That is glue.

00:00:07,759 --> 00:00:10,063
I was the weakest link,
unfortunately.

...And his second.

Thank you, chef.

Marcus: I know we're not
supposed to have favorites,

00:00:15,639 --> 00:00:16,908
but I really liked him.
11
00:00:16,975 --> 00:00:19,712

continued to dominate,

00:00:19,780 --> 00:00:21,648
as they won
another team challenge.

00:00:21,716 --> 00:00:23,483
- Ludo's kitchen.
- Good job, guys.

I win two straight

You win nothing.

Why do you got to play
head games?

00:00:30,562 --> 00:00:31,862
No, no, no.
20
00:00:31,930 --> 00:00:33,931
Jacquelyn, that's sabotage.
Why did you do that?
21
00:00:33,999 --> 00:00:35,667
Whoo! Smells good!

00:00:35,735 --> 00:00:37,770
I'm ignoring
all of your opinions.

Narrator: Two more cooks
will be eliminated.

This was a-a mushy,
flavorless mouthful of food.
26
00:00:44,181 --> 00:00:46,049
This is disgusting.
This is dull.

- Seriously.
- Can I just finish?

- I said --
- Can I finish?

This is gross.
It's disgusting.

When you think about street food,
Sarah, what do you think?

Like tacos or, you know,
burritos, things like that.

Something that's very easy
to grab on to and --

Yep. Eating it with your hands.
No knife or fork, of course.

are enjoyed

Last week, we lost two members.

I think it's an advantage,
in a way,

00:02:12,521 --> 00:02:14,757
because I can spend much more
time with you guys right now.

I brought something for you
just for good luck.

The winning team will get a
master class with chef Roy Choi

00:03:53,615 --> 00:03:56,281
and his help
during the solo challenge.
101
00:03:56,349 --> 00:03:58,248
The mentor of the losing team
will be forced
102
00:03:58,316 --> 00:04:00,483
to eliminate someone
from their own kitchen.
103
00:04:03,021 --> 00:04:04,656
Look, I have a little experience
with street food.
104
00:04:04,724 --> 00:04:08,559
I have a food truck,
and my truck is very successful.
105
00:04:08,627 --> 00:04:11,363
Narrator: Each mentor
sets their team a specific task
106
00:04:11,398 --> 00:04:14,034
in hopes of winning
the team challenge.
107
00:04:14,102 --> 00:04:15,870
To have a challenge
like street food
108
00:04:15,938 --> 00:04:18,739
with two really strong cooks,
109
00:04:18,807 --> 00:04:21,109
I'm like, "let's go."
110
00:04:21,178 --> 00:04:24,614
Anthony: I figure,
considering our challenge today,
111
00:04:24,682 --> 00:04:26,516
it would be much more appropriate
112
00:04:26,617 --> 00:04:30,522
for us to have this discussion
and demonstration right here.
113
00:04:30,590 --> 00:04:32,257
My mission was simple.
114
00:04:32,325 --> 00:04:35,160
Make something that
the guest mentor's gonna like,
115
00:04:35,227 --> 00:04:37,929
either a sandwich
or sandwich-like.
116
00:04:37,996 --> 00:04:40,764
You know, I see a sandwich as,
like, a flavor bomb, a missile.
117
00:04:40,832 --> 00:04:42,232
Behold the banh mi --
118
00:04:42,300 --> 00:04:45,435
a simple-looking object,
but actually quite complex.
119
00:04:45,503 --> 00:04:47,071
The banh mi is a perfect example
120
00:04:47,139 --> 00:04:50,609
of constructing
a mouthful of food --
121
00:04:50,677 --> 00:04:55,114
a well-cooked piece of pork
with some pâté and some pickles.
122
00:04:55,181 --> 00:04:59,085
A pleasurable eating experience
that highlights
123
00:04:59,153 --> 00:05:02,188
all of those flavors
and textures to best effect.
124
00:05:02,256 --> 00:05:03,789
I keep looking at you and
thinking about you, Shellie,
125
00:05:03,857 --> 00:05:05,357
'cause I'm expecting
a lot from you.
126
00:05:05,425 --> 00:05:08,493
Shellie: Being a food-truck owner
is actually really tough.
127
00:05:08,561 --> 00:05:11,831
I spend 60-plus hours a week
on the truck.
128
00:05:11,899 --> 00:05:13,633
So I get to see my kids
in the morning
129
00:05:13,701 --> 00:05:14,768
when they go to school.
130
00:05:14,835 --> 00:05:16,669
I drop them off,
and then sometimes,
131
00:05:16,737 --> 00:05:18,237
I come home at night,
and they're sleeping.
132
00:05:18,305 --> 00:05:19,705
It's hard as a mom,
133
00:05:19,773 --> 00:05:21,906
but I just want to make sure
that they're well taken care of.
134
00:05:21,974 --> 00:05:23,705
Got a last-minute
ingredient
135
00:05:23,773 --> 00:05:27,138
that I think Roy will
particularly be susceptible.
136
00:05:27,206 --> 00:05:29,907
We'll call that
ingredient "x."
137
00:05:29,975 --> 00:05:31,674
I know him well,
and I think he'll like this.
138
00:05:31,741 --> 00:05:34,242
It's ballsy, and it will horrify
all the other chefs.
139
00:05:34,310 --> 00:05:35,477
I'll spring it on you in there.

