Right off the bat, it's odd that this episode essentially nullifies the entire point of last week's cliffhanger.
It's very anticlimactic to show the result via the "previously on Top Chef" package and not in the first minutes of the episode, but alas . . . we see Sylwia lose her cook-off at Highclere Castle and scoot off to "Last Chance Kitchen," while Tom rejoins the competition.
