[Krupa has accidentally dropped her prime rib while serving tableside; returns to the pass with James]
Chef Ramsay, I just fell with the whole rib in my hands so--
Oh, fuck's sake. The whole fucking thing?
The whole fucking thing. I'm sorry.
Oh, you're kidding me. Oh, come on. One simple task. (calls Monterray) Monterray.
Monterray, once you've finished the rib, serve the ribs to Krupa. (to Krupa) Hey, Butterfingers. When he's finished serving the ribs from the blue team, take the trolley. Do not drop it!
MMonterray
Oh, Jesus Christ! Sea bass is fucking falling apart.
MMonterray
Sea bass fell apart.
(Gives Monterray on a lesson) When you take the fish out of the pan, you leave it on the spatula.
MMonterray
It fell apart. There's nothing I can do. It fell apart.
You leave it on the fucking spatula! Is that what you did?
No, you didn't. So it's the fish's fault again?
MMonterray
No, it's not. It fell apart. There's nothing I can do. It fell apart.
There IS something you can do, because you should be fucking responsible enough to CARE! YOU'RE GONNA FUCKIN' LIE TO MY FACE AND TELL ME THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO!

MMonterray
(interview) I understand what he's telling me and I'm listening to him, but you ain't going to keep fucking cussing at me. I don't give a fuck who you are: Chef Ramsay, Chef Scott, Chef Andi. You ain't going to keep talking to me like that!
So don't sit here and BULLSHIT me and tell me that there's nothing you can do!
MMonterray
I'm not bullshitting you. I put it on- I have it. I'm putting it on there-
You've given up! Get- BULLSHIT! SHUT UP!
And Monterray has decided to go toe-to-toe with Sous Chef Scott.
All you have to do is bring it up, and it won't break!
MMonterray
I understand. I understand.
DO YOU?! Then FUCKIN' DO IT!
MMonterray
Then it's done then.
MMonterray
Well fuck you too then! [throws pan into the sink] You fucking serious, dawg?
(interview) When you fucking got too much pride and you wanna stand there and fucking cuss at Chef Scott, that's the motherfucker that needs to go home.
MMonterray
Pass me some goose necks, please.
(interview) Yeah, just shut him down and send his ass home right now. That's a done deal.
[The Blue Team nominated Chino and Monterray, while the Red Team nominated Carrie and Elise]
I have stepped up my game every service, every challenge, I've gotten better. If you asked my team who they'd rather see leave between me and Carrie, I'm sure the answer would be Carrie.
Elizabeth, if you had to drop Elise or Carrie, who would you drop?
Krupa, who would you drop?
Jennifer, who would you drop?
Natalie [transferred to blue team since previous episode], you were in the Red Team. Who would you send home: Elise or Carrie?
No hesitation there. Elise, I did what you asked! I took a vote! Here's the sad news for you: your team wants you out of there so badly, you may be better off.
I can guarantee one thing: I never make same mistake twice. This is my first time on the carpet, (Carrie) this is her second, (Monterray) his second, and (Chino) his third. It is not my time to go yet, chef. I'm not here to throw anybody under the bus.
MMonterray
It's too late! [laughs]
I'm keeping it 100% with you, chef. I can work on my attitude, but you can't give somebody common sense and talent, [points at Carrie] especially when you're 31. I'm 26. I have so much to learn and so much more to give.
Are you done? [pause] Okay. Time for a difficult decision. My decision is... Elise. [everyone on the Red Team smiles as Elise tearfully walks up to Gordon] Stop crying and get back in line.
[Jamie and Jennifer facepalm while Krupa shakes her head]
Two cod, one lobster, one wellington!
MMonterray
(to Tommy) Three and half minutes, yes? On the two cod? The wellington? [Tommy doesn't respond]
Tommy, how long on the cod? You're driving!
(interview) Tommy doesn't talk. He shuts down, he gets real quiet! And then he doesn't talk to Chef, and that's a sign of disrespect to Chef, so Chef gets even madder at him! (to Tommy) Tommy, how long?!