141
00:05:36,980 --> 00:05:39,381

this looks like meatballs,
142
00:05:39,449 --> 00:05:42,551
but they're actually
shrimp and meatballs together --
143
00:05:42,619 --> 00:05:43,886
like a falafel, really.
144
00:05:43,953 --> 00:05:45,519
It has a little bit
of chickpeas inside.
145

Marcus:
This challenge is simple.
146
00:05:46,921 --> 00:05:48,285
It's street food, that I love,
147
00:05:48,353 --> 00:05:51,085
and they need to incorporate
a little bit of seafood.
148
00:05:51,152 --> 00:05:54,321
So, I'm gonna fry these so
they're gonna be golden-brown.
149
00:05:54,389 --> 00:05:56,289
Street food reminds me
of hip-hop.
150
00:05:56,357 --> 00:05:58,024
You know,
it's got to hit you right away.
151
00:05:58,092 --> 00:06:01,564
There is no maître d'.
There's no reservation.
152
00:06:01,632 --> 00:06:02,799
There's nothing.
153
00:06:02,866 --> 00:06:05,401
It's really you and the food
and the taste.
154
00:06:05,469 --> 00:06:07,137
Just smell that, guys.
155
00:06:07,205 --> 00:06:09,339
- Smells great.
- It's gritty.
156
00:06:09,406 --> 00:06:10,673
I like to watch him cook,
you know?
157
00:06:10,741 --> 00:06:12,574
I like to see
what his technique is,
158
00:06:12,642 --> 00:06:13,640
how he builds his dishes.
159
00:06:13,708 --> 00:06:14,808
What's that mixture, chef?
160
00:06:14,875 --> 00:06:16,208
Yogurt,
just to take off the heat.
161
00:06:16,276 --> 00:06:17,076
It's really cool.
162
00:06:17,144 --> 00:06:18,544
Get in there.
Get dirty.
163
00:06:18,612 --> 00:06:19,846
Street food means, to me,
a lot.
164
00:06:19,913 --> 00:06:21,348
You know, I grew up --
I'm from New York City.
165
00:06:21,415 --> 00:06:22,782
I grew up in the projects,
166
00:06:22,850 --> 00:06:25,485
where Ghostface came from,
you know, the Wus.
167
00:06:25,553 --> 00:06:29,054
So being here is definitely
the opportunity of a lifetime.
168
00:06:29,122 --> 00:06:30,589
This one's gonna be
for New York City.

My team's challenge
170
00:06:33,860 --> 00:06:36,362
is to produce
the perfect fish and chips.
171
00:06:36,430 --> 00:06:38,865
I like to hold it
a teeny bit first
172
00:06:38,933 --> 00:06:41,535
so it starts firming up

Fish and chips is simple,

so many simple foods,

that batter really crisp.

put Spam on my cart.

that's bad for your team.

there is no room for error

Simple has to be
absolutely perfect.

you've got the texture right

- Okay.

Mm-hmm.
With a vinaigrette.

No. They'll go soggy.

Everything
will go runny and soggy.

Jacquelyn struggles a little bit
with flavor profiles.

- Can I have a feel of the texture?
- Yeah. Feel it.

Yeah, that's nice.

some salt now.

You need to add
a roundness to it.

Her sauce
is kind of a mayonnaise

that you might serve to a child
with fish sticks.

for the bite itself,

one of us to go home,

that's 'cause of me.

I've never really had before.

perfect, but this is good.

the taste at the end of the day.

Problem with this already
is construction.

with the dish.

if I necessarily understand

that it's an odd combination.

I want to beat Bourdain so bad.

Great flavor, good acidity,
nice crunch inside.

Only thing I would say on this is the --
the bread's not right.

this didn't surprise me

the discipline was poor.

it has largely been an attitude problem.

I could send either of you home,

every suggestion that you made,

a little something special

where I'm good.

00:33:23,365 --> 00:33:24,998
'Cause, like --
yeah, everybody was --
855
00:33:25,066 --> 00:33:26,733
yeah, a lot of people on the mainland
don't realize it's a cultural thing.
856
00:33:26,801 --> 00:33:27,701
It is.

- It's your first time.
- Marcus: Oh!

00:33:30,570 --> 00:33:31,870
It's your first time
winning something,

00:33:31,938 --> 00:33:33,004
and you win with Spam!
860
00:33:33,071 --> 00:33:34,771
Of course with Spam.

[ Laughs ]
I just don't understand.
862
00:33:36,608 --> 00:33:38,109
- Aah!
- Aah! Sabotage.
863
00:33:38,176 --> 00:33:42,180
- Sabotage.
- No. Spam was sabotage today.
864
00:33:42,248 --> 00:33:43,748
Street food is really about
865
00:33:43,816 --> 00:33:45,815
capturing the imagination
in one bite.
866
00:33:45,883 --> 00:33:48,084
If you don't grab the people
by the collarbone
867
00:33:48,152 --> 00:33:51,021
in that one bite,
they're gonna give up on you.
868
00:33:51,089 --> 00:33:52,056
We have this dish called
869
00:33:52,124 --> 00:33:53,257
the Blackjack quesadilla
with Kogi.
870
00:33:53,325 --> 00:33:57,026
You have cheese, tortilla,
and salsa,
871
00:33:57,094 --> 00:33:58,327
and really great short ribs.
872
00:33:58,395 --> 00:34:01,329
The first part of it
is to make a Korean marinade.
873
00:34:01,397 --> 00:34:03,999
It's basically soy sauce,
sesame oil,
874
00:34:04,066 --> 00:34:06,301
garlic, green onions,
sesame seeds,
875
00:34:06,368 --> 00:34:07,968
and some sort of sweetener.
876
00:34:08,036 --> 00:34:09,569
As I marinate the meat,
877
00:34:09,637 --> 00:34:11,771
thinking about --
about everything.
878
00:34:11,839 --> 00:34:14,807
Girls, life,
I'm thinking about my past,
879
00:34:14,875 --> 00:34:16,076
every mistake I made.
880
00:34:16,143 --> 00:34:18,278
Bring everything
into the marinade.
881
00:34:18,346 --> 00:34:20,013
For me, that is mise en place.
882
00:34:20,081 --> 00:34:22,647
This is what we do
on the streets every single day.
883
00:34:22,715 --> 00:34:24,048
You know,
it's just a quesadilla, right?
884
00:34:24,116 --> 00:34:27,948
But I'm putting all my soul
into the dish, you know?
885
00:34:28,016 --> 00:34:31,014
This bad-ass rebel
was very spiritual.
886
00:34:31,082 --> 00:34:34,017
Like, Roy Choi made you reflect
on your own life
887
00:34:34,085 --> 00:34:35,986
as he's cooking a quesadilla.
888
00:34:36,054 --> 00:34:37,588
You know,
I want to drink a beer with that dude.
889
00:34:37,655 --> 00:34:38,722
That dude is so cool.
890
00:34:38,789 --> 00:34:40,790
Serve it with a salsa.
Go ahead and try.

