Previously on MasterChef...

MasterChef! MasterChef!

Thousands auditioned from all corners of America...

New York city.

Los Angeles.

Chicago!

But only the top home cooks...

Congratulations.

...made it into the MasterChef kitchen...

This is the kitchen of your dreams.

...where they waged culinary war

in the biggest cooking competition in the world.

The stakes don't get any higher than this.

Go!

There were intense team challenges...

Guys, come on, move!

- This is ridiculous. - Uh-uh.

And the winning team is...

Yeah, I'm about to hit the floor.

Shocking twists...

You're cooking without sight.

And explosive confrontation.

Never call food disgusting.

Everyone just calm the [bleep] down!

There were highs...

It's perfectly seasoned.

A professional cook would be proud.

- That is one of the best dishes i've ever tasted. - Thank you.

And lows.

These kind of dishes send you home.

You have reached the end of the road.

So far, eight have been eliminated.

I'm sorry, it's time to take that apron off.

Tonight, it's a star-filled mystery box.

Eva Longoria.

Oh, my god!

It was beautiful and tender. Good job.

And an elimination challenge...

Are we saying good night to you?

...with brutal results.

That is the worst dish in four years of MasterChef.

With one of the most shocking elimination at the season so far.

You are not in the top ten.

Oh!

Never saw that one coming.

Oh, my gosh.

Wow.

Biggest mystery box I've ever seen in my life.

Top 11, feels good.

But now it's time to get rid of the strongest competition,

like, James, Natasha, and Lynn.

All right.

Welcome back, everyone.

- Morning. - Morning.

I've never seen a mystery box that big before.

Anything could be under there.

Sort of giant animal, you know?

Or maybe a big cow.

There's just 11 of you left.

One of you will be the next MasterChef.

Make no mistake, this is

the biggest cooking competition in America.

With 11 of you still in the competition,

we have to keep throwing big challenges at you.

and nothing is bigger than this mystery box.

All eyes on the box.

The first thing I see is some high heels.

You know, I get excited.

It raises a little bit more, I see some hips.

I get extremely excited.

And it's...

Beautiful...

Eva Longoria.

Oh, my god!

Oh, my god! What the...

That's great.

Oh, my god. I cannot believe it.

I think she's an idol.

She's got restaurants.

She has cooking in her life.

I'm a huge fan.

Holy cow... Eva Longoria.

Not only is she a talented actress,

but Eva is also an extremely successful restaurateur.

Eva has opened a stunning restaurant in Vegas,

a new culinary hot spot called "She..."

- "She". - At Morton's in Vegas.

The idea behind it?

It's a feminine take on a male steakhouse concept, so...

- Nice. - Yeah.

Your love of food comes from where?

- Well, I'm Mexican. - Mm-hmm.

But no, I come from a family of home cooks.

A lot of things center around food

in my family and in my culture,

so everybody's always in the kitchen.

but Eva's not just here to look incredibly beautiful.

'Cause obviously that's my job and what I'm here for.

Eva's here because she's a restaurant owner

who knows good food when she tastes it.

Eva has handpicked

every ingredient under that mystery box

that you will be cooking with tonight.

As with every mystery box challenge,

the contestants have to prepare,

cook, and present one incredible dish

using all or some of the ingredients

inside the box.

Are you ready to see what Eva has chosen?

- Yes. - Yes, chef.

I grew up in the south part of San Diego,

five minutes from the border.

On the count of three, lift those boxes.

So I am hoping that

there is mexican food under this box.

One...

Two...

Three. Lift.

Yeah.

Oh, yay. Yeah!

- Yes. - Oh, yes.

Excited?

- Yeah. - Yes.

Good.

I am very excited about my ingredients.

I've given you pork tenderloin, shrimp, avocado,

mangos, corn, mexican chocolate,

dried pasilla peppers, chile de arbol,

fresh jalapeno, fresno peppers, hot sauce,

tomatillo, cotija cheese, crema Mexicana,

cuitlacoche, onion, and garlic.

Luca, you look confused.

Yeah, no offense, but I never eat Mexican.

Eva has brought the spice of fire

into the MasterChef kitchen.

So are you ready?

