HAMISH BLAKE: Previously on LEGO Masters...

Yes! (CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)

Welcome to LEGO Masters season three!

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

..16 of the country's most passionate LEGO builders...

Oh, wow! Look at the geisha!

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)

Oh, that looks sick!

Oh, that is phenomenal. LEGO success.

..unleashed their imagination...

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC CONTINUES)

..to stop a train in its tracks...

(GASPING)

..but Sarah and Fleur rose above the rest...

The subtle joke of Sushi Train is awesome.

(BOTH EXCLAIM)

..and took out the sacred Platinum Brick.

It will give you immunity in an elimination

and the ability to play it after you've built.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

Then, a shake-up in the first elimination

saw Gus and David blow the competition away.

Ahh, that's good!

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

BRICKMAN: I can't believe that this early in LEGO Masters,

I've seen a piece of art.

(APPLAUSE)

And it was the end of the line...

I'm happy we're the first ones

due to the fact that there are so many incredible people... (CRIES)

..for Atlanta and Jeff.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE) Good luck, guys!

(JAUNTY INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Tonight...

Each team must combine the DNA

of the two animals that get spun up for them.

That's cool!

..two out-of-this-world builds.

Shark flamingo!

Fantastical creatures that defy science.

SCOTT: Whoa! That looks sick, man!

Whoa!

Then... (CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)

This build is called Mission to Mars.

(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)

..teams bring one of Brickman's greatest creations to life...

Arggh!

..in an elimination that pushes every team to their limit.

By the absolute barest of margins...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

MAN: There we go!

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)

(CHEERING AND WHOOPING)

Let's go!

(LAUGHS) Duck!

Go, go, go!

(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)

Come in.

What is this?

MAN: What's going on today? WOMAN: Uh-oh.

WOMAN: Oh, no! Hello, guys!

WOMAN: Oh, my goodness. (CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

MAN: That looks a lot like a character build.

Oh, no! (LAUGHTER)

I mean, yay! Yay!

(LAUGHTER)

I don't know what you guys are looking at.

No. Nothing.

Oh, you might have noticed the wheel and the giant curtain?

Yeah. Yep.

Don't worry about that. Just focus on me.

(LAUGHTER)

Alright, well, welcome to another massive week of LEGO Masters.

David and Gus, when we left things off,

you guys won the last build

with a stunning fox in a snow globe.

How are you feeling after that?

Still really good. We feel great.

We weren't sure if we could pull off that build in the time we had.

So, to have done it and to have won is a real confidence booster for us.

Yeah, it's amazing.

Sarah and Fleur, you guys are still holding your glowing Platinum Brick.

We are. Yes, we are.

Happy about that. Mm-hm.

Do you still feel that, you know, safety net to swing for the fences?

Not really. Not really.

We just feel like we need to do more.

Yeah, we look at that fox and we think... (EXHALES)

..whoa, gotta up the game.

Yes, absolutely.

(LAUGHS) That was good.

Alright, so, would you like to know what today's challenge is?

Yep. Yes, please.

Alright, today, there are actually two builds.

The first build will give one team a massive advantage, if you win it,

in the second build, which is an elimination.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS) Wow.

The first build today is called Fantastical Beasts.

Fantastical Beasts is a combination of two animals.

We spin one wheel, we spin the other wheel.

(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)

Each team must combine the DNA

of the two animals that get spun up for them...

That's cool.

..and make a brand-new animal that we have never seen,

and possibly would never want to see...

(LAUGHTER)

..in nature.

Brickman, what are you gonna be looking for?

So, today's challenge is all about

taking the characteristics of each of those particular animals

and merging them together,

making a creature that's hilarious, colourful,

and hopefully isn't too scary.

(LAUGHTER)

Alright, I shall be spinning the wheels,

doing a classic double spin.

Gabby and Ry, why don't we start with you guys?

Step forward.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

What's your perfect combo? What would you like?

I would love to see the flamingo in there.

No worries.

Not too worried about the other side.

A bat flamingo might be... Bat flamingo?

No worries. Here you go. Coming up.

(LAUGHTER)

Shouldn't be a prob.

Not looking good.

We've got a shark flamingo!

(LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE)

I can't even visualise that. Flaming-shark!

Not yet, you can't. Yeah.

Alright, good luck, guys. You have a flamingo shark.

A flark. Oh, you got a flark.

We got a flark. (LAUGHTER)

Jess and Anthony.

Coming up.

Shark, shark, shark. My favourite animal ever.

Well, I'm gonna go a bit more. Pig.

(LAUGHTER) Flaming-pig!

Oooh! (LAUGHTER)

Flaming pig?

Pigmingo!

(LAUGHTER) Pigmingo.

Owen and Scott.

(JAUNTY INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Shh... pea-shark.

Ohh!

A pea-shark - they've got, like, a very distinct call.

It's like a... (MIMICS PEACOCK)

(APPLAUSE)

(MIMICS GURGLING)

Amy and Dawei.

Oh, it could... oh!

Ele... scorpiphant!

(LAUGHTER)

Scorpion elephant.

Let's do Michael and Harrison. Yes!

Spider bat. Spider bat!

David and Gus.

(DRIVING ELECTRONIC BEATS)

(GASPS) Oh, no!

FLEUR: It's another flamingo!

Another flamingo - walrus flamingo.

I don't even know what a walrus looks like.

You don't know what a walrus looks like?

Nope. (LAUGHTER)

Well, Gus, you got some great explaining to do to David

as you go back in line.

Well done! (APPLAUSE)

People are saying on Twitter I'm spinning the wheels a bit weak?

Right, well, I'm not gonna, obviously, react

to what people are saying on Twitter.

Sarah and Fleur. Here we go.

(DRIVING ELECTRONIC BEATS)

Oooh! That's a big spin!

That's a big spin! That was a big spin!

We feel special about this spin. Come on!

Come on. Come on!

Where are you going? Oooh! Ohh!

Oooh, yeah! The shark.

(FLEUR AND SARAH CHEER) Frilled-neck shark!

That's our baby!

Congratulations on your brand-new animal.

(APPLAUSE)

Now, you might have noticed,

because of the giant curtain for our elimination build,

you won't be able to see the clock.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

It's alright, guys. I got you.

(LAUGHTER)

98% of my job is knowing how much time is left.

(LAUGHTER)

For today's Fantastical Beasts build, you have six hours...

(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)

..that I have here on this pretty snazzy portable clock.

(LAUGHTER)

Gabby and Ryan, of course,

you will be suffering the five-minute penalty of the curse.

Six hours - 5:55 - your time starts now.

Good luck, guys.

(UPBEAT MUSIC)

I'm man! I feel like I've got a job today.

Take that. Yep!

(LAUGHTER)

(DRIVING ELECTRONIC BEATS)

So, first of all, what's a walrus? What's a walrus?

A big, funny-looking marine animal.

OK, OK. I know what it is.

And then multiple eyes.

(AMY GASPS) I'm terrified!

Let's get it on! OK.

Why couldn't it just have been just a regular old animal?

Because this is LEGO Masters,

not LEGO Let's Hope They Make Us Do Something Easy.

(LAUGHS) Yeah.

Today we're building a walrus mixed with a flamingo.

We made the fox in eight hours.

That was just one animal,

and here we need to figure out

how we're gonna combine two animals' DNA,

and it's gonna be less time.

I reckon we'll give it big walrus feet.

Yeah.

You know, like, really big feet. Yeah.

We're gonna take the most defining features of these two creatures.

We think the best way to do that is to take the walrus's fat laziness

into the flamingo's tall, elegant skinniness.

Why are you looking at me when you say "fat laziness"?

Gus and David, hello. How you doing?

Talk me through your plan.

What are the key features of the two animals

that you're gonna combine and work together?

We've got the walrus tusks and the flamingo beak.

Hopefully get a bit of curve, like a flamingo neck,

into a big, bulbous, walrussy body,

standing on a skinny flamingo leg.

So, one leg? Essentially.

I need to build a single leg strong enough

so it can hold the weight of the entire creature.

I mean, that's gonna be a challenge.

That's gonna be really hard.

Good luck. Thanks, Brickman.

Thanks, Brickman.

Just wanna make sure that this thing doesn't fall over.

