Hell's Kitchen 6/8 Minicap: With a Side of Eggs-tra Drama

[waywyrd]

Last week, the red team showed us just how unimpressive they are. Food was thrown, much cursing was done, yet Ramsay refused to shut down the dinner service. After all was bleeped and done, Stacy was sent home and Fran of the Major Eye Bags was allowed to stay after excusing her seafood blunder with the claim that she was a kosher chef. Well then.

Now: Autumn is still irritating her teammates with her bossy ways. The men sit and smoke copious amounts of cigarettes while creepy Andrew spouts off that Ramsay’s food isn’t all that - he’s made better. Out of what animals/body parts, we’ll never know. And prefer not to know.

Ramsay holds an egg challenge where pairs must make scrambled, poached, sunny side up, and soft boiled eggs in five minutes. Siobhan is directed to work on her own, but allows Autumn to poke in and “help” her cook her eggs. Chef isn’t pleased, and rips Siobhan to bits, leading to a sniveling tear-fest that she insists will make her feel better. Smarmy Salvatore proves that he can’t even cook an egg correctly, but the men win by one point due to Siobhan not listening to instructions. For their troubles, the guys get a helicopter tour of L.A., champagne and a rooftop dinner while Andrew creeps out the other guys (even more!) and Ramsay outs Salvatore as a player.

The women? Get to clean, gut, and fillet a truckload of tuna. Many more cigarettes are burned in sacrifice as they grumble about their predicament.

Dinner service: Fran and Scott are picked to do tableside tuna tartar. And let the bumbling begin! Salvatore gets a timeout for not knowing the dessert menu, Mohawk Mikey undercooks the risotto, and Jason undercooks some chicken to the point where I think it was still clucking. Ramsay flips, spewing obscenities and rice all over the kitchen. Not having made enough of a mess, he kicks the trash can across the room.

And then Jamie mucks up the salmon fillets, burning one side. Spying the crispy fish, Ramsay smashes it with his hand, making salmon patties out of what was once a perfectly nice fillet. One high point of dinner service? Salvatore manages to cook the beef Wellington perfectly. Color me shocked.

Andrew continues the creepfest by talking to himself. And the food. And to his special, invisible friends in the kitchen, apparently. The others start giving him the side eye, then Chef spots him trying to recycle liquid mashed potatoes by adding them to a good batch. Chef screams that you can’t do that - Andrew insists that you can. Ramsay sends him away, but Andrew does him one better: he quits! Buh bye. There will be no new coolers for you to stash your bodies in, Mr. Creepy.

Dinner service ends, and nobody got food poisoning. No team wins, either - Ramsay asks both teams to send up one sucker for nomination. Cue Autumn and Jason. Ramsay disagrees, and asks Jamie to step on up. Drama, commercial break, and....Chef sends Mohawk Mikey home, who was nominated by nobody. He takes his hair and his Hell’s Kitchen tattoo on out of there.

Next week: time for the men’s team to have a meltdown. And, more bad cooking, I’m sure.

Thanks Waywrd!

I think you have a good template going here...

Last week, the xxx team showed us just how unimpressive they are. Food was thrown, much cursing was done, yet Ramsay refused to shut down the dinner service. After all was bleeped and done, xxx was sent home and xxx was allowed to stay after excusing her xxx blunder with the claim that [insert silly claim here]. Well then.

Now: Autumn is still irritating her teammates with her bossy ways. The men sit and smoke copious amounts of cigarettes

Next week: time for the men’s team to have a meltdown. And, more bad cooking, I’m sure.

HAHA! Hope that saves you some time in future recaps!!
