Go! The home cooks faced their toughest critics in their very first team challenge.
They're children, not animals.
Guys, I need help.
Start putting some meatballs on, or you're never gonna have it done.
I'm seriously about to lose it.
When the red team triumphed The blue team faced off in a pressure test and things got ugly.
- You can save yourself.
- I'm gonna take it.
That was a bitch move.
In my neighborhood, that'd get your ass kicked.
In the end It's time to say good-bye.
Adriana was eliminated.
Tonight, the mystery box is tackled by a special guest - Whoo! - I'm Gordon Ramsay.
Whoo, hoo, hoo, hoo! Isn't there enough pressure on us already? And there are some big fumbles in the kitchen.
One cook plated raw fish.
These kind of dishes send you home.
Then, a twist in the elimination challenge Remove one mixer.
Are you kidding me? Puts one of the season's strongest home cooks in jeopardy.
Who will be the next to say good-bye to the MasterChef kitchen? Your time is done.
Find out right now on MasterChef.
Great to see you all.
Let's go, guys.
I'm super happy to be in the MasterChef kitchen.
and my daughter is 100% of my motivation.
Like, I have to win for her.
I'm here to cook.
and I know how to cook.
So if y'all think I'm just a loudmouth from the Bronx, Get outta here.
I can do this.
Welcome back to the MasterChef kitchen.
It's time for your next mystery box challenge.
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.
Today, somebody will be cooking a mystery box beside you to give you the benchmark of a great chef.
Now, would you like to be introduced to the chef that all of you will be cooking alongside? Yes, chef.
Excited? Yes, chef.
Take a look behind you at the MasterChef doors.
I'm thinking Bobby Flay.
I'm thinking Mario Batali.
I'm thinking Anne Burrell.
Is it Rachael Ray? Is it Wolfgang Puck? Good evening.
I'm Gordon Ramsay.
Are you ready? Yes, chef.
Doors open, and it's Gordon Ramsay.
So it's like, "hello? isn't there enough pressure on us already?" Joe, Graham.
Ladies and gentlemen, it is now time to discover what lies under that mystery box.
One.
Two.
Three.
Lift.
Okay, okay, okay.
In front of you, you have black cod, black and white sesame seeds, shiitake mushrooms, baby beets, ginger, cauliflower, soy, rice wine vinegar, and miso paste.
Yes! The first thing that my eyes go to is the soy sauce and the rice wine vinegar.
I love to cook, like, asian fusion at home for my family.
Home cooks Chef Your 60 minutes starts Now! - What's up? - What are you doin'? Do you know what? I've made my mind up already within seconds of lifting that box off.
So I'm not gonna tell you what I'm doing.
What would you do? Mixed fried cod and vegetables.
Like, fish and chips.
a real asian fritto misto.
Nice.
Graham.
Like, a cauliflower bisque.
Go a vegetable route.
Maybe do some pickled beets.
Yep.
I'm gonna do a crispy-skinned piece of the cod.
I'm doing some miso broth with some ginger, getting some acidity going on in here.
Winning the mystery box, you're kind of in charge of who goes home in a kind of an abstract way.
I'm gonna do a pan-seared black bass, make a couple of purees and a miso-flavored rice to accompany that.
I'm trying to prove that I belong here and that I'm here to stay till the end, you know? No matter how it is, I'm not gonna be the next one going home.
Dang.
Chef, you're freaking me out, not cooking what's going on? Honestly There's no great rush.
All right.
Where's he goin'? Everyone starts pulling things out of their box.
People are running to the pantry.
and Gordon goes for a stroll.
Gordon's just hanging out.
He said he's gonna be cooking right with us, but I don't know, I think he's got a little show-off to him.
Gordon, you worried? I'm coming for ya.
It's kind of intimidating because, you know, he can come back and whip together a hell of a meal in, like, five minutes, you know? Tea wasn't in the mystery box, so technically, you can't be using that right now, Gordon.
But I'll let it slide.
Guys, half of your time has evaporated! and chef Ramsay has yet to begin cooking.
I think Gordon might have a run for his money today.
I've been in the middle most of the time that I've been here, and I think wee gonna have to fix that today.
If I'm not top three this time, I'm gonna be pretty pissed.
Chef, welcome to the competition.
Are you are you gonna start cooking something? Uh, halfway? Yes.
You gonna actually cook, or are you just gonna make us a little salad in your half hour left? Watch and learn, mr.
