24x13 - The Battles Part 6 and Knockouts Premiere

[bunniefuu]

This is the last day
of the battles.

We're wrapping it up, and
we've been having so much fun.

I'm the only coach
with a steal left.

Who's got the better team?

♪ Team Gwen ♪ ♪ Team Niall ♪

Next, we go to the
knockout rounds. I can't wait.

There's nothing here.
Only the winner right here.

Tonight...
Look good together!

The artists take the stage

for their final
battle performances.

♪ Hold my hand ♪

♪ Anything you want ♪

♪ I'm gonna love you
the best that I can ♪

And as the battles
come to an end,

we're just getting started,

because the three-way knockouts
start tonight.

Give it up for your coaches!

The stakes are pretty high.

Three artists,
only one can win the knockout.

No matter
which way you slice it,

the three-way knockout
is brutal.

- The queen is here.
- It's competitive.

We get to steal.
We can save one.

With everything on the line,

our coaches enlist help
from an iconic legend.
Yes!

My God.
I'm freaking out.

We've got our queen,
Ms. Reba,

and we've got
another country queen.

Queen in the house!

I just felt really excited.

I just know that she has
so much experience

from such a young age.

She's someone that can really be
just such a great mentor.

Country superstar Wynonna Judd.

We've got Wynonna!

At "The Voice,"
I want to instill in others

what people like Loretta Lynn,

Tammy Wynette,
Johnny Cash instilled in me,

and I want to do that
for somebody.

It's too much of a good thing,
and I like it.

She got quotes.

Pretend you're not
on "The Voice",

and you're singing it for me.
Yeah.

And we're hanging out
and we're in the car.

Wynonna and I first started
working together early '80s.

They told me The Judds
are gonna open the show.

They did so well that everybody
fell in love with them.

Wynonna is the most soulful
singing country artist

in our business.

The legend herself.

Wynonna is on tour right now,

playing her first two
solo albums.

She's been in this business
for decades.

Squeeze your butt.
I do that when I hit high notes.

We're getting gems over here.

But first, the
battles continue right now.

Next Team Niall
battle pairing...

Brailey Lenderman

battling Huntley.

♪ Yeah, take us to the top ♪

I was dreading if I was
gonna get paired with Huntley.

Huntley is one of
the most powerful singers

I've ever heard.

Niall!

He was like, "They
both have long hair."

We're the hairiest people here.

She gave me the littlest...

Like, look at all that hair
in that brush, Huntley.

Look at it.

Aww. Okay, we're going.

I'm nervous. I got, like,
the first-day-of-school jitters.

Yo, what's up, man?

I paired Brailey
and Huntley together

because they're my
two soulful pop rockers.

They both have huge
voices, and I just felt like

it was made for a big
moment on the battle stage.

So, what have you been up to?

My daughter turned seven, so...

Dude, she's been
talking about you.

She was so cute.

♪ ...tell you she's an orphan ♪

What I love about Huntley
is his little daughter Stella,

because she chose me.

Niall. ♪ She talks to angels ♪

Yes!

I'm so happy to have
Huntley on my team.

He has so much unique
character and tone

that is basically unlike
anyone else in the competition.

Heard my mom
actually bought tickets

to your June show in D.C.

No way. Yeah, she's a super fan.

I'll get you a refund.

Hey. Thanks.
I appreciate it.

You guys are both 33?

Yeah. We are.

We've been chasing this
dream for a while. We're excited.

Both of you had
really special auditions.

♪ If it makes you happy ♪

I've been living in
Nashville. I work two jobs.

I work in retail,

and then I also work for
this, like, luggage service

where I pick up people's
luggage from the airport.

To pick a Sheryl
Crow song, it's huge.

Like, that's a...
That's a big moment.

I've been
playing shows every week,

doing what I can to be heard,

'cause everybody says
it takes one moment.

I mean, this could
be it. I'll take it if it is.

♪ With a little love ♪

Niall gave us "Hold My Hand"

by Hootie & the Blowfish.

When my daughter was born,

she had an emergency
and her umbilical cord

was actually wrapped
around her neck

and they started trying
to get her to breathe.

♪ With a little peace ♪

So I mean...

it was, like, terrifying.

♪ We'll take the
world together ♪

And I actually gave her my
finger and I held her hand,

and then she came to.

So every time I hear this song,

I think, she can come
and find her dad's hand

and that everything
is gonna be okay.

♪ Hold my hand ♪

♪ I want you to hold my hand ♪

Last year, I went through
one of the worst depressions

I've ever had in my life.
♪ I'll take you to a place ♪

Then my husband,
he was very good

about, um, always
finding my hand.

Kind of like in the
song, how it says, like,

"I'm gonna love
you the best I can."

I was never by myself and...

he was just that person.

You see that? That
was awesome, guys.

That's how you
do it. It's so good.

And you can give it even more.

Get on your side! Okay, sorry.

The way you sung
the very last line,

I would sing the
verse like that. Okay.

'Cause it had dynamic to it.

But don't be afraid to reach out

and give a bit of grit on
some of the ends of notes,

'cause it's very easy
to get all in your head

about this note and that note.

That's what I'm
having trouble with.

I just get nervous easily. You've
got no reason to be nervous.

You're hitting all the notes.

Just hit them with more
determination. Dope.

I love Brailey's tone.

I love the attitude that
she's got in her voice,

but I don't think she
fully trusts her voice yet,

and I don't think she's got
any reason to think that way.

Have confidence
and go and show it off.

She's like...

Why'd you have to give her
confidence right before battles?

Geez.

I think this battle comes down

to whoever holds
their nerve on the day.

The votes have been
counted and verified,

and I can now reveal that
the winner is from Team Niall...

again.

This song and these two
singers have the ability

to rip the roof off this place.

I'm excited for this.

The battle starts now.

Come on!

Yeah.

Wow,
wow. My gosh.

I just was not expecting
that. That was amazing.

That was the best
they've done it.

Brailey, the thing with you

is I felt like it
wasn't until like,

halfway through, it was like,

"Wow, she has an
incredible tone and power."

It was really,
really, really good.

And, um, Huntley,
like, I'm worried

that you might win this show.

Wow. Like, really.

