Gordon, Jennifer Normant and others in “Episode Three”

Jennifer, step forward, please.

Shit!

My next choice is... Carrie, step forward. (thinks on a third nominee) Do you know what? Amanda, join them.

Carrie, tell me why you think you should stay in Hell's Kitchen.

I love cooking. It is my passion, it's in my heart. I'm not ready to go yet, Chef. I want to prove you I am good enough.

Why is your team so desperate to see you out of here?

I don't know what Elise has against me. She's had something against me since day one. I'm not quite sure what it is.

It's not just Elise, Carrie.

Amanda.

Yes, chef.

Why do you think you should stay in Hell's Kitchen?

Well, Chef, unlike Carrie, I am not in denial that I had a fucking crap performance tonight in the kitchen.

Yeah.

Not in denial at all. I want this, Chef. I'm not going to fuck around and lie to you and say like, "Oh, you know, save me. You know, feel bad for me. I'm good." I can pr-I can fucking work my ass off for you, Chef. I can do better. You've seen me do better.

You didn't fight back!

Yes, Chef.

You threw the towel in!

I know, Chef.