Bastianich.
I don't know if he's gonna go with an asian twist We got shiitake mushrooms going in with the shallots.
What herb is that, chef? This is basil, mint in the dressing, and basil to finish the rice.
"Bah-sil" is actually pronounced "bay-sil" here.
I wonder if he's gonna go for the "ori-gah-no.
" I don't know, but he has no "tuh-mah-toes.
" Yeah, that's true.
Luca.
Ciao, Joe.
Today is the day you gotta deliver.
What are you making? I'm making a crispy-skin black cod.
- Okay.
- I made a miso sauce that I'm not sure if I'm gonna use it.
- You like the sauce? - I'm not sure about it.
You like the sauce? I'm That sauce could make or break you.
Thank you.
- How we doin', Jonny? - Good.
Still think I'm doing a play on fish and chips.
- Fish and chips.
- Yes.
Do you think that there's a chance that chef Ramsay is gonna do fish and chips as well? I hope not, I don't wanna I don't wanna make the same dish as him.
Yeah, you wanna go head-to-head with that? Yeah, if he does it in the last ten minutes, I'm gonna be pretty upset if it takes me an hour and he gets it done in ten minutes.
- Howard, what do we got? - Whats up, Joe, how you doing? Porcini, soy sauce, rice and I'm doing a soy sauce vinaigrette.
and I'm gonna bread the black cod and also sear it, so Your station looks like a disaster.
I'd hate to see you on the bottom here.
No, definitely not.
I've been there too often, so it's time to get to the top.
Okay, thanks, Howard.
Ladies and gentlemen and chef Ramsay, just over ten minutes to complete your mystery box dish.
- Damn.
- How's Gordon doing? I think he's doing all right.
I see him pan-searing.
He's got two plates out, which I don't understand what's up with that.
He's probably got a backup - or a practice one.
- Yeah.
We'll see.
One minute left.
If you haven't begun plating now, you had better start.
Let's go, guys.
Come on! Fire it up.
Ten seconds left.
Ten seconds.
Eight, seven, six, five Come on, guys! Four, three two, one, and stop.
Gordon, bring your dish up here, please.
Wow.
Everyone, come up here and see how a MasterChef deals with the mystery box.
So I'll give you a quick explanation of what it is.
A delicious sesame-seed-crusted black cod on a bed of fragrant rice with caramelized cauliflower and a roasted peanut miso sauce.
Wow.
Guys, jump in.
It's awesome, man.
Beautiful sauce on it.
Beautiful texture on the cauliflower.
Beautifully seared.
Wow.
Super tasty and flavorful.
He did an excellent job, of course.
No surprise there.
Pretty inspiring.
This is something worth working towards.
All right, please, everybody, back to your stations.
After observing and tasting throughout the challenge, the judges now take one final look to identify three standout dishes.
The winner of this challenge will receive a major advantage in the next round.
Well done, everybody.
Here's the good news.
We were really, really impressed today.
But one dish stood out as appalling.
One home cook plated raw fish.
That's not raw fish.
I was, like, "did somebody Did somebody do, like, sashimi or something?" Yep, it's you.
We were really, really impressed today.
But one dish stood out as appalling.
One home cook plated raw fish.
That's not raw fish.
I was, like, "did somebody Did somebody do, like, sashimi or something?" Howard, bring that dish up.
Even without tasting it, you know immediately, it's raw.
It won't even separate.
I'm just amazed.
This kind of [bleep.]
is what pisses us off and these kind of dishes are what send you home.
For the first time in this competition, we were struggling and arguing over the three best dishes.
The first dish we wanna bring up, all of its components worked really well together.
So far, this home cook has been consistently in the middle of the pack.
This dish might help them rise to the top.
Please step forward James.
I'm looking at James' dish, and it doesn't nearly look as good as mine.
A pan-seared, crispy black cod with a toasted sesame cauliflower puree, and shiitake mushroom salad with a miso vinaigrette.
This dish caught all three of our eyes.
You have a perfect cook on the black cod.
See? Moist, glistening.
Great, great salt-acid balance.
A professional cook would be proud to put a dish together as good as this.
Thank you.
Who are you cooking for at home? My fiancee.
You cook fish a lot back in Houston? Yeah.
That's one of the best things that we've had in a long time.
It's delicious.
It's got finesse.
It's well-balanced.
