15:04, Rock getting mad over Lobster Bisque makes me laugh so hard.

[@MumaX992]

I don’t blame him. The challenge was all about being creative and that’s what he did. Instead of getting the victory, it loses to lobster bisque. Lobster bisque, something you can get at the grocery store or some other restaurant. But jokes on the person who won the creativity challenge because Rock was able to win Hell’s Kitchen altogether.

Nah he was just as passionate. Remember, the men had only won two challenges. It probably just built up to that point. Anyone would have lost their head.

[@levz360]

I mean to be fair she literally was waiting on him and Rock didn't communicate how long he'd be when she asked so all she really could say was she's waiting on the food. She didn't even say waiting on Rock she just stated the food he was making and Rock got hella defensive over it.

[@earlysportsph6297]

Rock is like a person who is really skillful but lack of opportunity because of he came from a poor family. People like that are very afraid to make mistakes or to f*ck things up because they understand that they need to work hard just to get an opportunity.

[@JohnDoe-fu4qd]

The producers and set designers really know how to make it look like the actual restaraunt. Hard to believe none of Hell's Kitchen was filmed in his actual restaurant. Rock rocked it.

[@mythbhavd]

Rock would throw shade and, as soon as he got it in return, would melt down and act like a 12 year old. She tried to talk to him before he went up the stairs and he told her off. He absolutely needed to apologize.

[@mr.turtle3585]

I love the last four chefs of this season, aside from Rock’s outburst, they all have so much talent, passion, and respect for one another. And as the cast shrinks all of it only grows. I especially love how both Rock and Bonnie are just all in on showing they’re own talent, and banter and hug despite being in direct competition.

[@SandraNelson063]

Rock grew up in the ghetto. That was key. My Dad was a Navy man. On HMCS Margaree, he was the supply officer. He worked closely with the kitchen/mess staff. The cooks taught him how to make various things, to bolster his mother's teaching. He loved hosting dinners at home. Once he decided to make lobster bisque for his guests. He had never made it before. He studied recipes for a week, then knocked it out of the park on the day of the dinner. His guests were delighted.

[@MamiRicaaaa]

No those women were rude this was ridiculous they were wrong!

[@gokuFreak3]

It’s really the moment that decided the win for Rock, in my opinion, when the last two ladies had that convo together about how much he wanted it and how his background gave him a different drive

[@GiantLittleWolf]

What annoys me about Rock and other contestants is that they act like babies when they lose a challenge. However, what was really fked up is that The Gordon called Rock all they way to the photoshoot just to pickup trash.

[@predatorcote1944]

[@latiffree]
