## Plot

### Recap

Last time, it was a double elimination. The people, Claire and Clementine, were eliminated.

### Before the Challenge

The episode starts in the Chinese Buffet, where the rest of the contestants are eating really good food made by Canadian Scout and Gaby. Canadian Scout says that this is a celebration for making it to the final three. The contestants start eating, but it is followed by an argument by Doris and Leo's Mom. In the argument, Leo's Mom tells Doris that she's obviously the better mom and not to choke on her food while explaining why Doris is better. Doris explains that she wasn't born with supernatural powers and calls Leo's Mom a little (censored). Miss Martin comments that they both suck because they've gotten two pre-merge eliminations. Leo's Mom and Doris says that she should not be sitting in this table and both say that they hate her. Miss Martin says that they including herself should not be at this table because they all hate each other. Leo's Mom requests that should have a food fight, which the rest of the contestants agrees to. Canadian Scout and Gaby see this.

**: Boris, Caillou, Rosie, I just want all of you to know that I'm doing this for you. I hope you're all cheering for me back home, another million dollars coming right up for the fam. (gets a phone call and answers it) Hello? Rosie?**

**: Never say the word fam again. You're in your 40's, also I totally heard about the dot eyes comment that you said to Leo's Mom, not cool.**

**: The first one eliminated last season to a potential finalist. It's a dream come true, but still, I'm disappointed in the fact that Miss Martin kinda carried me to the final three. Luckily though, I still had some moments to shine.**

**: Oh my goodness gracious, I, me, Miss Anne Martin made it to the final three. Yeah, obviously, I was going to make it to the final three. That million dollars is all mine.**

After Canadian Scout and Gaby saw the food fight, they think that they made too much food and leave the Chinese Buffet. Outside the Chinese Buffet, Gaby asks if they are finally going to watch the tape. Canadian Scout says that they need to know if they're alone or not, if Adam sees them watching the tape, they would be screwed. Gaby says that she's becoming seriously impatient and says that Canadian Scout must understand that. Afterwards, Adam says that it's time for the next challenge.

### Challenge

Adam congratulates the rest of the contestants on making it to the final three. But before they could start the challenge, Adam points out something "disturbing" from the last episode: Gaby didn't sing a final five song. So, Adam sings a final three song instead, but before he could finish, Miss Martin says to shut up. Adam announces that the challenge is a remix of the cooking challenge from season one. Doris says that this should get her an easy spot in the final two and narrates that she will cook her famous lasagna. Doris also says what's different about this challenge. Adam answers that instead of cooking for him, they will be cooking for world-renowned chef Gordon Ramsay. Upon seeing this, the rest of the contestants get super excited and compliment him heavily. Gordon Ramsay mentions that can one of them compliment because of his food. They then realize that they have to cook for Gordon Ramsay.

 **: Uh, wow, for like a decade, I've been watching failed restaurant owners or contestants being yelled and screamed by Gordon Ramsay on T.V, but now, that's (pause), that's going to be me. God, sometimes I wished I joined the cooking club when I was in high school.**

 **: Ah, yeah, so I'm totally going to win this challenge because I'm fantastic at cook-**

 **: Fat cap, cap, cap, cap, cap, cap!**

Gordon Ramsay also says that since this a cooking challenge, all of them have to wear chef attire and also says to put you hair into some kind of ponytail because he doesn't want to see hair in his food. Since only Doris' hair is not in a some kind of ponytail, she leaves to change it. Miss Martin says how incompetent she is and comments that if she is going to work as a librarian or something. Adam says that Gordon Ramsay will explain the rules of the challenge and has an announcement to make: Gaby and Canadian Scout are no longer interns because this is the penultimate episode and there's no reason for them to keep working as interns. Canadian Scout and Gaby are delighted by this. They also realize that they will be alone in the cabins.

 **: Yes! (holding the tape and VCR)**

When Gordon Ramsay entered the restaurant, he immediately insults about the restaurant smelling like diarrhea and vomit. Adam says that this show doesn't use that kind of language. Gordon Ramsay says that they're in the real world and not in elementary school. He explains the first challenge: just make any kind of dish you want and serve it to him. At Leo's Mom's kitchen, she comments on how this kitchen looks like a household kitchen, but since she wants to save her signature dish for the second part, she requests herself that she should make something simple. Leo's Mom considers that since it's ten a.m in the morning, she assumes that Gordon Ramsay hasn't ate breakfast yet and cooks her favorite: sausage and pancakes.

