"MasterChef Junior" season 4 is now down to just four contestants, and the remaining young cooks have to fight in order to get a spot in the finale.

According to Zap2It, in the next episode titled "Head of the Class," the judges, Graham Elliot, Christina Tosi, and Gordon Ramsay will feature some "surprises" hidden under the four cloches placed on a table. Christina says they have prepared something "very special" under the domes, while Graham announces, "Prepare yourselves to be inspired," as he lifts the covers. Apparently, under those domes are the heads of the remaining contestants' parents.

Addison Smith, Amaya Baez, Avery Kyle, and Zac Kara all look surprised to see one of their parents in the "MasterChef" kitchen, but Amaya, the 9-year-old kiddie chef from Bergenfield, New Jersey, can't help reveal her feelings and said, "Real Creepy!"

Besides this interesting visit from their loved ones, the four young contestants would also have to go through a mini-challenge that involves making a soufflé, and it appears that Addison will win this round, according to the International Business Times.

Based on the promo posted on the website, Addison will have an advantage because of her victory, which seems to be choosing the protein that they will cook for the Elimination Challenge. In the sneak peek, the young chef from River Forest, Illinois says to the judges, "Man you're grossing me out," since the protein featured are pig ears. However, she and the other contenders will have to keep themselves together in cooking the pig ears, no matter how gross, since this challenge will determine who will continue in the finale of "MasterChef Junior" season 4.

The official synopsis of the upcoming "MasterChef Junior" episode was posted on TV.com, and it reads, "The Top 4 cooks compete to see who can make the ultimate soufflé, and the winner gets an advantage in the next elimination challenge, which involves a specific cut of pork and determines who will be the two finalists."

Watch the semifinals of "MasterChef Junior" season 4 on Fox tonight, Jan. 22.