My God. Thank you.

Your precision and
perfection of how you did it,

it's hard to believe.

In this moment, I would say
that Huntley won that one.

That was so fun for us to watch.

You even matched
your braids up there.

I know, it's so cute.

Brailey, you were powerful.

You made musical choices

that were really
appropriate to the song,

but still made it feel fresh.

The challenge is you
were against Huntley,

and the magnetism and
the energy that you convey,

it's just very attractive and it
connects people to you. Thank you.

There's something special
about that crackle in your voice,

so, dude, you're great.

Thank you so
much, man. I appreciate that.

Well, Brailey and Huntley, I
think y'all did a wonderful job.

Being a solo artist, I
miss the duets so much.

It kind of made
me a little envious

that I didn't get to be up
there and singing with y'all.

You should have came up
here with us. We could be a trio.

Next time, alright?

But, Brailey, I think
your tone is great.

Your voice is gorgeous.

I did hear a few pitchy
things every once in a while,

but I'd probably be on the
floor if I was in your position.

And, Huntley, I do like your
stage presence, your look.

You're a force of
nature on stage.

Thank you, Coaches.

Alright, Niall, this is gonna
be a tough one for you, I know,

but give us some
thoughts first on the battle.

Wow. That is by far the
best you've done it, guys.

Unbelievable singing
from both of you.

Huntley, your stage presence
is just insane to watch.

You prowl around that stage
whilst also singing that well.

Thank you so much,
brother. I appreciate that.

And I know Brailey kind of gets
nervous for most performances.

Didn't look like
it today, Brailey.

You were absolutely
on fire up there.

I appreciate it. Thank you.

As always, these are

ridiculously tough
decisions that, sadly,

I'm the stupid one
that has to make them.

Niall, who's the
winner of this battle?

The winner of this
battle is Huntley.

Huntley, congratulations!

You're moving on to the
knockouts for Team Niall!

I genuinely think that Huntley

could win this
competition outright.

The way he sings and the
power that he gives on stage,

he had the room on
the edge of their seat.

I just can't wait to see what
he does in the knockouts now.

A little shocked right
now. Sorry. Um...

I'm so excited to
call my daughter.

I'm gonna tell
her, unfortunately,

Dad's gonna have to be
gone for a little bit longer.

I'm going to the
three-way knockout!

Let's go, Team Niall!

Brailey, is there anything
you want to say to Niall?

I've been doing
this for nine years

and I've never gotten a "yes,"

and you gave me my first
one, so I really appreciate it.

Give it up for
Brailey Lenderman,

ladies and gentlemen!

You should be so
proud of yourself.

Brailey made the
decision so tough,

but I just had to
go for Huntley.

That Huntley, he's
something else. He's a beast.

That opening of the song
was like he wrote that song.

He sounds like a star.

♪ This is "The Voice" ♪

Welcome back to the battles.

I'm super excited because I
just got paired with my partner

for the battle rounds.

Her name is Caitlin.

We've been hanging out
anyway this whole time.

Thumb w*r starts the song.

Let's go.

I start the song.

Looky who's here!

My goodness. This is so
crazy. My gosh! Hi, Reba.

How you doing?

I paired Crystal
and Caitlin together

because Crystal is more
R&B and Caitlin's more country.

Opposites attract,
differences are better.

If it had been the same,
it'd have been redundant.

So what y'all been doing
since I saw you last?

Well, I have been
practicing a lot.

I didn't realize how nervous
I would be up on that stage,

and so I've been doing,
like, breath training.

Yeah, singing is the only place

we have to think
about breathing.

That is so true.

I can't imagine being up
like y'all did in front of people

that are in the business.

When you turned around,
I was like, bleh, bleh.

♪ There's always
been a rainbow ♪

My blind audition,

I definitely blacked
out for half of it.

It was just such a whirlwind.

I've had wonderful coaches,

and I think I can help you
out with some of the things

that people have been
so sweet to teach me.

And we're both redheads.

I'm choosing my
fellow redhead, Reba.

I am literally a one-woman
show. It's exhausting at times.

I started songwriting
when I got to Nashville,

and I make my own merchandise.

Whenever I release a song,

I make a painting
that kind of represents

a visual representation
of the song I've written.

Cheers.

I've been doing
everything on my own.

I absolutely love Reba.

She is one of my biggest
idols and always has been,

and she's the queen
of country music.

What better person
to learn from than her?

a God in Heaven ♪

I gave them

"The Song Remembers
When" by Trisha Yearwood.

It's such a storytelling song
with not that big of places,

but they took it to big places.

♪ When ♪

♪ Yeah, and even if the... ♪

Caitlin's got a very pure voice.

I like her delivery.
I like her tone.

♪ ...remembers when ♪

And Crystal's range is great.

Her power is wonderful.

They complemented each other.

You sound amazing!

Absolutely amazing.

When you're coming in
and out in the harmony,

everything is great.

Now let's add to it. Yes.

When you're listening to
this song, listen to the words,

take the lyrics and
really dissect them.

Where are you nostalgic?
Where are you sad?

Where are you happy?
When it's happy, sparkle.

When it's sad, it's
not any sparkle at all.

It overtakes you. Yeah.

This song is tagged
to a lot of memory now.

"The Song Remembers
When" is all about,

the song carries memory,

and that's the beautiful
thing about music.

It carries with it memory.

And for me, it
means so much more,

because my mom
passed away to cancer,

so when I hear
certain types of music,

it's like she's kind of with me.

It was probably the most
devastating thing in my life.

She was a fan of "The Voice."
She absolutely loved Reba.

It's good to know that she
would approve of me being here

and of Reba choosing me.

It's a bittersweet blessing.

♪ Want you to make me feel
like I'm the only girl in the world ♪

Performing "Only Girl"

for my blind was a very
vulnerable experience,

because it's a
song that I wrote.

I'm a singer-songwriter
in the music industry.

I've been that for
20-plus years now,

and I've never
actually sang it myself

outside of just recording
the demo for Rihanna.

And Rihanna does such
an amazing job with it,

so I was absolutely terrified.

And thankfully, Reba
heard something

that nobody else heard that day.

I heard a very
powerful, strong voice.