At Doris' kitchen, she holds back the lasagna for the second part and thinks about her second favorite food, something that signifies her relationship with Boris. She thinks about Boris telling her his favorite topping on pizza: beer (I think?). He says that it makes the taste stronger. Doris says that she wasn't exactly thinking about that, but she remembers it was margherita pizza. When she checks the fridge, she is greeted with disappointment when she sees that the ingredients are absolute garbage.

At Miss Martin's kitchen, she comments on how simple the food that they're cooking and makes fun of it.

 **: Most of you probably don't know that I had a bit of culinary background before becoming a teacher. You might have seen me working at a very well known and highly rated restaurant called McDonald's. Oh, but my absolute favorite food to make was my mardi gras gumbo. A lot of people love it and I'm sure Ramsay will love it more than whatever Leo's Mom and Doris is serving.**

Back at Miss Martin's kitchen, she kind of forgets where she's supposed to cook the gumbo with. She decides to cook it with the microwave instead of the stove. At Leo's Mom's kitchen, she is done with her sausage and pancakes and taste tests it. Doris regrets not bringing a phone because she's been waiting for the pizza for 15 minutes. Afterwards, her pizza is done and swears if Adam doesn't have oven mitts, she probably will do something bad to him.

After all of the contestants' dish is done, they are seen standing with food covers and a plate. Gordon Ramsay picks Doris first and eats the margherita pizza with bubbly crust, crushed San Marzano tomato sauce, spinach, fresh mozzarella with basil, a drizzle of olive oil, and a lack of tomato slices. Gordon Ramsay is stunned by this and gets his utensils.

 **: Yeah, I still have no idea why he eats pizza and burgers like he's eating a steak, but it does make me feel a bit special with a T.V personality eating food so delicately and all.**

Gordon Ramsay says that the taste is awesome and she should go back in line. At the line, Leo's Mom and Miss Martin get into an argument about their food and get super angry with each other. Gordon Ramsay says that they aren't first graders and they are middle-aged women. He also says to act like one.

 **: I think I'm going to get the knife.**

It's now Leo's Mom turn. Gordon Ramsay says at her that it definitely does the job and thinks that she could have done much better. Afterwards, it is Miss Martin turn and Leo's Mom sarcastically says to show her 5-star masterpiece.

 **: She better have not said that sarcastically. Everybody loves my mardi gras gumbo.**

When Miss Martin reveals her dish, Gordon Ramsay comments that it looks like poop (censored)

**: Did ... did he ... say a cuss?**

Miss Martin says that she makes this for her book club all the time and they "love" it. She also tells that she cooked it for her class one time. Doris says Miss Martin's food was the reason Caillou got to the hospital for extreme food poisoning and Leo's Mom said that was also the reason why Leo got his stomach pumped. Gordon Ramsay cusses at Miss Martin for serving this to children and obviously not eat it.

Back at the cabins, Gaby and Canadian Scout is finished packing their bags. They hook up the VCR to the T.V and watch the tape. In the tape, Adam says that he made some significant progress at his project, but before the viewers find out, it cuts out and the camera is now in the Chinese Buffet. Gordon Ramsay says that Doris probably won't have any problems at the next part of the challenge, says to Leo's Mom might have some problems in the kitchen, and for Miss Martin, he says that she needs heavy monitoring. Miss Martin angrily says that she will heavily monitor his dying career when she sues him for everything. In response, Gordon Ramsay curses at her.

 **: I can't believe I'm being spoken to like this! Grrrrrrrrr! That's it, I'm never having a crush on a T.V personality ever again!**

Miss Martin and Gordon Ramsay argue until Adam commands them to stop. They stop and Gordon Ramsay explains the rules of the second challenge outside. He says that he invited their loved ones to visit them. The people who come: Leo's Mom's mom, Miss Martin's mom and Doris' cousin Bella.

 **: Okay, so if you don't know, when I was a little girl, I had to watch my little cousin Bella while my parents were at a party. When we were getting ready for bed, she squeezed a whole gallon of toothpaste on herself and blamed it on me, and my parents believed her of course. She thought me getting grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded for 200 years was so funny, that she decided to make every family thanksgiving dinner miserable by getting me into trouble for something I didn't do. So, yeah, obviously we don't get along.**
