Episode Synopsis
The final four compete in a "Culinary Decathlon" Skill Drill to test their knowledge thus far. Then, the chefs teach a complicated dessert technique featuring a flambé presentation. For the Main Dish Challenge, some special guests arrive for the recruits and their loved ones reveal a favorite dish for them to prepare. The recruits must then make that dish using a recipe written by their chef and serve the flambé dessert tableside. After the tasting, each chef decides who will advance to the final challenge.
