2
00:00:26,620 --> 00:00:29,740
Frank asked me if you want to be my partner, it
was kind of like being asked to
3
00:00:29,740 --> 00:00:32,460
go on prom with somebody that
you're not totally interested in.
4
00:00:36,980 --> 00:00:38,520
It's very disconnected to me.
5
00:00:41,820 --> 00:00:45,380
Whose idea was it to make the
prickly pear with the coconut?
6
00:00:46,160 --> 00:00:47,880
It was our idea, you know.
7
00:00:48,020 --> 00:00:50,900
Forget about just getting by. You think
you're going to win with that dish.
8
00:00:51,180 --> 00:00:54,020
Sometimes maybe you have to,
like, stand out and maybe
9
00:00:54,020 --> 00:00:56,160
that would be the thing
that sticks in your mind.
10
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:57,160
But the goal was to win.
11
00:00:58,640 --> 00:00:59,280
Marisa.
12
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:02,220
And Josie.
13
00:01:02,900 --> 00:01:04,180
The King's Packer and I was involved.
14
00:01:06,140 --> 00:01:08,940
Now ten chefs remain to fight it out.
15
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:13,140
At stake for the winner, a state
-of-the-art Kenmore Pro Kitchen.
16
00:01:13,540 --> 00:01:17,520
Burnished by Sears, an editorial
feature in Food & Wine magazine.
17
00:01:17,860 --> 00:01:21,000
A chance to showcase their
culinary talent at the
18
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,360
25th anniversary Food &
Wine Classic in Aspen.
19
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:28,740
$100,000 to kick-start
their culinary career.
20
00:01:29,180 --> 00:01:31,800
Furnished by the makers of
the GLAAD family of products.
21
00:01:32,220 --> 00:01:34,440
And their title, Boss Tasha.
22
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,620
It sure is quiet in the girls'
room without Josie and Marisa.
23
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,520
It's really quiet, Josie.
But I still want to win.
24
00:02:27,500 --> 00:02:29,680
I was shocked because
Josie was one of the
25
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,480
most talented people
here in this competition.
26
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:36,340
So to see her go just sort of lets
reality really, really set in.
27
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,560
See that? That's what this
card says in the back.
28
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:44,600
How many of those are you handing out?
29
00:02:45,620 --> 00:02:48,940
I think that there's a lot of
people that dislike Marcel.
30
00:02:49,380 --> 00:02:51,380
Maybe he's a little bit
cocky. I don't know.
31
00:02:51,380 --> 00:02:54,660
I like him. I have dealt
with him in a different way.
32
00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:00,960
I don't really know if they all got together
one night, rolling darts at a board,
33
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,560
trying to figure out, oh, it
landed on Marcel. Let's hate him.
34
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,440
This is about the food. I don't care.
35
00:03:07,640 --> 00:03:09,640
You could be my best friend.
You could be my worst enemy.
36
00:03:10,140 --> 00:03:12,240
It doesn't matter. We just
need to cook together.
37
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,030
All right, folks. Let's find out
what's going to happen today.
38
00:03:34,900 --> 00:03:39,840
We walked into the Kenmore kitchen
and we saw a bunch of canned goods.
39
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,120
Hello, chefs. Welcome
to the Kenmore kitchen.
40
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:48,450
There are 10 of you left to compete for
the title of top chef, Tom Colicchio.
41
00:03:48,540 --> 00:03:51,000
We'll be judging today's
quick fire challenge.
42
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,420
It was a big surprise to
see Chef Tom as our judge.
43
00:03:54,780 --> 00:03:56,780
So far as my track
record, I've done better
44
00:03:56,780 --> 00:03:59,460
with guest judges than
with our own Chef Tom.
45
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:03,480
With the holiday season upon us, we
typically do a can drive in our restaurants.
46
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:05,660
We ask our guests to
bring in canned goods
47
00:04:05,660 --> 00:04:07,960
that we distribute to
community food banks.
48
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,540
Not everyone has access
to fresh foods, but
49
00:04:10,540 --> 00:04:11,980
that doesn't mean that
they can't eat well.
50
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,440
So here's my quick fire challenge to you.
51
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,560
Take an unexciting ingredient and
turn it into something fabulous.
52
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:21,260
You'll have to use at least
three cans for your final dish,
53
00:04:21,540 --> 00:04:23,420
and you'll have 15 minutes
to prepare that dish.
54
00:04:23,860 --> 00:04:27,740
Trying to make tasty food with
canned goods is asking a lot,
55
00:04:27,840 --> 00:04:30,820
and I'm thinking that it's going to
be an extremely difficult challenge.
56
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,940
You know, when my family was homeless,
the food bank really helped us a lot.
57
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,940
So, you know, I'm not
scared to cook out of a can.
58
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,500
Remember, if you win this challenge, you'll
be immune from elimination in the next.
59
00:04:42,500 --> 00:04:48,500
You have 15 minutes, and
your time starts now.
60
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:58,020
15 minutes, and you don't
even know what the cans are.
61
00:04:58,220 --> 00:05:00,920
Within like a minute, you have to
decide what you're going to make.
62
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:07,520
I was scrambling. Everybody was
scrambling. It was a man dash.
63
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:11,260
15 minutes.
64
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,640
Fuck on.
65
00:05:21,100 --> 00:05:23,880
I'm very surprised when
I look over my shoulder
66
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,880
and see that there are
people that are brave enough
67
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,140
to try to attempt hot food in 15 minutes.
68
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,060
I'm thinking immediately south.
69
00:05:30,060 --> 00:05:31,500
Oh, here we go.
70
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,780
To try to assimilate some
dish and twist it enough
71
00:05:37,780 --> 00:05:39,620
so it doesn't taste
like it came from a can,
72
00:05:40,130 --> 00:05:40,910
that's going to be the challenge.
73
00:05:41,840 --> 00:05:42,900
Can I just... I'll take the bag.
74
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:45,560
Five.
75
00:05:46,740 --> 00:05:47,960
Not a lot of...
76
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:49,060
7.29.
77
00:05:51,740 --> 00:05:56,700
Oh, I just need a mess. It's okay.
78
00:05:57,740 --> 00:05:58,540
One minute 38.
79
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:00,320
What do I need? What do I need?
80
00:06:04,300 --> 00:06:06,420
Okay, your temple's down. Hands up.
81
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:08,200
Right now.
82
00:06:08,590 --> 00:06:09,380
They're up. Good.
83
00:06:10,980 --> 00:06:12,860
We have a new potato salad.
84
00:06:13,060 --> 00:06:14,300
It's strong mushroom, baby corn,
85
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,980
and they're in the orange
vinaigrette with grilled anchovy.
86
00:06:17,540 --> 00:06:19,820
They're not fresh anchovy, which
would have been a lot better.
87
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:20,820
It's a can challenge.
88
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:21,680
It's a can, yeah.
89
00:06:22,580 --> 00:06:23,140
Go, Betty.
90
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,400
I have made for you lemon hummus,
91
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,690
beets, and artichoke hearts
in a sage vinaigrette.
92
00:06:30,740 --> 00:06:31,260
Sam.
93
00:06:31,660 --> 00:06:35,440
So this is a crunchy anchovy
over a garbanzo and beet salad
94
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,800
flavored with little Dijon
and lemon vinaigrette.
95
00:06:40,100 --> 00:06:42,400
I've created a nice little
canned dish for you guys.
96
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,660
We have some hearts and palm with clams
97
00:06:44,660 --> 00:06:46,020
and a little coconut milk foam,
98
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,140
a creme fraiche with trout and chervil,
99
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,460
and then lastly, some water
chestnuts with citrus.
100
00:06:51,260 --> 00:06:51,720
Why the coconut?
101
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:53,860
I think that the coconut milk goes nice
102
00:06:53,860 --> 00:06:55,920
with the hearts, palms, and the clams.
103
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:56,180
You think so?
104
00:06:58,740 --> 00:07:00,940
Well, I made the 15-minute salad.
105
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,820
I got garbanzo beans,
green beans, kidney beans,
106
00:07:04,060 --> 00:07:05,240
and some artichoke hearts.
107
00:07:05,540 --> 00:07:06,360
Why don't you put the mint in there?
108
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:07,820
Just to give it a little bit of a twist.
109
00:07:07,900 --> 00:07:08,810
That's actually pretty nice.
110
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:09,820
It makes a difference.
111
00:07:10,300 --> 00:07:10,700
Yeah, it does.
112
00:07:10,900 --> 00:07:11,020
Thanks.
113
00:07:11,340 --> 00:07:11,680
Thank you.
114
00:07:12,420 --> 00:07:14,340
I sauteed a canned spinach
with cannellini beans
115
00:07:14,340 --> 00:07:15,740
and a little red chili flakes.
116
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:17,940
The new potatoes, I drossed them,
117
00:07:18,220 --> 00:07:20,040
and Vienna sausages, I roasted as well.
