[music playing]

NARRATOR: Previously

on "Hell's Kitchen--"

That's it, baby.

Come on.

[applause]

NARRATOR: After the

biggest turnout ever,

conference chefs

were selected.

Yes, sir!

I will dwarf everyone--

me, this god of cooking.

NARRATOR: And in what

was clearly the best

signature dish tasting ever--

GORDON RAMSAY: Whose is this?

- That's mine.

NARRATOR: --Chef Ramsay

was optimistic going

into dinner service.

In terms of flavor, spot on.

That was delicious.

- Thank you, chef.

- Cooked perfectly.

Thank you, chef.

NARRATOR: But even

before the doors opened--

I don't see a

strainer anywhere.

NARRATOR: --the chefs

turned on each other

when Giovanni att*cked Seth.

Seth, man, you got to

listen a little better.

Seth's useless.

NARRATOR: And Coi bottled Lacey.

Don't say a f*ckin' thing.

This station is f*cked up.

Now why don't you tell

him how you threatened me?

NARRATOR: At dinner service,

Chef Ramsay's optimism

quickly faded.

Oh my god.

NARRATOR: In the red kitchen--

What's that in there?

COLLEEN: Mascarpone.

NARRATOR: --Colleen was

confused on appetizers.

We don't put mascarpone

in the spaghetti of lobster!

NARRATOR: And in

the blue kitchen--

- What are you doing, Will?

- I don't know.

GORDON RAMSAY: --Will was

lost on the garnish station.

Will's on f*cking

Planet Coo-coo.

NARRATOR: With both

kitchens sinking,

the pressure shifted

to each team's waiters.

- Giovanni, do you remember?

- No.

NARRATOR: Carol made

her customers happy.

- I'm going to leave the bottle.

- OK,

Thank you.

[laughter]

NARRATOR: Giovanni

failed miserably.

% of your customers thought

your performance was crap.

The losing team are the men.

NARRATOR: And Seth

blamed Giovanni.

What happened?

Shut the f*ck up, man.

I'm no waiter.

NARRATOR: But it

was Seth and Will

who ended up getting nominated.

Will, give me your jacket,

and leave Hell's Kitchen.

NARRATOR: And in

the end, it was Will

whose dream of

becoming head chef

at Borgata Hotel in Atlantic

City went up in flames.

[music playing]

[theme music]

Ba ba-da ba.

Ba ba-da ba.

NARRATOR: And now

the continuation

of "Hell's Kitchen."

Sorry, boys.

You stuck with me.

J's upset that he has to

spend another day with Seth.

Good luck, Seth.

Good luck.

Thank you, thank you.

Seth's just a waste of time--

waste of life.

He doesn't have the skill.

He doesn't have the heart.

Doesn't have the desire.

[music playing]

If I get kicked

off because of you,

I swear to God I'm

coming after you, Lacey.

I don't have the

experience you guys have.

And I just feel like--

You gave up on us, man.

I told Lacey that she

needs to f*cking help me.

And she's like, I'm not

gonna let you bully me.

And I'm like, well,

f*ck you, then.

Get the f*ck on.

I can do this by myself.

And not only that, if you don't

have confidence in yourself,

how the f*ck are we gonna

have confidence in you?

Lacey is lazy.

We all want her gone.

She should not be here.

You have to realize,

you can't give up on us.

If so, you need to go upstairs,

and pack now, and leave.

I don't know if I'm the

weakest link at this point.

But I do want to be here.

It's definitely a lot harder

than I thought I would be.

Good night.

Good night, boys.

I'll see you guys

in the morning.

[laughter]

Good night, guys.

NARRATOR: After an exhausting

first dinner service,

everyone is looking forward

to a good night's sleep.

But Hell's Kitchen

marches to the b*at

of a different drummer.

[drumming]

Let's go.

Everybody up!

Downstairs now.

Move!

I actually didn't

even see a band.

I heard ting-ting,

but I didn't--

how many f*cking

people were there?

[music playing]

Can you run?

No way.

If you don't want me to trip

and fall on you and squish you.

[drumming]

GORDON RAMSAY: OK, good morning.

Good morning, chef.

I was expecting so much

more from last night's dinner

service.

That was way beyond

disappointment.

Inside those bags is everything

you wasted last night.

Oh lord, the

dreaded garbage bags.

GORDON RAMSAY: Normally, you'd

be sorting through the trash.

But quite frankly, this morning,

we haven't got time for that.

Because we've just received

two crates of fresh scallops.

The purpose of this this morning

is to respect to your product.

Because everything we

get inside Hell's Kitchen

is the best of the best.

Each team, get

inside those crates.

Find your scallops.

And put them in the buckets.

I do not want one

ounce of waste.

Move your ass.

Let's go.

Hurry up!

MAN: Come on, come on.

Come on.

- [scream]

- Oh, sorry.

BEN: Honestly, I would have

rather picked through garbage.

Let's pull them out

and put them back in.

It's the most putrid smell.

GORDON RAMSAY: Woo, f*ck.

Don't fall in there.

We're not bobbing

for apples, Robert.

COLLEEN: [scream]

WOMAN: Oh!

COLLEEN: [screaming]

Holy mackerel.

