## Brigade Selection

Vaughan introduced the finalists to the previous eliminated contestants who will be working for the final two. The chefs were Meghan, Helga, Zara, David, Timmy, Niko, Francis, and Tanya. Since Satyajeet won the Final Tasting Challenge he had first pick, and he chose Niko as he was very consistent. Jayden chose Francis because he was good at the meat station and would probably do well. Satyajeet's next pick was Tanya as they were very close and Tanya was also very consistent, while Jayden chose Timmy, Satyajeet chose Meghan, while Jayden chose Zara. Satyajeet had a difficult decision between the last two but ultimately chose David because he worked with him before leaving Jayden with Helga, who said she was very sad being last pick but said she wanted to help Jayden win. Vaughan told the finalists to make their own menus and dishes to put on their menus and then announced he will be tasting the dishes.

Satyajeet was shown telling David to cook the crab cakes however, they came out way too burnt which made Satyajeet tell him to refire it. Jayden said she was stoked and was shown telling all of her team to cook and focus. Eventually all the dishes were plated and ready.

Firstly, Satyajeet presented his ceasar salad which was dressed nicely, and said to be perfect which made him happy. Vaughan revealed that the crab cake was burned and Satyajeet said that he should've checked the crab cakes before plating it. Vaughan said to Satyajeet that he won't allow burned food to be served and reminded him to fix it. The lamb was said to be cooked nicely along with the pork and the dessert impressing Vaughan. Meanwhile, Jayden presented her menu, and her fish was deemed nice along with her lamb and chicken, however her spaghetti was said to be slightly crunchy but Vaughan was impressed with the raspberry cake. But Vaughan told Jayden, to fix the spaghetti and telling her it needs a little bit of work to fix.

## Service

 **Meat** | Tanya
 **Fish** | Niko
 **Garnish** | David

At the start of service, Both teams received their first order, Tanya was cooking lamb and sent it to the pass but Satyajeet rejected it for being overcooked and had to refire it. Vaughan praised Satyajeet for noticing that mistake and told him to keep it up. Meanwhile Timmy sent up the lamb and accepted it which made him happy. Zara sent up the garnish but was sent back for being burnt which Jayden told Zara to refire impressing Vaughan. Zara sent her refire of garnish but it got sent back for being burnt again which made Jayden kick her off her station and switched her to fish while Francis got switched to garnish to takeover. Francis sent up the garnish, and it finally got accepted thanks to him. Back with Satyajeet's kitchen Niko sends out his first order of fish and it deemed to be cooked perfectly while Satyajeet asks Tanya how long on meat but she doesn't initially respond, which makes Satyajeet ask again and Tanya says 2 minutes and sends it up but it gets rejected again for being overcooked. Which makes Satyajeet call all the red team down to the front. Niko says that Tanya is screwing up the lamb and needs to bounce back. Meanwhile Jayden's team moves onto entrees and Jayden moves Zara back on garnish. Zara sends up garnish, but again gets sent back for being burnt which Jayden tells her to wake up. Back with the red team, Tanya is still struggling on lamb and when she sends it up it gets sent back for being not overcooked but raw which leads to Satyajeet kicking her out of the kitchen and Satyajeet tells David to takeover meat station. David sends out the lamb and it gets accepted which makes Satyajeet pleased. While Zara continues to struggle on garnish by burning garnish again which makes Jayden kick Zara out of the kitchen. Jayden asks Helga to takeover garnish. Meanwhile Meghan sends out the risotto and it gets accepted. Vaughan tells Satyajeet to keep up with the great performance.
