Season 10[]

Episode 1[]

Main article: Episode 1001 - 18 Chefs Compete

The eighteen chefs arrived at Hell's Kitchen via SUVs and police escort, and as they walked in, Sous Chef Scott told the chefs he shaved his head to prove his commitment to Ramsay and showed a picture of him with a full head of hair, before deciding to shave the chefs' heads. After two chefs got their heads shaved, really Sous Chef Scott's friends, the latter was about to shave Danielle's head until Ramsay stopped him and told her to get back in line. He told the chefs to get in the kitchens to cook their signature dishes.

During the Signature Dish Challenge, Barbie was the sixth person from the red team to have her dish judged by Ramsay and went up against Chris. She made an unknown dish, it was criticized for having soggy potatoes, and neither she nor Chris scored that round. The red team eventually won the challenge 5-3, she commented that women ruled and boys drooled, and they were rewarded with a steak meal at the patio cooked by Season 3 winner Rock Harper and Season 6 winner Dave Levey.

Later that night, the red team spent more time goofing off than studying, Barbie jokingly commented that perfectly cooked scallops should feel like a men's cock, and when Danielle asked for which part of the penis she meant, she jokingly called Justin over. During prep, she was seen dropping a lamb chop by accident.

During dinner service, Barbie was on the appetizer station with Danielle and Kimmie. After Roshni served raw scallops, she accused the latter of not feeling a cock in a long time, and when Roshni's third attempt was raw again, she called it bullshit. After Roshni was kicked out, Ramsay reassigned her to fish, and her scallops were accepted, allowing the women to finally get out their first order of appetizers. After Christina's wellingtons had raw pastry, she helped her make new dough in the middle of service. When Christina served Wellingtons with raw pastry, a fed-up Ramsay shut down the red kitchen. Despite this, the red team won the service as they served all their appetizers compared to the blue team’s zero.[1]

The next day, a rap group woke up the chefs, but Barbie complained that it was too early to party. During the Scallop Challenge, she was seen not helping her teammates cut through the ice, leading Tiffany to comment that an extra set of hands would have been nice and was called her a bitch before being told to dig. She was paired up with Tiffany, and as she knew Ramsay expected perfection for that challenge, she was ready to give perfection as she put greens on their plate. They got their first attempt accepted, leading her to feel that she and Tiffany were hitting their stride. They later got their next two attempts accepted, the third one being the winning point, the red team won the challenge 6-2, and was happy to have won it for her team with three perfect attempts.

The red team was rewarded with a trip to Catalina Island with Ramsay on board a yacht and a zip lining experience. During the reward, Barbie annoyingly told Robyn that it was not the time to talk about her girlfriend after the latter missed her fiancé. Later, she and Dana found it funny when Roshni got stuck on her zip line ride.

During prep, Robyn asked Barbie for some tape, leading to a small argument as she tried to lend it to the former half-assed. Then, Robyn said that she was not acting as a team player was there for herself. During dinner service, she was on the fish station. When Ramsay asked her for the scallops, she did not respond until the second time. However, Tiffany expressed concern about missing scallop pieces, but she ignored her and placed eight pieces on the tray. So, Tiffany decided to send up the incomplete order to throw her under the bus, and when Ramsay and Sous Chef Andi saw the incomplete order, he asked her what was wrong with her, told the women what happened, and criticized their poor level of concentration. After Tiffany accused her of not knowing how to count, she got her two pieces accepted and the women served their first table. Later, she sent up two portions of overcooked scallops, Tiffany accused her of sinking them, and Ramsay asked her if she was back in Catalina Island as Robyn accused her of dooming everything she touched. On entrées, she was slow on the sea bass and yelled that she needed two minutes. However, Robyn accused her of not know how time worked, even going as far as to believe that her wristwatch did not work, and then, she spitefully walked the sea bass without telling Robyn, nearly erupting an argument until Christina and Danielle stopped them. When Robyn sent up her lamb, it was raw, with Ramsay even adding on that her sea bass was overcooked, and asked the two women if they were screwing up in sync. Later, she called out two minutes on her sea bass, but Robyn sarcastically asked if it was a real two minutes or a playful two minutes. However, when Ramsay saw the seventh plate of scallops she ruined, he kicked the women out of the kitchen and gave her the plate of scallops. When the women returned to the dorms, an argument between her and Robyn erupted as the latter blamed her for their defeat.

Both teams were named joint losers, and they were asked to nominate two each. During deliberation, the women all agreed to nominate Barbie as their first nominee as a pissed Tiffany wanted to see dinner service completed, and angrily told her to go the fuck home as the women did not want her around.

Barbie was the red team's first nominee for elimination, with Roshni as the second, and they joined Chris and Royce from the blue team. During her plea, she admitted to her mistakes and promised to never make them again, before calling out Robyn and Kimmie as the weakest chefs of the red team. When Ramsay asked her why Kimmie was the weakest, she claimed that the latter brought down the women’s morale, but Robyn argued that she was the one who brought down their morale. She survived elimination, to her teammates' anger, and while being dismissed, she refused to give up as she planned to be the last one standing.[2]

Episode 3[]

Main article: Episode 1003 - 16 Chefs Compete

Back at the dorms, Barbie declared war, and when Robyn accused her of sabotaging the entire red team that night, she felt that the latter was starting to crack. The next morning, at 5:47 AM, she vindictively did the dishes while stomping, irritating an awoke Robyn as the latter claimed she did not make that amount of noise when she walks. Eventually, a frustrated Robyn and Tiffany confronted her on her attitude, as Tiffany threatened to choke her out, and Robyn was that close to snapping her neck. However, she did not feel threatened by either Tiffany or Robyn’s threats.

During the Immigrants Lunch Service Challenge, Barbie was on the pizza station with Danielle and Kimmie. At one point, she decided to fire her pizzas despite not being close to serving entrées yet, and when Ramsay questioned why she would do that, she admitted that it was a mistake as a pissed Kimmie told her to communicate with her. Later, she was not garnishing them until Kimmie forced her to, and when she sent up the pizza, it was burnt, a pissed Ramsay forced the women to eat a piece, and he wanted to flee America than eat a burnt pizza. That led Briana to question her on either sabotaging the women or trying to help, and Ramsay kicked the latter off the pizza station. The red team got their orders finished first, helped the men out, and they were named the winners. They were rewarded with a trip to San Diego with a safari trip and got to fly in a private jet. During the reward, she apologized to her teammates for waking them up, but Robyn felt that it was an insincere apology and did not believe it.

