00:01Previously on Hell's Kitchen, Battle of the States...
00:04Hell's Kitchen!
00:07The final three were challenged to create an elevated five-course menu.
00:12Off you go, guys.
00:14Sydney embraced her southern roots.
00:16She used to beg my dad to make me chicken and dumplings.
00:19Ellie leaned into her background.
00:21Las Vegas, I'm like, let's glamour. Steakhouse.
00:24And Jada refused to settle for less than perfection.
00:27It's falling apart.
00:29So we're gonna try this gnocchi for a third time.
00:32And her Florida-inspired dishes.
00:34A crudo.
00:35It is a ten.
00:36Wow.
00:37Jada's gnocchi.
00:38A nine.
00:39Amazing.
00:40The New York strip.
00:41I'm gonna give you a nine.
00:42Incredible.
00:43Left the judges wanting more.
00:44Can you take it? No, sorry.
00:45And she would be the first chef to earn a spot in the finale.
00:48Finally!
00:50Can't talk right now because I'm gonna cry.
00:52With North Carolina's Sydney and Nevada's Ellie vying for the remaining spot.
00:57One more dish to judge.
00:59It all came down to guest judge Stephanie Isard.
01:02Ellie, I think you cooked it so beautifully.
01:04I'm gonna give you a nine.
01:05And that score enabled Ellie to join Jada in the finale.
01:09Amazing.
01:10I am this close to winning.
01:12With the first brigade pick, Jada chose.
01:15Anaya.
01:16Followed by Anthony, Henry, and Chris.
01:19Ellie's first pick was no surprise.
01:22Sydney.
01:23Who was followed by Lisa, Jaden, and Alexandra.
01:27And now you're only one win away.
01:29Tonight, it's Nevada versus Florida as Ellie and Jada face off.
01:34So it doesn't leave unless it's perfect.
01:35Yes, Jada.
01:36In a no holds barred final dinner service.
01:37Come on, Lisa.
01:38I need those ducks.
01:39Get it together.
01:40With a life-changing opportunity on the line.
01:41I know we know how to cook.
01:42Jaden, both salty.
01:43And all eyes on the final two.
01:44Come on, Alex.
01:45Walking means walking.
01:46The pressure has never been higher.
01:47What the pissing me off?
01:48Keep pushing.
01:49My heart is beating out of my chest.
01:51Which chef will be crowned champion?
01:52The chef whose door opens will become the winner.
01:55Find out tonight.

02:33Up you go.
02:34Well done.
02:35Smash it.
02:36Come on.
02:37Go, go, go.
02:38Oh, my God.
02:43I can't believe this.
02:44I made it to the finale of Hell's Kitchen.
02:47of hell's kitchen jade i am overwhelmed with emotion i just want to cry this is absolutely
02:57amazing i cannot believe i've made it this far hey i'm so proud of you thank you i lost it sucks
03:05but i am gonna do everything in my power to make sure that ellie wins she's still my hell's kitchen
03:11bestie i'm so glad you're in the final i'm so glad sydney is disappointed but the minute hell's
03:19kitchen opens she is going to do everything in her power to ensure that i win so syd hot abs lisa
03:26obviously is meat jaden's gonna run fish alex is gonna run garnish i'm gonna crush garnish tomorrow
03:32i'm gonna prove all them haters wrong muscles it's going to be in a pan you're gonna do garlic
03:38shallots i have worked steakhouses for the past six seven years of my life this menu is my flair
03:46my twist my flavors all righty meat so the duck is gonna be a sancho confit and then a nice chopped
03:57trevizo and that will be separate from the other stuff nope this is all one hand okay this is one
04:04pan i do think i need to keep a watchful eye on alex since she's not as strong as a leader on a
04:10station you can kind of pre-do it a little bit i used to do that at one restaurant i worked at but
04:16i don't know it's a risk of over cooking though there is a risk of it over cooking i'm just a little
04:22concerned about our team with alexandra she'd probably be the weakest chef on our team all right
04:28ribeye we're going cream spinach with this one and the poached egg right yep hard
04:38on today's agenda we're going to talk about how jada made the finale and then we'll talk about
04:46what is i have bad eyesight jada put an eye up for elimination she wanted to talk to you about that
04:53so i have beef actually i may be out of the competition but beef is forever no i'm just
04:59i'm just kidding why do you hate me i don't hate you i'm so happy for you if it wasn't me it was gonna
05:05be you i'm not a huge fan of anaya i think she's cocky why are you laughing i think one service with
05:12anaya is probably enough for me so manana do not put me on meat um shut up meat is gonna be henry
05:22fish is gonna be anaya i'm actually gonna put chris on garnish and then obviously anthony you are on
05:28apps i'm gonna write out the seared scallops so the sauce underneath is a yuzu verblanc
05:35nice overall this menu really kind of plays into my background i mean it's got cuban it's got
05:41african-american a little bit of asian influence i think it's very tropical and it lends well to florida
05:45which is what i'm representing it's a one big melting pot so instead of the carrots and the turnips
05:51being best friends in the pan it's gonna be the carrots and the peas pick up carrots peas with
05:55butter exactly i'm extremely confident with my menu everything is me on a plate i stay true to me by
06:00staying true to my flavors i would rather you guys not have to leave your station if you don't have to
06:05okay i think jada has a great menu i think it's well put together i definitely want jada to win but ellie
06:13is a hell of a line cook a hell of a chef so yeah this is gonna be a fight
06:25hi chef after a late night planning their menus with their brigades i want you organized to go to
06:32war this is war tonight ellie and jada begin the all-important prep for tonight's dinner service don't
06:38be afraid of hurting people's feelings tonight if you see someone going down yes chef i'm here
06:43to win this is the biggest day of my life i have never been so eager and so scared please every
06:51station have butter i don't want that to be a demise tonight not having butter i think nerves
06:57are a great sign if you're not nervous means you don't care a little heads up please guys please make
07:02sure you have enough white wine heard i care a lot i care a whole lot blister those guys a little
07:09bit more jay get a little more color on those tomatoes turn it try to get them like maybe a
07:13touch smaller just a touch okay you're going to take all of these right on a cutting board strain
07:20this liquid out literally just run a knife through it okay sweat them off a little bit i just don't want
07:24to do all of it right now i want to wait till we get closer to like real service yeah yeah but let's
07:28make a small pot now fried shallot love it i don't want to micromanage i don't want to over dictate
07:36but i also want things to come out my way and nobody else's way mustard cream sauce is already
07:40done and i put it over there it just needs a label i do like being in control so i've heard i'm just
07:45waiting on botarga looks like this which i haven't seen yet i'm doing it on expo oh you're just gonna
07:51shave yes don't worry about oh jade is doing as much as she can right now i don't want to go crazy with
07:56how big it is but i also don't want to like make them choose too small like girl you gotta let us
08:03do some stuff because she's got a lot of stuff going on with this venue and then not super julian
08:07i would say like boom like one inch pieces if you cut one exactly i don't know what the is going on