118
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,040
Somehow you managed for
it to lose its caniness.
119
00:07:22,700 --> 00:07:23,140
Thank you.
120
00:07:23,140 --> 00:07:25,460
I don't have Thanksgiving in
Mexico, but we have Christmas,
121
00:07:25,860 --> 00:07:27,380
and we always make a salad fruit.
122
00:07:28,100 --> 00:07:30,700
And then this is hash with
shallots, fresh parsley,
123
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,100
and I put some kidney beans.
124
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:33,280
Why the two things together?
125
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,960
We always eat the salad with meat.
126
00:07:37,220 --> 00:07:37,660
Hello there.
127
00:07:37,780 --> 00:07:38,280
Okay, nice.
128
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:40,000
Pasta puttanesca.
129
00:07:40,580 --> 00:07:43,940
I use the double ham instead
of anchovies at the base,
130
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,040
and we do the tomatoes,
the capers, the peas.
131
00:07:48,610 --> 00:07:51,400
What I've done here is I've done a
blueberry yogurt cream on the top.
132
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:54,940
In the middle I have a
peach-coconut Italian cream.
133
00:07:58,100 --> 00:07:58,940
Hey, how's it going?
134
00:07:59,400 --> 00:07:59,600
Good.
135
00:07:59,920 --> 00:08:00,830
It's made of mashed potatoes.
136
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,080
You butter all the oil, all the cream,
137
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,000
some chili, the bacon-wrapped corn.
138
00:08:06,700 --> 00:08:08,660
I think if anybody really put
themselves out there today,
139
00:08:08,700 --> 00:08:09,040
it was Mike.
140
00:08:09,420 --> 00:08:10,880
Never in a million years would 15 minutes
141
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:12,440
would I have tried to
make mashed potatoes.
142
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:13,420
Tom, what did you think?
143
00:08:13,980 --> 00:08:16,120
No, overall I thought you guys
really embraced the challenge.
144
00:08:16,260 --> 00:08:17,540
I thought some pretty interesting things.
145
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:19,600
Cliff didn't taste like canned food.
146
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:20,600
It was really clean, fresh.
147
00:08:21,020 --> 00:08:23,960
Sam, I love the idea that you
thought about frying anchovies.
148
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,290
Marcel, I find when you work with clams
149
00:08:27,340 --> 00:08:29,840
and if you work with coconut,
it has to be a place cold.
150
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:31,900
Or they taste off.
151
00:08:32,820 --> 00:08:34,200
The hash on its own was wonderful.
152
00:08:34,580 --> 00:08:35,940
I thought the fruit was wonderful.
153
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:37,880
I'm still not sold on
putting the two together.
154
00:08:39,340 --> 00:08:40,760
Elon, I'd like you to
come stand over here.
155
00:08:42,300 --> 00:08:43,400
Mia, why don't you come
up to the front here?
156
00:08:44,060 --> 00:08:45,420
Sam, you can come up as well.
157
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,040
Right, Cliff, you can just
change places with Michael.
158
00:08:53,180 --> 00:08:54,780
And Frankie, you can stay where you are.
159
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:57,100
Okay, so who's your winner?
160
00:08:57,900 --> 00:09:00,630
The winner of the canned
good challenge is Sam.
161
00:09:03,660 --> 00:09:06,740
Chef Coelucchio announced
that Sam was the winner
162
00:09:06,740 --> 00:09:08,720
and I'm thinking, damn
it, there I go again.
163
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,720
I'm that close to winning a
doggone quick-fire challenge
164
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,100
and it slips through my fingers.
165
00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,200
Mia, you have also won.
166
00:09:17,540 --> 00:09:19,200
And Cliff, what?
167
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:20,380
I'm in shock.
168
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,560
I'm absolutely in shock
with the judge's decision.
169
00:09:24,140 --> 00:09:26,300
I tried Cliff's food
and I tried Sam's food.
170
00:09:26,940 --> 00:09:28,880
I spit out Cliff's food.
171
00:09:29,300 --> 00:09:30,080
And Elon.
172
00:09:33,610 --> 00:09:35,600
Frank, you are a winner as well.
173
00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:37,520
All five of you actually
won the challenge.
174
00:09:38,500 --> 00:09:40,240
I feel great about this.
175
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,320
This is my first time
winning immunity number one.
176
00:09:43,780 --> 00:09:44,580
So congratulations.
177
00:09:45,140 --> 00:09:47,720
That means none of you
five can be eliminated.
178
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,960
And the next challenge,
179
00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,600
Mike, Marcel, Betty, Elia and Carlos,
180
00:09:53,900 --> 00:09:57,260
you are the only five cooking
in the elimination challenge,
181
00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,740
which means one of you
will be eliminated.
182
00:10:00,580 --> 00:10:02,000
I was really disappointed.
183
00:10:02,420 --> 00:10:04,900
There's five of us in this
elimination challenge.
184
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:06,800
Our chances of losing are doubled.
185
00:10:10,940 --> 00:10:12,720
For this elimination challenge,
186
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:14,460
you'll be cooking Thanksgiving dinner.
187
00:10:14,460 --> 00:10:18,080
Your challenge is to use the time
-honored Thanksgiving ingredients
188
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:22,120
and reinvent them for a cutting
-edge Thanksgiving dinner.
189
00:10:22,500 --> 00:10:25,460
It is very oxymoronic
that we have to make
190
00:10:25,460 --> 00:10:28,580
a cutting-edge Thanksgiving dinner.
191
00:10:29,380 --> 00:10:32,080
Those are two things that
are diametrically opposed.
192
00:10:32,680 --> 00:10:34,500
Which you'll serve to ask the judges
193
00:10:34,500 --> 00:10:36,500
and the other five chefs.
194
00:10:39,180 --> 00:10:40,440
To make it even worse,
195
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:44,200
the five losers get to
make Thanksgiving dinner
196
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,360
for the five winners.
197
00:10:46,980 --> 00:10:49,840
The number of courses and how
you serve them is up to you.
198
00:10:50,100 --> 00:10:52,580
You also have to work
out which one of you
199
00:10:52,580 --> 00:10:55,000
takes responsibility for
which part of the meal.
200
00:10:55,860 --> 00:10:59,800
You will be judged on your
individual contribution to the meal,
201
00:11:00,090 --> 00:11:02,520
and one of you will be eliminated.
202
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,360
You have one hour to prep
this evening in the laws,
203
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:08,700
and then tomorrow you'll have four hours
204
00:11:08,700 --> 00:11:10,220
to work before dinner time.
205
00:11:12,300 --> 00:11:13,880
So you five winning chefs,
206
00:11:14,340 --> 00:11:16,580
as a prize you get to
relax this afternoon.
207
00:11:17,020 --> 00:11:19,260
You'll drop off the rest of
this food at the food bank,
208
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,020
and then you can play,
209
00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,540
while the others have to
slave over our hot stores.
210
00:11:24,460 --> 00:11:25,380
I do feel bad for those guys.
211
00:11:25,740 --> 00:11:26,860
That's a tough group to be in,
212
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:28,260
to every man for themselves.
213
00:11:28,460 --> 00:11:29,080
Someone's going home.
214
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:30,160
All right, you guys.
215
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:31,900
Better get busy.
216
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:33,520
We'll see you tomorrow at the loft.
217
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:34,040
Good luck.
218
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:37,780
All right, guys.
219
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:39,340
Let's figure out the menu for this.
220
00:11:39,680 --> 00:11:43,040
We have an hour in the kitchen
to decide on our dishes
221
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:44,720
and then start to pull,
222
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,060
because we are going to
be cooking at the loft.
223
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,500
Can we just talk about what
we definitely have to have?
224
00:11:49,540 --> 00:11:50,190
We have to have the turkey.
225
00:11:51,140 --> 00:11:51,200
Yes.
226
00:11:51,580 --> 00:11:52,420
Yeah, that's an entree.
227
00:11:53,500 --> 00:11:53,900
Stuffing.
228
00:11:54,140 --> 00:11:56,140
How about twice potato entree?
229
00:11:56,460 --> 00:11:56,560
Very deserved.
230
00:11:56,660 --> 00:11:57,720
Yes, but the entree.
231
00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:58,000
The entree.
232
00:11:59,420 --> 00:11:59,900
No, no, no, no.
233
00:11:59,940 --> 00:12:02,060
At the beginning, I tried
to initiate something like,
234
00:12:02,060 --> 00:12:04,600
hey, I cook Thanksgiving every year, man.
235
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,560
There's too many eagles
on that team, you know?
236
00:12:06,820 --> 00:12:07,960
Right, so we just do a family style,
237
00:12:08,100 --> 00:12:09,860
bust out dishes, put it on a plate,
238
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,180
because that's Thanksgiving, you know?
239
00:12:11,340 --> 00:12:12,800
Family style's a horrible idea.
240
00:12:12,980 --> 00:12:13,880
It's cutting edge, dude.
