Narrator, Nilka and others in “Episode Ten”

Dinner service has been completed with time to spare and the diners are off to the theater. (cuts to Nilka packing her bags) But they aren't the only ones exiting Hell's Kitchen in a hurry.

(interview) You know it hurts to get kicked out of here like this, it really really does. I don't want to go home. I don't want to go home. I don't... I came here for a reason. [sheds a tear]

I was hoping I'd get to see you again.

Listen, I just want to say that you walk out of here with your head up high. Sadly, you're not ready to take that head chef's job. But what you are ready to continue doing is following your dream. Don't stop that.

I'm not, I'm just so mad at myself because I think I was ready. But tonight proved otherwise.

Listen, you have done phenomenally well. I've never come out here to say goodbye, but I wanted to make the effort to say goodbye and to say thank you.

(tearfully) Thank you.

Come here. [they both hug each other] Thank you. Yes. [opens the passenger side door of the taxi] Now, one more thing.

Yes, chef?

Your jacket.

No, you don't have to.

[laughing] Your jacket.

[laughing] I don't want to. [hands over her chef's jacket] Thank you, chef.

Good night, my love.

Good night.

Well done. (as the taxi starts up) Head up high.

I will. Always.
