All language subtitles for MasterChef US - S05E12 - Top 10 Compete

Whoo!

Feeding hundreds
of hungry football fans.

The MasterChef flag football
game is about to start.

Go!

Push! Push! Push!
Dig! Dig! Dig!

There will be fumbles
in the kitchen.

Y'all burning stuff!

Why is it so sloppy?

Ugh! My god.

Some home cooks will snap
under pressure.

I need you on the grill!

Which team will
battle the elements...

Come on, come on,
beat the rain! Let's go!

Go the whole 9 yards...

15 seconds to go!

... and claim victory?

Go, christian!
It's what we're all about!

Ladies and gentlemen, this has
been the closest result ever.

40 miles
from the MasterChef kitchen,

it's game time
for the ten remaining home cooks

as they take to the field
of thousand Oaks High School

to kick off
their next team challenge.

Walking on a football field,
man, it brings me back to home.

Brings me back to being under
the Friday night lights again.

It doesn't get
any more American than this.

Stands waiting to be filled
with thousands of cheering fans.

This evening,
there will be a football game

happening right here.

Trust me, this place
is gonna be packed.

You are gonna be split
into two teams of five

that'll have to serve
the concessions

to all of this football game's
adoring fans.

Now, those fans are gonna be
the ones voting

on which one of you two teams
will be the winner.

My family has been selling
concessions

for my entire life.

Perfect challenge for me.

Jaimee and Courtney,
since you two had

the best dishes in the last
elimination challenge,

you are tonight's
team captains.

I'm a very soft-spoken person,

and my biggest concern
is not being able to be loud.

Jaimee, since you had the best
dish in the last elimination,

- you get to pick first.
- Yup.

But the teams
are gonna be picked

in a somewhat
different manner.

Okay.

Instead of you, Jaimee,
picking your own team,

you're gonna be picking
your opponent's team.

Okay!

We don't get to pick
our own teams.

I know she's gonna try
and sink me right off the bat.

- Leslie.
- Leslie.

Courtney, congratulations,
you got Leslie. Wow.

Bad move.

Courtney, please, think about
who you don't want on your team.

I'm going to choose this person
because I really fear

having both of them
on the same team.

- Cutter.
- Cutter.

I'm building Jaimee's team up

of people that I know
cannot work with Leslie,

because if he's gonna be
the weakest link in my team,

I can't make him
any weaker than he already is.

Jaimee,
time for your next pick.

- Christian.
- Wow, Christian.

Courtney, please.

- Daniel.
- Daniel, wow.

Okay, Jaimee, next up.

- Ahran.
- Ahran.

Courtney, three left.

Big Willie.

Okay, Jaimee, this is where
you pick for both teams.

Who are you giving Courtney
for her last pick?

I...

Victoria.

Boom!

High five, high five! All right.

Elizabeth, final pick.
Good job.

Okay, you will each have
one hour to prepare,

and then,
you'll serve spectators

throughout tonight's
football game.

You guys are going to be making
classic all-American food.

Turkey burgers
and fish tacos.

If they take a burger
from the blue team,

they're also gonna take a burger
from the red team.

Food needs to be ready
when the game starts.

You guys had better
keep up with that demand.

In the end, the fans will be
deciding your fate.

It's time to meet
the players.

Well done.
Great to see you guys.

This big game tonight
will be overseen

by a very, very
special guest.

Guys, this evening's guest
holds the record

for the most rushing yards ever
in one single season.

Ladies and gentlemen,
NFL hall of famer...

Eric Dickerson.
Come on, Eric.

- Thanks.
- Hey, man, how's it going?

Eric Dickerson comes out.
This guy is a legend.

He's one of my football idols.

What kid did not grow up
and want to be him?

Thank you, thank you.

Childhood obesity is
a big problem in this country,

And NFL play 60 is trying
to fight that.

We want to try to encourage
everyone to be active

for at least 60 minutes a day.

What an amazing program.

Thank you.

MasterChef is happy
to make a donation

to Thousand Oaks High School

in support of NFL play 60
initiative.

Red team, blue team,
are you ready?

Yes, chef.

Your one-hour prep starts...

Now!

Off you go, kids, 20-yard line,

with Eric.

In this challenge,
both teams have just one hour

to create a healthy burger
and fish taco concessions

for hundreds
of hungry football fans.

For the burger, I think we have
all this shredded cabbage,

so we could make
a badass coleslaw.

