In the totally pointless nomination ceremony, Sabrina and Andy were chosen by their teams for elimination in Hell’s Kitchen Season 6 Episode 6. Not content with these choices, Ramsay chose to eliminate Jim instead.
There’s a craps table. Each person will roll the dice once and choose an ingredient with one letter. They need to make sure the ingredients compliment each other.
Women: Rabbit (Suzanne), haricot vert (Amanda), potatoes (Tennille), garlic (Sabrina), hamhock (Ariel)
Men: Haddock (Andy), figs (Dave), angel hair pasta (Van), apples (Kevin), tomatoes (Andy)
The women have done a good job. As for the men, well, good luck. Figs? Really? The women know what they’re doing, though you wouldn’t hear that from Suzanne, who wants to tell them all exactly what to do. The men have to figure out how to incorporate figs, and they’re pleased with the sauce they get from it. Tennille has never made garlic puree before. She repeatedly questions whether it’s okay. Ariel tells her to stop fussing because it’s good. The men end up winning the challenge, somehow putting together figs and fish. The women lost because the garlic overpowered everything else.
For their reward, the men will be departing for Vegas, where they are greeted with their names (or at least the show’s name) in lights. As for the women, they will be unloading the trucks because it’s delivery day, and they also will be prepping both kitchens. By the way, they have to wake up in the middle of the night to unload, too.
The men are still Robertless, and they’re pleased with how things are going. So is him coming back from the hospital good news or bad news? Bad apparently. Nobody seems happy he’s back, including himself.
Ramsay has invited chefs from his restaurants to sit at chef tables situated pretty much right on top of the action.
Dave is cooking appetizers for his chefs. Did they order risotto? No, but that’s what they’re getting. At least they’ve been greeted. Ariel keeps her table waiting for 17 minutes before she gets yelled at.
Dave starts off well, receiving compliments from both the chefs and Ramsay. Ariel delivers scallops and king crab capellini. Try more salt.
Van has sent out some plastic out for his customers to eat. Somebody could have eaten that, choked on it, and died. Oh, great, we’re back to the pregnant lady with the raw pork again where it’s the end of the world.
Sabrina is confused by what Suzanne’s doing. Whatever it is, it requires running around a lot.
Not having learned, Van delivers yet another plastic wrapped meal.
The blue team seems to have forgotten their VIP diners. Yeah, they don’t even have menus yet. Good luck getting the menus out of Van, who doesn’t seem to know how the food’s prepared.
Robert is hacking up pieces of lamb everywhere. None of them right.
The red team has serviced their executive chefs and are closing in on the finish line with two tables left.
Robert’s not doing any better. He has delivered raw meat. Ramsay calls the boys to him. Since Kevin responds but has not put down his pan, somehow he’s the one who gets yelled at.
The men are forced to shut down, as the women complete the service. Furthermore, both chefs sitting in the red kitchen would be happy to return, while both chefs in the blue kitchen would not.
The one-armed Dave will be able to appoint two people for nomination. Robert pushes for Andy based on past performance. Andy wants Robert to stop eating chicken pot pies all day long. So Robert starts saying something that’s bleeped out again and again and again, whatever it may be.
The first nominee is Robert due to his weak service and health problems. Also based on tonight’s performance, Van has been nominated. Before they go any further, Ramsay wants Andy to step forward, too. Van can get back in line. Then Robert screams a lot. Once that’s done, Andy can get in line. Robert has been dismissed due to that raw dish. Well, him coming back has proved to be quite pointless.
