Four "Chopped" newbies must figure out what to do with an alligator heart in the appetizer basket; the entrée basket serves up a bird and birthday treat surprise before an oversized ice cream product has the competitors thinking big for dessert.

A trendy pastry in the first round inspires debate among the chefs, while the steaks in the second round aren't the gifts they seem to be; in the final round, the chefs must figure out how to make a hybrid comfort food go with a savory frozen item.

In the first round, the chefs get cracking to procure crab meat to make their appetizers; then, a strange dip in the second round is a big part of the challenge, while the dessert basket is filled with plenty of fun, including mocktails and fruit balls.
