Since all the cooking is done already, the serving is pretty straightforward. The contestants bring their food out and say a few words about what they are. Andrea has a chicken dish, Paula has a poached sturgeon, and Danny has a blackened halibut with a peach salsa. We see the chefs eat. The customer-chefs, I mean. Confusing! They mark off their favorites and least favorites, and 76% mark Danny's dish as "least favorite". Gordon claims that means everyone hated his dish, which I think overstates it a bit. The most popular dish is Paula's. She gets a round of applause and seems quite pleased with herself. As well she might be!
Paula's reward is another of those spa days, with a haircut, manicure, and color. Gordon points out she's from Brazil, so he cheerfully throws a waxing into the reward. Well, great. She'll also get a surprise of some sort. The punishment for the other two is to clean and reset the dining room for the next night's service. And also do a bunch of laundry. Chef Ramsay thanks the customer-chefs and sends them off.
In the dorms, Andrea tells Paula she's going to get a magazine spread. She seems quite happy for her friend. Danny, meanwhile, is a big mopey-pants about losing. He's got dead eyes.
Paula goes off to a beauty salon with Jean-Philippe. He's being sent along as a beauty helper, I guess. Paula seems surprised that he's not married. I'm staying out of this. Beauty montage!
Back in the dining room, Danny and Andrea are ironing the tablecloths while Danny complains a lot. Paula shows back up and she looks about the same to me. She goes off to the dorms and interviews that she is in a pretty good mood and can't wait to see what the next half of her reward is.