If we pull it off, it's gonna be awesome.

(LIGHT INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Check out these chompers.

SARAH: Yeah, they're amazing.

Kinda glam rock sharky!

Yeah, I think it's glam rock sharky as well.

(LAUGHTER)

You are such a dork.

So, we're very excited.

We got a frilled-neck lizard and a shark.

My brain goes to glam rock.

I'm giving him guitars for tongues, crazy eyes, gnashing teeth.

I'm super excited about this.

What's your initial thoughts?

It's a bad drawing, but do you want to see the drawing?

I drew it, and I'm not the portrait artist.

Arggh! (LAUGHTER)

(ELECTRIC GUITAR WAILS)

The attitude of the hands on the hips.

If he was in a band, he'd be, like, the lead guitarist, totally!

With the mohawk. Love it. I love it.

I'm excited. I reckon that'll be great.

We're excited too! (LAUGHS)

It's exciting, but daunting,

because I've never built animals before ever.

It's not really my thing at all -

I like to tell stories through minifigs -

but I want to challenge myself.

Winning the advantage was a massive, massive leg-up,

going into an elimination build.

Yeah! Rockin', yeah!

(ENERGISING ELECTRONIC MUSIC)

(GROANS)

I will take someone out before the end of this competition.

How fast can you lay bricks, Ry?

I guess we're finding out, eh?

This is gonna be the biggest shark flamingo that anyone has ever seen.

This is the most ridiculous thing that, I think, I've ever built,

I'm just saying.

Today we're building a flark.

It's a combination between a flamingo and a shark,

and we've decided we are just gonna go...

Just go hard. Hard and big.

Just... maybe not massive.

Maybe not quite Kale scale, but definitely big.

Mouth around here. Alright.

Brick, brick, brick, brick, brick!

Got a lot of bricking to go. Yep.

It's so too big for the amount of time we have.

It's ridiculous to think that we're gonna finish it.

We still have the Brick of Doom.

It's only a five-minute delay, but it does have impact on our build.

So, if we can nail this,

this not only gets us the advantage,

it also gets rid of this annoying Brick of Doom curse.

Oh, my god!

Oh, I don't want to present half a shark.

We're not gonna present half a shark.

(ENERGISING ELECTRONIC MUSIC)

Alrighty, big advantage up for grabs.

There's a curtain of secrecy down the other end of the studio.

Behind that curtain is the next challenge.

That's the thing that you want the advantage for.

It's a world today where you've gotta not just make one animal,

not just make the other animal, but somehow combine both animals.

What's tricky about that?

This is the shortest challenge that they've faced so far,

with only six hours to do it.

So, it's about cherry-picking the obvious components of that animal

and then putting them together.

Spider bat. BOTH: Spider bat.

How is she coming along?

Uh, that's her there.

We're building the biggest nightmare fuel spider bat

you could possibly imagine.

It's got some long, spindly, creepy legs and wings.

It's great.

Do you like to build something like that, where you're like,

"Good, we're on the right track,"

and then have it there as inspiration?

Pretty much, yep.

The best thing we do is at the start, and so we're done.

Just to keep you going.

OK, now we've gotta build something to stick that on.

Oh, my god. This is a monstrosity.

JESS: Can we have the snout coming out?

Definitely.

Are you building the neck too? Doing the face first?

Yeah, yeah, face first, then connect to neck.

Jess. Hi!

I love that you've gone for, like, a Bird Bird leg,

but then just a complete pig leg on the other side.

We have a pink flamingo pig.

He's kind of gonna be a little bit sad,

because unlike all the other flamingos,

he only has one leg he can actually stand on.

It's probably just a good example of why pigs and flamingos have never,

to this point, become the one species.

(LAUGHS)

What do you reckon about this for the legs?

Oh, yeah.

It's a blend of elephant and scorpion.

So, I think that's... I think that's OK.

To combine both the elephant and the scorpion,

we're building the trunk for the elephant, the ears of the elephant,

and then, for the scorpion, the stinging tail, the pincers.

And multiple legs. Yeah.

For the trunk, the legs, and the tail,

I've used ball joints, like, articulated ball joints

to create that kind of curved type effect.

Are the legs gonna be able to support it?

I guess...

I hope... (LAUGHS) ..I hope so.

Ready for a quick peek?

Oh, my goodness! How does that make you feel?

Um... horrible.

OK. My apologies. (LAUGHS)

I did not need to see that.

(DRIVING ELECTRONIC BEATS)

One shark with... possible head moving action.

Nope, no head moving action. (LAUGHTER)

We are building a peacock shark.

We have two elements of the peacock.

We have the feathers and we have the stance,

and I want to use Power Functions.

I want to get that classic hammerhead shark,

just, like, scanning the ocean.

Come on, Owen. Come on.

OK, Scotty, here we go.

Waka, waka, waka, waka.

(SIGHS) It's not smooth, is it?

SCOTT: No.

We're well into the build.

The motor's still kind of, like...

..I'm having a couple of small issues with it.

(SIGHS) OK, I gotta somehow make this work now.

I'm starting to worry. Nothing's gone together yet.

There's just a table full of pieces.

Tell me you're done, please.

Not even close.

(EXHALES)

Scotty's got the bulk of the peacock feathers together.

He's just strengthening them

and starting to work out a way of fixing them,

which, in hindsight, we probably should have done first.

Scotty's not the fastest mover in all the land.

We're slowly getting through the gears,

but the stress levels are just climbing.

Man, always late, but worth the wait.

I'm very concerned we're not gonna get this build finished.

Yep. I am in the same boat.

You have got... three hours to go!

(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)

Three hours down, three hours to go.

Halfway there. This has gone very fast.

Brickman, your thoughts?

I am a bit concerned some of you

might have bitten off a bit more than you can chew.

That was directed at us. I'm feeling it.

That one went right at us.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

SARAH: I'm looking around the room, and I'm looking at our build.

And our build is... eugh, hideous!

It's absolutely humiliating. I'm gonna say hideous.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

I had such a clear vision, and then so quickly into it,

it wasn't even slightly what my vision was.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

It doesn't look like a shark or frilled-neck lizard.

I don't know how we're gonna fix this.

(GASPS) Just caught it before it fell on the ground.

Just need to get it more structural.

(GASPS)

(BRICKS CLATTER)

It's alright, Fleur. It's alright.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Whoa!

(EXHALES)

Coming up...

Arggh!

Ow! My nose.

..fantastical beasts...

SCOTT: Whoa! That looks sick, man!

Whoa!

..that you'll have to see to believe.

Oh, yeah!

That's pretty sick, eh? I'm getting a bit emotional.

Then...

On my click. (FINGERS CLICK)

(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)

..themes go above and beyond...

In three, two.

..in the tightest elimination yet.

Owen, hurry up! You've got 11 seconds!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

I just... (EXHALES)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

The build today is where we have to combine two animals

into a new fantastical beast.

We wanted to go all out

with our glam rock frilled-neck lizard sharky boy.

(GASPS) (BRICKS CLATTER)

It's alright, Fleur.

I have spent a lot of time working on the head,

and now it's on the floor in pieces.

(EXHALES)

It's so frustrating when it goes wrong.

I know.

OK, breathe. You can do it.

I'm so passionate about LEGO. Yeah.

I love it so much as a way of connecting to creativity.

So, when you feel like you're not good enough,

it makes you question not just your build, but yourself.

It's everything!

OK, I'm just gonna take you off and...

I love you, and I love your face, OK?

I love you too. So, it's alright. All good.

Fleur and I back each other,

and we're gonna back our build 100%.

We have to believe in ourselves, no matter what the build is.

Glad I'm in it with you.

(LAUGHS) I'm glad I'm in it with you too.

(ENERGISING ELECTRONIC MUSIC)

OK, it is a quick build. Absolutely.

Of all of the builds,

this was the one that they needed to motor on right from the start.

There's a big advantage up for grabs.

Let's talk Scott and Owen - shark peacock.

What are your thoughts?

Loving the feathers,

and they're trying to get a mechanism in.

If they pull it off, it's gonna make for a truly spectacular model.

Anthony and Jess, one of our flamingo teams.

It's a very well reinforced Big Bird leg.

Well, I would question that, even.

