[music playing]
NARRATOR: Previously
on "Hell's Kitchen,"
aspiring chefs had
their first encounter
with Gordon Ramsay.
GORDON RAMSAY: Who's this?
NARRATOR: But the chef
was far from impressed.
That is absolute dog shit.
The spices are far
too bloody hot.
I've got a palate
like a cow's backside.
NARRATOR: With virtually
no time to settle in,
they received shocking news.
Tonight, Hell's Kitchen is open.
Oh, my god.
I don't have the potatoes.
Chef Chef Ramsay
quickly realized
that turning one of these
people into a Master Chef
was going to be more difficult
than he ever imagined.
Do it again, OK?
Carolann, get on
the stove and help.
Did you hear my question?
Answer it.
NARRATOR: And no matter where he
turned, from the red kitchen--
Can you all just shut up?
We'll do it perfectly.
NARRATOR: --to
the blue kitchen--
No talking.
Concentrate.
NARRATOR: --neither
team could deliver.
This restaurant is sinking
faster than a Titanic.
Shut it down.
NARRATOR: After a
disastrous first night,
Chef Ramsay declared
the red team the losers,
and gave Elsie a
huge responsibility.
I want you to nominate two
of your team for elimination.
I'm not in a good
place right now.
NARRATOR: And although
Elsie assured Dewberry
that he was safe--
If I get picked
and chef decides
it's time for me to go--
- Enough.
You're not going anywhere.
NARRATOR: --ultimately,
she turned her back on him.
My second nominee is Dewberry.
NARRATOR: With Carolann
as her other nominee,
Chef Ramsay was surprised
by her decision.
Jeff, you dodged those
b*ll*ts well tonight.
NARRATOR: But in the
end, it was Carolann
who lost her dream,
just hours
after entering Hell's Kitchen.
I told you, never, ever
turn your back on the team.
Hell's Kitchen no
longer needs you.
NARRATOR: And now, with
a continuation of "Hell's
Kitchen."
Having survived their first
day in Hell's Kitchen,
the remaining head
back to the dorms
for some much needed rest.
Narrowly escaping elimination,
Dewberry seeks a moment alone.
But he's not alone.
[inaudible]
That was really hard.
I know.
I'm sorry.
It's really difficult to
really hold much of a grudge.
But if the next time
it were me picked,
it would be payback time.
Jeff, dude, you lucked out.
You were fired.
Yeah, I feel relieved.
But you know what?
I feel like I've
got one more day.
What kind of breakfast
are you going to be
making Elsie tomorrow morning?
That's my big cur--
I'm a little curious right
now, because he wanted
you something ferocious, man.
Jeff, boy, oh, boy.
You dodged those b*ll*ts
well tonight, you know that?
He wanted me out.
He wanted you something bad.
He's going to look for
some improvement is what
he's going to look for now.
NARRATOR: After a
torturous first night,
Chef Ramsay decides to send
the teams a wake-up call,
both figuratively and literally.
[pots and pans banging]
This morning, I
heard all this banging.
At first, I thought
maybe it was somebody
running through with a g*n.
You just never know these days.
Wake up now.
It's showtime.
Chef wants you in the kitchen.
In the kitchen now.
Chef [inaudible],,
don't touch anything.
Just get in the kitchen now for
role call, now, now, now, now.
Put your clothes
on and let's go.
Chef Ramsay has a plan to
turn Hell's Kitchen around,
and he's looking to
get an early start.
It didn't feel
great standing there
in front of the blue team,
which was all ready to go,
and Chef Ramsay was
just shaking his head,
wondering where Chris was.
NARRATOR: Nearly seven minutes
after everyone has gathered,
Chris finally shows up.
Good morning.
Good morning, chef.
Blue team, you actually
arrived as a team.
Not bad.
Chris--
years experience in
a professional kitchen,
last one in, lazy fucker.
Pathetic.
