Male narrator: Previously on hell's kitchen: Young guns...
Chef ramsay was so frustrated after dinner service
that he switched around the teams.
I'm feeling pumped,
three very strong girls from the red team.
Our chances of winning are just getting higher, baby.
Narrator: And not everyone was pleased.
How do you feel about being on the red team?
It's sucks.
Aw, you guys give me attitude,
I will [bleep] let you have it.
Narrator: The next morning,
chef ramsay was on a mission...
All of you, take your jackets off.
Narrator: To force the chefs to communicate...
Each of you will get a jacket
that has an amazing recipe on the back.
Narrator: In a language they hopefully would understand.
-All: Ohh! -Ramsay: Emojis!
I hate emojis!
Narrator: Some chefs heard the message loud and clear.
I followed the recipe to a t, chef.
Narrator: While others got lost in translation.
I threw a little bit of mayonnaise in there
to make it pop.
You're trying to make my recipes pop.
Well, let me tell you, big boy, one day when you've got
14 michelin stars, then you can put
[bleep] mayonnaise in your tartar sauce, understood?
Narrator: At dinner service, new team members
emily, victoria and megan
helped lift the blue kitchen to victory.
Hey, the lamb's are cooked beautifully.
Let's finish strong, guys.
I'm so happy.
I mean, I could kiss everyone in the [bleep] mouth
right now because I'm beyond words.
Narrator: And over in the red kitchen...
Come here, all of you. Come here.
Narrator: Payton had trouble adjusting to a new kitchen...
How does that happen?
It's my mistake, chef.
He does not know the menu, chef.
What? What?
Narrator: ...And new teammates.
I'm done. I can't handle him.
Narrator: But morgana not only
lost her way on the fish station.
It's still raw in there.
It goes back in the pan, morgana.
That's embarrassing. I'm [bleep] done.
Narrator: She also lost her voice.
Morgana, do you have anything else that you
want to get off your chest right now?
[sniffling]
narrator: And found herself
at elimination standing next to...
Payton.
-Narrator: In the end... -Morgana.
Narrator: Chef ramsay sent morgana home.
Thank you.
Narrator: Ending her dream
of becoming head chef at gordon ramsay steak
at paris, las vegas.

Who was letting you down on the red team?
Brynn told me straight up she did not feel
as confident with me coming on the red team.
But it's then how you made it seem to chef
was that, like, it was my fault you [bleep] up.
That's that [bleep] that we don't need on this team.

Kevin: Megan is so pretty,
and then that accent is just like,
oh, my god.
It is megan ramsay's 21st birthday party.
Listen carefully, each team needs to prepare
three appetizers and three very exciting entrees.
Megan will select her three favorite apps
and her three favorite entrees.
They'll go on the menu this evening, okay?
The team with the most dishes that make it onto megan's menu
for tonight wins the challenge.
I think megan definitely has a serious palate like her dad
and knows good food,
so I think this is going to be a tough one.
What are you looking for on a menu?
I am definitely looking for a variety,
and also, it's a party, so I want it to be fun and exciting.
Is there anything you really don't like to eat?
I'm not too keen on spicy food or broccoli.
-Got you. -Allergies?
-No, no allergies. -Yeah, I have an allergy
-I'm allergic to boyfriends. -(laughter)
trust me.
Well, good thing I don't have one.
Yeah, thank god for that, yes?
-Yes. -Your 45 minutes...
Dad, I got this.

