[ Thunder crashes ]

[ Witch cackles ]

[ Horse whinnies]
What...the heck?
What?!

Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.
You're so [laughs]

Wait a minute.
What are y'all doing?

Oh, Blake.
He's so cute.
Wait a minute.
What are y'all wearing?

I thought we were dressing up
for Halloween.

I am dressed up as
the winner of "The Voice."

This is
what she looks like.

No, it doesn't.
Oh, my God. [ Laughs ]

[ Horse whinnies]
Blake Shelton!

I was supposed to be the cowboy.
You're always the cowboy.

What are you doing?
I'm the cowboy today.

God.

Look at John's hat.
You know what?

[ Laughter ]

It's authentic.

You ruined Halloween.
Authentic cowboy hat.

Whoa.
Happy Halloween, everybody.

[ Gwen laughs ]
You riding a kangaroo?

[ Whinnies ]
[ Horse whinnies]

[ Cheers and applause ]

* Let's go *

* Hey, hey, hey, hey *

* Hey, hey, let's go *

* Hey, hey, hey, hey *

Let's go!
Yes!

This is our first time ever
doing three-way knockouts.

The stakes are as high
as they could be.

The fact that three artists
are gonna be performing

and we can only choose
one of them...

This is the toughest twist
they've ever thrown at me.

...I've never felt more pressure
as a coach in 22 seasons.

I quit.
[ Tires screech]

I'm quitting the show
right now.

[ Laughter ]

It's really important for me
to get this one-on-one time

with my team.

You gotta be bold about it.

* This is not a circus *

It's really important that all
of these artists showcase

their talents, because it's the
last round before live playoffs.

I want to save!
Somebody give me a save!

Camila: There's only one steal
and no more saves,

so each decision is gonna be
that much tougher.

Your voice brings me to tears.

You made it
really complicated

because that was
a perfect performance.

* Let's go, hey, hey, hey *

Daly:
Whoa! We've got a steal!

Times two!
Wow.

Wait, you pressed, too?!
Oh, my God!

This is gonna be the most
competitive knockouts ever.

**

Yay. Here we go.

It's the first time
we're ever gonna

do these three-way knockouts.

And it sounds like
a brutal idea.

The fact that three artists
are gonna be performing

and we can only choose
one of them?

This sucks.

Alright.
Bring me some singers out here.

Bodie! Kevin? What? What?
How did this happen?

[ Laughs ]
It's all good.

You look good.
You look good.

Dang.
Why'd you do this?

I was just saying
the same thing to myself.

And there's a third one, too.
Who is it?

What in the world?
Come on!

A four-way knockout?

You just put all
my best friends together.

What's crazy about this season
is it's the first time

they've ever done
a three-way knockout...

The Four Musketeers.

...and I'm singing against
Kevin Hawkins and The Dryes.

They are my closest friends
on my team, but they're also

some of the strongest acts
in the whole season.

We've literally helped each
other with our songs already.

All week.
I literally thought
of that scene

and "Get Out" from Jordan Peele
and the lady was like,

"No, no, no, no, no, no."
Ugh.

This is the most pressure
that's ever been...

Yes.
...on the artists in the show,

so welcome to Season 22.
[ Laughter ]

Bodie, Kevin, and The Dryes,
they're all my big vocalists.

That's why they're all three
paired against each other.

It's a lot of pressure, but it's
also gonna be a lot of fun.

Yep.
I actually really enjoy

not having a mentor
this season.

It gives me a chance to
really get to know my
artists better earlier

and have this one-on-one time
that's just so valuable.

The good news is there's
a steal available

and you guys already know

how important
those kind of things are.

Katelyn:
Bryce won the battle,

and then Blake hit
the save button.

Derek: Now we're in
the knockout round up against

two of the best on our team.
John: Four chairs!

We got something to prove,

especially to Blake
for saving us.

Who's singing first?
Is...

I'll go.
Come on, Bodie.

For the knockouts, I'm singing
"Better Now" by Post Malone.

I love this song choice
for you.

This seems like
right down your lane.

* You probably think that you
are better now, better now *

I love Post. He's one of
my biggest influences.

I knew that I needed
to take this song

and kind of flip it
and not sing it just like him

being that
we are a little bit similar.

* Drinkin' Henny
and I'm tryna forget *

It talks about an unhealthy,
painful relationship,

and it just reminds me
of how thankful I am being

with the love of my life
for over 10 years.

Royale: Hi, honey.
You look beautiful.

You look so hot.
[ Both laugh ]

You do, too.

How are the kids?
We can't wait
for you to be home.

We -- We know
you're crushing it.

We have three kids.

She's a musician as well.
She believes in me.

She sees my potential
more than I do.

And I'm gonna win it for her.

* Never let you down,
woulda gave you anything *

Bodie can dip in and out of,
like, R&B, pop, and rap,

and it just works.

I'm like,
"Oh, I'm definitely going home."

When we get back to the hotel,
I gonna go home and cry.

* Whoa *

[ Cheers and applause ]
Yeah!

Crowd goes wild.
Listen to that.
Thanks, guys.

[ Laughter ]

When did you say you came up
with this arrangement, the flip?

The night before rehearsal.
Okay, 'cause it feels

like it's still new
to you.

Yes.
The idea is there,

but you just don't have it
totally dialed in yet.

Blake: Bodie shows me
with each performance

that he's a producer.

He's a writer.
He's very creative.

And that's what I love
about the knockouts.

These artists are coming in

with their own songs
that they picked.

And just like Bodie always does,
he's -- he's taken this song

and he's definitely
making it his own.

Whatever you decide
to flip and -- and change,

please know it as well
as you already know

the Post Malone version
of it.
Okay.

Because the potential's there
for it to be incredible

and -- and blow people away,

but right now it still feels
like it's incomplete.

Should I just sing it straight
the first verse?

Yeah.
Okay.

Maybe it was the fact
that I was singing

five feet away
from Blake Shelton.

He was sitting in
his little director's chair...

Thanks, Blake.
Yeah, buddy.

...but I was definitely
a little bit more nervous

than I normally
would have been.

I just kind of felt
underprepared.

And ultimately, that was
the one note he gave me.

He didn't like it.
[ Chuckles ]

Alright, so what are you gonna
be doing, Kevin?

Well, I'm singing "This Woman's
Work" by Kate Bush,

performing
the Maxwell version.

* I'll stand outside *

* This woman's work *

Blake: I was kind of
looking at the floor
when he started singing,

and I was completely shocked
by what I heard.

My God.

Came right in in his falsetto
singing way up there.

And he just stayed there.

* Father... *

This song is a shout-out
to my mom

and both my grandmothers.

All of them work hard.

My grandmother, she is 94.

She's seen how the world
has transitioned --

women's rights, civil rights --

the things that I hold
near and dear to my heart.

* Ah, whoo *

So that's why I connect
to this song so much.

Wow!
[ Cheers and applause ]

Come on, Kev!
Will you tell
the other coaches

that you didn't have a plan
and I talked to you

into doing the falsetto thing?
[ Laughs ]

It's completely different.
That element alone is exciting.

Part of me thinks
it's too much falsetto,

but then every time
you would do, like, a
thing and it was like,

"Whoa, no, no, no.
It's so good."
Yeah.

* Of the father... *

I'd say if there's more spots
where you can step out

of just staying
in that one spot,

because the amazingness starts
to wear off of it

until you do
a thing again.

Would you like me to drop
into my chest?

I think so.

* Whatever you need me to be *

Whoa!

Katelyn: I'm just somehow
praying that, like,

all three of us stay.
Double steal, maybe?

Oh, Lord.
I don't know.

America is starting
to decide

right now
who their favorites are.

Even though they're
not voting yet,

it's time
to start standing out.

I'll work on it, for sure.
Yeah. Cool. Alright.

You two ready?
Yeah.

What's guitar man gonna do
out here without a guitar?

I don't know.
I know. Isn't it
a cool thing?

* You come over
when your wine's all gone *

* Always catch me
when I'm not that strong *

We're singing
"Chasing After You"

by Maren Morris
and Ryan Hurd.

* Ain't nothin' new *

This is the first time
in 15 years

of us performing together
that I've put down the guitar.

* But I know, yeah, I know
it's a matter of time *

There's no barrier.
I'll just say that much.
We're literally like this.
We're one on one.

When Gwen and I first started
singing "Nobody But You"...

I love that song.
...together, I would
play guitar on it, you know?

And we even did it
on the Grammys.

And I just wasn't
singing it that good.

I wanted to, like, lean in,

so I'll finally ditched
the guitar.

