ANDY: This season has given us
some of the best cooks

that we've ever seen,

and one of them will claim
the title of MasterChef 2024.

POH: This is the wildest combination
for a Grand Finale ever.

I think Nat and Pez are such
a classic case of natural talent

versus just hard yakka.

It is game on!

JUDGES: Whoa!

We have Nat, who clearly showed
so much potential on day one.

I never, ever thought I would have
kangaroo as delicious as that.

You're already thinking like a chef.

I'd be scared of you.

She's got this wildly youthful
energy about her,

and that's how she approaches
her cooks.

Good vibes going on.

It's OK. I've got this.

I've got a little something-something
for ya.

But she's a little thrill-seeker,
and that's gotten her into trouble.

Absolutely cooked it.

Alright. I'm playing my pin.

Take one last look at it!

What I love about Nat's cooking

is that every plate of food
has got some personal connection.

On day one, it was just like,
"There's my sick food, now eat it."

Whereas now you really want to
talk about it,

where it came from
and why it's so special to you.

Her food tells a story

and when you hear the story,
you're in.

I was so lost for so long

because I felt so torn
between two cultures.

But this experience
has changed me so much.

While cooking in this kitchen,

I found that I was able to tap into
my Thai heritage.

My mum, uh, created her own version
of satay sauce

that everyone used to
just, like, froth on.

So I'm going to serve it
with pork skewers.

What you've done is brought
this incredible wave of flavours.

This experience has really connected
my mum and I together.

JEAN-CHRISTOPHE: You work like
a chef.

You're so focus.

You're growing fast.

You're very, very dangerous.

I want to show my mum
that I am built for this industry

and that I'm ready to be a chef.

Sorry, mate, I'm sweating
like an old mule.

JEANÐCHRISTOPHE: I did not see Pezza
in the final.

I'm just going to wing it.

I swear,
I thought he was going to be

the first one to be kicked out.

And he's there!

Don't have these in Tasmania.

He was struggling.

Let's go, Pezza! Let's go, Pez!
Can't stop shaking.

And then Darren Purchese
pressure test...

DARREN PURCHESE: Look at that!

..is where I saw Pezza changing.

He tried to be more composed...

POH: Take your time, Pez.

..to be more precise...
Yeah, Pezza!

..making less mistakes.

You've smashed that out of the park.

I think Pezza is a worker

but also is someone who cares.

I come in this thinking
I don't stand a chance.

I think, because of that,
I probably was in the shadows,

but I started getting
some really good feedback.

Hats off, man, that's banging.

You know, it's light, fluffy -
great sponge.

I've soaked it in
and I've taken everything in

and I've started to just cook
with confidence.

Service, please!

I have slowly just got better
and better and better.

She's another dessert
from Pezza today.

Pecan and bacon tart
with, uh, eggnog ice-cream.

So, something a bit different.

I'm not just the meat-and-three-veg
guy from Tassie.

You don't look like a butcher
at the moment.

(LAUGHS) Don't I?
You look like an artist.

I've gone up that next element.

I've cooked
some really fancy dishes.

SOFIA: The Pezza who is
sitting opposite us today

is absolutely not the Pezza
who walked in

on day one of this competition.

I love this new guy.

It's just unbelievable!

I can see it in myself,
and I believe in myself now

that I am good enough.

I deserve to be here
and I could win this.

(CHEERING)

NAT: Let's go.
PEZZA: Yeah. Let's just love it, eh?

Look at 'em! Here they come,
here they come, here they come!

(CHEERING)

Come on!

Check you two out, eh?

Loving that fresh kit.

And I'm so pumped to be saying this.

Welcome to the Grand Finale
of MasterChef 2024!

(CHEERING)

Pezza, Nat, tonight's winner
will have their name carved

into that trophy...

..claim the title
and take home a whopping ¤250,000.

(CHEERING)

But that's not all.

They'll also be given
the opportunity of a lifetime.

And, trust me, guys, you have
never seen a prize like this.

(ALL GASP)

This week, one of you will be
the next resident chef

at Alumni Restaurant,
Crown Melbourne...

..and you'll be serving
your signature menu!

(APPLAUSE)

You've worked incredibly hard
to get to where you are...

..but you couldn't have done it
without some very special people.

Aww...
Here we go.

So welcome to
the MasterChef kitchen...

..your loved ones!

Yes!

(CHEERING)

Oh! I'm so proud of you.

Come on up, guys.

We want to meet you all.

I can't believe it.

Pezza, do you want to introduce us
to your family?

Yeah, for sure.
This is my lovely wife, Jennifer.

My lovely daughter, Soph.

My boy, Austin.

So that's Ogger.

And this is my oldest boy, Isaac.

Nat, who have you got here?

I've got my dad, Han.

Um, I've got my brother Nathan,

my other brother, Narong.

And then my mum, Natsiri.

Missed you, too, bub.

Austin, is your dad an alright cook?

Yeah. He's not too bad.

(LAUGHTER)

He does a pretty good, uh, steak
at home.

Yes.

He does a pretty good steak here,
too.

Yeah.
We know!

Jen, was there any doubt in your mind
that Pezza would make it to the end?

To be honest,
I didn't think he'd get this far,

but, um, as he's gone,
I've known he's grown

and very, very proud of him.

Thanks, bub.

Pezza, what's it like
having everyone here?

Oh, I'm super stoked.
I've missed them.

We're always together.

And, um, you know,
I've talked about it,

but I guess now today,
you can see it.

They're my life.

ANDY: Natsiri, how do you feel

about Nat being right here
in the Grand Finale?

Like, this is the biggest cooking
competition in the world!

I don't know what to say, you know,
because I saw Nat cooking,

but sometimes it's not really
serious at all.

She just put this and this and this
and this...

You know, anything in my kitchen,
she just put, put, put, put, put,

then become nice and tasty.

So I copy her now.

(LAUGHTER)

I copy!

That is the identical answer
my mum gave

when she was in that position.

Well, I can definitely say for sure
you have inspired her so much

to cook the food
that she cooks in this kitchen.

I'm proud of her,

really, really, really proud of her.

I know, I know. No, I know.

We've always been close,
but this has just...

We're so much closer.

Like, nothing could have gotten us
this close.

Are you OK?

Aw!

Oh... (SPEAKS THAI)

I've never seen my dad cry,
I don't think.

Oh.

Families, thank you so much
for allowing Nat and Pezza

to follow their dreams
in the MasterChef kitchen.