Is this a fluke, or is this what you're about? That's exactly what I'm about.
I can't wait to see what's gonna happen in the next couple of challenges.
Thanks, guys.
The next dish looked kind of like a dish out of a restaurant.
The dish was actually very similar to what chef Ramsay put forward.
Please, step forward Beth.
A sesame-crusted, pan-seared black cod with caramelized beets and cauliflower in a miso vinaigrette.
It's delicious, and it's cooked perfectly.
Awesome.
- Good job.
- Thanks, Graham.
Thank you.
I had my eye on every little detail that you were doing.
I'm excited.
Fish is still crispy.
It's glistening.
It's from the heart, from the way you seasoned, the acidity in the rice, cooking the fish on the skin.
It's delicious.
One of the best dishes I've ever tasted in this competition so far.
Well done.
You should be proud.
Thank you.
Delicious.
The third and final dish that we want to examine even further was not only was the fish cooked beautifully, but there's this glaze and the balance in that glaze was outstanding.
We likened that glaze to some of the best japanese restaurants anywhere in the world, which is shocking, considering this glaze was made by an Italian.
- Luca.
- Whoa, ho, ho, ho! I'm shocked.
I'm surprised that Luca's up there.
He looks a little cocky right now.
This is a pan-seared black cod with some shiitake mushrooms that I braised in butter.
and there's snap peas.
What did I tell you about this sauce, when I tasted it? It could've been the thing that made me stand up or put me in the bottom.
Luca This sauce is amazing, 'cause it's kind of like the culmination of your journey.
You understood the protein, better than anyone else.
You have French technique, Asian flavors.
You made me proud.
Grazie mille.
Bravo.
Grazie.
You've got the balance right: puree on the plate; sugarsnap peas, cooked with acidity as well; the glaze.
It's a tough thing to get right.
- Great job.
- Thank you, chef.
- Really well done.
- Thank you.
Thank you.
Okay.
James, Beth, Luca, there can only be one winner.
I may have just cooked a great dish, but if I don't get the advantage, I'm back right in the same boat.
The dish that we feel was the most complex, the most delicious I came up so close to winning.
Now, I wanna hear my name.
Congratulations Gordon.
Come on, man.
Me.
In tonight's mystery box challenge, the top three dishes have already been tasted.
Three phenomenal dishes.
All of you, well done.
The dish that we feel was the most complex, the most delicious, and the one that really sung and harmonized beautifully all those ingredients, that dish belongs to Luca.
Yes! - You ready? - Yes, sir.
Let's go.
- Bravo.
- Grazie.
Ah? Phenomenal.
As the winner the mystery box challenge, Luca is now in control of the elimination test, where at least one person will leave the competition.
To be crowned MasterChef, you will have to master the art of desserts.
The first item you have to choose from is an all-time classic.
Cookies.
spectacular cookies.
Wow.
The next item, in recent years, this treat has absolute skyrocketed into a billion-dollar business.
Oh, cupcakes.
The final option A classic layered cake.
For winning the mystery box challenge with that amazing dish, you are now safe from elimination.
Yes.
Thank you very much.
Your second advantage, Luca, is that you now get to choose which one of these three treats everybody else out there will be cooking.
So, Luca, what's it gonna be? I think Okay, Luca.
Head on up.
This young man won the mystery box challenge.
Ciao.
He is safe from elimination.
Time to find out what you will be baking today.
Cupcakes.
It's not a cupcake.
It's a dozen cupcakes.
Got it? Luca now gets a third advantage, that we haven't even told him yet.
This one is a big one.
You now have the advantage of coming downstairs and removing one mixer.
Damn.
- Wow.
- That's right.
Oh, my gosh, that's gonna make someone have to spend so much more time, and their arm is going to die from so much whisking.
Like, you shouldn't have to do that by hand.
Think about it very carefully.
I would like to think that Luca would not take my mixer, but then again, he's European, therefore, unpredictable.
Bam.
There goes my stand mixer.
Well-played.
Thank you.
Oh Jordan saved himself in the last team challenge as a team captain, and for me, as a respect for your team players, captain goes down with the ship.
So tock.
In Krissi's words, that is called a bitch move.
Jordan, what does that do to you right now? I'm a big boy.
I got some pipes on me.
I'll just work that much harder.
For one of you, cupcakes, this is your last night in the MasterChef kitchen.
Your 90 minutes starts Now.
