The first four competitors are introduced; the chefs are challenged to whip up a creative and tasty dessert.

Masters must perfect the art of tailgating for hungry football fans.

Voices from "The Simpsons" judge the quickfire challenge; Masters must use often unappetizing proteins in a surf and turf dish.

The chefs re-create a junk-food classic and make the perfect three-course mini-meal; guests Jeff Lewis and Jenni Pulos ("Flipping Out").

Chefs play "Name That Ingredient"; Masters must create a dish inspired by a Greek God.

The remaining four chefs' sense of humor is put to the test through a trip to the storied improv comedy club, the Groundlings, and the chefs are given three words of inspiration from which to create their dishes.