Yes, chef.

Your 60 minutes starts...

- Now. - Now!

Eva, why these ingredients?

All of these ingredients really work well together.

There's a lot of things you can do.

What's dangerous in that box?

- A very unforgiving meat. - Yeah.

- It's hard to keep moist. - Mm-hmm.

They might go overboard with the spice.

Right.

Graham, what would you do?

I'd try to make a really quick mole...

I mean, traditionally, of course,

they cook for hours and hours...

Whipped avocado, and then roast that pork.

I think keeping it nice and simple.

Eddie, what are you doing?

I'm gonna do a chili rub tenderloin

over a bed of creamed corn.

I'm gonna do a cilantro verde sauce on the side.

You being an ex-nfl player,

Do you think people underestimated you?

Initially I think they did,

but I think I've shown, you know,

that I'm supposed to be here.

I can cook nad everybody starting realize that now.

- Good luck, Eddie. - Thank you.

- How are you? - It's going well.

Explain what you're gonna be making here.

I grew up very immersed in Mexican culture,

so I am making a crusted pork tenderloin

with a pasilla and chile de arbol sauce,

- and I'm also doing elote... - Yep.

Like, Mexican street food.

Well, good luck.

- James is from Texas. James... - Yay!

Texas! Yeehaw.

That's right. Nice to meet you.

Pleasure to meet you too.

So, James, what are you gonna do for us?

I'm doing a roasted corn and colossal shrimp ceviche,

and then I'm gonna make a mango gastrique to go with it.

Yeah.

- Bri. - Hi, chef.

- What are you doing? - I'm doing a play on Mexican street corn.

- Mm-hmm, tastes nice. - Grilled it, turned it into a salad.

Nice. So you're not using the pork,

- but you're using the shrimp? - I am.

I'm going to just do a real quick poach

- in cilantro and butter. - Nice.

And then I'm gonna finish it off by grilling it.

Ten minutes left.

- Eddie's looks phenomenal. - Eddie's looks awesome.

incredible. Absolutely incredible.

Beautiful color.

Yeah, and Bri... I mean, a vegetarian.

Even hers tastes delicious.

All right, three minutes

Until I get to taste some stuff.

Oh, I'm gonna be up there on the top three.

I don't know if... it's up to Eva,

if she thinks it's worthy.

We'll see.

Last 60 seconds.

Remember, the winner of this mystery box challenge

gets a massive advantage.

I'm so stressed out.

Ten, nine, eight,

seven, six...

Five, four, three,

two, one.

And stop!

I'm so stressed out.

Tonight's mystery box

was compromised of ingredients from Mexico,

selected by special guest judge Eva Longoria.

Five, four, three,

two, one.

And stop!

Great job.

Throughout the mystery box challenge,

the judges, accompanied by Eva,

taste elements of all the home cooks' dishes

as they come together.

They now take one last look to choose

the top three standouts.

and the winner of this challenge will receive

a major advantage in the next round.

There's three dishes that we'd like

to take a much closer look at.

The first dish we would like to taste

featured some perfectly cooked shrimp.

Up against all the carnivores,

Bri, congratulations.

Let's go.

I'm so sick and tired of hearing

Bri's name being called, like, praising Bri.

I just don't get it.

I just don't see a vegetarian in the top ten.

What is that?

I did a butter and cilantro

poached and then grilled shrimp,

topped it with a pico de gallo

and grilled corn salad.

Here's the thing... The whole balance is wonderful.

Shrimp's cooked beautifully.

I'm still miffed that

that was put together by a vegetarian

Who's not actually tasting the main protein.

I think, Bri, this has been your best dish

so far in this competition.

- Congratulations, great job. - Thank you.

Very excited.

The use of that cheese is amazing to me.

You did just the right amount of jalapeno.

You have let everything live on its own.

So I think you did a beautiful job at that.

- Thank you so much. - Very good job.

Really nailed the cookery on the shrimp,

which is quite amazing.

- Everything what you did on the plate sings. - Thank you.

- Good job, Bri. - Thanks so much.

The second dish

used a pork tenderloin beautifully.

Please step forward...

Eddie.