241
00:12:14,060 --> 00:12:14,800
It's cutting edge.
242
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:16,860
But, dude, you want to
make it cutting edge?
243
00:12:17,140 --> 00:12:19,080
We can get a chicken,
a duck, and a turkey
244
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,700
and make it into like a
turkey chicken duck lasagna.
245
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:24,400
No, I think...
246
00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:25,460
Okay, I make a rule.
247
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:27,440
You can only talk if you have
the pepper mill in your hand.
248
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,420
I think that we should do
plated soup, plated salad,
249
00:12:30,420 --> 00:12:33,760
plated dessert, and family
style Thanksgiving dinner.
250
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:35,280
That's too much food.
251
00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:37,180
Thanksgiving's so heavy.
252
00:12:37,820 --> 00:12:39,880
I mean, we were trying to sit
around and figure this stuff out.
253
00:12:40,020 --> 00:12:40,960
Betty wants to be the leader,
254
00:12:41,060 --> 00:12:42,880
but she doesn't want anyone
to tell her what to do.
255
00:12:42,980 --> 00:12:44,850
I know how to come up with good ideas
256
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:46,480
and put a twist on things,
257
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,260
but they don't want to give me a chance.
258
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:49,040
Fourth course.
259
00:12:49,740 --> 00:12:50,300
Any suggestions?
260
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:52,860
I suggested that we work as a team
261
00:12:52,860 --> 00:12:55,760
and do a fourth course menu.
262
00:12:55,980 --> 00:12:56,800
Everybody has a say.
263
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:58,180
We all decide on every course.
264
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,060
I don't see it being done that way.
265
00:13:00,900 --> 00:13:02,480
Unfortunately, that idea was shot down.
266
00:13:02,780 --> 00:13:04,680
Let me throw out my ideas, okay?
267
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,640
For the soup, I was thinking with
like an egg custard at the bottom,
268
00:13:07,820 --> 00:13:09,080
maybe like a bacon custard,
269
00:13:09,420 --> 00:13:12,260
maybe make like a bacon custard
or like a nutmeg custard
270
00:13:12,260 --> 00:13:13,090
or like a cinnamon custard.
271
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:14,060
I'll do the soup.
272
00:13:16,140 --> 00:13:16,680
Oh, my gosh.
273
00:13:17,180 --> 00:13:17,940
That's such a mess.
274
00:13:18,660 --> 00:13:20,480
I'm really mad with this decision today.
275
00:13:20,620 --> 00:13:24,400
I'm just devastated, completely
demotivated at this point.
276
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:25,940
This is like a slap in your face.
277
00:13:26,210 --> 00:13:27,440
What kind of soup are you gonna make?
278
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,240
Probably I'll just give
them a shot of vinegar.
279
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,210
I don't want any kamikaze action.
280
00:13:32,580 --> 00:13:35,660
I'm concerned that Ellia is gonna
bust out like suicidal maneuver
281
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:37,380
and I would hate to see that happen.
282
00:13:37,660 --> 00:13:38,780
Ellia is doing soup.
283
00:13:38,980 --> 00:13:40,440
I'm gonna do a salad and dessert.
284
00:13:40,500 --> 00:13:41,480
No, you cannot do both.
285
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:42,560
You wanna do salad?
286
00:13:42,740 --> 00:13:43,280
You have to delete it.
287
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:44,900
Is that what you would like to do?
288
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:45,520
Not really.
289
00:13:45,740 --> 00:13:47,320
Not really, but I'll
throw something together.
290
00:13:47,820 --> 00:13:51,680
I have a clear game plan for
remaining in this competition.
291
00:13:52,900 --> 00:13:55,260
Middle, safe, is fine with me.
292
00:14:02,850 --> 00:14:04,470
I do that or I do mushrooms too.
293
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,140
I think mushroom would be
lovely with what we're serving,
294
00:14:07,380 --> 00:14:08,360
but this is your dish.
295
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:09,640
Truly do, apparently.
296
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:11,850
I'm gonna make the cheese with it.
297
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:19,360
Ellia started to lose it a little.
298
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:22,600
What's the point of staying?
299
00:14:33,700 --> 00:14:35,840
Ready, Carlos, Mike
and I are going to Wild
300
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,840
Oats to shop for our
ingredients, while Ellia
301
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,900
is going to Charlie's Fixtures
to shop for plates, sauceboats...
302
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,860
This is an extremely
difficult challenge because
303
00:14:46,860 --> 00:14:49,440
we're trying to take the most traditional
304
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:54,760
American holiday, Thanksgiving, and
put like this cutting-edge twist on it.
305
00:14:55,220 --> 00:14:56,880
Carlos, you just kind of
roam in for your stuff?
306
00:14:57,420 --> 00:15:01,400
I am thinking butternut
squash, fall flavors,
307
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,460
pumpkin seeds, and I'm
trying to formulate
308
00:15:04,460 --> 00:15:07,980
a way to integrate those into a salad.
309
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,200
Do you have fresh honeycomb?
310
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,880
I decide I'm going to go the extra mile,
so I'm going to make a twice-baked potato.
311
00:15:15,100 --> 00:15:17,780
I'm going to put out a cheese plate,
and I'm going to put out a cannape.
312
00:15:18,060 --> 00:15:19,660
Someone's going to go
home out of us five.
313
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,440
If I rock three solid dishes, I'm
definitely not going to go home.
314
00:15:23,780 --> 00:15:24,680
It's about 10 pounds.
315
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:25,980
No, it's going to be
too big on the table.
316
00:15:26,500 --> 00:15:27,610
Let's take them here.
317
00:15:27,860 --> 00:15:28,500
Wait, wait, wait.
318
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:30,940
It's too big, too big on the table.
319
00:15:31,060 --> 00:15:31,240
It's fast, man.
320
00:15:31,380 --> 00:15:32,000
It's fast, man.
321
00:15:32,420 --> 00:15:34,420
My plan of attack for
Thanksgiving Day is to
322
00:15:34,420 --> 00:15:36,640
blow away the judges
and do an avant-garde
323
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:36,980
twist.
324
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:38,760
Cranberry jelly with cranberry foam.
325
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:40,240
I'm taking stuffing.
326
00:15:40,460 --> 00:15:42,660
You know, stuffing it inside
the turkey was nice roulade.
327
00:15:43,020 --> 00:15:44,720
I'm just trying to use
cutting-edge techniques.
328
00:15:46,700 --> 00:15:53,440
I decide to do a chai pumpkin pie creme brulee
with a chocolate hazelnut creme brulee.
329
00:15:53,930 --> 00:15:58,900
That sounds to me like the perfect ending
for a cutting-edge Thanksgiving dinner.
330
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:00,920
I'm also going to get some
of this ground turkey.
331
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:02,020
It's fine.
332
00:16:04,100 --> 00:16:08,620
Where did you find the queso
fresco at the Wild Oats?
333
00:16:08,780 --> 00:16:11,270
I bought the cheese that
was in the salad bar.
334
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:12,880
Salad bar.
335
00:16:13,260 --> 00:16:13,980
Thank you, sweetheart.
Bye Carlitos
336
00:16:14,460 --> 00:16:19,400
I'll take four of these ones.
337
00:16:20,100 --> 00:16:20,420
Four?
338
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:26,200
I know what good food tastes like and
I know what bad food tastes like, too.
339
00:16:26,700 --> 00:16:28,240
So when I saw the decision of the judges,
340
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:33,060
I was like, okay, is
there any point for me
341
00:16:33,060 --> 00:16:34,760
to cook?
342
00:16:34,784 --> 00:16:36,784
Bigger than that
343
00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:39,680
That's you, okay?
344
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:39,980
Yeah.
345
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:41,360
That's good.
346
00:16:41,820 --> 00:16:42,420
That's very good.
347
00:16:50,700 --> 00:16:53,360
We are going to take
the canned goods to the
348
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,500
food bank, which I'm
really excited about.
349
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:59,560
Because when I was 13,
my family had some,
350
00:16:59,980 --> 00:17:02,280
we had some problems
and my mom and I ended
351
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:02,840
up homeless.
352
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:05,520
I know how important the food
bank is to a lot of people.
353
00:17:05,940 --> 00:17:06,060
Hey, man.
354
00:17:06,340 --> 00:17:06,460
Hey.
355
00:17:08,140 --> 00:17:08,880
How are you? We had some
extra food, thought you guys could use it.
356
00:17:08,980 --> 00:17:09,580
We sure could.
357
00:17:09,740 --> 00:17:10,150
This is great.
358
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:11,560
Turkey, we're getting
ready for the season.
359
00:17:11,780 --> 00:17:11,920
There you go.
360
00:17:12,180 --> 00:17:12,280
Wonderful.
361
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:13,680
We'll take these in.
362
00:17:13,900 --> 00:17:13,940
Awesome.
363
00:17:14,300 --> 00:17:14,480
Thanks, man.
364
00:17:14,620 --> 00:17:14,840
Thank you.