* But I know, yeah, I know
it's a matter of time *

The first time Derek and I
sang together,

we had
just started dating.

Someone in his family
passed away,

and they were like,
"Can you sing in the funeral?"

We performed the song,
and then when we got done,

we were like,
"That was really --

Like, we sound good together."
And it's been like that since.

* Don't know why, don't know why
I let you, but I do *

Blake: This is right in
their wheelhouse.

I mean, they couldn't have
chosen a better song

that's just a layup
for what they do.

* I love chasing after you *

[ Cheers and applause ]
[ Laughs ]

She blows the roof
off the place.

You also blow
the roof off the place.
Yes!

A pleasant surprise for me
in this moment

is that Derek
is a waybetter singer

than I ever
gave him credit for.

It's a different mind-set
once I put down the guitar,

apparently.
Yeah. Oh, my gosh.

Sassy Derek comes out
when the guitar goes off.

[ Laughter ]

The one thing I would say
is your verse,

maybe there's
some melody tweaks

to help you not be
so far down there in the mud.
So low.

But, man, when you guys
sing together? Oh, my gosh.

The Dryes have
some sick harmonies.

Well, come on up here.

And those two combined
are dangerous.

Blake:
It's really good news to know

that everybody
can be stolen here.

It's gonna suck for me,

but it's gonna be great
for you guys, so...

These three artists
are so talented,

but they're all so different.

I don't know how
I'm gonna make this decision.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Competing in this knockout
for Team Blake...

it's Bodie
versus Kevin Hawkins

versus The Dryes!

Oh,
this just got serious!

Kevin out here
looking like Prince!

Oh, yeah.

Yeah! Bodie!

With "Better Now," here's Bodie.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* You probably think that you
are better now, better now *

* You only say that 'cause
I'm not around, not around *

* You know I never meant to
let you down, let you down *

* Woulda gave you anything,
woulda gave you everything *

* Oh-oh *

* I did not believe
that it would end, no *

* Everything came second
to the benzo *

* You're not even speakin'
to my friends, no *

* You knew all my uncles
and my aunts, though *

* 20 candles, blow 'em out
and open your eyes *

* We were lookin' forward
to the rest of our lives *

* Used to keep my picture
posted by your bedside *

* Now it's in your dresser
with the socks you don't like *

* And I'm rollin', rollin',
rollin', rollin' *

Whoo!
* With my brothers
like it's Jonas, Jonas *

* Drinkin' Henny
and I'm tryna forget *

* But I can't get it
outta my head *

* You probably think that you
are better now, better now *

* You only say that 'cause
I'm not around, not around *

* You know I never meant to
let you down, let you down *

* Woulda gave you anything,
woulda gave you everything *

* Oh-oh, and I promise *

* I swear to you, I'll be okay *

* You're only
the love of my life *

Hey!

* You probably
think that you are *

* Better now *

* You only say that
'cause I'm not around *

* You know I never meant to
let you down *

* Woulda gave you anything,
woulda gave you everything *

* You know I say that you
are better now, better now *

* You only say that 'cause
I'm not around, not around *

* You know I never meant to
let you down, let you down *

* Woulda gave you anything,
woulda gave you everything *

* Whoa, oh-oh *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yes, Bodie.

That was so good.
He's talented.

Wow.

Go, Kevin!

Hey!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Let's go!

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back to Night One
of the knockouts.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Let's go!
Alright, Kevin!

Now singing "This Woman's Work,"
here is Kevin Hawkins.

**

* Ahh-haa, ooh *

So beautiful!

* Pray God you can cope *

* I'll stand outside *

* This woman's work,
this woman's world *

* Oooh, it's hard on the man *

* Now his part is over *

* Now starts the craft
of the father *

* I know you've got
a lot of life in you yet *

* I know you've got
a lot of strength left *

* I know you've got
a little life in you yet *

* I know you've got
a lot of strength left *

* My love child *

* I know you've got
a little life in you yet *
* Whatever you need *

* I know you've got
a lot of strength left *
Whoo.

* Give me your hand *

* I know you've got
a little life in you yet *

* Give me your hand *

* I know you've got
a lot of strength left *
* Oooh *

* I should be crying *

* But I just can't
let it show, baby *

* I should be hopin',
but I can't stop thinkin' *

* Yeah *

* Of all the things
we should've said *

* That we never said *

* All the things we should've
done that we never did *

* All the things
that you wanted from me *

* All the things
that you needed from me *

* All the things I should've
given but I didn't *

* Ah, ooh, darling *

* Just let it go *

* Just let it go away *

[ Cheers and applause ]

I like Kevin, too.

So pretty.

The Dryes.
They're dry tonight.

[ Laughs ]

Now with "Chasing After You,"
here are The Dryes.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* You come over
when your wine's all gone *

* Always catch me when
I'm not that strong *

* Then you wind up staying
all night long *

* Ain't nothin' new *

Come on.
Sexy.

* Wish I could quit you,
but it feels too good *

* If I could turn it off,
you know I would *

* But somethin' 'bout you
makes me think we could *

* Make it after all *

* But I know, yeah, I know
it's a matter of time *

* Till you walk, till you walk
back out of my life *

* Leave me standing here lonely,
feeling like a fool *

Really good.

* Every time, every time
you say we're done *

* You come back to the love
you were running from *

* Don't know why, don't know why
I let you, but I do *

* Guess I love
chasing after you *

* But I know, yeah, I know
it's a matter of time *

* Till you walk, till you walk
back out of my life *

* Leave me standing here lonely,
feeling like a fool *

* Yeah, every time, every time
you say we're done *

* You come back to the love
you were running from *

* Don't know why, don't know why
I let you, but I do *

* Guess I love
chasing after you *

* I love chasing after you *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* Oooooh *

**

Oh, my God.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Alright, now.
Gettin' hot in here.

[ Laughs ]

Wow!

This is awful.
You guys all did incredible.

Two of you
were supposed to suck.

[ Laughter ]
Oh, my God.

The Dryes, I don't know

if you guys have been
like little honeymoon-perioding,

but I really felt
the performance.

Like, I was kind of mesmerized
and lost in it.

Kevin, you were hitting
all the right notes,

but I wanted to feel more
from your body language,

from your face.

But I always have thought
that you were a star.

Thank you.

Bodie, I really liked
your arrangement of that song.

Rhythmically,
you were so on point.

Like,
it sounded like a record,

and that's, like,
really hard to do.

I was vibing.
I felt like I was at a concert,

so good luck.

Wait a minute.

You didn't pick anybody.
I'm a little rusty.

It's my first knockout.
How can you be rusty?

You've never even
done it before.

[ Laughter ]

I'd probably pick Bodie,

but then, like, we all have
to steal everybody else.

[ Laughter ]

Well, I am super impressed.

Bodie, doing a Post Malone song
is almost impossible.

Yeah.
But you did.

You have, like, a really
amazing high-low tone.

Everything about your voice
I love so much.
Thank you.

And then to go to Kevin
after that, you look gorgeous.

Thank you.
And to be able to go from those
high notes to the low notes,

it was excellent.

And then The Dryes, you guys,

this was my favorite performance
of yours for sure.

Me too.
Aww, thank you.

Me too, by far.
Thank you.

It's crazy how this show
does that to people.

All of a sudden they go
to another level

you didn't think
they could get to,

probably because Blake's
such a great coach.

I'm sure that's what it is.
Oh.
John: No!

Oh, man.
She's biased.

Bodie,
I loved the song choice,

and I loved
your execution of the song.

I thought you were able to
pull off this rhythmic style

that Post Malone does
but do it in your own way.

Kevin,
I love you as a vocalist.

I just think
you're so good

and you hit everything
and it was beautiful,

but it felt just
a little bit disjointed

because you were going
between your false

and your chest voice
so much.

The Dryes, that low baritone,
you just rocked it.

Sexy!
Yeah.

Appreciate it. Yep.
Exactly. It was, like, sexy
and assured and confident,

and it just felt like
the exact right choice

in this high-stakes moment

to say we deserve to be
in the lives.

Daly: Thank you, Coaches.

Blake, give us some thoughts
on that three-way knockout.

It stings a little bit
to hear what John said,

which he's not wrong.

He's -- He's John Legend.

So...
I could be wrong.

...in rehearsal,
Kevin was probably 80%

in the falsetto,
and I'm the one that said,

"Hey, man, give me some more
of the full voice."

I take responsibility.
That's why that happened.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Thank you. I'm a great man.
I'm a great man.

Camila: Blake taking
responsibility!

Great coach and man.
Thank you very much. Thank you.

And then The Dryes...
What's up, brother?

