18 Chefs Compete
March 27
Last time, the 19 chefs remaining triked their way through the challenge. The men earned a trip to San Francisco, but they must have left their hearts there, because as soon as they got back, they AND the Red Team pulled off only a FRACTION of what they were capable of, resulting in yet another double dinner disaster. Nicole, having run out of get-up-and-go, was invited to get up and go. Now 18 remain.

Another day ends in the dorms, and while the chefs dream of what nightmares befall them next, in comes breakfast... not cooked, and very fresh. Did someone say bacon?

(sound of pigs squealing)

CHALLENGE #3: Potato

Each team has to dig up 100 pounds of potatoes in a bin of farm animals.

WINNERS: BLUE TEAM. That's the good news. The bad news... that means nothing.

The REAL challenge is to create an innovative potato dish. Then rank them from worst to best for Ramsay to taste. He'll rate them on a scale of 1 to 5. Most points wins.

Jessica: Sweet Potato Succotash - 4
Richard: Irish Colcannon - 4

Sandra: Pancetta Sofrito - 3
Ralph: Potato Salad - 3

Jason: Potato Gratin - 4
Bev: Potato Hash - 2
MEN lead, 11-9

Melanie: Gnocchi - 4
Mike: Boulangerie - 1
WOMEN lead, 13-12

Scott: Potato Souffle - 4
Joy: Pierogi - 5
WOMEN WIN, 18-16

As a prize, the women are going to have a private dinner on a yacht, while the men have to clean up after all the livestock used in today's goings-on. And let me tell you... it's a very crappy punishment.

Everyone regroups for the night's prep and service. During the prep, DeMarco sliced open his hand and is sent to the ER for stitches, but he will return in time for tonight's service. Meanwhile, both Simone and Rochelle start to feel sick, but the Red Team suspects that one, or perhaps both, are faking.

No time for that now, we've got a hangry crowd outside. Service 3... and let's get it RIGHT this time!

"Jean Philippe... Open Hell's Kitchen, please."

DINNER SERVICE #3

In addition to the classic HK menu, there will be a special Steak Diane appetizer served tableside by Kashia & Ralph.

The app stations in both kitchens start cranking out plates at a fevered pace, giving us a little hope that something other than frustration is going to be the result of tonight's service. That hope is quickly dashed as Jessica & Simone cannot get their act together on fish, causing both of them to be ejected. Meanwhile, in the Blue Kitchen, the same problem on the same station can be seen with Chris and Mike not being able to serve proper fish dishes.

DeMarco returns halfway through service and gets on his station, but you wouldn't notice, because no one is speaking to him as to what to do and where to go.

Altogether, dishes are ill-timed, nothing comes out at once, and, perhaps owing to once-bitten-twice-shy, DeMarco can't slice an order of chicken to save his life. This sends Ramsay on edge and sends the men back to the dorms. He heads to the women to see if they can save dinner service, but one more raw fish from Bev's section proves to be the straw that broke the Scotsman's back. Calling tonight's service THE MOST EMBARRASSING. PERIOD. SERVICE. PERIOD. EVER. PERIOD. He asks each team to nominate THREE. 

ELIMINATION #2

Sandra nominates Simone, Rochelle, and herself. After another raucous almost breaks out, Jason sends forward Mike, DeMarco, and Chris.

Ramsay then asks Simone, DeMarco, and Mike forward... and asks for ALL THREE JACKETS. Remember he said that the eliminations were going to come fast and furious if service did not improve.

... Well not so fast, because Ramsay then gives each person 10 seconds to state their case.

"My decision is..."

Then Simone stops him. "It's okay, Chef. I can go."

And so she does.

"Hell's Kitchen is about making someone's wish come true. Simone wished to leave Hell's Kitchen. That was an easy one. Wish granted."