- It'll be awesome...
- Zou want coleslaw

- on the burger?
- Hell, yeah.

Jaimee put out some ideas,
and I was like, "Oh, my god.

I think we in trouble."

The coleslaw will hold up
better than lettuce.

- Jaimee?
- Yes.

Can I please share what I think
about the burger with you?

- Yeah.
- Rule number one,

know your audience.
You're in Los Angeles.

Yeah, I don't think
the coleslaw is a good idea

- for the burger.
- Okay.

What do you think
on the burger?

Thousand island, grilled onions,
simple lettuce.

- Okay.
- If you're not happy with that,

Jaimee, say you're
not happy with it.

Well, considering you guys
didn't like my idea,

which is fair enough...

I honestly don't think
it's correct.

- I don't think it is either.
- Yeah, no, that's totally fine.

Okay, Thousand Oaks sauce,
grilled onion.

You start the patties,
I'll start the salsa,

and I'll come jump
on the patties with you.

Having been benched
by her own teammates,

Jaimee's red team has decided
to make a turkey burger

with Thousand Island sauce,

and for the fish taco,
corn salsa with coleslaw.

On the blue team,
coach Courtney takes control.

We're not gonna put
the avocado on the fish

because I want to have it
for the burger.

- Okay.
- And I would like you

to come up with a different
kind of a cream

with, like, cilantro...

We can do a cilantro/lime
cream...

Yes, I love cilantro and lime.

Come one, let's everybody
work together.

We don't want to do
a pressure test.

- No, no.
- And Leslie wants

to be on a winning team.
That's right.

One, two, three...

Blue! Blue!

The blue team has decided
to go with a guacamole burger

and for the fish tacos,
a cilantro and lime cream sauce.

- Hut!
- There you go.

Good job!

First time we've seen Courtney
as a team captain,

so it'll be very interesting
to see how she does.

I think blue team has
the actual muscle behind them,

and Courtney is gonna find a way
to harness that out of them.

Jaimee is a captain.

She's not very vocal, she's not
a spirited leader by nature.

She's a talented,
talented cook.

This whole stadium,
in 20 minutes,

is gonna be full with screaming,
ravished fans, so all I want

to make sure is these teams
are ready to feed them.

Don't worry about the salt
and stuff right now.

Guys...

- Get those patties made.
- Guys?

Right behind you, Jaimee.

I'm trying to be vocal about
the things we need to get done,

but people aren't
listening to me.

A burger is...

We have two tort...
we need two tortillas, guys.

Hey, hey, hey, be careful
not to talk over Jaimee.

I'm missing a lot of information
from Jaimee.

It's got to get done.

While the red team struggles
to get in the zone,

the blue team is relying
on Christian

to score a touchdown
with the turkey burger.

Ah!

We got those burgers coming,
Christian?

I mean, I don't like
the texture of it, it's too wet.

Christian puts too many eggs
in our ground turkey,

and our patties
are really wet.

Right.

Christian, explain the mix.
What's in there?

We got a little worcestershire
sauce, we got a little oregano.

It looks very wet.

Yes.

Who added all those eggs
in there?

I did.

Unbelievable.

Do we have
any more ground turkey?

I don't think we do.

- We don't?
- No.

We're running behind.
Look, the crowd is arriving.

We're up to our elbows in stuff
to do, and time is ticking.

I'm definitely thinking
we could be in trouble.

If you mess a protein up,
you're screwed.

It's so important
to nail those bloody proteins.

It's just so wet.
Why's it so sloppy?

So if it's sticking like that
on my hands,

can you imagine what it's
gonna be like on the grill?

It's gonna stick like [bleep]
to a blanket.

Hundreds of hungry fans
are now arriving

for tonight's big game,

and the pressure is on
for the home cooks.

Get those patties going,
Daniel.

Come on, guys,
we got this, all right?

Push, you guys! Push, blue!

In this challenge,
each team will have to serve

either a burger or a taco
to each of the fans,

but with just 20 minutes to go
before service,

the blue team is in big trouble
with their turkey burger.

Unbelievable.
Have we cooked one off yet?

We're cooking one off
right now.

Is that it there?

Yes, chef.

It's so wet.
You know, the wetter...

- I know it's [bleep] wet.
- But why'd you put

so many eggs in there?

Chef, I was not looking,
and then it happened.