I think more than anything I'm pleased

that I'm in the top three

because it shows my consistency,

and it shows that I'm only going up.

All right, tell me exactly what we have.

I have a chili-seared pork loin,

- A roasted cream corn... - Mm-hmm.

With a mango relish and a herb oil.

Smells amazing.

The pork is cooked perfectly.

This is a dish you can keep eating and eating,

and it's so simple.

You nailed it. Great job.

Thank you.

Eddie.

- How you doing? - I'm good.

This was by far the best-cooked pork.

It was beautiful and tender.

The flavors outside of it,

it had a kick to it, but it didn't stay.

It didn't linger. It's so light

and I wouldn't expect that from somebody like you.

But it was absolutely fantastic.

I-I really enjoyed it. Congratulations.

- Thank you very much. - Thank you.

The third and final dish we want to look at...

This person actually knows Mexican food really well,

and it shows.

Please, step forward...

- Savannah. - Yes!

Finally! Oh, my god.

I've been waiting so long for this moment,

for the judges to call my name.

I'm so excited.

This dish is so beautiful, I just wanted to show you...

I mean, like, come on.

It's, like, great plating.

- It's gorgeous. - Thank you.

It's a spice crusted pork tenderloin

over a cream corn, inspired by an elote,

and a tomatillo avocado salsa.

It has all the components.

The rub is spicy, sweet.

The corn is rich.

The guac is acidic.

The flavor is not only really intriguing,

it's also texturally interesting on your palate.

We've been waiting for you to kind of step up

with something like this.

- Good job. - Thank you.

Savannah.

- Very excided about your dish. - Thanks.

It's very spicy, but not overwhelming...

- Mm-hmm. - Which I really like.

I love a tomatillo in a guacamole.

I think that was really interesting.

I think you did a great job.

Thank you.

Okay. Three stunning dishes.

I know I deserve this,

and I deserve to be here,

and I deserve to win.

Only one of those dishes can become the winner.

Being a former professional athlete,

I came here to compete, and I came here to win.

Today, my dish is definitely on the money.

That winner will have

a huge advantage in the pantry shortly.

I want to be the one to get that advantage.

I wanna control the game.

I want the judges to call my name so badly.

The person that cooked the best dish

was...

Three stunning dishes.

Only one can become the winner.

The person that cooked

the best dish this evening

was...

Bri.

- Well done. - Really?

Cool.

We absolutely loved that dish.

- Restaurant quality. - Good job.

Thank you.

Before you go into the pantry,

I would like each and every one of you

to give a big thank you and a big good night

to our stunning judge Eva Longoria.

Thank you.

Thank you, guys.

I can't even tell you how much I don't believe

this is not your day job.

I think each one of you has a really,

really great chance to be a MasterChef.

Thank you.

Thank you,uys. Thank you so much.

Thank you, darling. Amazing.

Bri, brilliant job.

Seriously, absolute brilliance.

Are you ready to see

your advantage that's waiting for you in the pantry?

I am so ready.

- Let's go, my darling. - Cool.

- Amazing. Good job. - Thank you.

- Really well done. - Thanks.

Nice, Savannah.

Yay.

Bri, welcome to the MasterChef pantry.

This is the one place

in the competition

where you now get to take control on what happens next.

You'll be relieved to hear that you

will...

Not be cooking in tonight's elimination challenge.

Awesome.

But all of your fellow competitors

will have to cook phenomenal dishes

to avoid elimination.

Tonight's challenge is all

about ingredients, time, and money.

We're about to show you

two baskets of ingredients from Walmart,

including a variety of groceries,

as well as fresh proteins,

fruits, and vegetables.

You will choose one basket

for one competitor.

The one nine will get the other basket

and its time limit.

This first basket of ingredients contains...

Strawberries, a banana,

three eggs, milk, butter, sugar, flour,

strawberry gelatin, baking powder, and a lemon.

This basket from Walmart costs just under $5.

Wow.

You could make all kinds of desserts

with what's in here,

especially with a full hour,

which is the cooking time limit

that comes with this basket.

One hour with these ingredients.

Okay.

If anybody out there isn't great with desserts,

this could be a way to get them in serious trouble.

