Previously on MasterChef...

The top home cooks
in America

took their place
in the MasterChef kitchen...

This is the kitchen
of your dreams.

And it wasn't long
before things got heated.

You underestimated
the wrong person.

Keep cooking.
Shut your mouth.

Somebody's going home tonight.
Who is it?

Mac and cheese girl
over here.

I have never hated someone
so much.

The elimination tests
saw some disastrous dishes.

It looks like someone pooped
on the plate.

- Mm.
- This was a waste of time.

In the end...

Sorry, your time is done
in MasterChef.

Sasha was the first
MasterChef hopeful eliminated.

- Tonight...
- Go!

It's the first team challenge
of the season...

They're children,
not animals.

As the home cooks face
their toughest critics yet.

My mom cooks better.

Guys, I need help.

Start putting
some meatballs on

or you're never gonna
have it done.

I'm seriously
about to lose it.

And then a pressure test
turns ugly fast.

That was a bitch move.

Who will see their culinary
dream come to an end?

One of you
is going home.

It all happens right now
on MasterChef.

It's an early start

for our 18 remaining home cooks
who are about to face

their first MasterChef
team challenge.

I'm on a bus headed
to I assume a school

because buses
usually go to schools.

If we were to go back
to high school, I was a tomboy.

Bri would be,
like, the quiet one.

Eddie would be
the athlete.

Howard would probably be
one of the cool guys.

James would be
kind of the oddball.

and Krissi would be
the loudmouth.

I had more enemies
than friends

'cause I never kept
my mouth shut.

Our bus arrives
at emperor elementary school.

As the students
begin their morning studies...

The best home cooks
in America

are about to get a lesson
of their own.

All right, guys.

18 home cooks on time
and ready for class.

Let's go, guys.
Come on.

Good morning!

Morning, chef!

Welcome to your very first
MasterChef team challenge.

In a couple of hours
from now,

you will be cooking

for the most picky eaters
on the planet.

Your challenge today
is to provide

a healthy,
nutritious lunch

to over 300 elementary
school children.

I have never in my life
cooked for large masses,

let alone 301 kids.

So I'm in
for a roller coaster today.

Each team is responsible

for one entree
and a dessert.

You'll have just 1 hour
and 45 minutes

to prepare
and cook your lunch dishes,

and then 90 minutes

to serve each
and every child here

a delicious, healthy,
nutritious meal.

One they'll actually
want to eat,

because they're
the judges today.

The losing team
will of course face,

their very first
pressure test

where at least
one of you

will be expelled
from MasterChef for good.

- Understood?
- Yes, chef.

Jessie and Jordan,
you had the best two dishes

in the last
elimination test.

You will be
today's team captains.

Please go stand here
next to Gordon.

I rarely cook
for kids.

I have one niece
and two nephews,

so I'm gonna pick some people
that I know

are gonna be a good asset
for my team,

especially when it comes
to feeding kids.

Jessie, since you had the best
dish in the elimination test,

you have the huge advantage

of first round draft pick.

I think I want to go
with Lynn.

- Yeah! First.
- Wow.

I pick Lynn
to be on my team first,

because he can
plate things impeccably.

So he will oversee
the final product.

Lynn, how are
you feeling?

It's always a great feeling
to get picked first.

That's who I was
gonna pick.

He's a multitalented individual,
when it comes to the kitchen.

Jordan.

This person, the experience
they have working hand-in-hand

with children is gonna be
quite a benefit.

I'm gonna pick Savannah.

Savannah, wow.

That was
my second choice.

I did want Savannah
because she's a schoolteacher.

Who better
to have on your team?

- I'm gonna go with Bethy.
- Bethy.

I'm gonna go with James.

Thank you, sir.

I'm goin' with Beth.

My next apron
is gonna go to somebody

that has a great grasp
on the nutrition aspect.

- Eddie.
- Let's go, Eddie.

- I'm going with Bime.
- Bime, wow.

We winnin'.
You picked the right person.

I'm gonna go with Jonny.

Jonny, welcome
to the blue team.

- Natasha.
- Natasha.

