into entrees.
I still need a solid four minutes out on this risotto.
Four minutes, risotto.
While Kristin is more vocal and determined than ever,
over in the Blue kitchen...
Time, done.
Jared is also determined
to make a comeback on the fish station.
Hey, young man, you with me?
- You're with me, yeah? - Absolutely, Chef.
On order, four covers, table 12.
Two New York strip and two Wellington.
- Yes, Chef. - Heard, Chef.
Jared, start around there now,
cause the first all eight entrees are Manda, let's go.
Jared, I can't move fast.
What do you mean you can't move fast?
I'm saying just let me take my time, and don't rush me,
and I'll get it right, okay?
Here, you're gonna time that, correct?
- Sure. - Okay.
Oh, baby, what do you need?
Can I get you anything?
Let me rub your back.
No, shut the [bleep] up, and let's go.
I understand you're in a lot of pain.
Just keep it to your [bleep] self.
Manda, what's your time now on two strips?
I need six minutes.
I haven't been able to do it.
That's fine, just...
keep us updated.
Ugh, [bleep].
Hey, guys, stay focused, all right?
Let's stay in the game.
Look, Amanda, I wouldn't even waste my time destroying you
if you were my Marine.
I'd just [bleep] send you home.
- Amanda. - What, what, what?
Are you still good to go in one minute?
Can I walk?
You're driving, you' driving.
You're driving it.
Yeah, walk it.
I've got garnish ready to go. Walk it.
Chef, sauce for tuna, sauce for strips.
Where are they?
Thank you, Chef.
Behind.
Manda, after that, you've got two chicken and...
No, we haven't.
Young lady.
Oh, no.
I'm going down.
Come here, you.
Come here, all of you, yeah.
I said [bleep] all of you, and I mean quick!
40 minutes into dinner service...
Oh, [bleep] hell, man.
And Manda is clearly overwhelmed
by the orders on the meat station,
and Chef Ramsay...
Come here, you.
Has some words of advice for the Blue Team.
Come here, all of you, yeah.
I said [bleep] all of you, and I mean quick!
Too [bleep] slow for me.
90% of your entrees are all meat.
She's swamped.
Raw, white congealed fat, that's a disgrace.
Do me a favor.
Get a big pair of lungs,
because you're refusing, point blank, to delegate.
Yes, Chef.
Now, one of you, find your [bleep]
and go stand next to her.
Let's go, you're with her.
Frank.
Heard, heard.
You already showed that you are weak, Amanda.
You really don't deserve my help.
You need to fail.
I'm sorry, honey.
While the men reluctantly support Manda,
the Red Team has delivered on appetizers
under Kristin's leadership...
Following with risotto, yeah?
Walking with two scallops.
Go, please.
And are now moving on to entrees.
On order, table 34,
two chicken, two Wellington, two New York strip.
- Yes, Chef. - Let's go.
Dannie, can you run to the oven with a paring knife
and cut open those chicken breasts,
make sure they're cooked?
Yes.
There's a... here, just cut the breast.
Flip it over and cut the breast.
- Huh, I'm sorry? - Flip it over.
Okay.
Don't poke the chicken.
It might feel tight. You don't know.
We need to cut the chicken breast open
where it's thick, Dannie, and see if it's cooked.
Ashley, I'm three minutes out on these two chickens.
All right.
When you go to someone's station,
you're there to help them.
You need to do exactly what they ask you to do.
That's it.
Can you just watch these two sauces?
One is a Wellington sauce,
and this is four strip sauces in here.
Four strips, got it.
I need a tong.
Where's my [bleep] tong?
What do you need?
I got it.
Just focus on those sauces, please.
This one is getting too hot.
Me and Ariel have a mutual respect
between each other.
We're very, very strong chefs,
so we work very well together.
This is all the jus I have.
You can't do that.
Yeah, I know, I just... no problem.
I'll take it off.
We can't reduce it like that,
'cause that's it for the night.
Got it.
Dannie was really annoying me.
I don't know where her head was,
but, like, this is elementary cooking.
