- Hell's_Kitchen_(U.S._season_7) abstract "Season 7 of the American competitive reality television series Hell's Kitchen aired on the Fox Network from June 1, 2010 to August 10, 2010. The winner, Holli Ugalde, was promised the head chef position at Chef Ramsay's newly renovated restaurant at the Savoy Hotel in London. Filming had concluded on February 2009, 16 months prior to seventh season premiere, when the hotel reopened in 2010; however, Ugalde was not given the job. Ramsay stated that the American Ugalde could not work in London due to visa problems, but Ugalde called that explanation an excuse, saying, "I don't know if they even applied for my visa."Sous chef Scott Leibfried returned for the Blue Team, and newcomer Andi Van Willigan from Santa Monica, California became the sous chef for the Red Team.".

- Hell's_Kitchen_(U.S._season_7) shortsummary "After the elimination sequence in the previous episode, Chef Ramsay pulls aside Salvatore and expresses his concerns about his abilities while promising to fight back. To that end, early the next day, Salvatore had Scott give him some pointers regarding cooking some of the dishes. Team Challenge: Similar to last season, each chef rolled a die which had letters on its twelve sides. Upon seeing the letter, the chef had ten seconds to call out an ingredient starting with that letter . The men went first. Scott rolled H and went for Halibut, Jason rolled E and went for endive, Ed rolled S and went for salsify, Benjamin rolled C and went for crab, Jay rolled P and went for peas and Salvatore rolled B and went for bacon. For the women, Fran rolled B and went for beets, Nilka rolled S and went for shallots, Autumn rolled M and went for mangoes, Siobhan rolled H and went for ham, Maria rolled T and went for turnips and Holli rolled D and went with duck. The men made a pan roasted halibut with a bacon, pea and crab ragu, a salsify puree and a salad of crab and endive. The women made a mango glazed pan seared duck, pureed turnips with ham and mango and beets. And the turnip had tarragon and duck fat and ham. The men won a close one after Chef Ramsay noted that the duck was cooked with too much "fat" left on. Award / Punishment: The men were told that they were going skydiving , but they discovered that they were going to be in a vertical wind tunnel for the day. The women cleaned the entryway to Hell's Kitchen and prepped both kitchens for the night's dinner service. The stress of the prep work caused Maria to break down crying and leave the kitchen, but after talking with Sous Chef Andi she decided to return to the kitchen. Service: Tonight's service includes numerous celebrities as well as special guests who will be using the chef's tables during this service. The men's special guests are Debi Mazar and her husband, who is also a chef himself. The women's special guests are Kevin Frazier, the host of Entertainment Tonight, and his wife. Despite a slow start on Fish, Salvatore on the Blue Team is able to excel in cooking most of his dishes perfectly. Nilka also excels for the Red Team on the Meat station. On the Red Team, Siobhan mistakes lobster for crab twice on her appetizers as the bins were mislabelled during prep, while Autumn has some issues handling the fish using tongs instead of a spatula, and annoys Chef Ramsay by not seeming to care when she dropped a piece of salmon onto one of her burners, ruining the salmon. On the blue team, Scott tried to control the service by telling other chefs on what to do, only to have issues with his meat as most of his dishes end up undercooked. Ed also had some issues with improperly cooked mashed potatoes. However, the service was considered to be an improvement from the previous night as it took little more than half the time of the previous service, and as a result Chef Ramsay named the teams as joint-winners. This was the first time since season 4 that both teams won dinner service. Nominees for elimination: Ramsay appointed Nilka and Salvatore as the best on their respective teams. Nilka nominated Autumn while Salvatore nominated Scott for his issues with the meat station, despite Scott helping Salvatore prepare for this service. Elimination: Despite Chef Ramsay calling Autumn "soul-less" and Scott "shit on a shovel," neither person was eliminated. Team Change: Instead of sending either one of them home, Chef Ramsay tells Autumn and Scott to take both of their jackets off and informed that they both were switching teams, ending the battle of the sexes. Chef Ramsay's Reason: After our best service yet, I've decided to give Autumn and Scott another chance. But they better excel or they'll both be gone.".
