Gary and George will be cooking the dish without knowing what they'll cook and without any recipe. The contestants will only dictate the recipe through the headphones worn by the judges, and their team will have only 15 minutes to finish the dish. George's Team (Sofia, Pierre, Emily, Sam and Alex) was faster but less efficient, while Gary's Team (Anthony, Lucy, Siena, Nick and Cassidy) went on a slow pace and won for having a tastier dish. Afterwards, Isabella and Jack enter the kitchen to begin the competition. To determine the Junior MasterChef, Isabella and Jack will battle in two rounds: an Invention Test and a Pressure Test. Each round, the cooks will be scored from a total of 50. Prior the challenge, it was announced that Vue de Monde executive chef Shannon Bennett will join Matt, Anna, Gary and George in the judging table. For the Invention Test, Isabella and Jack can freely pick what will be the core ingredient of their dish. Jack's Tea Smoked Quail in a Citrus Sauce with Dressed Mushrooms gathered 41 out of 50 from the judges, while Isabella's Scallops with Garlic Custard, Seaweed Broth and Lemon and Blood Orange Jelly received 47 out of 50, winning her the Invention Test. In the second part of the challenge, Jack and Isabella undergo a Pressure Test where they will recreate Adriano Zumbo's Pear Perfection. The challenge saw Jack prevailing with a massive 53 points, earning the grade after collecting 11 out of 10 scores from three out of the 5 judges. Despite Jack's ginormous score of 94 out of 100, Isabella won after getting a perfect score of 50 points, putting her total into 97 out of 100. Jack received a trophy, a set of culinary equipment, and a $10,000 trust fund; Isabella, on the other hand, received a larger trophy and a $15,000 trust fund. As the two chefs embrace their families, Gary reveals that they and their families will go to Tokyo and Tokyo Disneyland courtesy of JetStar. See less