During dinner service, Barbie was on the dessert station. At one point, she felt confident that her scallops were sexy, but they were raw, frustrating Ramsay. The red team lost the service, and they were asked to nominate two people for elimination. During deliberation, Danielle considered her for elimination for acting quiet that night, and Kimmie considered her as well as she accused the latter of fucking her that night. However, she felt that they all had a sucky night, knew she was a scapegoat yet again, and considered Dana for elimination, which Christina agreed.

Barbie was named the red team's second nominee for elimination, with Briana as the first, and they were joined by Roshni. During her plea, Ramsay called her the appendix of the women, but while she admitted to her mistakes, she owned to her mistakes and was trying to help her team. She survived elimination, and while being dismissed, she felt she was not going anywhere until Ramsay decided it.[3]

Episode 4[]

Main article: Episode 1004 - 15 Chefs Compete

The next day, a group of dogs was let loose in the dorms and their loud barking woke up the chefs, confusing Barbie. Once up, Sous Chef Scott gave them overalls to put on.

During the Creative Lamb Challenge, Barbie was seen grabbing spinach. She was paired up with Robyn on the rack of lamb, they were the third pair from the red team to have their dish judged by Ramsay, and they went up against the pair of Justin and Guy. She presented their rack of lamb with parsnip purée with braised leeks, but Ramsay had a hard time cutting a piece as a frustrated Robyn told her teammates that it was raw, before angrily telling her teammates that it should have been in the oven longer. Ramsay confirmed Robyn’s frustrated comments and said he was not going to eat it as he had four children to look after. They lost that round to Justin and Guy, the red team lost the challenge 2-3, and Ramsay called her and Robyn dish the most memorable for all the wrong reasons due to serving him raw lamb, and asked the two what the hell they were doing. The red team was punished by washing off the paint from the sheep, eating sheep testicles, and clean up both kitchens along with prepping them for that night’s service.

During dinner service, Barbie was at the dessert station. She was not seen that night, both teams were named joint losers, and they were asked to nominate two each. During deliberation, she considered Roshni for elimination.

Barbie was not nominated for elimination, and after Don's elimination, she said goodbye to Roshni as the latter was reassigned to the blue team.[4]

Episode 5[]

Main article: Episode 1005 - 14 Chefs Compete

Back at the dorms, Kimmie told Robyn, Barbie, and Tiffany that Dana and Danielle were strong together, before believing that Christina was following the duo as Robyn felt things were going to get dirty soon.

During the Mexican Cuisine Challenge, Barbie was not seen cooking a dish, and it was not chosen for judging. The red team won the challenge 3-2, and they were rewarded with a gourmet lunch at John Sedlar’s Rivera restaurant and received salsa lessons.

During the Mexican Night dinner service, Barbie was on the appetizer station with Christina. At one point, she sent up a pan of mussels with no flavor to them along with a perfect one, with Ramsay showing how off the color was before asking the women to help her out. Despite Christina offering to help, she was confident she had it despite a bumpy start. Eventually, she got her refire accepted, and her bounce back allowed the red team to push out appetizers. Later, she used a meat thermometer to check if the chicken was cooked properly, but Ramsay yelled that they never need a tool like that to cook meat, before kicking her out of the kitchen.

Both teams were named joint losers and they were asked to nominate two each. During deliberation, Kimmie accused Barbie of fucking the red team with the mussels early on, but when she reminded her that she was kicked out for only using a meat thermometer, that set Kimmie off as the latter felt she was the weakest link on the team, and claimed that she would have been beaten the fuck down if they were in the hood. However, she felt she did not deserve to be nominated, and accused Kimmie of failing on her station.

Barbie was named the red team's first nominee for elimination, with Danielle as the second, and they joined Patrick and Guy from the blue team. During her plea, she simply said she did not deserve to be nominated as she was not the weakest chef. Ramsay agreed with her, and sent her back in line, therefore surviving elimination.[5]

Episode 6/7[]

The next day, when the chefs went downstairs, Barbie hoped for any conflicts from the red team to be put aside so they could win the challenge as they have done it before. During the Fashion Night Planning Challenge, she was paired up with Tiffany on the poultry entrée, and during the cooking, the latter suggested to her that they grill their squab and fry their eggplant as it was Mediterranean. While she did not want to work with Tiffany, she decided to keep her mouth shut to not cause any more waves. They were the second pair from the red team to have their dish judged and went up against the pair of Patrick and Roshni. Tiffany presented their pan-roasted squab with both eggplant purée and fried eggplant, but once the former said the fried eggplant, the judges were not impressed as they were not looking for fried food. Afterwards, the dish was criticized for a messy presentation but praised for being delicious and having a nice pomegranate salad, even though it had some grease to it. When Ramsay asked who had the idea of fried eggplant, Tiffany admitted she made it, with him asking her if she wanted to eat one and put on a swimsuit afterwards as she knew they fucked up. They lost that round to the pair of Patrick and Roshni.

The red team lost the challenge 1-2, and they were punished by decorating the dining room ahead of the Fashion Night dinner service, hand-build a runway, and making centerpieces under the guidance of a fashion producer. During the punishment, Barbie accuses Robyn of not being a jack of all trades, but a master of none instead after the latter struggled to build the runway, before calling her a selfish bitch. Later, she got disgusted by Tiffany after the latter farted and burped. Back at the dorms, she believed that the red team would go further behind if Kimmie was still around and that her usefulness was running thin after Robyn ranted about the latter.[6]

During the Fashion Night dinner service, Barbie was on the garnish station. She tried to help Tiffany out on fish by giving her direction, but the latter was unappreciative even though she felt Tiffany had no finesse. Then, a small argument erupted between the two when she found Tiffany’s scallops sticking to the pan due to low heat, and the latter was fed up listening to her and said she sucked for being unable to work on a line. As Robyn told the two to stop bitching, she sent the scallops up to the pass, only for Kimmie to see they were lacking any color. That led to an irate Ramsay showing the women the poorly cooked scallops, ranted how they were still messing up on a dish they made a hundred times before, and she said that she told Tiffany. However, Tiffany claimed she had no idea who cooked them, frustrating her. Before the second course began, she struggled on the red team’s order as, while she knew it had swordfish and pigeon, she struggled on the numbers until Robyn spoke up, which were four beef and two pigeons. When Tiffany asked Christina to help watch over her swordfish, she commented that it was the former’s station, before concluding it was all strategy for Tiffany as she could let others do the work and see them fall. After Ramsay asked the women who oversaw fish, Tiffany still did not answer to her annoyance as, regardless that Christina helped, it was still the former's station. The red team won the service, but back at the dorms, she felt Robyn was starting shit even after they won when the latter took Christina aside.

