"Last week on MasterChef, two simple ingredients..." " Peanut butter and jelly." " Whoo!" "I got this for sure." "Put America's best home cooks..." "Get my workout in today." "In a jam." "You didn't get peanut butter or jelly." "Can I borrow some peanut butter?" "I've got to use it." "Can I borrow some peanut butter?" "My apron's already coming off." "And Sara..." "The only person that's going to like it is Shelly." "We feel that you're checked out." "Said good-bye to the MasterChef kitchen." "Tonight..." "Bring it on, cowboys." "Chow bell!" "The top ten..." " That is hot." " Hurry up, hurry up." "Are in for the roughest ride..." "I just turned those." "Don't worry about it." "I got it." "Of their culinary lives." "Get 'em on the plate." "Faster, here." "[bleep]." "Dude, back off." " While some..." " Fruit tart." " Gallop to victory..." " A masterpiece." "Others are crushed by the dreaded pressure test." "It will not happen!" "70 miles north of the MasterChef kitchen, the remaining ten home cooks have arrived on a beautiful California ranch..." "So gorgeous." "For a team competition where the stakes have never been higher." "We are in the middle of no-man's-land, but it's beautiful." "The sky is blue, the grass goes on and on and on, and there's mountains on every side." "It's nothing I've ever seen in Brooklyn." "Wow." "Seeing Christina driving this awesome truck just makes me so excited." "I mean, girl power." "Drive that truck." "Hi, guys." "Let's go." "Whee!" "I can't believe what the judges are wearing." "Gordon Ramsay was made to wear blue jeans." "Right." "How are we?" " Excellent." " Great." "Now, there are just ten of you left, the top ten of MasterChef." "Today, you will split into two teams of five, and you will have to feed 101 very hungry cowboys from this range, and they will be the judges of today's competition." "They will vote to decide which team ends up safe and which team is headed for the slaughterhouse, otherwise known as the MasterChef dreaded pressure test." "I'm the only one out of all these ten competitors that has not won a team challenge." "Claudia curse is over." "I'm winning today." "There's just one protein that can truly satisfy these hungry cowboys:" "steak." "Each team will have to make a steak dish with two sides and one sauce for 101 cowboys." "It is time to lasso up and pick your teams." "Hetal and Katrina, now you guys had the winning dishes in the last challenge, so please, step on up." "I'm pretty sure none of the cowboys want to be fed by the vegetarian." "My confidence for this challenge is not really there." "So, Hetal, since you had the best dish overall in the last challenge, you get the first pick." "Okay." "But you are actually not going to have first pick for your team." "Okay." "You're going to be picking the team for Katrina." "Oh." "And then Katrina will be picking the team for you." "Okay." "Basically, it's reverse world." "If you're picked first, it's actually like getting picked last, so it's, you know, reverse kickball." "Don't be picked first in this challenge." "So this person I'm picking for Katrina's team is someone that I think is a great worker, but it's just, sometimes on team challenges, it's a matter of consistency, and I'm going to give Katrina Claudia." "Claudia." "Wow." "Hetal actually thinks I'm a poor competitor or that I'm not an asset to her team." "I guess it's my job to prove her wrong." "Right, Katrina." "I think I could work with any of these home cooks." "I just personally think that" "I can work with other people better." "And that person is?" " Shelly." " Shelly." "I was on a losing team with Katrina, so I'd rather be with somebody where it's a fresh start and we can only go up." "Okay, second pick." "This person lately, they've been semi-negative about things, and I kind of don't want that on my team." "I want positive, happy thoughts." " Tommy." " Tommy." "Katrina, now you're picking for Hetal again." " Olivia." " Olivia." "Welcome to the Red Team." "Thank you." "Okay, Hetal." "Third pick for Katrina." "Nick." "Wow, interesting." "Nick, welcome to the Blue Team." "Let's go." "Are you crazy?" "Have you lost your mind?" "We need Nick on the Red Team." "We need a man's man." "It's charcoals and fire and cows." "We got Hetal, who's a vegetarian, I'm a pescatarian," "Olivia clearly only eats salads, and then she sends Nick to the other side." "What's the plan?" "Right, Katrina." " Christopher." " Christopher." "Wow." "Thank you." "So, Derrick and Stephen, the last two picks, which basically means you are the strongest two picks." "Derrick, in a perfect world, what team would you like to be on now?" "I would love to work side by side with