* First

**Amy Shields** is a contestant on Hell's Kitchen Season 28, she finished in 11th place.

## Personality

Amy has a sarcastic personality combined with a dry sense of humor, though she is a decent person and a passionate cook beneath all that.

## Season 28

### Episode 1

Amy entered Hell's Kitchen with the other contestants ready to show that she was still a good cook despite having limited experience in the kitchen, commenting that she was going to be the wild child of the Red Team compared to all the prim and proper contestants on the Red Team.

Amy's Halibut En Crute went up against Carson's Squid Adobo, it was arguably Amy's dish that started the Red Team's downfall in the challenge as her undercooked fish scored her dish a two, allowing the men to pull the challenge back, the Red Team went on to lose the challenge to Amy's frustration, noting that Chloe was lucky that she hated it in Brooklyn.

Amy was later seen chatting with Zara in the dorms and assuring the YouTuber that it was just the first day when she admitted to feeling intimidated by Jazz and Jamie.

### Episode 2

Amy wasn't seen much during the burger challenge and her burger wasn't selected for tasting, though she was seen being envious of Jazz after she won the pass for the Red Team.

Amy and Zara were on the desert station during the opening night's service, as the main problems were elsewhere in the kitchen Amy and Zara escaped notice and weren't put up for nomination.

### Episode 3

Amy was paired with Zoey for the crab relay challenge and the duo slowed down the Red Team's momentum allowing the Blue Team to catch up with them and the Red Team ultimately lost the challenge.

Amy was on the appetizer section that night with Jamie and got the team off to a strong start in spite of Kimmie's struggles on the fish station, despite this and the argument that broke out between Jazz and Kimmie the Red Team were able to win their first service.

### Episode 4

Despite being excited for the challenge by stating that she was trained in a Southern Style restaurant, Amy's run of bad luck in challenges continued when her Chicken Fried Steak was served raw and with a pre-made BBQ Sauce, much to Amy's frustration.

Amy opted to stay behind when Steve used his punishment pass to join the women on the drag race stating that she didn't have a driver's license due to being a lifelong New Yorker, during the punishment she nearly came to blows with Vince after he made a sexist remark within earshot of her before openly questioning the Blue Team on how they tolerated someone like him, she also admitted that she was a lesbian, stating that shit like this was why she preferred dating women to men.

Amy was on appetizers for the second night in a row with Kayla and managed to get past the apps despite Zara's struggles on garnish, she later took over the garnish station from Zara after she was kicked out and the Red Team went onto lose the service.

Amy wasn't nominated that night, instead being asked by Ramsey to name the nominees, she was seen happily applauding Zara after her passionate plea saved the YouTuber from elimination.

### Episode 5

Amy wasn't seen much during the breakfast service challenge but congratulated Zara on her comeback.

Amy was on garnish with Kayla and did well in the service, giving Zara encouragement to continue to do well after she got the first meat order out (though expressing frustration at Zara getting in her head again), she was relieved to see Jazz return to service after her injury and urged the Aussie to take it easy as she worked through it.

The Red Team won the service and Amy wasn't nominated.

### Episode 6

Amy stated that she wasn't much of a sports fan in general before taking part in the football part of the challenge, the Steak challenge would prove to be another disaster for Amy as she overcooked her New York Strip, ruining what was otherwise a good dish and only tied the round because Troy had his own problems with his steak.

The Red Team lost the award and Amy was seen hard at work in the punishment, Amy was on the desert section that night and wasn't seen much aside from facepalming when she learned that Kenny had served raw chicken to Chef Ramsey's wife and was shocked when she learned of Jazz's conduct in the dining room.

The Red Team lost the service and Amy wasn't nominated for elimination.

### Episode 7

Following Jazz's transfer to the Blue Team Amy seemed to really come into her own as she made her first good challenge dish during the dogpen challenge, as her Asian Style Crab Cakes received praise from Ramsey, however it didn't win her the point as her dish lost out to Max's lobster dish, the Red Team went on to win the challenge after Zara's steak dish beat Jazz's.

Amy was on the fish station that night and did well, Amy helping her teammates get apps out, the Red Team went on to win the service.

### Episode 8

Amy's streak continued in the Spell's Kitchen challenge and in a big way, with Amy not only finally earning a point but winning the challenge for the Red Team with her crispy skin pork belly.