[ Light laughter ]

00:34:45,590 --> 00:34:46,723
But it's good, right?
893
00:34:46,791 --> 00:34:48,692
- Mm-hmm.
- It's good, right?
894
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:50,662
It makes you feel something,
you know?
895
00:34:50,729 --> 00:34:52,731
And I think that's the biggest
thing about street food.
896
00:34:52,799 --> 00:34:54,900
I actually think
that Jacquelyn thinks
897
00:34:54,967 --> 00:34:58,138
she's above
taking criticism from Nigella.
898
00:34:58,206 --> 00:35:00,009
Did anybody kind of wish
that she'd just be like,
899
00:35:00,076 --> 00:35:02,277
"you're both going home,
and I'm gonna go have an espresso"?
900
00:35:02,345 --> 00:35:03,645
Yeah.
[ Cassandra laughs ]
901
00:35:03,713 --> 00:35:05,047
As a chef,
I wouldn't want to deal
902
00:35:05,114 --> 00:35:06,516
with somebody who is, you know,
not listening to me.
903
00:35:06,584 --> 00:35:07,984
- Absolutely not.
- Yeah.
904
00:35:08,052 --> 00:35:09,518
That -- that would never fly
in a regular kitchen, right?
905
00:35:09,586 --> 00:35:11,853
You guys think she's gonna make it
past the individual challenge?
906
00:35:11,921 --> 00:35:13,589
I hope not.
I want her to go.
907
00:35:13,657 --> 00:35:15,457
This is a competition.
People need to leave.
908
00:35:18,894 --> 00:35:20,562
Let's have a talk,
'cause I'm really, really glad
909
00:35:20,630 --> 00:35:21,797
we've got a chance to do this.
910
00:35:21,865 --> 00:35:24,767
What's --
tell me what's going on.
911
00:35:24,835 --> 00:35:27,069
I didn't want our team
to get down to this point.
912
00:35:27,137 --> 00:35:28,369
You and me both.
913
00:35:28,437 --> 00:35:30,339
I am definitely game on now,
for sure.
914
00:35:30,407 --> 00:35:31,542
You have talent,
915
00:35:31,610 --> 00:35:33,647
but you obviously have
slight discipline issues.
916
00:35:33,715 --> 00:35:35,784
You've got too much going on
917
00:35:35,852 --> 00:35:38,220
that isn't necessarily
about the food.
918
00:35:38,287 --> 00:35:40,422
Even things like just putting,
you know --
919
00:35:40,490 --> 00:35:42,557
- putting your hair back.
- Yes. Of course.

00:35:42,625 --> 00:35:45,094
And there's
a slight hyperventilation
921
00:35:45,162 --> 00:35:48,402
in the way you hurl yourself
around the kitchen.
922
00:35:48,471 --> 00:35:50,773
That's the way I am as a chef.
923
00:35:50,841 --> 00:35:52,275
I'm high-energy.
I move around.
924
00:35:52,343 --> 00:35:54,913
I run here. I run there.
I have not a second to spare.
925
00:35:54,981 --> 00:35:56,583
I want to explain, though,
the reason I'm doing that
926
00:35:56,651 --> 00:35:59,019
is because I know
that I need to fire one thing
927
00:35:59,087 --> 00:36:00,490
to begin my multitasking.
928
00:36:00,558 --> 00:36:01,726
Yes, but you must --
929
00:36:01,793 --> 00:36:03,594
you must have been trained
about mise en place.
930
00:36:03,662 --> 00:36:05,363
Of course, of course.
Everything in its place.
931
00:36:05,431 --> 00:36:06,831
And that means
everything you need
932
00:36:06,899 --> 00:36:09,068
should be there
before you start cooking.
933
00:36:09,136 --> 00:36:11,872
If Jacquelyn
doesn't really digest
934
00:36:11,939 --> 00:36:14,274
everything
that's been said to her,
935
00:36:14,342 --> 00:36:17,811

solo challenge to go forward.

this opportunity.

make us something

that you'd like to eat
in the street.

must make a single bite

to be tasted blind
by the mentors.

955
00:37:10,577 --> 00:37:13,746
I'm a restaurant chef,
and street food is something
956
00:37:13,814 --> 00:37:16,750
I have no experience with
aside from eating it.
957
00:37:16,818 --> 00:37:20,187

I'm serving it
with a little chow-chow aioli,
959
00:37:22,324 --> 00:37:24,158
so it's gonna have
a little spice to it.
960
00:37:24,226 --> 00:37:26,661
It's kind of taking a risk
because Nigella had
961
00:37:26,729 --> 00:37:29,263
some problems
with her fish and chips earlier.
962
00:37:29,331 --> 00:37:30,929
It's kind of a finicky thing that,
you know,

00:37:30,997 --> 00:37:32,829
if you don't do it right,
it's horrible.
964

perfect fish and chips --

you cannot find in a book.

have to live in it.

there was drugs,
there was violence and things going on.

a way for me
to get out of the projects,

too much.

gonna receive it pretty well.

tap into that.

over rice.

this is one of my favorite
street-food dishes in the world.

- It's a staple, man.

So I hope they have experience
with street food

a big deal here in L.A.

a cilantro-mint chutney,

my favorite things to eat,

it speaks a lot to me,

it's a classic street food.

No, but I think it's --
I think it's right.

- Yeah. I think it's right, yeah.
- Yeah, I think it's right, too.
1359
00:52:29,678 --> 00:52:31,744
I was so afraid it was gonna
be so sweet, but not at all.

I mean -- I would love for you
to finish the whole one
1361
00:52:33,980 --> 00:52:35,580
and then say to me
that it's not too sweet.
1362
00:52:35,648 --> 00:52:36,614
- Okay.
- So, we never agreed, you and me.
1363
00:52:36,682 --> 00:52:38,216
No, but this is meant
to be --
1364
00:52:38,284 --> 00:52:39,784
it's meant to be too sweet.
1365
00:52:39,852 --> 00:52:41,619

from my red star experience.

