Hell's Kitchen
Mary Ellen came into Hell's Kitchen very quiet and innocent, and was in the background most of the time. However, during services, Mary Ellen was extremely inconsistent and received mixed reviews. During episode 4 of the competition, Mary Ellen was nominated by her friend Jessica Cabo after a poor performance hoping that she would stay over Andrew Bonito. However this wasn't the case and Mary Ellen was eliminated from the competition. Mary Ellen did not return to the finale for unknown reasons and Jeffery Dewberry took her place.

Season 1
"I think that Chef Ramsay's decision was the wrong decision. I don't believe I was the weak link on the team tonight I think as shown in the past it was Andrew that was the weak link. I think that Andrew will be joining me shortly."