Christian was the one seasoning
the meat and put the eggs in.

Our patties are really wet, and
we can't put 'em on the grill

'cause they'll fall
through the grill,

So we're trying to figure out
how they can keep their shape.

Oh, I know what's
gonna toughen it up.

Makes more sense
to throw it on the flat top.

I was like, "You know what?
Why not take these burgers...

you can sear it
on top of the flat top,

and I'm sure they'll
come out pretty good."

You're a hero, Christian,
a hero!

Thank you, babe!

There you go,
that's perfect.

Thank you.

While Christian has solved
the burger problem,

Leslie's fish tacos
are causing concern.

Put more seasoning.

I don't want to put too...
I'm telling you,

you're gonna get...
It's gonna be too salty.

Just... it just...
but it needs

- to be flavored.
- I know, I...

I just learned something
about Leslie,

that he doesn't know
how to season food properly.

For every one step forward
that Leslie takes,

he takes two steps backward.

Over on the red team,

Cutter has taken over
cooking the fish...

- How you doing, my man?
- Not good, man.

It's breaking apart.

And it soon becomes clear
that he is in over his head.

[bleep]!

Cutter, please do not destroy
any more fish, Cutter,

- or I'm moving you.
- Well, Jaimee, I'm trying not to, babe.

It's a lot harder than
it looks.

Cutter just can't get

the movement of the spatula
down.

Cutter, Cutter, come on.
You got to move 'em,

Like, one piece at a time.

See, they don't
fall apart on me.

So when he lifts the fish,
he's breaking it,

and it's a problem.

Ugh! My god.

Before service begins,

the judges sample
the blue team's food.

Taco looks nice.

Bland, right?

Yeah, they need salt
for sure.

Let's see if they were able
to cook their turkey.

Looks juicy still.
Look at that.

Now, that's a turkey burger.

- That's delicious.
- That's awesome.

- Courtney?
- Yes?

- So tacos are bland.
- Okay.

Fish is really bland, needs
a lot of season, a lot of work.

- Yes.
- Burger is absolutely delicious.

Thank you. Good.

Who seasoned the turkey meat?

- That was Christian.
- He nailed it.

Yes, he did.
He did a great job.

Who's seasoning the fish
for the taco?

That is Leslie's.

- You should go and manage Leslie.
- Bland, bland, bland.

Leslie is very stubborn.

If you yell at him,

he just yells back
and nothing gets done,

but if you have chef Ramsay say
it's not good,

then he'll do it
the right way.

Leslie, they want a lot more
seasoning on the fish.

Eeee! Ugh!

I'm staring at the fish
and it looks perfect,

but the judges want more salt,
so I gave 'em more salt.

You want salt?
I'm gonna give you salt.

Red team burger.
It's raw.

- Uh-ohh.
- No, don't eat that.

You see,
this is the problem.

Jaimee,
who cooked the burger?

I did, chef.

- Come here.
- Yes, chef.

It's [bleep] raw.

It's raw.
Come on, guys, please.

- Take it back.
- Think the fish taco

has the same problem?
Take a bite, Graham.

- How's that, Graham?
- No seasoning. Try it.

- No seasoning.
- No seasoning?

Taste it.

- Cutter.
- Come on, that's, like,

a frozen fish fillet.

It is bland.

Come on.

Jaimee, come here.

There is nearly 1,000 fans
sat behind you.

Got to get your team together.

- Yeah.
- Can you manage?

Yeah.

- Get it together.
- Yeah.

Please?
Let's go, now.

All right, guys,
make sure that fish is cooked

and make sure that turkey
is cooked.

Oh, here it goes.

Here comes the marching band.

When that band stops playing,
we're gonna start serving.

Yes, chef!

The marching band's
coming on the field,

and I'm just looking
at these bins of fish,

and I'm thinking,
"How the hell am I gonna get

all these cooked?"

Come on, old man.
It's all good, come on.

Y'all burning stuff!

All those grills
should be full now.

Okay?
Come on, you can do this.

Come on, baby,
you got it, you got it.

Yeah?
Let's go, don't give up.

Pull it out!

This is it!
Now or never!

Leslie's time to shine!
He's gonna win!

That's right, man.
I am not a five-time loser!

The players are now
taking the field.

The MasterChef NFL play 60
flag football game

is about to start.

All right, blue,
let's go, you guys!

Come on, guys,
we got this, all right?

