All language subtitles for MasterChef - 03x17 - Top 5 Compete.LOL.English.HI.C.updated.Addic7ed.com

(Male announcer)
Previously on Masterchef...

Come on, guys!

(Announcer)
The home cooks took control

of a michelin star restaurant.

You guys are [Bleep]
killing me right now.

Come on.

(Announcer) But they gave Gordon
ramsay a lot to shout about.

I need to tell Joe something!

I don't know.
No, you don't [Bleep] know.

Not only will we [Bleep]
lose the michelin star,

we'll burn the place down.

(Announcer)
When Frank's team lost,

they were sent
to the pressure test.

And when Frank was given
the chance to save one person...

I know I said
I would send Josh up there.

(Announcer) He chose himself.

But I got to go upstairs, guys.

(Announcer) Leaving David and
Josh to go head to head.

And it was David who lost
the high-stakes pressure test.

It's time to leave
the masterchef kitchen.

Tonight, the competition
is intense

as the final five
become the final four.

Oh, [Bleep].

I cannot believe
I just did that.

(Announcer) As one more masterchef
hopeful sees their dream come to an end.

For the first time in this
competition, I'm lost for words.

Sync and corrections by Ferke
www.addic7ed.com

welcome.

Top five.
Yikes.

Becky, Frank, Josh,

Christine... Me?

Like, how did this happen?

(Gordon) We're down to you,

the five best home cooks
in America.

The dream is nearly a reality.

But there's still a few hoops
to jump through

before you get your hands on
that coveted masterchef trophy.

Tonight, that hoop is
another mystery box challenge.

(Announcer) As with every
mystery box challenge,

the contestants have
to prepare, cook, and present

one incredible dish, using all

or some of the ingredients
inside the box.

On the count of three,
please lift your boxes.

But beware for a sting
in the tail.

What?

One, two...

[Bleep]

Three and lift.

Wow.

What?

[Frank laughing]

Oh, you guys are funny.

Christine, there's nothing
in there.

I figured.

We are not creating
this mystery box.

You are.

Cool.
So, turn that box over.

Each of you
will go into the pantry

and choose a maximum
of 15 ingredients

that can create a dish

that says "you" on a plate.

You're the top five.

It's time to show us
who you really are.

Now.

We're given this gift of getting
to go into the pantry,

we get to choose up to 15 items.

One, two, three, four, five...

To create, essentially, like,
our perfect signature dish,

like, ourselves on a plate.

I haven't had a chance to make
sausage this whole competition,

so I want to make the
traditional calabrese recipe.

I'm gonna make
an exquisite dessert dish.

And so I grabbed chocolate
and raspberries.

My dream mystery box
is in my hands.

You'll all have 60 minutes
to make one stunning dish.

Are you ready?
Yes, chef.

Your time starts in five,

four, three, two, one.

Stop, stop.

Come on.

It's never going to be
that easy.

No.

Please, no.

(Gordon)
Take every ounce of ingredients

on that chopping board...

I loved this.

And take it to the home cook

in front of you.

[Bleep].

Oh, no, dude.

[Chuckles]

This is craziness, man.

Get familiar
with your new ingredients.

Enjoy it, Becky.
Oh, dude.

Frank, I'm so sorry, man.

Lucky, Christine.

Whatever, man.

You better do this good.

So I get Josh's box,

and I'm not thrilled with
the ingredients I'm looking at.

Celery, really?
[Laughs]

So, Becky gets my mystery box,
and I get Frank's.

And I see a lot
of Italian ingredients.

I'm thinking, "what am I going
to do with this?"

You have goat cheese,
chicken thighs,

and parsnips,
and you have heavy cream.

So, I get Becky's box,
and I'm screwed

because these
are not ingredients

I normally work with.
[Groans]

I'm getting
Christine's mystery box.

What the hell is fish sauce?

Fish sauce?

And why does it taste
like death?

All right, guys.

You have 60 minutes
to make a dish

that still puts you on a plate,

but using someone else's
handpicked ingredients.

Your time starts now.

Umm, let's see, what can I do?

We just turned the masterchef
kitchen upside down.

And they have to think
on their feet.

This is the essence
of being a creative chef.

So Josh has got everything
that Frank loved.