Amy's luck would seemingly run out during service however as she had a miserable time on apps thanks to Zoey's refusal to communicate, they got kicked out leading to a domino chain that left Harper, Tyson and an injured Jazz to finish service with the Sous Chefs.

Amy was nominated for the first time that night alongside Zoey, Carson and Mike, she was ultimately sparred from elimination as Ramsey felt that the problems were more Zoey's fault than hers but warned Amy to wake up and quickly.

### Episode 9

Whilst Carson was getting used to his new teammates Amy was frustrated, both at being nominated for the first time and how bad the service had gone, Jamie urged her to keep fighting and use her anger as motivation.

Amy faced off against Mike in the first round of the Blind Taste Test with Jazz and Jamie in the hotseat, Amy admitted in a confession cam that she was a smoker and felt that she was at a disadvantage in a challenge like this and sure enough? Both she and Mike would send Jazz and Jamie into the tank by scoring a 0/5.

The Red Team lost the Blind Taste Test to the Blue Team after Zara and Jazz got perfect scores but Tyson broke his leg whilst on the award, taking him out of the competition, Amy admitted that whilst Tyson was one of her competition, she didn't want to see anyone get taken out like that and wished him luck in his recovery.

Despite Carson claiming that the Red Team were dedicating their next service to Tyson, Amy's service performance continued it's sharp decline and she got kicked out alongside Harper, both women were nominated that night but were ultimately sparred as Ramsey felt that he couldn't eliminate anyone tonight after Tyson's injury.

### Episode 10

Amy admitted during her chat with Harper that her parents had disowned her for coming out as a lesbian, leading Jamie to reassure Amy that she was among friends no matter what happened, something Amy was thankful for.

During the craps challenge Amy had the misfortune of rolling X on the die and unable to think of any other ingredients she named XO Sauce, this choice would come back to haunt the Blue Team as Amy's dumplings dish was easily trounced by Jazz's jerk chicken.

During punishment Amy got into a nasty argument with Harper, one that not even Jamie in full mom mode was able to diffuse and Chef Christina had to step in to get the chefs back on track however the argument boiled over into service and got nastier when Harper said that Amy's leg should've been broken instead of Tyson's.

Amy and Harper were up for elimination for the second week in a row, whilst Amy was on her third straight nomination, Harper was eliminated for starting the fight and her declining performances in service.

### Episode 11

Amy informed Jazz and Zara about the argument between her and Harper and the comment that ultimately led to Harper's elimination, appalling her former teammates in the process with Jazz outright saying that she had lost all respect for Harper.

Amy went up against Steve and Troy in the bison round of the game meats challenge and whilst she admitted that bison wasn't something she cooked with regularly, however whilst her bison tartare tasted good, it was ultimately beat by Steve and Troy's efforts and the Red Team went on to lose the challenge.

Amy's bad run of luck in challenges would end up being her undoing after she was put in the Cook for Your Life Challenge against Zara, Mike and Carson, whilst Mike's paella was bad Amy had arguably committed a worse mistake by leaving several pinbones in her salmon resulting in her elimination.

### Episode 19

Mike couldn't make it to the finale so the producers brought it Amy to replace him, she was Jazz's penultimate pick for her finale team and wasn't happy to learn that she would be on the same team as Harper again.

## Trivia

Amy is the only LGBT contestant this season, admitting that she was a lesbian and dating a woman back home.

## Post Hell's Kitchen

Amy ended up moving out of New York with her girlfriend as they both wanted to put as much distance between them and Amy's parents as possible, Amy now lives in Canada where she works at the same restaurant as Season 29 contestant Freya Foxworth and has since married her girlfriend, the couple plans to adopt a kid in the near future but Amy wants to concentrate on her culinary career first.

She would later make amends with Harper after the older chef admitted that she was in the wrong, it wasn't enough for Harper to be invited to Amy's wedding as she had already gotten married by that point but they are still on good terms again.

Amy was a guest of Jazz's for her wedding in Season 29, notably being the only non Black Jacket contestant to be invited, this allowed her to reunite with Freya briefly as Freya was a Blue Team chef at that point.

## Quotes

“Some of these girls are looking prim and proper, I’m just here to cook for Chef Ramsey, I’ll worry about my looks later!” (Amy's first confession cam)

“Wow, you certainly have a unique style about you young lady.”

“It was either be the wild child or be the prim and proper gal at school, I chose the latter!”

“Clearly, describe your dish."

“It’s a Halibut En Crute served with a red wine sauce.”