Red team, baby!
Let's go, red team!

Here they come!

Let's go, guys!

Coming at you.
Four burgers coming at you.

I got two tacos behind you.

Guacamole burger, thanks.

For their football concessions,

the blue team's healthy
turkey burger

has guacamole
and muenster cheese...

While the red team's has arugula
and Thousand Island dressing.

Oh, taco.
Right here.

The blue team is serving
a fish taco

with slaw
and cilantro cream sauce,

while the red team's fish taco
is topped with a corn slaw

and an avocado cream sauce.

Don't want to get caught
behind, guys.

Awesome fresh burgers!
Thank you.

Everything's working
really well.

We're like
a well oiled machine.

I've got the wheels of my bus
turning back there,

Christian and Leslie
pumping out fish and hamburgers.

I'll put cheese on 'em.

- I'll put cheese on 'em.
- My man.

Then I've got Victoria and Ahran
right next to me.

Awesome!

Ahran is topping my burgers
with tomatoes and lettuce,

and Victoria's got buns coming
for me, like, every 30 seconds

with the guac already on them,

so we're working together
really well.

Touchdown, number 61,
blue team.

The lack of leadership
on the red team

is beginning to create mayhem.

That doesn't go on the fish.

Daniel!

Jaimee, take it easy, baby.
Take it easy, okay?

Well, it's, like,
burgers madness.

Let's go! Hurry up, they're
waiting, they're waiting!

Everyone just stay cool.

It's complete chaos.

Daniel, buns, right here!

Taco, we need tacos.

Jaimee, got to speed up.

- You got it, Jaimee?
- No.

The red team is falling
so far behind

that frustrated customers
are starting to walk.

Oh!
Guys, we got to get organized.

We're losing customers.
Oh!

Y'all need some more help
up here?

Yes, yes, Cutter!

- Okay, what do you need?
- I need help with the burgers.

- Burgers?
- Here.

- Come on, guys.
- Tell me where to go, hurry up.

Just smile, be happy.
Hey, a burger?

Hi, yeah.
Hey, have a good night.

Daniel, tell me
where you need me to help.

I need you on the grill!
The whole time I've needed you

- on the grill!
- Jaimee just said

she needed me up here.

No, we need help
getting the food out.

- Thank you.
- Right now.

Damn, quit hollering, dude.

Daniel,
you just lost two votes.

There's no system.
You're crossing over each other.

You're running behind.
People are walking off.

Where is the communication?

We're just losing votes
left, right, and center.

- We have to talk.
- I know, I know.

I can see that Jaimee
is just falling apart.

I mean, there's just
way too much pressure for her.

The losing team
faces a pressure test.

Come on, guys,
we need to communicate!

One minute left
until half time.

Touchdown, blue team,

in the MasterChef NFL play 60
flag football game.

Red team, look at me.
You're losing votes.

We need to communicate!

- Elizabeth?
- Yes, chef?

Someone needs to expedite.
Someone needs to...

Two on the tacos,
two on the burgers,

- one grilling behind.
- Okay.

- Look at me, this is no voice.
- Yes, chef.

It's just all silent.
You just lost two votes.

I don't mind
you being the expediter,

- but I need a voice.
- Yes, chef.

Please, now.
- Yes, chef.

Two tacos, two burgers, all day!
Tell me you heard me.

I heard you, two tacos.

Tacos coming.
Burger coming around.

This is my chance
to save my team

and to save my winning streak.

I got two burgers
and three tacos all day!

While Elizabeth tries to get
the red team back in the zone,

Joe checks in
with the football crowd.

- Blue team, red team?
- I like the red better.

You like the red team burger
better?

The verdict is split
on which team's food is better.

Yeah, I'm gonna try
the red team's taco.

- Little bland.
- Yeah.

- No taste.
- Try the blue team.

- Yeah.
- Better?

- A lot better.
- Blue team?

Blue team.

Touchdown, number 10!

And with only one quarter
left to play,

it's still anyone's game.

Let's go!
Come on, you guys!

Push! Push! Push!
Dig, dig, dig, guys!

And now,
it's [bleep] raining.

Let's go, let's beat this rain!
Come on, come on!

Beat the rain!
Let's go!

Go! Come on! Come on!
Yeah, push it out!

It starts downpouring.

So now we're, like, all hands
on deck, as fast as we can.

Just over one minute to go!