-Four, three, two...
-Get your plate up. -One, and serve, let's go.
-Whoo! -Ramsay: Excellent.
Now, blue team, you have one extra app.
I need a decision
between you all on which app you're dropping.
Let's go, decide.
You guys can drop the sliders if you want
because I think it might be a little too spicy.
You sure?
I don't want to serve something subpar.
What appetizer are you dropping?
Pork slider, chef,
because I think it might be a touch too spicy for megan.
Wow.
I recognize that there is
some things that are just too risky.
-Meggie, excited to taste? -Yeah, I'm very excited.
Let's start off with appetizers, please.
Let's go, three from the red, three from the blue.
Narrator: In today's judging,
megan will compare appetizers from each team
and judge them on a head-to-head basis.
Let's start off with the first dish.
Narrator: The team with the most dishes selected
for megan's birthday party menu wins the challenge.
Ramsay: Kiya, describe it, please.
They're some sticky wings which were breaded in flour
with salt and pepper in the beginning.
They are sticky, aren't they?
They're very sticky. They're really good though.
-Yeah. -Great seasoning as well.
Thank you so much.
Blue team, let's start off with this.
It looks like a salad.
It's nice and light and fragrant.
Steven, describe this salad, please.
It's a sesame-crusted salmon nicoise,
so it's kind of like an asian twist on a nicoise salad.
Anyway, it's always a bit hard
to get to the stuff underneath.
There's a lot going on,
but the salmon is definitely cooked really well.
I really enjoyed it.
Right, megan, we have to make some decisions.
We have kiya's sticky chicken wing lollipop
or the nicoise by steven.
The first one is...
(suspenseful music)
chicken wings, definitely, they are my favorite.
I really enjoyed them.
Ramsay: Kiya's lollipops are in, okay.
-That's definitely in. -That is one to the red team.
Congratulations, kiya. Good job.
Kiya: I am on cloud nine right now.
The fact that megan picked it right off the bat,
it just showed that everything I did was worth it.
Narrator: The second round of appetizers
has former teammates emily and brynn facing off.
Brynn: It's a lobster roll,
and it has a little bit of grilled pineapple with it.
Oh, dad, it's gone everywhere.
-Sorry. -And a tiny bit
of white wine, because, you know,
you got to sneak in your alcohol somewhere.
I really like the pineapple bit because at first
I thought it was going to be a bit too sweet,
but it's done perfectly.
The second dish that you put forward from the blue team.
Today, megan, I made for you
a roasted red pepper and corn fritter
and because you're 21 a little bit of tequila.
Tequila and lime goes well together, so perfect.
Right, and, megan, how would you know
that tequila and lime go together?
(quirky music)
-I see it on tv. -Okay, right, good.
I did enjoy it.
It almost feels like it's missing something
because the pepper, there's not a huge amount
of pepper inside, but, yeah, no, it's good,
and the sauce is really nice as well.
Awesome.
Your second appetizer for tonight's menu?
Megan: I know my friends really well,
and I know that they love sliders,
so for me, I think I might have to include the sliders.
So that's the sliders and the wings are in
from the red team. Congratulations, well done.
- Yes, megan picked my dish as one of them,
and I'm so ecstatic, yes!
-And the final appetizer, sam. -Yes, chef.
Describe the-- what looks like a canapé.
If you will, it's actually a scallop,
so I call it a sophisticated bite of summer.
But it looks like a scooby snack.
(laughter)
save me a little bite.
Slow down. Don't eat too fast.
-Enough! -Okay.
-I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. -Oh, my lord.
So the sauce underneath is what?
That is a blood orange cream with mascarpone cheese.
Megan: The sauce underneath is perfect.
It's not too thick, and it's not too light.
I really enjoyed it.
Okay. Next one, whose is this?
That's mine.
Great. Antonio, describe it, please.
It's a lobster bacon mac and cheese.
Ramsay: Oh, wow. That lobster is beautiful.
-Thank you, chef. -I love the mac and cheese.
-That's cooked perfectly. -Thank you, chef.
Not too chewy and not too soft.
Thank you.
-Mm. -Our third and final app...
(suspenseful music)
I think it's going to have to be the lobster mac and cheese.
-The lobster mac and cheese. -Yeah, it's your 21st.
You got to have mac and cheese in there somewhere.
Thank you. Thank you!
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Back in it, back in it.
Let's start with your entrees.
Narrator: Each team has prepared three entrees
for megan to choose from.
Ramsay: Thank you.
Narrator: Up first are dishes from trenton and josie.
Let's start off with this one.
It's a filipino steak and eggs.
Essentially, it's breakfast for dinner.
Megan: Steak is cooked really well.
Narrator: With the red team clinging
to a narrow one-point lead,
the blue team is hoping trenton's...
Pepper jam chicken lollipops.
Narrator: Can tie the score.
It's seasoned perfectly, and the stickiness of the chicken
with the sauce goes well together.
I really enjoy it. Thanks.
Ramsay: I like it. It's fun.
Megan, your first entrée,
which one would you like to put on the menu
for tonight's party bash?
(suspenseful music)
I think it's going to have to be this one
with the sauce on the side.
I really enjoyed that.
Narrator: For round two of entrees,
megan will face off against payton.
Payton: Pan-seared salmon.
Underneath, prosciutto-wrapped asparagus.
The rice is a mixture of herbs.
I got dill, parsley, rosemary in there.
Mm. Wow, and that rosemary's strong.
-Okay. -Next one, please.
Rice noodle with a soy ginger peanut sauce.
That peanut butter is really good.
Ramsay: It's almost like a reminiscent of pad thai.
-Yes. -Yeah.
-That was really good. -Awesome. Thank you.
Your second entree, please, megan?
Is the noodles, the rice noodles.
I really enjoyed those with the peanut butter.
-Wow. -They were perfect.
Narrator: With the red team trailing
by one going to the last entrees...
That's mine.
Narrator: Keona is hoping her dish
will keep the red team in the game.
I made for you a smoked shrimp and grits.
Should we lift that up? And the smoke is there.
That definitely looks fun. It smells amazing.
Even though you don't smoke. You promise me you don't smoke.
No. Why are you bringing this in?
-Just checking, that's all. -Everyone knows now.
Well, it smells delicious. Meg, dig in.
That was really good. I really enjoyed that.
Thank you.
And then the final entree from the blue team, please.
I made for you a purple potato puree
and a new york strip.
Ramsay: Great crust on there. How's it taste, meg?
Really good, cooked perfectly.
-Thank you. -Three to two.
Megan: Oh, wow.
Keona: Pick my dish. Please, pick my dish.
Please, pick my dish!
I would definitely like to put the shrimp
and grits one on there.
-Ramsay: Wow. -Megan: That was amazing.
Now, meg, a tough decision, we have a tie.
I'd like to look at all six dishes and then point
to your favorite dish of all.
I know it's hard.
They're all so good.
Antonio: It has to be blue. It has to be blue.
I haven't had a reward yet, so I need something, please.
Please. Please.
(suspenseful music)
I do think it is going to have to be...
These, the noodles.
(cheering)
thank you. Thank you.
Definitely a crazy feeling, you know, to be able to say,
"I had the best dish up there." that's wild.
I could raise the roof internally.
Good job.
Blue team, congratulations.
-Thank you, chef. -Thanks, chef.
It's the first time the blue team

-Really? -Yes!
-They won a challenge! -Yes, yes.
Wow. You're in for a reward and a half.
