The Top 12 home cooks enter the MasterChef Canada kitchen for their first Mystery Box challenge featuring coffee. The judges divide the room, forcing half the cooks to prepare sweet coffee dishes and the other half to make savory plates. Kagan secures the win with a savory coffee-crusted steak and celery puree, earning immunity and control over the Elimination Challenge.

Targeting his biggest competition, Kagan assigns the remaining unprotected cooks either a "luxury wallet" (requiring them to spend at least $50 in the pantry) or a "budget wallet" (capping their spend at $10). Jonathan proves that skill outshines cost, winning the challenge with a highly elevated $10 seared cod and corn succotash, while Michael V. secures second place with a luxury seafood paella. In the bottom two, Becky's overcooked $50 steak and onion dish narrowly survives against Melissa's underwhelming budget miso noodle salad, resulting in Melissa's elimination.