Get up, get up, get up.

I fell.

I still have sand in my teeth.

[laughter]

Yuck.

OK, let's go back to the

kitchen-- back in there.

[music playing]

OK, this challenge--

all about scallops.

I have no experience

with scallops.

I didn't know they

came in shells.

Watch carefully.

In-- release the muscle.

When we put the Kn*fe in, I

don't want the scallop stabbed.

Off with the lid.

NARRATOR: This

challenge will not

only help the chefs

appreciate where

fresh shellfish comes from.

GORDON RAMSAY: And let

it fall out naturally.

NARRATOR: It will also test

their attention to detail.

Slide your thumb

alongside the muscle.

Carefully pop it

out of the skirt.

Clean it nicely.

Done-- immaculately and clean.

That's the challenge

this morning.

Your shucking, my standards.

Is that clear?

Yes, chef.

Ladies, it's

eight against seven.

Andrea, I want you

to sit this one out.

Yes, chef.

Seven again seven.

Are we ready?

Yes, chef.

Off you go.

- Grab a couple.

- Pass them down.

Pass them down.

WOMAN: Start off with one.

I'll hand them out, ladies.

NARRATOR: The scallop must

be removed from the shell

without any gashes.

I can't f*cking open it.

NARRATOR: Next, to

the surrounding muscle

must be removed.

The team with the

most scallops shucked

to Chef Ramsay's standards

will win the challenge.

WOMAN: Come on, ladies.

Let's kick their ass.

OK, this is gross.

If the people on earth

that ate scallops

saw the scallop like that,

they wouldn't eat them.

Seth, what are you doing?

I've never shucked

a scallop before.

Thought it was gonna be a

little bit easier than it was.

GORDON RAMSAY: Has anybody

open these scallops before?

[interposing voices]

- No, chef.

Never, chef.

Un-- shucking-- believable.

Come on, let's go.

I mean, you've got

to be careful, man.

Because one slip of

that blade, and--

[whistling]

--done, man.

[interposing voices]

GORDON RAMSAY: Last two minutes.

Come on, ladies.

This is big-time.

This is big-time.

This is where it counts.

[clapping]

GORDON RAMSAY: Speed up.

Come on, come on, come on.

MAN: Come on.

Come on!

Yeah.

GORDON RAMSAY: Five,

four, three, two--

MAN: Come on, come on.

GORDON RAMSAY: --one, stop.

Here we go.

Carol, show me what you got.

First one-- beautiful.

In.

Two-- in.

[clapping]

These are immaculate.

Three, four, five, six, seven.

Very good-- eight out of eight.

[cheering]

Immaculate.

[applause]

I was real nervous.

Caron just bangs out

eight of eight perfectly.

[sigh]

It sucks.

Paula-- holy sh*t,

what happened there?

Really bad.

NARRATOR: With only one out

of of Paula's scallops

being accepted,

it's up to cafe cook

Coi to get the

women back on track.

Perfect.

She succeeds with six

acceptable scallops.

Good.

Not bad.

Colleen.

A team is only as strong

as its weakest link.

I didn't want to be

that weak link today.

That's immaculate.

MAN: Go girl.

WOMAN: Good job, girl.

Perfect, perfect, perfect.

Well done.

COLLEEN: Thank you.

[cheering]

GORDON RAMSAY: Five out of six.

LA-- beautiful, in.

in the bag.

-- in.

Absolutely perfect-- .

[cheering]

LA, you've just become a star.

Eight out of eight-- well done.

Eight In minutes,

that's f*cking sorry.

I like to think that I

could have done more.

[cheering]

GORDON RAMSAY: Really well done.

NARRATOR: The red team

is doing reasonably well.

And Ji's four

acceptable scallops--

Absolutely

perfect-- well done.

[cheering]

NARRATOR: --bring

the total to .

GORDON RAMSAY: Really well done.

NARRATOR: Now it's

corporate buffet

chef Lacey's chance to prove

herself to her teammates--

Lacey, what is that?

NARRATOR: --and to chef Ramsay.

sh*t.

GORDON RAMSAY:

Out-- what a shame.

What happened there?

[music playing]

How did I do that?

Gashed once, gashed

twice, gashed three times.

Why do you look

so surprised when

you created sh*t like that?

Face like that-- was that me?

Three out of six--

that's shocking.

I think Lacey is

a complete moron.

I don't want to spend another

five minutes with her.

NARRATOR: The women successfully

shucked a total of scallops.

Leading off for the men is

executive sous chef, Ben.

Ben-- you gashed it.

That's-- that's shocking.

Out.

Where's the other half gone?

I think that a

small scallop, chef.

That is not a scallop.

That's half a scallop.

BEN: Sorry, guys.

Ben runs his mouth

about a big game.

But he has yet to put out.

Sorry, eh?

You're not exactly a f*cking

first-year apprentice, are you?

No, chef.

Three out of .

Not good enough.

Let's go, Danny.

Perfect, in.

- All right.

- Perfect.

[clapping]

Two, four, six, eight, nine--

nine out of .

Well done.

Thank you, chef.

NARRATOR: Danny has the men

moving in the right direction.

And next up is

executive chef Giovanni.