I think he'll take those
ingredients and interpret them

in some sort of Southern way.

And Josh's Southern components

went over to Becky.

She was picking chicken thighs
to use,

and that's what Josh gave her.
Yeah.

So, I mean, she should be able

to transform it
into whatever she wants.

(Joe) And everything Becky picked
has gone over to Christine.

Now, Christine was going to do
something certainly Asian,

perhaps vietnamese for us.

Now it looks like she has
beet tops and goat cheese.

All that Asian influence
goes to monti.

I don't think monti can pull off
the vietnamese box.

Really?
Nope.

I don't think she has the skill

or the experience
or even the palate to do it.

So, Becky.
Hello.

You got Josh's box.
Yeah.

Are you feeling good about it?

Yeah.
I'm feeling pretty good.

The dish is going
to be braised chicken,

and then I pulled
the skins off.

I'm going to crisp those up
separately.

You've been in the top three

in five mystery boxes.

Can you make it six?

I can, and I will.

Becky's head is in the clouds
right now.

She's getting so many
high praises from the judges,

and Becky walks around
like she already won this thing.

Right, Frank.

Hey, chef.
You're out of your comfort zone.

You're cooking
with monti's ingredients.

(Frank)
Yeah. Definite reversal.

Where are we going?

I made a ricotta filling,
and I got the chocolate,

I got some raspberry, so I'll
be able to do something nice.

Good luck.

You've got just under 15 minutes
to go, guys.

Come on.

So, Josh,
whose box do you have?

I have Frank's box.
And Frank was going to make?

Some kind of pasta
with Italian sausage.

But I'm going to make
a savory bread pudding

with some of the ground pork
and spices,

and hopefully
they come out right.

Good luck.

I'm creating as I go along,

because I've never
done this before.

I've had tom kha, so I know
the flavor to look for.

I'm letting my palate guide me.

Kind of going blind right now.

I feel like Christine.

I feel like I'm sort of
channeling Christine,

just tasting and tasting
and just trying to, like,

close my eyes and see if this
is the flavor that I want.

This is why Christine
does so well.

I'm learning something here.

Interesting.
Yeah.

I really like
what Becky's cooking.

It's got a little touch
of the South,

but she made it her own.
It really looks delicious.

Yeah that crispy chicken skin
looks beautiful.

If Christine gets all these
ingredients on the plate,

chicken, mushrooms, beets,
it's a classic.

I'm worried about monti's dish.
Yeah.

I think monti's
is good, though.

I just tasted it. Yeah.
She's got chilies in it.

(Joe) Really?

(Graham) Some cilantro.

I think it's going to be yummy.

Two minutes to go.
Start plating, guys, come on.

(Joe) Let's go, guys.
Put it on the plate.

Come on, Becky.
Move those fingers.

Finishing touches, come on.

You have got to get some food
on the plate.

Ten, nine, eight,

seven, six, five,

four, three, two,

one, and stop.

Stand behind your dishes.

Well done.
Oh, [Bleep].

What's wrong, Becky?

My crispy chicken skin
is sitting right there.

Your crispy chicken skin
is sitting right where?

In the oven.

On a sheet tray ready
for me to grab it.

I'm just so irritated
with myself.

Time got the better of you.

I'm, like, dying on the inside.

I cannot believe
I just did that.

Let's go, guys.
Put it on the plate.

(Gordon)
Five, four, three, two,

one, and stop.

Hands up in the air.

Oh, [Bleep].

What's wrong, Becky?

My crispy chicken skin
is in the oven.

I had 30 seconds left,

and I just didn't get
that chicken skin on the plate.

[Bleep].
I screwed that one up.

It's very disappointing.

(Announcer) Having carefully
tasted everything

throughout the challenge,
the judges now take

one final look to identify
three standout dishes.

Damn it.
That is the best part there.

[Whimpers]

Okay.
This first dish,

it was put together
with elegance and great flavor.

And the balance was superb.

Congratulations to...

Josh.
Let's go.

Well done.

I made a savory bread pudding.

I sauteed
some of the ground pork

and toasted the French bread

so it can absorb
most of that liquid,

and I topped it
with spring onions

and the fresh mozzarellas
that Frank picked out.

