Four chefs face a nail-biting elimination round. In front of Monica and Gregg, they have to earn the right to cook for the legendary Michel by demonstrating their culinary expertise with a skills test of jointing a rabbit and a palate test of making scrambled eggs. The remaining three professionals then face two more gruelling tests for Michel and Gregg. First, they must make two dishes in 50 minutes from the central ingredient of calves' liver, then they must recreate two classic dishes of matelotte d'anguille and a creme brulee.
