After appearing at the kitchen, Yoo-gyeong heads straight to the cold storage room without glancing at Hyun-wook. After calming herself down, Yoo-gyeong gets cheerful again when Hyun-wook talks gently to her. Hyun-wook announces that Seok-ho and his team can enter the New Chef Cooking Competition under one condition and thats that everyone pull together and help Seok-hos team. He divides the chefs into pairs to prepare for the competition. Yoo-gyeong will participate in the competition as a back-up chef. With the competition approaching, the chefs practice intensely during their breaks. Seok-ho asks Hyun-wook to replace Yoo-gyeong with Eun-soo but Hyun-wook denies his request. Yoo-gyeong expresses her confidence on doing a good job. When Hyun-wook sees that Ho-nams wrists are injured, he urges him to see a doctor but Ho-nam replies that hes all right. When Yoo-gyeong finds out that San was the person secretly slipping photos of cactus plants to her, she is filled with mixed feelings of gratitude and guilt. The day of the cooking competition arrives at last.