GORDON RAMSAY: Nice, perfect,

perfect, absolutely immaculate.

Giovanni-- chef was

pulling out scallop

after scallop after scallop.

Kept looking at all

the girls' faces.

They went from hero to zero--

boop.

GORDON RAMSAY: In.

out of --

really good job.

MAN: Yes.

[clapping]

GORDON RAMSAY: Robert,

show me what you got.

NARRATOR: Robert continues the

trend with five more scallops.

In general, good job.

Yes.

- Good job, Robert.

- All right, guys.

[clapping]

- Charlie, come on down.

NARRATOR: Only two

of Charlie's scallops

are accepted by Chef Ramsay.

GORDON RAMSAY: Charlie,

not good enough.

NARRATOR: The men are

trailing by three scallops.

But there are still

two chefs to go--

You got it.

NARRATOR: --Seth and J.

Seth, here we go.

What is that?

I've got half a scallop here.

Where's the other half?

I have the other

half here, chef.

Hey, f*ck yourself.

Out, out, out--

.

- All right.

[clapping]

MAN: Let's go.

.

MAN: There it is.

It's looking good, gentlemen.

Come on.

In.

DANNY: Yes!

GORDON RAMSAY: We're

tied, against .

NARRATOR: With the score

tied, J needs just one scallop

to give his team the victory.

Two, four, six-- is that all?

Yes Yes, chef.

J, dear, oh,

dear, what happened?

Kn*fe must have got

away from me there.

GORDON RAMSAY: Out.

JI: Don't make over please.

Out.

Please, please,

please, please.

Gashed in half--

out.

Gashed-- what a shame.

Out.

Oh my god.

Just get f*cking one.

You're O for five.

I've never worked

with fresh scallops,

so, uh, it's not

looking good for J.

NARRATOR: And he's

down to his last one.

[music playing]

Perfect.

Congratulations.

Yes, man!

[clapping]

[interposing voices]

Yes.

We're pumped.

Nice job.

Nice job.

OK.

Gentleman, we're doing

something quite unique.

We're spending a day on

one of the most amazing,

sought after destination

islands off the coast

of California, Catalina Island.

Yes.

[clapping]

Ladies, did not want

to lose this challenge.

Tomorrow night, for the first

time ever in Hell's Kitchen,

we are gonna feature a raw bar.

When I say raw bar, I mean, from

every oyster to every scallop,

you name it, we're having it.

And it's now your

responsibility to spend all day

setting up that raw bar.

Lacey, truthfully, do you

seriously give a sh*t?

I do, chef.

You do, yeah?

Show it to me.

Yes, chef.

She doesn't care.

She doesn't care about anything.

She doesn't care about the food.

She doesn't care about

this competition.

She doesn't care about her team.

She doesn't care.

Gentlemen, go and get changed.

Your helicopter's--

MAN: Yes, chef.

--waiting for you.

[interposing voices]

[cheering]

GORDON RAMSAY: Let's go.

Smile about that.

Woo!

Ow!

One for the blue team.

I'm so excited-- a

helicopter flown to an island.

Is that near the ocean?

[laughter]

I don't know any--

I'm from Chicago.

There's no-- there's

no islands there.

Woo!

[music playing]

[crying]

I don't know.

I just keep freaking out.

I just want to go home.

We need you %.

I talked to Lacey,

because I figured it

might help to talk to someone.

Because it usually helps

me to turn things around.

I just think you guys would

be better off without me.

So is Lacey not

going down with us?

She's not putting her sh*t on.

So she gave up.

I shouldn't be here.

At this point, I

don't even care.

And I hate to say that.

Because I know that disappoints

my family, and my fiance,

and myself, but--

We do need you.

I just don't think I'm

cut out to handle this.

Come on, Lacey.

Snap out of it, you know?

[phone ringing]

Yes, chef.

I need to see you

in my office please.

OK.

Bye.

Thank you.

Oh, f*ck, man.

Here we go.

All right, sit

down, big boy-- quick.

Good challenge.

Thank you.

Unfortunately, bad news.

The helicopter

insurance policy won't

take anyone over pounds.

Unfortunately, you weigh--

About .

About .

So there's no way you're

gonna be traveling with us.

I get a lot of crap from

society because of my size.

I felt like this was

another situation,

because of my weight, that

I was being singled out.

Hey, I still want

you to come with us.

OK.

You're just gonna

go via the ferry.

Oh, great.

Of course.

You're part of the team.

And you did bloody

well in the challenge.

Thank you, chef.

See you shortly.

Hurry Hurry up.

- Yes, chef.

Hey, get changed.

Your ferry is leaving.

Yes, chef.

Women, downstairs--

seconds.

[blowing nose]

You know, if you want to

be good for the rest of us,

you should get up

and get your coat

I don't feel good.

Give me a f*cking break.

Everyone's been babying

your ass all morning.

You really want to

start something with me?

I'm not really afraid of it.

Good riddance.

Let's go, grab

some more scallops.

I want you to save the shells.

Do not throw those away.

Start shucking.

Let's go.

What happened to Lacey?

We're a stronger

team without her, chef.

You don't give up on your

team no matter how bad it is.

I have no respect for the

girl for that simple reason.