Go, Christian!
It's what we're all about, man!

I hear you.

Blue team, not a lose team!

Hurry, let's push through!

We got to get three more people!
Let's go! Here!

Run!
Basket.

Five, four...

Put it in the basket.
Put it in the basket.

Three, two, one, and stop!

Yeah, blue rules!
Whoo!

The crowd's votes
have been counted,

and now it's time to find out

whose food
the football fans preferred.

Thank you so much
for turning out

on a night
of absolute British weather.

Thank you.

Now, on to the results.

Two amazing teams
fought valiantly tonight

both on the field
and in the concessions stands.

But just, as you know,
on the field of football,

in MasterChef, there can
only be one winning team

at the end of the night.

Can't wait for them to say,
"Leslie, you are no longer

A freakin' loser!"

Ladies and gentlemen, this
has been the closest result ever

in the history
of this competition.

Tonight, the winning team...

I am just praying
to god almighty

that I don't go
to another pressure test.

I don't know if my heart
can handle it right now.

The team who just got
the most amount of votes,

51% to 49%...

Oh, my god.
congratulations...

Say "Blue."

The winning team tonight...

Say "Blue."
Say "Blue."

Is...

The red team,
ladies and gentlemen!

Blue team, unfortunately,
you know what that means.

You will now face
the dreaded pressure test.

I felt I did my job

and everybody on my team
did their job.

Maybe it's just in the cards
for me to be a total loser.

I don't know.

It's like, I don't know
what else to [bleep] do.

After losing the MasterChef
football concessions challenge,

the blue team prepares
themselves for a pressure test

where at least one person
will be sent home.

This is my fifth time.

It's like I know this place
like the back of my hand.

I can count all the nails
in all the boards.

Honestly, like,
we lost 49 to 51.

It was so close.

But the reality is,
no matter how close it is,

the balcony's still
really far away.

I'm pretty nervous.
This is my first pressure test,

and the judges are really
ratcheting up the competition,

and so I'm pretty worried
about what's gonna show up here,

what I'm gonna have to do.

Blue team, it is time
for you to face

the dreaded pressure test.

But not all of you are
going to have to cook tonight,

and the person
who will decide will be...

Courtney.

Just in case you were
wondering, as the team captain,

you can, based
on that outstanding performance,

save yourself if you wish.

I believe that the team
worked so well together

because they had
a very good leader,

and I'm going to save myself.

Excellent.

You're through to the top nine
of this competition.

So your captain is safe.

Four of you remain...

I would have done
the same thing.

But Joe, Graham, and myself

are gonna save one more
individual.

I would think my name
has to be in this one.

I'm outdoing every one of these
young, little whippersnappers,

and I make 'em look silly.

The person that we truly think
deserves to be safe

up on the gallery
is going to be...

Christian.

You were responsible
for that amazing burger.

Even the first burger that you
put out tasted delicious,

and so did the last one.
Good job.

Thank you, chef.

I tell ya,
I get no respect.

Leslie, nobody
in the history of MasterChef

has ever survived
five pressure tests.

Well, you haven't met me yet.

Are you three ready to find out

what you will have to cook
tonight

to stay
in this competition?

Yes, chef.

You know it's fresh,
because these little guys...

are still moving.

Plucked from the ocean
literally hours ago,

still alive, prawns.

I want you to make
a prawn dish

that is elegant
in its simplicity,

light, refreshing...

Ceviche.

Raw prawns mixed
with vegetables, chili, herbs,

dressed with citrus juice,
perfectly balanced.

I'm really relieved,
seeing ceviche.

I'm like, "Yeah, I can do this."
It's a few simple ingredients.

Now, please,
head to your stations.

Hold on, hold on.
Come back.

Wait.

Unfortunately, I respectfully
disagree with Graham.

Raw prawns are not
the way to go.

I like tempura fried prawns.

The batter brings out

the sweetness
of a perfectly cooked prawn.

This is the best way to eat
these little suckers.

Honestly, I think Joe and Graham
are completely wrong.

My way is the best.

Butterflied prawns,
stuffed and broiled.

Now, that's what I call
a prawn.

In tonight's pressure test,

you will be making all three
of our favorite prawn dishes.

Wow.

You have just one hour
to cook us

three incredible prawn dishes

with three very different
preparations.

Now, please go
to your stations.

You gotta do 3 dishes
in 60 minutes.