“Two elements on the dish, the fish wrapped in pastry and the sauce, nowhere to hide.”

“I like to think I’m a risk taker chef.”

“Well, this was a risk that didn’t pay off, the fish is overcooked and the pastry is still raw, the only thing saving you from a one is the sauce, which is bloody delicious, unfortunately the hero of the dish should’ve been the halibut so I can’t go higher than a two either.”

“Thank you chef.”

“Unfortunately for you, I’m not looking for a saucier.”

“Yes chef.” (Amy's dish gets criticized by Ramsey)

“Ugh, the one time I absolutely needed to nail that dish and I completely fucked it up! I hope my fellow New Yorker Chloe can turn things around for us because we’re screwed otherwise!” (Amy's confession cam after her dish gets tasted)

“And we’re screwed! And frankly? Chloe’s lucky that I hate it in Brooklyn.” (Amy's confession cam after Chloe's dish gets destroye

“Southern Cuisine? Sweet! I may be a New Yorker but I got my training at a southern style restaurant, this is my redemption night!” (Amy tempting fate via the confession cam)

“Amy, you’re up next, who do you want to take on?”

“Let’s see if the old dog knows Southern Cuisine, Vince? You’re up.”

“Always up for a challenge sweetheart.”

“Which country singer do you pick?”

“I’ll go with Charlene chef.”

“Sweet Chicken Fried Steak, where the meat is so tender.”

“Chicken Fried Steak, excited?”

“Hell yeah!”

“Let’s do it!” (Vince and Amy get their Southern Cuisine dishes)

“Amy, describe your dish.”

“What I’ve prepared for you today is a Chicken Fried Ribeye served with a BBQ Sauce and triple cooked fries.”

“How were you able to make a BBQ Sauce in the time allotted?”

“Err, I didn’t, I grabbed a bottle of premade stuff.”

“And you expect us to eat that when you don’t even know what went into your sauce?”

“I know what into my sauce! I read the ingredients.”

“Unfortunately the pre-made BBQ Sauce is the least of your dish’s problems, because the steak is raw.”

“Sorry chefs.” (Amy’s dish gets destroyed by Chef Ramsey and Chef Aaron

“FUCK! I may have just cost my team the win with that premade shit and not making sure the steak was cooked properly! Knowing my luck? The rest of the red team will see me as a weak link now!” (Amy’s confession cam after her disastrous dish)

"Okay, dining room's clean, let's get the kitchens prepped boys."

"Yeah, sounds good sweetheart." (Vince shakes his head) "Dumb broad, at least she's in the kitchen where she belongs."

"THE FUCK DID YOU YOU JUST SAY?!" (Vince spins around and sees a clearly enraged Amy storming up to him) "Don't act dumb, you weren't even trying to hide that comment."

"Maybe if you produced a decent challenge dish once in a while you'd have a leg to stand on sweetheart!"

(Amy pulls her fist back, ready to throw it) "Give me a reason you piece of shit, give me a fucking rea........"

"HEY! HEY!" (Carson and Max quickly get in between Amy and Vince) "Babe, he's not worth it, let it go."

"Carson's right, he's not worth you getting disqualified over."

(Amy shakes her head before storming off to calm down and the rest of the Blue Team (sans Vince) follow her) "how do you guys put up with the dickbag? Honestly?!"

"We're still figuring that out ourselves." (Max shakes his head) "Are you going to be okay?"

"You mean besides that idiot reminding me why I realized that I was a lesbian a few months ago? Yeah, I'll be okay!" (Amy nearly comes to blows with Vince)

"If you had told me this morning that the elimination would come down to Jazz and Kenny with a real chance of Jazz going home? I would've called you insane! But that's the way things go around here and I'm interested in seeing how Jazz does in the Blue Team!" (Amy's confession cam after Kenny's elimination)

"Amy, what have you prepared?"

"What I've got here is some Asian Style Crab Cakes with a Spring Onion Salad."

"Visually they look nice." \*Ramsey tries the crab cakes\* "Let's be honest your run of luck in challenges has been shocking."

"Yes chef, I've been beating myself up everyday since I got here for it."

"Well, I've got some good news, that is your best dish in the competition so far."

\*Amy does a double take\* "Really?!"

"Really! The crab cakes are cooked perfectly and the salad is delicious and textually interesting, do you have anything to say to that?"

"Just one question."

"Go ahead?"

"If this is a dream and I'm about to be woken up by someone, would I be DQued for punching them? Even if it's Zara?"