My 13-year-old sister knows how to do this.
So... yeah.
Can I get something out of the oven,
move anything for you?
Okay, just use me.
I'm free, use me.
Dannie, I'm not afraid to use you, babe, trust me.
Heard.
While Ariel keeps Dannie on standby in the Red kitchen,
over in the Blue kitchen...
Walking meat.
I've got the two New York strip.
Manda has finally delivered on her re-fired strips...
How long for the Arctic char?
But Chef Ramsay's call to the fish station
has fallen on deaf ears.
Two Arctic char.
No answer.
Jared, we're going on yours, right?
- Jared? - What? No.
Chad, Jared, get your ass over here.
Sit down.
Standing next to each other,
and we refuse to talk.
Do me a favor.
Both of you, talk now.
I don't give a [bleep] what it's about,
but just have a talk.
You know, we're just not being vocal enough.
It's my fault. I wasn't communicating with you.
I thought you knew because
you were calling out what I needed.
Yeah, and then I needed a reminder myself,
and we got lost, and that was the breakdown.
You were just calling and not listening.
Yeah.
Jared and Chad are sitting at the chef's table just [bleep].
That's cute. What the [bleep] is going on?
All right, so, are we good?
Yeah, we're good.
We're better than this.
We work well together.
Let's go.
Communicate.
I have two char.
While Chad and Jared
work on their communication skills...
Chad, what do you need? Just talk to me.
Back in the Red kitchen...
Jackie, babe, how long to the window
for the Wellington garnish?
About four minutes.
Ariel looks to Jackie
to stay vocal about her ticket times.
You with me, Jackie?
Get your pans on, two Wellington, two tuna,
two New York strip.
- Let's go. - Yes, Chef.
All right, Jackie, talk to me.
How long to the window with the Wellington garnish?
Three minutes, three minutes.
You got to understand, in Hell's Kitchen,
you have to yell out your times every 30 seconds.
Jackie, I'm 2 1/2 on those tuna.
You got to give me, like, five.
I didn't even start it.
Come on, start, start, start.
You know, if I'm farting,
I'm telling them I'm farting, okay?
How long for the strip garnish, Jackie?
I'm ready to go, babe.
I still need, like, four minutes for that.
All right, so we got to communicate better, babe,
'cause my strips are gonna go over.
I'm rushing.
Two tuna, two strip, how long?
How long for the garnish?
Four minutes, Chef.
No, stop.
- Is the steak ready? - Yes, Chef.
- Is the tuna cooked? - Yes, Chef.
So what the [bleep] is going on with the garnish?
Look at me, hey.
- So you're not ready. - No, Chef.
We should never be waiting for garnish.
Yes, Chef.
Ever!
- Yes, Chef. - Yes, Chef.
- Bounce back. - Bounce back, Jackie.
Got it, I got it, I got it.
While everyone waits on Jackie's garnish,
in the Blue kitchen...
Char on your left.
Garnish here, hot pan.
Chad and Jared are not only communicating,
but delivering entrees.
Go, John, please.
Finally, we're talking.
Finally.
And the focus now moves back to Manda on meat.
You have your two Wellington,
and you have your two VIP chicken.
Same table.
No, they're separate tickets, Manda.
Oh, different tickets?
Let me know what else you need.
Let me know where else you at.
I don't know what else I need.
[bleep].
It's not even cooked in there yet, Amanda.
They are VIP chickens, Manda.
Okay, well, I'm not sending out raw chicken.
Two chicken, VIP, how long?
Give me time.
Chef, I'm dragging chicken.
It's raw. I can't send it out yet.
I still need five or six minutes.
Five or six minutes.
Hey, come here, you.
Oh, man, man, man, man, man, man, man.
You're not communicating.
You're swamped.
You're in way over your head.
I think you should take your apron off and go home.
It's an hour and 20 minutes into dinner service...
Two chicken, VIP, how long? Give me time.
It's raw. I can't send it out yet.
And Manda's constant issues on the meat station...
Hey, come here, you.