- Is that impossible?
- Nearly.

And there's one more thing.

There are three of you cooking
in this pressure test tonight.

By the end of this challenge,
just one of you will remain

in the MasterChef kitchen.

Wow.

This is the top ten
of this competition.

The stakes do not get
any higher than this.

I feel sick to my stomach.

This is a nightmare
of my first pressure test.

Your one hour...

starts...

Now.

I'm cooking for my life
right now.

I want to open
a Korean fusion restaurant,

so I do not want to go home.

I feel stressed out.

Making three different dishes,

it's a lot of damn pressure.

Come on, you [bleep].

He's the king
of the pressure test, man.

I'm just as nervous
as the people behind me.

They're just as good.

We're the top ten here.
This is no joke.

I don't underestimate 'em.
I just got to beat 'em.

So spot prawn.

Ceviche, tempura, and stuffed,

three completely different
techniques.

Totally different.

Ceviche, it's just
the essence of that seafood.

Little bit of lime juice
and some chilies,

a bunch of fresh cilantro.
When you get a bite,

you get all those flavors
that pop through.

It's got to be sweet and spicy,
right?

- That's the concept of a ceviche.
- yeah, exactly, yup.

Tempura, for me, is making
that batter just right

so it's fluffy and it's crispy
and it's salty.

Easy to overcook that,

especially
when you're frying them.

That oil's too hot,
then there's too much...

Undercook or overcook.

Stuffing them,

I like panko breadcrumbs
with some fresh basil.

I'd be cooking
my broiled spot prawns last.

They're the ones
that can overcook

and dry out the quickest.

Two people, bro.

35 minutes left to cook, guys.

Malibu man,
you got an 18-year-old,

you got a girl from Brooklyn,
and you live

overlooking the ocean
where these spot prawns

flip around in.

Is this a done deal?
Are you the winner?

I do best under pressure,

so hopefully,
I'm gonna take this home

and not have to worry
about it too much.

Good luck.

Ahran.

- Hi.
- How are we doing?

I'm really stressed out.

Why are you stressing out?

It's just that getting
all of them done

in 60 minutes is
a bit of a challenge.

What about the ceviche?
Have you made it before?

I don't even know what
it's supposed to taste like.

Yeah, it's really large.
You need it to be

the right size so that
it'll marinate.

- Okay.
- Yeah.

Two of the three of you
are going home.

You don't have a lot of room
for error, obviously.

No room.

This is unreal.

- Victoria.
- Yes, chef?

What are you
most nervous about?

Is it tempura?
Is it the broiled?

Honestly, it's the broiled,
chef, because I know

how it can easily overcook.

They're more difficult
than cooking a lobster.

I mean, are you confident
that Leslie and Ahran

will fall short
on this one tonight?

I have to be confident, chef.
There's only one of us

who's gonna survive, and I'm
gonna be the one who survives.

Good luck.

30 minutes gone.
30 minutes remaining.

Oh!

You can't be scared, Ahran.

Ahran is scared to death.

She's not even handling them
properly.

She hasn't even touched...

Look, she's going
at the shrimp with two...

With big towels and trying...

It's all wrong.

It's only getting better,
Ahran.

Ahran has done great things
in the kitchen,

but this is the first time
where she's showing her age.

So now, Ahran is aimless.

If only one is going home,

maybe you feel like
you could slide through.

When two out of three are
going home, no place to hide.

Oh, man.

3 dishes in 60 minutes...
this is crazy.

I mean,
this is almost impossible.

I am so thankful to be safe
in the balcony.

I didn't just dodge a bullet,
I dodged a hand grenade.

In tonight's pressure test,
three home cooks...

Victoria, Leslie, and Ahran...

have to prepare prawns
three ways.

At the end of this challenge,

only one will remain
in the competition.

Ahran,
how are you feeling?

Not very good, chef.

Doesn't sound like
the Ahran I know.

I'm really stressed
right now.

Hey.

You can do this.

Think what you've done
in this competition so far.

- Yeah.
- Okay?

And rely on that palate
like you have done so far.

- Yes, chef.
- Don't put your head down.

- Yes, chef.
- Come on, you can do this.

- Good luck.
- Thank you.

I am the youngest competitor
here,

but I'm also
one of the strongest,

and I cannot be a wimp
in this point in the game.

Two minutes to go.

Ooh, that went fast.

Two out of the three
are going home.