Katrina." "Interesting." "Hetal, you're picking for both teams now." "Derrick said he wants to work for Katrina, and I'm going to give it to you, basically." "Wow." "I really want Stephen." "He knows how to set up a protein station, and I completely trust that" "Stephen will get the steak right." "Excellent." "Stephen, please pick up your apron." "Thank you." "Both of you, please go join your teams." "Looking at my team, I'm just like..." "Ah." "I'm feeling 100% confident that we're going to win this challenge." "There's one more very important decision that needs to be made." "Both teams have to make a steak dish, but both teams won't be using the same steak." "One team will be cooking with the most amazing New York strip, one of the best cuts of steak anywhere." "The other team will be cooking with a delicious hanger steak." "That's a tough choice." "A choice that, Hetal, you will have to make because you had the best dish in the previous challenge." "Take a minute with your team and decide." "Between the New York steak and the hanger steak," "I don't know what either one is." "I'm the wrong person to make this choice." "Everybody knows New York, right?" "Yes." "Then maybe the New York's the way to go." "But the hanger has a better flavor." "I'm hoping for that New York strip, but there's no chance we would be getting that gift." "So I'm going to choose the hanger steak for my team to cook today." "All right." "Holy cow, you just gave me an extra pot of gold." "Both teams will have just 60 minutes to create a delicious steak entree, two sides, and a sauce for the 101 cowboys and ranchers that are all about to descend upon this place." "Your 60 minutes will start the second that we get into the kitchens." "Both teams ready?" "Yes, Chef." " All right, let's go!" " Whoo!" "Let's go." "I go to my parents' ranch every weekend where we have horses and cattle and goats and chickens, and this is just a little piece of home." "This is amazing!" "Here we go, guys." "Welcome to the kitchens." "Here we go." "Down, please." "Right, let's go." "Take your time, take your time." "Okay, into your kitchens." "Your time starts now." "Let's go!" "Both teams must rapidly devise a menu and a game plan to feed 101 hungry cowboys and cowgirls." "All right, guys." "So, Stephen, you will make the meat." "We're going to make a potato salad." " Yeah." " We're going to do chimichurri." "Why don't we use the chimichurri as, like, the sauce on the salad?" "Yeah, that's a good idea." "I'm going to throw this out there." "I know you guys want to do a chimichurri, but I really think we should do a barbecue sauce." "This is a ranch here, they want something sweet." "Barbecue sauce is one of those things where, like, it's expected, it takes time." "The menu makes no sense." "I know we should do a barbecue sauce." "We're on a ranch for crying out loud." "So we're going to grill zucchini." "Zucchini?" "Come on, now." "These are people with rough hands." "They touch cattle all day." "We're giving them zucchini?" "I don't know where this is going to go, but I hope it all makes sense at the end." " Go Red Team." " Let's go!" " Go Red Team!" "Let's go!" " Let's do it." "Over on the Blue Team, Captain Katrina is thinking outside of the box for their menu." "I want to do a New York strip with a beef demiglace." "I can easily make a sauce." " Okay, whiskey..." " Yeah." "Onions and maybe a little bit of heat, not a lot." "I think we should do white sweet potato mash." "Then we're going to blanch green beans." "I can do the green beans in mushrooms and bacon." "Okay, great." "I know what a cowboy would normally like, but then I'm thinking, maybe they want something fancy but rustic." "Blue Team on three." "One, two, three." "Blue Team." "So, Hetal, tough one." "I mean, she's playing at a disadvantage just by being vegetarian, and she's kind of on her back heel here." "Do you guys do equal parts salt and pepper for the rub?" "Two parts salt, half part pepper." "Got it." "But she ruled the beef Wellington challenge, and she has a strong second-in-command with Stephen." "Stephen, I know, but that's the saving grace in there." "Right." "Now do you think Katrina will be able to lead and communicate?" "Yes." "Yeah." "I mean, she's very honest." "She's brutally honest." "She's not scared of anybody." "And also, she tells the truth." "These can be sliced to save time." "Tommy, did you hear me?" " Yes." " Say yes to me." "Come on." " Okay, I'm on my way." " Over here now." "The Red Team and Blue Team need to understand the market, who they're cooking for." "Smart sides without being too flash, a stunning sauce, and you've got the proteins to nail it." "Yep." "We need 25 steaks on." "Right, Hetal, what's