Have resulted in private time with Chef Ramsay.
I think you should take your apron off and go home.
But I don't want to go home.
I want to get through this, and I want to do this.
I know I can.
You're not communicating.
You're not using the team.
You're swamped.
You're in way over your head.
And you just lost any form of organization.
Apart from Chad,
you've got Frank and Joe standing next to you.
Yes, Chef.
You've got ten minutes, in my mind,
to use them to the best of your capability.
Otherwise, I'm personally gonna ask you to leave.
Look at me.
You've got ten minutes to pull it back.
Yes, Chef.
Where is that chicken?
I'm on it. I'm on it right now.
I got the chicken on the fire.
[bleep].
I have to fix this.
I'm on my own.
It's all me, all me and nobody else.
[bleep] me.
I'm not gonna crack under this pressure.
Okay, as soon as you're ready, and go.
Chicken walking, chicken walking.
Chicken over here.
Regardless of how long it [bleep] takes me,
I'm going to figure this out.
Next pickup, two Wellington,
two char, two rigatoni, three minutes.
Manda, are you with that?
- Yes. - Okay, good.
When you walk with garnish, I'll slice.
I'm not going home.
Two Wellington, two Arctic char.
Okay, I'm slicing.
Yeah, Wellington garnish is walking right now, yeah?
Okay, I'm gonna walk right behind you.
While Manda fights back...
Coming hot.
Behind.
And tries to prove
that she has what it takes to stay in Hell's Kitchen,
the Red Team is focused on finishing strong.
Six covers, table 30.
Entree, two tuna, two chicken, two New York strip.
Yes, Chef, heard.
We need to win this [bleep] service.
We're not losing anymore.
It's not happening.
All that matters is getting to the finish line.
There's a strip right here ready to go.
Bring it up, yeah. These two are ready.
Two strips to the window.
- Ariel. - Yes, Chef.
Beautifully cooked New York strip.
Thank you, Chef.
The kitchen's the first place
where I've felt like I really fit in.
I was always an outsider.
Never black enough for the black kids,
never Jewish enough for the Jewish kids,
never white enough for the white kids.
Ash, can you carry two sizzles?
Yeah, is that bottom one clean?
Give me the bottom one.
Bitch, you been holding out on me?
I could be myself in the kitchen.
I love the energy of being in the kitchen.
Like, I [bleep] live to cook food and to learn.
Come on, guys, stay focused.
Whoo! Focus, heard.
Service, please.
Although both teams had their bumps...
Walking with Welly garnish.
They have both pulled
together for a respectable service...
Go, please.
Walking with sauce to the window, Chef.
And are sending their final orders out to the dining room.
Oh, yeah.
You should have ordered this.
It's perfect.
We're good.
- That's it. - That's it?
- Yeah. - Clean up?
- Yeah, yeah. - All right, heard.
Tonight, one team communicated so well,
and one team refused to talk.
The winning team tonight is the Red Team.
Great job.
Thank you, Chef.
Blue Team, you made the service harder, much harder.
You all have the difficult task
of deciding the two individuals that you could do without
to make your team stronger.
All of you, [bleep] off.
Yes, Chef.
I hate losing,
but we just say, "Hey, look,
you're going up, and you're going up."
There's no grudges or no bickering, no fighting.
It's nothing personal. This is business.
All right, who wants to start?
So the biggest issue tonight was communication,
and he had me and Jared sit down.
But I'm not gonna think that for one second
that Jared and I are the only ones
that were not communicating.
I'm gonna agree with that.
Nominations first, explanations after?
- Yeah. - Sure.
Amanda, your two?
Come on.
- Frank? - Amanda, Jared.
[bleep].
I didn't have one fish come back, not one.
Frank, you in particular close your ears.
You put your head down,
and that pisses me the [bleep] off.
Yeah, and one thing like that just sinks the whole ship.
Jared, he's a sorry human being.
For him to [bleep] up and then blame it on somebody else,
it's very sad.
And then this one isn't shouting loud enough.