That's not a nice position
to be in, is it?

Double the pressure that we've
ever seen in the pressure test.

Huge, huge.

Whew.

30 seconds to go.
Here we go.

You can still do it, Ahran.
You're almost there.

Clean those plates,
please.

Here we go.
Ten, nine, eight...

There you go, Victoria.

Six, five, four,

three, two, one.

Hands in the air!

All three of you,
please bring your trays

down to the front,
thank you.

I hate to wish ill on people,
but honestly,

I'm wishing ill
on Ahran and Leslie.

This is a pressure test
that's designed almost

to incite epic failure.

It's time to taste

your amazing Santa Barbara
spot prawns three ways.

So, Leslie,
I wanted the ceviche.

What exactly do we have
in here?

A little lime juice,
lemon juice, salt, pepper,

tomato, a little jalapeno
just to add some heat.

And, um...

The perfect texture.

The seasoning could have been
a little more,

but the acidity of that ceviche
was right on.

- Thank you.
- Good job.

Thank you, chef.

Ahran.
So you looked stressed.

I felt more stressed than I was
taking the S.A.T.S.

Really?

But I'm glad I was able
to pull through in the end.

Now, with the ceviche,
what all did you put in there?

I put peppers, blood orange,
lemon, lime, some sugar, salt,

cilantro, sherry vinegar,
olive oil.

There's a lot of liquid
in there.

Too much liquid,
too...

- Almost pickled 'cause of the vinegar.
- Okay.

The great thing about it though,
is the use of those chilies.

Really pop through
and actually help accentuate

the flavor of the spot prawn.

- Okay.
- Thanks.

Victoria.

The thing here is...

It's like a cocktail.

- Yup.
- You know what I mean?

- Mm-hmm.
- And there is definitely

- a lot of onion...
- Yes, there is.

Going on through here.

The onion really
is overpowering

the natural sweetness
of that prawn.

Definitely.

- Thanks.
- Thank you.

Tempura.
Tough challenge, huh, Leslie?

Very tough, yes.

So looking at Victoria's
and Ahran's tempura,

how do you feel
about yours?

- I think mine is pretty good.
- Yeah?

Not as crispy as I would have
liked them to be,

but I tend to like a thinner
batter in my tempura too.

It's a very simple tempura,
very light,

but in this case,
these shrimp are so good,

I'm thinking that maybe
that was strategic.

Well, it's all
about the shrimp.

It's not about what
you're putting on it.

Ahran.
Looks very nice.

Thank you.

The color is much more
golden brown

- than everyone else's.
- Yeah.

Feel good about that?

Not really,
'cause I feel like when I go

to a Japanese restaurant,
the color should be lighter.

Rich, and your shrimp
is cooked well.

- Thank you.
- Tastes like tempura

you might get at a restaurant.

Thank you.

It's very white.

What was the temperature
of the oil?

It was lower than I had
wanted it to be.

Be nice if they were
a little golden brown,

but the shrimp inside actually
looks like it's cooked well.

You know, it's got
a good crispiness.

It's got the right density.

I think probably better
than the other two.

It's good.
The cook was good.

- Thank you, sir.
- Thank you.

Right, describe your broiled
Santa Barbara spot prawns.

The spot prawns were
sliced in half,

put a little salt and pepper
on 'em, put some of the sauce

from the other shells
in with the bread crumbs.

The prawns are cooked
beautifully.

Great flavor, beaufully
seasoned, breadcrumbs fragrant.

Slightly concerned
about that sauce

that you put
in the breadcrumbs.

I just wouldn't have
made them so soggy.

There's two of you
going home tonight.

- You know that, right?
- Yes.

Good.

Ahran, Ahran, Ahran.

Describe your spot prawns,
broiled, please.

They're just sliced in half,
and then the breadcrumb mixture

is breadcrumbs, some parsley,
and salt, pepper,

just a little, though, 'cause
I didn't want to put too much.

The actual spot prawn
are glistening

in terms of the cook,
beautifully done.

- Thank you.
- But...

What's the one thing that
absolutely is missing on that?

Salt.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

Victoria, what's
in the breadcrumb mixture?

Salt and pepper, and they were
toasted in some butter

as well as some tarragon.

So visually, from here,
they look like

they're a little bit
sort of drowned in breadcrumbs.

Yes, chef.

Why so many breadcrumbs
on top?

