For the first time ever on HELL’S KITCHEN, the well-seasoned 40-somethings (blue team), will battle the fresh up-and-coming 20-somethings (red team) in a Battle of the Ages competition. The chefs are challenged to cook their signature dish where Chef Ramsay will rate each dish on a scale of 1 to 5. The team with the most amount of points will win the challenge.

Both teams are put to the test as each contestant is challenged to make their best chicken wings. Then, the teams take on their first dinner service of the season.

The most-decorated skater of all time, Tony Hawk, and 13-year-old Olympic medalist Sky Brown join Gordon to teach the contestants a lesson on hard work and success. Then, each team has 10 minutes to shell and cook a lobster after watching Gordon demonstrate it to perfection.

The contestants are introduced to the HK Water Park and are to launch themselves down a giant slip ‘n slide into a pool of ingredients. Then, each team is to create an amazing spin on four different types of sliders, containing unique ingredients found in the Water Park.

Both teams are tasked at serving a delicious breakfast for a group of first responders, firefighters and EMTs. The winning team earns a celebration in the Hollywood Hills, as the losing team is left at Hell’s Kitchen to sort the trash from the dumpster.

Chefs are put to the test when Gordon and special guest James Beard Award Winner Stephanie Izard challenge the chefs to make the perfect dish with obscure ingredients….only in a wok. Find out who is not in sync.
