Synopsis

Auditions commence in the Midwest, with Graham Elliot lending his expertise as guest judge. Grant is the first to present himself, receiving three affirmative votes and the coveted first apron of the evening. Sarah follows suit, also earning three votes in her favor and an apron. Kevin begins with two negative responses and is thus eliminated from the competition. Yomira then takes the stage; though the precise number of negative votes remains undisclosed, she does not receive an apron. Marquela