I applaud you, and
I am thrilled to death

that I get to be your coach.

She gave me a motherly thing.

I haven't had that
in a few years, so...

it means a lot.

Yeah.

♪ We were headed
straight for Eden ♪

♪ It was just around the bend ♪

Crystal is a friend of mine.

I definitely have my
work cut out for me.

She's an amazing
songwriter and singer.

She wrote "Only Girl"

for Rihanna.

I'm a little nervous.

They're just both great singers.

That one's gonna
be really tough,

choosing one person to progress.

My gosh. That was
absolutely breathtaking.

Thank you. My gosh.

Crystal knocked it
out of the ballpark,

and I'm very proud of Caitlin.

They went toe-to-toe.

Can't wait. Looking
forward to it.

Have a good rest
of the day. Y'all too.

You know, I'm just banking
on my gut feeling to say

I'll make the right choice.

Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow.

That's all the
comment it needed.

Your voice, Crystal,
is just so round,

and you have one of those
voices that just like, fill up the room

and make people feel
warm and... And fuzzy inside.

And, Caitlin, "familiarity" is
the word that comes to mind.

I'm really sad that
I didn't get to turn.

You had a chance to turn.
Like, you could have turned.

True. Um...

It's okay.

I think leaning
towards Caitlin for me,

because just the
storytelling of it

and you gave across
a flawless vocal.

Not that Crystal didn't,
to be honest, by the way.

This is like a 50/50 battle.

Thank you.

Caitlin, you're very memorable
in your style that you sing,

and it's just kind of a
rare-sounding voice.

And, Crystal, you just have
this strength in your voice.

It's hard for you
to not turn up,

because you're just
naturally so strong.

I thought you both handled
the emotion of the song well.

Both amazing.

Okay.

Crystal, your voice

really takes up space
in a really nice way.

It has, like,
presence and clarity.

You just seem so,
like, in command

of who you were as a vocalist.

And, Caitlin,

your tone felt like it was a
bit more at home in the song.

I think in this
particular moment,

it felt like Caitlin
won this battle

just for that reason.

Thank you, Coaches.

Alright, Queen Reba,

what'd you think
about that battle?

I loved it.

Thank y'all very much
for working so hard

and making that song so good.

I know Trisha would
be thrilled to death.

Crystal, you knocked
it out of the ballpark.

It was absolutely wonderful.

And, Caitlin, you gave it all.

You gave the vocal, the emotion.
I'm so proud of both of you.

You stood out and you
complemented each other.

It was good. I don't
know what to do now.

Gosh.

You ready? No.

Okay.

Any help?

Reba, the time has
come. Carson.

Who is the winner
of this battle?

The winner of
this battle is Caitlin.

Caitlin, congratulations!

You're moving on to the
knockouts for Team Reba!

Caitlin and Crystal
were really hard for me.

Crystal is so good,

but Caitlin, the way
she expresses herself,

she's not only country, she's
kind of a country-pop artist,

so I think it'll be a lot of fun
to get to pick songs for her.

I don't like this.

Crystal, anything you
want to say to your coach?

Coach Reba, don't feel bad.
That was a great choice. I do!

I've gained so much
from this experience,

so thank you so much.

Give it up for Crystal
Nicole, ladies and gentlemen.

Man.

The competition in the
battles is so good this season.

I don't like that.

See, why couldn't she
be a horrible person

and take that really badly?

I know it. Do you
know what I mean?

Everybody has
stepped up to the plate,

but the decisions
have been so hard.

I didn't think it'd hit
me that hard, but it did.

♪ This is "The Voice" ♪

Welcome back.

Okay, I'm the only
coach with a steal left.

I love steals 'cause
they're all about redemption.

People who I didn't
get the first time,

it's time for them to
finally come home.

Let's see who gets my steal.

Okay, next battle
pairing... Brandon Montel,

you will be battling

Kara Tenae.

He's my bro. I love you.

And you will be singing
"Have You Ever" by Brandy.

I'm screaming! I'm
excited about that!

When I found out
that we were paired,

I hated it just a little bit, but
I was very excited... I know.

That it was you, because both
of us have similar tones. Right.

I paired Brandon
and Kara because I feel like

they, genre-wise,
are in the same lane.

Like, a little bit
R&B, a little soul.

Listen, when I heard your blind,

my goodness.

♪ I'm caught between
your love and a hard place ♪

It says "blocked"! Hooray!

If there's a steal opportunity,
I will be first in line.

The blinds were surreal.
It was a beautiful moment.

I've done a lot of
background singing.

I'm also in the underground
ballroom culture.

You are adorably cute and
your performance was gorgeous.

Gwen.

Gwen is a fashion icon,

and just to be
coached by the legend,

it's amazing.

Kara and Brandon! Kara: Hi!

Hi, guys. Brandon: Hello!

Rehearsals... my favorite.

Walking in rehearsal
today, I was just in awe,

because I'm literally in
here with Gwen Stefani,

who I've watched
since I was a kid.

Where did you grow up?
In Riverside, California.

We used to play
out there all the time.

Yeah, 'cause you're
a Cali girl like me.

Yes, yeah. So, yes.

We used to play
at Spanky's Cafe.

I've performed there
before. You have?

Yeah. My gosh.

My God. That's so dope.

I picked this song I
thought would be good

for both of your guys' voices.

We are so grateful.
We were so thankful.

Yes? Okay, good. And we love it.

Gwen gave us "Have
You Ever" by Brandy,

and her choosing that shows
how much of a genius she is.

This is my roots right here.

My sister Mikala and I,

we literally would
stand in front of the TV

and just be
mesmerized by the song.

She's always been very
supportive of my career,

so when I was going
through the process of blinds,

it was just really exciting
that I could share that with her.

The fact that I'm here,

I'm still trying to wrap
my head around it.

You have so much style.

You got swag.
You got personality.

You got stage presence. You

I'm just super grateful, and
I'm ready to give it my all.

Brandy was huge when
I was coming up in No Doubt,

so it was fun to
relive that time period.

It's gonna be a good battle.

They are actually quite equal

when it comes to,
like, their abilities.

Pretty! Thank you.