I suggest you're up
first next roll call.
Yeah, chef.
You don't leave that
dorm until your team
are standing with you.
- Yeah chef.
Is that clear?
Yeah, chef.
Thank you, chef.
And last night's performance
wasn't good for any of you.
We had a bad, bad night.
And we're still going to put
that behind us and move on.
OK, follow me.
NARRATOR: Everything Chef
Ramsay does has a purpose.
Today's lesson is a challenge
that will teach the importance
of attention to detail.
It was lovely, beautiful
silver tray in front of us
and a zucchini laid out.
I thought we were going
learn how to peel a zucchini.
Lift off your domes.
When I saw all those squid,
my heart just sank because I
absolutely hate seafood.
I don't like anything
that comes out of the sea.
NARRATOR: After
Carolann's departure
from "Hell's Kitchen," the
red team is down a member.
So Chef Ramsay needs
to even out the teams.
Michael?
Yeah?
You've prepared squid before?
Yeah.
Good.
Sit out this challenge, please.
NARRATOR: Chef Ramsay has put
squid on the menu for tomorrow
night's meal service.
After a quick demo on how
to properly clean a squid,
the team's attention to
detail will be tested.
Make sure you keep
them whole, because we're
stuffing them whole.
So therefore, they
have to stay intact.
NARRATOR: They'll have
minutes to clean
this many squid as they can.
The team that has the
most squid's cleaned
is having dinner with
me, cooked and prepared
by me this evening.
A privately cooked
dinner by Chef
Ramsay, that doesn't happen too
often to anybody in the world.
How cool of a thing is that?
The losing team
will be prepping
squid for the entire
restaurant while we're
enjoying our dinner.
minutes, go.
NARRATOR: A perfect squid
requires the tentacles removed
and the guts
completely cleaned out.
Get your fingers
right down inside.
You got to stick your
hand into this nasty squid,
and take out all this
gookty, gucky, nasty stuff.
It was so gross first
thing in the morning,.
NARRATOR: They must
also remove the skin
on the outside and the inside.
Turn it inside out now.
GORDON RAMSAY: Come on, Andy.
Wow, gotcha.
There can't be any
holes or tears anywhere.
GORDON RAMSAY: Come on, Jimmy.
There you go.
Dewberry seemed
to have had a pretty
good handle on that cucumber.
But then again, I
expected all the guys
to handle that pretty well.
seconds.
Come on.
Chris, come on.
Andrew, come on.
Stop.
Down, down, down, down.
Time to find out who is
having dinner with me.
Red team first.
NARRATOR: Jeff, Jimmy, and
Elsie, each have one squid,
giving the red team three.
Now, it's Dewberry's turn.
Dewberry, no tear on the
outside, four for the red,
and clean in the middle.
I actually got two
whole perfect squid out.
I think it really energized me.
It brought me back from
the dead after almost
getting eliminated.
NARRATOR: Chris has
cleaned four squid.
But how many will be acceptable.
Our executive plate,
skin left on, huge tail
on the outside, big hole in the
bottom, clean in the middle.
One.
Big deal.
OK, red team, six.
Blue team, Ralph,
clean inside, one.
No tear, well done, two.
Jessica, no tear on the outside.
Wendy--
I think Gordon's
going to love the fact
that I'm a perfectionist.
--big tear at the
bottom, feels very full.
Bad one.
Forgot to take the
skin off of the inside.
That's very lazy.
That one I stopped because
the hole was too big.
That one you stopped.
Now you're blaming the squid.
Mary Ellen, no tear on the
outside, clean on the inside.
Clean, well done, two.
NARRATOR: With Mary Ellen's two,
that gives the blue team five.
Now, it all comes
down to Andrew.
We have one left.
Andrew, it's clean on the
inside, clean on the outside,
but a big f*cking
hole at the bottom.
Red team, you're the winners.
[applause]
That was crap.
That squid, as far as I'm
concerned, was perfect.