At elimination, Barbie and the red team gave Clemenza a standing ovation after being impressed with his passionate plea, and for surviving elimination.[7]

Episode 8[]

Main article: Episode 1008 - 12 Chefs Compete

During the Dome Challenge, Barbie grabbed guinea hen, potatoes, and shrimp for her dish, hoping to make her shrimp work out. When Anita Lo was revealed as a guest judge, she got excited as the former was her female chef icon. She was the second person from the red team to have her dish judged and went up against Clemenza. She made a pan-roasted hen with a potato and shrimp hash, it was praised for being seasoned well, and she scored 5 stars. When Robyn halfheartedly apologized to the judges for her comments about her beets, she felt that the former's earlier comments have completely turned the judges off from her dish. The red team won the challenge 30-29, and they were rewarded with a spa day and brand new Demeyere cookware for each of them. During the reward, she annoyed Robyn after she asked if they would change the water out for each person.

During prep, Robyn asked Barbie about a missing Fraiche salad, but she did not respond properly, causing more tension between the two women. She was not seen much, but when she asked Tiffany where the sauce for the Wellingtons was, the latter rudely told her to leave her alone. The red team won the service by a mile after completing both their tickets and the blue team's tickets.[8]

During the Creative Steak Challenge, Barbie wanted to cook as Ramsay was opening a steakhouse. She went up against Brian, and their ingredients were New York striploin, celery root, tomatoes, cauliflower, and shrimp. She was the fourth person from the red team to have her dish judged and presented her grilled New York strip surf and turf with celery mash, roasted cauliflower, and heirloom tomato salad. It was praised for a delicious steak and perfectly cooked shrimp, and she tied that round with Brian. The red team eventually lost the challenge 2-3, and they were punished with taking in a delivery of a side of beef, and prep it for the following service. During the punishment, Robyn accused her of stealing her knife kit.

The next day, Christina and Barbie were surprised to see Robyn in their room, with her originally thinking it was a hobbit, before calling it creepy. During prep, Tiffany half-assed on prepping the onions, with her calling her out on her lack of standards, and told Sous Chef Andi about the former’s thick onion slices. After being called out, Tiffany accused her of being a kiss ass, and sarcastically wished the latter luck in winning while a bitchy Robyn agreed with Tiffany. While she had no idea why Tiffany hated her, she did not care and let the bickering get to her as she was here for a job.[9] Before service began, she was happy Kimmie returned after the latter suffered a serious burn.

During the Family-Steak Night dinner service, Barbie was at the dessert station. After Tiffany served a burnt pizza, she started to wonder why the former was a chef as she showed not to care. So, she decided to jump in and help on the pizzas, but Tiffany hated her look and said she could not stand the latter’s attitude. Eventually, she got her attempt accepted, but an annoyed Tiffany told her to get off her high horse as she sucked at cooking. When Tiffany continued to perform poorly, that time on the blinis, she felt the former showed no respect for the food, before adding on that the only thing she saw Tiffany passionate about was a cigarette. So, she decided to jump in again, but like last time, Tiffany did not appreciate the help and had it with the former. Despite that, her attempt was accepted, but while she took Ramsay’s compliment, Tiffany snapped. Later, she and Tiffany started arguing over garnishes, leading Ramsay to call it a sad situation before calling the three men over to the red kitchen to help. However, the red team was eventually kicked out after multiple mistakes. Both teams were named joint losers, and they were asked to nominate two each. During deliberation, she and Christina had to restrain both Kimmie and Robyn out of fear from hitting each other.

Barbie was not nominated for elimination, but when Tiffany argued it was the cattiness that sucked, she felt that the latter did not care about anything. However, that led to Tiffany telling her off and that she sucked on a station by herself. After Patrick's elimination, she said goodbye to Robyn as the latter was reassigned to the blue team.[10]

Episode 11[]

During the Craps Challenge, Barbie rolled an L and picked lamb. During the cooking, she wanted to input ideas for all their ingredients, but Dana reminded her to cook the lamb as it had to sear immediately even though she was confident on the lamb. With two minutes left, she told Dana not to put the crispy leaves on the plate as Ramsay might hate them, but the latter got upset as they were her favorite. Dana presented the red team's herb-crusted rack of lamb on top of crispy roasted Brussel sprouts and braised endives and chicory. Ramsay praised the cook of the lamb for being perfect, with her feeling more confident and told Dana that she told her so but criticized the Brussel sprouts for being a disappointment as they were too crunchy. That led her to call Dana a dumbass for worrying more about the lamb than her Brussel sprouts. The red team lost the challenge, and they were punished by slow roasting pork for a pulled pork special ahead of the following service, which would take 12–15 hours.

During dinner service, Barbie was on the meat station. After Tiffany sent up a cod instead of a sea bass, she was frustrated as her five pieces of meat were meat and asked the former how she could not tell the difference between the two fish. When Barbie’s pork chop got to David Beckham’s table, he enjoyed it, exciting her. After her perfect run on meat caused the red team to be nearly finished their orders, she was one of the four red chefs that came into the blue kitchen to help. The red team won the service.[11]

During the Wing Eating Challenge, Barbie was one of the four chefs to compete against Joey Chestnut for $500, but Chestnut won as the chefs only had seven wings left. When Ramsay announced the Blind Taste Test, she was not happy as her lips and tongue were burning at the same time. During the first round, she was bewildered when Christina mistook turkey for tofu. She was the second person from the red team to compete and went up against Robyn. She could only get cilantro correct.

The red team lost the challenge 6-7, and they were punished by participating in Delivery Day, as well as unboxing all their peppercorns, grind them by hand and mortar, replace the fryer oil for both kitchens, and prep potatoes. During the punishment, Kimmie asked Barbie for some help, but she decided to place the ice bags at the edge of the truck instead of on the ground like they wanted, which angered Kimmie and proceed to tell her off. However, she refused to let a 6.1 and 300 pound Kimmie talk her down as the two had a fierce argument, where she told Kimmie that she never jogged a day in her life and that her ass shows it, which led to an angry Christina yelling at them to knock it off as they had no time.