You had to cook
with the ingredients

that Frank picked for himself.

Yeah.
Yup.

My guess is that he was not
going to make that.

No way in hell he's gonna
make that.

Frank, what were you gonna
make, just so we know?

I was--I was going
to make a sausage sandwich

with sauteed beet Greens
and those onions on top.

Nice.

It--it...

I don't know
how to describe it.

It's so...

Flavorful.

Great use of what you had.

This is really tasty.
I'd keep eating forever,

thanks. But I'm
going to hold back.

Good job.
Thank you.

It's delicious.

Yeah, it is authentic.
It's spicy.

Great job, Josh.

Thank you, chef.
A definite confirmation

that you deserve
to be in this competition

with one foot
potentially in the top four.

Great job.
Thank you.

Wow.
[Whistles]

It doesn't seem like you were
thrown a curve ball at all.

This seemed like you
went into the pantry

and picked out
the ingredients to make

a delicious, homey,
well-cooked dish.

[Sighs] Thank you.

Have you ever won
a mystery box?

Never did.

Good job, Josh.
Thank you, Joe.

Well done.

Whew!

All right.

The second home cook
that has made it

into the top three,

they cooked a style of cuisine

they weren't
really comfortable with.

Rather than getting flustered,

they were able to refine it

and pull out a lot of flavor,

and that person is...

Monti.

I'm in the top three
for a mystery box, first time.

Bam!

Why don't you walk me

through
whose ingredients you had

and what they were?

I'm sorry.
I'm a little overwhelmed.

I had Christine's ingredients,

and it's called tom kha.

I have never made it before,

but I had saw the coconut milk
that she had

and the lemon grass
and chicken thighs,

and then I kept adding
coconut milk

and trying
to get the right balance.

Tom kha doesn't have, you know,
potato or carrot.

So it's
a little nontraditional.

Delicious
and extremely flavorful.

Thank you.

Good job.

You've never been to Thailand?

No, sir.

Where have you traveled?

I was born and raised
in Puerto Rico,

and I've been to the states,

and I went to Aruba once.

[Laughs]

So it's delicious.
[Giggles]

Yeah, I love it.
It's fragrant.

The chicken thigh is buttery.

Rich, delicious,
and it's just--yeah.

It's wholesome.

Great job.

Thank you so much.
Well done.

Thank you.

[Applause]

Okay. We're only tasting
one more dish.

This home cook cooked their dish
to perfection,

beautifully plated as usual.

Christine.

Yay.

Please join us.
[Applause]

Hello, Christine.

Whose box did you get?

(Christine)
Um, I got Becky's box.

I seared the chicken and put it
in the oven,

roasted that with some butter,
and made roasted beet salad

with goat cheese
and sauteed mushrooms.

You didn't have a plan.

You kind of evolved the dish
as you went through.

Mm-hmm. So using your
greatest resource,

your palate, you let it
guide you to a finished dish.

If it leads you
to results like this,

I think you're in
a really good place.

Thank you.
Congratulations, good job.

Thank you so much, chef.

Just tasting the mushroom

and the beet root together
is magical.

Adding the chicken
and the sauce,

everything on that plate
is like a symphony.

Thank you.

You know, it is what it is.

I don't know what she made.

Good for her,
but they're my ingredients,

so I'm like,
"you're welcome."

Totally different styles.
Yeah, you have Asian, South.

(Gordon) Okay.

There was one dish
that stood out.

I haven't won
any mystery boxes.

Only been in the top three
one time,

and I feel
like today is my day.

This individual never stopped
adapting and working

across the 60 minutes
and rose to the challenge.

Being in top three,
I have one in three chances.

I'm hoping that it's my turn to
win the mystery box challenge.

This person
will have a huge advantage

in the next stage
of this competition.

I never thought
I'd make it this far.

I want this advantage.
I need it.

It can get me into the top four.

Congratulations goes to...

(Gordon)
Christine, monti, and Josh.

There was one dish
that stood out.

This person
will have a huge advantage

in the next stage
of this competition.

Congratulations goes to...

Josh.

Yes.

Whoo!
Finally won a mystery box.

Man, it took me so many weeks
to finally win one.

And it just gets me
one step closer to pursue

my culinary dreams by opening up
a cooking school.