"Why me?!"

"I felt the pain from your sequel just as much as Jamie!"

\*Chef Ramsey laughs\* "I am not answering that question, but if you keep this up you might be the one to beat, well done." )Amy's challenge dish finally gets a positive score)

"I got a positive review yesterday but didn't get the job done, this pork belly is going to change that for the better, just watch!" (Amy is confident about her pork belly dish)

"Amy, you produced one of the best dishes yesterday, are you about to go two for two?"

"That's the plan chef!"

"Describe your dish."

"What we've got here is a crispy skin pork belly severed with maple syrup glazed apples, a sweet chilli jam and red wine braised tomatoes."

"Even just by looking at the protein I can see how crispy that is, how did you get it so crispy?"

"I made sure that was the first component I prepared, I seasoned it with salt, pepper and garlic powder and let it ride in the oven at a high temp whilst I prepared my sides,took it out ten minutes before time was up and let it rest whilst I finished the other components."

\*Ramsey tries the dish\* "Young lady I don't know what Jazz's transfer to the Blue Team has done to you but you have finally arrived in the competition, there is nothing I can fault on that plate, where has this been hiding?"

"I don't know chef, I haven't even been cooking that long, in fact I'm pretty sure Zara is the only one with less experience than me at this point, it just took me a while to find my voice in these challenges and it's finally paid off."

"Whatever you do, don't lose that voice because your stock in this competition has just skyrocketed." (Amy produces another killer dish)

"Amy, what happened on apps tonight?!"

"I have no excuses chef, I tried to get anything out of Zoey but she wasn't communicating with anyone!"

"That was the first time I've seen you frazzled during service, can you recover from this?"

"Yes chef, I am extremely embarrassed by how tonight's service ended and the fact that I'm up here at all sickens me! I am a fighter chef and if you give me another chance I'll do good on my potential from now on!" (Amy's first elimination plea)

"Zoey, we just heard Amy's version of events, let's hear yours?"

"I don't know why Amy is throwing me under the bus but the communication problems were with her, not me."

"Bullshit! I was communicating with everyone else on the Red Team, you clammed up whenever we needed anything from you!"

"I was vocal!"

"Saying "I' got this" isn't enough Zoey! This isn't our first day in the competition, we should know better by now!"

"If only you ladies communicated so well during service!"

"Exactly my point chef." (Amy gets into an argument with Zoey at elimination)

"This is hard, because of the domino effect that you four caused in your respective kitchens I should send all four of you home! But I've made my choice, my decision is............." (Amy, Zoey, Carson and Mike tense up) "Amy." (Amy hangs her head as she starts to take off her jacket) "I haven't given up on you, but you need to wake up, quickly! Back in line."

"Yes chef." (Amy breathes a massive sigh of relief before returning to her teammates)

"Carson, Mike?" (the two men look up) "Back in line, Zoey, take your jacket off, your time is done in Hell's Kitchen." (Amy is sparred from elimination)

"God damn it, what got into me tonight?!"

"Amy?"

"Oh, hey Jamie, feel free to take a guess as what I'm pissed about now."

"Your performance in the service?"

"Yeah, especially after I did so well in the past two challenges, I know I'm better than that but that bullshit with Zoey dragged me down!"

"Look, your a talented girl but this isn't going to help you in the long run, try to use that anger to push you forward, Ramsey himself said that he hasn't given up on you and neither have I."

"Thanks Jamie." (Amy gets another pep talk)

"So I'm not gonna lie, I've been dreading the Blind Taste Test because I'm a smoker! I know that being a chef and a smoker is a bad mix but let's be honest, this job can get fucking stressful!" (Amy's confession cam after the Blind Taste Test starts

"What did I tell ya? Now Jamie is in the tank and I'm sure her niece is laughing her ass off! But it's still the first round, we can bounce back from this right?" (Amy's confession cam after her performance sends Jamie into the tank)

"Man, Tyson was one of my competition and all but no one deserves to be eliminated like that! Okay, maybe Vince but he's long gone! My point is, I'd rather see them go home on their own feet, not on a stretcher!" (Amy's confession cam after she learns of Tyson's elimination)

"Amy, this is the second time in a row that your up here."

"Well aware of that chef."

"What's going on with you? You could at least blame Zoey for your mistakes last night but you were flying solo on fish tonight!"