The next basket from Walmart costs

just under $25.

It has a bounty of produce and groceries:

Sweet potato, cauliflower, vintage ripe tomatoes,

tricolor mini bell peppers, collard greens,

and more than you ever need

to make a fantastic entree.

And to top it off, a 14-ounce choice

premium rib eye steak.

Just one in five steaks are good enough

to be called "Walmart choice premium beef."

Walmart sells the highest quality choice steaks,

and they're certified by the USDA for quality.

This basket has enough ingredients

to feed a family of four or make

a whole variety of different entrees.

Whoever cooks with this basket

gets just 30 minutes cook time.

One basket, more savory ingredients,

more potential dishes, but less time.

But the other basket has more time,

still great ingredients, but obviously less of them.

I do have the opportunity to take out someone big today.

In my head, I need to strategically choose

for the majority of the people

the one basket that will mess almost everyone up

and then one person for that other basket.

It's time to pick, Bri.

Hey, guys.

Because Bri won the mystery box challenge,

she is safe from elimination

in this next challenge.

Have any of you guys realized

that Bri's officially now in the top ten?

The first.

Natasha, are your hands hurting?

- A little bit. - A little bit.

In the pantry,

Bri was forced to make some decisions

that will mean at least one MasterChef dream

ends here tonight.

In the pantry, we gave Bri

the choice of two baskets

filled with fresh Walmart produce and groceries.

One basket had just under $5 worth of ingredients

and a full one-hour cook time.

The other basket had way more ingredients,

more than you'd ever need to make a fantastic entree

and just under $25 worth.

That included a choice premium rib eye steak,

rice, sweet potato, avocado,

cauliflower, and tomatoes,

but just 30 minutes cook time.

Bri chose one basket for one person.

Everyone else will get the other basket to cook with.

Bri, who is the one individual

that you are singling out?

Natasha.

- Natasha? - I don't care.

She should've went home a while ago.

- So I'm all right with it. - Wow.

I thought about majority of the people in the room,

and knowing that they're not strong bakers,

I wanted to give the majority

of the competition the baking basket.

and Natasha is fantastic

at baking and desserts,

and so she was my choice for the second basket.

Pleas, go into the pantry

and collect your baskets.

Good luck.

- Oh. - Dessert it is.

There's some excellent things in this basket.

Well, there's not much in here to use.

Wow, wow, wow.

We don't even have heavy cream, we have whole milk.

I've got the steak basket,

and everyone else is unfortunately

with the baking basket.

I don't know if Bri's trying

to throw me out, but she's definitely not

doing a good job with this basket.

So, Natasha, your time will start

in a half hour from now.

Those of you lucky enough to have 60 minutes.

Your time...

Starts...

Now.

Natasha is in a very vulnerable position tonight.

When you're the only person cooking a steak,

She has the spotlight on her.

Natasha has a full 30 minutes

to just stare at her ingredients.

she's been glaring at Bri most of the time.

I don't think she's even thinking about her basket

and she just has eyes full of disdain for Bri.

What would you do with the $5 dessert basket?

I would make a beautiful banana

and strawberry tarte tatin.

Then with the milk and the sugar,

I'd make a very quick, delicious custard.

Somebody's gonna be kicked out of here, you know?

And then we'll have the top ten.

Yeah.

Right, Savannah, what are you doing?

A banana cream pie.

And I'm gonna make an Italian meringue to go on top.

What's in that? It's very sweet.

Well, it's a pastry cream,

- So it's got a little bit of flour... - Uh-huh.

Um, sugar, bananas.

Confident you'll get into the top ten?

- Yes, chef. - Let's go.

I'm gonna make banana cake with a strawberry coulis.

I don't mind baking, it's just not my thing.

Look at the recipe, exact numbers and thing.

More like a "do it right away" guy.

Jessie, what do you got going on?

I've got some shortbread in the oven.

So what's gonna be in the tart shell?

It'll be caramelized banana tart,

little meringue on top.

I really like the idea of the caramelized banana,

the little crunch on the outside for texture.

Just make sure you don't overcook it,

You know what I mean?

All right, Lynn, what are you doing?

