Crazy Matt Leaves the Hell's Kitchen Forever

It's been brewing since Season 4 of Hell's Kitchen started, and last night Matt finally went around the bend. Something is obviously wrong with this guy! This is without a doubt the worst group of chef wanna-be's ever on the show. I can't imagine Chef Gordon Ramsay entrusting a 5 Star restaurant with any of these cooks. It seems the talent has really gone down hill since Season 1, when Chef Ramsay rescinded his offer of a new restaurant to the winner and instead allowed him to work "at" on of his. Sad, since that was undoubtedly the most talented chef group Ramsay has had to choose from.
From this group of yaw-hoos, Matt was the worst (or seemingly the least sane). The Top 6 remaining "chefs" were: Bobby, Jen, Petrozza, Corey, Christina, and Matt. Now forming one team for the first time, the Black team, had to do twice the amount of work they have barely gotten done on two teams.
The Reward Challenge was to make and present to Chef Ramsay a signature dish given the single ingredient by Gordon. Matt actually got praise during this task, but almost cried (or maybe he did) when he did not win. Bobby's dish was a complete failure, yet he still believes he is head and shoulders above the rest of the chefs.
The winner was a pleading, begging, rubbing her hands with her face while she cried and prayed, Jen. To the horror of the rest of the group. The prize was a trip to Las Vegas, and Jen picked Corey to accompany her (because she had to pick someone). While in Vegas, the ladies had a meeting with Roc, last season's winner of Hell's Kitchen. Rock looked a little surprised, as neither of these women appear to be Executive Chef material.
The other players had punishment of unloading all freight for the restaurant for the night. Matt whined and cried the whole time, and Christina got sick of it first. She and Matt started picking at each other, which continued all afternoon.
At dinner service, Chef Gordon Ramsay assigned stations to each contestant. Pairing Christina and Matt at the meat section to ensure a volatile night in Hell's Kitchen. The fireworks started with the first entree order for meat, and continued all night. Bobby just laughed, which is all he ever does, apparently not knowing that part of being an Executive Chef is gaining control of the kitchen.
Matt and Christina served plate after plate of poorly cooked meat before Matt really lost it stating that he had a migraine he was working through so he could not remember ticket orders. Chef Ramsay told him to leave the kitchen, Matt refused. So Gordon Ramsay took him by the hand, literally, and lead him to the door. "Go lay down in the dorms", screamed Chef Ramsay. So Matt did, he thought that Chef Ramsay understood.
Corey had a horrible night on veggies, and wound up burning her hand. The burn was not severe enough to warrant leaving, but made her cry. This really frustrated Chef Ramsay, and he finally shut down the whole kitchen after getting into it with Jen.
What a disaster. I don't think half of the diners got served. Gordon Ramsay appointed no winner (ya think?) and told them to go to the dorms and come up with two people to face him for elimination.
The group chose: Matt and Christina, Corey volunteered herself.
Chef Ramsay agreed with the nominations and told Corey to step up with Christina and Matt. The questions were just a formality as it was a foregone conclusion that Matt would be the one leaving Hell's Kitchen tonight. At least that was apparent to all except Matt, who still thought that Chef Ramsay understood him. Nope!
Matt was eliminated, but I do think Gordon Ramsay thinks something is mentally wrong with this guy.
So the Top 5 on Hell's Kitchen are: Christina, Corey, Jen, Bobby and Petrozza.
I have to assume that it will come down to Bobby or Petrozza, but can you imagine either as an Executive Chef at a 5 star restaurant? Me neither! Good luck Gordon.
Here is how the night went down, enjoy!
