Lovely finally met the end of her rope in Hell’s Kitchen Season 6 Episode 4.
The challenge is to come up with an appetizer and two entrees to serve to the wife of a soldier who just got home from Iraq. Robert and Suzanne must learn the likes and dislikes of the staff sergeant and pass that information along to their teams. Robert has a collaborative style of leadership, while Suzanne dictates to her team (except she doesn’t dictate anything useful). With 5 minutes left, she asks her team how they feel about the menu. A little late for that.
Women: Caesar style salad with baked prawns
Men: Spicy seafood style bouillabaisse
Both are good, but the women get the point.
Women: Bacon wrapped filet with grilled shrimp
Men: Four cheese maccaroni, stewed collards, and buttermilk fried catfish
Both good again, but the men win this point hands down.
Women: Broiled lobster tail with pasta
Men: Bone in New York strip with mashed potatoes and grilled lobster tail (grilled was the key that they heard during their meeting, or at least Robert heard)
Again complimentary to both, but the men score the point and win the challenge.
The men will be fighter pilots for the day. For their punishment, the women will be redecorating the dining room ahead of the special event, the surprise return party.
The women never heard the words soul food, which Tennille could have done and offered to do.
Because they won the challenge, the blue team’s menu will be featured. That means they will need to teach the women how to cook the dishes. If they want to anyway.
Sabrina’s holding up her team. Ramsay’s waiting for her mushrooms, and when he gets the dish, it’s stone cold. As the women finally start to get their appetizers out, the men have already finished theirs.
It’s apparently steak night. Good luck keeping up, Jim. What does he need anyway? Kevin, tell him quick while the chef isn’t looking.
In the red kitchen, Sabrina and Tek have finally completed their appetizers. Then Tek moves to meat, which is blue. She blames the amount of people who are working on the station. After some more time, her steaks are well done. Really well done.
The men are concerned about Dave, the one handed man. He wants them to back off unless he gives them a reason to worry.
Tek is working on the first entrees. Still.
Dave thinks that Ramsay is picking on Jim, but it’s unwarranted. Jim blames Kevin’s mouth for this lack of credit he’s receiving.
The blue team has finished sending out their final entrees. As for the women? Still working on getting something out. Seeing Tek in a panic, Amanda delivers raw lobster in an effort to just deliver something.
Since it’s been an hour and a half with no entrees delivered, the men will have to bail out the women. This isn’t just a loss. It’s insulting.
Sabrina wants to target Tennille, who didn’t do anything wrong.
The first nominee is Tek, for obvious reasons. The second nominee is Tennille. The reason Tennille gives: it’s a load of some word that’s bleeped out. If it were up to Tennille, Amanda would be the other nominee. Ramsay is okay with letting Amanda be the third nominee.
Tennille can get back in line. Although Ramsay doesn’t see anything left in Amanda, Tek is leaving Hell’s Kitchen.