365
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,100
Anytime that somebody can
give back to a homeless
366
00:17:17,100 --> 00:17:21,100
person or to an
underprivileged family, it's
367
00:17:21,100 --> 00:17:21,740
very important.
368
00:17:22,120 --> 00:17:25,920
And we in the restaurant industry have
such a great opportunity to do that.
369
00:17:26,140 --> 00:17:26,540
Thank you, guys.
370
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:27,620
Thank you.
371
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:29,720
Take care.
372
00:17:29,980 --> 00:17:30,660
Take care.
373
00:17:30,940 --> 00:17:31,480
Thank you.
374
00:17:39,120 --> 00:17:40,320
Thank you.
375
00:17:40,980 --> 00:17:43,240
We have two kitchens to work with.
376
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:48,380
An hour of prep the first day to be followed
by four hours of prep the second day.
377
00:17:52,300 --> 00:17:55,880
I'm so glad we cleaned our apartments.
378
00:17:56,420 --> 00:17:58,280
How about if Marcel
and Mike, you guys work
379
00:17:58,280 --> 00:17:59,820
in the other kitchen,
you guys are cool with
380
00:17:59,820 --> 00:18:00,020
that?
381
00:18:00,260 --> 00:18:00,520
Yeah, that's fine.
382
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:02,040
See you all later.
383
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,380
Marcel and Betty don't get along and
I don't really want to work with her.
384
00:18:06,540 --> 00:18:08,100
She likes to take control.
385
00:18:08,100 --> 00:18:12,240
It assumes you don't have any skills
and so we went to work in a room.
386
00:18:14,580 --> 00:18:17,000
This is like a nice,
sanitary place to cook.
387
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,400
I'd throw up if I knew food
came out of this place.
388
00:18:20,380 --> 00:18:20,920
It's gross.
389
00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,940
I was like ass and cigarettes in here.
390
00:18:24,260 --> 00:18:25,520
You should have seen
it when I came in here.
391
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:29,140
It was like deodorant and necklaces
and toothbrush and toothpaste.
392
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,220
All that just like sitting out.
393
00:18:31,540 --> 00:18:34,460
I've already blown 15
minutes into my prep
394
00:18:34,460 --> 00:18:37,220
time and the kitchen
is not prepared to be
395
00:18:37,220 --> 00:18:38,360
cooked in at all.
396
00:18:38,620 --> 00:18:40,580
There's toiletries all
over the countertops.
397
00:18:40,820 --> 00:18:43,060
I take everything and I
put it over in the corner.
398
00:18:45,180 --> 00:18:45,980
How much time do we have?
399
00:18:46,740 --> 00:18:47,760
Like 30 minutes.
400
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,680
I have just been so pissy since
this happened this morning.
401
00:18:51,940 --> 00:18:52,280
Me too.
402
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:53,700
It makes me angry too, Betty.
403
00:18:54,500 --> 00:18:57,140
Maybe it's my ego being put
chosen in the bottom five.
404
00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:59,220
Betty, this has nothing to do with ego.
405
00:18:59,900 --> 00:19:01,880
I can take criticism when it's fair.
406
00:19:02,360 --> 00:19:04,620
I'm just really, really, really upset.
407
00:19:04,620 --> 00:19:07,120
In my school, they taught
me not to lick the whisk.
408
00:19:10,220 --> 00:19:11,020
All the spatula.
409
00:19:11,700 --> 00:19:14,520
Elia started to lose it a little bit.
410
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:18,940
Make sure you have chocolate everywhere.
411
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:20,940
Elia has it.
412
00:19:21,360 --> 00:19:23,680
A chocolate meltdown, no pun intended.
413
00:19:29,940 --> 00:19:35,380
It is the perfect comic
relief for this frustrated,
414
00:19:36,140 --> 00:19:40,940
rambunctious, angry, confusion
that we're dealing with.
415
00:19:41,180 --> 00:19:42,760
It can't open my eyes though.
416
00:19:43,460 --> 00:19:43,900
Am I warmer?
417
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:45,540
This is the professionalism.
418
00:19:49,290 --> 00:19:50,100
Ten minutes.
419
00:19:50,100 --> 00:19:51,840
Are you f***ing kidding me?
420
00:19:55,060 --> 00:19:56,520
These cameras are like floating.
421
00:19:57,860 --> 00:19:59,340
I didn't anticipate that.
422
00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:00,080
Time?
423
00:20:00,620 --> 00:20:01,740
I'm going next door, dude.
424
00:20:13,470 --> 00:20:16,180
Two to have a day off,
I think is awesome.
425
00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:20,400
I think there's going to be some animosity
from the other group, definitely.
426
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:25,650
There was a bunch of stuff that was on the
table, like toothbrushes, toiletry bags,
427
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:27,580
and I just took all that s***
and threw it on the floor.
428
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:29,540
It's all like in one pile on the floor.
429
00:20:30,580 --> 00:20:33,380
Marcel only cares about himself, and
it's really hard to work with him.
430
00:20:33,580 --> 00:20:36,820
He seems to think that he's a
cut above from everybody else.
431
00:20:37,260 --> 00:20:39,080
Your roommate threw your f***ing
toiletries on the ground.
432
00:20:39,220 --> 00:20:42,340
If that kid was my roommate and threw
my toiletries on the ground, man.
433
00:20:42,820 --> 00:20:44,560
I haven't dealt with that situation yet.
434
00:20:44,890 --> 00:20:49,260
I go back to the room to discover that,
yes, my toothbrush was on the floor,
435
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,140
so I'm a little boiling at this point.
436
00:20:51,940 --> 00:20:53,270
I want you to look into my eyes.
437
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:56,280
If you ever touch
anything personal of mine,
438
00:20:56,760 --> 00:21:00,140
I will beat you so bad that your
mother will not recognize you.
439
00:21:00,460 --> 00:21:02,680
That wasn't cool. Don't let it happen.
440
00:21:04,940 --> 00:21:06,660
I'm just chilling with
all the other chefs
441
00:21:06,660 --> 00:21:09,390
when Frank comes up
like a crazy wildebeest,
442
00:21:09,940 --> 00:21:10,920
flaring his nostrils.
443
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:12,050
What are you talking about?
444
00:21:12,060 --> 00:21:13,180
My toothbrush on the floor?
445
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:16,880
I thought I put it in your toiletry bag.
446
00:21:18,220 --> 00:21:21,420
I guess I'm probably not
Frank's favorite at this point.
447
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,640
It's gotten beyond food, and it's
getting a little bit personal.
448
00:21:30,180 --> 00:21:32,460
What kind of crap house
are you running in?
449
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:33,720
This is an atrocity.
450
00:21:33,980 --> 00:21:34,600
Ah, God.
451
00:21:46,700 --> 00:21:50,360
So it's Thanksgiving morning, and
we've got like four hours to bang out.
452
00:21:50,420 --> 00:21:53,260
Thanksgiving in a dorm room?
453
00:21:53,340 --> 00:21:54,860
It's like totally hairy.
454
00:21:54,980 --> 00:21:57,240
I don't even want to think about
the fact that it's an elimination.
455
00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:59,220
What do you think before?
Let's go over to the table.
456
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:00,540
What do you think before, Elia?
457
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:08,560
I wake up today, and I'm just not
very into the whole challenge.
458
00:22:09,100 --> 00:22:11,540
I'm thankful because I have
completely caused my challenge.
459
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:13,500
So thankful.
460
00:22:15,700 --> 00:22:16,520
All right, what's the word?
461
00:22:17,980 --> 00:22:20,380
The timer starts. We've
got our four hours to cook.
462
00:22:20,620 --> 00:22:21,860
I've got a lot of work to do.
463
00:22:22,140 --> 00:22:26,080
It was relatively quiet in the kitchen
because I needed to concentrate.
464
00:22:26,300 --> 00:22:28,040
I think that Mike was
also pretty focused.
465
00:22:28,660 --> 00:22:31,000
So you're doing twice
baked and mashers, or what?
466
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:32,160
Yeah.
467
00:22:33,540 --> 00:22:36,240
I'm doing a twice baked potato shrimp, a
468
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:39,320
turkey canopé, and corn,
and a cheese plate.
469
00:22:39,420 --> 00:22:42,260
Five things. I'm going to
knock it all down. No problem.
470
00:22:43,420 --> 00:22:45,580
Dude, I'm going to be
cutting it so close.
471
00:22:46,180 --> 00:22:47,460
It's 15 minutes into it.
472
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:48,760
What do you think
they're doing next door?
473
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:56,840
My prep day consists of
concentrating on the salad.
474
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:01,060
So for the four hours, I really
try to dedicate myself to my salad.
475
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,080
Elia, you're awfully quiet.
How's the soup coming?
476
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,040
It is coming dandy.
477
00:23:07,020 --> 00:23:09,000
This oven must be lower than normal.
