Best of the Worst: Nobody Losing Team / Nominees for Elimination: Both teams were rated as equally weak for their kitchen performance. As such, Chef Ramsay determined the losing team based on the performance of the teams' two waiters: Carol and Giovanni. Carol was rated as above average by 88% of her customers, whereas Giovanni was rated below average by 90% of his customers. As a group, the men nominated Seth for elimination. Wil nominated himself, admitting to poor performance on the garnish station. Eliminated: Wil
Chef Ramsay: You seriously charge $300 to teach people how to make that crap? Colleen: Yes chef. Chef Ramsay: Feel like I need some plastic wrap on my ass. Colleen: I teach manners too, chef. Chef Ramsay: Say again?! Okay, please, Miss Manners, **** off back in line!
Chef Ramsay: I found it quite strange that Wil didn't even have the will to succeed. He clearly didn't belong in Hell's Kitchen.
Wil: I took a risk nominating myself. I ****ed up tonight, plain and simple. Striking out the first time up at bat is very, very demoralizing. I feel very humbled right now.
Wil: Plain and simple, I ****ed up, without a doubt. End of story. I nominate myself.
Chef Ramsay: Charlie's on the garnish, Robert's on the garnish and Wil's on planet cuckoo.
Chef Ramsay: Wil. Wil: Yes, Chef? Chef Ramsay: You're ****. Wil: Yes, Chef, I am. Chef Ramsay: You are so ****, it's unbelievable.
Colleen: We have no more pans, Chef. Chef Ramsay: Look. Pan. Colleen: Thank you, Chef. Chef Ramsay: Pan. Pan. You were going to start fresh spaghetti in a dirty pan. Holy crap.
Customer: (when there is a power outage during service) So there's no backup generator? Jean Philippe: Are you an engineer? Customer: No. Jean Philippe: Because we could use a very good one, now.
Colleen: (in an interview segment) Power went out and I couldn't focus on food. I was just all, you know, trying to put myself in a happy place.
LA: Lacey quit today when she walked out of the kitchen. We could have somebody here that could be an asset to our team and instead we got an ass.
Lacey: Are you serious? Andrea: (in an interview segment) Lacey's definitely not solid. Lacey: What the hell am I supposed to do? Andrea: She's not even close to ready for this. Lacey: Does anybody have any ideas?
Danny: (in an interview segment) Ramsay's definitely just looking for a rise out of me, which he's going to eventually get. Chef Ramsay: So the idea came from where? Danny: I just pulled it out of my ass, sir. Chef Ramsay: Put it back in there, 'cause it sucks.
Chef Ramsay: In terms of flavor, yeah, spot on. Carol: Thank you, Chef. (in an interview segment) To have the greatest chef in the entire world say my food is good, I just wanted to dance, I wanted to sing.
Lacey: (in an interview segment) People will probably look at me and be, 'Oh, here's another pretty girl trying to be a cook,' but I am a hard worker and I can hang with the big boys.
Danny: (in an interview segment) I will dwarf everyone and make them look like they are nothing compared to me, the god of cooking.