It means so much to us.

Alright. Head on up to the gantry.

(CHEERING)

PEZZA: I'm so happy
to see them all here.

And they say they're proud of me

and that sort of, I guess,
makes me feel proud.

So it's a really, um...

It's a happy moment,
there's no doubt about it.

(APPLAUSE)

Alright, let's do this.

The Grand Finale will take place
over two rounds.

Wow.

Your fate in Round 1 will be
determined by these ingredients.

Fennel...

(AUDIENCE OOHS)

..lemongrass...

(AUDIENCE OOHS)

..black peppercorns...

(AUDIENCE OOHS)

Interesting.

..mint...

Mm.

..and baby leeks.

OK, OK, OK.

Of course, it's not as simple as
picking what you want to cook with.

Yeah.

Instead, you'll each take it
in turns to pick an ingredient

you DON'T want in the mix.

Ohhh.

Lucky I didn't say what I wanted!

(LAUGHTER)

Whichever ingredient is left over
must be used

in both your dishes.

Come and grab a token to determine
who picks first.

Strategy for Round 1 is to knock off
the ingredients that Nat wants.

That's the way I'm thinking.

If it's me and her against something
that she's more familiar with,

I don't stand a chance.

Pezza, you're up first.

Which one of these five ingredients
are you taking off the table?

Take the lemongrass off the table.

(APPLAUSE)

I feel like there was a bit
of strategy straight up there, mate.

I just don't cook well with it.

Oh, yeah?

Yes.

OK. Lemongrass is gone.

Nat, your pick.
Leeks.

Leeks... I didn't even finish.

Baby leeks.

Pezza, we're back to you, mate.

Fennel.

Oh!

Fennel.

Why are you removing this?

I think I can come up with
a nice dish

with either-or of those two.

Whoa.

Two ingredients left.

Nat, you have the last decision
to make.

There's mint and pepper.

And, for me,
I'm going to pick something

that will give me a chance
to score

as many points as possible
in Round 1.

I'm going to get rid of mint.

OK.

Yeah.

Locking it in.
Getting rid of the mint.

Yeah.

Wow.
The mint is gone.

Pepper's very level playing field.

I don't know if I should say it,

but that is
what I wanted to cook with!

(APPLAUSE)

So you both pretty much
got what you wanted.

BOTH: Yeah.
Oh, yes, it is game on.

Mm-hm.

You'll have a total of 75 minutes.

(EXHALES)

You've got to bring us
a Grand Finale-worthy dish,

whatever that means,
totally up to you.

But you must use black peppercorns.

Round 1, there's a total
of 40 points on offer.

Remember, every single point counts.

Jean-Christophe, would you like
to do the special honours?

Oh, oui, bien sur.

Good luck.

Your time starts...
(LOUDLY) ..now!

(CHEERING)

Peppercorn, we've got to use.

Ooh, is that karkalla?

I've got this. Woo!

You know what's really interesting?

We had a very levelling ingredient.

We had chicken, me and Jules, right?

And I went for more chicken-y

and she showed
more technical improvement.

(CHEERING)

He's got his favourite ammunitions -
meat.

Got a bit of Tassie in here,

and that's what we need
in this place.

I'd better show them
that I've learned something

while I've been away
and they've had the shop going.

I'm just so proud to have the wife
and the kids over top of me today,

so I'm really channelling them
in this dish.

The butcher!
He can do that like breathing.

I'm pumped. I'm really pumped.

I'm going to do a ribeye
with a peppercorn sauce.

That's where the peppercorn
is going to come into it

with some Brussels sprouts.

The boys love ribeyes.

They're butchers
and they love their steak.

Wife loves the peppercorn sauce.

The daughter loves Brussels sprouts.

No kids like Brussels sprouts.

So we're going to do
the Brussels sprouts

a bit different today,
I'm going to actually puree some.

Then I'm going to cut some in half

and roast them and put them on top
of the puree.

And then finish it all off
with a nice little potato fondant.

You might think simple, but it's me.

It's got all the flavours I love.

I'm a butcher, I love meat.

I've just got to put a little bit
of a spin on the vegies,

and that's why I'm doing
the Brussels sprout puree.

And then the hero of the dish

is going to be
that black peppercorn sauce.

You've got it, Pez! Let's go, Pez!

It's the brief.
It's our main ingredient.

So it's going to be one of
the main components of this dish.

Watching you, Pezza!

Round 1, I'm gonna stay true
to what I believe in,

the way I cook, and just put up
a dish that's a real ripper.

(CHEERING)

Go, Nat!
Go, Nat!

Do you know what she's making?

I think I have an idea.

Have you got an idea?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah?

I want to make a classic pub meal,
but make it Thai.

Ooh, eggs.

She's got shrimp paste.

My whole entire family,

if we're not eating at home,
we'll go catch up at the pub,

and we would take chilli oil with us

to eat with whatever we're eating.

The smell...

Mm, made me hungry already.

Nat!
Hello!

Grand Finale! Family watching down.

It's pretty wild!
What's the dish?

So, today, I'm making
a sai ua Scotch egg.

Wow!
Thai sausage.
Scotch egg?!

Do you want to know why
I have my concerned face on?

Yeah. Go on.

Scotch eggs are hard...
To pull off. Yeah.

Hard to pull off.

There's so much pressure to get
that perfect cook on the yolk.

How do you want the yolk?
I want the yolk to be runny.

OK.
It needs to be runny.

Black pepper,
where's that in the dish?

Black pepper is going to be bang-on
straight into the sai ua mix

which is a northern Thai sausage.

There's a lot of chilli.
There's a lot of turmeric.

There's a lot of galangal.
It's quite spicy.

I have to balance it
so that the black pepper shines.

You've got a mission!
Thank you. I am on a mission.

Come on, Nat!

Good luck.

(CHEERING)

Pezza.
Hi, chefs. How are we doing?

Good, mate. How are you?
I'm good.

How's a bit of Grand Finale
energy going?

Yeah. No, you've sort of hit me
every way today.

Brought the family in,
I was excited.

Go, Dad!

Back in your happy place?
Back in my happy place.

Round 1 - such an important round

when it comes to
someone lifting that trophy up.

Yeah.
What are you gonna cook?

Today's the day
to stick with what I know.

So I'm going to do a ribeye,

some potato fondants...

..with a peppercorn sauce.

You know, the missus,
she loves the peppercorn.

