**That whole episode was amazing. When Joe decides to put Raw onions in a French Onion Soup and Ramsay goes off on him with such anger and ferocity.

He ends up prepping, cooking and serving the lunch item (tomato soup with a toasted cheese sandwich) ''by himself'', and ends up making over €500 in profit.

** Ramsay during that entire episode was awesome, calling the owners out multiple times on their bullshit and twice telling customers what was wrong with the place. He also stuck up for the abused waitresses, telling the customers that they were getting their rightfully deserved tips stolen. Given the managers' behavior, he acted very calm and mature and was a much bigger person than they were. Any other person would have given up on them a long time ago. Or punch them in the face. Or shoot them.

** Another in that episode is basically anytime that Mama Mary opens her mouth: First, she tells her daughter to shut up, ditch her arrogance, and accept the help that Gordon is offering, and the second is when she confronts her daughter for walking out of the dinner service, telling her that if she is going to behave like this, she should just close the restaurant down.

Not to mention her red velvet cake was the only food Ramsay liked during his sample meal.

* In the Spin-A-Yarn Steakhouse episode the owner, Saki, has his wife serve the restaurant's new signature prime rib table-side as part of an effort to involve her more in the business. Being new to the task she cuts enormous portions, practically giving away the meat. After an entire sports team arrive and all unanimously chose to order the steak, the owner, wife and Ramsay find out that (to their horror) there was only about 2 pounds of Rib left, certainly not enough to serve an entire team. Cue Victor, the head chef (who earlier in the episode was reduced to washing dishes during dinner service because of the lack of help) mentioning that he prepared one last Rib roast just in case something went wrong.

* The quote on the top of the main page comes from the American episode "Sebastian's", where the owner was a complete egomaniac nutcase who pretty much tried to actively sabotage Ramsay's efforts to improve his restaurant, hurting not just the business but the staff as well. After Sebastian tries to push his "concept" one final time, Ramsay pulls him aside and calmly tells him that. After watching this guy act like a massive JerkAss the whole episode, seeing Ramsay put that schmuck in his place is immensely satisfying.

** It's not made entirely clear to the viewer just why this is so crucial. Prime rib is different than some other steaks because it takes much longer to prepare properly. First, it (i) sits at room temperature for about two hours, then (ii) spends another two hours in the oven at varying temperatures. Without the "emergency" prime rib, then it would have been literally impossible to fill the order and no amount of chef wizardry could have done anything about it.