...this guy who's been

the guitar-player
supporting role in the duo

stepped up
and sang like that.

It's like, what the hell?
Where have you been
hiding all this time?

And then you guys hear
what Katelyn does.

She's unbelievable,

and her range is what I said
it was gonna be.

And then Bodie, I don't think
we've ever seen an artist

quite like you
on this show.

What you're doing live
in the moment

sounds like somebody who's
been jacked with in the studio,

but you do it all alive.

That's what blows us away,
I think.

[ Robotically ]
Are you a robot, Bodie?
Yeah. How do you do that?

It's crazy. And the way you
connect with a song.

It's -- I quit.
I'm quitting the show right now.

After 22 seasons.
Yeah, I know.
You guys broke me.

Give it up for Blake Shelton.
Thank you, Blake.

You three broke me!
I quit!

Bye-bye.

Bye-bye.
It's been a great run.
It's been a great run.

Blake, who do you think
won this knockout?

[ Chuckles ]

**

Winner of this knockout
is Bodie.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Daly: Bodie, congratulations!

You are moving on
to the live playoffs!

I tell you, I did not make
these three-way knockouts easy.

Happy for you.
Thank you.

Yes, sir.
But at the end of the day,

Bodie just has something really
special about what he does.

There's nobody like Bodie
on the show,

and he's on Team Blake.

Alright. That leaves these two
artists available to steal.

So we're gonna talk
to each of you one by one.

Anything you guys
want to say to Blake?

This opportunity
has been amazing

for the both of us,
and...

we're not gonna stop
what we're doing, you know?

We're gonna keep
doing The Dryes.

Thank you guys
so much.
Thanks.

Fantastic.

For the live playoffs, I'm
hoping to build a team of people

that give
really exciting performances

and this was
a really great performance,

but I didn't steal The Dryes

because I haven't consistently
seen them wow me.

Kevin, anything you want
to say to Blake?

Blake, thank you
for this moment.

I will never take it for granted
for the rest of my life,

and I'm going to keep going
no matter what happens.

So, thank you.
You have to!

Give it up one more time

for Kevin Hawkins,
ladies and gentlemen.

Thank you, Kevin.

**

Whoa! A double!
Daly: Oh! We've got a steal!

I have to!
He's so good!

**

Wait, you pressed, too?
Camila: I pressed, too.

Oh, my God!
I impulse did it.

I could not see you walk out
of this show.
I did, too!

Your performance for me
was flawless.

Just everything
about your style...

Thank you.
...just your energy.

I think we would
be great together.

[ Cheers and applause ]

I've always thought that you had
a crazy star power.

When you sing something and I
feel something in my heart,

I can't let somebody
like that go

'cause I like people
that are the whole package.

Thank you.

Alright, Kevin, who do you
select as your new coach?

[ Audience shouting ]

Um...

**

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the knockouts

at Universal Studios Hollywood.

Alright, Kevin, who do you
select as your new coach?

[ Audience shouting ]

Kevin: Um...

**

Gwen, you were the first one
to turn around for me,

so I'm going with you.
Okay, yes!

Gwen Stefani
steals Kevin Hawkins.

I've had my eye out for Kevin
since the blinds.

I actually blocked John,
and I didn't even get him then.

He has such control
over his voice.

I think America is going to see
that Kevin

is one of the strongest singers
in this whole competition.

I loved everything.

You love what?

Oh!
[ Both laugh ]

I'm excited that you chose me.
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much.

You turned around for me.
Like, it means everything.

Thank you so much.
Oh, no. I'm so excited.

**

What up, guys?

This is the first day ever

of three-way knockouts.

I'm excited to see what songs

my artists are gonna pick.

It's gonna tell me a lot about

who they see themselves as.

Wish me luck.
Man: 30 seconds out.
30 seconds.

It's gonna be really fun
in this round

to get one-on-one time
with each artist.

Alright.
So check it out.

We're here
before knockout rehearsals.

Everything's super quiet,
hush-hush today

'cause we get to find out
who we're going up against.

I have no idea who I am going to
be up against. Eek!

Anyone that I'm gonna see
out there,

it's gonna be a threat.

Hey, guys, Come on in!

Here we go.

Hi!
Hi!

Oh! Dang! [ Laughs ]
Oh, no!

I love you! No!
I love you more.

Camila paired me with Orlando,

and I've loved Orlando
since day one.

That is such a you reaction.
"No, I love you!"

Orlando:
Honestly, Morgan has one
of the most incredible voices

I've ever heard, but we're here
to compete, you know?

I'm going for the win
all the way.

Do you guys want to see
who your third is?

I can't take any more,
but yeah.

It's not the violin.
It's the...
[ Laughs ]

...Chello!
Aah!

What is up?
What is up?
Orlando: What's up, brother?

Oh, my goodness.
With this knockout,
I grouped together

Chello, Morgan, and Orlando.

Oh, man.
Wow.

They have such
different strengths,

and I'm excited to see
what they learn from each other.

John: Four chairs.
Going into the live playoffs,

it's not really enough anymore
to just be a talented vocalist.

It's about heart and spirit
and guts.

Let's, Mor!
What's song
are you singing?

"What the World Needs Now
Is Love"

by Jackie DeShannon.

Ooh!
It's a classic,
but it's so poignant

with what's going on
in the world right now.

Yes.
You know, music is therapy.
It is healing.

Yes. Everything you sing is
really authentic to you.

And I would love for people
to know that about you.

* What the world needs now
is love, sweet love *

Whoo!
I think Morgan has one of
the best voices this season.

I see somebody that
doesn't want to be put in a box,

somebody that has a vision
of who they are.

I think people are gonna
fall in love with her

because she's just real.

* If you want to know
what the... *

I've been
touring professionally

for the last seven years.

I worked so hard and still want
to get to a different level.

* Needs now *

I would absolutely love
to make the live shows.

This song showcases
what I want to say.

I'm on this
wild roller coaster.

And when you get those
little moments of love,

you're going, "Okay.
I needed that. Thank you."

And you keep going.

* Everyone *

Camila:
I love that she's showcasing

a different side of her voice.

It's more soulful.

It just shows the versatility

she has as an artist
and as a singer.

Whoo!
That is gorgeous.

How did that feel
for you?

Good.
I just get nervous.

Yeah, that's --
that's normal.

And also, without the energy
of the crowd,

which I feel like is something
that you really thrive off.
Mm-hmm. I feed off.

Yes, I do.

Once the crowd is there,
you're like, "Yeah!"

Watching Morgan rehearse,

my arm was immediately like,
boom, goosebumps.

So it's gonna be
a challenge for sure.

Visually, you want to be focused
on everything being executed

in a way
that exudes confidence.
Confidence.

So the more that you
can go into like

these moments and like...

Yeah.
You know what I mean?

Like, more into
mike stand moments of just

like this stuff and like --
Do you know what I mean?
Yes. Yes.

Like, really getting
into that, because the more

that you match the diva emotion
of your voice...
With my body.

...I think it'll make it
a masterful performance.

I think for this knockout
to make it to the live shows,

I could tell that
she was more nervous today

than I've seen her before.

Practice in front of the mirror
like 10 times and then...
Yep. I agree.

...like, just be
weird and be you,

which you already
are weird and you.
Yes, yes. Very true.

What I really love
about Camila,

she understands
where we're coming from.

I got some mental health
hacks for you.

It was just fun
having a real heart to heart.

I was like, "Yes, girl."
I need that feedback, you know?

Chelly, Chelly, Chelly.
What's up?

Oh!
Ooh, what's this?

What is that?
Oh, I just had this,
you know.

Have I ever
seen you play guitar?

I don't think you have.
What song are you singing?

"Hold On"
by Justin Bieber.

This song in particular
I think is something I would

more aspire to align with,
like, artistically.

Oh.
The song he auditioned with...

* Just the two of us,
we can make it if we tried *

...to the song he's doing now
could not be more different.

I think such
a big part of Chello

is the way he expresses
himself through his body.

But I think playing guitar could
also be a fun chance for him

to just focus
on the delivery of his voice.

* Midnight till morning,
call if you need somebody *

* I will be there for you *
Hey!

There's a lot of themes of,
like,

selflessness
throughout this song.

Like, you know you can call me
if you need someone.

The person that acted
that way for me

was definitely my grandma.

My grandma became my babysitter
since I was like five.

Woman: Hearing your little
feet coming down the steps

was the highlight of my day,
knowing you were around.

Growing up, my grandma really
was kind of my best friend.

Grandma, are you gonna
spin your chair for me?

[ Laughs ]

* Hold on, tell me everything
that you need to say *
Whoo!