I can do cupcakes, because I've watched my sister do so many cupcakes back in Oregon.
I am gonna nail it.
My daughters know that I can cook good.
They also know I don't do no baking I got baking soda, baking powder.
So right now, I'm stumped.
Look at the speed of Jordan.
Everybody else is in sort of first or second gear.
Jordan's having to go to third or fourth gear straight out of the gate.
This is gonna be the toughest part right now, is breaking down this butter and sugar.
This is gonna take you forever.
He was like this.
Yeah, bye-bye.
If Luca thinks that this is gonna be a disadvantage, he's got something coming.
I'm gonna be here after this challenge, no matter what.
Jordan may be in big trouble right now.
Let's go, guys.
In this elimination test, our home cooks have just 90 minutes to create But mystery box winner Luca Thanks for the challenge, buddy.
Has tried to ice Jordan's chances Good luck.
by removing his mixer.
You gotta take out the best players, and and I've been ranked as one of the top competitors.
Smart move by him.
I'm not the joker, that everybody thinks I am.
I'm here for business.
I'm hoping that batter is in the oven.
I'm doing a tahitian vanilla bean cupcake with a white chocolate frosting on top.
This is the time to redeem myself.
What's the plan? What do you got for us today? I have three different types of cupcakes: a raspberry limeade, a chocolate hazelnut, and then banana foster.
I'm doing cream cheese frosting right now.
- That sounds very ambitious.
- It is.
Do you do a lot of baking? No, I don't.
Jordan.
Right.
Uh, first of all, how are you feeling? I'm a little nervous right now.
Are you out of your comfort zone? Are you in the danger zone? I don't think danger zone, but I'm definitely out of my comfort zone.
What was going through your mind, when he unplugged that mixer? He's fighting for the other people, and I'm here to fight for myself.
Yeah, well, he seems to be enjoying himself up there right now, like the cat who's got the cream.
Malcolm, how are we doing? Looks like you're stressed out.
Uh, nah.
I'm actually very happy.
- No? You feel good? - Yeah, feels great.
This is bananas.
- Bananas? - Like, a drunken banana.
I'm trying to really mash it, 'cause I'm gonna inject it It looks it looks wrong.
You're gonna inject that into a cupcake? Yes.
What is it? is that raw banana? No, it's cooked.
Wow.
Right, Bime.
I'm going real simple with it.
I'm gonna do a basic cupcake.
but the frosting, I'm gonna do a chocolate ganache.
Plus, I'm gonna do a a whipped cream frosting.
and I'm just gonna try to incorporate the colors - and make it look pretty nice.
- Wow.
So Jessie, what happened here? These these are nice.
These, not so much.
I messed up with my flour ratio on those.
I pull out my first tray.
The vanilla didn't rise as much as the chocolate.
I've got a puff on one, and one's flat.
You're gonna use these? You're gonna submit these? I second-guess myself because Joe said enough to make me nervous, so I'm gonna make another batch.
but there are only small pie tins left.
I'll make smaller ones.
I make smaller ones, they all come out the same size.
Kathy, how are you doing? Good, chef.
How are you? - Um, cupcakes.
- Are in the oven.
They'll be out in five minutes, chef.
Okay, what was the mix? On the bottom of three of them, it's peanut butter.
On the bottom of another three, it's cookies, and on the bottom of another three, it's peanuts.
Why complicate a cupcake with three different textures? - Why not? - Have you done that before? - No.
- You've never done that before? Mm-mm.
to go, guys.
If you're in the market to buy 12 cupcakes right now.
I tell you what, I wouldn't be buying Malcolm's, that's for sure.
I wouldn't I wouldn't even go to his bakery.
I'd pay somebody to eat Malcolm's for me.
I think that Jordan, who lost the mixer obviously, big disadvantage, he's working it.
He's double-timing it, sweatin'.
Bethy, who we've seen shine, has flour and sugar all over her, all over her face.
She's trying to do too much.
Just under five minutes to go.
Let's go, guys.
Come on, you gotta garnish.
Get 'em done, get 'em piped, get 'em in the box.
Come on, come on.
Focus.
Focus! Come on! We cannot judge you if your cupcakes are outside the box.
Come on.
Bethy's toasting her nuts with a blowtorch right now with almost minute left to go.
Come on, come on, come on, come on Come on, Bime! Get them in the box! All for nothing if you don't get 'em in.