NARRATOR: While the

women start the misery

of their punishment

minus one woman,

the men start the

fun of their reward--

This is beautiful out here.

DANNY: Yeah, it is.

NARRATOR: --minus one man.

[music playing]

GORDON RAMSAY:

Welcome to Catalina.

Isn't it beautiful?

ROBERT:

Beautiful.

Beautiful.

Hi, guys.

WORKER: Howdy.

How are you?

WORKER: Good, and you?

Thank you.

GORDON RAMSAY: Whoa--

it's great, no?

There's fish down there.

GIOVANNI: Oh, they're

coming after us.

GORDON RAMSAY: It's amazing.

- Yeah, it is.

I think this might actually

top the helicopter.

There was walls of fish

completely surrounding this,

you know, submarine.

It was awesome.

What a shame Robert

missed that one, yes?

[snoring]

NARRATOR: It's three hours

into the red team's punishment.

And Lacey is still

in bed, leaving

her teammates a little sour.

Hey, at least

she'll be well-rested.

That means her performance

will be top-notch.

Lacey isolated herself.

She's isolated herself

from the very beginning

just with her attitude.

Where do you get

your optimism from?

That's where I'm--

that's what I'm expecting.

If that's what her

f*cking problem is

and she's getting her sleep

now, she better perform.

You might want

to switch seats.

Chef--

[laughter]

f*cking A.

[interposing voices]

[laughter]

I'm kissing ass a little

bit, just wiping my nose off.

Where was I born?

Glasgow.

What was the name

of my last book?

- "Humble Pie."

- Yeah.

How many children do I have?

- Four.

I don't want to tell

you their names.

[laughter]

You know their names?

Holly, Megan,

Jack, and Matilda.

[music playing]

Seth-- he's scary.

He is coming across

as a stalker.

He knows more about Chef

Ramsay then Chef Ramsay.

It's weird.

- What else do you got for me?

Uh, what kind

of car do I drive?

You got the Lambo.

Your wife bought

you the Maranello.

J: Oh my god.

What else?

I just find it

weird that he knew

that much history about a man.

If I was the chef, I'd

be a little scared.

No, you stay there.

[laughter]

OK, no problem.

GORDON RAMSAY: Just stay there.

I'm here, don't worry.

GORDON RAMSAY: Whoa.

NARRATOR: It's six hours into

the red team's punishment.

And Lacey is starting

to feel a little better.

I can't just give up.

I'm here to compete.

I'm here to cook.

You know, I need to

be here to prove that.

I can't just go home.

Sorry I'm late.

Sorry you're late?

You're not late.

You weren't even here.

How was your nap?

It just seems like

everybody against Lacey.

And, you know,

she made that bed.

So, as the saying

goes, lay in it.

Good times, good times.

I'm so excited.

I can't wait to run down the

beach like Bo Derek, baby.

Mm, mm, slow motion--

mm.

[cheering]

GORDON RAMSAY: What

took you so long?

[laughter]

He's got the jig going on.

All right, listen.

Listen.

We've got some good

news and bad news.

OK.

GORDON RAMSAY: What

do you want first?

- The bad news.

- OK.

You're turning around.

We're all going back.

Yes?

[laughter]

OK.

[laughter]

The good news is, we had a

great day on Catalina Island.

[laughter]

Well, what the

hell did I win--

a free f*cking ferry ride?

sh*t.

Right?

Let's go, turn around.

We're going.

Let's go.

Let's get back on, Next

- Lead the way.

- You know the way.

NARRATOR: A new day

dawns in Hell's Kitchen.

And with it, a whole new Lacey.

I'm here today, ladies.

It's a new day.

Hot pan coming out.

I think Lacey is trying

to, like, turn things around.

She does seem a little

bit more lively.

What else do we need done?

[gasping]

Oh, are you OK, Ji?

You all right, hon?

I don't know what

happened to Ji.

I don't know if there was water

or oil dropped somewhere up--

and all of a sudden,

you hear, ow!

And she might've sprained it.

I'm not sure.

It doesn't look good.

Go ahead and

try to keep it up.

I know.

I know.

I'm in pain.

My ankle feels like sh*t.

Keep this on ice for a

little bit longer here, OK?

OK.

I don't know if I can do

this dinner service tonight.

She's hurt really bad.

Oh, I know.

Ji-- Ji, you all right?

I'm worried that she really

can't go to service tonight.

If she has to go home, I

mean, that's really bad.

All right, guys,

come over, please.

Quick, let's go, guys.

Yes, chef.

NARRATOR: Hell's Kitchen

is about to open.

And the aspiring chefs

are feeling the pressure

to put their best foot forward.

Tonight, for the very first

time ever in Hell's Kitchen,

we have a raw bar.

Every customer walking

through that door

will get a nice,

welcoming appetizer,

and hopefully give us

a little bit more time

to get out appetizers out, yes?

Yes, chef.

NARRATOR: Now operating the raw

bar for the red team tonight

will be--

Chef?

Oh.

Chef, I just wanted

to let you know

that I hurt my ankle, chef.

Are you all right?

I think I'll be OK.

But I'd like to go through

service and see how I feel,

chef.

