[During the team communication challenge, Ashley and Frank present their cheeseburger sliders]
What I did was I got some pancetta and rendered it down to crispy, just for another texture, and to enhance the flavor of the burger. And a little bit of liquid smoke.
Yes, just... just a drop.
I didn’t ask you to get crazy. I just wanted you to cook what was on your back. Do the recipe.
(interview) Frank, I want to grab you by the neck and just shake you. The recipe is the recipe, and you can’t deviate from it.
(to Frank) Here’s the thing. Had you followed the recipe, that would’ve been a near perfect burger. Ashley, congratulations. Point to the Red team.
ANAshley Nickell
Thank you, chef.
(interview) She only won because I lost. That’s not a winner. That’s–that’s not a winner.
[holds the ticket] On order, four covers of table 32. Don't wait for me. Appetizers fire one special table, two side scallops, two risotto. Entrée two Arctic char, two wellington.
ANAshley Nickell
Yes chef.
Hey hey, ladies! That was flat.
Vanessa, call back the order!
We have special table side, we have two [looks clueless] fuck. [rings a buzzer]
I called this out ten seconds ago. Entrées what were they, Vanessa?
They were one, well-- fuck [looks confused and clueless once again] (begins attempted interview and looks still confused)
I am so sorry did not hear that.
Listen, concentrate, get your head down.
AJAshley and Jackie
Yes chef.
Meanwhile, back in the red kitchen...
Garnish walking, girls! [walks Wellingtons to the pass]
Chef Ramsay is looking for Jackie to deliver...
Arctic char! Arctic char! [holds a pan of perfectly cooked risotto]
...and finally complete the second order of entrées.
(Arctic) char. (sends it to the pass)
(returns the char and sauce to workstation) Hey! Hey, all of you, come here. Just touch that. Dannie, just touch that. COME ON! COME ON! QUICK! JUST TOUCH THAT!
Touch it! Touch... [heavily smashes the char] Fuck! Stone-cold! Jackie, we're stuck in neutral.
(interview) FUCK MY LIFE! Chef Ramsay is going to eliminate me right here.
Jackie, come here! Fucking useless!
For the last time, get it together!
Yes, chef. Now I got to refire this fucking shit!
(talking to the waiter) Go. Come back for the Arctic char, yes?
How long on this char, Jackie?
The rest of the table are eating their entrées.
MDMale diner
You guys can start. Start before it gets cold.
(interview) Fucking half the table's eating. So I got Chef Ramsay screaming, "Where's the char?"
(interview) Don't worry, I'm with it. I'm 'bout to 'bout it.
I cannot wait! It's not good enough!
[Gordon holds the char and sauce, returns to workstation for the second time, and he has had it]
Hey, all of you! All of you, come here!
Come here! It's cold and raw! Uh, I-I'm done! [slams the char to a plate] I'm fucking done! I AM DONE! GET OUT! GET OUT!!! I TOLD YOU I WON'T TO PUT UP WITH ANOTHER SERVICE THIS BAD, GET OUT, VANESSA! GET TO THE DOOR! [throws Vanessa's apron on a table when she is on her anger]
(whispers) Damn it. [Jackie throws her apron on a table]
ANAshley Nickell
(interview) THIS SUCKS! Somebody needs to go home tonight. It's just completely unacceptable.
It's like we're hitting walls instead of jumping hurdles.
[During prep; Sous Chef Christina has the Red Team go over "The List" while she goes out]
Make a list of everything you don't need.
(interview) Every kitchen has a prep list. Normally we don’t title the list... we just know it’s the list.
Okay, this is the list. I'm gonna put "The Fucking List".
(interview) Jackie wrote "The F-ing List". Like... why would you write that?
[Christina sees Jackie's handwritten list at the workstation]
(to Kristin) "The Fucking List?"
The fuck– I didn't write that. So respectful, right? (interview) What are you thinking, Jackie? Disrespect like that does not fly anywhere.
(to Jackie) Is this you? It's disrespectful, is what it is. NEVER AGAIN I SWEAR TO GOD!!! If any--(Jackie starts to say something; Christina then points on her) SHUT UP!!!
(interview) She did not think that was very funny.
[holds Jackie's list] If any of this happens in this kitchen again, the fucking list, whoever writes it will be finishing "The Fucking List"!
It wasn't disrespecting you.
You just interrupted me. Take a seat! (letting Jackie to sit on a chef's table) Have a seat and sit down. Just sit down! Never again! It’s a professional fucking kitchen! You would be FIRED if you-if you worked for me! You want to have a (notices Jackie shrugging)—OH, YOU DON'T CARE?
(pointing her finger to Jackie again) This is your teammate. Find the cancer in your team and work around it!
ANAshley Nickell
(interview) Jackie brought our whole morale down. She has to go. I'm-I'm done with her.
[letting the red team out of the kitchen] Go have lunch.
(interview) I'm the type of person where I can joke, joke, joke, and then boom, jump on a desert and get the shit done. But these morons don't see that.