I love that you went
for versatility on this.

That rhythmic section
sounds so good on you.

* Midnight till morning *

You don't need to be
trying

to do all of these
long high belting notes

because that's not

why I gravitated towards you
as an artist.

Like, be Chello.

I lower keys
all the time,

and it's not because
I can't reach the notes,

but because maybe my voice
just sounds more pleasant.

Right.
Do you want to try it
down a half step?

Sure.
* If you need someone *

Whoo-hoo!

Orlando: Chello is a vibe.

He's got a great personality

and then he's got this voice
which just screams like popstar.

Wasn't that way better?

Sounds awesome. Yeah.
Like, you sound so sultry.

I feel like the stakes
are definitely getting higher.

This knockout round
is gonna be tough.

Camila: Yay!
Get up here right now.

This would be the end
for a lot of us. It's on.

Daly: Still to come in
the premiere of the knockouts...

* What the world needs now *
...the artists step it up

for a shot
at the live playoffs...

* I went skydivin' **

* I was just *

Yeah!
* I was just
sittin' here thinking *

Yes!
What the hell?

I felt like a star was born.

Daly: ...leading to
gut-wrenching decisions

for our coaches.

Carson,
this is really hard.

This is a very,
very tough decision.

Yes!
Daly: We've got a steal!

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

What are you singing?
What's up?

So I'm singing "Live Like
You Were Dying" by Tim McGraw.

Wow,
I love these lyrics!

* He said,
"I was in my early 40s *

* With a lot of life
before me" *

Recently, this song has
a different meaning to me.

I, uh -- I lost my uncle
about three weeks ago.

I'm so sorry,
Orlando.

I just want to do this song
as -- as a tribute to him.

My uncle was one of my biggest
inspirations to be a singer.

He studied music in college.
He always played piano.

He wanted to hear every detail
about every gig.

And then when I finally got
the opportunity to come out here

for "The Voice,"
he was in a bad spot.

He spent a couple days
without even opening his eyes.

And I remember when they put
the phone in front of him

and told him
I had turned four chairs,

he opened his eyes [chuckles]

and he started smiling.

**

And, um...

and a tear rolled down his face.

**

My uncle perfectly embodied
what this song is about.

If we focused a little more
on the beautiful parts of life,

appreciating every day, man,
how much happier we would be?

* I went skydivin',
I went... *

Orlando has such
a swagger to his voice,

and he's also so emotional.

He's the whole package, too,
in terms of performing.

Hey!

* To live like you were dying *

Whoo!

Whoo!
Ooh! Orlando!

Ow!
Wow.

Aw, come here, bro.
[ Chuckles ]

Mmm!

I know it takes a lot
to sing this song.

I've had a song
about my dad,

and I literally could not
sing it without crying.

I mean, the weight of
that emotion is driving you.

For sure.
It's powerful.

If there's a note where you can
go into that -- a falsetto,

I feel like that would be cool.
Like the...

* Dying *

* Dying *

Yeah, that. I think is such
a special thing that you can do.

Appreciate it.
Being vulnerable
and sharing that,

like, through these words.

It's looking like this
is gonna be Orlando's

strongest performance.

He really is pouring his heart
into this song.

This is gonna be
really beautiful.

I can't wait.
I think it's gonna make

for a really
special performance.

Thank you so much.
Yay! Group hug!

Guys, I'm really excited.
You're the best!

Only one out of three
are gonna make it

through to the live shows.

I'm looking for unique
stand-out artists.

I want just firecracker
performances.
Bye, guys.

Thank you! Bye!
Thank you so much.

I think it's gonna be
a tough decision.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Competing in
this Team Camila knockout,

it's Chello...

Chello:
The more you move forward,

the higher the pressure
and I could get sent home.

I definitely want to stay here.

I really want to go to lives.

...versus Morgan Myles...

Morgan:
This setup, it's extreme.

Two people get knocked out
of the three.

I just gotta deliver the goods
and I'm going to.

Here we go.

...versus Orlando Mendez!

Orlando: A win in the knockouts
would be huge.

I'm gonna go out there,
put on a tribute for my uncle,

who I love so much,
and hopefully honor him

the best way possible.

Chello!

Chello!

With "Hold On," here's Chello.

**

Hey.

**

* You know you can call me
if you need someone *

**

* I'll pick up the pieces
when you come undone *

* Painting stars
up on your ceiling *

* 'Cause you wish that
you could find some feeling *

* Yeah, you, you know you could
call me if you need someone *

* I need you to hold on *

* Heaven is a place
not too far away *

* We all know I should
be the one to say *

* We all make mistakes *

* We all make mistakes *

* Take my hand and hold on *

that you need to say *

feels to be someone *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* I will be there
for you *

Chello!

Morgan!

Hi!

Now singing "What the World
Needs Now Is Love,"

here is Morgan Myles.

**

* What the world needs now *

* Is love, sweet love *

* It's the only thing *

* That there's
just too little of *

* What the world needs now *

* Is love, sweet love *

* No, not just for some *

* But for everyone *

* Lord, we don't need
another meadow *

* There are corn fields
and wheat fields *

* Enough to grow *

* There are sunbeams
and moonbeams *

* Enough to shine *

* Oh, listen, Lord *

* If you want to know *
[ Cheers and applause ]

* What the world needs now *

* Is love, sweet love *

* It's the only thing that
there's just too little of *

* What the world needs now, yes,
is love, sweet love *

* No, not just for some *

* But for everyone *

[ Cheers and applause ]
* Who-o-o-o-o-o *

* No, not just for some *

* But for everyone *

**

* What the world *

**

* What the world needs now *

* Is love *

Whoo!

* Sweet, sweet love *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yeah.
Yeah!

That's country
right there.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back to Night One
of the knockouts.

[ Cheers and applause ]

That's a country right there.
Blake: That's country.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Daly: Now with
"Live Like You Were Dying,"

here's Orlando Mendez.

**

* He said,
"I was in my early 40s *

* With a lot of life before me *

* When a moment came
that stopped me on a dime" *

**

* "I spent most
of the next days *

* Lookin' at the X-rays *

* And talkin' 'bout
the options *

* And talkin' 'bout
sweet time" *

* I asked him when it sank in *

* That this might
really be the real end *

* "How's it hit ya when
you get that kind of news?" *

Here we go.
* "Man, what ya do?" *

* And he said *

* "I went skydivin' *

* I went
Rocky Mountain climbin' *

* I went 2.7 seconds
on a bull name Fu Manchu *

* And I loved deeper *

* And I spoke sweeter *

* And I gave forgiveness
I've been denying" *

* And he said, "Someday I hope
you get the chance *

* To live like
you were dyin'" *

Come on!
Whoo!

* Oh, whoa *

* "I loved deeper *

* And I spoke sweeter *

* And I watched an eagle
as it was flyin' *

* Man, I hope
you get the chance *

* To live like you were dyin' *

* To live like
you were dy-y-y-y-yin'" *

Come on!

* Yeah, yeah, yeah *

* Yeah *

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

Whoo!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yeah!

Camila!

That's my team!
Yes!

Wow, you guys!
Whoo!

It's really fun to see

what you produced here
with your coaching.

Well, I mean, really,
it was them,

but they are my team.

Look how proud she is.

It's so cute.
So cute.

Chello, such a different
performance from the last.

I think that, once in a while,
there were some tuning stuff,

but I thought it was
a really smart choice

to do a song like that,

to just show like
a different side to you.
Thank you.

Morgan,
I got blocked by Camila,

so I didn't get you
on my team.

But this is my chance to coach
you for a minute, right?
What?

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Just a little bit, right?

You are incredible on stage
with your presence.

Some of the movements,
it was like every lyric,

and it goes a little pageant-y,
which you're not.

Orlando,
I really liked that performance.

I really believed the lyrics
through your facial expressions.

You're not faking it.
Thank you so much.

Orlando's stole this knockout
for me.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Chello, I really love
this type of song for you.

Your vocal performance
was really disciplined,

and I felt like overall

it's been my favorite
performance of yours.
Thank you.

Orlando, you seemed so
in your element, so passionate.

It could have been
a little "singy-er."

And that's just my taste.

I'm like an R&B crooner,
so I like a little croon.

[ Laughter ]

And it felt like
you were almost pushing it

a little too much
with the yell,

but, uh, I was willing
to forgive that anyway.

It just felt like
you were doing

what you were
supposed to be doing.

Thank you so much, John.

Yeah, I feel similar.

Orlando went a little
Nicolas Cage there

towards the end,
didn't he?

[ Laughter ]
What does that mean?