"I have no excuses, I know I fucked up and I know I deserve to be up here! But I will get better, I just need another chance!" (Amy fights for her life again)

"Amy, Harper, I can't do this." (Amy and Harper exchange surprised looks) "Both of you, back in line." (Amy and Harper quickly return to the Red Team) "I can't eliminate any of you in good faith after what happened to Tyson, you both know that you weren't at your best tonight but I'm sparring you because we've already lost one chef."

"Thank you chef."

"Appreciate it."

"But make no mistake, unless another injury of that magnitude happens I won't be that merciful again, you are both on thin ice and I'm not sure if you can recover as quickly as Zara did after her nomination, prove me wrong, or get your bags packed, it's that simple."

"Yes chef." (Amy survives another elimination)

"Well look on the brightside Amy, our careers are going to skyrocket just from being on this show." \*Amy shakes her head as she leans back in the chair\* "I know my parents will have my back when I get home."

"Lucky bitch."

"Excuse me?"

"I said you're a lucky bitch! Some of us don't have that luxury! Some of us got thrown out on our asses because their parents didn't accept them for who they are! Some of us had to be saved from homelessness by their lover!"

"You're talking about yourself, aren't you?"

"No shit Sherlock! When I came out as gay I got into a huge argument with my parents that ended with me being kicked out of the family,, my girlfriend was the only one who looked out for my best interests and it's because of her that I'm not homeless right now!" (Amy shakes her head) "She encouraged me to get into cooking and that led me to where I am today."

"Amy, that's just awful." \*Amy turns around and realizes that Jamie heard the whole thing\* "I'm sorry you had to go through that."

"Thanks Jamie." \*Amy lets out an angry sigh\* "I owe a lot to that girl, part of the reason I applied was so that I could give something back to her after I won, you know, to thank her for everything?"

"I'm sure she knows how thankful you are Amy." \*Jamie puts a comforting hand on Amy's shoulder\* "But just remember, you are among friends here no matter what, we'll have your back alright?"

"Sure." (Amy vents about her relationship with her parents)

"Come on, gimme something good!" \*Amy rolls the dice and waits for it to stop, when it does?" \*X?!"

"Ten seconds, quickly."

"Err, shit! XO Sauce!" \*the rest of the red team exchange uncertain looks\* "Sorry guys, I literally blanked on any other ingredient that started with x."

"We'll make it work, don't worry." (Amy throws a curveball into the Red Team's dish)

"What the hell am I supposed to do with XO Sauce, I don't cook Asian Cuisine, I order it from a takeout! I have been practicing how to make dumplings so maybe that's my way out of this mess!" (Amy's confession cam whilst she cooks her dish)

"Amy, you have a high bar to meet, describe your dish."

"These are pork dumplings with a dipping sauce."

"Have you made dumplings before?"

"I've been practicing them at home, and it was the only thing I could think off."

"How did you make the sauce?"

"I literally just added everything that wasn't pork to the XO Sauce as it was cooking and hoped that it came together."

\*Ramsey picks up one of the dumplings\* "Technique is good on the dumplings, let's taste the sauce." \*Ramsey dips the dumping into the sauce and tries it, and promptly spits it out\* "Did you taste that?!"

"No chef, I ran out of time."

"That is one of the worst sauces I have tasted all season! The dumpling tastes good but you ruined it with that sauce! Jazz, Blue Team, congratulations, you just won the challenge!" (Amy's mistake costs the Red Team the challenge)

"I swear, the Hell's Kitchen gods have it out for me sometimes! Not only did I get put against two of the strongest Blue Team members in Steve and Troy but my bison dish didn't earn a point! God, I wish I could catch a fucking break just once!" (Amy's confession cam after losing to Steve and Troy in the game meats challenge)

"Err, Amy? Babygirl? Gordon wants a chat."

"If that's your idea of a joke Carson, it ain't funny!"

"No joke, he's been talking with everyone in his office, including me just now."

"Your serious aren't you?" \*Amy stretches her arms before getting out of her seat\* "Thanks for the heads up, feel free to keep my chair warm for me." \*Amy makes her way to Gordon's office\* "You wanted to see me?"

"Yes, please take a seat Amy." \*Amy sits down in front of Gordon's desk\* "You have been a roller-coaster in this competition, when you did badly in challenges, you did well in services, but when you started to turn out good challenge dishes your performance on the line started declining, do you know why?"

"I honestly don't have an answer, at least not one I haven't said already like the fact that I haven't been in this industry for very long." \*Amy lets out a deep breath\* "I know I'm a good cook, I know I can burn on the line, but I haven't been able to show that since I got here."