- Hell's_Kitchen_(U.S._season_7) shortsummary "At the start of this episode, Chef Ramsay and the contestants introduced themselves to members of the press, with Chef Ramsay promising the media that the first dinner service will be completed. This is in stark contrast to previous seasons of the show, where the first service in every new season invariably ended in disaster. To help meet his goal, Chef Ramsay gave the contestants a series of video demonstrations on how to cook various dishes. However, these tutorials always began with a fire alarm siren, which sounded several times in the early morning hours while they slept. Signature Dishes / Team Challenge: Each team member cooks their signature dish for Chef Ramsay's approval. The team with the most approved dishes wins. Prior to the start of the challenge, Ramsay sprang a surprise on the chefs by asking a female chef to step forward, and after tasting her dish, he started passionately kissing her. The "contestant" then removed her disguise, revealing herself as Ramsay's wife, Tana . In the actual challenge, Maria, Benjamin, Siobhan, Jay, Jason and Autumn all impressed Chef Ramsay with their dishes. Mikey's dish was felt to be badly presented by Chef Ramsay, but he enjoyed it enough to award the men a point. Andrew, Fran and Scott's dishes were deemed to be bland. The same couldn't be said about Nilka's dish, which was far too hot because she had used half a bottle of Tabasco sauce. Ed's dish was too salty. Salvatore was accused of being lazy by using pre-made pasta and then failing to cook it properly. Stacey's fish was overcooked. Holli's execution of her dish was disastrous, leading Chef Ramsay to throw the plate in the trash. The low point was Jamie's dish, which Chef Ramsay refused to taste due to finding a toothpick in it. The final score was 4-3 in favor of the men. Award / Punishment: No award was given for the men; the women cooks and serves the men breakfast in bed. Service: Jay and Nilka were both assigned to prepare a tableside chicken caesar salad for the diners. Despite the usefulness of the video demonstrations, mistakes began from the very start by both teams including the usual inability to cook food, Fran mistaking crab for lobster, and even Benjamin tasting food and then continuing to use the spoon to cook with. Eventually, Chef Ramsay started sending chefs back up to the dorm, starting with Fran for her troubles on appetizers, along with Jamie for undercooking the entrees, and Maria for laughing at Ramsay. Benjamin and Salvatore were also sent up to the dorm later on, also for trouble on the appetizer section, followed by Stacey and Mikey, who both continually served up undercooked fish. However, as mentioned at the beginning of the episode, Chef Ramsay was determined to fulfil his promise to the media, so he got Jay and Nilka back into the kitchen and combined the remaining half of the red team with the five remaining members of the blue team in the blue kitchen to finish the remainder of service. Ed was able to lead the team and finish the first dinner service. Nominees for elimination: While Chef Ramsay noted that both teams had terrible services, he deemed the men to have been slightly better before the teams were merged, and declared them the winners. The women were told to nominate two contestants for elimination; the team nominated Fran for being one of the first three to get thrown out of the service, and for mistaking crab for lobster . Stacey was the other nominee for being confused on the fish station. Elimination: Stacey was the first chef to leave Hell's Kitchen, for her lackadaisical attitude and admitted lack of experience in working on the line. Chef Ramsay's Reason: It's a good thing Stacey's a private chef, her food wasn't good enough for the public.".