Red team, we're having
dinner tonight together.
Thank you, chef.
Blue team, you're
going to be preparing
squid whilst we eat dinner.
Clean down and get dressed.
Well, red team's going
to get a little face
time with the chef today.
That's going to be good
for them while we're
in the back cleaning squid.
You guys think I let you down?
You know what?
I didn't turn
anything out either.
Mine was clean on the
inside, I'm telling you.
Yeah, and my hole was minuscule.
So how do you say
never lose again?
[non-english speech],, which
means we will not lose again.
[non-english speech]?
Close.
[non-english speech]
There you go.
Can that be out
battle cry for the day?
[non-english-speech]
Good.
NARRATOR: Both teams
head to the kitchen
for a much needed training
session with Chef Ramsay.
The key ingredient to Chef
Ramsay's successful restaurant
empire is his ability to
train others to maintain
his quality of excellence.
OK, it's cooking time.
Salmon, we all love salmon.
This is our cooking
liqueur, just
a very simple vegetable stock.
And that's the most important
thing about my particular food
is clean.
So you can actually
eat it blindfolded
and identify flavors.
And that's what
you guys are going
to do over the next few weeks.
You're going to
think along my lines.
Yes, chef.
NARRATOR: After a
full day of training,
the red team heads
off to the dorm
to clean up for dinner
and valuable time
with Chief Ramsay.
The blue team stays
in the kitchen.
Yeah, You chef.
There you go.
For morale boost,
the win was huge.
We needed it badly.
And to have Gordon
Ramsay cook for me
and have the pleasure to
eat with him is unreal.
Look at you, J.Lo.
Five people are going to sit
down while this amazing chef
gets to cook for them all, and
they can laugh, and drink wine,
and be merry while I'm going
to be knee deep in ink,
squid, and crap.
I'm definitely jealous of that.
Oh, snap.
How are we doing, blue team.
Excellent.
How are we doing, red team?
- [inaudible], buddy.
- You guys looking good.
Feeling good, Ralphie.
Yeah.
Now you're sitting there.
That's where you're
sitting, next to me.
Welcome.
Gentlemen, sit down, please.
How are you, Jimmy?
Doing well, chef.
How about yourself?
I'm not going to
show off too much,
but I'm pretty sure
they're going to be
looking over at us salivating.
That looks pretty nice out
there, having some champagne,
it looks like.
Yep, that certainly
looks like champagne.
Instead, we're sitting
here cleaning squid.
How do you manage all
of those restaurant--
A phenomenal team.
years we've been together.
I pushed them to the
extreme to turn them
into something quite special.
I get more satisfied
watching the talent
become serious talent.
It was amazing to get to
know him on a little bit more
of a personal level, to
hear about his experience.
Jeff, how's your ravioli?
Outstanding.
The lobster's perfect.
It's not dry.
The salmon's not dry.
It's absolutely perfect.
Are there more in the
back, or is this it?
It's been a nice,
pleasant evening.
Thank you, chef.
[interposing voices]
NARRATOR: It's the end of
another long day in Hell's
Kitchen, and everyone has
gone to bed exhausted,
everyone except Jeff.
[groaning]
Are you OK, Jeff?
Whatever.
NARRATOR: After a night of
very little sleep for all,
day three in Hell's Kitchen
begins with the hot topic.
What's really wrong with Jeff?
He keeps moaning.
I've got this
abdominal pain like I've
never felt in my life.
He's like, it's wrecking me.
[moaning]
I have a previous
history of kidney stones,
and I had one last night.
I got really nauseous and then
the pain got really intense.
He's like, he was standing
there, and I touched him,
and he fell to the ground.
I don't know that I
necessarily believed it.
I would think maybe he's
a bit of a hypochondriac,
is what it seems like.
Just like the
worst timing ever.
Get better, buddy.
We're going to get you
back in the action.
I'll be back.