Later that day, a truck horn blared, annoying Tiffany as she thought the red team was done with delivery day. However, Barbie opened the box to reveal a tablet, and after pressing play, it opened a prerecorded message from Ramsay. Then, Ramsay announced that he was giving both teams a chance to have their own menus for the following night’s service, and gave them one hour to create a menu with three appetizers, three entrées, and three desserts. During prep, Kimmie had no idea what she was doing and asked her teammates questions, leading her to call the former the weakest link on the red team because of that. Then, she was very slowly cleaning the mussels, with Tiffany sarcastically thanking her for the help for two and a half hours, and accusing her of doing it on purpose. With Sous Chef Andi pushing the red team to get plates ready, everybody was getting pissed at her, with even Christina losing her patience, and Kimmie threatened to hit her. However, she knew that her teammates did not care for her as a chef, and she cared more about Ramsay’s comments, before leaving for a smoke break and angering Christina as they were very behind before taking over the mussel cleaning.[12] Before service began, she hoped for the red team to kill it as they set themselves for success.

During dinner service, Barbie was on the appetizer station with Christina. When Christina was overwhelmed on flatbreads, she helped the former, and they were accepted, even though she felt Christina was floundering despite talking a big game. While she offered to help Kimmie out, the latter refused, so she decided to step back. When Kimmie's duck came out overcooked, she said that she offered to help. After Ramsay caught Tiffany trying to cook garnishes on a dirty pan, she called the former gross for using a dirty pan when there were two million pans in the restaurant. Both teams were named joint losers, and they were asked to nominate two each. During deliberation, Dana considered her for elimination, surprising her, and Kimmie nominated her as well. While she argued she was not bad-mouthing people, Dana felt it was on her looks towards them, angering her as it meant the red team was nominating her on her facial structure. After she nominated Tiffany and Kimmie, Tiffany nominated her.

Barbie was named the red team's second nominee for elimination, with Tiffany as the first despite Ramsay questioning the decision to nominate her over Kimmie, and they joined Robyn and Clemenza from the blue team. During her plea, she said she was a team player, but when Ramsay told her that the red team wanted her out 100%, she argued they wanted her gone since the beginning and that the only person she cared for was him. She survived elimination, and while being dismissed, she refused to give up as the red team could not stop her.[13]

Episode 14[]

While going back to the dorms, Barbie knew Tiffany deserved to go home that night, and one by one, her competitors were dropping like flies.

During the Southern Cuisine Challenge, Barbie wanted to go up against Clemenza as he has been a strong competitor in the challenges, and their dishes were catfish and collard greens. She was the first person from the red team to have her dish judged and presented her blackened catfish with bacon braised collard greens. It was praised for looking attractive along with a beautifully fried catfish, she scored that round over Clemenza, and was happy to beat him. The red team won the challenge 3-1, and they were rewarded with a photoshoot with Ramsay and Tanya Steel for Epicurious, and lunch at the Four Seasons, exciting her as she was hungry. During the reward, she accused Dana of being full of herself after the latter bragged about her sweet potato purée and was tired of it, making the entire atmosphere awkward.

During the Southern Night dinner service, Barbie was on the garnish station. After Kimmie served burnt catfish, she was dismayed as not only was it an easy fish to cook, but the latter was from the South and should be able to cook catfish. While the red team seemed to be coming together she felt they were way behind on orders thanks to Kimmie, only to send up bland kale that tasted disgusting, and Kimmie accused her of fucking up again like she had the previous eight services and told her to go home. Eventually, the red team got kicked out of the kitchen due to multiple mistakes. Both teams were named joint losers, and they were asked to nominate one each. During deliberation, Kimmie accused her of being inconsistent and slacking off, before nominating her for bringing the entire mood down. However, she knew that was not right as it was the catfish that brought them down and said she was not leaving.

Barbie was not nominated for elimination, and while being dismissed, she said she was not afraid as she had to watch her back this entire competition, before declaring that she was not stopping.[14]

Episode 15[]

Main article: Episode 1015 - 7 Chefs Compete

Back at the dorms, Barbie noted that the red team was down three compared to the blue team’s four, but Christina felt that fewer people in the kitchen were better and did not give a fuck as she believed in her team.

During the Relay Challenge, Barbie went up twice. She was not seen during the third round, but on the fourth round, she felt Dana was running around frantically with nothing accomplished and was getting frustrated. On the fifth round, she felt the cod was not ready after Christina pulled it out. On the final round, she had a lot of stuff she still needed to work on, before calling it a hot mess. When Ramsay found the red team's cod to be raw, she blamed Christina for fucking it up. On the rack of lamb round, she revealed that she improperly sliced the red team’s lamb that Ramsay said looked chewed up, leaving an agitated Dana to accuse her of cutting it with a spoon. Since neither team scored a point on either dish, Ramsay named both teams joint losers on a team challenge. Everybody was punished by cleaning up the front of the restaurant and detailing the SUVs.

During dinner service, Barbie was on the meat station. At one point, she tried to offer Christina some help, but the latter rejected her as she wanted to get through her rhythm, with her getting annoyed. Then, Christina sent up a burnt risotto as her pans were hot, Ramsay accused her of going out of control, and she felt that if Christina was too proud to ask for help, then she would not make it far in the competition. Later, Ramsay praised her for her perfect Wellingtons, and after the red team completed service, Ramsay called her over to take over meat from Brian. With her help, the blue team was finally able to send out their entrées, and she was proud that Ramsay called her over to help the blue team. The red team won the service, and Ramsay awarded them with the first three black jackets.

After elimination, Barbie was ready to knock out five more of her competitors.[15]

Episode 16[]

Main article: Episode 1016 - 6 Chefs Compete

When Ramsay announced the Taste It Now Make It Challenge, Barbie got nervous as she knew that challenge would come. She was paired up with Justin, and they used veal, serrano ham, white bean, bacon, and port to recreate Ramsay's dish. During the cooking, she picked serrano ham based on the texture, picked white bean because every other pair used it, and pushed Justin to use port wine instead of dark chicken broth due to a tart taste. They were the second pair to have their dish judged, but when Ramsay announced the wrapping as prosciutto, she was confused as she thought serrano ham was the prosciutto of Spain. They got all but the wrapping and the sauce correct and lost the challenge to the pair of Dana and Clemenza. She was punished by doing the waiting staff’s chores which included redoing the tabletops, ironing and folding the linen, and polishing the silverware which were all done under James’ supervision. During the punishment, she complained that she hated cleaning and did not want to do the ironing.

Before dinner service, Ramsay announced that a team of former runner ups would be competing against the black jackets. During dinner service, Barbie was on the meat station. At one point, she forcibly told Robyn not to touch anything, and her leadership allowed the black jackets to get their first order of entrées out. When Ramsay praised her for her perfect meat, she claimed she would not let the runner ups intimidate her. When Dana got confused about timings, she asked her if she was stupid as fish cooked faster. The black jackets lost the service to the runner ups, and they were asked to nominate two people for elimination. During deliberation, she felt that Dana should not be blaming others as it was her second night on fish, and deemed it an error of judgment, before nominating Robyn for not finishing what she started.