the menu?" "What are you doing?" "I'm doing hanger steak with a chimichurri." "We're doing a warm potato salad and grilled veggies with zucchini, onion, and peppers." "Wow." "When I think about grilled vegetables," "I'll tell the whole Red Team this," "I think about ladies who lunch." "Yup." "I just don't think these cowboys are looking forward to a grilled vegetable side, and it's pretty time-consuming." "Yeah." "Have a quick meeting, rethink this, and get practical." " Okay." "Yes." " Please?" "Okay, I need to figure out what we're going to do." "I'm under pressure." "I have 50 people calling my name." " Hetal." " Hetal." "Each plate gets four potatoes, so we keep it uniformed?" "Um..." "I have Gordon Ramsay yelling at me in one ear." "Hetal, we're feeding the cowboys, not the cows." "My brain is going blank." "I don't know what to do." "There's too much [bleep] going on." "In this team challenge, the home cooks must prepare steak and sides for 101 ranchers and cowboys." "Nick, good on steak." "With the start of service quickly approaching, the Red Team has to rethink their grilled zucchini idea." "Line up the zucchini that we've already cut... where are they?" "It's right there." "I'm just going to sauté it up." "Even though they're all different shapes and ridiculous?" " Is that what you want?" " That's it." "That's it." "We don't have time to break down any other vegetable." "We already have the zucchini cut." "We just need to go with it." "Add some flavor to it." "Make it a little manly." " Fine." " Okay." "As Hetal and her Red Team rush to finish their vegetable side, the Blue Team is full steam ahead on Captain Katrina's unusual menu." " That's good." " Yeah, right?" "Katrina." "Right, menu." "We are doing a New York strip..." " Yes." " With a whiskey demiglace." "Do you think the cowboys want to see a demiglace?" "It's not a wedding reception." "It's just the wrong sauce for the wrong location." "Sure." "Talk to me about the sides." "What are you doing?" " Green beans and bacon..." " Uh-huh." "With a sweet potato mash." "Right." "Sweet potato mash." "It's okay, but it's not everyone's favorite." "They're cowboys." "They want a little bit of oomph." " Get some heat in there." "Yeah?" " Great." "My plan is to take ideas from the judges, communicate it to my team, and change it [snaps] like that." "Derrick, I want you back on sweet potatoes." "I want some cayenne and smoked paprika in there." " Okay, Claudia." " Yes." "We don't want a demiglace." "We want something with heat." "I could do a fire-roasted red pepper sauce." "That's perfect." "Okay, good." "While the Blue Team try to toughen up their side dishes..." "Captain Hetal is struggling to manage the Red Team." "Chris, get on the grill ASAP." "Move to steak right now?" " Please." " All right." "We need Chris to help with the vegetables, and she sends Chris to the grill?" "It makes no sense." "What are you going to do?" " I don't know." " I don't know either." "Not so excited about working with Stephen." "He likes to take control and usurp and just go overboard, and I think he just doesn't like me." " Why don't you, um..." " Yes, tell me, talk to me." "Stand... yeah, okay." "Yeah, what do you want?" "I'll do whatever you want." "I'm here for you." "What do you need?" "Okay, just... just, like, do that for a couple seconds." "Christopher is absolutely right in thinking that I don't want his help because he's always like this, talking, talking, talking." " Yeah." " That one's good." "Well, it's not done, but..." "I just turned those." "I just turned those." "Chris, don't worry about it." "I got it." "The first thing he touched was wrong." "Christopher should go and scrub some dishes or something." "I don't have time to teach people how to cook meat." "You know what, [bleep]." "You guys, we need to stop arguing." "As the tension between Christopher and Stephen boils over on the Red Team..." "Over on the Blue Team..." "I can't see." "The heat of the 700-degree charcoal grill is getting the best of Derrick and Nick." "I need, like, sunglasses or something." "This is crazy." "I'm trying to find the rhythm of these charcoal grills, and it feels like my skin is just burning off." "I think I burnt my eyelid." "That is hot, dude." "Nick and I have to make sure every steak that comes off this grill is cooked perfectly, and this is either going to be our defining moment or our biggest crash." "Ah." "Red Team, Blue Team, the cowboys are arriving." "Guys, look over the hill." "They're coming to you." "Here comes this cavalry of cowboys, and I'm just totally getting into their outfits." "I gotta get some chaps with some fringe, honey." "This way, guys." "Right over here." "Red