After elimination Seth is confronted by Giovanni about how much he hates him.  After a long day in the kitchen Robert does his best impersonations of Chef Ramsay to lighten up the mood.

Today’s challenge will force the teams to work together.  Hell’s Kitchen will be opening for breakfast.  The customers will be 100 kids who happen to be cheerleaders and football players.  The boys will feed the football players and the girls will feed the cheerleaders.

Colleen encourages the cheerleaders to cheer instead of cooking her hashbrowns.  Robert got screamed at because of the plating but J was the one who  plated it.  Seth is slowing down the blue team by not having the scrambled eggs done when needed.  Both teams are at an even pace.

The girls team serves their 50 cheerleaders before the boys served their 50 football players.  Chef Ramsay is swamped by all the kids wanting his autograph.  Since the boys lost they must clean up EVERYTHING.  In addition to preping both sides of the kitchen for the boys and girls.

The girls won a trip to Beverly Hills for complete relaxation.  While the boys are regrouping Danny and Ben break out in a fight determining who is the best cook on the team.  Ben goes to cool off by throwing a chair off the porch. 

The boys are cleaning up the kitchen and the girls are getting rubbed down by the hotels personal “servants”. 

2 hours remain till doors open and are worried about having the kitchen ready in time.

The girls feel that since they relaxed all day they were ready to win.  The boys didn’t even finish the prep for the girls. 

The doors open

Giovanni makes the mistake for not having his water boiling or seasoned yet.  Seth delivered his first set of scallops and they were cooked incorrectly.  The girls realize that they do not have their tomato basil sauce.

After an hour into dinner service the customers are getting restless.  Danny made the tomato basil sauce for the girls and it was excellent.  A salad has come back to the blue team because there is a hunk of lettuce that looks absolutely disgusting.  LA is getting frustrated with Colleen constant question asking. 

Out in the dining the customers are getting upset with the wait.  One customer said that they would be drunk before the meal even comes out.  Seth is questioned about his rag that he wiped on his face and then on a pan.  With all the problems that are happening he yells at both teams leave. 

Neither of the teams have won and for the first time in Hell’s Kitchen history he has stopped dinner while the restaurant is full of customers.  Both teams must nominate two people for elimination. 

Nominees are:

Boys Team: Seth & Ben
Girls Team: Colleen & Lacey

Chef Ramsay’s decision is to eliminate Seth.

Next time on Hell’s Kitchen, Lacey is put on the men’s team.  Lacey continually tells the boys team that she feels she will be going home.  Andrea falls apart, Robert gets backed into a corner.