You ever seen Nicolas Cage
scream in his movies?

He's, "Aaaaah!"
That's what he was going for.

But listening to the message
of the song,

I mean, you were definitely
giving it everything you had.

It was damn good,

even though you passed on me
as your coach.

What the hell
is wrong with you?
[ Laughter ]

Morgan, I mean, I don't want
to keep picking on you.

Beatin' me up?
[ Laughs ]

But here's one more punch!
No.

I do think Morgan's performance
vocally was --

Very strong.
It was incredible.

I just think that
if the world needs love,

there was a lot
of tough love.

The world needs
some tough love

is what you were
giving us, I guess.

Knockouts.
[ Laughs ]

It's the knockouts.
That's right.

But I mean, to me,
it's between Morgan and Orlando,

and I don't know --
what the hell, just to make it

more complicated,
I'm gonna go with Morgan.

Alright, Camila, give us
some thoughts on that knockout

and then tell us
who won.

Orlando, this song has
a special meaning for him,

and it's really cool
because they don't even know

what you were thinking of,

but they all picked up
on this visceral connection.

[ Applause ]
Mm-hmm.

And, Morgan!

[ Both laugh ]
You're like...

No, I'm actually -- I'm gonna
beat myself up a little bit.

When you were giving
the big hand gestures

and -- and --
and punching the air,

I might have led her astray
in that way because that was me.

I told her to do that.
[ Laughter ]

well, no, I think a little goes
a long way with that.

Yeah.
That's all I was --

I wasn't saying
it was all bad.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I thought it was actually --

A lot of it
was incredible.
Yeah.

You have an incredible
capacity to transmit feeling.

Thank you.

Hey, Chello!
Hi. How are you?

You look so adorable today.
I love your outfit.
Thank you.

So do you.
I like your outfit, too.

You're so unique.

There's nobody else
like you, period.

Like, your tone of voice,
your choices.

Like, I think it's very easy
for people to fall in love

with the whole package of you.
Thank you.

Alright, Camila, who is
the winner of this knockout?

Um...

Okay.

This is a very,
very tough decision.

Like, I wish I could save
one of you guys.

Two of you guys.

I wish I could just
save you guys.

[ Laughter ]
Um...

So just know it's a very close,
close, close call.

But the winner of this knockout
is Morgan.

Oh, my...

Daly: Morgan Myles,
congratulations!

You're moving on
to the live playoffs.
I'm getting in here.
I'm getting in here.

These decisions are so tough
because I can only pick one.

Even though everybody
did their best

and everybody's so talented.
I love you!

Chello and Orlando
killed it,

but I just had
to go with Morgan.

There's nothing she can't do,

and I honestly feel like
she could win this season.

She's just such a true artist.

Yeah, Chello!
Give it up for Chello,
ladies and gentlemen.

Thank you, Chello.

John: I only have one steal,
and I'm gonna be picky.

I want somebody to inspire me.

Knock my socks off.
You did a great job.

I thought Orlando gave the best
performance during this round,

but I think Morgan
has been consistently

a better performer
throughout the season.

* What the world
needs now *

* Is love, sweet love *

[ Laughter ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back to
the premiere of the knockouts.

Parijita: Hey!
Parijita, how are you?

I'm good. How are you?
Good.

Look who else is here.

Shut up! Valarie!
Valarie.

[ Chuckles ]
Hey, my dear.
How are you? I knew it.

I had a little feeling
it was gonna be Valarie,

because we both have, like, kind
of a similar genre of music.

So do you want to meet
your third person?

Wha--
[ Laughs ]
Hi, Peyton!

It's my girls,
right there.
Welcome, Peyton.

How are y'all?
Hey, bro. Good.

But I wasn't expecting Peyton.

I mean, he's like country.
Like, come on.

It's an honor for John

to have thought
that I was capable of singing

and performing with two amazing,
amazing singers.

We had an adviser, uh,
in the battle rounds,

but this is so important to me
that I want to work

with you one-on-one
and get this exactly right.

Parijita, Valarie, and Peyton.

I put them together because
they're all kind of right there.

They're so close
to being exactly

who they need to be as artists.

I can't save anybody.

So the competition is tough.

I want to see who steps up
to go to the live rounds.

Parijita, talk to me.
Hey!

What song did you choose
and why did you choose it?

I chose "I'd Rather Go Blind"
by Etta James.

I literally grew up
listening to this song.

My first record, album ever was
Etta James' greatest hits.

Amazing.
And it was in the back

of the office
of my parents' restaurant,

and that's where I had my record
player, my little keyboard.

Parijita: My parents owned
a very small restaurant.

I spent a lot of time in there

'cause they were working
like 12, 13 hours a day.

[ Hands drumming ]
* Hello from the other side *

Everything that I've learned
from my parents,

that work ethic, is something
that I'm gonna be implementing

into my performance
for the knockouts.

* Somethin' told me *

* It was over *

Sing, girl.

Valarie: Parijita's voice
is just smooth and it's sultry.

It's just easy on the ears.

* I was just, I was just *

John: Parijita is really good
in this style of music.

She's soulful.
She's heartfelt.

She feels the emotion
of the song.

I love that our young people are
still holding on to this music

that's meant so much to
so many people over the years.

Who knew that there were,
you know,

high-school kids
over in Maryland singing blues?

* Me *

Whoo!
Valarie: Yes, ma'am.

Yes, ma'am. Whoo!
Beautiful!

I love the emotion
that you're putting into it.

If there's anything
I want you to focus on,

making sure you knock it
out of the park

is those big notes
at the end.
Yep.

Like, I want you to hit them,
like, with as much confidence

and as much diaphragm
to really sell it at the end.

I am 17 years old
and still in high school,

so it is an honor
to have John Legend critique me.

It's helping me
motivate myself

to do the song
the best that I can

so that I can make it
to the live rounds.

Hello, Valarie.
Ooh! Hi!

So, I chose "Weak"
by SWV.

Ohh!
Taking me back.

And I grew up
in the '90s.

I listened to SWV
all the time.

I wore their
cassette tape out.

We're around the same age,
so I-I-I was

a very big fan
of SWV as well.

Also, the song, you know,
reminds me kind of my husband

'cause my --
when I first met him...

Oh! Alright, now!
[ Laughs ]

...you know, he made me weak
and gave me butterflies.

Okay!
And he still does.

* I don't know what it is
that you've done to me *

My husband was the guy
when we first met

that would open up doors for me,
pull my chair out for me to sit.

So that right there was like,
"Oh, okay!

Well, I could get used to this."
[ Laughs ]

I'm dedicating this song
to you

'cause you make me
weak in the knees.

[ Laughs ]

Same here.
Same for me.

Oh, I make you
weak in the knees, too?

Something I've been meaning
to tell you.

[ Laughs ]

Good luck,
and we love you here at home.

Bye. Mwah!

* I get so weak in the knees,
I can hardly speak *

Peyton: Valarie is the most
soulful person I know.

Man, she can sing.
When she turns on them jets,

man, you ain't stoppin' her.

* Me-e-e-e-e-e-e-e *

Whoo!
John: That's it!

That's it.
Oh, my lord!

I like how you're sounding
in the low notes,

and then building
and building and building.

There's only one melody
I might change.
Okay.

* When the cause and cure
is you *

Maybe go up on
"when the cause and cure."

* Cause and cure is you *

Yeah, something like that.
Okay.

I'm 41 years old, and to be able
to make it to the lives,

it'll mean everything to me.

Thank you so much.
Thank you.

[ Voice breaking ]
I've worked hard to get here

for a long time,
so I'm grateful.

I'm grateful.

These ladies out here
singing, Peyton.

I know, right?
How you doing, sir?

Doing good, buddy.
How about you?
I'm doing alright.

Everybody's singing
a different style of song.

I want to know
what you're singing.

I am singing "Forever After All"
by Luke Combs.

Luke Combs.
We're gonna do some country.

I chose it, man,
because I'm a family guy.

Been gone from my family, and I
just want to let them know that,

"Hey, I'm out here
and I still love you, baby."

I'm sure they're
all proud of you.
I hope so.

They better be.
[ Laughs ]

They better be!

* A cold beer's got 12 ounces *

My wife's name is Lauren.
I've been married for six years.

We have two kids together.

For me to show them
and sing to them

exactly how much
they mean to me

and how much I love them
means the world to me.

* They say nothing
lasts forever *

John: I love coaching
a country artist.

I feel like there's
so much spiritual

and cultural connection
between country and R&B.

* By their side *
Yeah!

Peyton's voice, I think
it's so soulful and powerful.

And I love the grit in his
voice. He's a special singer.

