Narrator: Previously
on "Hell's Kitchen:

Head Chefs Only"...

- Your final challenge.

- Oh, my gosh.

Narrator: Chef Ramsay challenged

the final three chefs to each
create a five-course menu.

- Who's going to win?
- Me, Chef.

- I am, Chef.

Narrator:
Hannah's approach was unique.

- Every single component was a
different component of carrots.

All right, carrots
are going in the oven.

Narrator: Egypt paid
tribute to his Mexican roots.

- Get it brushed
with my al pastor.

Narrator: While Kyle went...

- Big, bold and sexy, Chef.

There's one last step
to get to the final.

I need to nail this.

Narrator: And his flavors...

- Kyle's pork belly, Chef.

Narrator:
Scored big with the judges...

- 10.
- Kyle's chicken dish.

- I'm going to go 10.
- The crudo from Kyle.

A 10. Wow.

[cheers and applause]

- Thank you, Chef.

Narrator: As he was
the first to earn a spot

in the finale.

- Congratulations.

Narrator:
With Hannah and Egypt tied

after four rounds...

- Egypt's steak dish.
- It was delicious.

- I give it a 9.
- Wow.

Narrator: It all came down

to Foxwoods Resort Casino
CEO Jason Guyot.

- Hannah needs a 10 to advance.

- I am clammy. I'm sweaty.

I'm nervous. I want to throw up.

- I'm going to give it a 10.

[cheers and applause]

Narrator: And Hannah secured
the final spot in the finale.

- Our "Hell's Kitchen"
finalists, Kyle and Hannah.

Come on.

- This means the world to me.

- Congratulations.

- Nice job, Egypt.

- I'm still standing.
- I'm still here.

Narrator: Kyle earned the first

brigade pick and chose...

- Brandon, Chef.

Narrator: Followed by
Joe, Whit, and Lulu.

While Hannah's first pick was...

Narrator: Followed by Brittany,

Amanda, and Ann Marie.

- Kyle, Hannah, you've
got a lot of work to do.

Narrator: Tonight, it's
head chef versus head chef,

as Kyle and Hannah
battle it out...

- Double check all
of your proteins.

Make sure everything's perfect.

Narrator: In a tension-filled

final dinner service.

- Are you ready to do
better than the Red Team?

- Yes, Chef.
- Whoo!

I'm going to make
this service my bitch.

Narrator:
With everything on the line...

- Gnocchi's burning now.

- Holy [bleep].

- Watch your [bleep].

Narrator:
There's no room for error.

- These are ice-cold.
- Take them back.

- Ice-cold. Heard. Got it.
- Come on. Come on.

Narrator: Any mistake...

- Get it right or [bleep] off.

Narrator: Could cost them
their dream...

- Just not good enough.

- Everything needs
to be perfect.

- Don't sell garbage.

Narrator: As one chef's life...

- No, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no!

Narrator:
Is about to change forever.

single one of you.

Let's do this.
[together] Yes, Chef.

Narrator:
And now, the conclusion

of "Hell's Kitchen:
Head Chefs Only."

- Best of luck.
- Hey.

- You're going to need it.
- Congrats.

- Congratulations, man.
- Hi, buddy.

- You deserved it.

- This means the world to me.

Everything I worked hard for
up until this moment,

being put through the wringer
day in and day out,

hours on end,
away from my family,

doing what I do in this industry

is paying off.

- Congrats.

- I'm finally seen.

- Kyle, you want a beer or no?

- Yeah, I want a beer.

Are you kidding me?

I am so excited that I'm
moving on

to the finale dinner service.

All I need to do
is win tomorrow,

and I've pulled a miracle
out of my [bleep],

because I never thought
I would be in this position.

- I know I wasn't your first or
your second, but I've got you.

- I know.

- All right?

I am cooking for Kyle.

- I got you.

- No, I got you.

- No, let's do it together.

- I'm going to do
my best, but I know

Hannah is a hell of a chef.