Are you ready to see
your advantage?

Yes, chef.
Let's go.

Congratulations.
Well done.

I'm so proud of Josh.

You're gonna love this one.

Tonight, you'll get to decide

between three stunning
restaurant dishes

that you and your rivals
will be cooking.

But they're not
just any dishes.

These three dishes were ordered

and eaten by three of the
biggest names on this planet.

The man who created and cooked

every one of them is...

Chef Graham Elliot.

Nice to meet you, Josh.

Nice to meet you too.

They were all conceptualized,

prepared, and eaten

in his michelin-starred
flagship Chicago restaurant.

Nice.

The first dish was ordered
by a billionaire

who's the richest
self-made woman

in the entire world,
Oprah winfrey.

And the dish was...

Sweet corn bisque

with red pepper jam

and a cilantro marshmallow.

Wow.

The second dish was devoured

by a hip-hop legend who has sold
50 million albums worldwide.

Damn.

Jay-Z.

He's got 99 problems,

but this dish ain't one.

Alaskan king crab
with vanilla creme fraiche,

pomegranate, and celery gelee.

Fancy.

I wouldn't expect Jay-Z to eat

a froufrou-looking dish
like that, but it look--

it looks tasty.
And the third dish

was had by a nobel
peace prize winner,

a former senator from
the great state of Illinois.

Yes, the president
of the United States,

Barack Obama.

Wow.

And that dish was
an amazing white tuna sashimi

with avocado mousse, passion
fruit, and crispy plantains.

Listen carefully, no immunity.

You will be cooking
one of these dishes.

So which of these three dishes
would you like to select?

Think very carefully
about this.

I'm gonna have to go
with the sashimi.

So I'm picking the tuna sashimi
eaten by president Obama.

It looks fairly simple,

and I feel like
I could really nail this one.

(Graham)
You're now eating the same dish

I once prepared
for president Obama.

Man, that's good.
That's what he said.

(Gordon) It doesn't stop there.

You get a huge advantage.

We're gonna give you this--

every single ingredient
required

to recreate
Graham's signature dish.

Thank you.

Other contestants
will not get that basket.

Awesome.

All right, in the kitchen
I believe in artistic freedom.

I love the dish,
but, if you think

that you can better it,

it won't hurt my feelings.

Take that.
Off you go.

This is a beautiful dish,

but I'm a ballsy kind of guy,

and I'd like to show them
what I can do.

So I'm adding mango,
because I think

the sweetness of the mango
will help counterbalance

the sourness
of the passion fruit,

and I think it'd help mellow out
the dish a little bit more.

(Gordon) Wow.

(Graham) All right.
Now, we presented Josh

with three of my dishes,

and he picked the one

that all of you
will be cooking today.

The dish that Josh picked

was eaten by

the President of the united
states, Barack Obama.

Shut up.

(Gordon) And that dish was...

(Graham) White tuna
sashimi, avocado mousse,

and crispy plantains.

Wow.

Please, all of you come up
and have a taste.

I'm very nervous going
into these sorts of challenges

where I have to recreate
some sort of dish.

There's four pieces, basically,
so each person can have one.

So, Christine,
if you wanna feel it.

(Christine) You know,
someone can look at a plate

and know what a component is,
but, for me, I can't.

I pretty much have to put
my hands all over the plate,

and even then I have to diagram
out what it looks like.

Barack Obama has good taste.

He does.

It looks very simple,

but it's very complex.

Like, every tiny component

on this plate is there
for a reason.

If you think you can improve

upon it, then, please,
be my guest.

It would be totally stupid
to try to add to Graham's dish.

The dude is, like, amazeballs.

You've all got 30 minutes

to become the next
Graham Elliot.

Remember, at the end of this,

we go from five hungry,

determined competitors
down to four.

Your time starts...

Now.
Nobody run Christine over.

(Monti) We have 30 minutes.

Really?

What happened to 60 minutes?

I think I'm getting a rash.

I'm trying to almost create,
like, this grocery list

of everything that I need
in the pantry, so it's like,

"okay.
I taste passion fruit.

"I have to get passion fruit.

I taste avocado.
I have to get avocado."

Step up.
Step up.

What's the first thing
they should be doing now?