I'm going to do the Brussels sprouts
two different ways.

I'm going to have
a roasted Brussels sprout

I'm going to cook on the hibachi
to give that real little glaze.

Oh, yeah.
And then I'm gonna puree them.

Brussels sprout puree?
Yep.

Never pureed them before in my life.
So...

Very interesting to see
what's going to happen.

What happens when you cook
Brussels sprouts for a long time?

They go dark and they smell.
They smell.

Yep.

Is today the day to be
pulling something out of the bag

that you've never done before?

We'll see.

Come on, Pezza!

PEZZA: The judges are really worried
about the Brussels sprout puree,

and I know they're worried
because I've never done it before.

But I'm still going to stick
with the same idea

that I had to start with.

Are you sticking to your gun?

I am at this stage. (LAUGHS)

Sorry, mate.

It's the Grand Finale.

And I'm sick of coming second.

I'm always second.

I've coached a lot of footy

and I've been in, I reckon,
10 grand finals

and we've lost every time.

And you work so hard

and I think it's about time
Pez is ready for a change.

Bring this baby home.

I think if I pull this off,

this could set me above Nat,
and that's what we need.

Good, Pez?

Yeah!

Now we're getting there.

I'm really happy with it.
It tastes really nice.

Ooh. That's a good colour.

Better.

I just hope the judges think
the same way as I do.

Now it's time to get on to this
beautiful black peppercorn sauce.

Perfect.

She's got so much, like,
heat-packing, hey?
Yeah.

She's got poblanos, green chillies
and red chillies as well.

Yeah, that's...
And then she's gonna use pepper.

(CHEERING)
Go, Nat!

That's really spicy.

So the nam phrik num is done,

which is a Thai roasted
green chilli dip.

And I'm getting my eggs ready
to boil.

Whoo!

While the eggs are boiling,

I'm making my curry paste
for my pork mince.

My black pepper is going
to be in mince.

But she must use the black pepper?

Yeah, she must use the black pepper.

Where's the pepper?

There's so many flavours
in this curry paste.

Turmeric, galangal,
kaffir lime, chillies,

shrimp paste, fish sauce,
lime juice.

I haven't said
black peppercorns yet.

I have to get the black peppercorns

to be competing
with these ingredients.

You got it, Nat. You got it.

Mum, how do you think I'm doing?
Good?

Yes, good.

It's better than me now.

She's got a little sous-chef
in the gantry.

Are you going to copy this dish,
Mum?

She looks unsure.

Yeah.
Don't worry about me, Nat!

Just cook!

Now I need to get on the eggs

and I have to wrap it, coat it,
deep-fry it.

It's a lot to do in a small time.
I know.

But if there's anyone that can do
it, it's Nat.

Nice, Nat.
Whoo!

They look like dinosaur eggs.

(IN FRENCH) Attention, attention,
mes amis!

15 minutes to go.

Allez!

Come on, Nat, let's go.

Come on, mate!
Let's go, Dad!

Got the fondants in the oven.

The prosciutto's done.

I've got my Brussels sprout puree
ready to go.

Come on, Dad.

The ribeyes look perfect
on the hibachi.

Time to get them off now
and put them into the oven.

Now it's time to put all my love
into this peppercorn sauce.

Today, he seems so cool.
Yeah, right? It's amazing.

It's so great to see.
Yeah.

The hero of the dish is going
to be that black peppercorn sauce.

It's so rich.

They're only going to want
a little bit, don't get me wrong.

It's probably going to leave
a tingle down their throat,

but that's what I want.

Nice, Pez, come on!

Mm.

Beautiful.

ANDY: Yes. Fried eggs. Yeah, Nat!

It is very hard to get a runny yolk
with a Scotch egg

because you're cooking it twice.

My eggs have been deep-frying
for about four minutes.

The eggs, they can't be over at all.

They have to be oozy.

Holy macaroni.

Why would you make something
that you can't cut open?

I keep coming back to the egg.

Back and forth, back and forth
to check.

My cooking intuition's kicked in.

Nice, Nat!
Oh, they look good.

That's beautiful, Nat.
Thank you.

Yum!

The trophy is on the line.

Three minutes to go.

(CHEERING)

Time to cut this steak.

What do you think of the cook
on Dad's ribeye?

Done alright.

A butcher's way of having a steak.

Butchers know best!
So he keeps telling us.

I'm just going to put
a nice, generous dollop

of this Brussels sprout puree

with these charred,
roasted Brussels sprouts

sitting up to the top.

And then that nice little
prosciutto crumble.

Put two little bits of this ribeye
across the plate.

Finish it with
the two fondue potatoes.

Yum.
Yeah, Pez!

Looks beautiful mate.
Wow, Pez!

I'm happy with this dish.

I know that black peppercorn sauce
is so rich

and so full of peppercorns.

You can just smell it.

It smells so good.

I just hope that sticking
with this Brussels sprout puree

was a good idea.

I look up and my oldest son, Isaac,

I can just see him shaking
his head, like,

as if to say, "You're the man.

"You're the man, Dad."

Come on, Natty!

Yeah. I reckon it's good.

I'm plating up and I'm putting
my Scotch eggs on there.

It's really hard for Scotch eggs,
a classic pub food, to look good.

Right, I'm gonna run to the garden.

Go, Nat!

Forage flowers. Forage flowers.

She moves so fast!

She used to be a sprinter at school!
Yeah.

(CHEERING)

So I'm gonna add caviar,
mayo, finger lime, nam phrik num,

and some pretty flowers.

I really hope that the black pepper
is going to be there

and the eggs are perfectly runny.

Loud as you can, gantry!

10...

ALL: Nine, eight, seven, six,

five, four,

three, two, one!

Look at that!

Let's taste your dish, Nat.

(APPLAUSE)

Nat, what have you made us?

I've made a sai ua Scotch egg

with nam phrik num.

Nat, I love how, right to the end,
you've been the risk-taker.

And up till now, we do not know

how those eggs are cooked
on the inside.

Yeah...

Shall we find out?
Yes, please.

Oh, I'm nervous for you.

I'm nervous as well.

I don't even know
if I want to watch.

Whoo! I'm sweating.

Oh, my God, I'm actually so nervous.

Oh!
Oh!

Yeah, girl!

(APPLAUSE)

She's definitely gooey.

Two for two, Nat!

It's gooey.
It's a good start.

Well done, Nat.

One other big question
that we need answered...