Team, Blue Team, five minutes until we start serving our cowboys." " Hey." "Olivia." " Yes." " Crank out that batch." " I got two working." "We have five minutes till plating, and we don't even have the zucchini done yet because we waited way too long in between to make a decision, and the pans that we're going to cook the zucchini in" "take a lot more than five minutes to heat up." "This isn't hot at all." "You need help with the zucchini." "I'm going to help you, okay?" "It's going to be fine." "How are we doing, boys?" "Beautiful." "Look at that." "Sexy." "I want a rest time in between, remember that." "Absolutely." "And we're going to do an assembly line." " Do you hear this?" " Yes." "This is a perfect way to work." "Katrina's starting on starch, Tommy on veg, and then me finishing off with their steak and sauce." "Bring it on, cowboys." "Chow bell!" "That's the dinner bell." "Ladies and gentlemen, lunch is served." "Please, make your way to the Red Team and the Blue Team kitchen." "Enjoy." "For service today, the Red Team has made a hanger steak with sautéed zucchini, warm potato salad, and a chimichurri sauce." "The Blue Team is serving a New York strip steak with white sweet potato mash, green beans, and a fire-roasted red pepper sauce." "Good job, Claudia." "The winner of today's challenge will be determined by the 101 cowboys and cowgirls who will taste food from both teams and vote for the dish they prefer." "Hi, we got some steak coming up for you." "Just want to make sure it's perfect." "Once they arrive at the service table, each guest must receive a completed plate." "If not, they will be forced to move on empty-handed, and the vote will be forfeited." "Hetal, it's service time." "Where's the veg?" "Get some some veg, please." "Unfortunately it's not completely cooked." "Hurry up, hurry up, please." "This is, like, half done." " Come on." " Let's go." "Get this in there." "Get this in there and give it to me." "Service starts, and we have no veggie, and out the gate we're putting out empty plates." "Oh, I'm sorry." "I'm so sorry." " I apologize." " I'm so sorry." "Hetal, come here." "We're losing votes by the minute, and there's no zucchini." "We have a line of 100 cowboys waiting for our food." "We need to get this together now." "There's no system here, okay?" "It looks bad." "Hurry up." "Red Team, we're losing votes by the minute, and there's no zucchini." "Is this going to be like a running joke?" "How many vegetarians does it take to put out some vegetables?" "I don't know, but it's getting pretty crazy right now." " Hetal." " Yes?" " Veg in two." " Okay." "It'll be midnight by the time we get these guys served." "Everyone decides that they can't deal with the vegetable because it's, like, too scary, so I'm totally in my zone just trying to sauté ridiculous, watery zucchini because I don't want to lose." "Okay, this is all the veg I have right now." "Got it." "We're good now." "Thank you all for joining us today." "We greatly appreciate your patience while we work through this." "As the Red Team hustles to push out plates and get back in the game, the Blue Team is breezing through their service." "French green beans." "These are French haricots verts." "We have a great system in place, and it's the smoothest service that I can think of." "I just want this momentum to keep on going." "Here you go." "New York strip steak." "Yup." "You hear that?" "They love our color, Nick." "Yeah." "A couple Italian boys on the grill, huh?" "Out in the dining area, Graham checks in with the cowboys to see which team's food they prefer." "You guys have had two steaks now, okay?" "One from the Red Team, one from the Blue Team." "Which one are we leaning towards?" "Oh!" "You weren't able to get the Red steak." "I was all geared up for two steaks." "Right?" "Stephen, steaks please?" "I'm going as fast as I can." "Well, I've never met a steak I didn't like, but I like the Blue Team better." "It was more tender, and I loved the red sauce on it." "Got a New York strip steak here for you." "The sauce for the Red Team was great." "Potatoes were good." "Zucchini was awesome." "Probably the best I've ever had." "More veg coming." "While the cowboys and cowgirls begin to vote for their favorite dishes, back in the Blue Team's kitchen, the stress of service is getting to Derrick." "We're a blue plate behind." "Blue plate behind." "Give me a second." "Where's the blue plate here?" "Blue plate." "Come on, get 'em on there." "Get 'em on the plate." " I am." " Faster, here." " [bleep], guys." " What?" "What's up, Derrick?" " They got plates." " Oh, she has a blue plate." "Derrick, calm down please." "Get in the back." "Derrick's being