In Thursday's episode of "Hell's Kitchen," Foxworth Chef Raneisha Conerly and the 13 other remaining chefs will tackle some "Fusion Confusion."

"I have no words," Conerly said. "Just gratitude."

Conerly's on-camera persona, however, is full of words, including some angry ones unleashed in the first few minutes of episode 5 dropped on Chef Jason Hedin, one of two chefs nominated for elimination in episode 4. Host Chef Gordon Ramsay sent home Chef Mattias Butts.

The chefs in episode 6 must prepare fusion dishes with a soccer theme for Ramsay and guest judges Chef Tony Messina and legendary soccer player Alexi Lalas, who played on the U.S. men's team in the 1994 World Cup.

Fusion cuisine incorporates ingredients and cooking techniques from different countries to forge a new dish.

Last week, Conerly was one of the chefs considered for elimination by her teammates, but in the end, it was Sandra Gajovsky and Melissa Irons who were nominated to go before Ramsay and face the music. Irons was the chef who eventually was sent packing.

Red Team

Conerly remains on the Red Team with Sandra Gajovsky, Carmen Ibarra, Atoye Johnson, Leigh Orleans, Sammi Tarantino and Donya Taylor. Eliminated: Claudia Diawara, episode 3; Melissa Irons, episode 5.

Blue Team

The Blue Team includes Johnathan Benvenuti, Brad Delgado, Jason Hedin, Dahmere Merriweather, Devon Rosenblatt, Ryan O'Sullivan and Jermaine Wright. Eliminated: Tad Walters, episode 2; Mattias Butts, episode 4.
