The judges challenge the remaining seven amateur cooks to use their imagination in the next mystery box challenge, which features shrimp. The hopefuls will have a very limited pantry and little time to create a standout dish that will impress the judges. The winner of the mystery box challenge will determine which savory ingredient the remaining hopefuls must incorporate into a dessert dish in the elimination round. Find out whose savory treat will please the judges and who will be on the chopping block.

The final five contestants open their mystery box to find it empty and then told to pick ingredients they would like to use to make an incredible entree of their choosing for the judges. After selecting their ingredients with glee the contestants are given the inevitable twist, it is just not that easy. After the mystery Box challenge the winning contest is taken to the pantry and given a huge advantage in the elimination test. The winner is allowed to pick from a selection of dishes created by Graham Elliot for all the contestants to prepare. A white tuna dish Graham Elliot had prepared for President Barrack Obama was selected and all contestants were given 30 minutes to recreate the dish. Winners and losers were selected and a losing contestant was sent home.
