Episode Report Card Daniel: C- | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Ramsay Arranges a Meeting With the Five Families
By Daniel | Season 11 | Episode 16 | Aired on 06.20.2013
So where we were before the commercial break? Mary enjoying time with her family, and Ja'Nel freaking out about maggots. We do not advance at all. "The faster we can get done, this fucking torture will be behind us, and we can move forward," Ja'Nel says, and then they find "Nedra's head thing" (per Susan), a bandanna in the trash.
Mary returns, pleased to discover that spending time with her family was much more enjoyable than Dumpster-diving. Susan, meanwhile, is discovering that even her jumpsuit-sexiness has its limits, and that limit is handling maggot-encrusted garbage.
Finally Andi ends their misery, Jon lamenting "hippie recycling bastards." The chefs shower and get ready for bed, which means they're about to be summoned to the dining room by Ramsay, half-ready for bed or not. Like Susan, towel wrapped around her head. "At least it's evidence that I've washed myself," she says.
Ramsay says tomorrow night's dinner service will be the most challenging service they've ever had here or in their whole culinary career. They'll be working as one team in one kitchen and there will be another team in the other kitchen, made up of some of the strongest chefs he's ever known. "I need to know how each and every one of you are when you're up against serious competition," he says, and asks if they'd like to meet their competition. Of course they do...
...but that will wait until next week.
