Ep 9. The Undertater

The popular cooking competition show Cutthroat Kitchen returns for its fifth season with an exciting new episode called The Undertater. In this episode, four talented chefs will compete against each other to win the grand prize of $25,000.

The show's host, Alton Brown, starts the episode by introducing the chefs and outlining the challenges that they will face during the episode. As always, there is a twist - this time, it's that all of the dishes the chefs create must feature potatoes as the main ingredient.

The contestants are given $25,000 each to start with, but they must bid against each other to sabotage their opponents throughout the competition. For example, one chef may bid to take away another chef's utensils or force them to cook on only one burner. The contestants must balance their bids against their budget, as the money they spend on sabotage ultimately comes out of their final prize money.

The first challenge is a classic kitchen staple - an omelet. But with an added twist - the chefs are only allowed to use a spatula to cook their eggs. The chefs scramble to get started, but quickly realize that cooking an omelet with a spatula is much harder than it seems.

The sabotages start to pile up, with one chef being forced to cook their omelet in a martini shaker and another being stuck with a hot plate as their only cooking surface. Despite the added challenges, the chefs push through and present their best omelets to the judges.

The second challenge is a culinary game of telephone. Each chef is given a dish to recreate, but they can only ask the chef before them one question about the original recipe. The catch? The original dish has been completely altered by the first chef and every subsequent chef adds their own twist.

The sabotages start to get more intense, with one chef being forced to wear a potato head mask while cooking and another being limited to just one hand to cook with. Despite the added challenges, the chefs manage to create some truly unique and flavorful dishes.

In the final challenge, the remaining chefs must create a dish using potatoes as the base ingredient. This is where the competition really heats up, as the chefs pull out all the stops to create the most impressive dish they can.

The sabotages continue to mount, with one chef being forced to wear a potato sack over their head while cooking and another being limited to just one hand to cook with. Despite the added challenges, the chefs manage to create some truly unique and flavorful dishes.