I can stick my foot down
as hard as she can,

and I'm not scared of her,
because I'm gonna

show her authority
and she's gonna listen to me.

So, Krissi, why don't you
walk on over here?

Everybody's scared
of my mouth.

Everybody thinks I'm kinda,
like, gonna take over...

Let's go,
you son of a bitch.

And people don't like that.

Oh, well.

- Come here, Bri.
- Bri, wow.

Adriana.

- Let's go.
- Thank you, Jordan.

You got it.
I'm gonna pick you, Luca.

Interesting.

He has a hard exterior,
but he's got a soft interior.

I'm going with Howard.

Okay, last two.
You're picking both teams.

Could be smart now.

There's Malcolm and Kathy.

I can see
how I can screw Jordan.

I'm gonna pick Malcolm.

Wow, wow, wow.

By taking Malcolm,
he gets stuck with Kathy.

She's the weak link.

Kathy, nobody picked you.
How does that make you feel?

I don't care.

I love being underestimated,

because people don't know
what I'm gonna bring to them.

Like, they'll
wake up eventually.

Gonna kick some ass
for me?

You got it.

I have a few
middle-of-the-roaders.

But everybody here can cook.

so as long
as they listen to me,

I-I think we can succeed.

- Are you ready?
- Yes, chef.

Your 1 hour,
45 minute prep time

starts now.

Let's go.

In this team challenge,

the red and blue teams
must now create a healthy menu

for the elementary
school students.

The meal must contain
a protein, a starch,

a vegetable,
and a fruit.

All right, guys,
veg-wise,

We've got cauliflower,
green beans, corn, brussels.

No green,
no green.

No greens.
Kids hate green.

- Corn.
- Okay, no green.

So corn
is sounding good, right?

I'm depending on my teammates
that know what kids like.

They all said their kids
don't touch greenery,

so we wanted corn.

We didn't want green beans
and broccoli.

If we did chicken,
like, teriyaki,

it could be all cooked,

and you have it in the sauce,
so it's hot.

We're cooking for kids.
We're not cooking for us.

Right, we'll make it
super simple, rice and chicken.

All right, go ahead.
Go... Whatever it is.

A fruit dessert.

Let's do strawberries.
Kids like strawberries.

All right.
We know what we want.

Despite some objections,

red team captain Jessie
has decided

to go with chicken teriyaki,
corn,

and a strawberry crumble
for their kids' lunch menu.

While on the blue team,
our home cooks

head in a more
conventional direction.

- Pasta, pasta.
- Yeah, we have pasta.

Why don't we do
turkey meatball?

- We got whole tomatoes?
- Yeah, we got whole tomatoes.

Whole tomatoes.
I'll... I'll make a marinara.

We got green beans.

You think we can make
green beans work?

Definitely, definitely.

- We need some sort of fruit.
- We got apples?

Yeah, we got Granny Smith.

I'll make a apple crisp.

I think
it's straightforward.

Spaghetti and meatball menu
is gonna be awesome for kids.

One, two, three.

Blue team!

Blue team quickly agrees
on their lunch menu:

Turkey meatballs and pasta
with green beans

and an apple crisp
for dessert.

But Gordon
has some concerns.

Well, the execution of this
with 300 kids is just paramount.

How many meatballs
per portion?

We'll probably be right--
right around two.

- If it's gonna be short, we'll...
- Two golf balls.

So two balls?

So that's...
that's literally 600.

- You got it.
- Wow.

- Good luck.
- You got it. Thank you, sir.

Jordan and the blue team picked
meatballs in a marinara sauce.

- Classic.
- Smart.

So kids are gonna see that,
recognize the color.

Beautiful red.

It's something that they've had
numerous times before.

Yeah. So red team's menu.

Jessie's selected
chicken teriyaki.

At that age,
they eat with their eyes.

So you're gonna see
a dark piece of chicken

with a dark sauce on there.

Could be a bit
of a turn-off.

The selection of meatball
versus chicken teriyaki,

there's no doubt in my mind
that I'm going meatballs.

Blue team's menu
may sound better.

But you've got a lot
of prep involved.