- Hell's_Kitchen_(U.S._season_7) shortsummary "Individual Challenge: Chef Ramsay showed the chefs how to cook monk fish, and then they each had to verbally teach a novice how to duplicate Chef Ramsay's dish. Jay won this challenge. Award / Punishment: Jay chose Holli to come with him on his surprise reward—an aerial tour of Los Angeles on the Goodyear Blimp, the Spirit of America. Benjamin and Autumn did maintenance and cleaning work, including in the parking lot, which the blimp flew over and flashed a digital message that asked if Ben and Autumn were enjoying their punishment. Service: For the first time in Hell's Kitchen history, contestants choose which station they should work in. The service had a rough start, with Holli undercooking the John Dory, Jay serving a bland risotto, Autumn undercooking the scallops, and Benjamin not only causing a beef wellington to split open, but also became non-communicative for part of the time. However, eventually, all four chefs finished the service flawlessly, with no food returned from the patrons. Nominees for elimination: Jay, the service's Best of the Best, was told by Chef Ramsay to nominate two chefs he feels should be sent home. His first choice is Autumn while his second choice is Benjamin instead of Holli because she never had a bad service. This marked a record-breaking seventh nomination for Autumn which later equaled by Elise in Season 9. Elimination: Chef Ramsay called Autumn and Benjamin forward, one by one, only to order both of them back in line—after a very successful dinner service, Chef Ramsay decided that it was impossible to send anyone home; therefore, he refused to eliminate anyone. Instead he decided to invite each of the contestant's family members to Hell's Kitchen for a brief visit . Chef Ramsay's Reason: I decided to let all the chefs enjoy tonight's successful dinner service, but what they don't know is, after the next dinner service I'll be cutting the field in half.".
- Hell's_Kitchen_(U.S._season_7) shortsummary "Individual Challenge: Holli and Jay travel by limo to The London West Hollywood where, to a crowd of fans, they had one hour to cook five dishes—an Amuse-bouche, a cold appetizer, a hot appetizer, a fish course and a meat course. Judging the proceedings were five chefs from Chef Ramsay's restaurants in England. Jay won this challenge 3-2, granting him first pick of the kitchen staff. Staff: Five of the last six eliminated contestants return for the finale . For winning the challenge, Jay has first chose Benjamin, Jason and Fran, while Holli chose Autumn, Nilka and was left with Siobhan after Jay picked Fran. Setup: As before, Hell's Kitchen is split up into two separate restaurants, each containing 50 diners and like the previous season, without any restaurant redesigns by the finalists. Prior to the start of service, Chef Ramsay summoned Holli and Jay to his office for words of encouragement—and to give each a free trip to Australia. Service: Among the customers are Holli and Jay's relatives and friends. In the Red Kitchen, Nilka and Siobhan had problems on the appetizers. Jason had trouble on the meat station. Each of them were backed up in the final dinner service by the fallen contestants. Jay was backed up by Fran who eventually made a disaster while Holli was supported by Nilka who was sweating profusely during the preparation. Chef Ramsay also noted that Benjamin appeared to be leading the team more than Jay was, and warned Jay to step up and run the kitchen. However, both teams eventually rallied together and finished dinner service. Winner: The winner is determined by Chef Ramsay, based on the comments of the diners. As before, each contestant stands in front of a door; the door that opens designates the winner. Holli's door opened, making her the seventh season winner of Hell's Kitchen. By extension, this is also the Red team's only service victory. Chef Ramsay's Reason: Holli won because she has grown as a chef more than any other chef in Hell's Kitchen. At the start, she was barely noticeable. But then, she got her confidence. She emerged and there was no holding her back. I'm absolutely thrilled she'll be working with me at the Savoy Grill in London.".