You bet I'm gonna get
the gold star this time.

Cassandra:
I'm feeling really great.
1370
00:52:55,395 --> 00:52:57,998
I think a falafel is definitely,
like, my kind of dish.
1371
00:52:58,066 --> 00:52:59,833
It's really yummy
and vegetarian,
1372
00:52:59,900 --> 00:53:01,734
but it's still a little naughty
'cause it's fried.
1373
00:53:01,802 --> 00:53:04,136
The one thing
I definitely have on my side
1374
00:53:04,203 --> 00:53:06,270
is that at least
it's very obvious what it is.

No.

Lacked attitude.

what do we think, guys?

Fried something?
1382

But street food
should leave you direct.

You know what it is,
1384
00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:26,121
and you should fall in love with it,
with that bite.
1385
00:53:27,090 --> 00:53:28,657
This doesn't leave me
with anything.
1386
00:53:28,725 --> 00:53:31,328
It leaves me with,
"what is it?"
1387
00:53:31,396 --> 00:53:33,364
And I'm not sure
if I want that second bite.

I tasted her falafel,
1389
00:53:38,602 --> 00:53:41,374

a little more heat.

Are they gonna recognize
1401
00:54:17,407 --> 00:54:21,975
that I spent the time
in preparing that fresh bread?
1402
00:54:22,043 --> 00:54:23,776
Bread's homemade, no?
1403
00:54:23,844 --> 00:54:24,909
Bread is terrific.

it was a great flavor,

but quite unfocused, actually.

Very good flavor.
I will say that.

really nervous,

because my caramel did not
come out the way I wanted it to.
1421
00:54:57,470 --> 00:54:59,037
It was too light in color,
1422

and the texture
wasn't quite right.

I can tell you right now
they hate it.

I was gonna like that.

I'm all about street,
and that --
1441
00:55:56,328 --> 00:55:57,863
the fact that the challenge
is street food --

I'm the kid in the candy store.
It's mine.

what falafel was today.

Maybe they got too much sugar
on their palates before they ate it.

Team Nigella is down to one person.

And I was really surprised
to hear "not enough seasoning,"
1560
00:59:54,099 --> 00:59:56,399
only because
it was garlic --
1561

you know,
the salt, pepper, garlic,

- paprika, oregano.
- Yeah, they said it needed more salt and pepper.

it had peppercorn,

it's just all in there.
1572

or it could be a vegetable,

and it takes hours upon hours
to do,

and I'm like, "you cooked
the empanada in a confit?