478
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:12,520
I'm having a little bit of
trouble getting my creme brulees
479
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:17,340
to be the exact consistency
that I would like them to be.
480
00:23:17,820 --> 00:23:20,560
I'm going to put it for another
20 minutes. I think it'll be good.
481
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,920
When the other half of the group
were back at home, cooking away,
482
00:23:28,020 --> 00:23:31,940
we went over to the Soap Hotel
to Simon LA to have breakfast.
483
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:33,620
Cheers, guys.
484
00:23:33,980 --> 00:23:34,080
Cheers.
485
00:23:34,740 --> 00:23:36,360
They're not cooking tea day dinner.
486
00:23:36,420 --> 00:23:36,600
Yeah.
487
00:23:36,740 --> 00:23:39,180
Do you think they
picked the leader or no?
488
00:23:39,660 --> 00:23:42,940
No, I think Marcel pretty much separated
himself from the rest of the group
489
00:23:42,940 --> 00:23:44,760
and is doing whatever
Marcel is going to do.
490
00:23:44,980 --> 00:23:46,600
I think Marcel being
totally separate from
491
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,520
everybody, I think it
could be to his advantage.
492
00:23:49,860 --> 00:23:51,660
It's going to have to be
some level of camaraderie,
493
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:53,480
otherwise the whole meal
is going to be a disaster.
494
00:23:57,180 --> 00:23:59,200
What are you guys cooking?
What are you working on?
495
00:24:00,220 --> 00:24:02,240
I am working in chopping my mushrooms.
496
00:24:02,980 --> 00:24:03,720
For the mushrooms for?
497
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,040
For a mushroom soup.
498
00:24:06,660 --> 00:24:06,680
Okay.
499
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:08,640
Can I ask you a question?
500
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:09,440
Okay.
501
00:24:10,220 --> 00:24:12,200
Why did you like yesterday
about Clif's dish?
502
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:13,020
Clif's dish?
503
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:13,520
To understand.
504
00:24:14,340 --> 00:24:15,200
I actually thought it was pretty good.
505
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:15,700
Really?
506
00:24:16,120 --> 00:24:16,320
Yeah.
507
00:24:16,580 --> 00:24:17,120
What about it?
508
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:18,340
I spit it out.
509
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:22,260
I was very in shock with the decision.
510
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:22,680
Really?
511
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,340
Really, really, really. I'm
just being sincere here.
512
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,860
It's really good. You had
to try the whole thing.
513
00:24:28,260 --> 00:24:31,580
I was so mad and demotivated.
514
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,780
But if you're saying that you
really like the flavors...
515
00:24:35,780 --> 00:24:37,520
I guess part of it was
judging on how it tastes,
516
00:24:37,700 --> 00:24:39,180
but also judging on how
the products were used.
517
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:40,000
I thought it was good.
518
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:41,060
Okay.
519
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:45,260
This made me realize
that she's being honest.
520
00:24:45,580 --> 00:24:47,640
We just have complete different palates.
521
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,460
I let all the obsteteness get over me.
522
00:24:51,740 --> 00:24:55,720
I respect this man, and he's my judge,
and I have to stick with his decisions.
523
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,140
You're going to have
a lovely Thanksgiving.
524
00:24:58,480 --> 00:24:58,660
Bye.
525
00:24:59,060 --> 00:24:59,580
Bye-bye.
526
00:24:59,580 --> 00:25:00,200
See you later.
527
00:25:01,620 --> 00:25:04,240
I'm going to make it look beautiful
and taste the best as I can.
528
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:05,920
I really want them to enjoy the meal.
529
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:20,280
And conceptually, you know, I was the
only one who understood the challenge.
530
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,480
Trying to utilize
cutting-edge techniques.
531
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:24,180
I'm feeling pretty good.
532
00:25:24,360 --> 00:25:29,220
My salad wasn't my best performance, but
it wasn't as bad as Michael's side dishes.
533
00:25:29,220 --> 00:25:30,200
Phase, phase, phase.
534
00:25:31,850 --> 00:25:35,760
Carlos is doing a salad, so we
go up on the chopping block.
535
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,540
I know for a fact that,
Carlos, what did you do?
536
00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:39,840
You want me to salad?
537
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:41,660
He sat himself up to go home.
538
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:44,080
You go out.
539
00:25:44,620 --> 00:25:46,400
Fifteen minutes later, salad goes out.
540
00:25:46,500 --> 00:25:47,170
Is that what we're suggesting?
541
00:25:49,360 --> 00:25:51,280
I brought our dinner guest with us.
542
00:25:51,500 --> 00:25:53,180
Obviously, Tony doesn't
need an introduction.
543
00:25:53,360 --> 00:25:53,800
Not at all.
544
00:25:54,300 --> 00:25:55,720
Author of Kitchen Confidential.
545
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:57,600
Personally, I totally look after the guy.
546
00:25:57,780 --> 00:25:59,860
He's not scared to tell
someone their food sucks.
547
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:01,540
Just hope he doesn't tell me I suck.
548
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,640
Yeah, looking forward to an
inspiring Thanksgiving dinner.
549
00:26:05,020 --> 00:26:05,920
We'll catch up to the dinner table.
550
00:26:06,420 --> 00:26:07,980
Man, do you cook for
Anthony Bourdain, you know?
551
00:26:08,120 --> 00:26:09,740
He's a pretty tough critic, though, man.
552
00:26:18,660 --> 00:26:21,360
When Chef Anthony Bourdain walks
into the room, we're totally shocked.
553
00:26:21,540 --> 00:26:23,460
It is huge to be able to sit
and have a meal with him.
554
00:26:23,460 --> 00:26:25,900
I'm very happy that I'm not
cooking Thanksgiving dinner.
555
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:26,800
Awesome!
556
00:26:29,060 --> 00:26:31,380
Looking forward to smashing the
hopes and dreams and ambitions.
557
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,140
Yes! Awesome.
558
00:26:34,660 --> 00:26:35,160
All right.
559
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:36,840
So I'm the first dish to go out.
560
00:26:36,940 --> 00:26:37,740
I feel pretty good.
561
00:26:37,900 --> 00:26:39,280
I made this killer little can of egg.
562
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:41,000
I knew everyone was going to like it.
563
00:26:41,120 --> 00:26:41,620
All right.
564
00:26:41,860 --> 00:26:43,820
So I just got a little can of egg.
565
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:45,280
It's turkey meat.
566
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:46,960
Kind of a little spin on deviled egg.
567
00:26:47,380 --> 00:26:48,100
Happy Thanksgiving.
568
00:26:48,620 --> 00:26:49,280
Thank you very much.
569
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:50,040
It's a pleasure to serve you.
570
00:26:50,300 --> 00:26:50,860
It's really tasty.
571
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:52,120
It was really fun.
572
00:26:52,120 --> 00:26:53,140
Tons of flavor.
573
00:26:54,140 --> 00:26:55,900
Mine is the first main dish to go out.
574
00:26:56,140 --> 00:26:57,100
It was very nerve-wracking.
575
00:26:58,180 --> 00:26:58,700
Hello there.
576
00:26:59,060 --> 00:27:01,440
Here we have a roasted butternut squash
577
00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:04,640
with chipotle queso fresco on top.
578
00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:05,540
Enjoy.
579
00:27:06,820 --> 00:27:07,380
Where's the lamb?
580
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:09,300
It's a bunch of masculine greens.
581
00:27:09,660 --> 00:27:11,140
The onions, most of them are burnt.
582
00:27:11,660 --> 00:27:14,440
I'm just not quite sure
I get the dish at all.
583
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:14,900
It's limp.
584
00:27:15,460 --> 00:27:15,800
It's really...
585
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:16,640
It's unattractive.
586
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,080
I'm just really nervous at this point
587
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,080
because just the idea of going home
588
00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:24,400
makes me really sad.
589
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:25,720
Hi.
590
00:27:26,020 --> 00:27:27,370
This is my first Thanksgiving.
591
00:27:28,100 --> 00:27:30,740
I made a mushroom cream with portobello
592
00:27:30,740 --> 00:27:33,480
and button mushrooms with the knots,
593
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:34,320
chives.
594
00:27:34,820 --> 00:27:35,830
I hope you enjoy it.
595
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:37,660
I'm liking the taste of this thing.
596
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:38,640
I like the water.
597
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:39,220
I love the texture.
598
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:40,220
I love the nuttiness.
599
00:27:40,700 --> 00:27:41,540
They complement mushrooms.
600
00:27:43,380 --> 00:27:46,460
I made a turkey roulade,
601
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,200
which is utilizing the
breast meat on the exterior.
602
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,920
The next ring inside would be the thigh.
603
00:27:52,300 --> 00:27:53,780
And then lastly, the
stuffing is in the center.
604
00:27:54,100 --> 00:27:55,840
And then a cranberry
jelly with a cranberry.
605
00:27:56,500 --> 00:27:57,240
Good job.