* Ohhh *

-Whoo!
-Okay!

Hoo!
John: Wow.

Only thing
I would say is the ending,

I want it to sound
a little more, like, firm.

Beefier? Yep.
Yeah.

And then do some
melody changes

at the beginning
when it's so low...

Okay.
...to maybe make it
a little more comfortable.

Yeah. Sure.
'Cause once you kick it in,
like, your -- your big notes

are just gorgeous.
I appreciate it.

John: I love working one-on-one
with these artists.

Honestly, I think
this is my closest pairing.

I think each of them
could possibly win,

and I kind of did it
on purpose.

I wanted each of them
to prove themselves to me.

I want to see who steps up

and gives me
an incredible performance.

Oh, I love my team!

[ Laughter ]

Valarie: I do, too.

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the knockouts.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Parijita!

[ Cheers and applause ]

With "I'd Rather Go Blind,"
here is Parijita Bastola.

**

* Somethin' told me
it was over *

Yeah.

* When I saw you
and that girl walking *

* Somethin' deep down in my soul
said, 'Cry, girl' *

* When I saw you and that girl
walking around *

* I would rather, I would rather
go blind, boy *

* Than to see you
walk away from me, child *

* So you see,
I love you so much *

* That I don't want to watch you
leave me, baby *

* Most of all I just don't *

* I just don't want
to be free, no *

* I was just, I was just *

* I was just sitting here
thinking *

Yeah!

* Of your kiss
and your warm embrace *

* Yeah *

* And, baby *

* And, baby, baby *

* I'd rather be blind, boy *

* Than to see you walk away *

* Walk away from me-e-e-e *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Beautiful!
Beautiful!

Yes, Parijita!

Beautiful!

Wow.
It was crazy good.

[ Cheers and applause ]

And now with
"Forever After All,"

here's Peyton Aldridge.

**

* A cold beer's got 12 ounces *

* A good truck's got maybe
three hundred thousand *

* You only get so much
till it's gone *

* Duracells in a Maglite *

* A needle drop on a 45 *

* Are the kinda things
that only last so long *

* When the new wears off
and they get to getting old *

* Sooner or later,
time's gonna take its toll *

* They say
nothing lasts forever *

* But they ain't seen
us together *

* Or the way the moonlight
dances in your eyes *

* With just a T-shirt
in the kitchen *

* And with no makeup
and a million other things *

* That I could look at
my whole life *

* Well, a love like that makes
a man have second thoughts *

* Well, maybe some things
last forever after all-l-l-l *

* Yeah *

Hey!

* And I know
there'll be that moment *

* The good Lord calls
one of us home and *

* And one won't have the other
by their side *

* But heaven knows
that won't last too long *

* Well, maybe some things
last forever after all *

That was beautiful!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Killed it. He did.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Let's get it, Val!
Let's get it!

* Can't explain why
your loving makes me *
Daly: Coming up,
Valarie brings down the house.

* Weak *
Yeah, Valarie.

Daly: And later...
You're letting them
in your soul.

And you gotta be dramatic
about it.

* When will you realize *

...Gwen prepares her team
for shocking performances.

* When we know that
we're not happy here *

Whoo!

* Hey ya *

Gwen: Yes!
Daly: We got a steal!

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back to Night One
of the knockouts.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yes!

Now with "Weak,"
here's Valarie Harding.

**

* I don't know what it is
that you've done to me *

* But it's caused me to act
in such a crazy way *

* Whatever it is that you do
when you do what you're doing *

* It's a feeling
that I want to stay *

* 'Cause my heart starts beating
triple time *

* With thoughts of loving you
on my mind *

* I can't figure out
just what to do *

* When the cause and cure
is you *

* Whoa *

* I get so weak in the knees *

* I can hardly speak *

* I lose all control *

* And something takes over me *

* In a daze,
and it's so amazing *

* It's not a phase *

* I want you to stay with me *

* By my side,
I swallow my pride *

* Your love is so sweet *

* It knocks me
right off of my feet *

* Yeah *

* Can't explain why
your loving makes me weak *

* I get so weak *

* Something about
the way you do *

* The things you do-oo-oo it *

* Knocks me, yeah,
right off my feet *

* I can't explain *

* Why your loving
makes me weak *

* I can't explain *

* Why your loving makes *

* Me weak *

[ Cheers and applause ]
Yeah, Valarie.

Yes.

You did good.
Thank you.

So, so good.

I'm so glad that I get to be
the one to say to the crowd,

one of those three people
is 17 years old.

[ Cheers and applause ]
Yes, she is.

It's like you've been doing this
for 20 years.

You don't just tell
the story vocally,

but you're telling the story
with your body language.
Yeah.

And I'm just
blown away by you.
Thank you, Blake.

Peyton, you sang the hell
out of that song.

I mean, it was so good.
John: Mm-hmm.

I appreciate it.
Thank you, Blake. Thank you.

Yes, sir.

But I felt like your
body language onstage

was a little bit like,
"I don't know what to do.

I'm just gonna walk
back and forth."

And then, Valarie,
you probably had the most solid

all-around
vocal performance.

But I'm just never gonna get
over the Parijita thing,

so I would probably be going
with Parijita on this one.

Thank you, Blake.

Parijita, my thought was like,
"Who hurt Parijita?"

[ Laughter ]

'Cause, like,
he just messed you up.

I felt like I just saw
a maturity

and a fire
that I was like, "Yeah!"

I like when Parijita's all,
like, fired up like that.

Thank you, Camila.

Valarie, I loved
your performance

'cause I love that song.

When you sang the melody,
I was like, "Oh!"

Like, her voice and her tone
sounds so rich and beautiful.

Thank you.
I really don't know
what you're gonna do.

You're not gonna help me,
Camila Cabello?

Based on this performance,
I would choose Parijita.

Okay.

Parijita, I can't understand
that you're 17

and that you're --
you're so in your body,

in your mind,
your heart, your voice.

Everything about you
is just really impressive.

I appreciate you.
Thank you.
Yes.

Peyton, your vocals
were so beautiful.

Sometimes you do these little,
like, curly waves.

I don't know
how to describe it.

Curly fries is what I call it.
Gwen: Yeah, curly fries.

[ Laughter ]
Curly fries!

I feel like you do
too many curls.

I would save them up
'cause they're special,

to, like, certain moments.

That would help a lot,
I think.

'Cause your vocal
is ridiculous.

Yes, ma'am.
Thank you so much.

Valarie, you sound incredible,
especially those high notes.

One thing I would say

that sometimes going down
into the lower notes,

you weren't hitting
right on.

But honestly,
I enjoyed it so much.

And you're such a pro.
Thank you, thank you.

Thank you, Coaches. John, before
you tell us who won,

give us some
thoughts, please.

Parijita, everyone's right
about how you carry yourself.

It just felt like
you owned the lyric.

You owned your body
and how you conveyed the lyric.

You're 17, so no one knows
how you're able to do this.

Valarie, some of the beginnings
of the song

felt like they weren't always
completely on

as sure of a footing as once
you got to those bigger notes

and you got to wail.

The wailing is so good.
So, great job.

Thank you. Thank you.

Peyton, I also thought

the beginning was
a little unsure as well,

but once you started wailing,
it was like, "Wow!"

Your tenor voice
is really cool.

It's powerful, it's just
nasal enough to be country.

It's got that fullness

to make it really soulful
at the same time,

and it's really great
to listen to.

Sir, I appreciate you, buddy.
Mm-hmm.

Daly: John, who won
this knockout?

[ Dramatic music plays ]

**

The winner of this knockout
is Parijita.

Parijita Bastola, you're moving
on to the live playoffs!

John: I chose Parijita.

The combination
of her stage presence,

her beautiful tone...

Let's keep going. Yes.
I appreciate you.

She was the one
I felt most confident

going into the lives with.

Oh, my God!
Oh, my God!

[ Laughing ]
Oh, my God!

It was my, like,
connection with them

that moved them.

That just means
so much.

Oh, my God, Mama!

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back.

**

Blake?
What are you doing here?

Uh, I just, uh...

These chairs are amazing.

Just the way there's not --
there's no seam on the back.

It's like a leather
or something, it's nice --

But this is, like,
my rehearsal.

Are you here to steal
my coaching secrets?

Oh, no, I was just like, "Man,
I want to take a second look

at these chairs, you know?"
It's pretty cool.

Alright.
This one has your name on it.

See you at the house.
Okay.

**

I'm about to go
to my knockout rehearsal.

I'm super excited,
super nervous.

I want to know who I'm going up
against.

I hear noises.

It's, like, top secret.
It's, like, all blacked out.