..but we'll only know that
when we taste it.

Where is the black pepper?

Nat...

If you asked me to advise,
I would say please don't do it.

Garlic. Chilli. Shallots.

You went for
the full-on big-time ingredients.

Where, to one point,
I said to myself,

"There's no way on Earth

"that we can possibly get
the black pepper

"out of your dish."

And I was wrong.

Because it doesn't come at first,
but it comes after.

Thank you.

It's really, really, really good.

You're so clever with flavours.

That nam phrik num,

you can taste
all of that chilli heat in there.

And just when you think
it's about to blow the absolute crap

out of your head...

..the pepper comes in
from your sai ua coating

on your perfectly oozy egg,
and it sort of takes over.

I can really taste
the galangal in there.

There's still so much Thai
in this dish,

even though it doesn't look
typically Thai.

Nat, it is so delicious.

At first, I thought,
"I don't really need the mayo."

I thought that was a little bit
of a superfluous thing.

But I think it works.

Sometimes it needs something
that's weaker

to act as a foil to bring out

the flavours in
something that's stronger,

and that's what the mayo has done.

And that is
very, very clever cooking.

You pull out a Thai Scotch egg
with finger lime, caviar, mayonnaise

and a nam phrik num that would blow
our heads off on a day like today.

And then you make that have a fight
against black pepper,

which is meant to be the star
of the show.

For the record,
I don't think they're fighting.

I think they're making love.

I love that.

That is why we love you.

That is why you're so good.

That is why you look so normal
in chef whites.

And that is why I will be coming
to your restaurant

to order this dish off the menu

and have the best time
and be like a proud, proud dad.

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

Pezza...

(APPLAUSE)

Pezza. Round 1, Grand Finale.

What have you made?

Today, chefs, I've made
for you a ribeye steak,

peppercorn sauce,
Brussels sprout puree

with some roasted Brussels sprouts

that I've topped with prosciutto
and a maple syrup glaze.

Pezza, you've stuck to your guns.

You've stuck to who you are.

The ribeye...

It's perfect.

Perfect blushing medium rare,

beautiful char,

hint of smoke in there,

and you couldn't have done it
any better.

This is Grand Finale food.

But the puree,
the Brussels Sprout puree...

..it's just a touch grainy.

(EXHALES)

I think that you did the best
you possibly could.

Because any more,

and the flavour just would
have been all out of whack.

You would have lost
that beautiful, sweet earthiness.

But the flavour, which is
where it matters, is there.

The sauce...

I could smell how spicy it was.

That was just ringing
with that black pepper.

When you taste it,
it's almost slightly bitter

with the peppercorns,

but I love that.

One of your little weapons
has been sauce making,

and you can see and taste
the love in it.

And I love that this whole plate
are little nods to your family.

What you've done
time and time again, Pezza,

is shown us
and shown everybody else

you can take something
from everyday household

to hatted restaurant,
and that's what you've done today.

JEAN-CHRISTOPHE: Your steak,
it is brilliant.

The cuisson...

You could even cook it
closing your eyes.

Your mash -

how you dare doing sprout mash
on the final?

Are you mad?!

So it's light, it's tasty.

It matched with the steak,

when you get your steak to it,
and your fondant.

And that is superb.

It's what you are.

You've done what you believe

and what you've become
from MasterChef here in a final.

Well done.

Nice work, Pezza!
(APPLAUSE)

What a brilliant start.

Let's see how you scored.

Nat...

Chef.

..your scotch egg was...

..superb...

..and I gave you

9 out of 10.

(CHEERING)

You can add that dish to your menu.

I gave it...

..9 out of 10.

(CHEERING)

I scored you...

..a 9 out of 10.

High-risk, high reward...

..9 out of 10!

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

So, Nat, that means for Round 1,

that's a total score of 36 out of 40.

(APPLAUSE)

Now, Pezza...

..that sauce was packed
with punchy peppercorns.

I gave you...

..an 8 out of 10!

I gave it...

..an 8 out of 10!

(CHEERING)

I give Pez...

..an 8 out of 10.

(APPLAUSE)

I gave you...

..9 out of 10.

(CHEERING)

Which means, for Round 1, Pezza,
you scored 33 out of 40. Well done.

(CHEERING)

Oh, I'm really annoyed with myself.

I'm three points down
and it's hard to come from behind.

I definitely don't want to be
second. I'm always second.

One down, one to go.

That's just how I've been in life.

Sorry.

I just hope that I can get my head
around it

and do myself and the family proud.

One round down and one to go.

Round 2 is a pressure test.

And because it's your last cook
in this kitchen,

it's a dish set by
an absolute phenomenon.

Oh.

This one's proper, guys.

(CHUCKLES)
Oh-oh!

This chef has been trained
by the best of the best.

Who could it be?

A weapon honed
by Gordon Ramsay himself.

She went on to become the first
and only British female chef

to be awarded three Michelin stars
for her restaurant in London.

Her second restaurant in Sydney
is one of the few

that have earned
an astounding three Hats.

Put simply, she is one of
the greatest chefs in the world.

From Core and Oncore,

please welcome

the formidable Clare Smyth!

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

Oh, my God, in the flesh!

We have a three-Michelin-star chef
in the kitchen.

It is so insane.

I'm worried for them.

There have been
some difficult pressure tests,

but this one is
100% going to take the cake.

Clare, welcome back
to the MasterChef kitchen.

Oh, it's so, so good to be here.

I'm so excited for today.

How's things going
at Core and Oncore?

Yeah. Great. Great. Very lucky.

Very, very fortunate.

Two amazing restaurants
on other sides of the world,

you know, the sister of each other.

This dish sits on both Core
and Oncore's menu, at the moment.

It does, yes.

Three-Michelin-star, here we come.

(GANTRY EXCLAIMS WITH ANTICIPATION)

This dish is probably
our most celebrated

and favourite dessert
from our customers.

Wow.

It's incredibly technical,

but it should be something
that is quite familiar to you.

You'll recognise the flavours.

Are you ready to find out
what it is?

Yep.
Yes!

Today, you will be making my...

(GASPING)

..Core Teaser.

Whoo-hoo!

Wow, Pez!

Wow!

PEZZA: I was feeling
a little bit down after Round 1,

but pressure test, dessert -

I feel alright,
that's what I was hoping for.

Because I've done well
in pressure tests before,

especially the sweet ones.

(EXHALES SHARPLY)
Nat, your face just said it all!

