Hell's Kitchen

Previously on "Hell's Kitchen"...

- Who's it gonna be? - Me, Chef.

Ryan volunteered to join the Blue Team.

It would be awesome if I can get them

through a dinner service.

That's gonna make me look even better.

- Let's go. - In the slider challenge...

- Go ahead, Matt! - The chefs slid for ingredients.

- Onion. - Parmesan.

- Truffle. - Oh.

My three-year-old son

would love this bouncy ball thing that's going on right now.

The judges were not impressed

with Matt's shrimp roll with chipotle aioli.

Your greens are kind of wilted and over-dressed.

I agree. A little too much heat for me.

What the do they know?

That's why they're running burger joints.

But Heidi's cilantro chicken burger

really wowed the judges.

I love it. The little heat there at the end.

Thank you.

And Ryan's spicy lamb slider

impressed and tied it up for the Blue Team.

The cucumber is really smart.

To break the tie,

the winning team was determined by the judges

deciding which chef had the best slider.

- Heidi, well done. - Yes! Yes!

- Good job. good job, good job. - Thank you.

I won it!

It was my burger!

At dinner service...

Lobster.

Matt's struggles

on the fish station...

Matt. VIP.

Curly-whirly over... Hey, come here, you.

Combined with his poor attitude...

My patience is running out.

Okay, Chef. Okay.

Turned the whole Red Team into a bickering mess.

If you guys are on apps,

why the hell are you not bouncing around helping me out?

So, you're blaming me

'cause your lobster was overcooked?

Hey! Shut up!

Another major problem was Kim's meltdown on garnish.

There's no stock in there.

- It's just dry. - I'm sorry.

Get out!

In the Blue Kitchen...

Does anybody else feel this is slow?

Yes, Chef.

Shaina's lack of urgency and

lack of quality on garnish...

Come on, come on.

Put her team in the weeds.

It's like monkey .

But it was Wendy's overcooked New York strip...

Hey.

- What does that look like? - It's over.

It's like she put that steak on Tuesday.

That was the final straw

that sent the Blue Team...

- All of you get out! - All: Yes, Chef.

To join a bickering Red Team in the dorms.

Look, if you shut your

trap for one minute and just listen, Kim!

- You shut the up! - Hey!

At elimination, the Red Team nominated...

- Matt. - And...

Kim.

While the Blue Team selected...

- Wendy. - And...

Shaina.

And on the heels of major problems

in both kitchens, Chef Ramsay not only eliminated...

Shaina.

- But... - Matt.

As well to leave "Hell's Kitchen"

and say good-bye to their dream of becoming head chef

at Yardbird Southern Table & Bar

at The Venetian in Las Vegas.

And now, the continuation of "Hell's Kitchen"...

Now, get out of here.

All: Yes, Chef.

Man. Elimination was crazy tonight.

Are you kidding me?

The elite eight, and Kim's part of it?

I am completely shocked Kim is still here.

_

Yes.

_

They got rid of Matt.

Matty Ice, and all 'cause Kim is a piece of .

He's way better than that... Ugh.

I hate her. I-I'm...

I was praying for her to leave.

Actually, I'm glad she didn't, though.

Better for us.

Oh! Hurry up!

Scallops. Where are they?

Oh! Come on, guys, please!

Get out!

Hey, hey, hey. Come here, you. Come here!

It's just mistake after mistake after mistake!

Whoo!

It's just raw! Raw!

Pathetic.

Let's go. Quick.

- Oh, God. - Ladies.

- Oh, no. - What the ?

I can't do it if my life depended on it.

- Oh, my God. - Good morning.

- All: Good morning, Chef. - How are you feeling?

- Good, Chef. - Scared, Chef.

Well, I see you've noticed my friend Brett up there.

Here's his partner, Rachel.

Ooh. Hello.

I brought Brett and Rachel here to demonstrate something

that I expect all of you to be able to do.

Whoa.

- Oh, my God. - Beautiful.

Incredible. Thank you.

Now, obviously I don't expect you to do the same kind

of stunts that Brett and Rachel just performed,

but there is something that those two incredible artists

just did that I need all of you to do,

and that is trust.

So, for today's challenge,

we're gonna put your trust in each other to the test.

You will be working in pairs,

and each pair will have to recreate one

of my signature dishes,

but your responsibilities will be divided.

One member of the pair tastes it,

and one makes it.

You'll have to trust one another.

The pair that recreates my dish the closest

will win the challenge for their team.

- Jesus. - Got it?

- All: Yes, Chef. - Good.

"Taste it, now make it," is a "Hell's Kitchen" classic

but Chef Ramsay's got a twist,

so it just totally changes up the whole entire game.

Right. Pairs.

- Want to pair? - Sorry, Paulie?

- No, nothing. - Are you mumbling to Ryan now?

Almost like you were on a date?

- No. - What were you mumbling?

He was asking me to be his pair, Chef.

I was saying, "Do you want to pair or split?"

Oh, I see.

You're going out there first?

I always try to think.

I trust Ryan as a cook,

and Wendy can't cook,

and I'm just sick of Devin as a person in general.

Okay. Pairs.

You've got a minute to decide amongst yourselves.

- Pair or split? - Yeah, I mean, I think

I would rather... Wendy's got a really great palate.

I think she can pick out what everything's in there.

How do you feel, Devin? What would you rather do?

I'd rather be with Paulie.

Do you have a good palate or do you want to cook?

I'm good at everything, so it's just... at this point.

Okay, then. Heidi and I and you two.

- Yes. - Got it.

Red Team, who's tasting who's cooking? Pair number one?

Kimberly is tasting, I will be cooking.

Pair number two, Andrew?

I'm gonna be cooking. Heather's gonna be tasting.

Wow. Interesting.

Blue Team. Pair number one?

Paulie's tasting, I'm cooking, Chef.

Damn, I guess Paulie got dumped by Ryan.

Ryan, why didn't you go with Paulie?

The boys wanted to go together.

Love it.

I asked Ryan if she wanted to partner up and she said no.

So, I got stuck with the Devin.

Pair number two?

I will be tasting, Ryan will be cooking.

Okay. Listen carefully: Red Team, Blue Team.

You have 30 minutes to recreate my signature dish.

Your time starts now. Let's go.

Putting a new spin on a "Hell's Kitchen" classic,

today one chef will taste...

You'll have to look and I'll taste.

And then instruct their teammate on which ingredients

they need to execute the dish.

Take that meat down.

I feel great about this partnership

with Andrew and I. He's great at cooking.

I'm great at cooking. We got this in the bag.

- Veal. - Are you positive it's veal?

The chefs much trust one another and work together

to correctly identify as many of the ingredients as possible.
