A familiar face returns to the competition; Tom cooks up a dish that Kristen and Gail can't resist; the chefs must serve their creations directly on a tabletop to Kristen, Tom, Gail and guest judge Curtis Duffy.

For the Quickfire challenge, the chefs undergo a blind taste test where they must identify as many ingredients as they can. Guest judge Paul Bartolotta joins the host judges.

The final four chefs must create a dish highlighting fish and cheese to impress Kristen, Tom, Gail and local guest judge Helmi Smeulders.
