Hell's Kitchen Season 24 Episode 8: What happened during the latest Challenge, followed by the Dinner Service twist?

The recently released Hell's Kitchen Season 24 Episode 8 featured the remaining participants, including:

• Blue Team: Anthony, Chris, Jayden, Henry,
• Red Team: Alexandra, Anaiya, Cara Marie, Cydni, Ellie, Jada, Lisa.

The Challenge featured in the episode was to find out ingredients hidden in license plates. The team that manages to learn the ingredients could either keep them or assign them to their opposite team. Team Blue was the first one to decode the ingredients and then advanced further.

Soon, they moved to the kitchen and had 45 minutes to prepare their dishes. For that, Hell's Kitchen participants had to work with one of the three types of proteins. Since Team Red had an extra participant, they had to skip one of the dishes.

For Atlantic Cod, Alexandra, Anthony, Chris, and Cara Marie earned one point. Henry, Cydni, and Ellie also earned one point each for Pork Chop. For Lamb, Jada got one point, while Jayden and Anaiya didn't receive any points.

After the challenge ended, there was a tie. Gordon noted that Henry's plate was standout. He also noted that Lisa's dish, which was dropped, might have won them the challenge. As a result, Blue Team won.

Hell's Kitchen Season 24 Episode 8: No Dinner Service, but an unexpected showdown between the lowest-scoring participants

For the dinner service, Gordon Ramsay announced a twist. He noted that the lowest-scoring participants would compete against each other. This included Jayden, Chris, Cara Marie, and Ellie.

"I've called you down for a very, very important reason. Tonight there will be no dinner service. But the competition will continue. I am analyzing everything you do here in Hell's Kitchen, your dinner services and, of course, your challenges as individuals. Tonight, the four chefs who have scored the lowest in challenges will now be cooking for their life," announced Gordon Ramsay.

All four participants decided to go with a fish. Witnessing their decision, the remaining chefs were concerned. Fans must remember, there have been multiple instances related to fish preparations throughout various dinner services.

Ellie and Jayden were given a salmon dish. Gordon Ramsay appreciated Ellie's dish. The next ones were Cara Marie and Jayden. Cara Marie's halibut turned out to be a fine dish. However, her mashed potatoes didn't work out so well.

After tasting, Chef Ramsay announced Cara Marie's dish as the weakest dish of the night. As a result, Cara Marie was eliminated from Hell's Kitchen. After her elimination was announced, Gordon noted:

"Even as a vegan chef, Cara Marie could cook proteins beautifully. Ironically, tonight it was the vegetables that did her in."

After Cara Marie's elimination, 11 chefs advanced in the competition.
