Episode 11
The last four chefs taking part in this year's competition hit the stoves. Awaiting them are two challenges that would have any professional chef quivering in the wings. They will need to outperform their rivals if they want a coveted place in the quarter-final.
It's a nerve-wracking start as they each take on the skills test. Marcus asks the first two chefs to dish up a beef fillet, with mushrooms on toast and a red wine sauce. Cooking the meat is one thing, but packing flavour into a rich, deep, red wine sauce, in just 20 minutes, will truly test their professional prowess.
The next two contenders will be hoping their dessert skills are up to scratch, as they attempt Monica's recipe for a scrumptious tiramisu. To triumph in this task, the judges will be expecting just the right blend of coffee-soaked sponge, cream and sweet mascarpone – all layered to perfection.
The four will then get a chance to size up the competition as they deliver their signature menu. One main course and one dessert that fully showcase their talents. Taking a risk might just pay off for the professionals, or it could signal their downfall. There's only one way to find out.
It's then time for the verdict. Which chefs have shown themselves in the best light and are deserving of a place in the last quarter-final?

Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
