In Mystery Diners season 4 episode 1, titled Chef's Choice, restaurant owners are concerned about a drop in their sales and suspect the new chef they hired is stealing recipes and customers. Charles Stiles and his team of mystery diners go undercover to investigate the situation and ensure the restaurant's success.

The episode begins with the worried owners expressing their concerns to Charles about the declining sales and the strange behavior of their new chef, who seems to be very secretive about his cooking techniques and ingredients. They fear that he may be stealing their recipes and using them to open his own restaurant or even selling them to their competitors.

Charles assigns two of his mystery diners, Tracy and William, to go undercover as food critics and taste the chef's dishes and observe his behavior. Meanwhile, another team of investigators sets up hidden cameras in the kitchen to film any suspicious activity.

The first night, the mystery diners are impressed with the food and the restaurant's ambiance, but they notice that the chef is very protective of his recipes and refuses to show them to the staff. Tracy and William strike up a conversation with the chef and learn that he is planning to open his own restaurant in a few months and wants to perfect the recipes before he leaves.

The following night, Tracy notices that the chef is behaving strangely and seems to be hiding something. She decides to investigate further and goes to the kitchen, where she finds a secret stash of ingredients and recipe cards that don't belong to the restaurant. She takes pictures of the evidence and reports back to Charles.

Charles and his team review the evidence and discover that the new chef is indeed stealing recipes and ingredients from the restaurant and using them to create his own dishes. They also find out that he has been using the restaurant's social media accounts to promote his new dishes and attract customers to his upcoming restaurant.

Charles sets up a meeting with the chef and confronts him with the evidence. The chef denies any wrongdoing, but Charles shows him the pictures and threatens to report him to the authorities if he doesn't return the stolen ingredients and recipes. The chef complies and agrees to leave the restaurant immediately.

The episode concludes with the restaurant owners thanking Charles and his team for their help and promising to keep a closer eye on their chefs and staff in the future. Charles reminds them that it's important to trust their employees but also to verify their claims and behaviors to ensure the success of their businesses.