NARRATOR: Tonight,
Hell's Kitchen
opens for the second time.
With the only new item
on the menu being squid,
the chef is not only expecting
improvement, he's demanding it.
[inaudible]
NARRATOR: The red team
will cook all the meals
for the red tables,
and the blue team
will cook for an equal
number of blue tables.
Chef Ramsey keeps a
watchful eye on both teams
and their progress.
Let's go, big boy.
Dewberry, just all it takes
so that he can sort of
get stuff going a little bit.
Yes, chef.
- Have you tasted it?
- Not yet.
No, sir.
So you cooked it, and
you haven't tasted it.
I think you should taste it.
You tell me what you think.
No, no, you don't just
stand there and waddle off
and nod your head.
Tell me what you think.
I think it's good, the pasta.
I think it's just
done and it's got
just a little bit of the chili
flavor to it, but not too much.
That's nice.
That's very nice.
Make sure everyone's like that.
Yes, chef.
Dewberry is definitely
on the right track.
Meanwhile, in the blue kitchen,
self-proclaimed perfectionist
Wendy is trying to find her way.
I'm worried about
organizing everything
else because once the order
comes in I got to cook it.
NARRATOR: Just minutes before
Hell's Kitchen opens for only
the second time, Chef
Ramsay has some final words
for both teams.
OK, guys, line up, please.
Red team there,
follow blue team.
Right, how are you feeling?
- Good, chef.
- Good, chef.
That was pathetic.
How are you feeling?
Good, chef.
OK, first night's service was
really bad, really bad, yes?
Yes, chef.
OK, tonight, we're going
to make up for it big time.
Yes, That's chef.
OK, blue team, one more
thing I forgot to tell you,
because you lost
the squid challenge,
there is additional
punishment this evening.
Throughout the blue
team's kitchen,
there is going to be
no air conditioning.
My first night in my very
own restaurant, five minutes
after that first table arrived,
the air conditioning went down.
It was a nightmare.
And you don't
throw the towel in.
You stand there like
a man, and you sweat,
and you get on with it, and
you feed those customers.
Is that clear?
Yes, chef.
Gentlemen, switch
down the fans.
Let's get to work.
Let's go.
Let's go.
No air conditioning,
and that is going to suck.
And so it's going to get
really hot, and real stressful
in there really quick.
But we're going to
pull through, I think.
Here's your f*cking
thermometer right there.
Let's get back to work.
Let's get our station set
up and ready for dinner.
Organization
[inaudible] tonight.
Let's go.
NARRATOR: Even though very
few people were fed on opening
night, Hell's Kitchen
is booked solid
for its second dinner service.
Now, the restaurant
patrons are randomly seated
at the red and blue tables.
But they don't care
which kitchen their food
comes out of.
Welcome.
Welcome to the restaurant.
NARRATOR: What
they do care about
is that the food
lives up to Chef
Ramsay's world class standards.
There's a nice
selection of five
starters, five main
courses, and five desserts.
NARRATOR: Once again,
Gordon Ramsay's reputation
is on the line, and he's
looking for the aspiring chefs
to show him they
have what it takes.
So far, none of them have.
First big service on our
opening night really sucked.
And it was just shockingly bad.
I'm so pissed off.
I'm not prepared to see any
more shit food coming out.
It's really embarrassing.
Second night opening
in Hell's Kitchen,
we're going to turn
it around a bit.
NARRATOR: minutes
into service, orders
are piling into both kitchens.
Chef Ramsay is looking
for the appetizers
to come out of the blue kitchen.
OK, Wendy, two
risottos, please.
Two risotto away, chef.
Away now.
Where's thew Caesar salad.
A minute, chef.
Come on.
This is your first table.
Come on, Mary Ellen.
Come on, come on,
come on, come on.
- It's crispy.
- Thank you.
There we go, crispy bacon.
Hallelujah.