01:05:19,533 --> 01:05:21,201
Shehu: Get a red star
from my own mentor --
1694
01:05:21,269 --> 01:05:22,470
that's a tough pill to swallow.
1695
01:05:24,707 --> 01:05:26,438
I picked Shehu.
There it is.
1696
01:05:26,505 --> 01:05:27,537
I hate it.
1697
01:05:27,605 --> 01:05:29,469
My heart is on the floor.
1698
01:05:29,537 --> 01:05:30,602
How did that happen?
1699
01:05:30,670 --> 01:05:32,305
[ Nigella groans ]
1700
01:05:34,309 --> 01:05:39,180
My worst dish was cooked by...
1701
01:05:41,715 --> 01:05:42,714
...Shehu.
1702
01:05:42,782 --> 01:05:43,814
Man.
1703
01:05:45,315 --> 01:05:46,514
Sorry.
1704
01:05:47,716 --> 01:05:51,855
My worst dish was cooked by...
1705
01:05:53,690 --> 01:05:54,589
...Shehu.
1706
01:06:00,459 --> 01:06:03,464
"Shehu," "Shehu," "Shehu."
1707
01:06:09,503 --> 01:06:11,102
Narrator:
With Shehu piling up
1708
01:06:11,169 --> 01:06:13,469
three red stars
to Cassandra's one,
1709
01:06:13,536 --> 01:06:16,173
they are tonight's worst cooks.
1710
01:06:16,241 --> 01:06:19,312
Now the mentors have to pick
which one goes home.
1711
01:06:20,515 --> 01:06:22,717
Did Shehu just go down?
1712
01:06:22,784 --> 01:06:24,616
Yeah. He just did.
1713
01:06:24,684 --> 01:06:26,783
Three strikes.
Damn.
1714
01:06:26,850 --> 01:06:28,251
Shehu: I'm done.
I'm gonna go home.
1715
01:06:28,319 --> 01:06:30,487
I'm ready to pack my bags,
and now it's my turn to go home.
1716
01:06:30,555 --> 01:06:34,721
It's a numbers game.
It's three versus one red star.
1717
01:06:34,789 --> 01:06:38,420
But my one is all really
it takes to get eliminated.
1718
01:06:46,962 --> 01:06:48,129
Anthony:
Shehu and Cassandra,
1719
01:06:48,196 --> 01:06:50,565
your dishes were our
least favorite of the night.
1720
01:06:50,632 --> 01:06:52,133
That sucks.
1721
01:06:52,201 --> 01:06:54,036
Let's take a look
at what got you
1722
01:06:54,104 --> 01:06:55,972
in this unenviable position.
1723
01:06:56,040 --> 01:06:59,878
Shehu, he made some mistakes today,
but he's a great cook.
1724
01:06:59,946 --> 01:07:01,579
I mean,
he's got all this knowledge.
1725
01:07:01,646 --> 01:07:02,880
He's got great potential.
1726
01:07:02,947 --> 01:07:05,116
That bottom two does not deserve
to be bottom two.
1727
01:07:05,184 --> 01:07:08,055
Jacquelyn should be going home.
Her food is always awful.
1728
01:07:08,123 --> 01:07:09,091
There's better people here.
1729
01:07:10,829 --> 01:07:13,566
Cassandra,
what did you make for us
1730
01:07:13,634 --> 01:07:14,867
that --
that got you here?
1731
01:07:14,934 --> 01:07:15,834
What is this?
1732
01:07:15,902 --> 01:07:17,069
It was a falafel.
1733
01:07:17,137 --> 01:07:20,040
I thought I executed well.
1734
01:07:20,108 --> 01:07:22,376
I had a lot of my teammates
taste it,
1735
01:07:22,444 --> 01:07:23,877
and everybody
seemed to enjoy it.
1736
01:07:23,945 --> 01:07:25,678
I had even someone
from your team taste it,
1737
01:07:25,746 --> 01:07:27,146
and they enjoyed it.
1738
01:07:27,214 --> 01:07:29,215
Lee:
She made a bad dish today, yes.
1739
01:07:29,282 --> 01:07:31,718
I can't say it was
the best falafel I've ever had.
1740
01:07:31,786 --> 01:07:32,786
But over the past few weeks,
1741
01:07:32,854 --> 01:07:34,456
Cassandra and I have become
very close.
1742
01:07:34,524 --> 01:07:36,326
I want her to stay.
1743
01:07:36,394 --> 01:07:38,565
This was a-a mushy,
flavorless mouthful of food.
1744
01:07:38,633 --> 01:07:42,636
Street food should be vibrant,
compelling, exciting,
1745
01:07:42,704 --> 01:07:44,572
make you want to come back.
1746
01:07:44,640 --> 01:07:48,345
This, I'm -- I'm sorry to say,
was -- was filler.
1747
01:07:49,416 --> 01:07:52,219
Cassandra,
how did you make your falafel?
1748
01:07:52,287 --> 01:07:55,587
Chickpeas, onions, garlic,
garam masala,
1749
01:07:55,654 --> 01:07:57,856
and then flour
in the food processor.
1750
01:07:57,924 --> 01:08:00,859
The food processor may have been
part of the trouble --
1751
01:08:00,927 --> 01:08:02,629
makes everything very,
very fine.
1752
01:08:02,697 --> 01:08:04,131
I don't put flour in falafel.
1753
01:08:04,199 --> 01:08:06,402
Do you when you make it?
1754
01:08:06,471 --> 01:08:10,176
Well, to hold it together when I --
when I was frying it.
1755
01:08:10,244 --> 01:08:11,580
That is what makes it gummy.
1756
01:08:12,917 --> 01:08:15,583
Look, I mean,
I think your choice was great.
1757
01:08:15,650 --> 01:08:19,554
I think your mistake here today,
it was with your seasoning.
1758
01:08:21,091 --> 01:08:23,360
All right, Shehu,
you have zero reason
1759
01:08:23,429 --> 01:08:24,897
even to be in the bottom half.
1760
01:08:24,965 --> 01:08:26,066
What did you cook for us?
1761
01:08:26,134 --> 01:08:27,636
Today, I tried to make --
1762
01:08:27,703 --> 01:08:29,538
do my take on, like,
West Indian flavors.
1763
01:08:29,605 --> 01:08:31,908
Took the, um, skirt steak,
1764
01:08:31,975 --> 01:08:34,976
made my own jerk seasoning,
the jerk, let it marinate.
1765
01:08:35,044 --> 01:08:37,710
And I, like, wanted to do, like,
a nice, fried, hard dough.
1766
01:08:37,778 --> 01:08:41,343
If there was plantains
in the pantry today,
1767
01:08:41,410 --> 01:08:43,043
I would definitely
have went with plantains,
1768
01:08:43,111 --> 01:08:44,880
but I know
bananas are always there.
1769
01:08:44,948 --> 01:08:48,153
So I made, like, bananas with
a brown-sugar-spiced mixture
1770
01:08:48,221 --> 01:08:51,661
to cut off the spiciness of the,
um, jerk.
1771
01:08:51,729 --> 01:08:54,830
"No plantains,
so I'm using bananas"?
1772
01:08:54,898 --> 01:08:56,700
Ooh. Nasty.
1773
01:08:56,767 --> 01:08:58,937
The dough is not cooked properly.
It's raw.
1774
01:08:59,005 --> 01:09:01,374
You don't have plantains,
so you go for banana,
1775
01:09:01,443 --> 01:09:04,213
and then you have mango on top,
so it becomes sweet on sweet.
1776
01:09:04,281 --> 01:09:07,114
Shehu's dish --
it just sounds so disgusting.
1777
01:09:07,182 --> 01:09:08,815
I love that you're bringing
something new,
1778
01:09:08,882 --> 01:09:10,448