This is where I always
get kind of nitpicky,

just because the genre is, like,
all about runs and acrobatics,

but that has to
come from the lyric.

Yes. Individuality comes through

when it's coming
truly from the heart.

I've never performed
"Have You Ever" before.

♪ Have you ever loved somebody ♪

Whoo!

Just saying, "Have you
ever loved somebody

so much it makes you cry?"

Really hits on a
different level for me.

I lost my grandfather
a year ago.

He was one of
my closest friends,

and for me, it
just didn't feel real.

My grandfather was
a gospel producer,

and it's because of him,

the reason why I
am singing today.

Getting to the knockouts

would just be another
step closer to the dreams

that my grandfather had
always envisioned for me.

The singing was
ridiculous. Thank you.

But I think you can bring
more of that character out.

Okay. Yes. You're gonna be
on TV, and they're gonna cut

from some person
in the audience to her,

to you, this and that. Yes.

You want to make them cry.

Yes. Right?

They're gonna cut in
and you just got to be,

saying? Gotcha. Yeah.

A little more animated,
a little extreme.

And then for you,
on a first chorus,

try to blend a little
bit better with him

when you're doing the
more background part.

I'm losing you a little bit, and
it's not just volume. Gotcha.

You're too sharp
and too intense,

and you're too soft and round,

and it's not gelling
together in the choruses.

Working with Gwen,
I'm learning so much.

I think next time,
I'd love to see you

even give me a little bit more,
just a little bit more body. Okay.

It's really about, how
do you stand out so that

when you walk off
the stage, they're like,

"My gosh,"
they can't forget you.

These gems that she's giving
me, you don't get these every day,

so it's very important
that I make it to knockouts,

'cause I don't want it to end.

Kara is really talented.

She can hit every dynamic

that you need to hit in a song.

♪ Break down ♪

I think that Brandon really
needs to let us see what he has.

He's just so talented,
and he's gorgeous,

and if he can
bring his full game,

then I'm gonna
have a real problem.

Whoo!

You got to be proud of that.

It felt more balanced.

It gets me emotional, like,

just because what's crazy
about the show is like,

two people that don't know
each other come together

on this song, and
it blends so well.

I'm gonna be the one that's
having the horrible honor

of having to, like, decide.

I really don't know
what I'm gonna do.

You guys are so cute. Thank you!

You should be in
a band together.

Wow.

I love you so much.

Wow.

I'm so messed up
right now. My gosh.

That was so good!

I like that you
dressed this way.

You look like you were supposed
to be on an award show together.

Brandon, you would hit
some of those high notes,

and I was looking at
Kara some of the time

and expecting that it
was coming out of her.

And then I was like,"
no, that's Brandon singing."

Your higher register
is so beautiful,

and I love how airy it is in
that middle part of your voice.

And then, Kara, you were
just powerful and brilliant.

It was really just a strong
performance. Thank you. Thank you.

I feel like Brandon's voice
is more, like, rare in a way.

I'd have a hard time deciding.

I'm not gonna tell
you who to pick.

Nasty.

You guys sounded great. I was
really entertained. Thank you.

I loved to entertain, but
I love to be entertained.

Thank you. Thank you.

If I had to pick
somebody to help you out,

I think I'd go with Kara,
because I was just so fascinated

with the way you
handled yourself.

Thank you.

What am I gonna
do? This one's...

Just take big, deep
breaths, Gwen.

You guys messed my
head up. That was so good.

The technical stuff that was
going on there was just crazy.

Insane. When the back and forth
was going on in the middle part

of the song, I was like this.

It was like a... It was
the definition of a battle.

It's like you're
watching a tennis match.

When it comes to
technical singers,

this is definitely
the best battle,

without a shadow of
a doubt. Thank you.

I'm feeling so
bad for Gwen right now.

If I'm thinking about what John
was saying about uniqueness

and standing out that way,

I would just lean
toward Brandon.

Thank you, Coaches.

I mean, I don't know.

Alright, Gwen,
you've got the final decision.

Give us some thoughts
on the battle first.

You're both so talented.

Brandon, I think your strengths

are just your actual voice.

It's so pretty,
but yet so skilled.

Like, body language-wise,
like, in this battle,

I think that I saw some of that,

but I also feel like there
was moments where it wasn't

as strong as I
saw in rehearsals.

With Kara, the way that
you used your dynamics,

you didn't even
do that in rehearsal.

There was not one
out-of-tune note.

You were really
tasteful with your runs.

You were captivating.

So I was really, like,
teeter-tottering back and forth.

What do I do, you
guys? Like, this is...

This is actually painful.

I still don't know what
I'm gonna do, Carson.

I didn't say anything. You
better be praying for me right now.

I need prayers.

I'm giving you time.

sh**t.

Let me know when you're ready.

I'm just gonna
go with the person

I think is going to continue
to probably blow people away.

Gwen, who is the
winner of this battle?

I still don't know,
so I'm just...

♪ This is "The Voice" ♪

Welcome back.

Gwen, who is the
winner of this battle?

I still don't know,
so I'm just...

She definitely doesn't.

I'm just gonna do
it. I'm gonna go for it.

The winner of
this battle is Kara.

Kara, congratulations!

Brandon and Kara was
one of my hardest decisions.

I had to go with Kara because
she just won this battle.

You were amazing
today. Thank you.

To see her kind of
rise from rehearsals,

if she can grow that much
in a short amount of time,

I think that's gonna
just fuel her fire,

and I can't really wait to
see what she does next.

Coaches, let me remind
you, Brandon is available to steal.

I'm sorry! Brandon, anything
you want to say to your coach?

Before you say
anything, like, I loveyou

and I-I hate this so much.

I love you still as
well. Thank God.

Give it up for Brandon
Montel, ladies and gentlemen!

You're so amazing.
Thank you so much.

We got a steal!

John Legend!

Brandon is
such a great vocalist.

There's no one that sings
like him in this competition,

and I had to bring
Brandon to Team Legend.

I didn't even get a chance,
because Reba blocked me.

He was a four-chair turn,

and you shouldn't
be going home, man.

Thank you so much.

Congratulations, Brandon.
We'll see you in the knockouts.

You got a good one.