I'd like to stay as well.

Yes, chef.

I'm hoping for the

best and that I will be

able to pull through service.

You know, I can't

let my girls down.

Paula.

Yes, chef.

You can do it.

Yes Yes, chef.

Operating the raw bar for

the blue team will be Robert.

Yes, chef.

You got to be

kidding me, dude.

Serve it?

Do you see how big I am trying

to squeeze by these tables?

What are we waiting for?

f*ck off in your sections.

Let's go.

[interposing voices]

GORDON RAMSAY:

OK, Jean-Philippe.

- Yes, chef.

- Open Hell's Kitchen, yes?

- Yes, chef.

- Let's go.

Move.

[music playing]

I'm going to have the

pan-roasted scallops.

PAULA: OK.

OK, ladies.

On order, four for table

-- two spaghetti,

one risotto, one scallops.

Entree-- two chicken,

one lamb, one salmon.

Yes, chef!

[interposing voices]

NARRATOR: This fresh seafood

raw bar has the added benefit

of giving the

kitchens extra cooking

time to hopefully avoid another

disastrous dinner service.

Do you have

everything you need?

Yes.

Yeah?

You're sweating a bit, no?

Well, I'm pounds.

Yeah.

GORDON RAMSAY: Let's go.

- Are you busy?

Can you do the-- can you do the

pasta while I do the risotto?

Yes, I'm doing the pasta.

I'm doing the pasta.

[inaudible]

Scallops, risotto,

two spaghetti-- yes?

How long?

Where is the risotto?

I b*rned the garlic.

You b*rned the garlic?

Yes, chef.

Carol gets so

flustered and anxious.

She needs to keep

her head straight.

Where is the f*cking risotto?

It's coming, chef.

It's coming.

Come on, please.

Come on.

What the f*ck is that?

What is that?

Hey, madam, what is that?

What is that?

Look.

It doesn't f*cking come out.

What is that?

Sorry, chef.

Are you f*cking stupid?

No, I'm not stupid, chef.

Oh my god.

Chef Ramsay sent back a

few that honestly I thought

were really good.

I'm starting over on

those two risotto.

OK, thank you.

I just know that at

this point, whatever

station I'm on with

whoever I'm on,

I'm gonna have to

take the reins--

no matter what.

What am I doing

wrong with the risotto?

Just keep-- just concentrate.

Just concentrate.

I am concentrating.

That's how I would

have served it.

So what am I doing wrong?

NARRATOR: While Carol tries to

work through a sticky situation

with her risotto, Chef Ramsay

is hoping for a better batch

from--

- Johnny.

- Yes, chef.

GORDON RAMSAY: Come on, fucker.

Let's go.

Taste.

Come on, taste.

Undercooked.

No cream in there, no marscapone

cream cheese, no seasoning,

more ham in there.

What's going on over there?

Just-- I've never made these.

I'm just trying to

figure it out, chef.

You've never made a risotto.

Ben, make him a risotto.

OK, so you got your

stock, you're right.

You're gonna take your spoon.

And you're gonna check

the done-ness of the rice,

because your seasoning's

already in there, right?

I know how to make the risotto.

I'm gonna show

you what I can do.

I try to help other

people in the kitchen,

because that's who I am.

I'm someone who helps.

You can't dwell.

Let's just move forward.

Yep.

I'm here now, and

we're making a dish.

NARRATOR: With no food

leaving the men's kitchen,

Robert does his best to keep

the blue diners entertained.

Hi, my name is Robert.

Hi, Robert.

Welcome to Hell's Kitchen.

When I was doing the raw bar,

it was just pour on the charm.

Thank you.

Oh, the koi fish.

So it matches the--

the theme, right?

Robert did a superb job.

He's a good man.

He's a good man.

NARRATOR: It's minutes

into dinner service.

And despite a rough start,

appetizers are finally

leaving the red kitchen.

WOMAN: It was worth the wait.

That is good.

[laughter]

NARRATOR: But not for long.

Third ticket.

Colleen, two minutes!

The scallops are

cooked, aren't they?

Yes.

Why are they still in

the pan if they're cooked?

They're gonna be

over-cooked, you stupid cow.

Oh my god.

Who cooked the

scallops last service?

Who was that?

- I did, chef.

Come here.

Show her how to cook

a f*cking scallop.

Hey, by the way, she's not

in charge of a kitchen.

Hey, this is free now--

free lesson.

Colleen runs a cooking school.

She has no experience on the

line, and it clearly shows.

Teach madam here how to

cook a f*cking scallop.

- Yes, sir.

- sh*t!

I almost felt

honored, in a weird way.

GORDON RAMSAY: Unbelievable!

- It's OK.

It's all right.

GORDON RAMSAY: Ji.

- Yes, chef.

GORDON RAMSAY: Is

your ankle hurting?

Yes, chef.

Yes, so is my f*cking head.

It's throbbing.

NARRATOR: While Lacey tutors

the culinary teacher, over

in the blue kitchen,

Ben is ready to impress

the chef with a new risotto.

OK, we're gonna put that up.

Look, taste it.

That's delicious.

- Yes, chef!

- Yes, chef.

- Good for me.

That's good.

I don't need a pat on the back.

