Oddly enough, every man on the blue team made tortellinis. Luckily for them, the two dishes the women did cook were more complete than the men's, and as a result, the women were handed their third win in a row. As a result, the women made two of the three dishes.

Both teams' communication broke down, although the women's breakdown would have seemed to be more damaging as they failed to pass off the name of one of the entr¿es between Rachel and Maribel. They would have 15 seconds to give both the names of the entr¿es and their current preparation status to that teammate. Each person would have five minutes to cook the dishes before they would hand off the cooking to the next teammate. After Sara arrived, Chef explained the challenge. The reality again didn't meet the teaser's implication, but I really wasn't expecting it to this time.

As to the teaser about one of the crew going missing, Sara was four minutes later than everyone else to arrive at the morning line-up with the Chef since everyone left her behind - and he mentioned how he wished there was more team stability. Coming off two wins in the last episode, both of the challenge and the service, the girls are nonetheless flying high. The women were shocked that Gordon would do that, now realizing that just because they aren't nominated (through alliances or other reasons) does not mean they won't be going home if their team loses. ' 9 Chefs' begins as players file out after Gabe was eliminated, even though he wasn't nominated by Garrett (the best of the worst last week).