What are you thinking?
Oh, I'm thinking dessert...

Gosh!

Oh, my God, I'm freaking out.

I have not done
a dessert pressure test yet.

My first one is about to be
in the grand finale.

I'm screwed.

Do you want to come in
and have a look?
Yeah.

No!

I thought it was going to be wow,

but this is wowzers.

This dish looks epic
and unbelievable.

But it looks so beautiful,

like a big Malteser.

(CRUNCHING)

Oh, hoo-hoo-hoo!

JEAN-CHRISTOPHE: Wow, look at this.

Oh, my gosh.

CLARE: So, you'll have
the malt puff,

which is sitting on the base,

which kind of like lifts
the actual Core Teaser up.

Then we have a hazelnut ice-cream.

We have
some milk chocolate feathers.

There's a crisp feuilletine base
with chocolate.

Then you have a chocolate cremeux.

In the centre,
you've got aerated dark chocolate,

and then on the top,
you've got a malt mousse.

That then is obviously sprayed
in chocolate.

It's five things in one tiny thing.

Are you ready to taste?
Yeah.

Can't wait for this,
'cause it is insane.

(CRUNCHING)

Wow.

Oh, my God,
it tastes like Maltesers.
It tastes like...

It really does!
It tastes like Maltesers!

Oh, it tastes so good!

I have never had
a Malteser like this before.

It's just so complex in flavour.

You get, like, layers of hazelnut

and then you get
layers of chocolate,

and then you get layers
of, like, beautiful malt.

It's so delicately done.

It's going to be hard
to pull this off.

So, the aerated chocolate,

you want it to be
as light as possible.

If you over-inflate it,
it will collapse

and you'll have to start again.

Same thing with the malt puff.

When you're souffleing it up,

you're making a giant Malteser,
basically,

and it's going to be,
like, this big ball of air.

So, again,
you need to be super careful.

There is actually 113 steps.

Doesn't surprise me.

She's going to be a big cook
and, uh, yeah, very, very daunting.

I've done this before.

I know I can do this.

It has never been more important
to mirror both the look and the taste

as accurately as you can,

because, at the end of this cook,

one of you will be our winner.

The recipe, equipment
and ingredients that you need

are at your benches.

You'll have...

..four hours to complete your dish.

Oh, that is so tight.

Each of us will score your dish
out of 10.

That total,

it will be added to those scores
from Round 1,

and that will determine our winner.

Clare, do you want to do the honours?

I wish you the very best of luck.

And your time starts...

..now.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

MAN: Let's go, Nat!

WOMAN: Go, Pezza!

Let's go! Woo!

This will be the first time
that I'm looking Nat cooking sweet.

Really? Oh, wow.
Hmm.

Big day.
Hmm.

NAT: Pezza definitely has
an advantage,

because he's done
two dessert pressure tests.

He's done some of the elements
before

that are on Clare's plate.

I literally haven't done
any of these elements.

My desserts in the kitchen
have not gone well.

Oh.

Jenga!

It's not set. I'm not doing it.

I think for the desserts
I find it really hard

because everything needs
to be to temperature,

everything needs to be to the gram.

There's no room for error.

And I don't have to do that
with savoury dishes.

So this is gonna be so hard.

I'm terrified.
I'm genuinely terrified.

So, I'm gonna go with
what I know best,

which is have a list.

For me, I work really well going
through all the different elements.

And I have a timer for everything,
just to make sure I know,

I guess, like, where I'm going.

The first element I need to do
is my milk chocolate cremeux,

which is inside the bottom half
of the entremet.

Clare's milk chocolate cremeux was
so, so light

and the flavours were
beautiful and silky.

I've never made anything like this.

I haven't even made
anything close to this.

So this is all new.

Milk...

..cream.

Milk, cream, milk, cream,
milk, cream.

NATSIRI: Good, Nat. Step by step.

AUSTIN: Let's go, Dad.

PEZZA: I know
I'm three points behind Nat,

but I love pressure tests.

I think I can bounce on top here.

MIMI: Hustle, Pez.

I love reading recipes.

WOMAN: That is consistency.
That is oozing out.

He's nailed it.

And I've been really good
in pressure tests.

POH: It's pretty good. Pretty good!

You've got to relax
and you've got to just let it flow.

That's where I've been at my best
in these ones.

What's up, Pezza?

Hey, chef.
You're looking good now.

You've changed.
I can see you're going for it.

Thanks, chef.
Come on.

Starting to lift, chef.

Excellent.

All the best, Pezza.
Thank you.

I've done my little chocolate, uh...

..creme...cream,
or whatever that word is.

And now I'm on to the malt mousse,

which is the top layer
of the entremet.

It's just got its beautiful,
silky texture.

It was that real Malteser flavour.

Right. Here we go.

I've got three types of cream
that I've just got to whip

and fold through my malt mixture

to give it
that light and creamy texture.

I finish off my malt mousse,
and I'm really happy with it.

And now it's time to move on
to the chocolate base.

SOPH: Doing good, Dad.

(READS TO SELF)

After 15 minutes...

I feel super stressed right now,

because it feels like
I'm learning a new language,

and it's, like,
a three-Michelin-star language.

(READS TO SELF)

(MUMBLES TO SELF INDISTINCTLY)

..once it's hot,
slowly pour over the eggs,

whisking continuously.

Wait a minute.

I'm working on my malt mousse,

but I've not even made a mousse
before,

and this is so crucial
to the entremet.

11.6 is done.

80g of fresh cream.

I've got the cream in.

There's two parts of the cream
that goes into this malt mousse.

DARRSH: I don't know
why she's doing it like that.

I'm folding the cream in
with the malt mix and...

Goddammit!

Cream - whipped double cream.

I just realised I forgot
to put my double cream

with my whipped cream.

(EXHALES STRONGLY) OK.

That is not good.

And I can't just add it in now,
so I have to start again.

What?

I basically have only done
two elements

and I've already done
a massive mistake.

God, not a great start.

There is just three points
between you

and you've got three hours to go.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

Go, Nat!
Let's go, Nat.

Cream - whipped double cream.

I'm working on my malt mousse,

and I just realised
I forgot to put my double cream in.

(SIGHS)

I have to start again.

This is such a crucial part
of the entremet. I have to do it.

This is the grand finale.

Everything needs to be perfect.

But I'm going to lose time here.

What am I doing next?