Thank you, chef.

But you know what?

I finally put something up

that, in his mind, was good.

NARRATOR: Charlie's risotto

made by Ben passes the test.

And now Colleen's scallops,

made by Lacey, are ready.

Thank you, Lacey.

LACEY: You're welcome, chef.

GORDON RAMSAY: Colleen--

you see the difference?

COLLEEN: Yes, I do, chef.

GORDON RAMSAY:

Pink in the middle.

Colored both sides, yes?

Yes I do, chef.

Hey, did she charge you?

No, chef.

Well, thank f*ck for that.

Let's go.

God bless Nebraska.

[music playing]

NARRATOR: It's an hour and a

half and into dinner service.

And appetizers are finally

leaving the blue kitchen.

Seth and Charlie have

delivered their lobster

spaghetti to the pass.

-

GORDON RAMSAY: There's no

f*cking lobster in here.

Doesn't look like it, no.

NARRATOR: But it's missing

one key ingredient.

Hey, f*ck this.

Come here, you.

Come here.

What's this?

There's no f*cking

lobster in it.

sh*t.

How can you give it to me

with no lobster in there?

We're stupid, chef.

Apologies.

Wake up, Charlie!

Yes, chef.

Yes, chef.

I knew you were docile,

you f*cking idiot.

What is the dish called?

Uh, uh--

Spaghetti and lobster.

[music playing]

I feel like I just

got hit by a train.

NARRATOR: Disgusted

with the blue kitchen,

Chef Ramsay looks for some

good news from the women, who

have now moved on to entrees.

GORDON RAMSAY: Oh my god.

Come here, you.

Hey, Colleen, come here.

Carol, Lacey, come here.

I want now two wellington, yes,

one salmon, and one John Dory.

Why is the John Dory?

- I don't have the John Dory.

- You don't have it.

Hey, love, come here.

Hey, there you go.

Look at that.

Look, look.

Hold on.

Hey, don't run away.

It's black!

On top of that,

as an added bonus,

it's f*cking raw in the middle.

COLLEEN: Yes, chef.

f*cking useless, f*cking sh*t.

You're not a cooking

school teacher, are you?

You're joking, aren't you?

No, I'm not joking, chef.

I am a cook--

Tell me.

Tell me you're pumping yourself

up to make yourself look good.

You don't really have

a cooking school.

No, chef.

I own a cooking school.

I have a business

just like you do.

Your f*cking business

is not like my business.

Hey, madam.

Let's get that f*cking right.

It's not.

You're right.

You're robbing people.

You're a thief!

I'm concerned for

the poor bastards

that you've taken money off of.

Hey, madam.

Madam, lift that lid off.

It looks black.

It is black.

Oh, god.

COLLEEN: Both of them.

Oh, sh*t.

sh*t!

It's black.

COLLEEN: Yes, chef.

Oh my god.

These are burning.

I know.

Hey, madam.

Madam, get out!

Get in the raw bar.

Lacey-- Lacey!

Yes, chef.

Get on the fish.

Chef Ramsay's definitely

not gonna break me.

He can ask me to leave.

He can kick me out the kitchen.

He can do all those things.

But he's not gonna break me.

Paula, On the meat,

yeah-- with Coi.

Talk to me, Coi.

What do you need, girl?

NARRATOR: While Paula settles

into the meat station,

Chef Ramsay turns his attention

to the blue kitchen's entrees.

Two wellington, one

chicken, one lamb.

The lamb garnish is up, Danny.

GORDON RAMSAY: So

where's the lamb?

Coming down, coming down.

MAN: Got it.

Right behind you, chef.

[music playing]

That's nicely cooked,

that lamb, Danny.

Thank you, chef.

I was on cloud nine.

It feels good to get some

compliments from Chef Ramsay.

The cooking's spot on.

J: Yeah, his meat's great.

Go.

NARRATOR: It's two and a half

hours into dinner service.

And thanks to Danny, entrees

are moving quickly out

of the blue kitchen.

[laughter]

WOMAN: It's amazing.

It's good.

- Great.

WOMAN: Yeah, it's very good.

MAN: Pefect.

Hey, Ji, you need to work

two more Dory's after that

and two more wellingtons.

Two minutes out on that.

Ji, how you feeling?

Just don't remind me.

I've got my mental

focus right now.

So no more, no more.

Done.

That girl rocked tonight.

You could not even tell that

she was hurt as bad as she is.

Guys, this is our team

work picking up here.

LACEY: Come on, guys.

NARRATOR: While Ji is struggling

to make it through service,

the blue team is trying

to push out their entrees.

Giovanni.

- Yes, chef.

- Hey, all of you, come here.

Hey.

He's cooking his

ass off surrounded

by five Muppets, yeah?

His temperature's perfect.

And then I get that

bit of sh*t there.

Yeah, I got given that.

Would you eat that?

Go on, eat it.

Eat it.

Would you eat that?

- No, chef.

- Would you eat that?

- No, chef.

- Hey, you can be pissed off.

You got every f*cking

right to be pissed off.

You know that.

Yes?

Yes, chef.

f*cking raw!

I've never had a chef come

that close to me in my life.

And he can yell at me

from across the kitchen.