Oh, you don't think it's super well reinforced?

At the minute, no.

Look at this - that's not... Yeah, yeah.

..stable enough to hold this whole pig bird.

And David and Gus with their flamingo leg.

That's also gonna push their technical ability,

to get all that balance right.

Big walrus, yes. Nice!

Gabby and Ryan.

I don't want to jinx this,

but we all remember a young man on the show, Kale.

Let's raise the bar and do something nobody else can do.

(SIGHS)

MAN: Could be a reason no-one else is doing it.

Maybe I have gone too big - who knows -

but I'm not gonna regret that for an instant.

Ahh! (EXCLAIMS)

Everyone's finished,

and our car doesn't even really look like a DeLorean.

Could have done it.

We coined the term 'Kale scale', which is just going very big...

Uh-huh. ..but not getting it finished.

Correct.

Is our flamingo shark a risk of that?

Definitely at risk.

I hope they can get it done.

(GRUNTS) Why won't that go on?

Amy and Dawei?

They've potentially got themselves into a bit of a pickle.

The legs might be problematic.

Ball joints? Yeah, they're pretty weak.

The design decision that they've taken

hasn't made a cohesive, solid LEGO model.

They're in for a bit of a rocky road.

OK.

We're a bit worried we've used the wrong joint

for our elephant scorpion build.

(GROANS)

By using ball joints, they're not very strong.

It keeps falling over, and our pieces keep snapping off.

So, we're almost spending more time trying to fix the thing

than we are actually building the other components.

Arggh!

Ow! My nose.

Are you alright? Yeah, all good.

Are you OK? Yep. (LAUGHS)

(TEARFULLY) You're never ready to see a man be trunked in the face,

and you never fully get over it,

but you can't let your emotions get the better of you.

You've gotta get in there, you've gotta act, and you can't panic.

Oh, my gosh! (LAUGHS) Thanks.

Just hold it there. Hold it there. Stop the bleeding.

(LAUGHS) Amy, you keep building.

(LAUGHS) OK. Oh, god.

Oh, it's stopped. The bleeding's stopped.

A few more of those.

You have one too, Ames,

'cause obviously you're emotional, you're gonna cry.

Yeah. Thanks. I'm bloody crying.

But we're gotta fight on, we've gotta fight on,

because that's the sport, that's the challenge.

Thanks. No, thank YOU!

(LAUGHTER)

Guys, you got one hour!

(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM) (ALARM BLARES)

One hour to go.

BRICKMAN: If you are building at Kale scale,

now is the time to finish your LEGO model.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Hit it, Scotty. Hit it. Next gear.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

Ahh, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.

What do you need? What do you need?

Talk to me. What do you want? What do you need?

Talk to me, Goose. Talk to me, Flamingo!

So, the build today,

if we win, we get an advantage in the next elimination round.

We don't know what it is yet, but, boy, do we want it.

The head's built, the main body frame's built.

The legs look awesome.

Now we gotta make sure that a single leg

can hold the weight of the entire creature.

Now is the time for the ultimate test.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Let's pop on the head.

Very good.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

Good? Yeah. Hands off.

Yes!

Oh, that looks so good!

(LAUGHS) That's good. That's it.

This is beautiful, man. This is the stuff dreams are made of, Gus.

Alright, so, I might take the head off

and we'll put it back on in the last ten.

Well done!

I've made a creature perfectionist out of you, Dave.

OK, guys, bit of an announcement!

Um... I seem to have misplaced my iPad briefly.

Let me know if you see my iPad.

It's quite a thin one. Blue case.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

OK, brick, brick, brick.

This is definitely not good for my blood pressure.

Question for the team. GABBY AND RYAN: Yeah?

I'll count to three.

You tell me how many bricks you think still have to get laid

to finish this?

One, two, three. About 1,000.

About 1,000, Gab?

Yep, 'cause we're gonna cheat and use some plates across the back now.

We've hit that point. Love cheating.

Yeah, we're cheating. Do everything you can.

Yep.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Looks kinda shifty now, doesn't it? It's got character.

Yep.

As the head kind of comes together,

the Power Functions are working on the pea-shark.

SCOTT: Excellent.

And I've got the feathers all together laid out.

Oh, how many of these are gonna hit the deck?

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Alright. I don't love this.

Now I've got to get them on the side of the body.

Steady hands.

(TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES)

As I'm putting bricks,

I'm not sure a couple of clips is gonna hold this to the body.

He's a bit tail-heavy.

How can I support that tail?

It's gonna have to have a third leg out the back to keep it balanced.

(TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES)

Come on.

Just go... (LEGO CLICKS)

(EXHALES)

Yes! Yes!

It looks great. Is it meant to be...

SCOTT: Whoa! That looks sick, man! (LAUGHS)

Whoa!

He's been building in the Brick Pit.

I've been in the Brick Pit this whole... oh, it's killer!

I think Scott's here. I'm here. Sorry, man.

What do you think?

Oh, yeah? That's pretty sick, eh? I'm getting a bit emotional.

Yeah, I mean, we don't ever see you rev that hard and...

That is killer, man!

So, the last few minutes

is just making sure we don't bump the pea-shark too much,

that the feathers fall off and things fall apart.

We've still gotta add a bit of zhoosh to the side of the peacock,

and the chest and everything.

I'll cry if you make it fall while I'm not here.

That's all. OK, just a little bit of...

Tears on national television, just a heads up.

That's how we're gonna get there.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Guys, I know things are a bit tense, which is why I've got some good news.

Found it.

(LAUGHTER AND WHOOPING) Got the iPad.

Whoo!

The bad news is 15 minutes to go.

MAN: Wow!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

DAWEI: Oh, well. AMY: The tail has fallen off.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

GABBY: Brick him up.

Where there is a will... there is sometimes a way.

This feels like it could be one of the great comebacks of all time.

It does feel like it.

Or it could be a disaster.

Good luck.

SARAH: Are you OK? FLEUR: Yeah.

We tried so hard to make it look

less a Jabba the Hutt shark thing than it does,

but it's not working.

Oh, man.

Oh, well, finishing is an achievement here.

Alright, guys, five minutes... left for your Fantastical Beasts,

and I feel like there are some beasts in here on life support.

We are all sending thoughts and prayers that they make it.

Get the head on. It can't have no head.

I know. I'm going fast as I can.

BRICKMAN: Pose up your Fantastical Beasts!

Get them in the pose.

Show them in their best possible light.

(LAUGHS) 3:15 to go.

I won't touch it.

It's alright.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Whoa!

(LEGO CRUNCHES)

I'm trying to help to fix the legs on this one.

The legs? Yeah, just swing around this side.

Let it go. Let it dangle.

HARRISON: There - see?

There is 20 seconds!

Little plates. Quick! Red plates! Oh, my god.

Oh, my god! Just don't touch it!

Just, just, just... Just leave it, leave it, leave it!

No, no, no, we're so close. It's done, it's done!

There's exactly ten seconds! Stop touching it!

There's a huge fight between Jess and Anthony!

There's five seconds! Just leave it.

There's four, three, two! (LAUGHS) Just don't touch it.

One! BRICKMAN: Right, hands off!

Oh, my god. Well done, everyone!

Well done! Great job! Well done, everybody!

That was an amazing push to the end!

(EXHALES)

Guys, six pretty fast hours

to create these Fantastical Beasts that we see before us.

A stunning job, going where science didn't dare to go.

(LAUGHTER)

I can't wait to see what Brickman thinks of them.

Scotty and Owen, let's have a look.

(APPLAUSE)

Guys, our beautiful pea-shark in its full splendour.

How do you feel?

(EXHALES) Relieved. Yeah.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)

(PEACOCK CALLS)

We've gone with classic hammerhead shark

scanning the ocean, or the land, for something to eat or peck at.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC CONTINUES)

Comes through to more like an avian body shape.

Big peacock feathers at the back.

(PEACOCK CALLS)

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

What do you reckon, Scotty?

I'm pretty chuffed, eh? Yeah, it's pretty sick.

(LAUGHTER)

I'm pretty happy with it. Yeah, I agree, I agree.

It's a fantastic model. I love the colours.

The colours are excellent.

The putting in of Power Functions and movement is awesome.

The feathers.