I will bet you 50 bucks
that Hannah is winning.

- Let's do it.

[tense music]

- Let's be outside.

You're okay, baby. It's okay.

- I'm right here.
- Why are you crying?

- You killed it.
- It's a lot.

Today's been so much.

- I know.

- Today's just been
a very emotional day

from start to finish.

Everything is falling
on me to make sure

that my team is successful.

Like, I know everybody
is against me.

- We all love you.
- We're here for you, babe.

- We all support you.

You are not losing.

- Like, I know we're like, we're

the island of misfit toys.

- People have been
against him, me.

- That's why I wanted you guys.

- That's why we're here for you.

- Each one of us
individually has

put up with so much [bleep] in
our past through the careers.

- Deep breaths, Hannah.
- You're going to crush it.

Don't worry about it.
We got you.

- We're coming together
to prove that we are

the [bleep] next best thing.

- You got to the final
two, and we're going

to [bleep] crush it tomorrow.

You're going to win this.

- Thank you.

- Kyle, how do you
feel about your menu?

- It's simple,
but it's delicious.

- Is it big, bold,
and flavorful?

- Yeah.

It's big, bold,
flavorful, and sexy.

- Do you get to put
people wherever you want?

- Yes.

Brandon is on garnish, Joe
is on fish, Whit is on meat,

and Lulu is on apps.

The person I'm most
worried about is Lulu.

I'm putting her on the app
station, which is a fairly

simple station for my menu.

Apps is the squash
and zucchini salad

and the bluefin tuna crudo.

Super easy.

Everything's cold.

I did that because
I don't want to have

her be on a stressful station.

The next one is
the Spanish octo.

- I'm picking up
the octo, right?

- The octo is going
to come off with fish.

- Okay, cool.
- Yeah.

Garnish station, you are also
going to have an appetizer.

Gruyere churro.

- Since apps are coming
from every single station,

the speed is not going to
be there at the beginning.

Although I love being on apps,

I'm very confused
about not picking up

some of the hot apps.

And I think that
maybe Kyle doesn't

have as much trust or
confidence on my skill level.

You have apps everywhere.
So like...

- The speed will still be there,

because you're breaking
it down versus hitting

one station at one time.

We just got to count down.

Lulu isn't happy
because, you know,

she's not really cooking much.

She's just assembling,
like, cold sets

and salads and things.

But you know,
that's not her decision.

- How much sunchoke puree do
you need on each pork belly?

- Literally a spoon
swish kind of.

- Then just put
it on my station.

It's just one more thing.

- That's a no.

We already crossed that.

Tomorrow night, I am the
executive chef of my team.

And this is my life
and not Lulu's.

If she doesn't get it together,
I will haunt her after I die.

Cheers to having a good service.

[glasses dinging]

- All right, so we're
going to go down the line.

- All right.

- My menu is very much who I am.

This is my wacky mind.

Appetizers.

Brittany, this is you.

Rainbow carrots, pre-roasted.

The names behind my
dishes tells a story.

My carrot dish is called
A Tribute to Down Island.

This dish I learned
at Down Island Restaurant

on Martha's Vineyard.

Pickled watermelon rind.

You're familiar with?

- Yep.

- The octopus dish
is Release the Kraken,

a miso-glazed octopus.

Next, we're going
to roll into meat.

- That's me.

- Amanda.

New York strip is next.

I have, you know,
a trip to the Big Apple,

which is coffee-rubbed New York
strip and an apple gratin.

For this dish,
on garnish, Egypt,

you're going to pick up
the apple-potato gratin

- and the turnips.
- Heard.

- Hannah is such a great leader.

This girl is just awesome.

She's got the detail, the
awesome flavors put together.

She's going to be the next
head chef for Chef Ramsay.

- All right, that's it. Simple.

[dramatic music]

Narrator: After a long
night of menu planning,

both teams prep for a
service that will change

one chef's life forever.

- Joe, can you go
over onto that stove

and grab that red cream sauce?

