–“HELL’s KITCHEN”—(9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) CC

IT’S EVERY CHEF FOR THEMSELVES ON “HELL’S KITCHEN” THURSDAY, APRIL 9, ON FOX

Tensions run high as the remaining chefs join forces to form one team. During the individual challenge, each chef must use fourteen simple ingredients to create a phenomenal dish to impress Chef Ramsay. The winner receives the “best reward” seen in HELL’S KITCHEN thus far, while the losers endure a painful physical punishment. In order to personally outshine the other competitors, chefs must work well as teammates during the heated dinner service that sends one chef to the medic. Tune-in to see who Chef Ramsay sends packing on HELL’S KITCHEN airing Thursday, April 9 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (HK-510) (TV-14 L)

Last week at service the teams were requested to come up with their own menus for the night. Disaster struck through both teams during dinner service; from Ben’s slaughtered Filet Mignon steaks, to Carol’s uncooked potatoes, both teams crumbled under pressure. One restaurant guest tried taking matters into her own hands by taking her second unseasoned carpaccio dish up to Ramsay, where then Ramsay insults her back to her seat. Tension between Robert and Ben escalated during entrees and desserts, as Ben saw that Robert couldn’t keep up with the speed of the kitchen. After Ramsay saw enough misery from both kitchens, he ordered to shut down the kitchens.

The Red Team was the winner and Ben and Robert were nominated. Chef Ramsey disregarded the two nominees and Carol was eliminated despite being on the winning team.