She was not nominated for elimination.[16]

Episode 17[]

Main article: Episode 1017 - 5 Chefs Compete

During the Cooking School Challenge, Barbie immediately pushed her patience button after learning that they would be teaching Ms. Teen USA winners and was paired up with Ms. Teen USA Hilary Cruz of 2007. During the cooking, Cruz did not know how to mince an onion, even asking if there was a machine to use, and while most of the pairs were cooking the marinara sauce and getting the chicken cooked, they were struggling to dice the onion, which Dana took notice of. With only ten minutes left, she was getting anxious as it was Ramsay’s dish they were cooking but was not ready to give up. Near the end of the cooking, Cruz was starting to panic, but thanks to her, everybody got their dishes cooked and plated on time. They were the fourth pair to have their dish judged, it was praised for a near-perfect marinara sauce, but while she was left confident in her chances, Clemenza was the final person up, and he was Italian. Their dish was called up along with Dana and Allie Laforce for another look, and in the end, Ramsay named Cruz’s dish the best, therefore she won the challenge, and she was extremely proud of Cruz for doing well as the latter wanted to put winning a Hell’s Kitchen challenge on her resume. After the challenge, Ramsay praised her for starting to shine more, but when she claimed that patience was a virtue, Dana bitterly asked her if being mediocre throughout the competition was her strategy.

Barbie was rewarded with an Italian inspired day which included lunch at Ado Ristorante and kayaking along the Venice canal, and when Ramsay allowed her to pick one person to join, she picked Justin. During the reward, Antonio Mure presented the two with the restaurant’s signature pasta dish, with the two thoroughly enjoying it. During the kayaking trip, they looked at the houses on the canal. When they came back from their reward, they irked the chefs with their description of their reward. Then, the two announced they would make dinner for everybody as Justin felt bad for them, and ended up making spaghetti. However, none of the chefs were thrilled about what they made pasta for the last six hours, and Justin got insulted as he hoped they would have at least enjoyed it.

During the Italian Night dinner service, Barbie was on the appetizer station with Clemenza. At one point, she produced a delicious risotto with her making it her goal to make orders perfect. After Ramsay accused him of not being interested, she got frustrated as Ramsay ordered Clemenza to call out the order himself. Then, she sent up a risotto that had raw wine, no salt, and hard as a rock, with Justin calling it inexcusable as she cooked risottos in her life. After Ramsay accused her of switching off and Clemenza of being in the shit, a frustrated Dana yelled that they should get a risotto right by their fourteenth service. When she sent up the refire, Ramsay ordered the chefs to taste it again because that time, it had no salt and was raw, which Dana deemed disgusting as it looked like rice soup. Deciding to help, Clemenza jumped in to help her on the risotto, but the two argued over when to send it up as she wanted it gone, but he felt it was too watery. Afterwards, Clemenza decided to let her sink herself and sent up the liquid risotto that had an overly cheese taste, and after Ramsay called it an insult to Italy, he asked her if she wanted to go home before warning her that she would be sent home if she made one more mistake. She refused to go home, but Christina had no idea what she was doing, even hearing the bombs go off. After, she finally got the fourth attempt accepted, and a stream of appetizers left the kitchen. After seeing Dana's burnt filets, she called them black as night. On the final order of appetizers, she and Clemenza confident they could do it, but Ramsay wagered a hundred dollars that they would not get it correct. As predicted, she was slow on cooking her final risotto, and Justin called it the most difficult thing he ever saw as there was a table waiting for food for a long time. After she sent up her dishes, Ramsay discovered that she made capellini for two instead of one with little crab, accused her of not knowing what she was doing anymore, and begged her to go home as he could not understand what the fuck was going on. She promised to get the refire done in three minutes, but when Ramsay asked her to say something motivational, she let out a flat sorry, frustrating Dana as they had to wait for appetizer to finish.

After service, Ramsay asked the final five to name one person for elimination. During deliberation, Justin asked Barbie what happened, but while the latter admitted to having a poor night, she felt Clemenza was in her way that night. Once everybody regrouped, she voted for Clemenza, while the latter voted for her. Then, the two argued about their poor risottos and Clemenza not being listened to.

Barbie was named one of the two choices for nomination with Clemenza as the final five failed to come to a consensus, so Ramsay decided to call both down. During her plea, she felt that she did not lose her passion, but Ramsay reminded her that she did not callback, showed no leadership, had no inspiration, and was in the weeds all night. While she argued that she did not give up, Ramsay felt otherwise. After listening to their pleas, Ramsay asked about the lack of synergy between the two, but while she said that she could not trust Clemenza due to his disorganization, he reminded her about the risotto incident as the two continued to plead their cases. She survived elimination, and back at the dorms, the final four were visited by mysterious people, much to her shock and excitement, ending the episode in a cliffhanger.[17]

Episode 18[]

Main article: Episode 1018 - 4 Chefs Compete

Continuing from the previous episode, Barbie received a visit from her partner and children. As she reunited with them, she knew her family was proud of her no matter what. The next day, Sous Chef Scott called the dorms and asked her to bring everybody outside as the cars were waiting for them.

During the Budget Challenge, Barbie decided to buy a cheaper pork chop at $5.99 a pound and bought sausage to add value to her dish. During the cooking, she reminded both Christina and Dana that it was a challenge after seeing the two help each other, and they were not in teams, before focusing on her own dish. She was the second person to have her dish judged, and as she walked her dish up, she was nervous as pork chops were less expensive over shrimp, but confidently felt it was at least $32. She made pork and sauerkraut with sausage, but while it was praised for being a perfect pork and generous portions, it was criticized for a salty sausage and the unnecessary sausage component, giving her a $33 average. While Justin was hurt and irked that he lost to a pork chop, she was happy about her performance.

Barbie lost the challenge to Dana and was punished by separating all the trash the restaurant accumulated for recycling purposes. During the punishment, she was used to the smell as she did compost every Friday and told Justin to get over it. When Dana walked past them for her reward, she was happy the former was leaving as she would have done nothing but whine, bitch, and moan, and make her throw her in the dumpster. Later, Justin nearly puked over the sight of maggots in the trash, but she told him to do it in the organics bin.