- 600 meatballs.
- 600 meatballs they're gonna make?

- 600 meatballs, 2 each.
- Oh, my god.

So right now,
I don't know.

It's neck and neck.

Guys, 50 minutes left!

Less than 1 hour to cook for 300
elementary school students.

Be careful.
Don't over-mix it.

While the blue team continues

to season their meatballs,

the red team has already started
searing their chicken,

but Joe and Graham notice
a serious problem.

Hey, listen, if you keep on

moving that chicken around
so much,

you're gonna basically
just boil it.

You want it to get
some caramelization on it.

You see this much steam?

That's just all water
coming out,

and that's cooking it
all the way around.

So you want less on that grill
and more evenly distributed.

Jessie, do you see
what's going on over here?

On, like, one side, there's,
like, 1,000 pounds of chicken.

Over here, there's a whole
flattop warming a pan of corn.

I've got Malcolm and Lynn
handling the meat.

There's a whole work surface

and all the chicken's
in one pile.

So it's not cooking right.

Jessie, you've got
to take control here

because this is gonna be
boiled chicken.

So the boys acted like they
hadn't cooked chicken before,

which made me really nervous.

As Jessie gets the red team
back on track,

the judges discover an even more
pressing issue on the blue team.

Guys, you just started
making meatballs?

10 more trays like that to get
to 300 meatballs.

20 more to get
to 600 meatballs.

We're gonna be
cuttin' it close.

All the time it's taken us
making all these meatballs

is just [bleep] stupid.

Someone start putting some
meatballs on this flattop

or you're never
gonna have it done.

- Jordan?
- Yeah?

Step it up, get your team
together and step it up now.

Everybody.

With just 30 minutes remaining

until lunch service,
the blue team

led by captain Jordan
is scrambling to prep and cook

over 600 meatballs for 300-plus
elementary school students.

What I'm trying to do
is get your head in the game.

- so there's 50 meatballs.
- Right.

You're still minus 550.

You need
to start diverting,

and someone step up
and take responsibility.

- No way it's gonna work.
- Nowhere near it.

But no one seems
to care about it, so...

We're gonna have to change
our game plan.

What do you wanna do?
What do you wanna do?

It makes me nervous
to change.

However, I know this is
such an easier approach.

You guys,
we're doin' 'em.

Hey, we're just gonna do
a meat sauce.

Don't even... hey, you don't need
to roll 'em anymore.

No more rolling.
We're done rolling.

- All right.
- Just chop it up.

While the blue team rushes

to turn their meatballs
into meat sauce,

the red team is struggling
with the seasoning

for their chicken teriyaki.

Have you tasted it, Jessie?
The teriyaki sauce?

I did, it's too salty,
and they're working on it,

and they're thickening it.

That's it?

Why is it so watery?

Because we had to add more water,
'cause it was too salty.

But surely you put fruit in
there for kids like pineapple,

or, you know, some ketchup
in there, or something.

We could.
We could.

It's for kids, right?

It's not... it's not
adult teriyaki, right?

So I'm just trying to make it
a little bit more sweeter, yeah.

Pineapple would probably
go good.

I'll go look to see
if we have that.

Jessie, just taste that.

There's no season
in anything.

They're children,
not animals.

No, but this
is not seasoned yet.

We're gonna season it when we
mix it with the kettle.

Why wouldn't they put
the vegetables in the beginning

so the veg and the rice
cook at the same time?

Cooking vegetables separate?
Adding them to rice?

I mean, this is insane.

With not long to go
before lunch service,

Gordon checks in on
the elementary school students

to assess
their food preferences.

Will they favor the blue team's
pasta and meat sauce

or the red team's
chicken teriyaki?

So I want to ask a few questions
about the food.

Who likes turkey?

Hmm.

Who likes spaghetti?

- Oh, yeah!
- Oh.

- Who likes chicken?
- Yeah.

Here we go.
Who likes chicken teriyaki?

No.

- I never tried it.
- Oh, dear.

- I need more sauce.
- Okay, it's right here.

- Yeah, it's good, right?
- Hey, we're good.