Getting oil on, right away.

For the plantain?
Exactly.

It's like the only cooked item
on the whole plate.

So you wanna get that oil
the right temp

to be able to shave
the plantains, get them crispy.

Do you then start
pureeing the avocado?

(Graham) Exactly.

You start getting that whipped.
You know, avocado,

garlic, shallots, cilantro,
lime juice,

and olive oil just to emulsify.
Pretty simple.

So Christine from taste alone

has been able to basically shop
for everything she needs?

Mm-hmm.
That's remarkable.

Monti has heavy cream
on her station.

I don't know
if she understands that

that avocado's fat and rich

on its own, that you don't
need to add those things.

Oh, dear.

Ten minutes gone.

Just 20 minutes to go.

Josh, you had all the aces
in your hand,

everything you need,

and you added some more stuff,
I can see.

Oh, I'm just adding a little bit
of mango

to the top to go
with the passion fruit.

You are?
Yes.

I just want to use
some of their sweetness

to cut the sourness
of the passion fruit.

So you're trying to improve
Graham's dish?

I think this will
definitely improve it.

That's pretty bold.

I think a lot of people in here

are just gonna try
to recreate it.

And I think I'm the only one

confident enough to try
to make it better.

All right, Josh.
Good luck.

I basically have to nail this.

It would be ridiculous
if I went home

after all the different
advantages that I got.

(Announcer)
In this elimination challenge,

Josh has chosen
one of chef Graham Elliot's

signature dishes
for everyone to recreate.

What are you doing
with the mango?

I just wanted to use
some of their sweetness

to cut the sourness
of the--of the passion fruit.

So you're trying to improve
Graham's dish?

I think this will
definitely improve it.

That's pretty bold.

Good luck.
No problem.

(Gordon) You're coming
up to 15 minutes gone.

15 minutes to go, guys.
Come on, speed up.

All of you.
What does the oil look like?

'Cause it smells
like it's gonna burn.

(Monti) I've never worked
with cocoa nibs before.

I'm just gonna see what they do

with a little heat.

Becky, how are you feeling?
I'm nervous.

Somebody's going home.

And it gets
really difficult now,

because the competition
is intensifying.

Yeah.

Who would you like to leave
the competition now?

I think Frank
is my biggest competition,

so I want Frank
to go home today.

Good luck.
Thank you.

Frank, time's running out.
Yes, sir.

What's your approach?

Are you gonna try to improve
Graham's

or just try to imitate it?

I'm not gonna try to improve

on a dish from Graham Elliot.

Who do you think goes home
today?

I'm thinking somebody who tries

to overcomplicate and thinks

that they can improve
on his dish

and puts flavors
that don't really go

with his concept on this dish.

Good luck.

That's a golden color?
Yeah.

Okay.
Let's put in the rest.

Okay, Christine,
how are you feeling?

Hi, chef.
I feel okay.

I feel confident.
Yeah, I think I've been able

to figure out
what all the flavors are.

Clearly, you couldn't
see the dish... No!

But obviously you could
identify the flavors.

What was the first thing
that popped out?

What was the big--

I think the cocoa beans.
Yeah?

It's intimidating
going into this challenge

with these disadvantages
of only being able

to taste the dish
and sort of feel around

for how it was plated.

I think if I miss one element

or cut the fish
too thick or too thin,

that could be
what's sending me home.

Okay.

It's too thick.

I'm, like, crying on the inside
watching monti here.

She had a humungous chunk,

and she's using, like,
a vegetable knife

to just hack through it.
Yeah.

It's so thick.
[Bleep].

I cannotieve the state
of Josh's fish.

I mean, he's almost, like,

sort of almost pureeing it,
butchering it.

He's slicing through it
with a small filleting knife.

(Joe) They thought it was easy

to slice the fish that thin,

and it's not that easy.

Who knew that knife skills

could make the difference
in a challenge like this?

[Groans]

I think that Becky, as
a technical food photographer,

will have a big advantage

in replicating the aesthetics
of the dish.

Even though it seems
like a very simple dish,

there is
so much precision involved

that you really wanna make sure
it's plated beautifully.

And that's what I'm
most concerned about.

We're coming up to three minutes
to go.

[Bleep].
All the way over here.

