Hell's Kitchen

This season, the competition began

with a grand Hollywood welcome...

Welcome to Los Angeles.

For a group of chefs that proved to be

some of the most passionate...

Behind, behind, behind. Come on, come on, come on.

Three minutes! .

Driven...

There you go!

Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go!

And hungry...

I need to win this.

Delicious risotto. Thank you.

I'm not letting nothing stop me on my dream.

Ever to set foot in Hell's Kitchen.

Oh!

This drive pushed some chefs to greatness...

Duck! Yes!

Whoo!

Flavorful dish. Red team wins.

Congratulations.

We win again.

And others...

We need a medic! Medic, medic!

To the breaking point.

It's shooting pain.

I just lost everything in one shot.

Just two chefs remain in the competition.

In the blue kitchen, Bryant,

the 29-year-old lead line cook from Virginia beach, Virginia...

Bryant, it's cooked beautifully, that steak.

Thank you, Chef. Whoo!

Serious and deeply competitive...

I got this. You do that.

Bryant's passion has made for a journey

of intense highs when he hit the mark...

Creative, original.

The winning dish belongs to Bryant.

Yes!

Well done. Thank you!

And severe lows

when he didn't achieve perfection.

Stone cold in the middle.

Get out! Pathetic!

I've been working my ass off my whole life,

and it comes to this.

This intensity rubbed some of his teammates the wrong way...

I don't need to hear you. Mind your business.

you! Shut the up!

No! you, dude!

But ultimately helped secure Bryant

a spot in the finals.

I am gonna fight till the damn end.

The volcano is coming.

Yes.

His competition, cooking in the red kitchen, La Tasha,

the 33-year-old kitchen supervisor

from winter haven, Florida.

Keep pushing. Keep pushing, ladies.

Time to unleash the beast.

La Tasha started out at the bottom...

Seriously? You grilled me a slice of melon.

Damn it.

But made a steady climb to the top.

La Tasha, risotto... delicious.

Thank you, Chef.

The lamb... who cooked the lamb? I did, Chef.

Perfect. Whoo!

She turned in strong performances in challenges...

The dish has flavor.

The winning dish belongs to La Tasha.

I'm feeling good right now.

And was a consistent leader in dinner service.

Slice, run to the pan.

Lobster. Lobster.

Can I grab that for you? Yes, you can.

I'm walking these two, okay?

Her determination earned respect...

I've never been on the chopping block.

La Tasha is a star.

And gained her a spot in the finals.

Great job. Thank you, Chef.

Tonight...

The showdown we've been waiting for.

Doesn't get better than this.

Who will win Hell's Kitchen

and a quarter-of-a- million-dollar salary...

Yes.

I feel like a rock star right now.

As the next head Chef of Gordon Ramsay Pub & Grill

at Caesars Atlantic City?

This is really about my little daughter and my wife.

Mom and dad ain't raised no fool,

and I'm here to win this.

Find out right now...

One...

On the season finale...

Two...

Of Hell's Kitchen.

Three.

And now the conclusion of Hell's Kitchen.

The two of you will compete

for the chance of becoming my next head Chef.

Here we go.

I am so proud of you both.

Bryant, you can smile.

- I know. - Come on. Okay?

Start planning those exquisite menus.

- Chef. - Get out of here.

Yes. Okay.

Thank you, Chef. Whoo.

Whoo!

I'm in the finale!

Just me a you, girl. Here we go.

This is what I've worked so hard

my entire career for.

I can't believe it.

Ah! Oh, my god.

I am speechless.

Go ahead, do the honors, please.

"To celebrate, your private plane

will depart from Palm Springs in the morning!"

Yeah! Yeah!

A private plane, Palm Springs,

I'm starting to get used to all this.

Somebody pinch me.

Not you.

After taking a moment to celebrate,

the finalists get to work planning their menus

for the most important dinner service of their lives.

Down to business.

This menu is going to determine the rest of my life.

I'm thinking very simple. Let the food speak for itself.

I'm definitely pushing the envelope with this menu,

flavor combinations that I've never really paired

with each other.

After several hours of menu planning...

Definitely the menu of my life.

Bryant and La Tasha head back upstairs...

Lot to take in.

Where the gravity of the day's events...

I need a moment.

Finally sinks in.

Good-bye, grandma.

You with me every day. I miss you.

There's so many people that believe in me

and support me,

and I know that I can do this,

and I can't wait to showcase that

to Chef Ramsay and the world.

It ain't over yet.

I'm so blessed to be at this point right now.

I have given my heart and soul to make myself a better husband,

a better father,

working two and three jobs to support my family.

Now I am here.

You just got to win.

After an emotional night for both chefs...

Let's do this.

La Tasha and Bryant

are eager for their trip to Palm Springs,

and thanks to Chef Ramsay...

They're traveling in style.

Doesn't get better than this.

Here we go, B.

Hello. How are you?

Oh!

Marino, what are you doing in Palm Springs?

I offered to be your tour guide today.

Let's do it.

Are you afraid of heights?

- (Bryant) Yes. - Too late.