I think it's good.

I think we were able
to fix the teriyaki sauce,

after, you know,
adding ten extra ingredients,

and thickening it up,
and I finally feel

like we have
a really good sauce.

With under five minutes
to go before service,

red team has started plating...

Come on, we need more rice.
We need more rice.

While the blue team

hasn't finished
one of their sides.

James, I need that salad
up here asap.

We need to start plating it.

I've got a pot
full of green beans.

It's not boiling.
These kids are gonna be here.

It's just not getting hot.

Like, I don't know
what to do.

Red team, blue team,
one minute to go.

Bean salad!
I need it asap!

25 seconds.

They're barely cooked,
but hey,

we got to serve
the green beans anyway,

regardless of how cooked
they are.

Give it to me. Go.

Ten, nine,

eight, seven,

six, five,

four, three,

two, one,

Let's go.

There come the kids.
Come on, guys!

The kids are comin'!

Oh, my god.
They are so loud.

Holy [bleep].

I look up,
and I see a sea of kids.

And I'm, like, "oh, gosh,
this is gonna be painful."

These kids are coming
like a flood right now, man,

like a tsunami.

This is my nightmare.
This is the day I die.

Boys and girls,
are you hungry?

Yeah!

- Let's go, guys.
- Hi, buddy!

Oh, my god,
look at how cute you are!

The teams now have
just 1 hour

to serve lunch to 301 picky
elementary school children.

The students will taste
both teams' dishes

and then vote
for their favorite.

You are so cute!
I need more plates.

I need more plates.

The blue team
is serving pasta and meat sauce

with green beans
and an apple crisp.

- There you go.
- Thank you.

You're welcome, sir.

The red team is serving
chicken teriyaki

and rice with corn
and a strawberry crumble.

I need some plates, please!

I don't know
what they were doing behind me.

Just give me plates.
What is the problem?

I need plates!

Krissi's got nothing to serve.
No coordination.

No one knows
what they're doing.

Come on, Jordan.
Take control, man.

Jordan is
pretty much frazzled.

We're all just trying to move
as quick as possible

to put everything on the plate
for these kids.

Let me just give you
some ice cream, okay?

Oh, my god.
Guys, I need help.

As both teams fight to keep up
with the endless lunch line,

Joe heads out
to the students

to see whose food
is getting the best grades.

Did you get
to try both food

of the red team
and the blue team?

- What did you like better?
- I like the blue team better.

You like
the blue team better?

Vote blue team!
Vote blue team!

- Who are you gonna vote for?
- Red.

- Red?
- There you are.

I really don't like
the blue team's green beans.

They're hard.

I know.
They're not cooked.

The blue team's green beans
bent my fork.

You like red better?
Why?

Chicken is
like barbecue chicken.

It's like barbecue.
so it's a little sweet?

- Yeah.
- You like that?

I got a lot of really good
feedback on the chicken,

which is surprising for me
because I thought

it would be more...
more salty.

And instead, they made it
sweet, which was smart.

And then there's people who just
love pasta,

and they're going
for the pasta.

- Oh, really?
- Yeah.

So it's either one
or the other.

It's really a toss-up.

Gotta hit me faster.

It's more than halfway
through service,

and while the blue team's start
was unsteady,

they have managed
to keep up the pace...

- Come on, guys.
- Come on!

But on the red team,

service is beginning
to fall apart.

Come on, we need just rice
on a plate.

Rice on a plate, that's all
that matters right now, Bethy.

The kids
just never quit coming.

I don't know
where they're coming from,

but they're just comin' in
like a herd of sheep.

Dessert behind.
I'm a dessert behind.

I'm a dessert...
I'm two desserts behind.

Three desserts behind.

The kids come faster
than we're ready for them.

and I see empty plates.

and I'm furious
because these empty plates

Mean they can't
vote for us.

We need hands now!

Jessie!

Get organized here, guys.

What team do you love?

Blue!

Yeah!

It's the final moments

of the first
MasterChef team challenge.

Not only do our home cooks
have 301 mouths to feed,

but they have
to ensure the kids

get high-quality food
on every plate.

