The Bleeping Bleep Report: Episode 5

The Bleeping Bleep Report for Hell's Kitchen: Epside 5.

Whoa, the numbers are way below average.  In this installment, the "Dinner Service" was breakfast at 6:30am for Emergency Room workers:  Doctors, Nurses, and Paramedics.  Was the reduction in bleeps because the competing chefs were tired or because breakfast foods are simpler than Chef Ramsay's ordinary dinner fare?  We may never know for sure.  But even Gordon Ramsay's bleep count was down.

Here are the numbers:

Chef Gordon Ramsay:  12
Amanda:  1
Nedra:  14
Cyndi:  3
Zach:  3
Jon:  3
Dan:  2
Barrett:  4
Jacqueline:  5
Mary:  0
Anthony:  0
Raymond:  4
Ja'nel:  0
Michael:  3
Jessica:  0
Jeremy:  1
Susan:  0
Unknown:  9
TOTAL:  64
That's about 1.33 bleeps per minute or one bleep every 43 seconds assuming an air time of 46 minutes.

Special note:  The women lost the Breakfast Service and were required to choose two people for elimination.  Nedra went on a bleeping rampage when her name was mentioned ... 9 bleeps in less than 20 seconds.  This is a little over two thirds of over total bleep count for the episode.

Who was let go?  Jacqueline and Mary were eventually chosen to go up for elimnation.  But Chef Ramsay created a cliff-hanger episode by not eliminating either until next episode.

My guess?  He's not letting anyone go this time because Gina voluntarily left at the beginning of Episode 3.  So the contest has been short one chef.  Giving everyone a break will bring us back to a 20 episode season.