Tommy, you're keeping us all fucking waiting now!
I'm just going, chef. It's coming, I promise.
Yeah, then give me a fucking time!
MMonterray
Two minutes, yes?
I gotta redo that cod. (to Will) Can't put that out, right?
(to Monterray) Yeah, push it back. Five on that cod, guys. Five on that two cod. (interview) I'm being a leader for myself in Hell's Kitchen right now. I'm making sure things leaving my hands are perfect, and that's how I'll be noted.
Monterray! Hey, bozo! How can you keep on reheating your meat before it's overcooked?!
MMonterray
It's not, chef!
You don't know how to fucking do it!
MMonterray
It won't be, chef! It won't be!
Cod, sea bass, wellington, (New York) strip! I HOPE IT'S WORKING!
These are up for the cod. Can we plate this?
(to Monterray) Wellington!
MMonterray
[cuts into the wellington] Oh, my fucking God! [both halves of the wellington are raw in the center] Will, take a look at this. I don't think that's gonna pass.
If you don't think that's right, you need to let them know now.
MMonterray
Guys, I don't think it's right! Pull back!
Oh, fuck off! [slams spoon on workstation] Fuck off! (to Monterray) Come here, you!
MMonterray
That was me, chef.
I sent you four minutes ago! How can you continue cooking a wellington?!
MMonterray
I had two, chef. One was over and I still had one to send with the others, chef. And the other one was overcooked as well.
So they're both overcooked? [points at Tommy] You! Come here, you!
Last table was the cod, overcooked. Now it's the wellington. Let me communicate to both of you! FUCK OFF OUT OF HERE!! Get out of here, both of you! PISS OFF! Get upstairs and fucking sit and high-five each other! GET OUT, TOMMY!
While Carrie starts from square one on her rice, Chef Ramsay...
[asks for snapper] Snapper, please.
Yes chef, I'm pushing it right now.
[Gordon checks on snapper brought up by Paul]
It's fucking raw. [returns to the workstation] All of you! [angrily throws his spoon away] I'm- I'm struggling! The fish is fucking RAW! [knocks the workstation] IT'S THE SECOND TIME! And it's the committee's table! You can't do that to me!
(interview) Paul's crashing and burning on the fish station like a Titanic, you know? It's fucking going down.
[angrily slams his towel] Fuck!
Jonathon, Monterray! On the fish!
MMonterray
(interview) I'm like, "okay." (to Jonathon) Come on. Let's go, let's go.
MMonterray
Four to five minutes.
Jonathon! Monterray! Committee table, we've got to put it together!
Don't yell. You did do what you got.
MMonterray
No, no, no, no.
MMonterray
(interview) Chef Ramsay throws me on fish station, so I do what I can. And Jonathon's sittin' back and I'm like, "Dude! What the hell are you doing? Start fucking cooking for your team please! Like, what is wrong with you?"
What the fuck is Jonathon doing?
I'm trying to help chef. Trying to help.
MMonterray
(interview) Jonathon's sitting in the corner like some stray dog with his tail between his legs.
If anybody needs anything, just holler at me, okay?
MMonterray
(interview) So I guess I'm by myself, I have to step up and I'm like, more capable of doing this job.
MMonterray
[Brings the snapper to the pass] Right here, chef.
[Gordon checks the snapper; after finding out that it's raw, he has had it with the Blue team]
It's raw. All of you, come here.
MMonterray
What the fuck happened?
Just touch that. [touches the top of snapper] Put your hand on top of there. Touch it. Touch it. [Tommy touches the snapper while Monterray walks away] Don't you dare- I am so pissed off! I can't take it anymore. I've had-I've had enough!
MMonterray
Sorry, chef. Sorry, chef.
He (Paul) screws me, you (Monterray) walk away.
Where's your respect? Get out! Fuck off!
[Blue Team leaves the kitchen]
Can a couple of us stay, chef, and try to do something?