- Thank you.
- You are very welcome.

While the blue team
led by captain Jordan

has successfully served lunch
to all their students,

the red team
led by captain Jessie

has missed several plates.

I don't want
any more plates missed, fellas.

Every plate has to have
food on it

or it doesn't
get counted.

If those kids
don't have our plate,

that's kids
not trying our food.

That's losing votes,
basically.

So, red team, I don't think
the teriyaki was the right move.

However, it...
it's pretty decent.

But their dessert
is outstanding.

- What do you think?
- It's hard.

It's really hard
because I would choose the pasta

over the rice
and chicken teriyaki.

However, the veggies...
the corn over on red

I think totally smokes
the blue.

I thought the chicken
was a bit of a risk.

They executed it.
They fixed it.

It was too salty.
They made it sweet.

I'm all for the red team
on this challenge.

Although the judges favor
the red team's menu,

it will be
the children's votes

that will determine
the winner.

Who liked
the red team's dish?

One, two.
Who liked the blue team's dish?

Uh-oh, blue's a big winner
on this table.

Red team, blue team, your last
child is coming through.

Here you go.

Enjoy.

Vote blue team, buddy.
All right!

Ho...

Oh!

Red team, blue team,

Well done.
Congratulations.

Hey, you guys, I saw a lot
of full red plates.

I'm feeling good.
I'm happy.

We served every kid

and I think we came out
and did what we wanted to do.

Boys and girls,
please gather around

by the side of the bus.

It's, like, impossible to call.

I can't tell if, like,
we slaughtered it

or if we bombed it
because our fate's

in their little,
tiny, creepy hands.

Let's go, guys.

The students gather to vote
for their favorite team.

Will they choose blue team's
pasta and meat sauce menu

or the red team's
chicken teriyaki and rice?

Boys and girls, you are now
the MasterChef judges.

On the count of three,

I'm gonna ask you to run
into the square

that cooked your favorite food
for lunch.

Was it the red team
or the blue team?

Come on.
Come on.

Whoo!

Come on over!

Are you all ready to vote?

On the count of three.

One,

two,

three!

Come on, come on,
come on!

Come on, guys!

Yeah, over here!

Red team!
Red team!

Whoo!

Stay where you are.

We're gonna have
to take a count.

I'm feeling
a little nervous.

I can't tell
who has more kids on their side

and that's scary.

When I look over to the side,
I'm like, "oh, my god."

There's just the same amount
or maybe more on their side.

Now, the nerves are starting
to kick in, man.

It's just, like,
this could be anybody's game.

Okay, boys and girls,

We have the official verdict.

One team scored

58% of the votes

and the other team
scored 42%.

The winning team...

Is...

Red team!

Whoo!
Thank you!

This has been, like,
the best week ever for me.

I got to be team captain.

We had a great team.
Everyone performed so well,

and we won.

- Yeah!
- Yeah! Oh, my god.

Yeah!

Blue team, you now face
the pressure test

where minimum one of you

will be leaving
the MasterChef competition.

Red team wins.

We know now we have to go
into a pressure test

and I'm super pissed off.

Somebody's gonna go home
on this, so the pressure's on.

[bleep] this.

Seriously, [bleep] this.

I'm not surprised
that we lost.

Jordan frazzled everybody.

and it was just...
it was a [bleep] show,

a complete [bleep] show
from start to finish.

I'm... I'm seriously
about to lose my [bleep].

The winners, this way.

Ooh, pressure test.

One of us is outta here.

You.

It's definitely
not gonna be me.

The majority of my team
is definitely disappointed.

We're all
against each other again.

I'd like to chop
somebody's head off

for going
into this pressure test.

No names.

Wrong captain.

If there's one person

to blame for this loss,
it's Jordan.

It was just bad leadership.

I came into this competition
to win

and whatever
this pressure test is,

I'm gonna do
whatever it takes to win.

Yesterday, you competed
in your first team challenge,

feeding
300 elementary school kids.

The red team, led by Jessie,
are safe.

None of you
will be facing

this extraordinary
pressure test.

