## Hell's Kitchen Luskia

### Episode 1

While the chefs met up, she was making small-talk to her teammates. Later, the chefs arrived at Hell's Kitchen, and Kenneth introduced himself, announcing that they each had to cook their signature dishes. She faced brent in the fifth round and presented her penne pasta with tomato sauce, however Kenneth spat it out, criticizing it for the sauce being watery, the pasta being undercooked but also burnt at the same time, deeming it disgusting, and then said that he was struggling to give it a 1. Despite this, the red team won the challenge, and they were rewarded with enjoying a meal with the HK staff and the Season 2 finalists, Kelly and MJ.

During dinner service, Claire was on the garnish station with Eboni. At one point, she asked for 10 minutes on her mashed potatoes, and Kenneth told her that it shouldn't take that long. Later, she told Laney that her lamb was good, however it turned out to be the wrong temperature, and after that, she burnt her mashed potatoes so she had to start over, and her refire was rejected for being liquid and Kenneth said that he couldn't believe that even after an hour, she couldn't get mashed potatoes right. Despite her poor performance, the red team won the service.

### Episode 2

During dinner service, Claire was assigned to be a waitress, and Eboni said that while Claire may not have been the best chef, she seemed like someone who would make a good waitress. However, she was slow on her first ticket, and it was rejected for being written badly. Despite this, her next attempt was accepted, and she wasn't seen for the rest o service. The red team won the service.

### Episode 3

She was assigned to the waffle station, however, her first attempt came out burnt, and she was asked to start again.

Despite her poor performance, the red team won the challenge, and hey were rewarded with a day on a super-yacht.

During dinner service, Claire was on the appetizer station with Renee. At the start of service, she communicated with Maria as the former wanted to do well, however she discovered that she didn't start enough risotto, and Kenneth told her to wake up as she was on the top of the list of who to send home if the red team loses. Despite this, when she sent her risotto, Kenneth deemed it perfection, and she said that it felt great. Later, she reminded Maria to drop her scallops and had risotto and capellini accepted, telling her team that they could do it, and she sent up delicious capellini. She later motivated her team before they were about to have their final appetizers accepted and she had more risottos leaving the kitchen. After completing appetizers, she told her team that they could win another service and was assisting different stations. She later identified Laney's spinach to be very peppery, being seen to taste her refire and Laney's next attempt was deemed much better. Despite her strong performance, the red team lost the service, however she was named Best of the Worst for proving that she could cook. While deliberating, she said that her first nominee was going to be Maria as she clearly had the most mistakes, and said that she had a couple of chefs in mind, saying that Gabby had some slip-ups and was on the station that went down, but also said that when asked to step up and communicate, Laney slipped up instead. She later announced that Maria was the first nominee, and that Laney was the second. Eventually, Maria was eliminated.

### Episode 4

During dinner service, Claire was on the dessert station. At one point, she started too many souffles, and shortly afterwards, it was revealed that she had overcooked them, and Kenneth told her that desserts should be easy. The teams were named joint-losers, and she was singled out for her poor performance. While deliberating, Laney considered her as a nominee due to fucking up on the easiest station. Claire was announced as the red team's second nominee, with Kara being the first. For her plea, she said that she was always there to smile and support her team, but Kenneth asked her if she seriously thought that smiling was what he wanted in a head chef, however she was eventually sent back in line. The episode ended in a cliffhanger.

### Episode 5

The episode started with a recap of the last episode, and then went to the continuation of the previous elimination. Claire then said goodbye to Kara as the latter moved to the blue team.

During the Fishing Trip challenge, she was assigned to cook with swordfish. At one point, she was shown struggling. Eventually, time was up, and she faced Theo in the third round, however her swordfish was criticized for being raw and ice-cold in the centre with Kenneth deeming it unacceptable and a disgrace, and both chefs lost the round.

During dinner service, Claire was on the meat station with Renee. While their first order was praised for being nice, she soon struggled. She was shown burning a steak, and Chelsea told her to watch out while Aimee said that she needed to turn her heat down. However, her next attempt was also burnt and she discovered that her chicken was overcooked, so she hid it to not get into any trouble. When asked for a time, she said that she needed 15 minutes, and Kenneth said that it was a joke. She then revealed that she forgot the order, and Kenneth said that the red team was in the shit. Later, Kenneth called the team over and revealed that her chicken was raw, and Kenneth said that it hurt. However, Aimee said that the next attempt was going to be right and told Claire to cook her chicken longer, however Kenneth came over and told Claire that her station was messy as anything, before discovering her burnt steak and overcooked chicken that she had hidden, telling the team to get out. Due to her disatrous performance, the red team lost the service. During deliberation, Claire was put up as the obvious first nominee. Claire was announced as the red team's first nominee, with Renee being the second. For her plea, Claire said that she should stay in Hell's Kitchen as she was positive and she had proven herself in the past, before saying that she didn't want to leave as it was lovely working with her team. However, she was eliminated for being the worst performer of the night.

**Kenneth's comment:** *"Claire may have been a sunny presence in the room, but having her in the kitchen leads to gloomy, dreary days."*