Now, you had to have enough faith in what you were doing

that when you put them all up, it would look good.

Yes.

Quite a leap of faith, wasn't it?

Oooh, yeah! Yeah.

It paid off!

Only one small thing is bothering me. That's the stand at the back.

Talk me through what happened with that.

Yeah, so, once the feathers went on,

it was much heavier than anticipated,

and inevitably, it was one of those necessary evils,

when it came to crunch time, that had to be done.

But I gotta say, it's definitely a peacock and a shark.

It's pretty awesome. Good job, guys.

In six hours, awesome job. Thanks, Brickman, Hamish.

(APPLAUSE)

Gabby and Ryan, let's see the flark.

(APPLAUSE)

Gabby, that looks phenomenal.

(LAUGHS) I feel like I've done a marathon.

It was... I'm exhausted.

I mean, we've seen some heroic efforts on this show,

of people laying bricks, and I think that was right up there.

It was.

It's here, and it's got a head.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

RYAN. So, we've got a flark.

(ROARING)

It's a combination between a flamingo and a shark.

(WATER SPLASHES)

It looks very sharky,

but in flamingo colours, with some flamingo features.

(FLAMINGO SQUAWKS)

Now, Brickman, there was a lot of talk about will this get done,

will this make it?

Do you give this a tick for being finished?

Just.

(LAUGHTER)

But the issue is you never got a chance

to show off your technical prowess.

So, that's probably the trade-off with going big.

As a sheer womanpower and manpower effort,

it's unbelievable.

You guys should be really proud. Yeah, well done.

You made it. Very proud.

(APPLAUSE)

SARAH: We're looking around the room,

and our build is, without a doubt, the worst build in the room.

Sarah and Fleur.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

Feeling Brickman's eyes on it, I just felt like...

Embarrassed.

..oh, my goodness. So embarrassing.

He's gonna be like,

"These girls won the Platinum Brick and now they've delivered that."

Yep. That sucks.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

(EXHALES)

Our final product doesn't look like a shark or frilled-neck lizard.

It's just an absolute disaster,

and now we're gonna have to talk about it with Brickman,

and I just want to leave the room.

Sarah and Fleur.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

Ladies, our frilled-neck lizard shark.

(LAUGHS)

Now, I mean, calling a spade a spade,

Fleur, at the end you were not happy.

Not happy at all.

It's been a very, very emotional build.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)

We wanted to do a glam rock frilled-neck lizard sharky boy.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

But it's sometimes really, really hard

to get the vision that you have in your head down in the bricks.

This time, we just haven't gotten there.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

This shows just how hard it is

to get what's in your mind as an idea

to that physical version.

It's an incredibly difficult thing to do.

I, personally, have had many false starts in LEGO models...

..but you know what, I'm so glad to see a smile on your face

to take this as a learning experience...

Yep. Yeah.

..because it really is gonna hold you

in great stead in going forward in those challenges...

Yeah, we'll do better.

..and I can't wait to see what the next one is.

Good stuff, ladies. Well done, guys.

BOTH: Thank you.

(APPLAUSE)

Harrison and Michael.

HARRISON: So, we built this huge nightmare fuel spider bat.

It's got some long, spindly, creepy legs and wings.

These are your first wings, right? Yeah.

First wings, like a baby bird.

You gotta be happy with your first wings.

Wings are incredibly difficult to do.

They've virtually no right angles. There's hardly anything on stud.

I think it's great.

Amy and Dawei.

DAWEI: We had the elephant scorpion.

I love the use of colour,

but unfortunately, you really struggled

with certain components of the build.

The legs today, Dawei -

after it fell over the third time, or whatever the case happens to be,

try a different way, it's as simple as that.

That's cost you a lot.

You haven't quite got the cohesive, solid LEGO model.

Jess and Anthony.

JESS: So, our pigmingo is sad,

because he has one piggy leg

and has to always stand on his flamingo leg.

The sad little face - it's so cute.

(LAUGHTER) The poor little thing.

I can see it hopping down the runway, trying to take off.

No, you gotta love him.

But he just can't get off the ground.

Alright, David and Gus.

(APPLAUSE)

Our walrus flamingo. It's cool.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)

(FLAMINGO SQUAWKS)

GUS: Our walrus flamingo is a walrus body

resting on one flamingo leg, the way a flamingo would,

with a big walrus foot at the bottom.

(FLAMINGO SQUAWKS)

DAVID: And for the head, we have the flamingo beak

and the tusks, like a walrus.

Obviously with a flamingo, it's about the legs -

that's the thing that you think of, probably, the most,

and the walrus is probably about the tusks.

The two things, from a distinguishing feature-wise,

you absolutely got those.

The single thing I'm most impressed with

is there's a lot of engineering in this LEGO model.

It's very difficult to see,

however, if you think about the sheer weight of that

balancing on one foot, it is awesome.

How do flamingos do it? Well, you guys know now.

We do.

Inside, they've got LEGO Technic in them.

Yep.

From a technical perspective,

the way that you have been able to do it,

with LEGO bricks going sideways, is a real show of skill,

because to be honest, I can't think of another technique

that would have stood that up.

So, you did really well to get all of that weight up the top.

Well done, guys. Thank you.

Nice, guys.

(APPLAUSE)

We're stoked. We're really happy with that feedback.

Yeah.

Alrighty, guys, you had six hours to mix the DNA of two animals

that, in some cases, did not want to go together,

but you all did amazingly well.

Whoever is the winning team from this build

does receive an advantage heading into the next elimination build.

Brickman, who were your top two teams?

The first team I'd like to call forward is...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

..Owen and Scott.

(APPLAUSE)

(UPLIFTING MUSIC BUILDS)

A peacock and a shark.

You definitely got the peacock, certainly the feathers,

and you managed to get that head turning well.

Great stuff, guys.

So, the second team that I would like to call forward is...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

..David and Gus.

Well done.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

You guys really did manage to capture

the various components of your two animals.

And you know what, that hovering on one leg was the difference today,

and that's why you've won today's build.

(UPLIFTING MUSIC SWELLS)

(APPLAUSE)

Thanks, Brickman.

Gus and David, you do have an incredible advantage

heading into the next build, which is the elimination.

I'm not gonna tell you your advantage, though,

until you guys know what the build is.

I sense that there is some anticipation in the room

to find out what the build is.

Yes!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

The build for this elimination...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

..does have something to do with what's behind this giant curtain...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

..and it is coming down in five, four, three, two, one.

On my click. (FINGERS CLICK)

(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

SARAH: Look at that!

FLEUR: Oh, my god!

That's amazing! Wow!

We're going to space! We're going to space!

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

This whopping big space shuttle and rocket,

made by Brickman and his team of magical elves...

(LAUGHTER)

..is the next build.

This build is called Mission to Mars.

Oooh! Alright?

Environmental.

WOMAN: Oooh! MAN: What?

(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)

Cool!

As you can see,

there are seven empty compartments on this Mission to Mars.

Each team is responsible for one of the compartments in the shuttle.

You get to pick what humankind is taking to Mars.

Brickman, what are you looking for?

This build is in minifigure scale.

Yay! Minifigure scale!

That is the world that I love the most,

and it is the first time that we've really been able to work in it.

It's all about your storytelling in this very limited space.

Every single stud is valuable,

and it's about what you build on it that's gonna make it count.

To complete today's Mission to Mars build,

you have got... eight hours.

Ohhh!

David and Gus, you guys have got an advantage.

You get an extra 30 minutes to build.

There is a twist to that, though.

You can pick wherever you want to use your 30 minutes.

(LAUGHTER)

All you have to do is say, "Stop the clock."

The clock that everyone's using will stop at whatever time that is,

and you will get to build for 30 minutes,

then the clock will start again.

That's good. Yep.

Yep. Happy with that.

Alrighty, guys, you have got your eight hours.

There she is.

Gabby and Ryan, unfortunately, you guys remain cursed,

because of the old bloody Brick of Doom.

Yep. Oh, pre-emptive. (THUNDER CLAPS, SCREAMING)

(LAUGHTER)

Due to the curse, you will be waiting five minutes, however,

new build, new opportunity to win this build and break the curse.

Alright, let's take this thing to Mars.

