“Episode Seven” quotes from Hell's Kitchen

Blue Team, I've got an amazing day. Do you like speed?

Meth or coke?[the contestants laugh]

Oh, my God! [Gordon slaps himself]

Only kidding! I'm only kidding!

[to Natalie] Switch spots with me, please. [he and Natalie do so]

You're going to make me stand next to him (Tommy)?

Elise!

Yes, chef.

Salad!

[runs to pass] Sorry to keep you waiting.

[checks salad before returning to workstation] Come here! All of you, come here! Hey, look. Look. [pours water out of salad bowl] That's the state of where we are now. [drops bowl]

(interview) I did tell her right before dinner service, I was like, "Elise, you need to drain that salad." [flashback of Carrie telling Elise to drain the salad] As always, she never listens.

(to Elise) Look at me. Why is it in the water?

I... I didn't touch the station. Carrie touched the station. It's in water, I'm gonna drain it.

It's supposed to be drained before we start, and I did ask you to do that.

I didn't—

(to Elise) What section are you on?!

I am on appetizers, chef!

Right, so who's responsible for draining the fucking salad?!

I am, chef! I'm sorry, chef, I'm draining it now!

As usual. It wasn't drained for me.

Wellington, New York!

I have the wellington and the New York ready. I'm cutting it right now. [gasps after seeing the center of the cut wellington] Oh, this one's gonna be overcooked. Shit!

Oh, my God. Holy fuck, this is not real. Everything's fucked! [looks at wellingtons on Krupa's station] Oh, come on. Red team, stop! Everything's overcooked!

(interview) Krupa was cooking all the meat wrong. She was a nightmare.

(to Krupa) What are you doing?!

I don't know, chef. (interview) I honestly don't know what happened. There's no reason. (sighs; to Gordon) I'm frazzled, chef. I'm sorry.

You're telling me? Krupa, do you wanna go home?

No, chef.

Let's go!

How long on the bass?

Three and a half minutes. (interview) I've never cooked sea bass here before, but it's just like any other piece of fish, and you know, I've already messed up once, you know. I don't plan on doing it again.

(to Jonathon) How long do you need?

Go ahead. I'm fixing to cut two wellingtons.

(brings the sea bass to the pass) Behind.

This wellington's overdone. Yep, here it is, baby. (interview) I'm almost to the point of panic. Tommy prepped my wellingtons like big balls of shit. What am I supposed to do? (in the kitchen) That's a little bitty motherfucker right there. Probably to get my ass handed to me on that one. Yep. (brings the wellington to pass) Here.

Oh, fuck me. (returns the sea bass and wellington to the workstation) All of you, come here!

[moans] (interview) Chef Ramsay's about to fucking kill my ass.

One, I don't know what the fuck that is. [grabs a wellington]

It's a little one, that's my fault, Chef. It won't happen again. It's a fucking little bit overcooked because of the size. I realize that. It won't happen again, I promise.

Just like that?... [throws a spoon on a workstation] (brief pause) (Natalie) And you? It's raw in the center. Raw. And you're a talented cook! (Natalie goes silent to give her response)

Chef, I've got some more wellingtons.

(calling Jonathon and Natalie out of the kitchen) You and you... fuck off! Get out!

For crying out, man, I'm so sick of this bullshit, man.

Hey, hold on. Take that shit with you.

I'm done. I'm quit.

JONATHON! COME HERE, YOU!

You can kiss my ass.

JONATHON! I'd respect you more if you told me BEFORE you brought it to me! (brief pause) A-anything to say?!

It won't happen again.

DON'T FUCKING DARE BRING ME THAT SHIT!

Yes, chef. Won't happen again.

Fuck off!