During dinner service, Barbie was on the meat station. She was the third person to run the pass, but after Ramsay told her to run her way, she read out the order from the pass with her back towards everybody. Dana got confused as they had no idea what she asked, but she corrected herself after Ramsay told her not to shout towards the dining room. Then, she rejected Justin’s risotto for having too much white wine, but he did not talk to Dana about the refire until after he sent it up until she ordered the two to work together as she called it a train wreck. After, the kitchen was back on track, only for Sous Chef Scott to send up celeriac mashed instead of the ordered mashed potatoes, although she caught that mistake. After her turn ended, she felt that he did well running the brigade and that she showed Ramsay a true leader. After service, Ramsay asked the final four to think about who should stay, and who should go home. During deliberation, she said that with four chefs left, they had to be at their best and hold their stations down, before feeling that Dana did not do that in both the line and the pass. While Dana felt nobody performed that bad, she felt the former was not owning up to her mistakes, and reminded Dana about dragging on the tickets. When she asked Dana if she ever ran a pass before, the latter said she did not, but called her delusional if the latter thought she would win.

At elimination, Ramsay asked the final four why they should stay. Barbie felt she had not given up and has grown since the beginning while keeping her motivation and passion. She was eliminated, but before leaving, Ramsay praised her for improving the most and calling her a gifted girl. During her exit interview, Barbie received a retrospective montage. Ramsay gave no comment on her elimination, and she did not receive the coat hanging and portrait burning sequence.[18]

Main article: Episode 1020 - Winner Chosen

Barbie was one of the eight people that returned for the final dinner service. She was Justin's first pick and was followed by Brian, Royce, and Clemenza. She was not surprised being first as she had been the best chef on meat that season.[19]

The next day during prep, Barbie was horrified when Clemenza burnt the crostini. During dinner service, she was on the meat station. At one point, Justin rejected her overcooked ribeye. Two hours into service, she got her refire accepted, and blue diners were receiving their orders. However, on their final ticket, she sent up overcooked ribeye again, a frustrated Justin said she was better than that, and she was confused as to why her meat was overcooking on her. Then, she yet again sent up poor ribeyes and announced she did not have enough portions for the two on order, much to Brian’s shock, and Royce told her to tell Justin. When she did, Justin was dismayed by that. As Justin told James to offer the table filets as replacements, she knew how much on the line was for Justin and that she wanted to see him win before saying that she hated ribeyes. Justin eventually lost the finals to Christina.[20]

Main article: Episode 1701 - All-Stars Arrive
Main article: Episode 1702 - Raising the Bar

Barbie was the eighth All-Star to arrive at Hell's Kitchen and mentioned how exciting it was being back, even though she was nervous as she was not a huge favorite with the red team last time. When she came into the VIP Lounge, everyone except Robyn greeted her. Despite that, the two exchanged a forced hug. When Dana arrived, she was not happy to see the latter. Later, she recalled that Elise was in the same season as Jennifer, which made everybody cringe.

During the Signature Dish Challenge, Barbie received chicken as her main protein, she was the second person from the red team to have her dish judged and went up against Ben. Before judging her dish, she told Ramsay that her favorite moment was when he praised her skills during her elimination but admitted that her worst moment was getting nominated constantly, which made Dana and Robyn laugh as they were responsible for that. When Ramsay asked why they wanted her gone, she believed that it was because she could cook. She made a curry chicken with coconut milk and Marsala, it was criticized for having a heavy sauce, and she scored 3 points. The red team lost the challenge 26-27, and they were punished by cleaning up the front of the entrance, tear down the risers and red carpets, and clean up the confetti on the ground. Back at the dorms, she got weirded out when Robyn claimed that her tiger’s eye could talk to her.[21]

During the Bar Menu Challenge, Barbie made an unknown dish and lost the challenge as her dish was not called up as the top four of the red team.

During dinner service, Barbie was on the fish station with Manda. When Giovanni was called in to help on meat, she reminded a tearful Elise that he was only there to help out, and urged her to keep control of her station. After Manda served a raw salmon, she was annoyed as salmon was the most ordered fish in the world. The red team lost the service and were asked to nominate two people for elimination. During deliberation, she tried to calm Elise down and told her that she should not go home as she had more to show. Then, she said that there were some communication problems at the start, and reminded Robyn that she had two proteins to cook compared to the four Elise cooked.

Barbie was not nominated for elimination, and when asked by Ramsay on who should go home, she said Manda.[22]

Episode 3[]

Main article: Episode 1703 - Tower of Terror

During the Seafood Tower Challenge, Barbie was paired up with Robyn, and they were the final pair from the red team to compete. Despite getting their tier completed, they were unable to present it as the blue team got to Ramsay first. The red team lost the challenge, and they were punished by taking deliveries of 100 pounds of seafood, prep them for that night’s service along with both kitchens, and eat disgusting fish soup. During the punishment, she started calling out what was needed on the invoice, but that annoyed Manda, and it led to a minor argument until Elise shut it down. During lunch, she vomited after her teammates described the texture of the dish out loud.

During prep, Robyn discovered that Barbie sliced the scallops into uneven pieces, and while the latter told her that it would fuck the red team, she ignored her. During dinner service, she was on the meat station with Ashley. At one point, she communicated with Manda on times and got her lamb accepted. When Ashley came back after leaving temporarily, she told the former to be with her, but while she was ready on her proteins, Manda was not ready with her garnishes, much to her dismay as she was forced to watch her meat die. Later, Robyn tried to communicate with her on times, but she rudely told her to shut up as she was talking to Ramsay, and despite Robyn telling her to be accurate on her timings, she told the latter to be accurate on her fish. Then, she sent up an overcooked duck, chewed up lamb, and raw Wellingtons. After the red team got kicked out of the kitchen, she and Robyn argued over her knocking the latter down that night.

The red team lost the service and were asked to nominate two people for elimination. During deliberation, Barbie considered Robyn and Manda for elimination, but the latter felt that her poor performance on meat hurt them that night. Then, Jennifer and Robyn considered her for elimination, and the latter brought up the argument she had with her over her disrespectful attitude towards her. However, she argued that there was no reason she should be nominated as Robyn could not handle her station, and sarcastically apologized to the latter for being unable to cook fish.

Barbie was named the red team's second nominee for elimination, with Robyn as the first, and they were joined by Ashley and Manda. During her plea, she said that she was focused and determined, but when Ramsay asked her what the red team had against her, she felt that there were a lot of mouths running, and not a lot of ears listening. She survived elimination, and while being dismissed, she knew that there was a target on her back once again, but declared that she was going to survive it like she did last time.[23]

Episode 4[]

Main article: Episode 1704 - Just Letter Cook

Back at the dorm, Van met up with Barbie and Elise and charmingly asked how his Nubian princesses were doing, which made her giggle. After being called sexy, she called Van the fun that everybody wanted to be around, and called him a hot-blooded person based on his red tint as the two continued to flirt off each other.