- Hell's_Kitchen_(U.S._season_7) shortsummary "Individual Challenge: In this individual challenge, the chefs have thirty minutes to create a great-tasting dish and to make it look aesthetically pleasing. The dishes are judged based solely on presentation by culinary students. From worst to best, the eliminated dishes were Holli, Jay, Jason and Autumn. Benjamin and Ed's dishes were singled out to be the top two dishes. The dishes are then judged by Tanya Steel of Epicurious on taste, who declared Benjamin the winner. Award / Punishment: The losers must clean the entire restaurant, while Benjamin gets a make-over and a photo shoot with Epicurious. In addition, Ben's dish will be featured at the next dinner service. Service: With the final six, Chef Ramsay was hoping for a high quality service, but it proved to be anything but. Ed was horrific on the fish station as he frequently under cooked and overcooked the fish, and Benjamin had no communication whatsoever with the team. Benjamin and Ed's problems caused Jay to get confused on garnishes, and he was not able to give Chef Ramsay accurate times as to when his garnishes would be ready. Meanwhile the team as a whole struggled to remember what was on order. After Ed overcooked some scallops and Benjamin brought up meat entrées for the wrong table, Ramsay kicked both of them out of the kitchen. The remaining four chefs were able to complete dinner service which included serving Whoopi Goldberg who was a special guest at the chef's table. Nominees for elimination: Based on tonight's service it appeared that Benjamin and Ed would be the two nominees for getting kicked out of the kitchen. However when Chef Ramsay told the team to decide on two nominees based on "overall" performance, this changed the team's method of thinking entirely. The team nominated Autumn for the numerous times in the past she'd been nominated ; and Ed, due to his bad performances recently, including tonight's poor performance on the fish station. Elimination: Ed was the chef asked to leave Hell's Kitchen, being told that he was disintegrating and also for an unconvincing final plea. At first, it seemed that Autumn would be leaving as Chef Ramsay called her before Ed; however, not believing the wisdom of the team, he told her, "You're getting better." Chef Ramsay's Reason: Ed was one of the favorites because of his strong start. Unfortunately in cooking it's not how you start, it's how you finish.".
- Hell's_Kitchen_(U.S._season_7) shortsummary "Team Challenge: In the Team Communication challenge, teams must serve lunch to members of the University of Southern California Marching Band and Cheerleaders. The women won their first challenge of the season in a very close finish. Award / Punishment: The women join Chef Ramsay and his family for a soccer game at the beach. The men don yellow jumpsuits to help clean a portion of the Los Angeles River via going there by a school bus with no air conditioning. Service: Before service has begun, Fran had burned a portion of her hand while carrying a large pot of hot water, and she refused to see the medic, thinking it would slow the team down if she had to have her hand bandaged. Holli and Salvatore were chosen to act as assistants to Jean-Phillipe. While Holli had little trouble taking orders for the Red Team, Salvatore's inability to write an order properly stalled the Blue team and had Chef Ramsay screaming at him until Salvatore nearly walked out of Hell's Kitchen at one point. Unlike Andrew in the previous episode however, Jean-Phillipe was able to talk Salvatore back into the game, although Salvatore said that if the Blue team lost, he would nominate himself for elimination. Despite a slow start, the blue team's service ran more smoothly when they got onto the entrees, thanks to Benjamin's strong performance on their meat station. Meanwhile, Fran was increasingly suffering from her burn, and Ramsay forced her to seek medical attention after he noticed her arguing with Autumn over the situation, while Jamie was having problems with the garnish station by burning the carrots and mashed potatoes. Siobhan tried to take over Jamie's station, but only succeeded in losing track of her own fish station and so served up several undercooked entrees. Nonetheless, after a dinner service lasting more than four hours, both teams were able to complete service. Nominees for elimination: The men were named the winners, though Chef Ramsay told them that they had Benjamin to thank for their victory. The women had to nominate two people for elimination, choosing Jamie and Fran. Elimination: Jamie was the fourth chef to leave Hell's Kitchen. While the women thought Fran had been the worst cook in their kitchen that night, her impassioned plea impressed Chef Ramsay, who felt that the fact that Jamie had let Siobhan take over her station proved that Jamie was a bad leader and would never make it as a head chef. Chef Ramsay's Reason: To be a great chef you need creativity, leadership qualities, and passion. Jamie had passion.".