- Great job.
- Thank you so much.

Unfortunately, Jordan,

you and your team failed
to make the grade.

Therefore, you are
about to face

a dreaded pressure test,

where at least one of you

will be going home.

Jordan, what do
you think happened?

I think our inexperience
serving large crowds

surfaced its ugly head

and we had to think
on our feet.

We ended up
changing it up.

And I know that screwed us
in the end.

We or you?

Because certain people
were delivering throughout,

like Krissi and her vision
on the sauce.

Howard made
almost 200 meatballs

and then there was
everyone else,

who was looking
for your direction.

Listen carefully.

Here's the good news.

There are nine home cooks
in front of us,

but just six of you

will compete
in this pressure test.

Damn.

And the person
who will choose

who is safe...

Is...

Listen carefully.

Here's the good news.

There are nine home cooks
in front of us,

but just six of you

will compete
in this pressure test.

Damn.

And the person
who will choose

who is safe...

Is...

Is you, Jordan,

- The team captain.
- Oh!

Who do you honestly think

did well enough

to be saved
from tonight's pressure test?

The first name is someone

that executed well
yesterday.

But it's also somebody
that I think

I can beat farther on
down the road.

I'm gonna save Howard.

Howard.
Well done.

Head upstairs
to the gallery.

Thank you.

Jordan absolutely made
the best decision

by saving me because,
yeah, I made a few mistakes

in the kitchen,
but, like, I'm a badass

when it comes to, like, making
sure that mission is completed.

As your second choice,

who are you saving
from elimination?

This is somebody that helped me
out a lot yesterday.

It's also somebody I don't want
to face in a pressure test.

I'm gonna save James.

James.

Off you go.

Jordan, you have
one more save left.

But before you make
your choice,

let me
tell you something.

As team captain,

you can choose
to save yourself.

Oh.

I think when it comes down
to it, this is a competition,

so I'm gonna take it
for myself.

Please go upstairs.

Krissi, give me
your insight.

Listen, honor is honor.
That was a bitch move.

In my neighborhood,
that'd get your ass kicked.

Captain goes down
with the ship.

I think it's stupid
to not save yourself.

You're gonna
"go down with your ship"?

Well, I'm not a [bleep] captain
of a ship.

I'm a captain of a team
that is no longer a team.

Okay.

Are you ready
to find out

the dish that will determine
your MasterChef future?

Cheesecake.

I've never made cheesecake.

I don't even
like cheesecake.

I've baked enough cheesecakes
that I'm feeling good.

So I think I'm the safest
at this point.

Let's be honest.

That is
a true American classic.

The perfect balance
between flavor and texture.

Absolutely unique,

but one mistake
with your techniques,

and the whole thing
can become a total disaster.

Please head
to your stations.

At your stations, you all have
identical ingredients.

There's also a limited pantry
in case you want

your cheesecake to stand out
from the pack.

You have
just 90 minutes

to prepare, bake,
chill, and garnish

one amazing cheesecake that
will save you from elimination.

Your 90 minutes starts...

Now.
Good luck.

Who do you think's gonna shine?
Who's gonna fall?

I'm expecting a lot
from Krissi and Savannah.

Experienced bakers.
Kathy, I'm not sure about.

I think Jonny
is out of his depth.

I'm afraid that Eddie
does not have

the technical skills
to execute this cake.

- Medic.
- Adriana's already cut herself.

How can you cut yourself
making a cheesecake?

Making a cheesecake?

So the secret behind a great
cheesecake is in the base.

When your base is solid,
your mixture's solid.

First of all,
start the base,

get the base into the fridge,
set it.

Sugar, eggs, whisk

and then
lightly break down

the cheese
and incorporate that.

What do you think that they're
gonna have 'em in the oven for?

40 minutes?
45 minutes?

Yeah, 45,
45, 50 minutes.

But if you take that out
one minute too early,

it's gonna sink
with a huge,

almost like a massive hole
in the middle.

So this is all
about that jeopardy.

Right, Kathy.
What are you doing in there?

I'm making
a berry compote.

Waiting for the berries
to burst.