So I'm going to have to try
and multi-task right now,

set a timer for my malt and my milk
on the stove

and start on the anglaise
for my hazelnut ice-cream.

I just have to read carefully.

I feel like so many things are
not going

the way I want it to right now.

Double-check, double-check,
double-check.

Go, Pez!

HARRY: Keep moving, mate.
You got this.

I need a beer.
Yeah.

(LAUGHTER)

I've done my chocolate cream
and the malt mousse.

I've done my little chocolate base,

and I've just started
on my hazelnut ice-cream.

Clare's hazelnut ice-cream was

one of the best ice-creams
I've ever had.

It was so intense
with that roasted hazelnut flavour,

and it's so creamy and luscious.

That's what I'm going for.

JUAN: Nice?
Tastes really yum.

My hazelnut anglaise tastes
like Clare's.

I'm really happy with it.

Now it's just time
to put it into the blast freezer

and to move on
to the chocolate aerated disc.

This aerated chocolate disc sits
in the middle of the entremet.

Clare's was so beautiful and bubbly,

like, it just disintegrates
in your mouth with nothing.

Your dad's turned into Willy Wonka.

(LAUGHTER)

AUSTIN: Does that make us
your Oompa Loompas?

(LAUGHTER)

I put the chocolate
in the canister...

..aerate it up,

and I've got to zig zag it
across this sealed vacuum container.

The recipe says
to use all the mixture,

and I need to let the chocolate
double in size

so I have enough to work with.

I've done a few tie-down straps
before.

Tied the young fella's motorbike
on the back of his bus.

But that's about all I've got going
for me in this.

It's definitely different.

I'm just hoping that,
when I put it in the vacuum machine,

it comes out beautiful and bubbly.

Come on.

It comes up beautifully and quick.

I'm straight on to the button.

It's stayed up where I want.

It's got to go
into the blast freezer to set

before I cut those little discs out.

Yeah, Dad!

(CHEERING)

Woo!

I've never tempered chocolate
like this before.

This is crazy.

SAV: Yeah, Nat, work that chocolate.

Yes, Nat,
straight in tempering chocolate.

How are you going?

Um, this tempering chocolate
situation is taking way longer

than I thought it would.
Yeah.

Dessert, pressure test, grand final.

This is really hard.

Clare, how's the tempering
looking to you?

Yeah, I mean, it's looking good.

I'm about to put this into a...

Whoo-hoo! ..siphon gun!

Yep.
Remove 500ml.

(MUTTERS TO SELF)

So I don't need to start again.

There's a lot of bubbles
in there, but that's OK.

Is that because I'm whisking?
I have no idea.

Nat, who are you speaking to?

I'm talking to myself.
Just checking.

Yeah.
Well, Nat, keep it up.

Working quickly.
I've got to work quickly.

Thank you.

I feel very overwhelmed
trying to get all the elements done.

God.
NATSIRI: Slow down.

Slow down, Nat.

It's alright, Nat.

Leave that in there, just in case.

In the recipe, it says
it needs to double in size.

I think it's aerated enough,

so I need to let it set
in the blast chiller.

Grand finalists,
you're halfway through.

Two hours to go!

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

Let's go!

Let's go, Pezza!
Let's go, Pezza!

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

PEZZA: I take the aerated chocolate
out of the blast freezer.

I'm so happy with it.

Nice, Pezza.

I just can't believe
I'm in the grand finale

and everything's going
really, really well.

So I'm feeling really good,

and now it's time to cut it
into its little disc.

It's going to take some doing,
isn't it?

I think we can get
a centimetre out of it.

Yeah, Pezza.
(APPLAUSE AND ENCOURAGEMENT)

ANDY: Let's go.

Loving it!

Ooh, hers hasn't aerated enough...

I'm a bit worried
about Nat's aerated chocolate.

She didn't use all the chocolate.

I mean, half of it's still left
in the bowl.

Well, that's...that's
a good 200-300g.

Uh-huh.

Oh.

I'm struggling quite a lot
to cut this aerated chocolate.

(GASPS)

And it's starting to crumble.

Gentle.
Gentle, gentle.

MIMI: What is she doing?
LILY: Oh, God.

Oh, God.

Oh, sugar!

NAT: I'm, like, terrified right now.

Oof.

Oh, my God.

I'm struggling to cut
this aerated chocolate.

And I'm freaking out.

Watching this just gives me
so much anxiety.
I know!

NATSIRI: Gentle.

It's literally crumbling apart.

See how much chocolate's left
in the bowl over there?

Yeah.
That's what's gone wrong.

Does it say to use
all of the chocolate?

Yeah, yeah.
Oh, wow.

And I don't know how to save it.

Oh, my God.

And this is the second element
I've struggled with.

Oh, I can't believe it.

It's just not working.

I'm just so disappointed in myself.

Even though I'm three points ahead,

I can feel the trophy slipping away.

For most of my life,

I never felt
like I'd fit in anywhere.

But coming onto MasterChef...

..has made me realise
that I belong here.

I know now
that I want to become a chef.

So I can't just give up.

I need to pull myself together
and get this done.

I need to try as hard as I can,
because I want to win.

(ENCOURAGING SHOUTS AND APPLAUSE)

I am just gonna have to use
what I've got.

And I'm hoping for the best.

Now I have to start
on my milk chocolate feathers.

OK, mes amis, we are in the final.

It's a lot to do,

and it's the best moment
of your life.

One and half hour to go, please!

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
Come on!

Come on!

You got it, Nat!

PEZZA: I've finished
my chocolate feathers.

Things are looking good.

Everything's starting
to come together.

I'm on to assembling the entremet,

so that's the main thing.

It needs to get in. It needs an hour
to set before I spray it.

The entremet needs to be perfect.

The balance and the flavours
have got to be exactly the same

as Clare's.

You want 50/50 of the chocolate
and the malt,

and plus you've got to get
that aerated chocolate disc

in the middle,

plus the base on there.

It's one of the most important parts
of this dish.

I want to do it justice,

and I want to do it
really, really well.

Yeah, whoo!
Well done, Pezza!

Well done, Nat!
Yeah!

But there's no time to rest.

Because now it's time
to go onto the malt sugar puff.

The malt sugar puff is the thing
that sets this whole dish alive.

It gave the dish all the height,

it gave it the look,

and it just tastes like
the inside of a Malteser but better.

So if it's not perfect, it's going
to let down the whole dish.

NAT: I'm starting on my malt puff.

