Chef Ramsay announces that the 16 contestants must successfully complete the opening dinner service, but he may be forced to eat his words.

The team with the most properly cooked eggs wins a helicopter tour of Los Angeles; when a chef gets into an argument with Ramsay, it threatens a team.

The teams face a tricky challenge when they must create dishes using ingredients chosen by the roll of a die. What will they produce using halibut, endive, bacon, shallots, mangoes and turnips? The team which makes the tastiest dishes win a skydiving prize, while the losers are stuck with cleaning and prep work. At evening service, the contestants cook for actress Debi Mazar and her chef husband.

The remaining contestants are challenged to prepare lunch for cheerleaders and members of the marching band from the University of Southern California. The winners bag a day at the beach with Gordon and his family, while the losers are stuck with cleaning up rubbish. Simple mistakes cause problems at evening service, leading to strong words from Gordon. Who will be eliminated today?

The remaining contestants are challenged to prepare meals for a fiftieth wedding anniversary celebration. Each team must come up with a new twist on the dishes the happy couple had at their wedding reception five decades ago, before catering the anniversary party for evening service. When it comes to elimination time, Chef Ramsay provides some shocks.

The teams are challenged to catch pigs in a pen in order to claim ingredients written on the pigs' collars. Once they have collected the ingredients, they have to use them to create tasty dishes. The winning team receive a day at the spa, while the losers must give the pigs a bath. The evening service has a barbecue theme, and many of the contestants struggle to cope with their duties. Who will be going home today?