bullheaded." "He's telling me what to do." "Dude, back off." "When it's your show, let me know." "But today's my day." "How are we doing on steaks?" "Coming in hot, guys." "As Captain Katrina keeps the Blue Team firmly in line..." "Enjoy, sir." "The Red Team comfortably adapts to the pace of service." " Good job." " Thank you guys so much." " Hope you enjoy." " Thank you." "Me and Shelly are working real well together, and everyone seems to be giving us compliments." "This Red Team steak is number one." "Here you go, sir." "Enjoy." "Last ten guests, guys." "The best ten." "Let's go." "Beast mode, baby." "The Red Team's steak was really perfectly done in my opinion, and the sauce was awesome." "The Blue Team's meat was very flavorful." "Nick, you're killing it with these steaks." "The chimichurri sauce for the Red Team was excellent." "I like the blue plate a lot better." "It had a wider variety of flavors that really popped on each one of the items." "Last guests, Red Team." "Let's go." "There you go, sir." "Thank you so much." " Thank you." " Thank you for your patience." "All right, y'all." "Bring it in, come on." " You did an amazing job." " Let's bring it in." "I feel good about the cook." "However, I'm a little nervous about the veggie situation, so we'll see what the ranchers and the cowboys have to say." "What do the judges always tell us?" "The star of the dish is the protein." "Guys, this gentleman's the last meal you're serving." "Give me some love." "Yeah, right?" "Enjoy." "You're the best captain." "I'm so proud of my team." "We served some damn good food, and I feel so confident in what we did that I just know we're going to win." " You guys." " Good job, guys." "With service now complete, the last few cowboys and ranchers are casting their votes, which will determine the winner of today's team challenge." "Ladies and gentlemen, you all cast your votes." "Only one team can be safe from elimination." "The other team will be facing the dreaded pressure test." "I can't say our steak was perfect because I didn't eat it, but from what my team said, I feel good about this." "The winning team that will be saved from elimination..." "We've got this in the bag." "Our plates looked delicious." "My sauce was on point." "I'm just hoping and praying." "With a landslide 50 votes in front, congratulations goes to..." "The Blue Team, ladies and gentlemen!" "Way to go, Blue Team!" "We came and conquered, and we stuck together, and I'm so proud." "Blue Team, congratulations." "Go and say hello to our cowboys and cowgirls." "Well done." "Thank you very much." "I appreciate it." "Red Team, you all face the dreaded pressure test." "Please, carefully jump down and start cleaning both kitchens." "I feel disappointed, and the fact that I failed so bad is killing me inside." "I think God is just continuously punishing me for cooking beef." "And I let my team down." "I didn't give them a direction." "I didn't guide them." "I didn't do what a leader should do." "Instead, I buckled." "Sorry, guys." "Walking to the pressure test, I feel nervous." "The judges thought I would be a good leader, and the fact that I failed so bad is killing me inside." "Line up, please, guys." "Thank you." "Yesterday you all cooked a delicious steak dish for 101 hungry cowboys and ranchers." "Blue Team galloped to victory." "Red Team, you had a very rough ride." "Unfortunately, Red Team, you lost by a huge margin... 50 votes." "And that's why you're standing in front of us, about to face the dreaded pressure test." "There are five of you standing in front of us, but not all of you are going to have to cook in tonight's pressure test." "One of you will be safe." "The decision of which one of you will be saved tonight comes down to... the Blue Team." "Yes." "Blue Team, you will have two minutes to discuss amongst yourselves, then come up with one name from these five home cooks that will not have to face tonight's dreaded pressure test." "Your two minutes to decide starts now." "The Blue Team, they weren't in our kitchen." "They don't know who really deserves it, so I think the Blue Team could go one of three ways." "My initial thought is, save somebody weak." "Let the strong battle each other." "They could choose someone who's weaker so that they could possibly eliminate them later on." "She's won a challenge before." "She's been a good captain." "Someone who's strong, because in the event we have more team challenges, you're going to want a strong cook on your side." "Honestly, I'm kind of on the fence." "I'm good with either choice." "Or someone who has an emotional bond with them all." " So unanimous?" " Unanimous." " Yes." " Cool." "It's a toss-up." "Time up, Blue