It literally could be anybody.

Gwen: Okay, guys!
Come on out! Yay!
Aah!

Destiny! Kique!

Oh, my God.

Do you want to know
who else is coming?
Kinda.
Kinda, a little bit.

I really want to know.
Alright, so this is crazy.

And come out,
next person!

Hey!
Kique! Kique!
Rowan!

This is the first time ever

that we're doing
a three-way knockout.

I grouped Destiny,
Kique, and Rowan.

They're all unique
and super young artists.

Oh, my God. Hi!
Oh, my God.

Oh, my -- Oh, my God.
My God.

She's like, "Oh, my God.
Oh, my God."

The three-way knockout itself,
that's nerve-racking.

Oh, my God!

But also, I'm good friends
with Kique.

And Destiny,
she's insanely talented.

You all did incredible
at the battles.

Saved you.

* No more drama *

* No more, no more *

You're so young,
and that song was so mature,

and you handled it.
I appreciate you.

I was like, "What am I gonna do?
What am I gonna do?"
Best coach ever.

And this is
a three-way knockout.

Never been done before.
Very excited.

And I'm here to have some
one-on-one time with you guys.

Yeah.
I'm excited.

Destiny's going first.
Okay.
Alright.
Okay.

What song did you choose?

I chose "Impossible"
by Christina Aguilera.

The hardest song
in the entire world.

Yeah, I just --

I love Christina Aguilera
so much.

She just has so much soul.
Let's hear it.

Ooh!
Here we go.
This is exciting.

* It's impossible *

* It's impossible to love you *

Oh, my God.

Gwen: Destiny goes and picks
a Christina Aguilera song.

"Impossible" -- one of the most
impossible songs to sing.

* What you're feeling *

Yes!
Oh, my God.

I was really scared for her, but
I watched her really grow today.

* For me to give you *

Kique: Watching Destiny rehearse
was crazy.

We're both 18,
but she just has one of these,

like, big, beautiful voices.

It's one of those voices that
scares you in this competition.

* Me *
Oh, my God.

This song reminds me of a time

of giving all my love
and support to friends

that, like,
didn't show the same.

* It's impossible *

For my 16th birthday, I invited
like my whole friend group,

and two people showed up,
and I was just like,

"Wow, this hurts."

So, I hope in my performance
I show that people aren't alone

when it comes
to stuff like that.

* If you're makin' it *
Aah!

[ Chuckles ]

Heart palpitations ATM.
That was amazing.

Thank you.
Honestly, I think
that's my favorite

I've heard your voice.

Oh, God.
This is now scary.

The power, the dynamics,
the vibrato.

Yeah.
They almost fell off
their chairs.

[ Laughs ]
But don't focus on the --
on the singing.

I don't want
to see you thinking.
I want to see you emoting.

You're confronting them.

* This is not a circus *

Yeah, like...
[ Vocalizing ]

Look up and down on them.
Give attitude.

Yeah.
You got to be bold about it.

Destiny:
It's super important for me

to deliver this song
in an emotional way.

I really want
to make the live playoffs.

I just want to keep elevating

and keep growing,
keep becoming a better artist.

Kique, you have
an awesome voice.

It's so cool and stylized.
Thank you.

So when I heard you were doing
this song, I was like,

"What is happening?"

So, "Hey Ya!" is, like, dope.
It's a cool song, upbeat.

So I wanted to kind of
bring it down in the beginning

and then bring it back into
something upbeat, something fun.

I'm just gonna watch
and see what happens.

I'm getting nervous.

* My baby don't mess around *

* Because she loves me so
and this I know for sure *

Gwen: Kique came with this idea
to do "Hey Ya!" by Outkast.

When I saw this on paper,
I was like,

"Gosh, what is he doing?"

But this felt like it came

from just so deep inside him

that it was just --
it felt natural.

* It's killing me right now *

Kique: I'm really
taking a risk here,

but one of my favorite things
to do is change songs.

* Hey ya *

I really want Gwen to see
that I'm not just a singer.

I'm also a musician.
I like to create compositions

and make music and change things
and make them my own.

Hey!
* You think you got it *

* Oh, you think you got it *

* But got it just don't get it *
I hate him.

* Till there's nothing at all *
I hate him. Oh, my God.

I was just like, "Man."
Whoo!

Kique's amazing at having
such confidence.

Like, he doesn't care
who's watching.

He's like,
"I'mma go crazy with it."

* Hey ya *

[ Laughs ]
Wow. That was crazy!

Oh, my God.

You know what's cool
about you is that, yeah,

you can do the runs,
but you can also sing in, like,

a straight-up pop
stylized voice,

almost like
an alternative voice,

which is kind of
what Outkast was.

They were like a blend
of so many different things.

So, I think if you stuck
to the melody

on that second verse
a little --

Here?
Yeah.

* Happy here *

If you did the original
right there,

people would lose
their minds.

Those low notes.
I know.

That would be cool.
And then I'd come back in

with the highest note
in the song.

Yeah.
* Hey ya *

Yeah.
That's cool.

Working with Gwen Stefani
has kind of changed

my perspective a little bit.
* Happy here *

* Hey ya *

Her advice is so good.
She's an awesome coach.

* Hey ya-a-a-a-a-a-a *

I'm so proud of you.
Thank you.

He's a rare one.

Now we have one more!

-One more.
-I got my girl.

Rowan: I hate you.
Did she just say,
"I hate you"?

I hate you.
A little bit.

This is gonna be crazy hard.
Oh, my God.

Your song is crazy.

Your song is cra--
Kique.

Gwen: Hi, Rowan.
Hi, Gwen.

You're so talented.

Thank you.
Everyone's like,
"Oh, she's so good!"

And it's not just
'cause you're 16.

You seem older.
Have you been performing?

Last summer,
I was, like, in a band,

and I performed around
all summer.

Oh, wow.
Around my small town,
but, yeah.

So, why did you choose
this song?

So, I chose "Vienna"
by Billy Joel,

one, because I love
older music.

Which is funny that you say
I, like, seem older.

I love older music.
I love older music, too.

And also I just feel like I can
kind of relate to this song.

It's like a good reminder
to just, like, live in what

you're living in right now
and not look too far ahead.

Yeah.
Be where you are
and take it all in.

I love this song.

* Slow down, you crazy child *

* You're so ambitious
for a juvenile *

* But then if you're so smart *
Ohh!

* Tell me, why are you
still so afraid? *
She's so, so talented.

Rowan: I actually listen
to Billy Joel with my dad a lot.

I love that I'm singing
this song

because it makes me think
of the times when we're, like,

sitting in the car
blasting Billy Joel.

Yeah, when we were in the car
and you were singing

and I wasn't.
[ Laughs ]
Right. Yeah, you --

I made you shut up
because...

Oh, God.
Not pretty.

[ Laughing ]
Not pretty. Not pretty.

He was in a band growing up
and was a musician.

He's pushing me to be
the best musician that I can be,

and I just really appreciate him
and all of his support.

The girls are here.
You want to say hi?

Hi, Quinn!
I miss you.

I miss you, too.
Where's Stelly?

-She's right here.
-Good luck. Love you.

* Whoa, oh *

* And you know that
when the truth is told *

Watching Rowan rehearse,
I was like, "No!"

'Cause I don't want
to go up against Rowan.

Rowan has one of those,
like, sweet, velvety tones.

It was genuinely, like,
gorgeous.

That's so pretty.

* Vienna waits for yo-o-o-o-ou *

Mm! Oh! Melting.

Yay!
You're so good!

Rowan: Thanks.
Whoo!

I love your tone so much.
Thank you.

I love there's like
a little bit of a crispy,

raspy thing that comes through,
which is really beautiful.
Yeah.

And it's so controlled.
Yeah.

You can play with that
even more, I think.

Let it crack.
That's just like spice.

Yeah.
You sing with
super emotion,

but I feel like you can
maybe play with the lyrics

a little more
with your face.

* When will you realize *

Maybe people would see
a different side to you.

You're letting them
in your soul,

and you gotta be
dramaticabout it.

Drama, you know? So...
Yes, yes, yes.

I am one performance away from
possibly making the top 16.

Come up here, guys.

So I'm gonna work on
the storytelling in my song

not only with my voice,
but also with my body language

and leave it out
all on the stage.

Today, I feel like
for all of you,

it's just really working
on that performance.

Whoever does that the best
for me is ready for the lives.

The lives is like --
is next level.

Good luck.
[ Squeals ]

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back
to the knockouts.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Kique!

And now with "Hey Ya!",
here's Kique.