NARRATOR: Mary Ellen's Caesar
salad heads out to the dining
room without a snag.
And the blue team seems
to be handling the heat.
Meanwhile, in the red
kitchen, it's Dewberry's turn
with his appetizer.
Go, come on, please.
Pick it up.
Oh, the no way.
Look at this, man.
You don't understand.
This looks fabulous.
The spaghetti is amazing.
The squid is spectacular.
NARRATOR: With pleased
patrons in the dining room,
the red kitchen is
off to a good start.
Over in the blue kitchen,
the chef is anxiously
awaiting Wendy's risotto.
Wendy, how long for
two bloody risotto?
Coming up right now, chef.
Thank you.
Hallelujah.
Put it down.
Have you seen this?
Yeah, chef.
The rice is crunchy.
This is turning out
to be a bit of a joke.
Another five minutes, chef.
I'm sorry.
I have to start from scratch.
It's the second
table, sweetheart.
Come on.
Who's making the risotto?
Right here, chef.
Let's go, guys, yeah?
- Coming, chef.
- You wanna do it?
Go.
Wendy had a little bit of a
rough start out of the gate.
Two risotto I need now.
I'm going to get the job done.
So by me picking up a little
bit of the slack, no sweat.
I'll take care of it.
Ralph, here we go.
Yeah, go, table two.
Thank you.
Very nice, Ralph.
You got it.
Risotto, ma'am?
Thank you very much.
NARRATOR: By stepping in and
making the risotto for Wendy,
Ralph impressed the
chef with his teamwork
and kept the blue kitchen
from falling behind.
That is really good.
NARRATOR: One hour into
service, the red tables
have received all
their appetizers.
It appears the red team has come
a long way since opening night.
They've delivered their first
main courses to the hot plate.
But before they can go out,
Chef Ramsay needs the vegetable
garnishes from Jeff.
Spinach, please?
Spinach, please?
Right here, chef.
I had it.
- I had it, here we go.
- I did.
I put it back on.
I didn't realize.
Just give me the
f*cking spinach, Jeff.
Look, there's the food.
Yes, chef.
Hello?
It's there.
You can have the
meat standing there
or the fish sat there
waiting for the vegetables.
Why should everything
else suffer?
Can you not see
that that's burned?
- Yeah, chef.
- Yeah?
So you're mixing away
like a f*cking donkey.
I was keeping that
on the other side.
- Oh, really?
- Yeah, chef.
Throw the lot away.
Start again, yeah?
Throw that away--
It's going it
the garbage, chef.
--now, so that means
you won't use it.
You won't sneak it in.
No, not at all, chef.
Just throw it away
then, you little fucker.
Well, I was suffering
from kidney stones,
and the pain was getting
more and more intense.
And at that point, that's
when I started losing focus.
I say, Jeff,
what are you doing?
Come on, big boy,
get it together.
Stop what you're doing
and clean it up first.
We're not going to work
in that, big boy, yes?
I don't know.
In a selfish way, I just
wish he would have just
come through a little bit more.
But I just didn't have
time to feel sorry for him.
NARRATOR: Hell's Kitchen
seats people,
and each kitchen serves .
It's an hour and a half
into dinner service.
And though the red team
started off strong,
Jeff's problems at
the vegetable station
have slowed them
down dramatically.
They have only
served four entrees.
Meanwhile, the blue
kitchen has caught up,
and has served
of their entrees.
But the heat may
be taking its toll.
In case anybody's wondering,
it's about degrees in here.
Damn, it's hot in here.
Yeah, on you're
right, Michael.
And right now I don't need
a big drama queen on my hands,
you know that?
Yeah, of course it's hot.
That's my idea.
You know that.
Had you not lost a challenge,
it would have been fine.
But right now, just look at
that board there, Michael.
MICHAEL: Yes, chef.
Yeah, OK, that's
not funny, is it?
Chef in the kitchen, he's
the king of the kitchen.