606
00:28:00,580 --> 00:28:01,460
The roulade itself,
607
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:03,200
for the turkey at the time,
608
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,220
should be a little bit
more bang for its buck.
609
00:28:05,700 --> 00:28:06,340
It's very dry.
610
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:07,820
I think there's way too much cranberry.
611
00:28:08,620 --> 00:28:09,520
A bit too tart.
612
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,570
Marcel's plate has been a mirror image
613
00:28:12,140 --> 00:28:14,800
of every plate that he's done
in this whole competition.
614
00:28:15,180 --> 00:28:16,080
I can't stand the little punk.
615
00:28:16,820 --> 00:28:17,960
I don't mind the roulade.
616
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,220
I think we asked him to
do something cutting out.
617
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:20,920
It's cutting out.
618
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:22,140
It's too dry,
619
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:27,170
but I kind of like that he's had
the balls to go this far out.
620
00:28:27,580 --> 00:28:28,500
As for a boy has balls.
621
00:28:28,700 --> 00:28:29,280
He did something.
622
00:28:29,460 --> 00:28:30,020
He took a stand, yeah.
623
00:28:31,380 --> 00:28:32,040
All right.
624
00:28:32,740 --> 00:28:34,560
I didn't know how you
guys like the potatoes,
625
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:37,660
so I made something with shrimp
and did the parsnip mash.
626
00:28:38,300 --> 00:28:40,560
So, Mike, you did all
of these sides, right?
627
00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:40,980
Yeah.
628
00:28:41,660 --> 00:28:41,920
Enjoy.
629
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:44,600
This is an atrocity.
630
00:28:45,380 --> 00:28:47,860
Two potatoes, I mean,
and it's all white, too.
631
00:28:47,860 --> 00:28:50,800
I mean, are there any fundamentals
that have not been broken
632
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:52,880
in a non-creative, non-heavy way?
633
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,260
What kind of crack house
are you running here?
634
00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,880
I'm actually enjoying
the twice-baked potato
635
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:02,540
better than the dry turkey we bought.
636
00:29:03,340 --> 00:29:04,040
Oh, God.
637
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,480
I'm basically done for the day.
638
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,400
And, ass-fatty, what can I do for you?
639
00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:12,040
I want to help.
640
00:29:12,580 --> 00:29:13,220
Is the ginger burning?
641
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:13,840
F***.
642
00:29:14,740 --> 00:29:17,920
I had decided to put
some crystallized ginger
643
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:20,820
and some fresh hazelnut
on top of the pumpkin
644
00:29:20,820 --> 00:29:22,480
and then added the sugar on top.
645
00:29:22,620 --> 00:29:25,620
And when I go to brulee it,
they both start to burn.
646
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:26,460
What do I do?
647
00:29:26,740 --> 00:29:27,440
Take off the ginger.
648
00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,360
Hello, it's sugar time.
649
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:31,220
Okay.
650
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:33,500
For Thanksgiving dessert today,
651
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:37,160
we have a very unique
pumpkin pie with chai,
652
00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:40,440
creme brulee, a chocolate creme brulee
653
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,040
with the essence of hazelnut.
654
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:44,340
And, to finish it all off,
655
00:29:44,660 --> 00:29:46,680
a shot of French roast coffee
656
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:48,980
with a touch of vanilla whipped cream.
657
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:52,620
For me, the beauty of eating creme brulee
658
00:29:52,620 --> 00:29:54,440
is that the sugar glaze just cracks
659
00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:55,720
and you get that crispy sugar.
660
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:56,920
I'm really missing that.
661
00:29:57,220 --> 00:29:59,920
A custard with sugar over
the top is not creme brulee.
662
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,380
I think what's happened here
663
00:30:02,380 --> 00:30:03,780
is what's happened throughout the meal,
664
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:05,760
a complete failure of the imagination.
665
00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:08,670
I mean, this, four hours?
666
00:30:09,780 --> 00:30:10,400
Four hours?
667
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:11,200
This?
668
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:14,440
A little cheese platter.
669
00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:15,320
More?
670
00:30:15,660 --> 00:30:15,900
More.
671
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:19,300
So it's Applewood Cheddar,
672
00:30:19,620 --> 00:30:24,440
Gouda, Port-Salut, Parmesan, Brie.
Enjoy
673
00:30:24,580 --> 00:30:25,320
Thank you, Michael.
674
00:30:25,780 --> 00:30:26,400
I like cheese.
675
00:30:27,020 --> 00:30:27,840
I love cheese.
676
00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:29,840
But why are we eating it now?
677
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:31,540
Desperation.
678
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:33,000
It should be before dessert.
679
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:33,880
The mission was what?
680
00:30:34,580 --> 00:30:35,700
Stretch the boundaries?
681
00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:37,000
Push the envelope?
682
00:30:38,900 --> 00:30:46,400
No.
683
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:47,140
It's a yes or no question.
684
00:30:47,300 --> 00:30:48,260
No, sit the f*** down.
685
00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:49,540
If you're asking me a question,
686
00:30:49,740 --> 00:30:50,760
let me tell you the answer.
687
00:30:59,580 --> 00:31:01,200
So how was your Thanksgiving dinner?
688
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:03,420
No one really took a chance.
689
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:04,860
Nobody stepped up.
690
00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:07,180
Nobody really delivered at the end.
691
00:31:08,100 --> 00:31:10,110
You know, the challenge was
take the traditional
692
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:13,340
flavors of Thanksgiving.
And put a twist on it.
693
00:31:13,780 --> 00:31:14,720
Make it modern.
694
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:15,320
Make it special.
695
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:16,160
Make it different.
696
00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,100
It's just disappointing to see a salad.
697
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:19,340
It's easy. Come on.
698
00:31:19,780 --> 00:31:20,600
The first dish was Carlos.
699
00:31:21,380 --> 00:31:23,900
Now, people may think that
salad is a no-brainer,
700
00:31:24,020 --> 00:31:26,360
but great salads take
a lot of imagination.
701
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:28,740
To go with something as pedestrian
702
00:31:29,540 --> 00:31:31,520
as, I'm guessing, bagged mezcla.
703
00:31:31,780 --> 00:31:32,900
It was just really lame.
704
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:34,020
And what about Elia?
705
00:31:34,220 --> 00:31:35,920
Her soup was actually very tasty.
706
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:37,230
It had the right texture.
707
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,020
Just got a tremendous
amount of flavor out of it.
708
00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:39,880
I thought it was good.
709
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:40,960
Well, I have to say that
710
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:42,440
it might not have been very avant-garde.
711
00:31:42,580 --> 00:31:45,200
We've all tasted millions of
cream of mushroom soup before.
712
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:47,960
But because so many of the other
dishes were such a disaster,
713
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:50,360
I was really excited to eat
something that at least was tasty.
714
00:31:50,540 --> 00:31:53,430
The decision to go with it
showed the most chefly qualities.
715
00:31:53,980 --> 00:31:55,800
I would just like to see her
push those limits a little bit.
716
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:58,230
I thought the roulade
was at least adventurous.
717
00:31:58,700 --> 00:32:01,900
I think that Marcel needs to be
given some credit for his dish.
718
00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,640
I thought that he definitely
pushed the boundary.
719
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:05,660
I think it looked great.
720
00:32:05,820 --> 00:32:06,500
The color was beautiful.
721
00:32:06,860 --> 00:32:07,980
And I really liked the flavor
722
00:32:07,980 --> 00:32:09,760
of both of the cranberry components.
723
00:32:09,940 --> 00:32:11,600
Because there was no skin on that turkey,
724
00:32:12,020 --> 00:32:13,180
it needed fat on the outside.
725
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:15,200
Baste it with a good amount of fat.
726
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:16,340
Pork fat would have been delicious.
727
00:32:16,340 --> 00:32:17,310
Actually, it wouldn't be fine.
728
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:17,740
Ready?
729
00:32:18,540 --> 00:32:19,440
That wasn't creme brulee.
730
00:32:19,820 --> 00:32:22,560
That was pumpkin pie filling
with burnt sugar on the top.
731
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,040
Just thinking about that
course sends me into a coma.
732
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:27,140
So let's talk about Michael.
733
00:32:27,500 --> 00:32:29,020
We had a nerve to make those dishes.
734
00:32:29,340 --> 00:32:29,880
That's exactly what I'm thinking.
735
00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,160
That was so perverse, so inappropriate.
736
00:32:32,660 --> 00:32:34,420
I'm almost beginning to respect it.
737
00:32:34,620 --> 00:32:36,960
The most enjoyable
single mouthful of food
738
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:38,940
was that twice baked potato.
739
00:32:38,940 --> 00:32:42,120
But again, I failed to
see how mashed potatoes,
740
00:32:42,460 --> 00:32:43,720
twice baked stuffed potato,
741
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:47,940
and corn on the cob rolled
in cheese is cutting edge.
742
00:32:48,460 --> 00:32:51,440
There was more to what he did
than just those three starches.