And the first thing I need to do
is make a caramel

with the malt powder.

Five more!

It needs to get to 128 degrees,

and then I need to put it
onto some silicone mat.

Can you flick me some, Nat?

Oh, I wish.

SUE: Hers is a bit thicker.

It looks creamy.
SNEZ: That's interesting.

At this stage, both of them
are working on their malt caramel,

and they look
completely different.

Why are they doing
completely different things?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.

SNEZ: Pezza's malt mix,
it's light in colour,

it's very thin.

Nat's is a bit more thicker
and darker,

and it looks like
quite different texture.

Same recipe, different results.

I'm so confused.

SNEZ: This element is so crucial
for this dish

because it needs to puff up
like a ball.

And I don't know who's right.

I don't know who made a mistake.

They both look completely different.

What can happen there, when they go
to actually do the puffing?

I mean, ultimately,
it just won't puff up.

And you know it's the most important
part of the dish, right?

It's that crunch.

It's that texture.

It's the Malteser part of the dish.
ANDY: Yeah, the three-star element.

Yeah. It's everything.

We don't know who's doing it right.
We don't know who's right.

Who's right and who's wrong.

Oh, my God, this is so stressful.

My heart's beating so fast
right now.

It's agony.

Oh, my goodness.

Oh, wow!
ALL: Whoa!

Go, Nat!

I'm so happy,
but it looks like an alien.

Not good, not good.

Definitely not good.

Not anywhere near what I want.

Something's gone wrong
with this malt sugar puff.

It shrunk. It hasn't worked.

And I just can't believe it.

I'm really gutted now.

One of the key elements
in this dish,

my favourite element in this dish,

has just gone pear shaped
really quickly.

He's struggling.

You're not going to get much
out of him now.

No.

Why today? Why today
did this have to happen?

I've already probably taken defeat.

I think I'm done.

Because I feel, like, lost again.

I'm always second.

That's just how I've been in life.

And I just hate that.

I feel like just walking out.

But that's not the person I am.

Go, Dad!

I haven't got time to do it again,

but I'm going to try and save it.

Keep going!
Keep up, Josh!

You got it.

Do not give up, Josh.

I'm thinking if I put it
in the fridge,

it might make it hard enough
so I can crumble it

and then go on to the next step.

15 minutes to go!

Yes, Nat!

15 minutes left of the cook,

and I need to get my entremets
out of the mould to spray.

That's it. Come on. Yes.

It comes out and it looks beautiful.

Oh, my God.

And now I'm ready to spray
my chocolate all over my entremet.

(CHEERING)

Come on, mes amis, please hurry up!

10 minutes to go, please.

Looking good!

I finished spraying the entremets.

I'm really happy with it.

And now it's time
to go back to the malt puff.

I've taken the malt sugar puff
out of the fridge.

This is my last chance
to get this right

because I'm running out of time.

I really hope it works.

It's not working.

It's no good.

It's no good.

I think I'm just gonna have
to leave that one off.

Hey, come to terms with it.
Move on.

Nail the rest of the components.

Keep pushing, Pez.

I'm just so gutted.

It still hasn't worked.

I don't know
where this is going to lead me.

Almost there.
Don't lose it in the last bit.

Thanks.
Come on, Dad. Keep going.

Come on, Dad, you're doing good!

(IN FRENCH) Attention! Attention!

You have three minutes left to go!

I have every element for
Clare Smyth's Core Teaser dish.

That is crazy.

Come on, Nat. You got this.

That was an insane cook.

You know, I had to remake
a couple of elements,

but it's all there,

and I'm very, very happy.

Wow!

I can't believe I just made
a three-Michelin-star dessert

in the grand finale.

Yeah, Natty!

SOFIA: For the final time...

10...

ALL: Nine, eight,

seven, six, five,

four, three, two, one!

(CHEERING)

Sorry, bub.

Love you.

(SOBBING) I'm sorry.

Don't be sorry.
We're proud of you.

(CHEERING)

It's alright.

We're proud of ya.

So proud.
We're proud of you.

Nothing went to plan.
It's OK.

It's all good.

Righto, you guys.

Come on.
So proud.

So proud!

Thanks, guys.

You got this.

Chefs.

Pezza.

How are you really feeling?

Yeah, I'm just a bit flat.

Yeah.

I just feel like
I've let the family down today,

and you guys.

To not, um...

To not complete the dish,

that's what really hurts.

(HOLDS BACK TEARS) Oh, shit.

I just want you to do something.

I want you to look down at the M

and then look next door,

and then look where you are.

There are many ways that
a bloke can let his family down,

but this ain't one of them.

This is not one of them.

Thank you.

I think the flavours
are definitely going to be there,

and I'm proud of what I've put
in front of you guys.

Well, Pezza, we love you,
and that's never going to change.

For the final time,
we're going to taste your dish.

Thanks, Pez.
Thank you.

SOFIA: Thanks, Pezza.
It's been a good ride.

Missing a couple of bits,
but I hope you enjoy, guys.

Thanks, mate. Well done.
Thank you.

POH: Thank you, Josh.

Well, look, I mean,

obviously,
it's missing the malt part.

But the actual main part
of the Core Teaser itself

looks really sharp.

Mm.

That entremet looks pretty epic.

The spray he's got
on that dome looks so good.

SOFIA: Alright,
I reckon we should give it a taste.

I'll go...

It looks pretty good!
Look at that.

Looks pretty good layers in there.

That is...near perfect.
JEAN-CHRISTOPHE: Look at it.

Yeah, look, I mean,
it looks great on the inside,

and look at that chocolate.

(WHISPERS) Oh, my God.

Wow.
Oh, my God.

I mean, I think that's delicious.

You know, he has nailed the flavour.

The texture, it's light,

you have the crunch
of the chocolate, the base.

The hazelnut ice-cream -

just the flavour,
he's absolutely nailed it.

And even, you know, those feathers,
they're tempered.

You know, they've got a...

They've got a crunch.

I'm seriously impressed.

It's delicious to eat.

I mean it's a shame
it's missing the malt,

but he's done such a good job.

The ice-cream,
I've smelled it 10 metres away.

And it delivered
exactly what I smelled.

That lovely nutty flavour.

Just perfect! Malt cream.

To replicate Maltesers' flavours
to a sweet like that

with so many different components,

and having
this chocolate cremeux,

they're both equally giving
that flavour,

which is unbelievable.