(Gordon)
You have got to start plating.

(Graham)
Come on, guys, pull it off!

Smear it across.

Monti, you have got
to start plating.

Yes, sir.
Please.

She hasn't even fried
the plantain yet.

(Joe) Oh, my God.

(Gordon) Why would you not
have the plantain fried?

I mean, right now,
danger zone--

Josh and monti.

Focus Josh, focus.

(Graham) Make yours stand
out, guys, for this plating.

[Bleep].

I think I got it.

As long as it's pretty.

(Joe) Josh is adding mango.

(Gordon) Does that dish
really need mango?

I didn't think so.

I don't think Obama

thought it needed
anything else.

No, no.
Did he?

We coming up
to 60 seconds to go.

Come on, you've got to start
finishing off Graham's dish.

Let's go.

Come on, Becky.

Where is she going?

[Bleep].

(Gordon) 20 seconds to go.

You got to speed up.

(Graham) Come on, guys.

Ten, nine, eight, seven, six,

five, four, three,

two, one,

stop.
Hands up.

Hands in the air.

Did you manage to replicate
Graham's dish?

Maybe.

Maybe?
Is that it?

Right now, I'm not as confident

as I want to be,

but I think I'm the only one
ballsy enough

to try to add to it
and try to improve it.

And I think
Graham is gonna appreciate it.

Let's start with Christine,

please, thank you.

(Cindy)
Get ready for two steps.

Okay, ready?
One, two. Okay.

(Gordon)
Wow, visually--Joe, Graham,

can you have a look
at that, please?

I mean...

Yeah, it's looks like the one
that was up here.

Extraordinary.

(Graham) The fish is beautiful.

It's cut perfectly.

You've got the right amount
of passion fruit.

How do you do this?

(Christine)
It takes a lot of memory.

Obviously, I have to use that
instead of my vision.

So it's about using all the
other senses and just focusing.

All the components together are
harmonized, and it's delicious.

I'm super proud of you...
Thank you.

Being able to do this
at this level, and good job.

Thank you.
Thank you so much, chef.

I've doubted you before.

And then I thought that you
and I have something in common.

When I taste wine, which is not
so visual, I see things.

And I had to think
these food flavors

must have the same
impact on you.

So when you taste the dish,

images must come up
in your mind.

And then be able to put them
back in the plates,

to reinterpret
that mental imagery,

well, that's a pretty amazing
talent to be able to do that.

I basically just tasted
each element separately

and then together and asked
about the color

and thought about what it was.

You continue to impress
and amaze us.

That is a great dish.

Congratulations.

Thank you so much, sir.

You absolutely nail it

from the position of the avocado
puree, the passion fruit

drizzled on the exact same area
that Graham did.

Am I being punk'd?

No. I wish.

It's delicious.
Thank you.

Yeah.
I am--

for the first time
in this competition,

to be honest, Christine...

I'm lost for words.

Great job.
Thank you.

For the first time
in this competition,

to be honest, Christine,

I'm lost for words.

Great job.
Thank you.

[Applause]

Next person up, monti.
Please step forward.

How we doing?
Good.

I was trying to replicate,

and I think I fell far short
from what you put on a plate.

Visually, it's lacking.

It's not stunning
and fresh looking.

The fish
looks almost 50% larger.

My hands were shaking,

and I was trying to slice
with one stroke,

and I destroyed it.

What else do you have
in the avocado mousse?

Sea salt, heavy cream,
avocado, and lime...

That cream just completely
washes away that natural flavor.

And to put those together,

it doesn't make sense
with the dish.

This definitely isn't
your best performance.

There's no seasoning,
plantain way too thick.

Watching you prep that
white tuna was embarrassing.

I think of your strengths
in this competition--

the way you cook on a budget,
the way you think on your feet.

But I think, for the first time

in this competition,

the white tuna

is out of your league.

Yes, sir.

It's pretty far off from
the dish we saw up here before.

I know.

Hmm.

You've missed the whole spirit
of the dish, you know,

the balance
between the sweetness

of the fish and the acidity
of the passion fruit

and the richness
of the avocado puree.

You might have missed
the top four as well.

Now that I've discovered
my passion,

I have
the strongest motivation.

