"But there's one "MasterChef" that really has taken the world by storm." "In 2013, somebody thought it might be interesting to put me in the kitchen with kids." "I thought, "They're out of their minds,"" "and then, this happened." "( Kids screaming )" " Whoa." " Wow." "My kitchen back home is nothing compared to the MasterChef Junior kitchen." "My kitchen is probably, like, five feet." " Awesome." " Welcome, everybody." "Come on down." "MasterChef kitchen is probably, like, the biggest kitchen in the whole world." "It's big." "Really, really big." "Can someone reach the pineapple?" "Avani:" "The MasterChef kitchen is awesome, but everything is huge, enormous." "Gordon:" "With most of our competitors under five feet, we ran into some problems we didn't anticipate." "Oh, my God." "How am I supposed to reach these?" " Oh, why am I so short?" " I'm gonna need a stool." " Where's Riley?" " ( chuckles )" "Put one finger up if that's Riley behind the box." " Okay." " ( laughing )" " Let's go." " Oh, this thing is so heavy."

"Gordon:" "But in the end, what our young chefs lack in size, they more than make up for with the talent they bring to the table." " It's delicious." " You are a small, young man that packs a very powerful punch." "Can I be honest?" "It's delicious." " Thank you." " Mind... (imitates exploding) blown." " Pow." " You might be the youngest here, Abby," " but you've got big, big potential." " Thank you." " Great job." "Amazing." " Thank you." "( All cheering )" " Oh!" " Good job." ""MasterChef Junior" was born in 2013, so, as you can imagine, the kids from that first season aren't quite so little anymore."

"I'm in high school now and I'm studying for my SATs and working really hard on that." "One of the best parts about being on "MasterChef Junior"" "were the friends that I've made, and I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world." " You are definitely a chef in the making, aren't you?" " Yes." "Hi, I'm Alexander, the winner of "Masterchef Junior" season one, and right now I'm in my junior year of high school." "Since being on the show, I've had the opportunity to work in high-end restaurants in New York City and to travel all over the world." "You may want to stand back." "Of course I still want to be a chef later in life after I go through culinary school and hopefully have a restaurant one day." " That's the big dream." " To attempt something as difficult as this." "I love it." "Don't stop." "Great job." "Both:" "Thank you." "Talented kids who aren't kids anymore." "From the very first season of this show, the small, talented home cooks have made me laugh every single day." "They say what they like when they like, and the best thing is, they always tell the truth." "Tonight, voices may be raised, egos may be bruised." "But, it's all in the pursuit of what?"

" That's how you would sell it on the menu?" " Yep." "Ian:" "So it's an apple crostata served with, well, with burnt marshmallows." "My whipped cream turned out bad." "It turned into, like, vomit, so..." "Great way of selling the dish." "Who makes the best chefs?" "Girls or guys?" " Girls." " Okay, why?" "Even in the olden days, they were cooking and men were just sitting there watching TV, no offense to you." "No offense to me?" "Oh, am I from the olden days?" " Yes." " Wow." "I want show you guys that I'm not just a one-legged pony." "I can do..." " A one-legged pony?" "Is that the same as a one-trick pony?" " Yes." " ( groans )" "Where's my basket?" "Jack:" "I definitely want to have a restaurant when I grow up, or be a wrestler." "This challenge is gonna be chaos." "K-A-O-S." "Abby:" "My strategy is just to get..." "I don't really have a strategy." "Chaos." "I'm freaking out!" "Oh, my God." " Are you gonna nail this?" " I think I will." "Good luck." "Um, can you move?" "I'm trying to concentrate." "Wow." "Well, at least Abby was honest."

"And their knowledge, technique, and expertise is way beyond their years." "Ha!" "Aarón:" "I'm utterly blown away by the skill level being presented here." "I'm so impressed." "The best talented 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13-year-olds in the country." "Every year, they're just getting stronger and better and better and better." "They're just incredible."

"When I was little..." "I like that, when you were little." " When did you stop being little?" " I don't know." "Gordon:" "They have skills that are way ahead of their time." "I'm using science in this dish." "I injected my meat with marinade to break down the fibers in the meat to make it more tender." " What are you doing back here?" " He's gone molecular."

"Whether you like it or not, right now you're looking at the future of food." "When you put all that talent together, it produces spectacular dishes." "I have for you risotto with shrimp." "That looks like something you would get at one of my restaurants." "Dara:" "It's a chocolate cake with a spiced cayenne pepper ganache." "This is delicious." "This idea of doing this spiced chocolate, it's brilliant." "Gordon:" "It looks great." "It looks like it sailed out in one of the top Los Angeles sushi restaurants." "Wow."
