Episode synopsis

In this debut episode of the sixth season of the show, the new batch of contestants must bring in something they do not deserve, eat some elusive melba toast, show off their best party trick, slow down Olli's trip from A to B, and draw a happy horse upside-down.

Title context

"The new chef" is how Kristoffer Olsen refers to himself, while telling an anecdote about how a member of theatre staff did not recognise him.