He doesn't have to get two

inches away from my face.

Hey, is that your pink?

Prep chef.

You can prep a f*cking scallop.

You can't cook a f*cking salmon.

Come on, Giovanni.

GIOVANNI: Yes, chef.

NARRATOR: Despite Giovanni

slowing down his team,

the high quality

of these chefs is

showing, as both kitchens

are close to completing

their dinner service.

Gentlemen, come

here, quickly--

all of you.

Hey, ladies, come here.

Move, quick.

Let's go.

Hey, you've got

five tables to go.

You got four tables to go.

Whatever team finishes and

pushes it out is gonna win.

Move your asses.

[interposing voices]

Speed up.

Move, huh?

[interposing voices]

And I mean move, let's go.

Chef called back that the

girls had five tickets left,

and we had four tickets left.

The second he said that,

a switch turned on.

And we busted ass.

Lamb garnish, beef

garnish, let's go.

Guys, push this food.

We are winning!

Ready?

Are we ready?

We're ready.

[interposing voices]

Red team is

absolutely going to win.

And one of the boys

is gonna go. home.

What do you need?

We got the John Dory down.

We've got to win this.

We have to send someone

from the red team home.

We have to put the

pressure on them now.

Go please.

We have three more tickets.

Let's go.

- Speed up a bit.

Yes, chef.

This is the last

couple tickets.

Come on, guys--

whatever we can do.

They don't put food up

as quickly as we do.

The blue team is hungrier.

GORDON RAMSAY: Go, please.

I got chicken.

I got lamb going

up right behind it.

And that fills the whole board.

[interposing voices]

GORDON RAMSAY: Go, please.

Hey, come on.

We need a sizzle plate.

Anybody?

Come on, guys.

One ticket.

Let's do this.

- One ticket-- we can do it.

Guys, how long on

that final ticket?

- I'm ready.

- He's got it.

I'm waiting on you, man.

Going to the window.

Come on ladies,

one ticket left.

Carol, you ready?

No, I'm not ready!

Not yet.

Three minutes.

[music playing]

Carol definitely put

us behind the eight-ball.

It was pathetic.

It really was.

Move, come on.

Yes, chef.

Let's go, let's go,

let's go, let's go.

f*ck.

Hot plate, chef.

Lamb wellington, chef.

One for the team here--

come on, come on.

GORDON RAMSAY: Go,

go, go, table one.

Clear down.

Blue is done, chef.

You got it out.

Great job!

Yes.

Let's go!

Boy oh boy, this

is a sweet victory.

We kicked these

girls ass, you know,

each which way to Wednesday.

Let's go.

Let's start cleaning

it up, team.

GORDON RAMSAY: By the way,

the boys have just finished.

[music playing]

I need to elevate my

foot, because I hurt it.

I need to put it on ice.

NARRATOR: While the women are

upset by their dinner service

defeat, they're

equally concerned

about their teammate's injury.

Give us a hug.

Hey, Hi, you're

not going home.

Yeah.

I feel like a

burden to you guys.

And.

- No way.

We're a team, and you are a

strong member of this team.

Ji, you're gonna be fine

in a couple days, girl.

Well, I think Ji did very well.

And I completely forgot

that she was hurt.

And, you know, until she

says I can't do it anymore,

she's gonna be there

hammering it out.

She's a strong girl.

- You deserve to be here.

Thanks.

LACEY: You're gonna be fine, OK?

[music playing]

NARRATOR: Even though Chef

Ramsay has already declared

the blue team the

winner, he does

have some encouraging words

for a member of the red team.

GORDON RAMSAY: Ji.

Yes, chef.

GORDON RAMSAY: Courageous

effort on one foot,

and clearly in a lot of pain.

- Thank you, chef.

More importantly,

you didn't give up.

I think quite a few in

this room this evening

would have given up.

Colleen.

Yes, chef.

GORDON RAMSAY: You know what

they say in the industry.

With the people

that can't cook--

psst-- they teach.

That's not true, chef.

GORDON RAMSAY: Well,

it f*cking was tonight.

Chef, I know how to cook fish.

You made me nervous.

I started doing things

that I don't normally do.

And you have every right

to be angry with me

for wasting the fish.

It's like she's talking

out of her assh*le sometimes.

You're just like, seriously,

just shut the f*ck up.

You frazzle my mind.

Every time I look at

you, I think of headache.

Get back to the dorm, yes?

Yes, chef.

All of you,

amongst yourselves,

decide on which two are gonna

be nominated for elimination.

Gentlemen, piss off.

[music playing]

NARRATOR: While Ji's injured

ankle gets some attention,

her teammates focus their

attention on which two of them

should be nominated.

I have to take responsibility.

I-- I don't want to be up.

You went over

there to help her.

You did a good job

on the fish in that.

Thank you.

I still think that-- you

know, I don't think you're gonna

be fit to run a kitchen.

That's not fair.

If you--

Lacey, Lacey, don't

ever say it's not fair.

Because you want to

know what's not fair?

Yesterday, you took your

f*cking ass to the bed,

and you slept all f*cking day.

And you cried like a

f*cking baby all day long.

I turned it around.

I became a team player again.