743
00:32:51,500 --> 00:32:53,560
And I think that we do need
to give him credit for that.
744
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,020
He did the canapé, which I thought
was actually very, very tasty.
745
00:32:56,300 --> 00:32:57,240
I like that cheese plate.
746
00:32:57,700 --> 00:33:00,780
It's like Betty Crocker and
Charles Manson had a love child.
747
00:33:01,140 --> 00:33:02,180
And he's cooking for me.
748
00:33:09,820 --> 00:33:11,580
So we have a decision, yes?
749
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:12,800
Yes.
750
00:33:14,100 --> 00:33:15,940
Okay, let's bring them in.
751
00:33:25,340 --> 00:33:26,640
I'll start with you, Gail.
752
00:33:27,860 --> 00:33:29,260
Was there a leader on this team?
753
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,720
I thought I had some clever
ideas to put a spin on it,
754
00:33:32,740 --> 00:33:33,660
but they were shot down.
755
00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:34,840
What were your ideas?
756
00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,740
I wanted to make like
a turduck and lasagna
757
00:33:37,740 --> 00:33:40,240
and do like a layer of
chicken or duck chicken.
758
00:33:40,380 --> 00:33:41,260
Why didn't you do that?
759
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:42,560
It actually sounds good.
760
00:33:42,860 --> 00:33:43,880
I thought it would be a hit.
761
00:33:43,980 --> 00:33:45,940
It was like instantly shot
down by like three people.
762
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:47,760
We all actually really liked your canapé.
763
00:33:48,060 --> 00:33:50,660
And it was actually a perfect
definition of an Emma's Boosh.
764
00:33:50,940 --> 00:33:51,600
You know how it's a zen?
765
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,160
Well, you did redeem yourself, Michael,
766
00:33:55,420 --> 00:33:57,100
with that amuse-bouche today.
767
00:33:57,740 --> 00:33:59,260
Cutting edge cooking.
768
00:33:59,900 --> 00:34:01,600
Twice baked stuffed potatoes.
769
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:03,880
I don't know, I just thought
by putting some shrimp in it,
770
00:34:03,940 --> 00:34:05,880
maybe, I don't know, I've
never eaten them with shrimp
771
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:08,580
at home, so I was like,
that's a spin, you know?
772
00:34:08,660 --> 00:34:10,940
I love you like a son already, okay?
773
00:34:11,380 --> 00:34:12,160
I admire you.
774
00:34:12,500 --> 00:34:15,880
Your sheer contrariness, your
sheer refusal to conform,
775
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:17,000
I kind of like that.
776
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:17,800
Thank you.
777
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:19,820
Your twice baked potato,
778
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:24,420
in spite of its absolutely
Flintstonian execution,
779
00:34:24,860 --> 00:34:27,720
it was the single, fully most
enjoyable mouthful of food
780
00:34:27,720 --> 00:34:28,720
I had this evening.
781
00:34:29,060 --> 00:34:30,220
The taste, it didn't suck.
782
00:34:30,860 --> 00:34:32,420
Well, thank you.
783
00:34:34,860 --> 00:34:36,100
You did the salad, right?
784
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:37,200
Correct.
785
00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:38,640
Why choose salad?
786
00:34:38,700 --> 00:34:40,120
I didn't choose salad.
787
00:34:40,180 --> 00:34:42,580
That was where everybody
was straying from,
788
00:34:42,700 --> 00:34:44,140
so I decided to grab it by the reins.
789
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:45,620
You didn't have to make a salad.
790
00:34:46,020 --> 00:34:49,080
No, I didn't have to, and I
was very proud of what I did.
791
00:34:49,660 --> 00:34:50,420
I believe it's thanksgiving,
792
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:52,360
and you should be
thankful for your friends
793
00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:53,760
and the food that you have,
794
00:34:53,820 --> 00:34:55,060
because some people don't even have food.
795
00:34:55,540 --> 00:34:56,100
As bad as it is, huh?
796
00:34:56,240 --> 00:34:56,900
Be nice.
797
00:34:58,300 --> 00:34:59,720
What did you spend four hours on?
798
00:34:59,820 --> 00:35:02,180
An hour roasting the squash.
799
00:35:02,500 --> 00:35:06,420
I also cut the mirepoix
for the boys next door.
800
00:35:06,720 --> 00:35:09,100
On four hours, you made
dressing and you roasted squash.
801
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:12,300
Listen, if you're saying
that I sat on my butt
802
00:35:12,300 --> 00:35:13,660
when I was just doing salad,
803
00:35:13,980 --> 00:35:15,620
I was helping out the others as well.
804
00:35:15,620 --> 00:35:16,360
I asked you a question.
805
00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,200
What did you spend four hours on?
806
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:21,880
Arsal, what did you
think about your dish?
807
00:35:22,260 --> 00:35:23,260
I thought it was good conceptually,
808
00:35:23,780 --> 00:35:25,940
but I fell short on execution.
809
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:26,900
Like what?
810
00:35:27,320 --> 00:35:29,060
If I was able to go back
811
00:35:29,060 --> 00:35:31,580
and repoach my roulade,
812
00:35:31,820 --> 00:35:34,860
I would probably do it at
a more gentle temperature,
813
00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:37,760
but, you know, it's tough to do
when you're trying to sous vide
814
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:39,300
without a thermal immersion circulator.
815
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:40,900
You don't need that to do sous vide.
816
00:35:41,580 --> 00:35:42,620
You're making an excuse.
817
00:35:43,980 --> 00:35:44,720
But, I know.
818
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:48,220
Obviously, cutting edge is a
very different meaning to you
819
00:35:48,220 --> 00:35:51,060
than it does to, say,
Carlos or probably Betty.
820
00:35:51,220 --> 00:35:53,320
It was clearly further along conceptually
821
00:35:53,320 --> 00:35:54,680
than some of the other dishes.
822
00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:59,580
Elia, what did you think of your dish?
823
00:35:59,980 --> 00:36:01,260
I really enjoyed mushroom soup,
824
00:36:01,540 --> 00:36:03,440
and I thought the flavors were great.
825
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:05,320
Betty, were you happy with your dish?
826
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,340
I think the brûlée could
have been a lot better.
827
00:36:07,580 --> 00:36:07,780
Why?
828
00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,340
I elicited the help of two other people.
829
00:36:10,780 --> 00:36:13,320
I realized that I should have
done the entire thing myself,
830
00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:15,080
because I know the way
I like to brûlée it,
831
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,640
and that's where my dish failed.
832
00:36:17,980 --> 00:36:19,460
I was very happy with the texture.
833
00:36:19,540 --> 00:36:20,680
I was very happy with the flavors,
834
00:36:20,810 --> 00:36:22,720
but I was not happy with the brûlée.
835
00:36:22,830 --> 00:36:24,700
I mean, I didn't find
it to be a creme brûlée.
836
00:36:24,720 --> 00:36:25,600
You didn't taste the chai.
837
00:36:25,940 --> 00:36:27,400
It was more a pie filling.
838
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:29,100
Yes, it was, yes.
839
00:36:29,220 --> 00:36:29,890
But it's not a creme brûlée.
840
00:36:30,420 --> 00:36:31,520
Just because you stick
something in a vessel
841
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:33,180
and put sugar on the top and burn it,
842
00:36:33,240 --> 00:36:34,220
it doesn't make it a creme brûlée.
843
00:36:35,700 --> 00:36:36,720
How was this cutting edge?
844
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:41,360
The cutting edge is not quite my style.
845
00:36:41,540 --> 00:36:44,220
I do focus more on comfort food.
846
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:49,560
In our mind, there were
two dishes that stood out.
847
00:36:50,970 --> 00:36:52,610
And those two dishes were
848
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:56,500
Alia's mushroom soup and
Marcel's turkey ralade.
849
00:36:57,940 --> 00:36:59,160
Tony, as our guest judge,
850
00:36:59,700 --> 00:37:02,480
who of these two do you
think is the winner tonight?
851
00:37:03,620 --> 00:37:06,180
I admire Marcel's audaciousness.
852
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:09,590
All of the chefs, he took
the assignment seriously.
853
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,700
But the smart, generally most flavorful
854
00:37:13,700 --> 00:37:16,540
and sensible dish was
Alia's I think the soup.
855
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:17,620
It was the winning choice.
856
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:20,060
Thank you.
857
00:37:20,420 --> 00:37:22,540
It feels really good
to win this challenge.
858
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,560
In flavor, I felt really
comfortable in my soup
859
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:26,940
and they went for that.
860
00:37:27,580 --> 00:37:30,240
Even though your soup wasn't
the most cutting edge dish,
861
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:32,780
it was the best executed
and the most delicious,
862
00:37:33,180 --> 00:37:34,140
which counts for a lot.
863
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,320
All right, we have to figure
out who is going home.
864
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:42,800
Betty, you're not going.
865
00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:43,700
Who do you think should go?
866
00:37:44,670 --> 00:37:45,360
I'm not going to say.