- Hell's_Kitchen_(U.S._season_7) shortsummary "Team Challenge: Each chef had to catch a pig in a pen to get an ingredient listed on the pigs collar, totaling 3 pork items and 3 side items. The teams then had to make up three dishes, each with pork as the primary ingredient and one further ingredient. The red team got ham hock, tenderloin, blood sausage, apple, prunes and sweet potato. The blues got bacon, pork chop, loin chop, cabbage, pinto beans and bok choi. The red team got off to a disastrous start, as Ramsay spat out their first dish and said it was disgusting, resulting in an easy point for the blue team's roasted pork loin. The red team earned a point on the next round, as Ramsay enjoyed their fennel-encrusted pork tenderloin and thought the blue team's honey-glazed bacon was far too sweet. On the final round, Maria made a critical mistake and served up a sweet potato soup, only using hamhock as a garnish, which violated the main rule of the challenge . Ramsay sarcastically congratulated Maria on "screwing" her team and named the blue team as the winners. Award / Punishment: The blue team took a day off at Glen Ivy Hot Springs Spa. The red team had to go to the pen to give the pigs a bath. Pre-Service: Chef Ramsay announced that Hell's Kitchen was going to be hosting a barbecue night. During prep, Nilka landed herself in hot water with Ramsay when she fried several pieces of chicken hours before Hell's Kitchen was due to open, and Nilka also appeared to sulk after being told off about the incident. Service: The service had two servings , with the teams taking turns in cooking the menu and then working tables in the dining room. While Fran got the red team off to a good start on the appetizers, the team experienced numerous difficulties while cooking the entrées, not helped by infighting among the team members, while the blue team did well in the dining room despite further difficulties caused by Salvatore's bad handwriting. Chef Ramsay got annoyed at Salvatore and rhetorically asked him whether he'd ever been to school, only to be taken aback when Salvatore revealed that since he had started working in the U.S. as soon as he moved over from Italy, he had never been to an American school and, as a result, never formally learned to read or write in English. Upon this revelation, Chef Ramsay stopped criticising his writing. When the teams swapped, the blue team proved to be little better at cooking the menu than their counterparts were; Jay was strong on the appetizers, but Salvatore got confused on the garnishes, Autumn undercooked some of her entrées, and Jason got into a heated argument with Chef Ramsay after he tried to save time by frying chicken and French fries in the same basket. The red team were significantly worse in the dining room however, being slow to get orders into the kitchen. Maria, in particular got a lot of her tickets wrong, and took an order from a table that Holli had already taken the order for. Nominees for elimination: Chef Ramsay named the red team the losers; both the teams had poor services in the kitchen, but the blues won out overall based on their performance in the dining room. Fran was named the best of the worst for her strong performance on the appetizers, and initially decided to nominate Maria and Scott. Scott talked Fran out of this however, and persuaded her to nominate Nilka instead, in order to ensure that Maria went home. Chef Ramsay immediately saw through this ploy however and sent Nilka back in line, calling up Scott to take her place. Elimination: Maria was the fifth chef to leave Hell's Kitchen, for being the worst performer in both the kitchen and the dining room. After Maria left, Chef Ramsay told Fran to follow her instincts when given a responsibility. Chef Ramsay's Reason: Maria was in over her head. On garnish she was lost and her team paid the cost. That's why her life in Hell's Kitchen is dead.".