Ten, nine, - eight, seven - Look at Jordan.
Has he got it? Six, five, four, three, two, one, and stop! Everybody, hands up.
Well done.
Let's get the Italian stallion from the gallery downstairs.
Right.
Let's start, please.
Uh, uh-oh.
Howard.
What do you got in the box? Tahitian vanilla bean cupcake with awhite chocolate buttercream frosting.
- You nervous? - Oh, yeah.
You make cupcakes often? Hell no.
I don't even eat cupcakes.
Did I upset you earlier? A tiny bit.
This is an elimination test.
This is an elimination test.
- Are you nervous? - Oh, yeah.
I'm not sure if I have well-made cupcakes or not.
I'm hoping that they're enough to keep me in the competition, to keep me going on to the next challenge.
So did you use real vanilla bean? I used, uh, Tahitian vanilla bean extract.
Did you whip up the eggs? I sure did, yeah.
It's a nice, very kind of, um, a light and airy cake.
We fell out earlier.
We can make up over a cupcake.
Let's hope so.
- Good job, Howard.
- Thank you.
Nice, crisp topping.
Cooked to perfection.
Start believing in yourself a little bit more because the filling, done beautifully.
The actual cupcake is definitely the hero, a bit like you tonight.
- Good job.
- Thank you.
- Well done.
- Whoo! I'm excited to be able to make something that they that they actually complimented me on.
I am really surprised that, yeah, all the dishes that I could have impressed them with, I ended up doing it with a batch of cupcakes.
It's good to be back on top.
Next up, Malcolm.
I have a buttermilk cupcake with a mascarpone cream cheese frosting and rum banana cream inside.
They almost look like it didn't bake long enough.
It didn't bake at the right temperature.
It just looks and feels so Like they're made out of saltines or something.
It's really eggy, which gives it that that super dense kind of feel to it.
It's like a doorstop.
- What's inside? - The rum banana cream inside.
There's a weird taste in there.
Something soury, tarty, and just really strange.
I can't put my my finger on it.
I've just been taken up there, right to the premier league of cupcakes, and you've just kicked me in the bollocks and put me right down at the bottom.
Malcolm, they're gross.
I can't blame anybody but me.
I can't blame the ovens.
I can't blame anything.
I made a crucial mistake somewhere in there.
Today's not my day.
Next, Bime.
Tell me what you brought.
I got a nice, moist vanilla cupcake with a delicious vanilla and chocolate whipped cream frosting.
Bime, when did you become such an artist? How much you miss your girls? Ah, come on, man, don't do it.
I just want to make sure that you know that if you keep cooking like this, you're not gonna see them for a while.
You were able to get a lot of chocolate flavor into that frosting.
I'm serious.
This is great.
Kathy, let's go.
Kathy's cupcakes look like a neon tripping monkey took a [bleep.]
on top of 'em.
Four different cupcakes.
One of them is just plain vanilla.
Three of them have peanuts on the bottom, and then the other one has chocolate peanut butter on the bottom.
Oh, boy.
I don't unders where's this Where's you put the stuff on the bottom? Mm-hmm.
Where did you Where did you learn how to do that? It's really kind of hard on the bottom.
Frosting is I don't know.
I hope this doesn't send you home.
Bethy, bring 'em up.
This one is like a banana foster with a banana cream inside, homemade caramel, and a mascarpone cream cheese frosting.
And then this one is a raspberry limeade with a lime buttercream frosting.
The last one is an almond chocolate cake with hazelnut liqu Um, visually stunning.
I meseanously stunning.
Here's the thing.
The workload in there looks like you spent three hours, Not 90 minutes.
It's just extraordinary.
so banana foster.
What's in the center? It's a banana cream.
Cupcake, moist, delicious.
Topping, phenomenal.
- Great job.
- Thank you.
Jessie.
Are they there? What are they? Looks like whack-a-mole.
They're, like, little ones.
You know you're trying to sell us a dozen cupcakes, right? There's 12 there.
All right, tell me about what is in the cupcakes.
i did two different types Vanilla bean with a cream cheese icing, toasted hazes, and white chocate, and the second one is chocolate coffee liquir, cream cheese frosting as well.
- That's this one? - Yes.
It feels like this is a little bit of a let-down.
I just wish you had, visually, given me more.
I mean, you seem to be able to manage the aesthetics on your plates really well.
And today I just don't see it there.
