- Team challenge: Ramsay created a new menu featuring pasta dishes for service. The team had 20 minutes to turn raw dough into pasta by Ramsay's standards. Since the red team had an extra member, Chris was forced to sit out. The blue team had 2.41 pounds of pasta accepted but the red team won with 2.45 pounds.
Reward/punishment: The red team received a gondola ride. The blue team prepped the remaining pasta for service.
Service: The service was filled to double capacity, forcing the teams to take turns cooking and working in the dining room. The red team got to choose to cook first for winning the challenge. Jimmy served soup on dirty plates. Elsie got confused over what entrees were on order, and Chris was scolded for saying "Oui chef" to Ramsay, but Michael was strong on desserts. The dishes the blue team served were satisfactory but slow, partially due to Michael convincing the customers to order as much lasagna as possible. Ralph had a tortellini rejected due to poor plating, but was otherwise strong on appetizers. Andrew struggled to give times on his short ribs before overcooking them twice, which Ramsay compared to a dog's dinner. The blue team continued to lag, forcing Ramsay to close service. Jimmy was the worst waiter of the night, as he brought the wrong order to a table while some customers complained about him sweating a lot. Even thought the red team served more of their customers, Ramsay named the blue team winners for having a higher quality of food despite being short a member; Michael was named the best of the worst in the red team.
Elimination: Michael nominated Elsie and Chris. Ramsay called Jimmy a bullet dodger for the second time, but ultimately eliminated Chris for failing to live up to his executive chef position.
Chris' exit comment: "I was an executive chef. I worked real hard to get it, and I'm not ashamed of it. I belong there, I belong to be the last one standing, so Michael took the easy way out."
Ramsay's comment: "When you come into the kitchen and announce that you are an executive chef, you expect a little bit more than what I got from Chris. If he's telling the world that he has that amount of knowledge then he should have been 10 times better."