- I am doing strawberries pavlova. - Wow.

Talk to me about the steps.

Just doing meringue and then

spreading it as thin as I can.

- No cream? - No cream.

- Jelly? - I was gonna try to do a milk jelly,

but it's not setting the way I want it to, so...

No, this is broken. Why is that broken?

I don't know.

I don't even like strawberry jell-o.

I think it's kind of a cheesy ingredient.

If you don't like it, why the [bleep] are you doing it?

I think I'm gonna do a banana pastry cream instead.

Served with what?

It's gonna go on top of the pavlova.

On top of the pavlova that's already broken

that's not coming together,

that you've got no cream to make,

but you're gonna substitute that with milk?

Lynn, are we saying good night to you?

It's halfway through the elimination test,

and Bri is in control.

She's made nine home chefs cook a dessert in an hour,

but targeted Natasha with a tougher challenge...

Cooking a steak entree in just 30 minutes.

Let's go.

Just over ten seconds until Natasha starts cooking.

Okay.

Good luck.

Five, four,

three, two, one.

Natasha, off you go.

30 minutes.

Natasha has a 30-minute time limit

on the $25 basket.

I know that under pressure she hasn't done so well before.

You know, you only get one chance.

She better hope that it's right.

I got my cauliflower going.

I got my steak on.

When I think about Walmart, I really don't think

about, like, an awesome steak.

and this steak is pretty much, like, the bomb.

It's an amazing steak.

I'm feeling really confident.

I was definitely hoping for the steak.

That was my kind of basket.

I'm making a strawberry muffin

with some candied strawberries.

My muffins aren't rising.

When I added the gelatin

for a little bit of strawberry flavor,

it may have messed with the science.

They might be some rock-hard muffins.

Krissi's not my target,

but if Krissi goes home,

that's cool.

All right, James, what are you doing?

- Deep-fried bananas... - Right.

With a soft strawberry custard.

and then I've made a couple of different toppings

to kinda pick the one I think that will balance the best.

Who do you think is your biggest threat right now?

I definitely think Lynn.

I see him with me in the top five, in the top two.

You got just over 15 minutes

to get into the top ten of MasterChef.

Good luck.

I'm looking at Natasha, I'm very excited.

Bri may have dealt her a trump card...

- Yeah. - Not a death blow.

Jessie's looks amazing.

She's caramelizing bananas in, like, sugar caramel.

I mean, real beautiful color.

Very smart.

Two individuals that I'm seriously nervous about...

the first one is Lynn,

because his pavlova has just gone to crap.

I mean, just nothing is coming together.

And then, the second one is Savannah.

Sweet on sweet.

Just laced with sugar, sugar, and sugar.

Whew.

Not ready yet.

Natasha, how are you doing?

I'm okay, chef.

You are up against it, young lady.

- Yep. - What are you doing?

Steak and fries, french fry sweet potatoes.

It's got a little bit of sauces on the side.

Got some cauliflower in there.

- Mm-hmm, good luck. - Thank you, chef.

60 seconds to go, come on.

Let's go, guys, come on.

30 seconds to go.

Bri, from up there, who is not

Going into the top ten?

Quick!

- A name? - Um...

Krissi.

Ten, nine, eight,

seven, six, five,

four, three, two, one.

And stop!

Hands in the air.

And for one of you, for the last time

ever in this competition,

you will put your hands in the air.

That was a very, very tough challenge.

Before we start tasting,

let's invite down

the young lady who set you this task.

Bri, please, come and join your fellow contestants.

I'm sure they're all excited to high-five you.

Okay. First up, Luca.

Okay, what is this?

Banana cake with pastry cream

and strawberry compote.

The last elimination test,

you were in the bottom three, no?

Yes, sir.

Is today different?

No. I'm just not confident.

I don't think the inside is cooked enough.

Uh-oh.

Is this melted banana here, or is this raw cake?

Your guess is as good as mine.

Oh. It doesn't look so bad.

I think it's the banana.

It's the banana.

Are you happy about that?

I mean, I don't know how it tastes,

but I feel much better.

It looks cooked.

Pretty good.

You seem amazed, like a miracle happened.

- Like... - Well, I was praying.