I think Carol should be

put up for elimination just

because she f*cking

everything up.

It's not fair.

The-- the personal

side of me can't stand

the f*ck out of you.

Carol's just so quick

to call other people out,

but Carol didn't do as well

as she's thinking she did.

We all f*ck up at our stations.

The fact remains that one of the

ladies is gonna be going home.

None of us are safe.

[music playing]

NARRATOR: While the men

are safe for tonight,

the red team is about

to feel the pain--

[moan]

--of losing a teammate.

[music playing]

LA, first nominee

and why, please.

We as a group came to

the decision, Colleen

as our first nominee,

just because she

wasn't really calling

back and listening well.

And she gives you a headache.

A f*cking big one.

Second nominee and why.

Our second nominee

is Lacey, because she

has no confidence in herself.

And it shows.

OK.

Lacey, Colleen, step forward.

[music playing]

Lacey, why should you stay

inside Hell's Kitchen?

I will admit that

the past couple days,

I have not had

confidence in myself.

But I woke up.

And I do have

confidence in myself.

And I want to show my team

that, you know, I can do it

and that I'm there for them.

- Colleen.

I am % committed.

I have been since the beginning.

And I want to prove

to myself and to you

that I am deserving of

this position, chef.

Are you better than Lacey?

I am % better than Lacey.

You know, I had to

take over her station

to get the entrees out.

I'm not saying I know a

lot more than Colleen,

but I think I could do a

better job in the long run.

I will make this team

a stronger team, chef.

And that's what you wanted

in the kitchen tonight.

You wanted our best.

I am sorry I did

not give it to you.

But I would like the

opportunity to try again.

Thank you.

You're giving me a headache.

Yes, chef.

[music playing]

It gashed three times.

Why do you look

so surprised when

you created sh*t like that?

Face like that-- was that me?

It's f*cking raw in the middle.

Yes, chef.

You're robbing people!

You're a thief!

My decision is-- chef.

[music playing]

Chef.

Ji.

Yes, chef.

You OK?

Chef, um, it's

an honor to work

with you in your kitchen, chef.

But I'd like to volunteer.

I feel that I'm half a

manpower in your kitchen, chef.

But still better than

what's standing in front of us

at half half power.

I want the girls,

the red team, to win.

Colleen, Lacey, both

of you, get back in line.

Thank you, chef.

GORDON RAMSAY: Get back in line.

[music playing]

-

You, madam--

- Yes, chef.

--yes-- have been phenomenal.

Thank you, chef.

A talented girl.

But unfortunately, due

to the circumstances,

it's not fair to

continue going on--

I know, chef.

--under that amount of pain.

Keep hold of your jacket--

Thank you, chef.

--as a symbol

of courage, pride.

Because you've done bloody well.

Yes, chef.

Thank you, chef.

[music playing]

[applause]

JI: I know I could

have gone all the way.

It sucks to leave, you

know, because of an injury.

I'd rather be leaving because

of lack of skill or something,

you know?

Maybe it was just

not meant to be.

Every one of you in here, pick

up on that level of courage.

That's courage at its best.

And my god, was she in pain.

That's what I call commitment.

Get some sleep.

- Yes, chef.

Yes, chef.

[interposing voices]

I'm angry that Ji is

gone and Colleen and Lacey

are still here.

It's not fair.

Colleen and Lacey are

gonna have a really

hard time filling Ji's shoes.

I'm really happy that

I get this second chance

to prove myself.

And I think if I just

keep my mouth shut--

think nasty thoughts,

not say nasty thoughts--

I think we'll be OK.

I do call this a successful

evening for the blue team.

If you Put Colleen and Lacey

together and you made one cook,

I think you'd still

have half of what

Ji's able to do on the line.

If Ji leaving works to our

advantage, then good for us.

GORDON RAMSAY: Ji

showed great courage.

Unfortunately, her injury

got in the way of her dream.

She had a chance to win this.

But sadly, we will

never, ever know.

NARRATOR: Next time

on "Hell's Kitchen--"

You just turned on

your bitch switch.

NARRATOR: --the claws come out.

Oh, I sure have a bitch switch.

And you f*cking hit

it every f*cking time.

NARRATOR: And no one is safe.

[screaming]

[inaudible]

There was, like,

blood on the ground.

GORDON RAMSAY: f*ck, move now!

NARRATOR: The chefs

take a field trip--

MAN: Does anybody have

a heart condition?

Is anybody afraid of heights?

NARRATOR: --that leaves

a lasting impression.

I'm so f*cking

humiliated right now.

NARRATOR: At dinner--

Steak Kn*fe, let's go.

NARRATOR: --the chefs

are willing to lie--

Have you been

drinking or sniffing?

No, chef.

NARRATOR: --cheat--

Oh, no, no.

Come here.

You're f*cking pathetic.

NARRATOR: --and steal--

Bingo.

The most expensive part!

NARRATOR: --to win

a head chef position

at Borgata in Atlantic City.

You will do anything,

we have to do to win.

NARRATOR: But one chef

pays a hefty price--

Today, me and my fiance

Jamie were to be married.

NARRATOR: --all next time

on a "Hell's Kitchen" you

absolutely don't want to miss.