That's why I'm fighting.
I'm fighting for this.

Next up, Frank, please.

(Graham)
How are we doing, Frank?

Doing pretty good.

Hope I came close.

This is awesome.

I think
it's a perfect rendition.

It's extremely well balanced.

The passion fruit,

the cocoa nib adds the texture.

Good job.
Thanks.

(Gordon) Becky, let's go.

With the fish, I tried to slice
it as thinly as possible.

Then I added a little bit
of sugar to the passion fruit

because I thought
it was a bit acidic.

Becky, that is a poor delivery.

Way too much passion fruit.

I truly did try
to pay attention

to the details, and it was
extremely difficult for me.

I'm gonna tell you something
really honestly.

I think you're heading
downwards.

And that dish visually
didn't have the impact

that Graham's had.

And I respect so much

that precision
that he has because--

you've done it
in this competition so far

on so many occasions.

On this occasion, you haven't.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I feel like people pigeonhole me
for some reason.

And it's annoying.

It's like people
expect more of me.

So then, God forbid,
I don't do something perfect--

every single time,
I get reamed for it.

(Graham) All right.

Last, the one with the advantage
going into this challenge.

Josh.

You had the cart full of
ingredients prepared for you.

(Josh) Yes.

(Graham)
Right? Why the mango?

I thought the passion fruit
was a little sour.

So I thought
the sweetness of the mango

would help counterbalance
that sourness.

I personally don't think
it needs sweetness.

Now why did you go
with five pieces?

They're kind of inconsistent.

You know, I'm just--
I'm just looking,

and, like, if you and I
went out to dinner,

and you were given that,
and I was given that,

I'd be flipping out.

Yeah.
'Cause I like food.

It looks
like you had 10 minutes

to make it instead of 30.

This is way beneath
what I expect from you.

Josh, with the advantage
that you had,

I would expect nothing
but a perfectly replicated dish.

This is the final five
of masterchef.

Did you use any salt?

Yes.
Where?

On the fish
and in the avocado mousse.

This is misfired
on all elements.

The fish,
why would you struggle

slicing that fish
the way you did?

When I started slicing,
it just started tearing apart,

and I couldn't find
the right spot to slice it.

Oh, I'm so pissed off.

And whilst I love
the ballsy attitude

of Josh that wants to improve
Graham Elliot's dish--

but, young man,
you've got to learn to walk

before you can run.

Graham's dish
was perfectly balanced.

What the [Bleep]
would you wanna change it for?

I just hope you haven't blown
that advantage, Josh,

because it'd be
a tragedy right now.

(Monti)
Josh had an insane advantage

and didn't utilize it.

(Announcer) The remaining five home
cooks' dishes have all been tasted.

The judges must now decide

who will be leaving
the masterchef kitchen forever.

All of you,

Joe, Graham, and myself,

we need some time,

because this is
a very difficult decision.

Crazy challenge, bro.

It's okay.
Don't cry, okay?

I don't think your reviews
were as bad as Josh's.

Monti's white tuna
was way too thick.

Yeah.
And then Josh--

why do we constantly see people

that we're giving advantages
throw 'em away?

(Becky) I had a really
bad day, you know.

I struggled.
I just had a bad day.

What was Becky doing?

You can't go up there and always
get good compliments.

It just kills me when they,
like, build me up

and tell me
that I'm, like, [Bleep] Up.

Each and every decision
we make from now on in

just gets harder and harder.

There was
one standout dish tonight

that they managed to perfect it,
which was a joy.

Congratulations...

Christine.

Incredible.
Thank you.

Absolutely incredible.

It would've been easily able
to be served

to the president himself.

It was a great dish.
Oh, my gosh.

But, you know, this is
an elimination challenge.

The top five is about to
become the top four.

The first person
in the bottom three,

please come down...

Monti.

I think that monti
has a lot of passion,

but, at the end of the day,
I don't think

she has quite
the level of refinement

that is gonna be needed
to win this competition.

The next person that we need
to see down here

let themselves down,

and let us down.

We're really surprised.

Becky, come on down.

I'm thinking in my head like,

"wow, what's happening
to Becky?"

She was such a strong player
in this entire competition,

and now it seems like she's just
going into a downward spiral.