So maybe a miracle really happened.

Not bad.

That's a nice crust.

Bananas are tasty.

Yeah, you know, it actually tastes quite nice.

And with less than $5 of ingredients, you know,

It's quite nice to see that level of ambition.

It's not bad.

For under 5 bucks, this is pretty tasty.

You were in the bottom three

of the last elimination challenge.

I don't think that'll happen today.

Thank you.

All right, next up, the one

that everyone wants to beat, the king of plating.

Lynn, let's go.

Don't say that.

That's right.

Mr. Finesse.

Wow, I mean...

You got a second?

Lynn... that's incredible.

Lynn, let's go.

Mr. Finesse.

Wow.

You got a second?

Lynn... That's incredible.

Are you serious?

Did you drive over it?

What is it?

It's, uh, baked meringue,

macerated strawberries on top and a banana puree.

- What to say, guys. - Are we gonna eat it?

What is that?

You know this is elimination, right?

What's the gray bits?

It's a banana puree.

It looks like you slipped in cow [bleep] and baked it.

It's like eating a wall insulator

with some strawberry or banana

that your granddad left under his bed before he passed.

It's rancid.

Right now, you are close

to getting kicked out of this competition,

because that is the worst dish I have seen

on a plate in four years of MasterChef.

- Wow. - Wow.

Oh, Lynn.

Unbelievable.

They raise you up so high,

and then...

- You fall. - Yeah.

I think maybe...

Might be a memento for you to take home.

I'm completely mind-blown that Lynn made that.

I think everyone in the room kind of realized

that anyone can fail at any time.

Next up, please, Savannah.

So tell me exactly what we have.

it's a banana cream pie.

There's a pastry, banana cream, meringue,

but the meringue broke.

The pastry could've gone a little longer.

The meringue... weeping, broken.

Obviously things could've been tweaked,

elevated, made better.

This dish is not what we expect from you at this level.

Mm-hmm.

Next up, Jessie, let's go, please.

I did a shortbread tart

with some caramelized banana

and meringue on top.

- You got the shortcake? - Mm-hmm.

- Next layer? - Banana.

- Banana? - And then the meringue.

Smart.

That's delicious.

I like the way

that you are now starting

to evolve into a serious contender

in this competition.

A $5 basket,

and you've come up with a delicious dessert.

- Great job. - Yay. Thank you so much.

Next up, James.

Hello.

What is the dish?

Crispy deep-fried banana

with a strawberry puree, macerated strawberries,

and a thin custard.

Calling that a custard

would be a very, very generous description of what it is.

A lot of people consider you a front-runner.

This doesn't really kind of

concrete you at the top of the pack today.

I don't like it.

Next up, Krissi.

Well, it was supposed to be

a strawberry muffin until I decided

to put the strawberry gelatin in there.

What happened?

I-I usually add a packet

of instant vanilla pudding to some of my cakes

- to make it really moist. - Mm-hmm.

So I figured a teaspoon of the strawberry gelatin...

Wasn't gonna really make that much of a difference,

and it turned my muffin into paste.

- Paste? - And it's disgusting.

Oh, my god, yeah, they have

an incredible density.

that's the strangest texture I've ever seen.

Yeah, I know, it's horrible.

Ugh.

Of all the people,

you would've nailed a $5 bake sale.

Wow.

Krissi, why would you piss around

putting gelatin

inside something that you can do

with your eyes closed?

I just thought it would just give it

- strawberry flavor and... - But...

If there's one person that we nominated

at the beginning of this competition

to come out on top, it was you.

And it just shows how wrong we can be.

This is your worst performance in MasterChef.

Last but not least, the person

that Bri singled out, Natasha.

She's big competition

and possibly top ten,

so I would like to see Natasha go home today.

Visually, it looks beautiful.

I love the idea of those sweet potato fries.

That's difficult to nail, that.

Um, three sauces...

I mean, normally you would serve one steak sauce.

You put three on there. Why?

I kinda wanted to have a variety

with the sweet potato as well as the steak.

What's the rub on the steak?

A little bit of brown sugar,

some red chili flake, salt, pepper.

Nice sear, beautifully done.