that you're taking risk,
1779
01:09:10,516 --> 01:09:12,485
but with that,
you got to execute.
1780
01:09:12,553 --> 01:09:14,021
I mean, clearly it was [bleep].
[ Chuckles ]
1781
01:09:14,089 --> 01:09:16,660
I'm curious to know --
have you made this dish before?
1782
01:09:16,728 --> 01:09:18,629
My first time
trying it out, and...
1783
01:09:18,697 --> 01:09:23,336
Don't do it
on a national TV show!
1784
01:09:23,404 --> 01:09:26,576
Not the time to be,
you know, uh,
1785
01:09:26,644 --> 01:09:28,746
entering
entirely new terrain here.
1786
01:09:28,814 --> 01:09:30,349
You should have stuck
with what you know,
1787
01:09:30,416 --> 01:09:33,016
because you know a lot.
1788
01:09:33,084 --> 01:09:34,983
You have an incredible résumé,
1789
01:09:35,050 --> 01:09:38,053
uh, worked in a terrifying
number of great places
1790
01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:39,523
with really great chefs.
1791
01:09:39,590 --> 01:09:42,862
I'm very surprised to see
a chef like you doing that.
1792
01:09:42,929 --> 01:09:44,029
So, see, I'm in shock.
1793
01:09:44,096 --> 01:09:46,195
What happened, bro?
I mean, seriously.
1794
01:09:46,263 --> 01:09:48,728
What happened?
How you can think about that?
1795
01:09:48,796 --> 01:09:50,195
I really thought I was gonna
knock this out the box.
1796
01:09:50,262 --> 01:09:51,261
You know,
I was really, like, uh --
1797
01:09:51,329 --> 01:09:52,830
I know, but you need
to taste good, bro.
1798
01:09:52,898 --> 01:09:54,233
I love creativity.
1799
01:09:54,300 --> 01:09:55,636
I felt comfortable.
I take --
1800
01:09:55,704 --> 01:09:58,673
Also, I'm really worried about
your taste, your palate, huh?
1801
01:09:58,741 --> 01:10:00,040
If you're feeling good
about that,
1802
01:10:00,108 --> 01:10:01,107
don't know what to say.
1803
01:10:01,175 --> 01:10:03,275
It's kind of astonishing to me.
1804
01:10:03,343 --> 01:10:06,043
I gave you a gold star
last week.
1805
01:10:08,315 --> 01:10:11,020
There is an appreciation here
for the fact
1806
01:10:11,088 --> 01:10:12,890
that you're bringing something
that is original.
1807
01:10:12,957 --> 01:10:14,557
- You need to taste good.
- But you need to --
1808
01:10:14,625 --> 01:10:16,459
well, you need to taste good,
and you need to execute.
1809
01:10:16,526 --> 01:10:17,960
Yeah. I understand.
Thank you.
1810
01:10:18,028 --> 01:10:19,261
I almost died.
1811
01:10:20,529 --> 01:10:23,529
Cassandra, Shehu...
1812
01:10:23,597 --> 01:10:25,366
One of you guys
has got to go home tonight.
1813
01:10:25,435 --> 01:10:27,573
Cassandra, why --
why should you stay?
1814
01:10:27,640 --> 01:10:29,843
Well, first of all,
I want to apologize.
1815
01:10:29,910 --> 01:10:33,079
I should have been a little bit
bolder and not so safe.
1816
01:10:33,147 --> 01:10:35,182
I feel like last week,
I gave you guys
1817
01:10:35,250 --> 01:10:37,219
a really good,
strong dish with the lobster roll,
1818
01:10:37,287 --> 01:10:39,524
and I was super-proud,
and you all loved that.
1819
01:10:39,592 --> 01:10:43,532
Um, so I feel like I have proven
something to you guys as a chef.
1820
01:10:43,599 --> 01:10:46,967
I'm dying right now. It --
it's, like, heartbreaking.
1821
01:10:47,035 --> 01:10:48,269
This is a tough one to watch.
1822
01:10:48,337 --> 01:10:50,005
I want to be able
to show you guys
1823
01:10:50,073 --> 01:10:51,641
that I can really surprise you,
1824
01:10:51,709 --> 01:10:53,444
and I know I have it in me.
1825
01:10:53,512 --> 01:10:55,514
And I just cherish every minute
1826
01:10:55,581 --> 01:10:56,815
that I get to learn more
from you,
1827
01:10:56,883 --> 01:10:58,649
and I know I have
so much more to learn.
1828
01:11:01,886 --> 01:11:03,520
Shehu.
1829
01:11:03,588 --> 01:11:05,556
That's a compelling case.
What do you have to say?
1830
01:11:05,624 --> 01:11:07,458
I'm behind the 8 ball now.
1831
01:11:07,526 --> 01:11:10,228
I got three stars, and when
you dig yourself a trench,
1832
01:11:10,296 --> 01:11:11,830
you got to climb yourself
back out.
1833
01:11:11,898 --> 01:11:12,998
I'm strong enough to do it.
1834
01:11:13,066 --> 01:11:14,533
I understand
I fell short today.
1835
01:11:14,601 --> 01:11:16,201
If I do get a chance
to stay here,
1836
01:11:16,269 --> 01:11:17,335
I know I definitely have
1837
01:11:17,403 --> 01:11:18,737
some more stuff I can show
and showcase.
1838
01:11:18,804 --> 01:11:20,239
I'd just like
to have another chance
1839
01:11:20,306 --> 01:11:21,374
to, uh, to prove myself.
1840
01:11:23,812 --> 01:11:25,347
Best and worst cooks,
1841
01:11:25,415 --> 01:11:27,687
your stars are waiting for you
in the break room.
1842
01:11:27,753 --> 01:11:29,720
We have some discussing to do.
1843
01:11:29,788 --> 01:11:31,055
We'll see you shortly.
1844
01:11:42,403 --> 01:11:43,936
Would you like me
to put a star on you?
1845
01:11:44,004 --> 01:11:46,205
Jeff, I would love you
to put one on
1846
01:11:46,273 --> 01:11:48,573
and for Lee to put on one, please.
[ Laughs ]
1847
01:11:48,641 --> 01:11:51,275
It felt great that Jeff and Lee
did not get any stars today.
1848
01:11:51,342 --> 01:11:53,011
In fact,
I made them pin my stars on.
1849
01:11:53,079 --> 01:11:54,947
There you go.
They look great.
1850
01:11:55,014 --> 01:11:57,715
That damn banana was gorgeous.
[ Laughs ]
1851
01:11:57,783 --> 01:11:59,050
- Jeff: Congratulations.
- Thank you.
1852
01:11:59,118 --> 01:12:00,553
That was hot.
1853
01:12:00,621 --> 01:12:03,223
It really put me over the moon
1854
01:12:03,291 --> 01:12:05,961
after I got my red star
right here.
1855
01:12:06,029 --> 01:12:08,530
It was exactly
where I need to be.
1856
01:12:08,598 --> 01:12:11,461
Like a phoenix,
she rose from the ashes
1857
01:12:11,529 --> 01:12:13,497
and got two gold stars.
1858
01:12:13,565 --> 01:12:16,368
Shehu: I know right now they have to
figure out who to send home.
1859
01:12:16,437 --> 01:12:18,005
I'm not sure
who's fighting for me,
1860
01:12:18,072 --> 01:12:19,572
who wants to see me stay or not.
1861
01:12:19,640 --> 01:12:20,973
Not a good feeling.
1862