It's a monarchy.
If we say anything except for
yes, chef, we're done for.
I feel helpless.
NARRATOR: In an effort to
jumpstart the red kitchen,
its most experienced chef Chris
has jumped in to help Elsie.
Just do the tongs
and then that.
So it's like an X, OK?
ELSIE: OK.
Leave it for a minute
and a half, two minutes,
just so it gets some nice lines.
Same thing on the
other side, OK?
One, two.
OK.
Can I get those tongs?
NARRATOR: While Chris and Elsie
are demonstrating the teamwork
the chef wants to see--
Where are my f*cking tongs?
--in the blue
kitchen, there's a power
struggle in the meat section.
Let's take this out.
No, it has to cook.
He wants medium rare.
I don't want to
overcook this one.
I've got it covered.
Don't worry.
Where's the
Wellington, please?
It's right here, chef.
Let's go.
Oh, no, no, no, no.
I'm going to need
better than that.
Come here, you.
That was me, chef.
Well, I'm going to
need better than that.
I have another
couple in the oven.
Yeah, and for goodness sake
for the first time, tell me,
do you really want
me to serve that?
[inaudible], chef.
Move, stop the table.
I wish you'd listen to me.
I know, but I just
want to get it right.
I'm trying to tell you how
to get it right, Mary Ellen.
Don't argue.
Yell at me later, OK?
And every single time, she's
pulling the meat every time
saying it's not ready.
It's rare.
And she goes, oh, we'll
talk about it later.
And you know what?
At the rate I was going, I
wasn't going to have a later.
NARRATOR: Clearly,
the meat section
is the weak link in
the blue kitchen,
while in the red
kitchen, dewberry
has just delivered lamb and
beef Wellington to Chef Ramsay.
Dewberry?
Yes, chef.
Come here.
You've cooked the
lamb beautiful.
Yeah, chef.
What about the Wellington?
- That's almost well done.
- Yeah, that's right.
I want it pink.
Yeah, let's go.
Quickly, let's go.
And beware, Dewberry,
all these tickets are
people waiting for food, yes?
- Yes, chef.
Yes
Let's go, red team,
we're halfway there.
Dewberry, back on
your station now.
Stop running away.
Oh, f*cking hell.
God, almighty.
Come on, Dewberry.
What are you trying to do?
I'm confused.
I don't know what I'm doing.
The only thing I mastered
was cooking spaghetti.
Thank god I could do one thing.
Can you get back
on your section?
Yes, chef.
NARRATOR: Over two hours into
meal service, and only eight
main courses have come
out of the red kitchen.
Their customers are
growing impatient.
- Hi, how are you?
- Great.
Thank you.
We've been sitting here.
And it's the red kitchen, chef.
You're waiting on a
Wellington and one bass, yes?
I'm deeply, deeply,
deeply sorry.
But right now, we're
about seven tables behind.
That doesn't do much for me.
Yeah, right.
Can I just say you do
f*ck all for me either.
Sorry?
You do nothing for me either.
I just don't understand why
it's so difficult to serve
some people their food.
Are you that arrogant?
You haven't got a clue
what's going on behind me?
It seems like you have a
lot of amateur sous chefs.
Right, finally your heads
coming outside your assh*le.
Now sit down you f*cking d*ck.
What an assh*le.
NARRATOR: Nothing upsets
Chef Ramsay more than when
customers come to the kitchen.
Away now, two cod,
two Wellington.
Two cod, two Wellington.
Away now, two
cod, two Wellington.
Yes, chef.
How long?
minutes.
minutes.
Surely you're
Wellington's rested.
I have no idea, best answer.
What?
I have no idea.
I am so confused.
Oh, my god.
You don't care, do you?
At this point, no I don't.
- You don't care?
- No.
You aren't
interested, are you?
No.
No, you can't cut it?
No, I can't.
You're useless, you know that?
I am.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
That's it?
What are you doing?