That was a roller
coaster. My goodness.

I'm full of emotions right now.

It's gonna be great!

It's gonna be amazing.

We're gonna have
some fun. We are.

We got to get this
man a jacket, too.

Yeah, please.
Get this man a jacket!

I can't wait to get that jacket.

Coaches, the
battles have ended...

and the knockouts
start right now!

It's knockout time,
guys. Here we go.

Whoo! I'm scared.

Okay, explain it to me
'cause I'm a newbie.

This is the first time I've
done three-way knockouts.

This is a wild part,
because we're having

three of our artists
go against each other,

and we can only pick one.

Why does this
not get any easier?

We do have a save
and a steal, but still, man.

We got two steals and a save!

We can fight over
them, so it's almost like

we're back in the blinds again.

Because I could try
to save somebody,

but you guys try to steal them.

The talent level at this end
of the show is just nuts, so...

Yeah, and they
pick their own songs,

so that makes it
interesting, too.

Got a lot of tough
choices to make.

You ready, Reba?

Well, there's probably
going to be a few tears.

Aw. It's gonna be
really, really hard.

You told me, Gwen.
No, I know. I warned you.

Your heart hasn't hardened yet.

That's true.

Do you remember
the first time we met?

No. Me neither.

When they told me Wynonna
was gonna be the mega mentor,

I was thrilled to pieces.

♪ No one else on Earth ♪

Wynonna knows
music. She knows soul.

If they said, "Take one album
with you on a deserted island,

it would be Wynonna."

Like all, Loretta Lynn
and those women,

you've been in my life since
I was a teenager. Yeah.

She's been doing
this for 40 years,

I've been almost 50.

It's 90 years of
experience with us together.

We have come such a long way.

I never had a baby doll.
I never had a teddy bear.

We had canned goods. Pots
and pans and canned goods.

Pots and pans. You bet.

That's what we had.

It was really
important to be here,

because Reba is like family.

I'm glad you're here.

I'm so glad to be here with you.

I needed this to connect

with the next
generation of greatness,

so they get the same wisdom
that I got from Tammy Wynette,

Loretta Lynn, Johnny
Cash, Merle Haggard,

and so I'm passing it on.

Walking in that door
is three great singers.

Jacquie, I wanted her
from the very beginning,

but Gwen got her.

Well, that hussy. I told her.

Boy, when I had a
chance to steal her, I did.

She has stage presence.

She sings with a
band, and a great range.

And Tom has that Chris
Stapleton gravelly voice that I love.

And Alison, I turned for her

because I did hear
something sweet in her voice.

So all three of these
artists are totally different.

Bring 'em on in. Here they come.

My God!

My God. Wynonna?

Heck, yeah.

I'm freaking out.

Her hair is even more
red than I thought it was.

When I walked in today

and I saw that Wynonna
was on the stage,

I was like, okay, there's red

and then there's big red.

Two redheaded
beauties. I'm dying.

Wynonna is the
perfect mega mentor

because she has that
longevity in her career.

I'm very glad that she's here.

Who wants to go first?

I'll go first. Okay. Alright.

You guys can sit
right over here. Will do.

This is gonna be
very interesting.

They built the stage
and the rehearsal hall,

like it is on the main stage

so the contestants
can get used to it,

and I am so excited
for Team Reba.

Alison, what are you
singing for us today?

"It's Too Late" by Carole King.

Wow.

I love Carole King.

She's one of my greatest
songwriting inspirations.

Thank you for choosing that,

because it reminds us of
where music comes from.

♪ Stayed in bed all morning
just to pass the time ♪

I started writing
songs when I was 13.

Carole King is an
incredible storyteller.

I'm 23, so I'm in the
baby stages of my career,

and I'm really looking not just
for a moment, but for longevity.

♪ And it's too late,
baby, now it's too late ♪

I love Alison's voice so much.

I think we need the storytellers
more and more and more and more,

and these classics
are so important

for the next generation to hear.

♪ And I can't hide ♪

Alison has grown
tremendously on the show.

She's having a blast, too,

so her confidence
level has come up.

But I think Alison's
biggest challenge

is that it's a very sad song,

so that needs to come out more.

I see a high-speed chase
in your brain right now.

You're thinking,
"Should I close my eyes?

Should I open my eyes?
Should I move my right arm?

Should I... Should
I dance a little bit?"

Relax. Be still. You
don't have to conduct.

All you have to
do is tell the story.

And pretend you're
not on "The Voice"

and you're singing it for me

and we're hanging
out and we're in the car.

Yeah. Perfect. It's just a matter
of relaxing into the low notes.

The stuff up
here is easy when you have...

You know? Yeah. Totally.

And that very first thing...

♪ Stayed in bed all morning ♪

when you first hear
that chord... ♪ ♪

Get there. Get it in your head.

Bring your voice
down there. Yeah.

Otherwise, absolutely,
you nailed it.

Hearing compliments from
Wynonna was so affirming.

She has had such an
incredible, long-standing career,

so to be able to
talk to her and Reba

and also see their
interactions together,

I was like, "I want to be
both of your best friends."

What do you think is the secret

to having a career
for your lifetime?

I surround myself
with good people.

Jesus had 12 followers,
and he was Jesus.

I mean, he had it all.

And save your money,
sister, 'cause if you don't,

I've blown it twice, wrote a book
about how to lose everything.

'Cause I'm an
artist, I'm the heart.

Mom was the head, and so
I was so naive and still am.

I'm so gullible.
This is business.

It's called the music
business. Yeah. Absolutely.

That's what Conway, Mel Tillis,
Statler Brothers. Yep, that's right. Yep.

Red Steagall, they all told me.

"If you treat it
like a business,

it'll take care of you."

Thank you both so,
so much. Thank you.

Okay, Jacquie.

How do you wear those shoes?

I just can't do
it. I can't want it.

Okay, Jacquie, what
you gonna sing for us?

"Girl" by Maren Morris.

I'm singing to my daughter,

because she misses me very much.

So it's kind of like an
ode to her because it says,

you know, "Baby girl,
don't you stop your crying."

Aww.

♪ All up in my head again ♪

My daughter's name is
Leilani. She's six years old.