I understand she's in pain today,
but at some point you either need to tap out
or [bleep] speak up.
I can't [bleep] move.
Here's my problem.
If something's [bleep] wrong, tell somebody.
Why are you slamming [bleep]?
Because I've been quiet for a long time,
but I'm [bleep] pissed.
My [bleep] back hurts so bad, I'm ready to [bleep] cry.
It's tough, I mean, I don't want to be a jerk,
because I know that she's not feeling well,
but during dinner service,
Manda is just a deer in headlights.
We know your back hurts, but suck it up.
I'd like to lay down too.
I'd like to [bleep] whine and complain.
But there's no room for weakness on the boys' team.
Manda, you know what,
I'm not gonna play the pity game.
No, [bleep] that.
You know...
That's the first time I've worked meat station at all.
Like, I have not worked meat station once yet.
Like... oh.
I can't [bleep] win right now.
I didn't give up.
I hurt my back doing bitch work
because my team didn't come through
during the [bleep] challenge.
Trying really hard to be [bleep] strong right now.
We know what the issue is,
so what are we're gonna do?
- Joe? - I don't really know.
I have no idea who's going up.
It doesn't matter, as long as it's not me.
Jared, I'm not the weakest person
on this [bleep] team, at all.
Ow.
Our team is not gonna be [bleep] stronger without me.
They're gonna be sorry if they send me home.
I don't know.
Who would we be stronger without?
- Manda. - But who else?
That's what I'm struggling with.
Red Team, well done, finally.
If the Blue Team just talked and helped each other,
you would have had as good a service
as the Red Team.
Frank, Blue Team's first nominee, and why.
Chef, our first nominee is Manda.
We picked her today because of folding under pressure.
The meat station was a complete disaster tonight, Chef.
Second nominee, and why.
Chef, our second nominee is Jared.
Picked Jared today because of the ongoing miscommunication,
and it was brought to his attention more than once,
and it did not improve.
- Manda. - Yes, Chef.
Rough night for you tonight.
Yes, Chef.
Tonight was not my best night.
But I cook my ass off,
and I cook with my heart, my soul.
This is everything to me.
I came into this competition to give myself a better life,
as well as my kids.
And all I think about every single day
is giving my kids the life that they deserve.
Jared...
why do you think you should stay in Hell's Kitchen?
Chef, I deserve to be here because I'm a strong leader.
I'm one of the only people on the team
during challenges, during service.
I'm here to just be the best chef I can.
This is tough.
My decision is...
Step forward.
Give me your jacket, Chad.
Yes, Chef.
Young man, you have lost your confidence.
And Chad...
I'm hoping that you can find it...
in the Red Team.
Get over there.
Yes, Chef.
Dannie...
Give Chad your seat...
because you are going to the Blue Team.
Yes, Chef.
Chad, I'm giving you your very last chance
in a new environment,
because you did start this competition strong,
but your time, young man, is running out quickly.
Get it together.
Jared, Manda,
back in line.
Now get out of here.
I know this is my last chance here,
and being that the whole Red Team
is on the up-and-up, I can't wait
to get in there and be part of that.
I know I can be a strong leader and a good cook.
My back might slow me down, but it's not gonna stop me.
Wow, I'm in shock.
It's a new start, and I don't know,
I think I look pretty good in blue.
Chad desperately needs to regain his confidence,
and Dannie is desperate to be a leader.
Hopefully, their new teams
will bring out the best of both of them.
Next time, Hell's Kitchen's gone country.
Howdy, Chef.
Oh, you are kidding me.
And when one chef admits to being a greenhorn...
I only been cooking for three months!
Wait a minute, what?
You're kidding me bro.
Jackie, watch your meatballs.
Jackie, what are you doing?
Jackie, you have a second,
can you come watch this tuna for me?
And put her out to pasture?
Jackie...
I'm done! Get out!
Get ready for a showdown.
I'm so pissed, I can't even tell you what I want to do.
I'll get arrested for even saying it.
Because it's gonna be a rootin'...
On Hells Kitchen.