Time starts now. Good luck!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

We've got the power! (CACKLES)

OK, we can have a chocolate river.

You mean, like, a big alien?

Are you ready for the one thing we are gonna bring to Mars?

OK. A dog.

What?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

Brickman, eight hours to build your own compartment

within a Mission to Mars shuttle.

Am I right in saying that this build is about brick economy?

Because there's not a lot of space.

I think you should trademark that term - brick economy.

Brick economy? It's absolutely about that.

The canvas is so small for what they have to build.

Literally every stud counts.

Giant plate that fits perfectly!

No, it doesn't, 'cause they're slightly off-stud. Damn it!

I'm personally very excited to see what we get,

because there's one thing we can guarantee,

is that this will not resemble an actual Mars mission

in any way, shape, or form.

Correct. (LAUGHS)

(ENERGISING ELECTRONIC MUSIC)

That's better.

Uh, Gus and Dave? DAVID: Yes?

Here's your button, alright? Thank you.

This is your magical button of advantage.

When a human hand depresses this, you will shut this whole thing down.

The power is yours. Thank you.

We're gonna build the least expected thing on space.

A bouncy castle and an arcade.

In our jumping castle,

we're going to add a mechanism

to make it look like the characters are jumping and having a good time.

We're gonna try to make it a little bit more bouncy,

because they're in space.

It's gonna bounce!

(MIMICS SLOW-MOTION EFFECTS)

We have seen a jumping castle before on LEGO Masters.

It was Kale and Bilsy, season one.

How will yours be different?

It's definitely a risk,

building something that's already been built on LEGO Masters before.

It means that there's something to compare it to.

So, we really need to push ourselves to take it up that extra notch.

(MACHINERY WHIRRS) Too fast?

Yeah, I don't know how much I can gear it down.

I don't have space to gear it down any more, you know?

(UPBEAT ELECTRONIC MUSIC)

Like the curtain? You get where I'm coming from with it?

I get where you are coming from, and I am here for it.

Yes!

♪ We're taking musical theatre

♪ To Mars Into LEGO. ♪

'Cause everyone on Mars,

when you bring a new colony, needs entertainment,

and you can even watch the show on the trip up.

This is the complete opposite to the half and half animal build.

It was an absolute nightmare, and this is serious.

This is the second elimination. (SIGHS)

We don't want to use the Platinum Brick.

We're gonna go full throttle in this build.

The leading man is gonna be an alien,

and he's gonna have a chorus of ballet dancers.

(JAUNTY INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Look how happy they look.

They look so happy, and musical theatre is so happy!

(STIRRING INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

When I left school, I studied musical theatre,

and I am passionate about it.

I just love expressing in that artistic form.

Musical theatre and LEGO - happy combo.

Oh, that's great, Sarah.

We have learnt that no matter what build we get,

we need to inject parts of ourselves into every build

and make it our own.

That's what's gonna make us successful.

♪ I like your musical, Sarah. ♪

♪ I like your legs, David. ♪

(LAUGHTER)

♪ Thank you very much, Sarah. ♪

♪ They're hairy but they're nice, David. ♪

God, where are we going with this today?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Space teams, you have got six hours - just under six hours to go!

Oh, OK!

The shuttle will be loaded in six hours.

We know how fast the time goes.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

Everyone's pushing really hard.

AMY: I feel like, in our last build,

if that was an elimination challenge, we would have gone home.

So, we really need to win this.

Amy and Dawei, hello. Hi!

Hi, Brickman.

Sorry! I didn't mean to distract you.

That's all good. Thanks! So, what is the plan?

We are collecting all the aliens that we've got here on Earth

and sending them back up to Mars.

Unfortunately, the containment's failed.

They're escaping,

and they're trying to get them back in the holding cells.

You've kind of done the build the opposite way

to which I would attack the build.

I would normally do the big character thing first

and then do the set dressing and the other stuff last,

because what happens if it ends up being bigger

than all the set dressing that you've made

or whatever the case happens to be?

This character is the be-all and end-all of your build.

It's either gonna make it or break it.

So, you really need to invest in that.

Yep, yep. Yep.

Good luck! Thank you.

Mmm. Brickman made a good point.

Six hours left and haven't started on the alien -

the main feature of our build.

Um, OK.

We are panicking.

We need to prove that we're better than our last build, falling apart.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

SCOTT: So, the build today is Mission to Mars.

We have elimination on the line.

We've got to build a compartment of this massive spaceship

to take something from Earth to Mars.

I'm back. Scotty, you're back. Welcome back.

Oh, damn! Just beat me. Well done.

Expect the unexpected. What are you doing?

We're going for dystopian, run-down space.

We're taking defence force.

We're gonna take armaments to Mars.

We're building a big mech,

a big sort of robot suit that they can use in outer space

to fight off aliens.

You're the military side of things.

Yeah. Yeah.

Well, I mean, it can't all be jumping castles.

That's it, right? (LAUGHTER)

I'm loving this idea. I'm thinking, like, this kind of set-up.

Yeah, yeah. I just think the colour is too much.

But my concern is that Owen wants everything grey.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

He wants no colour.

I agree with the colour, I just don't agree with the colourses.

Everything the same colour.

It needs to look like the whole world is drab

and no-one wants to live there.

Just like my world now. (LAUGHS)

I will get behind him, teamwork, but I'm not feeling it.

Can we use this colour, Owen?

Um... no.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Guys, you have got four hours.

You're joking! Oooh!

You are halfway through. It's an elimination.

Good luck!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Do you need a hotdog for the bloke up top, Harry?

HARRISON: Hotdog? Hotdog! Hotdog!

I think it works. Fingers crossed.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

So, we wanted to keep it as simple as we can.

So, we're gonna send dogs to Mars.

The perfect man's best friend.

The dogs have broken out of the kennel and are running around,

causing a bit of chaos.

Is this...

So, this is a little mech. Little dog behind it.

It's nice to see that, in modern times, the dogs now have suits.

Yeah, and it's actually a pooper-scooper suit.

That's the aim. That's the dream, isn't it?

I mean, they said it was gonna be a perfect world up on Mars,

and if you don't have to clean up behind your dog,

what else is there to do?

Hey! Here we go. There she is.

The 'Mona Lisa'!

Art's been important to human culture since the very beginning.

Of course you'd take it with you to Mars

when you're setting up a new civilisation.

RYAN: So, the story of our build is there's an art gallery.

We've got the classic pieces - the statue of 'David'.

'Mona Lisa', 'American Gothic'.

'American Gothic', then there's this theft going on.

They steal it all. (LAUGHS)

I bring a piece from the Brick Pit which may be of use to you.

The modesty leaf... (LAUGHTER)

..for your statue of 'David'. (LAUGHTER)

We'll leave the modesty leaf with you.

(LAUGHS) Let's do a test. Let's see.

(JAUNTY INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

(LAUGHTER)

What are you making? What kind of factory?

JESS: Uh, chocolate factory.

Just what you would need on Mars. (LAUGHS) Yeah.

ANTHONY: Everybody loves chocolate.

When you get to Mars, it may not be the first thing you think of,

but if you saw a giant chocolate,

you'd go, "Oh, yeah, I want some of that."

Are you happy with that other flow?

Yeah, yeah, it looks cool. I love it!

So, that bit's all done. I'm gonna put some chocolate bars in here too.

Our story is chocolate factory, but gone wrong.

We have this giant, brightly coloured chocolate bar

currently under construction.

But someone's gotten stuck in a vat,

and it's caused chocolate to spill out everywhere

and it's destroying the entire area.

Maybe it was here like this, it got whacked.

Boo-yeah! God, we make a good team!

We're in a pretty good spot with the build,

just having a lot of fun with it.

Then we realise David and Gus have this advantage

that we've completely forgotten about.

DAVID: Hey, guys. Guess what! What?

Guess what? No.

No!

They get an extra half an hour to build

where we just have to sit there and look pretty.

(CACKLES)

(LAUGHTER)

I thought he was running to the button! (LAUGHS)

I'm feeling evil.

Evil!

We've got curtains up.

We've got a bit of orchestra happening.

You've got your amazing alien lead character.

It's all coming together now.

Hi, Brickman.

Hello, Sarah and Fleur. Hi! How are you?