This is the longest I've
been away from her,

and she knows why I'm
doing it and she is supportive,

but I'm missing her
so much right now.

So this song is for her.

♪ Girl, won't you
stop your cryin'? ♪

I want to rock
the country world.

I want to be the
new Gretchen Wilson

with fire behind me.

I love me some
Jacquie. I just feel her.

Jacquie's powerful. She's
got a very mature voice.

We're always looking for
strong female country artists.

I want to bring it
down just a half a step,

because I got a little bit lost

and distracted
with the high part.

We have the same producer,

and he's always going,
"Let's do a little higher.

You get in there
and sing it higher.

See how much fun that
is, dude?" Yeah, exactly.

When you're tired 'cause you
worked hard. We worked hard.

I wanted to hear her down
here, because she's a badass.

♪ Whoa, girl, won't
you stop your cryin'? ♪

Wynonna, she does
not just country music.

I mean, she has
a little bit of soul,

a little bit of rock 'n' roll,

so I think she's good
for all kinds of singers.

Isn't that amazing
what a half a step does?

Yep. Good God.

I was with you from
beginning to end.

I'm a little nervous.

Alison just... She has
this crystal clear voice.

Jacquie has that belt.
She has those runs.

Am I feeling a little
tension that way?

Yeah, absolutely.
Come on up, Tom.

Crushed it, Jacquie.

This is gonna be a
tough decision to make,

because Tom, being the
only male in the grouping,

he's going up
against two females,

and the females are tough.

♪ This is "The Voice" ♪

Welcome back to the knockouts.

Tom, it's all about you.

What are you gonna sing for us?

"I'm Losing
You" by The Temptations.

Why'd you pick
that? I love that.

Good Lord. I do, too.

Country is my thing,

but I grew up on
The Temptations.

My grandparents, like, said,
"This is what you're learning."

♪ Your love is fading ♪

Biggest memory I
have is my grandfather

having The Temptations movie.

I sat down, watched the movie

from beginning to
end at their house,

and then all of a
sudden, it turned into,

I like Marvin Gaye.

I like Stevie Wonder.

Stevie Wonder is
my favorite artist now

because of The Temptations.

Tom's country soul.

To do a more soulful song,

I'm not surprised at all,
because that's in his DNA.

♪ There when you speak my
name ♪ Reba: I love Tom's raspiness,

the gravel, the grit,
'cause that shows emotion.

♪ Ooh, baby, I'm losing you ♪

I did not expect that voice
to come out of that face.

♪ It's everywhere ♪

That was such a shock.

I just love his gift. He's soul.

Yeah.

Tom's voice is
out of this world.

Whoo! He's one of my buddies,

but I'm still gonna
have to do something

to get him out of here, so...

Yes!

Something like that.
Yeah, something like that.

Thank you very much. I appreciate
that. Yeah, Wynonna's mouth is open.

Don't judge a book by its cover.

I would love for you to be open

to the idea of doing it
without the mic stand.

I agree. It's gone. Trust me.

You're so handsome.

Thank you. I-I need you,

because I'm
seeing this hat thing,

the whole thing,
so I'm confused.

I'm not saying you
have to dress R&B,

though, that's fun
on a Friday night,

'cause I'm soul when
I need to be soul.

I'm Southern when I
need to be Southern.

I know how to play both.

Like, that's what I
sing is country music,

and I try to throw
a little taste of soul.

What's the best way to do it

without taking
away from country,

without taking away from
the soulfulness of soul?

Mom and I, we were country

because we were
Appalachian Kentucky,

but we were jazz

because Don Potter
was our guitar player.

But the sound was
very clear to the fans.

You've got to give
the fans something

that they recognize
and believe. Right.

Follow the story with
your facial expressions,

your stance, your body language,
your eyes, really especially.

And poke the hat up.

Now I see you. Hi.

If you're ever
shadowed by the lights,

you know the
hat's brim's too low.

Good to know.
She would know.

Love it.

Having Reba McEntire
and Wynonna Judd

giving me the feedback that I
need was humongous to me,

like, huge.

Alright. Everybody,
come back up.

I have to build the
strongest team possible

for the playoff rounds,

so the knockout rounds
are really important.

You have to choose one,

so that means that
two of the people

are not gonna continue on

unless they get stolen by
another coach or it's a save.

Thank y'all so much. Thank you.

I really have to make
sure I pick the right person.

Knockout, day one.
My team is strong.

Y'all stay tuned.

I'm exhausted.

All three of you are
absolutely spectacular.

Alison, the growth
is just amazing.

That's definitely in my
top 10 songs of all time.

It was so beautiful, and
the movements that you did

really told the story to us.

Thank you so much.

Jacquie, I think that's a
great song choice for you.

It showed all the different
parts of your voice,

and then when you got to
the end, you just went for it,

and it was a very,
very impressive job.

And, Tom, that was...

it was
haunting. Thank you.

And it was great to see
you without the guitar again.

To go down this route and
stick a strong, soulful vocal

on a song like that
is no mean feat.

And I think you did
an unbelievable job.

It's a very tough decision
that Reba's got to make here.

Um, really interested by Tom.

Yeah.

Wow. When you see someone
that was on your team before,

and then you see them
again and you let them go,

you feel like you
ran into, like, your ex

and you're like, "My God."

You're like, "They hate me now!"

Jacquie, you were on
my team. You're so soulful.

You handle the stage
like you live there.

And I'm so proud that
I got to work with you.

I think you have a steal.

Shut up, John.

And, Tom, you are a
showman. Thank you.

You're really engaging
and just giving us

a little bit of that soulful,
swaggy side of country.

Thank you so much.
You're all three amazing.

I just don't even know
how Reba would choose.

But thank you. It
was really good.

Thank you. I agree.

Alison, I truly am in
love with your voice.

Your tone is so lovely.

And if I were to choose
my favorite voice,

I would say yours
was my favorite.

The only issue I have
was I wanted to see, like,

another gear from you.

And, Jacquie, I think
yours was the best

all-in-all performance of
the knockout. Thank you.

It just felt like you had
the exact right song,

and I felt like you
nailed that lane.

And so I probably, like, just
slightly leaned toward Jacquie

because I just
think the execution

was a little tighter. Okay.