Team, please." "Thank you." "Katrina, make your way down here please, where you'll hand this one apron to the home cook that is going to be safe tonight." "I tried really hard to make good decisions yesterday, and I don't think that everybody else did." "Off you go." "I will not go home over this." "Olivia, you are now safe." "Please make your way up onto the balcony." " Thank you." " Thank you." "The Blue Team came together and decided on Olivia because, as simple as it is, Olivia's a hell of a team player and we like having her around." "All right, yesterday you were down and dirty, serving rustic food to cowboys, but now it's time to face something much more elegant." "Tonight's pressure test is a beautiful, magnificent fruit tart." "Oh." "You wouldn't see this beauty served on a cattle ranch." "There is so much technique involved." "The pastry shell... it has to be baked just right so that it holds the other elements." "Then comes the custard." "A great custard is about texture and flavor." "And then of course, the crowning glory, the glazed fruit." "Remember, you have to choose the right kind of fruit." "Fruit that is going to go well together." "A great fruit tart is a work of art to look at, and it tastes like... a masterpiece." "Christopher, Shelly, Stephen, that fruit tart is all that stands between you and elimination." "It's time for all of you to head to your stations." "I'm excited that it's dessert and baking." "Yeah, 'cause that's what I love." "I'm a baker." "In front of you, you all have the exact same ingredients to make your fruit tart." "You'll also have access to a limited pantry full of every fruit imaginable." "You can make any kind of fruit tart you want." "There are no limits on your interpretation of this classic dessert." "You'll have 90 minutes to make us an incredible fruit tart or else you could be the one going home." "Is everybody ready?" "Yes, Chef." "Your time starts... now." "90 minutes to perfect the perfect fruit tart." "That's not easy, come on." "Well, a fruit tart is visually perfect..." "Yeah." "And it starts with a perfectly baked tart shell." "Yeah." "You have to get the ratio of butter, flour, sugar, salt just right." "You have to weigh the crust out to make sure that crust is evenly baked." "That pastry cream needs to just be a nice vanilla-scented cream, and it needs to hold its shape when you go to take that slice out, and from there, it's all about the fruit." "You have to be savvy about that fruit looking like little gems perfectly placed on the top, and then my favorite part of a fruit tart is the glaze that goes on top, 'cause that's what really makes the fruit pop." "Uh, so what I'm doing with my fruit tart is a variation on a summer Collins cocktail that I make when I'm working as the bar manager of a restaurant, so it's going to be a lemon pastry cream with strawberries," "blueberries, and a mint glaze on top." "I don't mind Olivia being saved at all." "Obviously I'm a threat, so I'm just putting my best foot forward." " I'm glad you didn't save me." " Why?" "So I don't have to feel bad when I send your ass home." "Such an idiot." "The Blue Team chose to save Olivia." "Interesting choice in my opinion." "Very." "For them the most important thing is that Stephen is still down here, and I don't know if he's got the finesse to perfect a fruit tart." "I'm worried about Shelly." "I'm worried she's going to get some really crazy fruit action from, you know, the Caribbean influence." "Yeah." "We've seen Christopher perfect these fruit tarts" " on a much smaller scale." " Right." "Can he elevate that to something bigger in a 9-inch pan?" "I think he can." "Come on." "All right, Shelly." "Tell me about your tart." "What sort of flavors are you working with?" "You know, I want to go mango with coconut 'cause that's me all day, but I'm nervous about the cutting." "So I'm going to go berries and chocolate because I love chocolate and berries." "Oh, that's smart." "I agree." "And to be honest, if I saw you do mango and coconut," "I'd be like, no, I get it, Shelly, but I've seen those flavors from you." "Bingo, bingo." "So I think this is a really nice flavor combination that shows a little bit more reach." "It looks good." "If it's not velvety smooth, pass it through a sieve." " Okay." " There's still time." "Hetal, how are we doing?" "Good." "I'm making a cardamom crÃ¨me patisserie with berries on top." "Okay." "What's your glaze?" "My glaze is a raspberry with a little bit of rose." " Like rose water?" " Yeah." "Not much." "Yeah, I barely get any coming through, but it's nice." "You don't get any?" "Okay." "Now, there's one home cook tonight that hasn't been in a pressure test