It's the episode we've all been waiting for these past ten weeks: the Top Chef: Just Desserts finale!
In the first preview video (below), it's the morning of the final challenge and the remaining chefs are reflecting on the past few weeks and the big challenge ahead of them. Morgan is still bitching about Zac and calls him an "annoying little fairy." Regardless if we were fans of Zac or not, could you make us dislike you any more, Morgan? Danielle has some confidence going into this because she won the last Elimination Challenge and actually made it to the finale. Good for her, I say, but I hope she doesn't get too cocky (that's Morgan's job) because as we've learned in past Top Chef finales, NO ONE IS SAFE! Oh, and Yigit is walking around shirtless again.
For their final challenge, I'm not too sure what to expect other than the judges, some other highly acclaimed pastry chefs (whom we'll get no background info on) and Zac will be at a big table judging their desserts. As usual, there's a twist, but from the looks of the preview video, I think it'll end up being just like past finale challenges and they'll let some chefs who were kicked off act as their sous chefs to help them out. Or it could be the Jonas Bothers. Judging from the inane twists we've seen so far, anything goes.