Come on.
When I got ready to
leave, and I looked across,
and saw Elsie, and saw
the look on her face,
I couldn't walk out.
I couldn't.
I'm confused, I don't
know why I'm doing.
Thank you for coming back.
You never-- hello--
desert your section again.
Do you understand?
- Yes, chef.
You stand there like
a man, and you face it,
because I'm standing here
in front of customers
taking shit because of you.
Yes, chef.
Get on your section and
get those Wellingtons out.
Yes, chef.
He was trying to
get me to understand
where the shortcomings were
and about staying with a team.
And he was trying to get me to
be better than I am, evidently.
All right, all right, don't
worry about it, Dewberry.
Don't worry about it.
He hasn't cooked
anything standing there.
And now he wants to
run back to his mommy.
Sorry.
Unfortunately,
Dewberry's meltdown
has caused the red kitchen
to come to a screeching halt.
And now the customers
want some answers.
Excuse me, we've been
waiting for food for about
two hours and minutes now.
Wellington.
And we were
curious about that.
Yeah, well, you're a
clever girl, aren't you?
It's a new restaurant.
Yeah, it's been a tough night.
But two hours and minutes?
Yes, anything else?
So why don't you f*ck off.
Asparagus please?
How nice.
He tells us to f*ck off.
Ridiculous.
Come here, you.
You can't run from the heat.
I know.
Did you hear the plea, the
cry of support from the team?
- Yeah, chef.
- It's the same for me as well.
Do you think it's any
easier over there?
No, chef, it's worse.
And what about the idiots
coming to the hot plate
asking for food?
It's worse for them too.
The chef said to f*ck off.
Apology is the
last thing he said.
- Ridiculous.
- Well, what's his problem?
He's the one
screwing up the food.
Can I have a
Wellington, please?
Right here.
NARRATOR: In the blue
kitchen, despite her problems
with Andrew, Mary Ellen
has been able to get
half of their main courses out.
Very nice, Mary Ellen.
Go, please, table , yes?
Gently, let's go.
NARRATOR: But Andrew is
playing the politician.
Where's the other garnish?
I ended up taking
over a lot more
control of trying to
gauge the temperatures,
which she just wasn't--
she wasn't able to do.
That's not what I saw.
He's the guy that would
just sell you down the river
to make himself look better.
Do you want me to do that?
No, continue talking
trash about me.
I like it.
I'm not talking
trash about you.
NARRATOR: Three
hours into service,
patrons from both red and blue
tables start to walk out unfed.
It appears the second dinner
service in Hell's Kitchen
is yet again another disaster.
And some customers have taken
matters into their own hands.
I'm sorry.
You can't.
- What?
Don't tell me I can't.
No, seriously.
You can't.
By law, by law--
Did you bring us our entree?
Let me ask you.
Look at the food.
I wish your education could be
as good as your voice, yeah?
Oh, did he really
just say that?
Yes, sir?
I have a doctorate in
music from the University
of Southern California.
Do you have a doctorate?
I do have an education.
Do you have a doctorate?
I do have an education.
Then you are less
educated than me.
So don't get in my face, buddy
about what kind of education
that you have.
Right now, right
now, right now.
Sir, you're out of here.
Let's leave, please, now.
Fine.
After a pizza was delivered
and his maitre d' was insulted,
chef Ramsay has seen enough.
Red team, shut the
place down and clean down.
Yes, chef.
Last table, shut it down.
Everything off.
Yes, stove's off.
Turn it off.
Whatever.
NARRATOR: With disappointment
in both kitchens,
Chef Ramsay must now
decide the losing team.
Oh, dear.
That was tough.
That was bloody tough.
Blue team, your diners said your
cold starters were horrible.
But you did get
main courses out.
But don't get too excited.
You know they weren't that good.
Red team, three-quarters
of your diners
really enjoyed the appetizers,
but nearly half your diners
didn't receive
their main course.