[ Applause ]

* My baby don't mess around *

* Because she loves me so *

* And this I know for sure *

Whoo!

* But does she really wanna *

* But can't stand to see me
walk out the door *

Okay!
Crazy.

* Don't try to fight
this feelin' *

* 'Cause the thought alone
is killin' me right now *

Whoo!

* Thank God for Mom and Dad *

* For sticking two together *

* 'Cause we don't know how *

Sing, Kique!

* Hey ya *

* Hey ya *

Wow!
* Hey ya-a-a-a-a-a *

Whoa!

* Hey ya *

Ha-ha!
Gwen: Yeah!
[ Tempo increases ]

* You think you've got it,
oh, you think you've got it *

* But got it just don't get it
till there's nothing at all *

Whoo!
* If what they say is *

* "Nothing is forever" *

* Then what makes,
then what makes *

* Then what makes,
then what makes *

* Love the exception? *

* So why-a, why-a *

* Why-a, why-a, why-a *

* Are we so in denial *

* When we know that
we're not happy here? *

Whoo!

* Hey ya *

* Hey ya *

* Hey ya *

* Hey ya *

* Hey ya *

* Hey ya *

* Hey ya *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Dang!
Yes!
Kique!

What the hell?

I mean...

Yes!

* A star is born *

It's a twist!
It's a twist!

Wasn't that crazy?!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Let's go.

You almost wore that today?
[ Laughs ]

Alright, Destiny.
Ow-owww!

With "Impossible,"
here's Destiny Leigh.

[ Cheers and applause ]

**

* It's impossible *

* It's impossible to love you *

Whoo!

* If you don't *

* Let me know
what you're feeling *

* No, uh *

* Yeah *

* It's impossible *

* For me to give you
what you need *

[ Cheers and applause ]

* If you're always, huh *

* Hidin' from me *

* Me-e-e-e-e *

* I don't know what hurt you *

* I just wanna make it right *

* 'Cause, boy, I'm sick
and tired of trying to read *

* Your mind *

* It's impossible *

* Oh, baby, it's impossible *

* Impossible *

* If you makin' it this way *

**

* This is not a circus *

* Don't you play me
for a clown *

* How long can emotions
keep on goin' up and down? *

* It's impossible *

* Oh, baby, it's impossible *

* Impossible *

* If you keep treating me
this way *

* Over and over *
Whoa!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Got some fire.

Gwen: Whoo!

Come on, Rowan!

* This is "The Voice" *

Daly: Welcome back to Night One
of the knockouts.

Come on, Rowan!

Now singing "Vienna,"
here is Rowan Grace.

**

* Slow down, you crazy child *

* You're so ambitious
for a juvenile *

* But then if you're so smart *

* Tell me, why are you
still so afraid? *

* Oh, whoa, ohh *

* Where's the fire,
what's the hurry about? *

* You'd better cool it off
before you burn it out *

* You've got so much to do *

* And only so many hours
in a day *

* Hey *

* But you know that
when the truth is told *

* That you can get
what you want *

* Or you can just get old *

* You're gonna kick off *

* Before you even get
halfway through, ooh *

* When will you realize *

* Vienna waits for you? *

* Slow down, you crazy child *

* And take the phone
off the hook *

* And disappear for a while *

* It's alright, you can afford
to lose a day or two, ooh *

* When will you realize *

* Vienna waits for you? *

* Oh, oh, oh *

* And you know that
when the truth is told *

* Vienna waits for you? *

* When will you realize *

* Vienna waits for
yo-o-o-o-o-ou? *

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yes!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Yeah.

That's my team!

Everyone's a teenager up
on this stage. My goodness.

Kique, my God!
[ Laughter ]

For you to take that song
and do what you did with it

was so audacious.

Truly one of the most
compelling performances

we've seen in three rounds
on this show.

Beautiful job, Kique.
Kique: Thank you so much.

My heart is broken
at the moment. I can't.

[ Laughs ]

Destiny, as a performer,
you just gave this song

everything physically
that you had.

Some of the vocals could
have been a little bit better.

But if people don't feel
you connect to the song,

then it's not as effective,

and we certainly felt
that with you.

So great job, Destiny.

Thank you.
Thank you.

Rowan, I love that quiet part
of your voice.

It just has this,
like, haunting quality.

And then when you hit those
big notes, it's just powerful.

You can't be 16 years old.
This is crazy.

Thank you so much.
What a great group.

Gwen: Thank you, John.

Rowan, you've been one
of my favorites,

even though I didn't turn around
for you originally.

You're really starting
to come onto the radar.

And, Destiny,
you literally look like a star.

Thank you.
I did hear a couple
of things in there

that I think
could have been better,

but overall I thought
it was really good.

If I was picking,
it'd be Kique.

Thank you so much.
Thanks, Blake Shelton.

I can't believe you guys
are all teenagers.

Yeah.
You guys have blossomed
so much.

Like, Destiny, when you came out
and you turned around

and you had your hands
on your hips,

I literally was mesmerized.
Your performance was great.

Wow.
Thank you so much.

Kique,
if this was a video game,

you just like skipped
20 levels today.

[ Laughs ]

For you to do a cover
that was on the cutting edge

of a song that was
on the cutting edge

was like "Inception."

I felt like
a star was born.

How cute!
Yeah, it was beautiful
to watch.

Thank you so much.
Daly: Thank you, Coaches.

Gwen, before you tell us
who won the knockout,

what did you think?

We got 18, 18, 16.

And then Carson.

Yeah, and then Carson.
Shh!

19.
Camila: 19 years old.

21.
21-year-old Carson.

Destiny,
you shocked me today.

The way that you worked
the stage, you were like,

"Whatever happens with my voice
is gonna happen,

and I'm just gonna give it
all I got."

And I really felt that from you.
You just go for it.

You were like, "Rawr!"
So really good job today.

Really good job.
Thank you so much, Gwen.

Rowan,
we talked a little bit

about showing
a little more emotions

in your face,
and you really did bring that.

Honestly, it gets me like teary
'cause I'm like,

"Wow, like, I got to work
with her, and she grew."

It's really inspiring for me.

And you just did a great job.
Thank you.

Kique, I saw the song choice,
and I was like,

"What is he doing?"
I was so mad.

And we were all so blown away.
It was so incredible.

And I know that we kept

going back and forth
with trying to like,

"Okay, go back to the melody
a little bit,"

because I think it's tasteful
to hold back

and then give them
a little more.

And I saw that you did that,
so thank you.

It -- It sounded so good.

Gwen, you got
a tough one here.

Who is the winner
of this knockout?

Carson,
this is really hard.

The teens
are my favorite!

I know!
My teenagers!

Oh, my gosh.
It's crazy.

[ Dramatic music plays ]

The winner of the knockout...

is Kique.

Daly:
Kique, congratulations!

This was a really hard decision.
So proud of you.

Holy crap, so good.
Thank you so much.

But Kique killed it.

You just blew us away.
So well done.
I appreciate it.

He's just a very unique type
of an artist.

And I can't wait to see
what we do together next.

Congratulations.
Thank you so much, Blake.
I appreciate it.

Kique: I'm so extremely grateful
that Gwen chose me

to move on to the lives.

One of like four spots
that she has,

she chose me for one of them,
and that's, like, insane to me.

Coaches, let me remind
you that Destiny is
available to steal.

Destiny, anything you'd like
to say to your coach?

Destiny: This was such
an amazing opportunity,

and it's taught me
to just keep working hard,

so you guys
will see me again.

Give it up for Destiny Leigh,
ladies and gentlemen!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Destiny was
an incredible performer,

but I think vocally,
this knockout

didn't do it for me
enough to steal her.

Rowan, anything that you'd like
to say to Gwen?

Rowan: I feel like I've grown
so much already since blinds.

Thank you all just for this.
This is so amazing.

I can't believe
I'm even here right now.

So, this is
actually insane.

Give it up
for Rowan Grace!

[ Cheers and applause ]

You're incredible.
You're so amazing.
Thank you.

John: Amazing!

Nobody wants Rowan?
Daly: We got a steal!

No one wants Rowan?!
Yes!

Daly: Blake Shelton...
Come on, Rowan!

...uses his one and only steal
in the knockouts

for the 16-year-old!
I'll take Rowan.

Oh, my God!
I'll take Rowan.

There was no way I was gonna let
Rowan get out of here.

I love her voice.

Rowan is an incredible addition
to my team.

I can't wait to take her
into the lives.

Oh, my God.
Thank you so much.

I got her!
Whoo!

I finally got it right.
Team Blake, here we go!

There's a red button
in front of me.

I finally pushed it
at the right time for Rowan.