yet." "Stephen?" "How do you think he works under pressure?" "Uh, when it comes to baking, I saw him during the pie challenge where he kind of got flustered and wasn't so sure about himself, which is fine by me, because just based on competition," "I want him out of here." " All right, good luck." " Thank you." "I'm choking on nervousness." "Right, Stephen, how are you feeling?" "I feel pretty good." "Your first pressure test." "There's only four of you here." "One in four chance of you going home." "Um, seriously, look at me in the eyes." "Are you pissed that you're not on the balcony?" "'Cause you wanted that pass, didn't you?" "No." " [bleep]." " Ha!" "[bleep] no." "I stand by who I am." " Period." " Bullocks." "Do I still have to whisper?" "No bullocks." "No bullocks here." "I would lose every [bleep] day as opposed to going and taking a victory with Tommy." "No, it will not happen!" "I would lose every [bleep] day as opposed to going and taking a victory with Tommy." "No, it will not happen!" "Why did he have to say my name?" "I don't know." "Who cares?" "I know." "I'm sarcastic." "I'm crass." "But I care, you know, and I want to execute this." "I don't give a [bleep] what you are." "I just want you to cook your heart out and produce a tart." "I'm producing it right now, baby, okay?" "This is going to be a good tart." "Make it the best tart." "It's going to be the [bleep] best." "What's going on back there?" "I hear..." "I told you." "He's cracking under pressure." "He is agitated." "I don't like it when those [bleep] wheels stop turning." "I want the air to go." "Stephen's so angry." "Slow down, slow down." "Do not panic." "Hetal is reenacting what she did yesterday, panicking beyond belief." "There's something about baking challenges with home cooks that have proven their ability with baking." " They lose the focus." " Right." " Oh, [bleep]." " You all right?" "Yeah." "I'm just being an idiot." "Nine minutes to go, guys." "Okay, okay, okay." "By now the tart should be out, and you start that construction process." "Okay." "Yeah, it's cooked through." "Get this done now." "Look at how watery his filling is." "Aw." "Adding too much lemon juice made it..." "Kills it." "Last five minutes." "Good job, Hetal." "Totally fabulous." "Stephen is now taking the tart out of the..." "Ooh." "That's kinda fast." "Aah!" "90 seconds to go." "Coming up to the last minute, guys." "Have to be down on the front bench." "I've never seen Stephen show signs of weakness or defeat, and yet here he is, on the floor crying because his pastry just broke in two." "Really bad for Stephen, all the better for us." "20 seconds to go." "Chris, you got to really get on the gas, dude." "Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one, and stop, guys." "Hands in the air." "Well done, all of you." "This pressure test was one of the hardest things I've done in my life." "It doesn't matter how good you are." "When it comes time for a pressure test, everything you think you know, you're wrong." "All right." "First up, Stephen." "I know I'm going to get reamed for the cracked crust." "I know I'm going to get reamed for the loose pastry cream, but my tart is going to taste good." "All right, Stephen." "What do we have?" "Blueberry tart with some apricot glaze, a little bit of lemon zest, and just a little bit of squeezed kumquat juice for the acid." " Mmm." " Mm-hmm." "How did you find your first pressure test?" "Mm, sickening." "Sickening because of the pressure and the..." "Just how I feel right now, okay." "All right." "I think at face value," "I wish there was more than just blueberries in the tart." "The big thing that you really can't obviously ignore is where some of this tart shell broke apart and some of the pastry cream is starting to come out of the sides." "I'm very curious to taste your pastry cream." "It's definitely not as thick as it really needs to be to show the proper pastry cream technique." "Mm-hmm." " Flavor's there." " Mm-hmm." "It's bright." "It's shiny." "I taste that sort of amalgamation of the different citruses and how they play off of the blueberries, and there are a few cracks in the shell, but it's delicious." "Next up, please, Shelly." "What kind of tart did we make?" "My tart has berries and a classic vanilla pastry cream." "This looks like a really great tart." "Did you glaze the fruit at all?" "A little bit." "That was time." "Yeah, it looks like three or four little berries here and there got some of the love, and the rest are like, crying out." "Pastry cream's a little loose, but that crust looks good." "The, uh, tart shell itself, a little under, you can see on the bottom." "But here on the sides, nice browning." "Overall, good