Mm-hmm, in just an hour
from now,

you could be leaving
the competition.

Yeah, you're right.

Cheesecake's in the oven?

Cheesecake's in the oven.

All of you by now
should have

your cheesecakes
in the oven.

Start thinking
about the topping

and how well
the topping blends

with the texture
of your cheesecake.

Savannah, dessert's quite
a strong point for you.

- Mm-hmm.
- Confident?

Definitely, I'm gonna make
a salted caramel cheesecake.

So you're gonna ripple
the actual cheesecake

with a salted caramel?

The caramel's
gonna go on top.

Have you got what it takes
to stay in this competition?

Absolutely.

Adriana.

So I have my cheesecake
in the oven

and here, I have some
guava paste and some mangoes.

- Guava paste?
- Yes.

- You feel confident today?
- I do.

I'm... I don't have much
of a sweet tooth,

but cheesecake is something
I actually love.

Great.

Ladies and gentlemen,
20 minutes to go.

A simple cheesecake

will determine
your MasterChef future.

What the hell?

I'm noticing my oven
is smoking.

Something's burning.
What's burning?

I cannot believe
this just happened.

I'm goin' home.
Like, I'm done.

Like, I'm just gonna go ahead
and pack my bags and go home.

Something's burning.
What's burning?

What the hell?

I got a broke pan
that's dripping out the bottom.

My cheesecake is dripping
from the bottom.

Something's wrong with my pan,
so it's leaking.

I take my cheesecake
out of the oven.

I take aluminum foil
and place it underneath my pan,

and it finally
stops dripping.

If I can get my cheesecake
to start cooking quicker,

Everything will solidify so that
there's nothing to leak out.

Coming up to two minutes
to go.

Come on.

Show some flair.

Oh, badass.

Jonny, I'm worried about.

You know
slices of pineapple

don't sit well
on top of a cheesecake.

- You'll never cut it.
- No.

Kathy... she made
a fruit compote

that looks
like restaurant quality.

Adriana used
canned guava paste.

Guave paste in a cheesecake?
Come on.

Here we are.

Enhance
those finishing touches.

Five, four,

three, two,

one, and stop, guys.

Well done.

Now, it's time to taste

Those amazing-looking
cheesecakes

and find out
who has just cooked

their last dish.

Let's start off
with Krissi.

Let's go, please.

Yeah, I see Krissi's dish

and I think her plating's
like her... clunky.

- Oh, Krissi.
- My cheesecake fell.

It's not the most
beautiful cake.

No.

And what is...
what are these round things?

Those are...
those are raspberry bombs.

That's a good-looking
cheesecake.

You see, had this stayed up
another inch,

We would have had
the perfect specimen.

This cheesecake has a lightness
and a restraint to it.

It's beautiful.
The crust is nice and thin.

This is very fluffy,
light, flavorful,

Delicious.

You keep giving me food
that I'm used to eating at home.

Thank you.

Very rich.
Very creamy.

The raspberry,
it's not cloying and heavy.

It just provides
a nice, little pop of acidity.

- Thank you.
- Great job.

Now that's as good
as it gets.

You've got the base
exactly the way it should be.

Look at the shiny texture
of the filling.

It's got class.
I mean, real class.

You're a force
to be reckoned with,

because it tastes
absolutely sublime.

- Thank you.
- Good job.

Thank you.

Listen, if you're not
scared of me,

you should be
'cause I can cook.

Jonny, please bring
your cheesecake forward.

it's a pineapple foster topping
with a toasted coconut

and a raspberry blood orange
whipped cream.

So for me,
as a New Yorker,

when I want a cheesecake,

I want a cheesecake
that's thick.

You're a man
of adventurous flavors,

But this is like a lumberjack
trying to do a pirouette.

It's all crust.

The cheesecake part of the
cheesecake has a good flavor.

The pineapples
don't really make sense.

They're very fibrous.

They kind of contrast
the texture, which I don't like.

You might have missed

the spirit
of this cheesecake.

Okay, Kathy.
Let's go, please.

Uh, just a regular cheesecake.