I'd like to purchase a ticket

to come along and check out your musical theatre.

There you go. Thank you very much.

$10.50, thanks. It looks amazing!

As cheesy as this is, 'cause you're making an orchestra,

but it about the composition.

Make every brick there for a reason. Reason.

You've got really limited space. Yeah.

I mean, this little guy here - absolutely hilarious.

That's your focal point. Yep.

Why would you crowd around it? Exactly.

Why would you take away from that? Make it your focus.

Yep. Yep.

Great stuff, ladies. Awesome! Keep it up!

Thank you. Thank you.

Brickman is right.

(SIGHS)

It's looking a little flat.

I'm gonna pull all this off and raise everything one level.

Yep, and leave the orchestra on that level?

We're gonna stage it up so our alien at the back takes centre stage.

I think it's a good idea about the levels.

Ripping things up is never a good feeling,

particularly now we've got so little time left,

but we think it'll improve our build and it's worth it.

We're gonna raise you up, lady.

(LAUGHS)

Contestants of Earth, you've got two hours!

Arggh! I'm running out of time.

Two hours until the shuttle leaves for Mars.

Have your compartments ready.

Ohh!

Alright, this is our second elimination on LEGO Masters.

It's happened quickly.

You can probably get a feeling now how teams are going.

What are you liking?

Ryan and Gabby with their art world.

OK, Mondrian, here we go.

The little pieces of art they've got, they are really beautiful,

and they look great, and I can instantly recognise what they are.

In three, two...

(JAUNTY INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

David and Gus, I absolutely love this story.

It's so absurd, it's funny...

..but I'm really concerned about Amy and Dawei.

They've gone reverse in this build,

in terms of not focusing on the key character first.

They're actually having to undo work that they've done previously

because the alien doesn't fit.

(BRICKS CLATTER)

OK, this is a problem. I can see Brickman's logic now.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Scotty and Owen?

The problem is, all of their key focal points,

like the mech and all of this action,

it's the same colour as the background.

Mmm.

So, it's really starting to blend in,

and if I look at our shuttle here,

it might just, pardon the expression, but fade to grey.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

OK, Mr Whinge?

Not Mr Whinge, Mr Colour.

This isn't a colour, it's a shade.

It's Mr Colour Specific.

So, we're going sort of dystopian space,

and they're gonna be bringing grungy weapons, and ready for war.

We're gonna beat the aliens.

(TENSE ELECTRONIC MUSIC)

Owen, get that colour out of there.

Which one? That is...

Owen and Scott, hello. Hey, Brickman. How we going?

I'm buckling up, ready for this space adventure.

I do have one question. Fire away.

What's the wow?

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

The mech?

It blends in... Fair.

..exactly the same as the whole rest of the model.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

When it's up in our space shuttle with six other super amazing builds,

what's gonna stand yours apart?

It needs something to pop -

it needs some colour, it needs something.

I mean, that's how you're gonna make this incredible.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Just get rid of, like, 80% of that grey.

No, no. I strongly disagree.

I am very worried.

Brickman's asking for something, I am seeing what Brickman's saying,

but Owen's on another ship going to another country,

not seeing what's going on, man.

We've gone down the dark and dingy road.

We can't fix that now.

I'm not throwing colour at this. It's gonna ruin it.

Trust me on this one.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Change the colour of the mech.

Yes!

But the grungy vibe isn't a colourful mech...

Yes, we should change the colour.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Alright, guys!

Sorry to yell right in your face, Ryan, but you have got one hour!

(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM) (ALARM WHOOPS)

You have one hour to go. The red lights are on.

That shuttle wants to take off... oh, red stars too!

Which I organised,

even though it might have sounded like I was surprised to see that.

It's one hour to go. (LAUGHS)

Alright, I think we gotta do something.

There is someone in the room still with a secret power.

I'm ready to do it. Are you ready to do it?

Are you ready? Yep, let's do it. Yep.

Hey, guys. Guess what.

(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM) Oh, what's this? What's this?

(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)

Alright, Hamish, shut it down!

No worries, Dave. Cool. Thanks.

(LAUGHTER)

Hands off the bricks!

Dave and Gus, you can go flat out for this half an hour.

I mean, they can... can they talk?

No!

Shut it down means shut it down.

I know. That's what I'm saying.

Yeah, they... they can't... it's shut right down.

Everyone else, you have been shut down!

(EXHALES)

Even that level of breathing there, Harrison, is a little bit big.

I wish I had've brought my nail file in.

(LAUGHTER)

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I'm looking at what we're building at the moment.

All I'm thinking about right now

is I want to make this look more epic.

Is there anything we can do to really take advantage of this space?

Really, the only space we haven't filled in our build

is right at the front, and potentially out into space,

hanging off the edge.

Dude, we can have a mechanical bull here and just comes out like that.

Our advantage is, essentially, an extra half an hour build time.

We're gonna capitalise on that extra half an hour

and we're gonna put a mechanical bull on the end of it.

With springs that it's just gonna bounce.

Alright, go for it, yeah. Cool. Cool.

(JAUNTY INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

We're at the point of the build where we just want to get it done.

We're so excited about it,

but now we have to sit there and do absolutely nothing.

Can I growl at them?

(JAUNTY INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

GUS: Place him there?

Ten seconds of shutdown left!

Enjoy this luxurious time, Gus, 'cause it's almost over, baby!

Three, two, one. Brickman, ramp it up!

Go, go, go! Ramp up! That is a ramp up!

Think! A person! What?

I need a person. Another person?

A person with a walkie-talkie there. A person with a walkie-talkie.

Yellow jumper plates?

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

♪ We need some tutus. ♪

(BRICKS CLATTER) It's OK.

He reckons just give him a yellow backpack.

That's gonna solve all our problems.

OWEN: Yes!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

Alright, boys, come back here. All the way back here.

Alright.

What can you see? Grey.

You actually have lost... Everything.

..everything.

You need to come up with something pretty quick

to get some colour into it.

Wacky colours, it is.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

What am I thinking? What do you reckon I'm thinking?

"I told you so. I told you so."

Well, I... "I told you so!"

I can see what I've been seeing all along.

It's just grey slop.

It is.

Good. Like I said, so we need to add some colour.

It just needs to happen now and quickly, Scotty.

I reckon we do orange jumpsuits for these boys.

Yellow, yellow. Stay with yellow. Please stay with yellow.

Yellow? I don't want more colours.

I'm happy for more COLOUR, I don't want more colours.

Orange!

Guys, you have got 30 minutes!

30 minutes to go before lift-off.

I had to do him a little bit off-stud,

because otherwise it looks funny.

FLEUR: Beautiful. Love it.

We've taken all of Brickman's advice

and lifted the stage up.

We also decided to extend the stage.

We think it could be a winning build,

because it's super colourful, super creative,

and really well finished.

Second elimination - we don't want to go home,

and we don't want to use the Platinum Brick.

So, we're hoping that what we've done

stands up to other things in the room.

It's gonna look cool.

Chi-chi-chi... ooh! Ahh! Oh!

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

OK, can you help me hold this down so I don't wreck anything?

AMY: Like this? Yeah.

OK.

We're really glad we took Brickman's advice

and got our alien done.

So, Amy and I worked on that together,

but starting to doubt the technical ability and aesthetics of the alien.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Might need to fit it there.

Yep, I like it.

Guys, you have got ten Earth minutes to go.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Arggh! Dropped it.

How many Martian minutes is that? 400.

400 Martian minutes? Yep.

Red for the captain.

Red for the captain.

No, no, no, ruins it. Get rid of him.

That's why I brought this orange guy back.

OK.

You put your hand up, 'cause you're about to grab the chocolate.

"I just love chocolate.

"Working here at the chocolate factory, this is my dream job."

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

RYAN: Adjusting. (MACHINERY WHIRRS)

We've just made our heist a little bit more prominent,

and moved it to the centre.

Got a little pop of colour.

That's all blues, isn't it?

That's so good, man! I'm so proud of you, Gus.

I'm proud of you, Dave. You're doing well.

(LAUGHS)

It's looking amazing.

The mechanical bull is springing properly.

Whee! (LAUGHS)

I love that!

We're going as hard as we can

to get that level that Brickman's wanting to see.