"I have seen you at your best, you are a talented young lady, but I fear the time for you to prove yourself as a chef is running out." \*Amy solemnly nods in response as she folds her arms\* "One last thing, who do you think are the weakest remaining members of the Red Team."

"I'm not stupid enough to name myself, but I will say Kayla and Carson, I think Kay's been slipping lately and I haven't really been impressed by Carson since he switched teams."

"Thank you Amy, please go back to the dorms, you and the other contestants will hear from me soon." \*Amy nods before leaving the office\* (Amy's performance analyses)

"GOD DAMN IT!"

"Amy, what's wrong?"

"What's wrong? I completely fucked up the salmon I was filleting for my dish!"

"Let me see it." (Amy shows Christina the mangled salmon side) "You know how much that stuff costs, right?"

"That's another reason why I'm angry at myself." \*Amy lets out a deep breath\* "How long do I have in the challenge?"

"Just over forty minutes."

"Be right back," \*Amy bolts for the pantry and returns with another salmon side\* "I don't know if I'll have time to pinbone in properly but if I leave off the salmon fillet all I'll have to show for the past 75 minutes is the tomato broth I've been cooking in that pot."

\*Christina smells the broth\* "Are you sure? Because the broth smells delicious on it's own."

"This was the first dish I made for my girlfriend after I moved in with her, I'm not serving an incomplete version no matter what."

"Well, good luck and I'll leave you to it." (Amy has problems filleting her salmon)

"Amy, let's taste your dish." \*Amy brings her dish up and unveils it\* "That looks outstanding, what is it?"

"It's a pan roasted salmon with a tomato broth, I learned this dish from a Spanish Chef I was taught under at culinary school and it was the first dish I made for my girlfriend after I moved in with her."

"What's your girlfriend's name?"

"Macy, I frankly owe my life to her, she took me in after I came out as gay to my parents and they disowned me."

"I'm sorry to hear that, but you are in a far better place, yes?"

"Absolutely, I live with the woman I love and I plan to marry her someday, more importantly? She supports me in my culinary career."

\*Ramsey tries the dish\* "Broth is absolutely delicious, that alone would make it the best dish you've cooked in the competition so far, the salmon is glistening an........." \*Ramsey frowns as he picks up a pinbone from the salmon\* "Oh dear."

"Fuck!"

\*Ramsey finds several other pinbones in the salmon\* "You did pinbone the salmon, right?"

"That's not the first salmon I filleted today, but the first one was such a hatchet job that I had to go grab a second one from the pantry, I didn't have enough time to properly pinbone it."

"It's a shame because that is easily your best dish in the competition but I there's no excuse for pinbones in a salmon."

"I'm so sorry chef."

"Please, go back in line." \*Amy nods before rejoining the others\*

"Carson, Zara, you two are absolutely safe, please head up to the dorms."

"Yes chef."

"Thank you chef." \*Zara and Carson return to the dorms\*

"Amy, Mike, sadly one of you has reached the end of the road, Mike, your paella looked good but the rice was burnt and inconsistently cooked."

"Yes chef."

"Amy, that dish was absolutely delicious, but you left several pinbones in your salmon."

"Yes chef."

"The person who is remaining in the competition is........." \*Amy and Mike take deep breaths\* "Mike." \*Amy puts her head in her hands as it sets in\* "Amy, I'm sorry but you've reached the end of the road."

"Understood chef." \*Amy wipes away a tear of frustration before getting a hug from Mike\* "Go do what you do best Mike."

"Same to you." \*Mike heads up to the dorms leaving Amy with Chef Ramsey\*

"Young lady, your dream of winning Hell's Kitchen may be over but I don't want your culinary dream to end, promise me you'll keep cooking."

"You haven't seen the last of me chef, you can bank on it."

"Good, you are a passionate young cook and you should never lose site of that, good luck in your next endever but I'm going to need your jacket." \*Amy sighs before removing her jacket and handing it to Ramsey\* "Good night." \*Ramsey extends a handshake to Amy and she takes it\*

"Good night" \*Amy leaves\* (Amy is eliminated in the Cook for Your Life Challenge)

“Being on Hell’s Kitchen was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done but I’d definitely do it all again if I could! I’m proud of my girl Zara for coming as far as she did, I just wish I could still be on that journey with her! For now? I’m gonna head home and pick myself back up!” (Amy's elimination statement)