867
00:37:45,420 --> 00:37:46,690
You have to make those kinds of decisions
868
00:37:46,700 --> 00:37:49,140
in any kind of leadership
position in a restaurant.
869
00:37:50,720 --> 00:37:51,130
I'll go first.
870
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:53,980
When I was working my ass off today,
871
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:56,340
Carlos made a salad for four hours.
872
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:00,700
Who do you think should go?
873
00:38:02,180 --> 00:38:04,300
Betty's creme brulee was a
little bit lacking today.
874
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:09,180
Betty, now you have Carlos is out, gone.
875
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:10,540
Why?
876
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:12,480
Because I thought it
was the weakest dish.
877
00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:13,900
I don't like Marcel.
878
00:38:14,100 --> 00:38:15,460
Marcel is difficult to work with,
879
00:38:15,460 --> 00:38:16,800
so for that purpose alone,
880
00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,000
I would vote that Marcel be
gone from the competition.
881
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,280
But out of these two, it would be Carlos.
882
00:38:23,580 --> 00:38:25,080
All right, we will talk about this
883
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:26,040
and we'll call you back out.
884
00:38:26,200 --> 00:38:26,620
Thank you.
885
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:39,830
Carlos threw me under the bus again.
886
00:38:41,720 --> 00:38:43,380
They were trying to get Betty to crack
887
00:38:43,380 --> 00:38:44,660
and we weren't leaving until...
888
00:38:44,860 --> 00:38:45,680
I said Marcel.
889
00:38:46,180 --> 00:38:46,960
You chose him to go home?
890
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:47,640
Really?
891
00:38:48,100 --> 00:38:48,400
Mm-hmm.
892
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:48,680
Wow.
893
00:38:49,140 --> 00:38:51,040
I'm still not a fan of his tactics.
894
00:38:51,460 --> 00:38:52,320
Tactics as a person?
895
00:38:52,580 --> 00:38:53,680
Yeah, I still think you're selfish.
896
00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:54,660
Didn't I help you?
897
00:38:55,100 --> 00:38:55,500
Yeah.
898
00:38:56,240 --> 00:38:58,080
Okay, did you ever once ask me for help?
899
00:38:58,340 --> 00:38:59,320
I totally left.
900
00:38:59,340 --> 00:39:01,320
You never once offered to help me.
901
00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:02,040
Mommy!
902
00:39:02,260 --> 00:39:02,340
Brown!
903
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,840
How could you ever tell
me that I'm selfish?
904
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:06,440
Well, let's see.
905
00:39:06,660 --> 00:39:08,820
You came and didn't even
help to set up that kitchen.
906
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:10,780
Did you help me set up my kitchen?
907
00:39:11,060 --> 00:39:12,800
Marcel, I help you all the time.
908
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:14,650
Did you ask me if I needed help today?
909
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:16,300
I told you...
910
00:39:16,300 --> 00:39:16,820
Did you ask me...
911
00:39:16,820 --> 00:39:17,620
It's a yes or no question.
912
00:39:17,940 --> 00:39:18,940
No, it's not a yes or no question.
913
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:19,830
It's an explanation.
914
00:39:20,700 --> 00:39:21,960
So sit the f*** down.
915
00:39:22,140 --> 00:39:23,200
If you're asking me a question,
916
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:24,380
let me tell you the answer.
917
00:39:25,240 --> 00:39:25,660
I'm not sitting.
918
00:39:26,460 --> 00:39:27,560
Did I have to help you?
919
00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,300
No, and actually, I
kind of wish you didn't
920
00:39:30,300 --> 00:39:32,440
because my brulee was one
of the things that sucked.
921
00:39:32,780 --> 00:39:33,540
You blame that on me?
922
00:39:33,700 --> 00:39:35,100
Well, you were the one
of the people who did it.
923
00:39:35,980 --> 00:39:37,220
I thought we were cool.
924
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:38,320
You're still selfish.
925
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:39,960
I'm still not cool with that.
926
00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:41,400
I'm still selfish and
you're still a bitch.
927
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:42,160
You know what?
928
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:43,280
I hope you f***ing go home.
929
00:39:43,780 --> 00:39:44,660
I hope they choose your dish.
930
00:39:47,240 --> 00:39:49,560
We're picking the worst of
three really bad dishes.
931
00:39:49,940 --> 00:39:52,090
You know, Michael's
stuff was inexplicable.
932
00:39:52,660 --> 00:39:53,740
It was so outrageous.
933
00:39:54,140 --> 00:39:55,310
But he did it with some soul
934
00:39:55,460 --> 00:40:00,720
and some kind of maybe
delusional belief in himself.
935
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:01,860
But with Michael, you know,
936
00:40:01,940 --> 00:40:04,080
it's not really making
a name for yourself.
937
00:40:06,820 --> 00:40:08,200
Carlos's dish, I just...
938
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,020
I don't understand why
he picked the salad.
939
00:40:10,020 --> 00:40:12,320
I don't understand why
he picked that salad.
940
00:40:12,660 --> 00:40:14,340
Carlos made no effort.
941
00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:18,340
On a cruise ship with Kathy
Lee yodeling in the background
942
00:40:18,340 --> 00:40:19,500
on a Lido deck,
943
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:23,260
I would expect my salad to
look a little better than that.
944
00:40:24,300 --> 00:40:25,980
So what about Betty's creme brulee's?
945
00:40:26,060 --> 00:40:28,360
She really believed that it
was the best she could do
946
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:29,660
and that she gave it her all.
947
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:31,000
Well, if that's the best you can do,
948
00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:32,960
is this competition for you?
949
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:34,700
No. You know, I don't want to hear this,
950
00:40:34,720 --> 00:40:35,780
I do comfort food.
951
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:37,000
Well, so do I.
952
00:40:37,260 --> 00:40:38,340
That's a poor excuse.
953
00:41:02,240 --> 00:41:06,300
You three are here because yours' were
the worst dishes of this challenge.
954
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:08,940
And one of you is going home.
955
00:41:11,780 --> 00:41:16,500
Nothing was necessarily cutting edge,
but more importantly, nothing was good.
956
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:21,660
And you roll your eyes and think that's
harsh, but you know what, it wasn't good.
957
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:28,640
You know, Michael, conceptually, potato,
potato, corn, nothing cutting edge.
958
00:41:29,380 --> 00:41:30,380
That's why you're here.
959
00:41:30,780 --> 00:41:31,800
I understand.
960
00:41:32,180 --> 00:41:34,880
You know, Carlos, I
don't know why you think
961
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:37,640
that making a green
salad with some butternut
962
00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:39,500
squash on there, that
makes it cutting edge.
963
00:41:40,260 --> 00:41:42,440
We're asking you to try to win this.
964
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,080
Sometimes I get a sense that
you're just trying not to lose.
965
00:41:47,100 --> 00:41:49,000
You know, Betty, you
say that you do comfort
966
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:50,800
food and that's it, but we're asking you
967
00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:51,180
to stretch.
968
00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:53,640
I've seen flavored creme's
brulee for the last 20 years.
969
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:56,220
There's nothing cutting
edge about it, and
970
00:41:56,220 --> 00:41:58,080
you can't kid yourself
and say that it is.
971
00:42:04,900 --> 00:42:07,300
Carlos, please pack your knives and go.
972
00:42:14,530 --> 00:42:15,740
The rest of you can go, too.
973
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:16,880
Thank you.
974
00:42:17,940 --> 00:42:19,020
It's a pleasure.
975
00:42:19,380 --> 00:42:20,460
Focus, dude.
976
00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:21,540
I will.
977
00:42:23,950 --> 00:42:26,120
I'm going to go home
and have margarita, and
978
00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:27,870
I'm going to toast to all these wonderful
979
00:42:27,900 --> 00:42:28,620
people.
980
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:29,660
Remember, good luck.
981
00:42:29,860 --> 00:42:30,920
Break an egg.
982
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:35,020
I am surprised I didn't go
further in the competition.
983
00:42:35,660 --> 00:42:39,540
I still had a couple of tricks left
up my sleeve that I didn't get to use.
984
00:42:41,340 --> 00:42:44,860
I came here for my Top
Chef diploma, and I
985
00:42:44,860 --> 00:42:47,380
may not graduate, but I definitely got an
986
00:42:47,380 --> 00:42:48,400
education.
987
00:42:57,380 --> 00:42:58,840
Next on Top Chef.
988
00:43:00,140 --> 00:43:01,480
Today's challenge is simple.
989
00:43:01,700 --> 00:43:04,560
Create a mouth-watering filling entree.
990
00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:05,900
But there's a catch.
991
00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:13,380
Right now, I'm freaking out, and I have
the best chance of being sent home.
992
00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:16,820
I don't think Mike could cook his weight
on a paper bag and listen to French fries
993
00:43:16,820 --> 00:43:17,900
with it.
994
00:43:18,305 --> 00:44:18,678
