There were a lot of things happening in Top Chef: World All-Stars season 20 episode 8, starting with Charbel's elimination, which shocked many people, to Tom Goetter's behavior throughout the episode towards his teammates. Episode 8 of Top Chef: World All-Stars season 20 began with an around-the-world challenge, where the contestants were put to the test.
This Quickfire Challenge required the chefs to blind-select a popular street food from 16 different countries. The contestants were divided into three teams for the elimination challenge: yellow, green, and red. Charbel, Sara, and Amar made up the Green Team while the Yellow Team consisted of Ali, Tom, and Gabri. Nicole, Buddha, and Victoire were members of the Red Team.
In round three of the elimination challenge, Chefs had to choose ingredients from Abu Dhabi, Cuba, and Scotland. Tom seemingly trampled Gabriel Rodriguez throughout the duration of the test since he insisted on making peppers and asked Rodriguez to French the meat.
While Gabriel Rodriguez himself admitted he had never frenched meat before, Tom did not listen to him. Although the yellow team won the lamb task, Gabriel was unable to clean the lamb bones, which resulted in his team finishing last once again. As a result, the green team took the lambs, the red team took the dates, and the yellow team took the peppers.
This challenge ended with the yellow team winning and Tom winning the challenge individually. This gave the yellow team a chance to attend the premiere of Fast X. In the aftermath of this episode of Top Chef: World All-Stars season 20, fans pointed out Tom's selfish behavior toward his teammate and criticized him for not working together.

In his exit interview, he stated:
“I have no regrets, to be honest. I learned a lot. I’m so grateful that I’m able to put my country on the map. That’s an achievement by itself. At 25 I’m here, I’m still a student. I want to keep learning. That’s not the end for me. This is just the beginning. I’ll be back, stronger.”