I never made it before,
honestly,

so I just made that choice.

Yeah.

Damn.

Oh, Victoria,
it's raw.

Oh, Victoria.

It's raw.

Damn, damn, damn.

Seasoned beautifully,
but cooked terribly.

Damn.

This is what my nightmares
are made of,

and it's right there
on the plate.

Leslie, Ahran, Victoria,
as you know,

only one of you
will survive tonight.

Please excuse us,
'cause we have got

two very difficult decisions
to make right now.

Damn.

I think the amount
of breadcrumbs

that Victoria put on hers
stopped them from cooking,

but everything else
tasted fine.

Ahran made a pretty significant
error as well,

putting the sherry
in the ceviche.

Leslie's, I don't think
they were that bad.

They weren't that good.

Top ten's gonna be top eight
in a second.

It's tough.

All three of you have
one thing in common.

You guys are extremely talented,
but tonight,

only one of you will be safe
from elimination.

The first home cook
that we are sorry

to see leave
the MasterChef kitchen,

please step forward
and say good-bye...

Victoria.

Victoria,
we're very fond of you,

but tonight, the stuffed prawns
were as raw as the ceviche,

a technical error at this point
that was just too much.

Yes, sir.

Please put your apron
on your bench.

It's hard to say good-bye,

but I'm excited to move on
to what's next.

Victoria.

Boom! Yes!

I came into this loving food,

and honestly,
it's only grown 100%.

I am stoked about my future.

I am stoked about what
I've learned here at MasterChef.

Team blue!

And I'm ready to hit the ground
running and burn it down.

Whew, tough.
Um...

Tonight, this is a tale
of our eldest

versus our youngest,

and how ironic is that,
when I think back of the battles

and the arguments
you two have had,

and yet,
you've both grown

to put your head down
and respect each other.

Leslie, give us a little insight
to the journey.

Is it everything
you could have imagined?

And more.

I did not expect to meet
as talented people as I have.

I did not expect to grow
the way I have been growing...

And to work out my differences
with this young lady.

She's not a girl.
She's a young lady.

Ahran, how's the journey been
for you?

You know, to really be able
to achieve my dream

and get coaching
from you amazing mentors

is such an honor.

Leslie and Ahran,
it hurts all three of us

to say this
more than you'll ever know.

The person leaving
tonight is...

Ahran.

It's a very bittersweet moment.

I kind of felt that bond,
you know?

Maybe it's me missing
my own daughter.

I really, honestly learned
to care for this person.

Young lady,
you've been amazing.

Unfortunately, tonight,
Santa Barbara spot prawns

got the better of you,
but let me tell you something.

18 years of age,
and you are so mature.

Thank you.

Light-years ahead
of any other 18-year-old

we ever had in this
competition, let me tell you.

I can't wait to see
where you're going.

You have not reached
your potential.

Well done, my darling.

Thank you.

Come and say good-bye.

Thank you.

Great job.

- Thank you.
- Well done, darling.

- Thank you.
- Well done.

Now, before you go home
and get those schoolbooks out,

who's gonna win
MasterChef?

Leslie.

Love you, girl.

Wow.
Now, that is a turnaround

and a half.
Well done, my darling.

Thank you.

Please, put your apron
on your bench.

I'm very proud of myself
for coming this far,

and I think I am definitely
someone who gives hope

to a lot of 18-year-olds
who have a dream

but are scared
of really pushing towards it.

Where's the baby?

Ahran, well done.

Oh, my god!

Wow, it looks gorgeous.

- Thank you.
- That has the base

of possibly one of the best
dishes we've ever had.

Thank you so much.

This is an excellent dish
and a super example

of what cooking
from the heart

from the family can be
on a plate.

Good job, Ahran.

Thank you.

I've never heard my parents
tell me that they're proud of me

until I entered the competition.

So it's a huge deal for me,

and nothing could give me
that satisfaction.

Nothing.

Next week, on MasterChef...

You got to get
in the oven fast.

The home cooks pair up...

If you want to check it,
check it.

And Gordon Ramsay joins them
for a game of chicken.

Are you kidding me?
This is gonna be epic.

Some will rule the roost...

It's kind of a dreamy dish.

... while others fall foul.

I don't expect to see
that kind of crap

at this stage
of the game.

And a shocking twist...

Tonight's pressure test...
or should I say, "Tests"?

... will eliminate one more hopeful.