You can see already, just based on that right there, it's just, like, a solid piece of cake.
I like the frosting.
So, visually, they look underwhelming.
It's dry.
For me, this is your worst performance in this competition.
Someone's going home tonight, and you may be one of them.
Tonight's elimination challenge was to create a beautiful box of 12 cupcakes, but while the judges predicted Jessie to be one of the favorites, her cupcakes now threaten to send her home.
Someone's going home tonight, and you may be one of them, because that is nowhere near, what I expected from you.
I get the idea.
You don't want small cupcakes.
This is horribly embarrassing.
I'm worried I'll be in the bottom three.
Okay, if there's one person's cupcakes that all three of us are absolutely dying to taste, it's this young man.
Jordan, let's go.
No mixer, having to work twice as hard as everybody else.
What's inside that box? We have a simple valla beni cupcake and a hint of basil in there.
Mascarpone cheese frosting on top, and we have a little mini chocolate truffle with some cayenne in there for some spice.
I've got a surprise for you.
Yeah? Because before I taste your cupcake, we've invited a very special guest to taste them.
All right.
Luca, get your ass up here.
Let's go.
If there's one person I want to see the reaction, I want to see what he thinks of your cupcakes, it's the man that tried to [bleep.]
you in this pressure test.
Here you go, Luca.
Take a bite.
Mmm.
What do you think? Safe or going home, potentially? They are delicious.
- Good job.
- Thank you.
Can I keep it? Uh, yeah, of course you can.
- Thank you.
- Good job, man.
Thank you, Luca.
Delicious.
I mean, seriously.
I like seeing what they throw at you, and you still bounce back with a vengeance, 'cause that is very good.
Good job.
Thank you, chef.
I'm proud today.
I worked the hardest today.
I think this is a little punch to Luca's [bleep.]
.
I showed him up.
Bring it on.
Oh, my god.
Congratulations to all of you that delivered spectacular, world-class cupcakes.
But At least one of you is going home, and we need a minute to think about it.
- Jessie missed it.
- Yeah.
She, like, missed the spirit of the whole competition.
- Right? - Yeah, and they looked dreadful.
I think they're being hard on you right now.
Howard pulled it out of the bag, finally.
individual challenge.
He did step up.
It was nice to see him kind of come back.
Out from the hole? A little bit.
Not much, though.
I think we all know who's going home.
What an extraordinary There were some serious "wow" factors in those boxes.
There were two who really stood out.
Those two will become team captains in the next team challenge.
And this one is huge.
The first team captain Congratulations Bime.
Whoo! Yeah, baby! Got it! I didn't think off a cupcake I was gonna be able to pull this off.
They know, "we gotta watch out for this guy," because I'm not giving up without a fight.
Great job, but There was one box of cupcakes that were even better than yours, Bime.
Congratulations Bethy! Thank you.
Young lady, brilliant job.
Sadly, this is an elimination test, and so, to the three worst, at least one of you will be leaving this competion.
Can we get this [bleep.]
over with? The first batch The cook on the cupcakes was all wrong.
Please step forward Malcolm.
The second disastrous box of cupcakes.
Please, step forward Kathy.
The third person we want to see up here This home cook has been near the top, but they were severely tripped up today.
Jessie.
At least one of you are going to be leaving the competition.
Malcolm, step forward.
You made so many fundamental flaws.
Anything to say? I can only learn from my mistakes, and and try to grow from them.
For now You are not safe.
Please, step back.
Kathy, step forward, please.
Are you done? No, chef, I'm not done.
Have you peaked? No, chef, not yet.
Because watching you decorate those cupcakes was like someone in kindergarten that was out for a a jolly.
Your cupcakes tasted like you were ready to go home.
Are you ready to go home? No, chef, I'm not.
I want to keep fighting.
We don't think You're ready to go home either.
Back to your station.
Jessie Completely missed the mark.
I've seen what you've done in this competition so far, and how serious you take these challenges.
What were you doing? I just I made a bad judgment error.
People have left this competition with smaller mistakes.
We've decided.
This competition means everything to me because this is what I want my career to be.
It's like what I've focused my life around.
I deserve to be here, but I messed up tonight.
One of you is staying, and one of you is going home.
I really tried my hardest, and I don't want to go home.
I want to show them, like, I really want to be here.
The person going home tonight is is Malcolm.
Jessie, back to your station.
Malcolm, your time is done.