It is just such a shame

that he didn't quite get
that malt sugar puff right,

because that is
such a joyous component of the dish.

I was there when the devastation
of that malt puff deflated,

and Pezza turned to me, and it was
just a look of defeat on his face,

and he could have easily fallen
to pieces then.

POH: Yeah!

But he's created an entremet,
which really

I don't have many complaints about.

No.

I've only got good things
to talk about.

This challenge absolutely comes down
to what looks and tastes

the most like Clare's dish.

So that missing malt puff
is a really significant minus.

That's the thing -
if you're going to miss an element,

you always need to make sure
what you've got on the plate

is executed to the highest degree,

and that's what he's done.

We've got to wait
and see what happens.

Hey, Nat.
Hey, Nat.

OK.

Hello.

You just achieved

your first-ever
dessert pressure test...

Yep.

..which was
a three-Michelin-star dish

in the grand finale.

How does that feel?

Feels pretty crazy.

I just feel very honoured
to have done this dish

on the grand finale.

Definitely did not realise
what I was going in for, though.

I had so much trouble.

Um, I was just like...

I felt like I was slowly drowning.

Yeah, it was...it was hard.

So, Nat,

we only have one thing to do.

Yeah.

It's to taste your dish.

(JUDGES EXCLAIM)

Thank you, and good luck to you.
SOFIA: Thanks, Nat. Well done.

Yeah. I mean, she's got
all the elements there.

I mean, you know,
she's got the wow factor

and the height of the dish
and the drama.

Alright, here we go.

Moment of truth.

I just want to take a...

I want to take a bite
out of the top.

(CRUNCH)
Ooh!

ANDY: Had that same sound.

Good noise.

There it is. Looks good.

Look, Nat has to get huge points
on getting that malt puff up...

..because that was
the most technical part

of this dish.

And then I think the flavours
of the entire dish

were pretty bang on.

But I got a big piece of gelatine
in my malt mousse.

POH: (GASPS) Really?
Like a monster. Yeah.

SOFIA: That's chunky.

JEAN-CHRISTOPHE: And the same
for me. I got two pieces there.

Oh, my God.
On a small bite, yeah.

And that's the malt mousse
that she made twice.

So obviously, on the second go,
she just rushed it.

I think so, yeah.

She hasn't dissolved the gelatine
through the base.

So, flavours are good,
textures are off.

Yeah. I mean,
she achieved the dish...

Yes.
..in the time, for sure.

Everything is there.

The layers looked good.

They were precise.

The aerated chocolate
in the middle was good.

You know, it's got enough air in it
just to be light and cut through.

And you've got
all that lovely sort of crunch.

But, yeah, there were...there were
faults also in this dish.

POH: It almost just evaporated.

Even before you had time
to think about it,

it was gone.

And this one definitely reads
more heavily on the palate.

For me, it comes down
to appearances, texture and flavour.

And when we look at Nat's dish
on appearances...

..that feeling of electricity
that ran through my body

when I saw that dish,

I was like, "Yes, girl, go!"

Flavours for Nat -
also really, really strong.

She gets the nuttiness
of the hazelnut

throughout her ice-cream.

But the mistakes that she's made
on the textures

are actually really affecting
the way I'm tasting the dish.

For me, it's a lack of refinement.

It's a final.

This is...the gelatine
was not melted enough.

On one hand, you've got a dish that

what was on the plate
was near perfect,

but it was missing
like the jewel in the crown.

That malt part.

On the other hand,
we've got a completed dish.

Looks beautiful, but with faults.

So it's a tough one for us
to separate.

Mm.

I'm...

I'm really...

Flabbergasted?

Yes.
Uh-huh.

There could not have been
a more epic conclusion

to MasterChef Australia 2024.

That pressure test was insane.

With 113 steps
and no room for error,

every minute was mayhem.

We are so proud of you.

You wanted to make our decision
as difficult as possible.

And, boy, did you do just that.

Pezza, we'll start with you.

Your dish was missing a key element.

And it completely changed
the look of the dish.

But...

..what did make it onto the plate...

..was delicious!

Those flavours were identical
to Clare's.

It's just such a shame
that malt puff wasn't in the mix.

Because of that,

I scored you...

..a 7 out of 10.

Yeah, Pezza!
Go, Pez!

I gave you...

..7 out of 10.

I scored you...

..7 out of 10.

I gave you...

..7 out of 10.

Monsieur Pezza...

..I gave you...

..7 out of 10.
Thank you, chef.

Yes, Pezza!

So, Pezza, that's a score 35.

That brings your total score to 68.

Doing the maths, Nat?
Yep.

That means that you need
at least 33 points from us

to take the title.

Yep.

You had everything on the plate.

It looked incredible.

But...

..when we ate it...

..surprisingly,
there were textural flaws.

So I gave you, Nat...

..7 out of 10.

Nat, I gave you...

..7 out of 10.

Nat.

I am going to give you...

..a 7.

Nat, your dish differed
from Clare's, texturally.

Thankfully, you made up for it
in flavour.

I gave you...

..a 7 out of 10.

Nat.

You did it!

(CHEERING)
Congratulations!

You're the winner
of MasterChef Australia 2024!

Nat, you have just won ¤250,000!

And, of course,

starting this week,

you'll be serving
your signature menu

at Alumni Restaurant,
Crown Melbourne.

Nat!

How are you feeling?

I'm exhausted!

(LAUGHTER)

We are exhausted!

You came up early on.

You had a mission.

You gave everything you had,

competing against such a man
like Pezza,

who is such a good cook.

How do you feel?

I feel so good.

This is... This is crazy.

It feels like a dream but it's not.

It just happens.

I just won MasterChef.

I just won MasterChef!

Pezza, how are you feeling, mate?

I'm happy. Top two of MasterChef.

Biggest cooking show in the world.

Poh got second,
and look what she's done!

So, if the wife comes with me,

we might do something
really special,

and hopefully you guys can all come
and eat there one day.

And we're not paying for the food.
(LAUGHTER)

Well, Pezza,
got some good news for you.

For coming in second place...

..we're giving you ¤40,000!

To help jumpstart
your next adventure.

Whatever it is, we know
you're going to smash it, mate.

And we can't ignore third place -
Sav.

For whatever you choose to do next,

you're getting ¤10,000!

Nat, congratulations.

We are beyond proud of you.

It's finally time.

The moment you've been dreaming of.

Go collect your trophy, girl!