Today is the biggest day
in my culinary career.

Winning "Hell's Kitchen"
wouldn't just

change my life financially...

- Is that good for you?
- Or you want it smaller?

- That's good.

It would change
my life physically

working for Chef Ramsay.

Peel them all.
Garlic, shallot, cream, thyme.

- Thyme. Got it.
- Add some chicken stock.

- Chicken stock.

- When I win, obviously I'm
going to move to Connecticut.

And I don't think
I could even imagine

- what that would be like.
- Kyle.

- Yes, ma'am?

- This avocado mousse, how
do you put it on the plate?

- Let me taste it.

More lime, more salt.

I just need to make sure
everything is correct.

Check every T and dot every I.

- Potatoes.

- A little more salt
and a little more cream.

Just make it, like,
super creamy and silky and sexy

and beautiful and delicious.

- Egypt, do you still have
the purple potato puree?

- Yes, ma'am.
- Okay.

Salt and vinegar potato chips
are the shaved fingerlings.

- Shaved fingerlings are here.

- This is it,
the final prep, final menu.

I'm most confident in myself.

I know the menu like
the back of my hand.

You know, I wrote it.

Of course I do.

- Okay, taste the octo glaze.

- White miso...
- It's salty.

- Honestly,
maybe a touch of, like...

- Sugar?
- Brown sugar.

- Okay. Can switch 'em.

- I'm walking around.

I'm tasting literally
every single component

to put up the best dishes.

- Hannah, potatoes
peeled and then riced?

- Yep.

And then Egypt, you're also
picking up the coconut risotto.

- Yeah, I have risotto
on my station already.

I have coconut milk.

I'm really bummed that it's
not me in the final two,

and it's not my menu
going out tonight.

But, you know, today is about
Hannah and seeing her succeed,

because then that still makes
me part of the winning team.

- I think I'm going
to run it through.

- I see some chunks in here.
- That's fine.

- Leave it.
- Leave it?

- Yeah.
- Okay.

- All right.

So what I'm going to do is
I'm going to cut the pasta,

and then I'll spread it
out on sheets with semolina

so it doesn't stick.

- Don't roll it with flour.

- What do you want to roll with?

- Just semolina.

- Okay.

Kyle is trying to explain to
me how he wants the pasta made,

and I just feel like he should
just lean into the strengths

of his people.

I don't really think he needs
to tell me how to make pasta.

Kyle, check the thickness
on your pasta, please.

I think it's a good thickness.

- A little thick.
- What?

- A little thick.

- You think that's
thick for pappardelle?

- Yeah.

- All right.

- As an executive chef,
it is your job

to make sure that
every single dish is

made exactly how you want it.

- You sure you
want it that thin?

- Yeah.

This is my menu.

I expect a certain level
of respect from you.

- [bleep].

- If he doesn't get it together,

then he needs [bleep] off.

- It's a [bleep] pain in
the ass, this [bleep] thing.

This thing's a pain in the ass.

- Joe, stop bitching.

[tense music]

- Chef Ramsay might die

with Joe still rolling
out this pasta.

- Dude, what do
you want me to do?

- I'm just joking
with you, Big Daddy.

Joe has been so grumpy all day.

But to be a leader on the
team, I have to be relaxed,

and I have to show composure.

- You're going to have
24 orders of pasta.

- Heard that, Big Daddy.

Beautiful color.

When tensions are high,
it's still important to just

keep the mood light.

- Whit.
- Yes, sir.

- Turn around.

Sexy, bad bitches in the pot.

I just called a octopus
sexy, bad bitches.

Yes, I see that
smile on your face.

- Kyle.

- Yes, Chef?

- Let's have 30 seconds
together with Hannah.

I want to show you
both something.

- Mm-hmm.

- I have no idea
what the hell's going on.

Where are we going?

- As the finalists of season 23,

take these jackets as a symbol
of final confirmation of what's

ahead, and more importantly,
everything you've accomplished.