01:12:21,041 --> 01:12:23,241
Cassandra: I would do anything
to stay at this point.
1863
01:12:23,308 --> 01:12:24,873
I really want to keep learning.
1864
01:12:24,941 --> 01:12:27,141
I feel like
I have so much more to learn
1865
01:12:27,209 --> 01:12:29,313
and so much more
to take out of this experience.
1866
01:12:29,380 --> 01:12:30,679
I don't want to go home.
1867
01:12:32,449 --> 01:12:35,754
This is not at all
what I expected.
1868
01:12:35,821 --> 01:12:36,956
I am blown away.
1869
01:12:37,024 --> 01:12:40,094
I cannot believe
who the bottom two are.
1870
01:12:40,162 --> 01:12:42,663
I'm -- I'm shocked.
1871
01:12:42,730 --> 01:12:43,764
- I'm gobsmacked.
- Nigella: I know.
1872
01:12:43,832 --> 01:12:45,834
I'm just --
I cannot believe Shehu --
1873
01:12:45,902 --> 01:12:48,871
man, he put himself
in the hole with this.
1874
01:12:48,939 --> 01:12:51,238
I'm stunned.
Of all of the people...
1875
01:12:51,306 --> 01:12:53,742
And that's your price.
I don't think Shehu is that good.
1876
01:12:53,809 --> 01:12:54,910
I don't think Shehu
has finesse.
1877
01:12:54,977 --> 01:12:56,311
Stop.
1878
01:12:56,379 --> 01:12:59,281
It's gonna be kind of hard to
argue three against one, so...
1879
01:12:59,349 --> 01:13:01,415
I don't know, Shehu.
I mean...
1880
01:13:01,482 --> 01:13:04,117
Shehu: I'm not feeling really good.
I got three red stars.
1881
01:13:04,185 --> 01:13:06,286
One of the stars
comes from my own mentor,
1882
01:13:06,353 --> 01:13:07,986
so I don't know.
1883
01:13:08,054 --> 01:13:09,419
His food has spoken to me
the whole time.
1884
01:13:09,487 --> 01:13:11,253
[ Scoffs ]
He's a team play--
1885
01:13:11,321 --> 01:13:12,353
- he's a team player. He's helped out.
- Good.
1886
01:13:12,419 --> 01:13:13,718
- But the food is not good.
- Let me finish!
1887
01:13:13,786 --> 01:13:15,253
You're gonna get your chance,
right?
1888
01:13:15,321 --> 01:13:16,489
I tried, you know?
1889
01:13:16,556 --> 01:13:17,958
And that's --
you know, that's --
1890
01:13:18,025 --> 01:13:19,725
that's what life is,
is about taking risks.
1891
01:13:19,793 --> 01:13:22,293
Shehu takes big chances.
He made a big mistake over here.
1892
01:13:22,361 --> 01:13:24,162
I really appreciated the fact
1893
01:13:24,230 --> 01:13:26,296
that he does
an original dish here.
1894
01:13:26,364 --> 01:13:28,062
Nigella: No, no.
You can't defend this.
1895
01:13:28,130 --> 01:13:30,398
You can't defend this.
This is disgusting.
1896
01:13:30,466 --> 01:13:32,300
- This is disgusting. This is dull.
- No.
1897
01:13:32,368 --> 01:13:34,501
I'd rather see
somebody fail gloriously.
1898
01:13:34,569 --> 01:13:36,603
I mean, this is a failure
of the imagination,
1899
01:13:36,671 --> 01:13:40,602
a failure of -- of basic,
fundamental cooking principle.
1900
01:13:40,670 --> 01:13:41,836
Any good falafel --
1901
01:13:41,903 --> 01:13:44,472
it's such a classic
New York street food.
1902
01:13:44,540 --> 01:13:48,309
This is so abominably bad.
1903
01:13:48,377 --> 01:13:52,113
I-it's limp, there's no crust,
there's no flavor,
1904
01:13:52,180 --> 01:13:54,680
and a dismal, dismal falafel.
1905
01:13:54,747 --> 01:13:56,514
I believe in Cassandra.
That's my problem.
1906
01:13:58,150 --> 01:13:59,785
Marcus, don't shake your head.
1907
01:13:59,852 --> 01:14:01,420
You -- you're not with her
in the kitchen. I am with her.
1908
01:14:01,487 --> 01:14:03,088
Cassandra -- She has
shown to me in the kitchen --
1909
01:14:03,156 --> 01:14:05,358
- Mm-hmm.
- She tastes foie gras. She cooks foie gras.
1910
01:14:05,426 --> 01:14:07,127
I'm sorry.
She has a good attitude.
1911
01:14:07,194 --> 01:14:09,759
I already know how the outcome
is gonna be.
1912
01:14:09,827 --> 01:14:12,197
I'm gonna go home.
1913
01:14:12,264 --> 01:14:13,866
You know?
1914
01:14:13,934 --> 01:14:17,802
I mean, you're a really --
you got a gold star last week.
1915
01:14:17,869 --> 01:14:20,303
Lee:
He made a terrible dish today.
1916
01:14:20,371 --> 01:14:22,570
It was a mess.
It -- it didn't work.
1917
01:14:22,637 --> 01:14:25,170
And all -- you know,
he got three red stars for it.
1918
01:14:25,238 --> 01:14:27,535
I'm not ready to see her go.
1919
01:14:27,603 --> 01:14:31,141
First of all, Ludo,
Shehu has a gold star, right?
1920
01:14:31,209 --> 01:14:32,678
He's proven himself.
1921
01:14:32,746 --> 01:14:34,047
You know,
I mean, it looks nice.
1922
01:14:34,114 --> 01:14:35,382
Here's a chef that cooks,
that puts forward --
1923
01:14:35,450 --> 01:14:37,351
- That's gross.
- ...And -- and --
1924
01:14:37,418 --> 01:14:38,817
- and he takes chances.
- That's disgusting.
1925
01:14:38,885 --> 01:14:40,384
- You cook that, you should have --
- This, for me --
1926
01:14:40,450 --> 01:14:41,883
- to have the tradition --
- No, no.
1927
01:14:41,951 --> 01:14:43,217
- A professional chef doing that, that's scary!
- He takes --
1928
01:14:43,284 --> 01:14:45,585
I can't get over
the disgustingness of this.
1929
01:14:45,653 --> 01:14:48,355
We'd be mad
to send a cook this good home.
1930
01:14:48,423 --> 01:14:51,160
I feel that Cassandra
has surprised me.
1931
01:14:51,227 --> 01:14:53,293
I would like to err on the side
of keeping Shehu.
1932
01:14:53,361 --> 01:14:54,391
That's where I am.
1933
01:14:54,458 --> 01:14:55,591
I prefer Cassandra.
1934
01:14:55,659 --> 01:14:57,460
She has talent.
I believe in her.
1935
01:14:57,528 --> 01:14:58,628
Marcus: No, no, no.
She's not even close.
1936
01:14:58,696 --> 01:15:00,163
I believe in her.
1937
01:15:00,230 --> 01:15:01,696
Maybe my girl doesn't have a gold star.
I own that. I own that.
1938
01:15:01,764 --> 01:15:03,497
- But I believe in her.
- She's not even close.
1939
01:15:03,565 --> 01:15:04,931
Ohh!
1940
01:15:04,999 --> 01:15:06,498
Try her food. Stop it.
1941
01:15:06,566 --> 01:15:09,066
She's vegan, chef.
1942
01:15:09,134 --> 01:15:11,537
- She has a better palate than that.
- But you never picked -- you never picked her.
1943
01:15:11,605 --> 01:15:12,939
- You never picked her.
- Look at it, look!
1944