And the final person
we need down here

threw away a big advantage.

Josh.

(Frank) Now, I'm like,
all right, Josh,

the judges say it
numerous times, like,

you took your advantage,
and you threw it away.

And, based on those reviews,

he could definitely be the one
to go home today.

Becky, step forward, please.

You've raised our expectations,

but then,
in the last two challenges,

it's been very disappointing.

(Becky) It's a
disappointment to myself.

And I just--I had a misstep
today.

You've gone from up there
to down here

standing in front of us.

And now...

You're going back
to your bench.

Fortunately for you,

there are two worse dishes
than yours.

Thank you, judges.
Thank you so much.

Josh, you've been on
a journey and a half.

It's been up, it's been down,

it's been incredible.

You came back into this
competition with a force.

But are you about
to lose it again?

No, I'm not, chef.

Is the competition too fierce?

Are you out of your depth now?
No, chef.

Today I just stumbled
on this challenge.

It will never happen again.

I'm more focused than ever,
trust me.

Monti...

The journey for you

in masterchef
has been extraordinary.

You've proved everybody wrong,

including yourself,

to how far you can come
in this competition.

When I got here,
I definitely didn't have

any self-confidence
in my skills.

I think I've grown in--by leaps
and bounds with my cooking.

Monti, you have big ambitions,

and you'd love a food truck,

and you have a dream of you and
your son having a great future.

For now, your future...

Is with him at home.

I'm sorry.

Your time is done
in masterchef.

Josh, back to your station.

Best of luck.
Thank you, honey.

Monti...

You have got to keep
your head up high.

What you stand for currently
in this country

and in this competition,
you have just given

so many single parents
out there

a huge amount of inspiration.

Thank you so much.

Monti, it's been a pleasure
to take the journey with you.

I went from being
a nonbeliever,

but I am a converted man,

because tang this trip with you

has been an emotional experience
for me too.

The tears are real.

Your journey's real.

And your future is oh, so real.

When I got here, I felt
I was a broken person,

and, because of
the three of you,

I have discovered
my self-confidence again.

And I--there's no way
I could ever repay you

and thank you enough.

(Gordon) Follow that dream.

Trust me, you're gorgeous,

you're talented, and you have
an amazing young man at home.

Yeah.

Come say good-bye,
my darling.

Well done.

Thank you, guys, so much.

Well done.
Thank you.

(Gordon) My goodness.

Good job.
Thank you so much.

Good luck with everything.
Incredible.

Come here.
Yes, sir.

One, two, three, four left.

The big question is,
who is gonna win masterchef?

She's an inspiration to me
every single day.

I think Christine is gonna
take this whole thing.

(Gordon) Wow.

Thank you, guys.
Take care, my darling.

I would not trade this
experience for anything.

It has been the most amazing
thing that ever happened to me.

I got to cook
in a michelin star kitchen.

Whoo!

I got to meet Paula Deen.

You have been
such an inspiration to me.

I learned that I do have
a beautiful talent.

You are not a fluke,
my darling.

Well done.

(Monti) All you have to do
is put yourself out there

and allow yourself
to have an experience.

You know, I just got divorced.

So I think it's still, like,
messing with me.

Well, he's missing
some great cooking.

Thank you.

This has changed my entire life.

And I know that this is
just the beginning

in my culinary journey.

Bye, guys.

Christine, Becky,
Josh, and Frank.

Congratulations.
You're the final four.

Thank you!

(Gordon) Unbelievable.

I think that this
is the four best cooks,

and I think that we're
in this position for a reason.

They're tough competition, but I
just have to keep telling myself

that I want it more
and that I will do anything

to get this masterchef title.

Good night.
Well done.

Good job, guys.

Damn.

(Announcer)
Next week on masterchef...

You'll face
your toughest challenge yet.

(Announcer)
Three of the most distinguished

chefs in the world

pay a visit
to the masterchef kitchen.

Wow, wow.

My heart is beating
out of my chest right now.

(Announcer)
It's the ultimate battle,

as the home cooks compete
for a spot in the semifinals.

We may have given them
a challenge that's not doable.

(Josh) I feel like I'm
about to pass out.

I mean, I never felt
this way before in my life.

(Announcer) And one more
masterchef dream will end.