We've got that confidence of a win last build under our belts.

We just want to keep that up, you know,

keep that sort of winning streak up.

We want to go for the triple whammy.

Guys, you have got... one minute!

This is your final minute before all the modules get put on the shuttle.

It's going to Mars, whether you like it or not!

Oh, wrong way, wrong way, wrong way.

Ahh! Ahh!

Quick hands, quick hands, quick hands.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

One more dude, one more dude, one more dude.

We're down to the last minute.

I feel like I'm trying to add colour.

Like, I put all the yellow bits on the mech

and added orange minifigs.

Brickman is the best.

Brickman? I was...

(LAUGHS)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Owen, hurry up! You've got 11 seconds!

(GARBLES)

Check dimensions.

Five! Four! Quick!

Three, two, one!

That is it, guys! Time's up!

BRICKMAN: Amazing! Hands off!

Good job. Good job.

They look great. Don't they ever?

Congrats, guys.

I never want to do another elimination again.

We might not have to if we go home.

We've got some orange minifigs in there -

finally, some colour, but I'm not happy with it.

Getting ready to pack my bags, essentially.

You were right. The orange is better.

Brickman has told us, and we have not listened.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)

Guys, eight hours.

A truly spectacular build by every team here

to make some very one-of-a-kind space modules.

Let's see what we're taking to Mars. Here we go.

(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)

FLEUR: Oh, my god!

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

It looks unreal. It looks spectacular.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC CONTINUES)

We all know how varied and different the levels are,

but as an overall effect, I reckon it looks awesome.

I reckon it looks awesome. Everyone's done so well. Well done!

(APPLAUSE)

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

Alright, let's see what Brickman thinks.

It's time to do some judging. Gabby and Ry, come on up.

(APPLAUSE)

I think it looks cool.

I think it's the best build we've built so far

in terms of the colour combination,

and it's funny.

But this is an elimination build.

Someone is going home, and we're hoping it's not us.

I'll take a knee, I think, while...

Oh, Brickman's gonna take a knee so we can get a look at this.

I'll just let Brickman pull this out so we can...

Oooh, just cleared it.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)

The story of our build is that there's an art gallery.

We've got the classics.

Statue of 'David'. Statue of 'David'.

'Mona Lisa'.

'American Gothic'. 'American Gothic'.

And then there's this theft going on.

They steal it all.

(ALARM BLARES)

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

One thing that I find fascinating,

'Mona Lisa', because she does have that weird stance -

was that you, Gabby, having to make the 'Mona Lisa'?

The fact that you ripped her arm off and have positioned it that way,

I reckon that totally sells it.

I used the centre of two wand pieces,

which is a bit of a waste part.

And in fact, it's not even a LEGO part.

What do you mean? That's what makes it cooler.

In LEGO sets, when it comes out of the LEGO moulding machine,

there's like, an off-cut piece.

It's packaging? It's... yeah, pretty much.

And so that's what you guys used to hold the 'Mona Lisa's arm on?

I wonder if that's how Da Vinci did it.

(LAUGHTER)

What are your thoughts, Brickman?

You guys have pulled out all the stops from technical ability.

The only thing, I must say, that I would like to have seen,

I would love to have seen one bigger, poppier art piece,

but I think the story is so much fun.

Well done, guys. Great job.

(APPLAUSE)

Alright, Michael and Harrison.

(APPLAUSE)

I'm a big fan of this level of the ship.

It's dogs going to Mars.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)

(DOG BARKS)

MICHAEL: So, we're gonna send dogs to Mars.

HARRISON: Except the dogs have broken out of the kennel

and just running around, causing a bit of chaos.

(DOGS BARK)

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC CONTINUES)

(DOGS BARK)

First off, it's an incredibly funny idea.

Totally love the concept of the dogs on board to Mars.

They are man's best friend, after all - that's what the saying is -

and so I think that's an absolute winner.

A couple of neat part usages for me.

You've got some nice handrails here done with some gear levers,

without the gears in them, using those.

You've definitely ticked the technical box for me on the build,

and particularly love the dog chasing the sausage out the side.

I think that's really fantastic,

however, I really would have loved

to have seen either something that folded out -

those dogs going for a space walk off in space

and this robot just hanging on to those dogs -

that would have sort of allowed you to get bigger and bolder.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

What I do love is you managed to find a way

to get some characters in.

I think the mechs are quite funny.

Great job, guys. Well done. Great job.

Love the dog poos too. (APPLAUSE)

Quite a few dog poos in there.

(APPLAUSE)

Sarah and Fleur, alright!

(APPLAUSE)

Guys, a beautiful piece of amateur space theatre.

Does the production have a name?

Thinking 'Mission To Mars - The Musical'!

Ahh!

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)

The central part is the stage.

The leading man is an alien...

(LAUGHTER)

..and he is surrounded by ballet dancers.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

But there's a whole world of musical theatre around them.

Got a bit of orchestra happening.

(APPLAUSE)

Dressing room, props and costume racks - you need it all!

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC CONTINUES)

Did you guys have a lot of fun making this?

Yeah, we did. Yeah, we loved making it, actually.

You can absolutely feel that,

but one of the things I love about this

is that it's full of awesome little LEGO moments.

Like, the mirror, I think, looks awesome.

I mean, even just the guys out the back, like, getting ready to go on.

I mean, there's a lot of nerves, often, in space flights,

not to forget the stage nerves you might have

if you're doing amateur theatre in space.

(LAUGHTER)

Brickman, what are your thoughts?

I think this is probably your best work yet.

Oh, wow! Thank you.

And I really feel it is because you put your heart and soul into it.

Yep.

I really love the staging, pardon the pun.

It's not about the physical stage, but it's tiered.

You're really drawing our eye in.

The colours are fantastic.

Overall, well done, ladies. Great job, guys.

Thank you. (APPLAUSE)

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

SCOTT: I am very worried about our build.

It just looks like grey slop.

It is.

(TENSE MUSIC CONTINUES)

We didn't listen to Brickman. We didn't take his advice.

It could cost us. Not a great feeling.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Owen and Scott, let's have a look.

(APPLAUSE)

Owen and Scott, it's a very densely built level.

Like, it looks super real. Are you happy with the way it looks?

Yeah, I mean, there was lots of disagreements -

there may still be some disagreements - on colour selection.

I'm really stoked.

It's got the grungy vibe that, I think, we were chasing.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

The story is we're gonna take armaments to Mars.

(MECHANICAL WHIRRING)

The centrepiece is the big robot suit

that they can use in outer space to fight off aliens.

We're gonna claim Mars and conquer Mars.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

Was it one of your tougher builds

in terms of trying to get on the same page with each other?

Yes. Absolutely, yeah.

So, it felt like there was a bit more pressure.

Yeah, that whole elimination thing helps too, eh? (LAUGHS)

Did that get in your head a bit?

Oh, that was on my head for, like, the whole time.

I'll be honest, it shows in your build.

Yeah. Mm-hm.

We feel that.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

What it's done is I feel like you've lost all of the tricks

that you know you've got.

For example, say, composition.

You did all of this work making these gantries,

and then you completely stuffed it full of stuff underneath

and in front of it.

You can't even see it. They don't even look like gantries.

You've basically made a whole wall of colour,

and that's OK, and we can live with that,

if you've got something in front of it which is different,

but you haven't.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

From a technical perspective, absolutely cool.

Story-wise, I'm OK with,

but from an aesthetics perspective,

holy cow, it's put you in the gun today.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

But it's not over yet. It's a super cool build.

You guys should be proud. Well done. Thank you.

(APPLAUSE)

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Alright, Gus and Dave, come on up.

(APPLAUSE)

GUS: I really think we nailed it.

We pushed ourselves to build a really fun arcade scenario...

DAVID: And we hope that this build is gonna keep us in the competition.

Do you mind if I just bring out our bucking bronco?

Do it! Go for it.

Oh! Oh, it's outside...

(CONTESTANTS EXCLAIM)

Oh, guys!

FLEUR: That's cool.

(LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE)

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)

(LAUGHTER)

GUS: We've got a jumping castle,

some video games.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC CONTINUES)

And then the big ticket item, the mechanical bull on the end of it.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

This coming out of the bucking bronco,

not only is it a great use of extra space -

space that you don't have -

this build is all about being constrained.