- Hell's_Kitchen_(U.S._season_7) shortsummary "Team Challenge: The challenge was to make meals out of the five mother sauces while also not reusing any of the other twenty ingredients given to them for use. The blue team worked well together; on the red team Nilka, who was still angry at being nominated in the previous episode, took most of the ingredients without first consulting her teammates. To judge the dishes, Chef Ramsay called on the help of his wife and mother. Fran and Nilka won points for the red team, while Ed and Benjamin got points for the blue team. However, because Siobhan and Jay both grossly undercooked their dishes and failed to earn a point when they faced off, the final score was tied at 2-2. Ultimately, Ramsay decided to award an extra point to the blue team for Jason's dish, which had lost out to Nilka's dish earlier, but Ramsay considered to be the best of the dishes that did not earn a point . Therefore, with a score of 3 to 2, the blue team was victorious. Award / Punishment: The blue team went to the Ye Olde King's Head British Pub in Santa Monica, California. Each member of the blue team also received a set of premium pots and pans, compliments of Chef Ramsay. The red team was punished by cleaning and preparing both kitchens. During the punishment Siobhan suffered an allergic reaction to the cleaning products and had to sit out the remainder of the punishment, while Nilka was angry at Chef Ramsay's decision, feeling that the red team should have been named winners because she had cooked the best dish. Service: Hell's Kitchen hosted family night , adding a kids menu consisting of dishes such as chicken fingers and spaghetti. The blue team initially suffered from Salvatore cooking only one portion of risotto when two were on order, and then lying to Chef Ramsay about having done so. This caused Ramsay to furiously declare him untrustworthy, telling him that "Working with a chef that tells lies is ten thousand times worse than working with a chef that can't cook." Other than that, the blue team's service went largely without incident; in particular, Benjamin emerged as a strong leader. The red team continued to struggle, getting off to a bad start when Nilka undercooked the risotto, and no-one on the team knew who was supposed to be cooking the spaghetti appetizer. Fran overcooked the scallops, while Scott lost track of his orders and served up raw wellingtons. The final straw came when Scott served up chicken and beef that were both burnt, and Chef Ramsay sent all of the red chefs out of the kitchen while he, Sous Chef Scott and Sous Chef Andi completed the red service alone and without further incident. Nominees for elimination: Chef Ramsay named the red team as the losers, saying that they had delivered the worst service he had ever seen in his life, and told them to come up with two nominees for elimination. When asked who the nominees were, Fran nominated Scott and then revealed that she was the second nominee, but admitted that she wasn't actually sure why she was nominated and thought Siobhan should be nominated. Chef Ramsay asked the team if they could at least agree who their strongest member was, but Scott and Nilka both claimed to be the strongest and started arguing furiously with each other, and Fran soon joined in as well. Dismayed by the complete lack of team harmony, Ramsay took matters into his own hands and called forward Scott, Fran and Siobhan. Elimination: Scott was the sixth chef to leave Hell's Kitchen. He interrupted Siobhan's explanation of why she should stay in order to launch a personal attack on her, which didn't impress Chef Ramsay, and when asked to justify why he should stay, he started bragging at length about how he was the best cook on either team. Ramsay rapidly lost patience, and interrupted Scott in mid-sentence to tell Fran and Siobhan to get back in line, and then he finally eliminated Scott. Team Change: Benjamin was told by Chef Ramsay to fill in Scott's spot on the Red Team. Chef Ramsay's Reason: If Scott could cook as well as he talks, he'd be the winner of Hell's Kitchen. Unfortunately for him, he can't.".
- Hell's_Kitchen_(U.S._season_7) shortsummary "Team Challenge: The contestants conduct a blind taste test to see which foods they can correctly identify. For the first time in Hell's Kitchen history, the blue team won the blind taste challenge . Jay was singled out as the star for being the only contestant to correctly identify two ingredients. Award / Punishment: The blue team received VIP passes to go to Sea World to swim with the dolphins and to spend the day at the park. The red team takes in several deliveries of food. However, Jean-Philippe pointed out that the wine delivery that they received was meant for Gordon Ramsay at The London, West Hollywood, not for Hell's Kitchen. Service: Each team prepares their own menu consisting of four each of appetizers, entrees and dessert, with the customers deciding which menu to order from. Chef Ramsay was not impressed with either menu however, branding the red team's menu uninspiring and the blue team's menu absolutely terrible. The blue team decided to revamp their menu at the last minute, but the red team ignored Ramsay's suggestions for improving their dishes. As a result, the orders for the blue team's menu vastly outnumbered those of the red team. Both kitchens were brought down by poor performances from Autumn and Fran on their respective meat stations, and this eventually led to Jay kicking Autumn off the blue team's meat station and telling her to prepare the desserts instead. Nominees for elimination: While the red team had clearly been the worse of the two teams, Chef Ramsay refused to name the blue team the winners, since they had come up with such a bad menu at the first time of asking, and had not executed their redesigned version to his satisfaction. With no winning team, both teams each nominate one chef up for elimination with the blue team nominating Autumn while the red team nominated Fran. Elimination: Chef Ramsay told both Autumn and Fran to take both of their jackets off, and Fran was told to leave Hell's Kitchen, the ninth chef to do so; while Ramsay admired Fran's determination, he felt that she had gone as far as she could. Before Fran left, Chef Ramsey told her to never give up, and keep her head up high. Team Change: Despite being moved to the blue team even though she had a rocky service at first, Autumn was moved back to the red team after Chef Ramsay told her that she has one more chance. Chef Ramsay's Reason: Fran wanted her team to communicate, but it seems the only thing her team agreed on was wanting her gone.".