You've nailed the temperature perfectly.

Considering you had 30 minutes,

you did a really good job. Very nice, indeed.

- Smart. - Thank you. Thanks.

What do you think Bri's strategy was?

To get you out or somebody else out?

I think she knows that I-I know baking.

And she thought that I'd struggle

with only half an hour.

Well, the actual cook on the steak is beautiful.

It's, like, a great medium-rare.

The cauliflower... how'd you do those?

Just roasted it with some olive oil,

a little bit of brown sugar, some pepper and salt.

Really good, good job,

Especially with the time you had.

- Thank you. - Thanks.

Message for Bri: You completely failed, 100%.

Nice try.

Wow.

This is a tough one.

Please, give us a moment

to find out who...

is not gonna make it into the top ten.

It's tough.

We all have bad days.

What could we eat from Lynn?

- There's nothing there. - Nothing.

You have the most talent here.

You know who's the only person

who really deserves to go home.

James I was disappointed with.

- Do you know what I mean? - Yeah, and the weird sauce on the side.

- Whatever. - Well, you're not going home.

I know that. Are you kidding me?

Okay.

There were fantastic dishes

that really stood out.

But the best dish of the night

literally stood head and shoulders

Above its competition.

Congratulations...

Jessie, well done.

So far, I have won three elimination challenges...

- Congratulations. - Thank you.

But that doesn't mean anything.

I've just gotten lucky, I think.

You're in the top ten,

and you are now

the one and only team captain

in our next challenge.

Great job.

Now, as you all know,

this is an elimination challenge.

And at least one of these three home cooks

will not be advancing into the top ten

of this competition.

The first cook...

Please, step forward...

James.

I never thought that I would

ever be in the bottom three.

I'm not ready to go home.

I've come too far. I've done too much.

I'm not ready.

The second disastrous dish...

Please, step forward, Lynn.

I'm really disappointed in myself.

I didn't think I did my best.

I am fully preparing myself for what's gonna happen next.

And the third home cook...

Krissi.

It is down to James, Lynn, and Krissi.

And it's awesome,

because someone who's a top competitor

is definitely going home tonight.

I'm amazed that you three are standing before us.

I think of what you've achieved,

and what you've done in this competition so far,

it is just ridiculous.

A major shock.

Lynn.

Please, step forward.

You've put forward to us some of the most refined

and some of the most amazing-looking dishes ever

in the history of this competition.

You have amazing talent.

And you've shown us so much,

up until tonight.

Lynn...

Lynn.

Please, step forward.

You've put forward to us some of the most refined

and some of the most amazing-looking dishes ever

in the history of this competition.

You have amazing talent.

and you've shown us so much,

up until tonight.

You went from hero...

to zero.

Lynn...

You are not...

in the top ten.

I'm sorry, your time is done in MasterChef.

- Wow. - Oh, my gosh.

James, Krissi, back to your bench.

Good luck.

James and Krissi are going back to the stage?

Is this really happening?

Lynn, we're as shocked

as everybody else standing behind you,

but we have to judge you

on the plate on the night.

Unfortunately,

It's time to leave MasterChef.

Whoa.

But if there's one thing that you've confirmed,

you're meant to continue in this business,

because you have left a legacy

with a very lasting impression.

Come and say good night, big man.

I thought Lynn was going to win

the whole competition,

and it just changed everything.

My entire mind-set's different about the competition now.

Keep that head up high.

Thanks so much, guys.

Thank you, Lynn. Good night.

Good luck. Good luck. Good luck.

I am not happy at all that I'm going home.

It's been fun, guys.

But there's nothing in the world

I wanna do more than to work in food

and to really apply everything that I know

and I've learned from here.

Yeah!

I have no doubt this is gonna put me

further in life with food.

Red team!

What I learned here is gonna really propel me

into the next stages of life.

I'm not leaving depressed.

I'm leaving grateful

because my life will never be the same after this.

Wow, that's definitely

in my top three, without a shadow of a doubt.

That's beautiful. Great job.

If I was out in that room right now,

I'd be terrified.

The judges have given me all these opportunities.

Congratulations, Lynn.

And now, I have this entire life to look forward to.