So, you've really thought outside that and I really like it.

What else do you like about it, Brickman?

So, I think it was about an hour in that you realised that

we've, in fact, had a jumping castle on LEGO Masters before

in the very same episode in series one.

How do you think you've gone compared to that?

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

I... I think we've gone a little bit better. I hope we have.

Yeah. We really tried to.

Oh, Mr Arrogant! (LAUGHTER)

No, I think you're right too. (LAUGHTER)

Well, let's ask the one man whose opinion actually carries the weight.

Which do you think is better?

I think this one's better.

Yes! I really do.

Won the castle-off, which is not a thing.

(APPLAUSE)

This is such a constrained build.

It's all about how well you use LEGO pieces

to show off those fine little details,

and I think you've done a great job with it.

BOTH: Thank you. Well done.

Great job. (APPLAUSE)

Hearing those words from Brickman was a reassurance

that we do belong here,

and we need to keep doing this.

Alright, Anthony and Jess, let's have a look.

(APPLAUSE)

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)

ANTHONY: Our story is a chocolate factory, but gone wrong.

JESS: We have this giant brightly-coloured chocolate bar

currently under construction.

But someone's gotten stuck in a vat,

and it's caused chocolate to spill out everywhere,

and it's destroying the entire area.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

I absolutely love the idea.

I think it's hilarious, it's funny -

it's exactly the sort of thing that we needed -

but I do want to ask you one question.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Are you worried about anything on this build?

I don't like the minifig in front of the Mars Bar.

Ahh! Absolutely on the nose.

It covers up the writing. The writing is awesome!

In such a small build,

you really need to think about every single LEGO brick.

Is it adding value?

I feel like, if you look at the minifigure's face, she knows.

She knows what she's done. (LAUGHTER)

Overall, well done, guys. Good job.

(APPLAUSE)

I am really nervous that the thing that sends us home

is an amazing build with one little mistake.

Amy and Dawei.

(APPLAUSE)

We're quite happy that we've managed to achieve this.

And we didn't leave it to the last minute. So, go us!

(LAUGHS)

But we're concerned about the technical ability

and aesthetics of the alien.

Mmm.

Amy and Dawei, can you take us through

exactly what's going on on your level?

This is the return to Mars mission.

(EERIE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Our story is they've captured all the aliens down on Earth...

..and they're sending them back up.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

Unfortunately, containment has failed.

They're escaping,

and they're trying to get them back in the holding cells.

(LASER FIRE)

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

What's something that you're not happy with

that you'd love a do-over?

Our prioritisation of the set decoration

instead of the actual main alien itself

was probably not the greatest idea.

Look, it's an interesting thing,

because when you're halfway through a build,

you get into the rhythm of things.

You're like, "Yeah, this is what I need to do,"

and you have some short-term goals.

I think you definitely had that

when you were doing the stuff around the outside,

but it's almost like you then had to do a hard stop

and then almost start again when you went to the big alien.

The thing that I love the most about your build

is the colour of the alien that you chose.

It is such a great colour to choose,

however, tempering that,

I'm a little disappointed in terms of its physical shape.

It's very square.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

If we look at all of the builds around the outside,

there's nothing really showing off your technical skill, per se.

A great example of that is the three minifigs

that are standing up on the top rail.

They're simply just standing there.

Even some of the face choices.

You've got someone there with a space blaster going, "Meh."

It's little things like that that

just elevate your story a little bit further,

and having all this detail around the outside,

and not focused on the key figure in the middle,

may find you in a little bit of trouble in today's elimination.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC BUILDS)

Guys, a really awesome build,

I mean, that proves, again, the people we have on this show

have incredible imaginations, and we are seeing that in the LEGO.

It is an elimination,

which means, Sarah and Fleur, I've gotta ask you guys first -

you have the all-powerful Platinum Brick.

You've seen everyone's builds.

Do you wanna play it to keep yourselves safe?

That is a no. Not today.

Not today. Alright.

It won't be played, which means everybody is, potentially,

on the shelf for elimination.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

But before we eliminate, we find out who our top two teams are.

What are your thoughts, Brickman?

So, the first team I would like to call forward is...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

..Sarah and Fleur.

(APPLAUSE)

Wow! (LAUGHS)

You know, it's interesting -

when you build with passion in your heart,

it comes through in LEGO bricks, and we saw that today.

The subject matter was so in your jam.

Yeah.

The next team that I would like to call forward is...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

..David and Gus!

(APPLAUSE)

(UPLIFTING INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Those crazy colours,

the way you framed the build by having two towers -

that's aesthetics.

So, it comes down to technical ability.

And today we have the absolute privilege

of seeing an amazing jumping castle,

and on top of that, the bucking bronco on the end of it!

(LAUGHTER) That's way cool.

Well done, guys. Well done.

WOMAN: Well done! (APPLAUSE)

By the absolute barest of margins, I must say.

Alright, Gus and David, that is three wins in a row for you guys.

That's officially a streak.

I don't think we've had a three-win streak before on LEGO Masters.

How do you guys feel?

Brilliant, but it's... the pressure is on now.

Of course, of course. We have to keep bringing it.

Congratulations to you guys as well. Well done to both of you, guys.

(APPLAUSE)

Well, as the season progresses, we do lose teams.

It's time to lose our second team from LEGO Masters this season.

Brickman, who were the bottom two teams today?

The first team that I would like to call forward is...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC BUILDS)

..Amy and Dawei.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

The second team that I would like to call forward is...

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

..Owen and Scott.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC CONTINUES)

Let's talk about storytelling.

I think it's fair to say, Amy and Dawei,

you definitely had a clear story.

So, that's a tick from me.

Likewise, Scott and Owen. Another tick.

Aesthetics - Amy and Dawei, you made a giant green alien.

It clearly popped. That's a big tick in the aesthetics.

I think, Scott and Owen, I think you know where I'm going here.

Aesthetics - it's just one big grey mess.

There's just no colour to it.

And then finally, technical ability.

(TENSE INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Scott and Owen, today your technical ability

really was a level above,

and that's why it saved you.

Unfortunately, Amy and Dawei, you'll be leaving us today.

(STIRRING INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

Guys, you have made an awesome build.

You have made a lot of awesome builds on this show.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

Dawei, you got the dragon! MAN: Yeah, Dawei!

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

Let it snow.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC SWELLS)

Wow! It looks amazing.

It's storytelling perfected.

(MOMENTOUS MUSIC CONTINUES)

Thank you.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

The whole thing's felt like a dream.

It's amazing that we're here - we're actually here.

Like, it's still, like, whoa! (LAUGHS)

That's a great point, because you know what,

you two are two of 16 of the best LEGO builders in Australia,

and that's a reason to celebrate on its own.

Totally.

Guys, thank you so much for being part of the show.

Thanks for everything you've built. We will miss you. Clap them out!

(APPLAUSE)

I'm sad that we're leaving, but we've learnt teamwork,

we've learnt prioritising, time management.

(LAUGHTER) Yeah.

(UPLIFTING INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC)

We've had our moments on the show, but we're still friends!

So, that's good! (LAUGHS)

The shuttle looks incredible,

and tomorrow, who knows what's in store?

Well, I mean, we do, but that is it. (LAUGHTER)

That is it for tonight. Well done, guys. Great job.

(APPLAUSE)

OWEN: I feel like we've been given a second life.

Second chances don't come around. Yeah.

So, we got one. So, now's the time to use it.

Absolutely, yeah, yeah.

(UPLIFTING MUSIC SWELLS)

Go! (LAUGHS)

Next time, a hero's quest into uncharted land...

Each team will be responsible

for building the epic scene of the treasure map.

How the hell did the Romans curve this?

It wasn't built in a day.

We actually need Rome to be built in half a day.

Ahh! (LAUGHTER)

..where only the biggest risk takers...

(MIMICS GROWLING)

I don't think I've ever made anything this complex out of LEGO.

..will be rewarded with immunity from the next elimination.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah!

OWEN: If we attempt it and it does work,

it could push us into the top of the pack.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC SWELLS)

Unless, of course, their quest fails.

No. No.

Arggh! (LAUGHS)

Uh-uh.