Thank you, Coaches.
Reba, it all comes down to you.

What'd you think
of the knockout?

Alison, I am so proud of you.

Your composure, what you brought
out of your eyes and your face,

along with that
beautiful voice of yours,

was so good. Thank you.

And to be able to watch

the blossoming
of a beautiful rose.

That's what you are.

My God. I could cry.

And, Jacquie, golly!

You're a force of
nature on stage.

I loved you using
the microphone stand

and then taking it off

and finishing out the
song the way you did.

Your stage presence
is really, really good.

Tom, you're soulful,
you're country,

you've got the whole package.

I loved your attitude on stage.

That little kick thing
you do... I like that, too.

I'm just so proud
of all three of you.

No matter what happens today,

you don't need to quit
music, do anything else,

'cause the world needs to
continue to hear your voices.

Thank you. Y'all are that good.

Thank you,
Reba! - Thank you.

All right, Reba, who is
the winner of this knockout?

Well, they all know I love them.

The winner of this
knockout round is Jacquie.

Jacquie, congratulations!

I chose Jacquie
because she knows her range.

Her showmanship is wonderful.

She's comfortable
in her own skin.

Coaches, let me
remind you that Alison

is available to steal or save.

Alison, anything you'd
like to say to Reba?

Reba, you believed in
me from the very beginning.

And being able to
work with you has been

one of the greatest
joys in my whole life.

Give it up one more
time for Alison Albrecht,

ladies and gentlemen!

Coaches, let me remind you
Tom also available to steal or save.

Tom, anything you
want to say to Reba?

Whoa!

Immediately, Reba
uses her save button

for Tom Nitti! My girl!

Yeah!

But hold on!

Here comes Gwen with a steal!

Stopped in your tracks.

There must be a
malfunction here, right, Gwen?

I'm scared!

When the plot thickens. What?!

I'm just saying.

Sorry, Reba.

The queen is like...

You can speak now.

We haven't talked about the
beheadings since the blinds.

I know.

I think that that was just
an amazing performance.

And I'm just so curious
to see what you do next.

I just want you
to know I'm a fan,

and I would love to have you.

Thank you. Thank
you, Gwen. Reba?

Thank you, Gwen. That
was a huge compliment

to Tom that you did
want to steal him, but...

But! No speaking now.

Don't speak. I
know that very well.

Tom, when I first heard
you, I turned my chair

because I heard that
specialness in your voice.

And now, to get to know
you and watch you perform,

it's a complete package.

And I'd love to keep
you on my team.

Well, Tom, it's all up to you.

Who do you pick as your coach?

I-I... Man, this is...
This is a tough decision

because I love literally all
of you guys sitting up there.

I have to go with Reba

'cause she... she... she
had faith in me from day one.

Reba saves Tom! Congratulations.

We'll see you in the playoffs.

Get down here! Give
it up for Tom Nitti!

My girl.

I had method to my madness.

I knew I wanted Jacquie,
but I also wanted Tom.

Gwen tried to steal Tom.

No, that wasn't gonna happen.

You're so good.

He has got so much soul,

along with the country.

Makes it a perfect marriage.

He's a great singer.

Going to playoffs.
Go, Team Reba!

Heck, yeah!

Wow. Reba, you got
some goodpeople.

Tom decided
to stay on Team Reba.

Shocker.

But still have my steal,
and I'm looking for the one.

Hello, Wynonna. What a pleasure.

Our mega mentor is
Wynonna. How cool is that?

We're all very excited
to have you here.

I feel really blessed to
be among all this talent.

It's renewing, is what
I say. It's renewing.

Get inspired by
all these artists

who are trying to walk the path
that we've walked.

And it reminds you

why you fell in love with
music in the first place.

It's good for us to
get outside ourselves

and do something
selflessly. Yes.

She's here to impart all
of her wisdom and experience.

She's warm, loving. She's
got that motherly energy.

And I think our artists
are gonna really benefit

from her presence here.

I'm excited. We've got
some great artists, too.

Let's go, Team Legend.
Let's go, Team Legend!

Let's go, Team Legend! Come on.

Well, Wynonna... Well?

These three artists are
all phenomenal. Okay.

They were all four-chair turns.

Crazy. Goodness.

I'm excited for you
to meet all of them.

Love it. Are you ready?

I was born ready.

Caleb, Kaylee, Mara,
look who's here! Hi!

We've got Wynonna.

Hi. My!

My goodness. From
the moment we walked in,

I was like, okay, like, come on.

I'm standing in front
of a queen right now.

It's such an honor to
meet you. What a pleasure.

I'm really happy that I could
take advice from such an icon.

She's been in our business
for quite a long time... 40 years.

And has so much great
experience to share with you.

And she's been so
inspired by being here.

Yes. I would just say,
let it go and be free.

The longest trip is from the
head to the heart at times.

Get out of your head
and into your heart today.

Yes. So I look
forward to listening.

Wynonna Judd... she's got
so many years in the industry,

and I was really excited
to see what she could say

and how she could help
me further my artistry.

She was just very
nice and very warm.

Kaylee, what have
you chosen to sing?

I chose to sing "Ain't No Way"

by the one and
only Aretha Franklin.

My goodness! Wow.

I've never sang this song before

because of how
challenging it was,

and I just wanted to, like,
make sure I was ready,

but I feel like I'm ready, so...

You're ready. I'm
singing it for you guys.

She's 17. Can you believe it?

Good lord. My gosh.

You don't even know how
happy I am to be singing this song.

I can do it. I can do it.

♪ Ain't no way ♪

I can connect this song
to my singing journey

because I've been
singing since I was 7,

and I've done a lot of, like,

auditioning, a
lot of performing,

and I've got turned
down by multiple things.

I was like, is
singing even for me?

Before I graduated high school,

I cried to my parents
and I was like,

"Mom, I'm so scared. I
just want to be successful.

I want to make
it out in the world.

How did you guys do it
at such a young age?"

Because they had me at 16
and they got a house at 23.

I always, like, remind
myself, you'll be fine.

You'll be all right.

I feel like with each
stage of this competition,

I am growing even more.

This is what this
competition is about...

