MasterChef: Dynamic Duos episode 7 return date at Fox

Before we get too deep into this particular MasterChef: Dynamic Duos article, let’s just make the following clear: A hiatus is coming.

So, how long are we talking about here? For those watching Fox programming for the first time, it is pretty common for them to take a break around July 4. That is what is happening here, as the cooking competition is currently scheduled to air a repeat on July 2. The plan instead it for it to be back the following week on the ninth with an episode titled “Mystery Box.”

Why would the producers name this episode after something so exceedingly common to this franchise? Well, the MasterChef: Dynamic Duos episode 7 synopsis below makes that clear, and it seems as though a big-time twist is at the center of what’s happening here:

The five duos on the losing team from the previous challenge face the first Pressure Test of the season. The pairs enter the MasterChef kitchen to find a Mystery Box with a mallet inside. Gordon reveals the Mystery Box IS their ingredient. The box is made completely out of chocolate! In this first dessert challenge of the season, each duo must smash up their box and use the chocolate to make a stunning sweet dish to avoid elimination in the all-new “Mystery Box” episode of MasterChef airing Wednesday, Jul 9 (8:00-9:02 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (MCH-1507) (TV-14 L)

We’re going to be the first to admit here that if we were in this kitchen, we are not even sure we’d be able to make a dish with the chocolate. Why just not eat it immediately? Still, you gotta give the producers a certain amount of credit here for being willing to think at least somewhat outside the (mystery) box. This should be fun, and that’s without even getting into the personalities of the contestants themselves.