On the top, I did a blueberry,
blackberry compote.

The topping's great.

What really makes that
cheesecake sing is the lemon.

Overall, a cheesecake
that asks you

to come back
and try some more.

Thank you.

Eddie.

it's a vanilla bean cheesecake

with a mixed berry compote
on top.

Huh.

So what's the problem there?

- Did you cook the berries down?
- I cooked them down.

So they're bleeding now.

So before you put that on top
of your cheesecake,

then you need
to drain that.

- Yeah, it's delicious.
- Thank you.

Had you just drained
that fruit first,

for me, that would have been
a ten out of ten.

However, it's a bloody
good effort, let me tell you.

I appreciate it.

All right, Savannah,
please come forward.

You know, Savannah bakes.
That's what Savannah does.

But I'm looking
at Savannah's cheesecake,

and she might be in a little bit
of trouble here.

It's a salted
caramel cheesecake

with a hazelnut almond Brittle

and a honey whipped cream.

So almost half
of that cheesecake is the base.

You almost don't even taste
the actual cheesecake part.

This topping here,
it's like maple candy.

It's poor execution.

The flavor isn't there.

Someone's going home, and you're
in that mix right now.

It seems like
you made this cake

to try and help Jonny
stay in the competition.

Try.

Now, honestly,

what do you think
of that cake?

It's too sweet,
and the crust is too thick.

You think this cake
should save your spot

in the MasterChef kitchen?

I know that I didn't execute it,
but I would like to stay.

Unfortunately, we're not here
to make you happy.

We're here to find
the next MasterChef.

Unfortunately, we're not here

We're here to find
the next MasterChef.

Last up,
Adriana, please.

Let's go.

It is a mango
guava cheesecake.

It looks like
a Victoria sponge.

It looks like a tart,
not a cake.

And guava.

I saw a can of...
was it guava paste?

- It was guava paste.
- So it wasn't even fresh fruit?

No.

My big problem
is the guava.

If it was
a process plant

and we're looking
for 10,000 cheesecakes,

I'd use something canned.

But there's something
really weird about canned guava.

What a shame.

The guava,
mango all cooked down,

it doesn't have
that huge tropical flavor.

and the coconut on top
really doesn't add anything

except a little bit of chew
'cause it's un-toasted.

I wanted to do
something different.

I didn't want to go
too homey.

Yeah. I admire that.

I just don't think it went
the way that you wanted.

Okay.

The crust
is like sand.

Secondly, the topping
has no relevance to the cake

and this cake
might have just bought Savannah

another day here
in the MasterChef kitchen.

Okay, all of you,
please step forward.

Tough pressure test.

We asked for one
of the most classic desserts

anywhere in the world:

a stunning cheesecake.

Okay.

Eddie, Krissi, Kathy,
step forward, please.

You three really came up
with a stunning cheesecake.

Thank you, chef.

Congratulations.
You're all safe.

Join to the gallery.
Well done.

Great job.

Jonny, the topping

was nowhere
near MasterChef quality.

The filling...

You nailed.

You're safe.

Frankly, I'm shocked.

I can't believe
I'm still here.

Ladies, that was
a very tough pressure test.

I think it's gonna be Savannah
that's going home,

and it's because Savannah's cake
was even smaller than mine

and the fact that I have
sweetness, tartness

is going to save me.

Here's the sad news.

We've seen great things
from both of you

and this has been
a very, very difficult decision.

I'm honestly thinking
that I'm going home

and I just...
I'm not ready to go home yet.

Adriana...

Your time is done
in MasterChef.

Savannah,

upstairs, please.

You dodged that bullet.

Adriana...

Whilst you grew up
with guava,

using them on top
of a cheesecake,

you have to be
very, very careful.

You should be proud.

You should be super excited

with what you've been
able to do.

I'm definitely proud.

Continue that dream.

I will.

Adriana, thank you.

Please take off
your apron

and leave
the MasterChef kitchen.

- Thank you, guys.
- Thank you.

Good night.

I don't know exactly
where I'm going from here.

I just know that I'm not going
to let this defeat me,

so this is
just the beginning.