Before the Chance Challenge, Barbie got dismayed by the challenge as she did not like leaving things to chance. During the cooking, she expressed concern as she was allergic to peanut butter, knew that she could not taste her sauce as it contained the peanut butter, along with the situation of pairing it with her halibut, and told Sous Chef Christina that she would find somebody to help her out. Near the end of the cooking time, she had Elise taste her sauce, and the latter said that it tasted good. She was the first person from the red team to have her dish judged by Ramsay and presented her pan-seared halibut with an African peanut sauce. Before tasting her dish, she told Ramsay about her allergy and how Elise tasted the sauce for her. Ramsay praised the fish for being nailed, the peanut butter aspect being incorporated well, and she scored 4 points. After, she admitted that had she been able to taste her dish, she would have scored a perfect 5, but she was still proud of her performance.

The red team won the challenge 26-25, and they were rewarded with a private jet trip to Santa Barbara and had an overnight stay at the Belmond El Encanto resort. During the reward, she was stunned that they were staying at John F. Kennedy’s favorite suite, and called it a once in a lifetime experience.

During dinner service, Barbie was on the garnish station. At one point, she got flustered, sent up ice-cold mashed potatoes, and accidentally grabbed Ramsay’s cloth, which he called her a doughnut in response. Fortunately, she was able to reheat the mashed potatoes properly, and the red team eventually won the service.

During elimination, Barbie said goodbye to Robyn as the latter was reassigned to the blue team, and welcomed Josh as a new teammate, much to her and the red team's dismay.[24]

Episode 5[]

Main article: Episode 1705 - Josh Josh Josh

Before the Wood Plank Cooking Challenge, Barbie said that she wanted to cook with the cow before the actual challenge was announced. During the cooking, she accused Josh of tanking them after he dumped cold coals on top of their hot ones and annoyingly reminded him that white coals were needed to cook food over an open fire. Despite that, she was able to get the fire going again after moving the coals around. She was paired up with Manda on the wahoo, they were the second pair from the red team to have their dish judged, and went up against the pair of Benjamin and Jared. They made a cedar smoked wahoo with leek ash, it was praised for a perfectly cooked fish and the idea of using the leek ash, and they tied that round with the pair of Benjamin and Jared. The red team lost the challenge after a tie at 3, and they were punished by cleaning up a stable at Apex Ranch, much to her dismay.

During dinner service, Barbie served a smoked salmon rillette special tableside. She was not seen that night, and both teams were named joint winners.[25]

Episode 6[]

Main article: Episode 1706 - A Little Slice of Hell

Before the Pizza Fusion Challenge, Barbie admitted that despite coming from Philadelphia where they had authentic Italian pizza, she never worked with a pizza oven. She went up against Robyn, and their country was India. During the cooking, she tried to keep Elise calm after the latter had a meltdown. She was the first person to have her dish judged and presented her white pizza with mango chutney and roasted mushrooms. While it was criticized for looking dry, the pizza was praised for tasting Indian, she won that round over Robyn, and she smugly thanked the latter for the win. The red team won the challenge 3-2, and they were rewarded with a tour around Hollywood in a double-decker bus, and a trip to the Hollywood Magic Castle.

During the Italian Night dinner service, Barbie was on the appetizer station with Manda. She was not seen much, except for refusing to let Elise bully her way into her station, and the red team won the service.[26]

Episode 7[]

Main article: Episode 1707 - Trimming Fat

During the Last Chef Standing Challenge, Barbie was the first chef from the red team to leave the kitchen, albeit with reluctance. The red team lost the challenge 3-5, and they were punished by helping Marino clean the dining room, clean the latter’s shirts ahead of the following service, and clean both kitchens. During the punishment, her pickiness over the shoes irritated Elise and Jennifer, and Dana called her a know it all at shoe shining.

Barbie was Michelle's first nominee for the Cook For Your Life Challenge, and even though she commented that she was always the first nominee, she would be the last one standing. She was followed by Manda and Elise, and they were joined by Robyn, Giovanni, and Milly. During the cooking, she revealed that she used to be a Sous Chef at a seafood restaurant, and how they used to shuck oysters every night, before claiming that she wanted to prove to Ramsay she deserved to stay. She was the third person to have her dish judged, and was very confident that she was not going home. However, Ramsay noted that she put too much pasta on her oysters, and having crunchy cucumbers. While she lost to Manda, she was able to beat Robyn and became the third chef sent upstairs to safety. There, she felt that Michelle would freak out if Elise would be safe.[27]

Episode 8[]

Main article: Episode 1708 - Welcome to the Jungle

During the Cave Meat Challenge, Barbie was paired up with Michelle on the elk, they were the final pair from the red team to have their dishes judged, and they went up against the pair of Benjamin and Robyn. She made a pan-roasted elk with chili braised bok choy, and while it was praised for being tender, she lost that round to the blue team. The red team lost the challenge 1-2, and they were punished by participating in Spring Cleaning day, which included clearing the bathrooms and bedrooms of the dorms, and ironing the wait staff’s aprons. During the punishment, she suggested to Michelle that she should apologize to Elise before service began but secretly told Dana that it was not going to end well.

During dinner service, Barbie was on the meat station with Michelle. At one point, her duck was raw and bloody, and a frustrated Ramsay took the red team into the pantry room along with Sous Chef Christina. There, Ramsay angrily asked the red team what has happened to them, called them out on their meltdown, and told them to start being honest with each other. After, she sent up a chicken that Michelle checked on earlier, but it was still raw. Later, she wanted to walk with her duck, but Manda said that she needed to let the pork rest, and then, she sent up another raw duck, which became one of the two dishes that got the red team kicked out of the kitchen. While the red team was going back to the dorms, they were arguing on the way, with her comparing themselves to an angry pimple about to explode.

The red team lost the service, and they were asked to nominate two people for elimination. During deliberation, Manda called out Barbie on micromanaging her from the start, but she asked Manda why she did not say anything. Then, she argued that she did not deserve to be nominated as she was working meat the entire night alone, before accusing Michelle of bouncing through service.