- Look at this!
- Come on!
1945
01:15:14,875 --> 01:15:16,775
Oh, my God.
It's a big piece of poo-poo again.
1946
01:15:16,843 --> 01:15:18,409
- There's somebody hiding --
- You picked your guy's.
1947
01:15:18,477 --> 01:15:21,678
- You picked your guy's, man.
- There's somebody hiding behind Jeff...
1948
01:15:22,812 --> 01:15:24,911
Stop one minute.
Stop one minute.
1949
01:15:24,979 --> 01:15:26,012
Stop. Shh!
1950
01:15:26,080 --> 01:15:28,104
You keep saying the same thing.

- He's an incredible chef.
- My girl, too!
1952
01:15:31,136 --> 01:15:32,619
I think she's good, too.
1953
01:15:32,687 --> 01:15:34,755
Listen,
it's not even discussable.
1954
01:15:34,823 --> 01:15:36,824
- I mean, she is --
- What, Marcus? He has three stars.
1955

- He is -- he is an incredible chef.
- It's gross. It's disgusting. I don't believe --
1956
01:15:39,261 --> 01:15:40,895
- Marcus, Marcus, I also think --
- It's gross.

- Can I finish?
1958
01:15:42,531 --> 01:15:43,497
Can I finish?

Accept --
accept for me, please.

- I have accepted it!

Please do it!
Listen to me! Gross!

- I have accepted it!

- [Bleep].

Ohh.

I know you want
to send Cassandra home,
1966

but that's not fair --
she's great.
1967
01:15:59,636 --> 01:16:01,470
Neither of us
deserve to go home.

from their mentors are gonna --

- No arguing.

Like, I-I don't understand it.
1978

- It shouldn't be like this.
- Shehu.
1979

We shouldn't have to
go through this right now.

Thank you.

Has Shehu shown us
the best he's got?
1984
01:16:39,960 --> 01:16:41,827
You know, I know I have
a lot more to show, and --
1985
01:16:41,895 --> 01:16:44,365
and even more to learn
from Marcus.
1986
01:16:44,433 --> 01:16:46,400
Can Cassandra go up more?
1987
01:16:46,468 --> 01:16:48,334
I mean, you started
where you started,
1988
01:16:48,401 --> 01:16:51,267
and you've done so much to get
where you're at right now.
1989
01:16:51,335 --> 01:16:53,303
Who's got the most room
for improvement?
1990
01:16:53,371 --> 01:16:56,039
I mean, you can make an argument
either way, you know?
1991
01:16:56,107 --> 01:16:58,708
Like,
I-I really don't know.
1992
01:16:58,776 --> 01:17:00,509
I think we have to think also
1993
01:17:00,577 --> 01:17:02,245
in terms of the competition
as a whole,
1994
01:17:02,313 --> 01:17:03,447
and that's different.
1995
01:17:03,515 --> 01:17:05,482
I don't know
how this is gonna turn out.
1996
01:17:05,550 --> 01:17:07,284
And either way,
it's gonna suck.
1997
01:17:07,352 --> 01:17:09,021
Like, really, really suck.
1998
01:17:09,089 --> 01:17:10,624
It's not fair.

01:17:10,692 --> 01:17:13,929
I can feel what she's feeling,
and it's just not --

It's not good.
2001

Oh, boy.

He had a bad day.
2003
01:17:18,501 --> 01:17:20,469
That's not really
the way he operates.
2004
01:17:20,537 --> 01:17:22,438
I don't want to have to do this
on my own right now.
2005
01:17:22,506 --> 01:17:25,240
Clearly, this is
a less-than-unanimous decision.
2006
01:17:25,308 --> 01:17:27,442
I think that would be
fair to say.
2007
01:17:31,047 --> 01:17:33,716
Let's bring them out
and give them the news.
2008
01:17:40,688 --> 01:17:43,423
This elimination,
it's really nerve-wracking.
2009
01:17:43,490 --> 01:17:47,460
In my heart, I think
Cassandra should be going home.

Louise:
I think it's gonna be Shehu.
2011
01:17:53,499 --> 01:17:56,769
I'm extremely worried
that she's gonna be sent home.
2012
01:17:58,639 --> 01:18:00,341
Shehu: Hey, yo,
story of my life.

01:18:00,409 --> 01:18:02,611
I'm, like, feeling really good,

2014
01:18:02,678 --> 01:18:03,979
Now I'm back in the gutter.
2015
01:18:04,046 --> 01:18:07,816
Cassandra: I'm with Shehu,
and I know he's a good cook,
2016
01:18:07,883 --> 01:18:10,752
so I kind of feel like I'm
up to the slaughter right now.
2017
01:18:12,889 --> 01:18:17,562
This really was a very,
very difficult decision.
2018
01:18:17,630 --> 01:18:21,635
We've never fought so hard
or so furiously

This was not a unanimous decision,
by a long shot.

01:18:26,041 --> 01:18:31,045
Shehu, you're a really,
really talented, experienced cook.
2022
01:18:31,113 --> 01:18:32,948