- Hell's_Kitchen_(U.S._season_7) shortsummary "Team Challenge: The contestants each cook a lobster dish using a 10-pound lobster, with three judges, all Michelin-starred chefs, deciding which ones are best. Only one dish from each team earned a point: Holli's and Jason's. As with episode 6, Chef Ramsay broke the tie by choosing the best lobster dish, a decision which ended up going to Holli, who's dish was "by far" the best. Note: The Blue Team's lobster was named Salvatore, and the Red Team's lobster was named Siobhan, both of whom were former competitors in this season. Award / Punishment: The red team sample some caviar at a Petrossian Paris, and were each given $1000 to spend in a shopping spree. The blue team must clean the dorms and prep each kitchen for that night's service—the red team's kitchen first. Service: When the Red Team returned from their reward, the Blue Team was still prepping the Red Team's kitchen, and had not begun prepping their own kitchen. Chef Ramsay then declared that both teams will operate in the Red Team's kitchen, serving customers who will be attending the theatre after dinner, placing a 2½-hour time limit on the service. Holli was instructed to serve carvier tableside, which she did without any problems and also appeared to enjoy herself in the dining room. Nilka had problems on the fish station, mainly undercooking the fish, and suffering an emotional meltdown. Meanwhile, Ed allowed some of his pans to catch fire on the garnish station, prompting Ramsay to tell him to have "a little finesse" whilst cooking. Despite these problems, the two teams rallied and finished the service with fifteen minutes to spare. The standout performer in the service was Jason who had a virtually flawless run on the meat station. :Automatic elimination: After Nilka committed numerous mistakes on the fish station, Chef Ramsay ordered Nilka out of the kitchen, and told her to take off her jacket and leave Hell's Kitchen. Nilka then went back into the kitchen and pleaded to be given a second chance, and despite Chef Ramsay again telling her to leave Hell's Kitchen, Nilka refused to do so and even tried to get back on the fish station. This eventually led to Benjamin, who had taken over her station, being forced to usher Nilka out of the kitchen. Before the actual elimination, Chef Ramsay waited at the back exit to talk to Nilka with calmer heads prevailing. Chef Ramsay urged Nilka not to give up her dream and to leave with her head held high, before saying goodbye to her, taking her jacket, and sending her home via taxi which made her the tenth chef to leave Hell's Kitchen. Like J from Season 5, Nilka did receive her full elimination sequence after being thrown out of mid-service at the end of the episode as she was the only one eliminated this episode. Nominees for elimination: The teams were named joint-winners , and despite having the best service in the whole season, were told to nominate one chef from each team for elimination. Autumn and Ed were nominated to the chopping block. Non-Elimination: Even though it appeared Chef Ramsay was going to pick Ed to leave Hell's Kitchen, he gave Ed and the rest of the chefs each a black jacket after Chef Ramsay congratulated them as the final six. Chef Ramsay's Reason: Tonight was the best service we've had in Hell's Kitchen, and that's why I rewarded the final six. Now, only the best chefs remain. Nilka was clearly out of her depth.".