In fact-- and this is
a real first for me--
one of your tables
was so frustrated,
they phoned for a f*cking pizza.
And guess what?
They ate it.
And the main course
still hadn't come out.
That is one not to forget.
And losing team tonight
is the red team.
Chris, I've been squeezing your
balls for the last three days
because every time
you opened your mouth,
you sounded like a right w*nk*r.
But tonight, you
turned it around.
Thank you, chef.
Just do a tongs and then that.
Let's go, red team,
we're halfway there.
You were the least
bad in your red team.
Thanks, chef.
I want you to nominate two
of your team for elimination.
Yes, chef.
And I'll decide
which one of those two
will be leaving Hells Kitchen.
I was doing fine up until the
pain started getting intense
and I started losing my focus.
Oh, for God's sake.
I was looking at the tickets.
They were standing there.
I had two Wellingtons.
I had that stuff going.
That wasn't my problem.
I had a rough last few
days and last few nights.
And I am worried
about my position
because, again, I
wasn't up to par.
He knows it's even the
second straight day in a row.
It sucks.
I want to be the guy to stay.
But you know, it doesn't--
Well, I appreciate that.
I appreciate that.
It's been a god
damn good pleasure.
I appreciate that.
And none of the
decisions are personal.
No, absolutely not.
So how are you feeling?
I shouldn't have
let my emotions
run everything like they did.
And this has been the
worst night of my life,
and I've lived for years.
And this was the single
worst night I've had ever.
I don't know what's
going to happen.
If I don't get cut, I have to
work and get the respect back
to my team if I ever could.
And I don't know
that that's possible.
This point, it's
still about the team.
And it's going to
be a tough choice.
But in the long run, I
want to win a restaurant.
And I'm not going to do that
if my team continues to lose.
So that's the bottom line.
If they're dragging me down,
then you're getting cut off.
NARRATOR: One of
these people will
win their very own restaurant.
But tonight, for one
member of the red team,
that opportunity will be gone.
Chris?
Yeah, chef?
First person you nominated
for elimination and why.
I'm going to have
to say Dewberry.
The fact that he let himself
get so upset about things
is going to hurt the
team in the long run.
Second nominee?
Jeff.
He lets his own
head get in the way
and is going hurt the
team in the long run.
You two, step forward.
Chris?
- Yeah, chef.
That's the right choice.
I agree with that %.
You two so deserve to be here.
Dewberry?
Yeah, chef?
Why should you stay?
I think that I definitely
had some decent work
that went out tonight.
But the fact that I let
everything get under my skin
was inexcusable.
And the only thing I can
say is I can promise you
it would never
happen again as long
as I were in Hell's Kitchen.
Jeff?
Chef, I feel I'm
the team player.
I put the team before myself.
This entire day, the last
two days, the dedication
is there, and the heart,
and the commitment is there.
But you're a shit cook.
You really are shit.
So what a big decision to make.
That's nice.
That's very nice.
Well done.
You're useless, you know that?
- I am.
Goodbye.
You're mixing away
like a f*cking donkey.
Jeff, what are you doing?
Dewberry, you're going tonight
for one very simple reason.
You're a coward, and you
turned your back on your team
after you screwed them.
Give me your jacket, and
get out of Hell's Kitchen.
Well, what happened happened.
I can't say that I
didn't deserve it.
I felt like I was
making a comeback,
but I was not justified
in walking out on my team.
And if you want your
own restaurant, is desire
I want to see.
He told me I was a crap cook.
And it was embarrassing.
I'll never be on the
chopping block again.
I'm waiting for it to get
a little more cut throat
and backstabbing,
which I think is
an inevitable course of action.
Once I get comfortable
in the kitchen,
there's absolutely
no stopping me.
GORDON RAMSAY: I'm
looking for someone
who can weather the storm,
inspire individuals,
stand as a great leader.
That clearly is not Dewberry.