Barbie was named the red team's second nominee for elimination, with Manda as the first. Earlier, Elise threw her under the bus by saying that she always blamed other people for her mistakes, and saying the duck was raw because no one scored it for her, much to her shock. During her plea, she said that she was not done yet and that she looked out for everybody but herself. She also declared that communication is still failing, and when Elise said that only one person was running the station, the former said that that was what they heard during service, but the rest of the red team disagreed. She survived elimination, and when being dismissed, she commented that despite being nominated again, she survived for another day.[28]

Episode 9[]

Main article: Episode 1709 - Catch of the Day

During the Fishing Challenge, Barbie received Dover sole has her fish and was briefly seen collecting her ingredients, ending with six ingredients. When Elise tried to argue that she was at a disadvantage for only getting three ingredients, she got tired of the former’s constant excuses. She was the final person from the red team to have her dish judged, went up against Van, and presented her Dover sole with creamed leeks. While it was praised for being cooked very well, she lost that round to Van.

The red team lost the challenge 2-4, and they were punished by participating in fish delivery, prep them for the following service, and eat a disgusting milkshake. During the punishment, Barbie passively mocked Dana’s method of deboning her salmon, and during lunch, she decided to dump her milkshake into the trash can. However, Sous Chef Jocky gave her another one and informed the red team that they all had to finish their protein shakes thanks to her actions, angering her teammates.

During dinner service, Barbie was on the meat station with Michelle. At the start of service, she welcomed Cheryl Burke at her table, as she was a big Dancing with the Stars fan, but that annoyed Elise. After receiving their first order, Ramsay told her to lead the red kitchen, but when Elise decided to take the leadership role, that annoyed her, who believed that the red team was team petty. Later, she and Elise had a brief shouting match over cooking times, and an annoyed Sous Chef Christina ordered the two to shut up as there were guests in the kitchen. When the entrées were sent up, a pissed Ramsay brought the entire red team into the pantry room, showed them her ice-cold New York striploin, he lectured her not to send up entrées that were not ready. When she checked on Burke's table, one of her guests commented that his duck was too pink for him, and she offered to cook another one despite his refusal. Despite that, she still wanted to cook another duck despite the man’s refusal, and as she and Elise continued to argue, an annoyed Ramsay brought them to the pantry room to get the full story and ordered them to work out their differences in there. However, the two continued to bicker about the duck.

Both teams were named joint-losers, and they were asked to nominate two each. During deliberation, Barbie accused Elise of running her mouth by reading the ticket orders, but the latter argued that she should go home because she has continued to struggle with meat and was called both a lunatic and batshit crazy, and the two went back to arguing.

Barbie was named the red team's second nominee for elimination, with Elise as the first. During her plea, she admitted to her mistakes and claimed that she was trying to get along with her teammates. She survived elimination, and when being dismissed, she refused to lose again.[29]

Episode 10[]

Main article: Episode 1710 - It's All Gravy

Back at the dorms, Barbie overheard the red team commenting about her outburst during deliberation, but she said that she was going to keep her eyes on the prize.

During the Blind Taste Test, Barbie was the third person from the red team to compete and went up against Benjamin. She could only get mustard and parmesan, leading Jennifer to get shot at by the potato cannon. During Elise's turn, she got both the cannon and gravy punishment. The red team lost the challenge 2-8, and they were punished by cleaning up the dining room, separating peppercorn by color, and grinding them by hand. While being dismissed, Ramsay reminded her that she was the best out of the team during that challenge, and she commented that her teammates needed to get their shit together if they were going to win challenges, before touching her gravy covered pants with her hands, much to her disgust. During the punishment, Michelle commented that she should have gone home instead of Van, but she retorted that it was good Ramsay did not think so, before proclaiming that she was going to focus only on herself from now on. When Dana refused to make a promise for a good dinner service, she accused the former of not believing in herself, but Dana retorted that the person she did not believe in was her.

Before the Charity Night dinner service, Barbie knew that the charity night was important as she lost her father to lung cancer. She oversaw the beef filet Rossini course, was the fourth person from the red team to lead, and wanted to be firm with her team for her course. But, when she asked Michelle to get the onions ready, the latter remembered that she promised Dana to help her on prepping the desserts, though she sternly reminded Michelle that she promised earlier. Later, she was beginning to plate, but Ramsay discovered that the potatoes tasted burnt, and asked the red team if it was how they honored a charity. Later, she was pushing Michelle for the garnish, but when the latter told the former to watch the beef, she aggressively screamed at Michelle for the spinach, much to Ramsay’s dismay who commented that it was no way to run a course. Eventually, Michelle got the garnishes, but she continued to argue with her teammates over plating, dismaying Ramsay even more. Despite that, the red team’s course was eventually sent out.

The red team was named the losers, and they were asked to nominate two people for elimination. During deliberation, Barbie brought up how her dish had 15 items to put together, but even though Dana reminded her how the potatoes were burnt, she argued that it was the distractions that were the main problem. She was considered for elimination by Michelle and Elise for elimination, but she in turn considered the two for elimination, reminding Michelle how she refused to help on garnish, even though the latter argued against that.

Barbie was named the red team's first nominee for elimination, with Elise as the second. During her plea, Ramsay asked her if the red team have given up on her, but she once again brought up the garnish incident with Michelle, even though the latter argued that she did, and said that the snappy comments were what sunk the red team. She was eliminated for her aggressive leadership on her course, along with not bouncing back quicker, but before leaving, Ramsay praised her for her heart. During her exit interview, she angrily argued that she was neither the worst chef on the red team or in Hell’s Kitchen, and yelled that it was what it was.

Ramsay's comment: "Barbie's performance at charity night was a disaster. So, I performed a charity act for her team by sending her home." [30]

Barbie was one of the seven chefs that returned for the final dinner service.[31] She was Benjamin's fourth and final pick, after Jennifer, Van, and Robyn, and the final pick overall. During prep, Benjamin gave her clear directions on prepping her station.

During dinner service, Barbie was on the appetizer station. At one point, Ramsay told her to speed up as Robyn decided to help, and she admitted that she did not have a lot of experience on the appetizer station as she only worked that station once before, before realizing that she should have told Benjamin that before the placements. Despite missing the mushrooms and parmesan, Benjamin told her that it still tasted good, and she claimed that he was giving her more respect than the red team did all season as she got her refire accepted. When Robyn struggled on meat, she felt that the former needed to be gone from meat, and after seeing Robyn reheat a lamb on a filet pan, she remarked that there were a lot of sauté pans in the kitchen, before commenting that they were supposed to make Benjamin good that night. Benjamin eventually lost the finale to Michelle, and during the celebration, she tried to comfort a crying Elise by reminding her that she was on the winning team.[32]