job." "Thank you." "Next up, Christopher." "Let's go, please." "Right, Christopher." "Describe your tart please." "This is a strawberry, blueberry, mint, and lemon tart." "Amazing crunch on the pastry." "Talk to me about the actual pastry cream." "It looks as though my pastry cream didn't set quite as nice as I would have liked it to." "The actual pastry cream..." "runny." "It does taste good, but it just looks a mess." "But I have to say, the shell is incredible." "Have you nailed it?" "No." "Thank you." "Last up, Hetal, please bring your tart up to the front." "All right." "Please describe your tart." "I have a cardamom vanilla pastry cream, raspberry jam for the glaze." "There's a little bit of milk chocolate on the bottom, so it... you don't get a soggy crust." "From face value, it's visually just stunning." "I'd say the baking is a little blonde." "It could have used a little bit more time in the oven to get just a little bit more of that sort of, like, nice golden brown." "Okay." "The crust really shrunk down, and because your crust shrunk, it feels like you have a lot less pastry cream." "Okay." "Love the flavor." "I can taste the cardamom." "I wish that there was more tart shell," " so I had more pastry cream..." " Yeah." "But I definitely see you in this tart, and I feel like I have your voice back again through the food that you're presenting to us, unlike the cattle ranch." "Okay, thank you." "Please, all four of you, come round and stand in front of the bench." "Thank you." "Tough pressure test." "Um, we need a moment right now." "Please, give us some time." "Thank you." "Oh, this is tough." "This is tough." " Super tough." " What are we going to do?" " Oh, God." " You did good." "Pastry uneven, undercooked slightly." "She had the most consistent..." "she didn't perfect anything, but her flaws were miniscule here and there." "So you see why I hate pressure tests?" "You see what I'm talking about?" "Yeah, they're the worst." "I mean, what do you do about that?" "It was, like, on the verge of becoming liquid." "I don't disagree." "Sinking into the pastry cream." "So much is on the line now, and the pressure is like, you know, you could cut it with a knife." "There wasn't, you know, any, like, major defining mistakes between any of them." "We have no choice." "Let's go." "The judges have a tough decision." "I don't really know what's going to happen." "It's a really tough pressure test." "Fruit tart... very technical, a lot of components, and I have to be honest, none of you got all three of those essential components right to make a perfect fruit tart." "Please step forward, Shelly... and Hetal." "Both of you live to see another day." "Please, head up to the balcony." " Thank you, Chef." " Thank you." "Ugh, I got this sinking feeling in my gut, you know, that's just, like, saying," ""I don't know if you're going to make it through this one, Stephen."" "I don't know." "This could be it." "Christopher and Stephen, this is a very difficult decision for all three of us." "It's very rare we come to this T-junction." "Um, one second please." "Um, listen." "I don't think I should be standing here." "The only con I had was a soupy pastry cream." "My crust was the best." "It had the best crunch." "It was cooked perfectly." "My fruit was perfect." "My taste was great." "I have the least amount of cons." "I should be up on the balcony." "Okay, Christopher, Stephen, there's no easy way around this." "I'm going to cut straight to the chase." "I want you both to take your aprons off." "Holy [bleep]." " No." " No way." "It's too close to call." "You're both going up to the balcony." "What?" "Oh, my God." "Get up there before we change our minds." " God." " Oh, my God." "We're both saved." "I'm like..." "My tongue, like, drops to the floor." "I'm just like, man." "What a day." "We've never had a situation in this competition yet that has been that even in terms of highs and lows." "That's never happened in this competition." "You are the top ten." "You all are seriously talented, and every decision from now on in just gets more and more difficult to call." " Got me?" " Yes, Chef." "Good night." "Next week on America's biggest cooking competition..." "You are going to be serving dinner in the MasterChef restaurant." "The top ten team up to cook family style." " What if we're feeding Gordon Ramsay's children?" " Stress!" "And the MasterChef family falls apart." " Chris, that's our dessert." " Get them in!" " Get the chickens in!" "There is no way that we are going to get anything from the Red Team." "This is ridiculous, man." "All ending in the biggest shock of the season." "This is one family... you do not want to let down."