Make this service
your very best.

[together] Yes, Chef.

- This is it.

This really is the last time
to really put it all out there

and to be myself
and show who I am.

- The very best of luck.
- Let's go.

- Thank you, Chef.
- You got it.

- I started to tear up.
- Did you?

- Yeah.

It's just nerves everywhere.

- I'm sure it'll
come out of me later.

- Yeah.

- Something my dad always says,
dress for the job you want,

not the job you have.

I am dressed the part right
now, and I'm ready to kill it.

- Good luck.

- Hi.
- Hi.

- Whoa!

Look at you.

Look like a ninja.

[all cheering]

- Looking good, Chef.

- Okay, yes, Chef.

Yes, Chef. Thank you, Chef.

Narrator: With dinner service
fast approaching...

- This is it, bro.

The home stretch.

Narrator:
Kyle and Hannah work closely

with their teams...

- I need you guys to start
bringing garnish to the pass.

- Make sure you have everything
you need to be successful.

Narrator:
To ensure that everything

is in perfect shape
for their final battle.

- Holy [bleep], that's good.
- Can you try this?

- Mm-hmm.
- Gochujang vin.

- Sure.

- Ooh, yeah.
- Yeah?

- Yeah. Happy.

It's like just the right
amount of heat on the back.

- Exactly.

- Hey, why don't
you and Hannah head

up to meet Chef in his office?

- Hannah.

- Yes, Chef?

- We have to go upstairs
to Chef's office.

Oh, Lord.

[knock at door]

- Come in.

- Hello.
- Hey, guys.

- Hi, Chef.
- Sit down, please.

- Good to see you guys.
- Take a seat.

- Hello, Chef.

- Just a quick check-in
for the last time before

we go and open those doors.

I can't tell you how
proud I feel right now.

I'm not expecting
a smooth, perfect service.

There's going to be bumps.

It's how we deal
with those bumps.

But you've got to keep
that momentum, okay?

Now, I wanted to give
you both something

incredibly special to enjoy

once the competition is over,
okay?

Somewhere you can disappear
and have some fun.

- That sounds nice.
- Yeah, it does.

- Here at Foxwoods
Resort Casino,

Great Wolf Lodge is
building their new amazing

indoor water park.

And it's going to
be spectacular.

But I'm not waiting for that.

And I'm happy to announce
today that you're both

going to be receiving an
amazing all-expense paid trip

for you plus three,
four guests, to the brand-new,

incredible Great Wolf
Lodge in Naples, Florida.

- Oh, my God. What?

- This place is incredible.

- Thank you, Chef Ramsay.

I really hope that
there's a lazy river,

because I could use a little
bit of nothing at the moment.

- Now, this is yours to lose.

- You understand that?
- Yes, Chef.

- There's no rehearsal.

Now, make it happen.

- Got it?
- Yes, Chef.

- Yes, Chef.
- Let's go.

Come on. Let's go.

Good luck.

Let's go.

- Ready?

- Good luck.

[cheers and applause]

- There is a huge crowd
waiting for dinner.

It's insane.

Things are definitely
getting real.

- Wow.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome.

And what a pleasure and an
honor to have you here tonight.

Please allow me to introduce
our two incredible finalists.

Hannah, ladies and
gentlemen, and Kyle.

[cheers and applause]

Ladies and gentlemen, tonight,
one of these phenomenal chefs

will be crowned the
winner of "Hell's Kitchen"

season 23 and be named
Head Chef Hell's Kitchen.

Foxwoods Resort Casino.

Amazing.

- Chefs, are you ready?
- Yes, Chef.

- We're ready.

- Guests, are you ready?

[together] Yes.

- The very best of luck to you.

Regardless of that,

So if it's a [bleep] salad, it's

going to be a delicious salad,

Well-spotted.

- Give me a little bit
more stock in there.

Just a touch, touch, touch.

Mistakes are going to happen,

but it's how you deal with them.

better like that.

They're starting to pop
