Likewise, the first five chefs to complete the oranges became the second team, while the rest became the third team. Once the third team entered the kitchen, all teams had fifteen minutes to make two dishes featuring their prepped ingredients. Instead of immunity from elimination, the winners received an advantage in the Elimination Challenge.
