In the first episode of Hell's Kitchen season 4, 15 chefs from across America are introduced as the contestants competing for the grand prize of running their own restaurant. The episode begins with the chefs being split into two teams: the Red Team, made up of seven females, and the Blue Team, made up of eight males.

The first challenge of the season is given by the infamous host, Chef Gordon Ramsay. The chefs are tasked with creating their signature dish, which they have 45 minutes to complete. The dishes are then presented to Ramsay, who chooses the best three dishes from each team. These six chefs are then given the opportunity to taste a surprise dish prepared by Ramsay, and are challenged to recreate it in 30 minutes.

After the dishes are presented to Ramsay, he declares the Red Team as the winners of the challenge, allowing them to enjoy a day of pampering at a posh spa. The Blue Team, on the other hand, must clean and prepare the kitchen for dinner service.

The dinner service proves to be a disaster, with both teams struggling to complete orders and keep up with the pace of service. Ramsay repeatedly calls out the chefs for their mistakes and poor communication, and at one point even kicks a chef out of the kitchen due to their incompetence.

Despite their initial success in the signature dish challenge, the Red Team eventually falls apart during dinner service, with one chef in particular causing chaos by serving raw chicken to customers. In the end, the Blue Team is declared the winner of the dinner service, earning them immunity from the next elimination.

As the chefs return to the dorms, tensions are high as they prepare for the first elimination. After Ramsay gathers the teams together, he declares that two chefs from the losing team will be up for elimination. The chefs must then choose two of their own to be put up for elimination.

After a tense deliberation, the Red Team makes the difficult decision to put up the chef who served raw chicken and another chef who struggled during the dinner service. The Blue Team puts up two chefs who struggled during the signature dish challenge.

In the end, Ramsay announces that the chef who served raw chicken will be the first to leave Hell's Kitchen season 4. As the remaining 14 chefs prepare for their next challenge, the competition has only just begun.