Let’s jump to the chef's table, please! Two tuna, one wellington!
Meese, how long for the wellie garnish?
Just give me a time, Meese! (interview) It is very hard to run the garnish station when you do not communicate! [to Meese] Garnish, talk to me! [to Gordon] Walking with wellington.
(Arctic) char is in, right? Walking with tuna!
What is she (Meese) doing?!
The wellington garnish is up, isn’t it?
ANAshley Nickell
(interview) Bitch, keep control of your station! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!
[Meese backs the pan away from Ashley, who tries to put spinach in the pan]
ANAshley Nickell
What are you doing? What are you doing?!
ANAshley Nickell
God, I’m trying to help you!
I don’t want my guests eating on an installment plan!
[laughing] He did not just say that!
The wellington garnish is up and--
ANAshley Nickell
(interview; regarding Meese) Bitch, get control of your station. (to Meese) What are you doing? (putting spinach on Messe's pan) What are you doing? What are you doing?
ANAshley Nickell
God, I'm trying to help you.
I don't want my guests eating on an installment plan?
[Screenshot of Kris Jenner and her friends laughing when they are waited for food]
Did he say "an installment plan"? He did not just say that.
(to Meese) Where's the mash (potatoes)?
You can leave them in the pot. We talked about this. Leave them in the pot.
Who put that on a tray like that?
Hey, hey, hey, hey! (to Kris Jenner) Kris, I'm so sorry. Hey! All of you come here! COME HERE! GET IN! [summons the entire team into the pantry] I'M DONE!
We have a chef table in there tonight. Sat a meter away and look how I got the mash. It dumped on the fucking tray! I've been INSIDE PRISON and they give food better THAN THIS SHIT! [throws the plate down on the floor, causing it to shatter]
[Gordon opens the door and ushers the Red Team back into the kitchen without another word]
(interview; screams) AHHH!!! We suck. Like, we can’t do this!
(goes to the Blue kitchen) Hey! Hey, Blue team!
(to Eddie and Alan) You two, on desserts. The rest of you, jump into the Red Team and help them finish! Now!
Who’s on fish? I’ll hop on fish!
That’s already reduced in there. Right here.
I can’t believe this is fucking happening.
It’s fucking burnt, throw it out.
(interview) These boys just bomb-rushed our kitchen, kamikaze style. Like, fucking... [imitates bomb falling and going off]
As soon as those two tunas are ready, we’ll go to the pass!
ANAshley Nickell
Why are you screaming?!
I’m not screaming! THIS IS HOW I TALK!
ANAshley Nickell
(interview; impersonates Hassan yelling at her) "You guys need to listen to me, ‘cause I’m Hassan, and I'm big, and I blah-blah-blah!" Shut up!
Tuna going to the window!
[to Sous Chef Christina] On your left, two fish.
First ticket out, team! Loving the teamwork, guys!
With a very vocal Hassan leading the charge, the men have taken over the red kitchen...
[to Kris Jenner] And I have your tuna.
...delivering entrées to the chef’s table and grateful customers in the dining room.
Last table now! Two Arctic char, four wellington!
Both teams: Yes, chef!
She’s (Jackie) got the wellies right behind you.
Alright, guys, let’s clear it down.
[to Red team] Please thank the gentlemen for finishing your service two nights in a row!
[The Red Team starts walking upstairs to the dorms]
Fucking pathetic-ass shit. Bullshit ass team. Worst team ever.
Over in the red kitchen...
Coming to the pass in 15 seconds, chef.
Hassan and Dannie hope the the third time's charm with their refired New York Strip and Tuna.
Coming out the pass, one New York (Strip).
ANAshley Nickell
(interview) There's no option to fail we can not fuck this up. If we do, another one of us is going home.
Fucking steak's raw. Hey, hey, Red Team! RED TEAM!
HJHassan and Jackie
Yes, chef?
It is contagious. There's just mistake, after mistake, after mistake! DO ME A BIG FAVOR, ALL TOGETHER, FUCK OFF! GET OUT! GET OUT!
(interview) Kevin's gone. Tonight's dinner service was a complete disaster, the front of the train went off and the back just followed. (in the dorm) It was... just nipping in the but. Joe, biggest fuck-up of the night.
(looks at the salmon in the middle) Holy shit. Who cooked the salmon?
It's raw. How does that happen?
(interview) Oh My God, Amanda. Salmon, it is, the most ordered, piece of fish, in the world.
How long for the refire? Manda
ANAshley Nickell
That skin looks buuurnt. He is not going be happy.
I'm GETTING FUCKING PISSED! (Interview) You just give me a few minutes and back up off of me, I can get this done.
That's raw. Where's the salmon?
ANAshley Nickell
Skin is burnt.
Fuck. Come here. (To Red Team) Hey.
JSJordin Sparks
Oh, no. Oh, no!
Hey. Look at where we are. All Stars? Let's get one thing right. No stars! All of you, get out! (Kicks the red team out)