Getting better
every time you sing

'cause you just want
more for yourself.

Kaylee is so freakin' good.

It's scary.

I remember being 17,
and I was not that prepared

or that bold.

It's just mind-blowing.

My Lord, you sound
sogood. I wanted...

My Lord! I wanted
it to go longer.

Dang.

I wasn't expecting
that. "Dang" is right.

I'm still stuck on the fact

that you did your
hand like this.

Like, you are
boss. I just love that.

The only thing... I wonder
if you would be open

to hearing it in a
step lower, half.

Yes. Let's do it!

And it's not that you
can't hit the notes.

No, it's just that I-I want to
really be present with you,

and I got caught up
in the technical part

a little bit 'cause
it was so high.

'Cause the first part,
I'm just... I'm leaning in.

That's a sign of a good singer
when people lean forward.

I'm usually telling
artists to go higher,

but in her case...

♪ It ain't no way ♪

Her vibrato is so nice.

♪ For me to give you all of me ♪

That's what I wanted
more of. Yeah.

I want to show them
that I can take in advice

and, you know,
use it, get better at it,

and show them in
my next performance.

Good job. How did that feel?

That felt very comfortable.

Good. You're wonderful.

Thank you! I love you
guys. I love you guys.

Thank you. So good.

All right, Caleb, talk to me.

What song did you choose?

I'm singing "Jealous"
by Nick Jonas.

Cool. And I
chose this song...

I feel like it fits my range
and it fits my voice well.

And I think I can
bring some life to it.

Fun.

We actually covered that
song as coaches... Yeah?

During Nick's first season
as a coach on "The Voice."

I'm ready. I'm excited for this.

♪ I don't like the way
he's looking at you ♪

Caleb has a beautiful voice.

He has a great falsetto.

I love that the
artists get to choose

their own song in the knockouts.

I get to know them
better as an artist,

and our audience does, too.

♪ You love me,
can't help it, hey ♪

This is something
I didn't expect from him.

He's been doing songs
that are more mellow

he embraces the
energy of the song

with the audience.

Yes! Your voice sounds so good.

You're quite the package.

You've got such a

You know, there were
a few technical things,

but I'm not a technical

Yes. I really want
you to talk to me.

I want to feel more of
a connection with you.

Yes. It felt like
you were singing it,

but you weren't feeling it yet.

Find somebody in the
audience. Give them eye contact.

You're telling
them a story. Okay.

♪ I turn my chin music up
and I'm puffing my chest ♪

The story of "Jealous" is
there's this beautiful woman

who I'm seeing, but
every time we're, like,

walking in a room, people
are, like, looking at her.

And I'm kind of
getting jealous at that.

My girlfriend is beautiful.

I met DeAndrea in college.

I always see, like,
people are looking

and people are, like, staring,
so that would always make me

feel some type of
way, but then I realized

I'm the one who got the prize.

I'm gonna definitely
think about her.

♪ Still get jealous ♪

Yes! Yeah!

Fire! Yay!

Thank you, Caleb.
That was great. Whoo!

All right, Mara.

♪ Hello ♪

We sang together, actually,
in the blind. Wow.

♪ I give you all of me ♪

Get away, get away.

Niall was very jealous.

He really wanted
her on his team.

So we're very excited
to hear from Mara.

What did you
choose to sing, Mara?

I chose to sing "Without
You" by Harry Nilsson,

the Mariah Carey version.

That's a serious song, too. Wow.

I know. You are not shy.

One of my earliest
memories growing up

was my mom, when she would cook,

she would always have music on,

and this song came on.

♪ No, I can't forget
this evening ♪

I would literally watch
Mariah Carey's version

over and over and over
again, and I would see, like,

the crowd at the end,
and they would go crazy.

And I just remember
being like... like "I want that."

To think that I'm finally
getting that moment,

it makes me emotional.

Mara has such a
great voice, such a great tone.

I love how she's so
tethered to the classics

and some of those great songs

that have endured
for a long time.

♪ I can't live ♪

♪ If living is without you ♪

It gives her a chance
to wail and sing

with passion and emotion.

And I think she'll be
great with this song.

Wow.

Ooh! John: Beautiful.

I think it's really
hard to sing that low

and that high all
in the same song.

It's so
hard. I'm so with you.

I'm a mom and a grandmother,
so I want to come up there

and just take you
and just do this.

My life coach does this to
me and just says, "Breathe."

It was a little strained
at times.

And you have to
take your time, too.

I think even fewer runs
than what you were doing.

I'm always like, less
is more with runs.

And squeeze your butt. I
do that when I hit high notes.

Yeah, honestly.
Squeeze your butt.

It actually helps.

My coach says do
front and back support,

and back support
is your butt. Yes.

Hup!

We're getting gems over here.

The thing that I need to
focus on in order to win this

is really taking my coach's
and Wynonna's advice

and really, like, soaking
that in and then delivering it.

What a great group.

I don't know
how John is gonna choose

the one out of three.

I don't envy him at all.

I'm speechless, which is rare.

They're so talented.

It blows my freakin' mind.

Thank you. Have a good one.

My lord.

Good job. Thank you.

So amazing.

Whoo! Reba: Wow!

Caleb, you did a great job.

I loved your stage presence
and loved your tone.

Everything about your
performance was marvelous.

And then, Kaylee,
you've got so much soul

in your little ol' bitty body.

Girlfriend, that flip
of the hair was it.

You had us right there
where you wanted us,

right in the palm of your hands.

For this performance, Kaylee,

I think you were
the round package,

- if that helps at all.
- Thank you.

But bravo. Great job to
all three of you. Thank you.

Mara, I've
always been a huge fan.

I think it was just
about getting you

through the first
line of the song.

And then you were
cruising from there.

And then some of
the notes you also hit

and the energy you brought
and your stage presence...

I find when I'm watching you,

it's like I can't keep
my eyes off you

'cause your face is doing,
your hands are doing.

You're very emotive
with your whole body

as well as your voice.

Kaylee, I mean, you
could feel the room yourself,

and to have the wherewithal
and the know-how to go about

taking on a song that
huge... It's so impressive.

Johnny's done
it to himself again.

Yeah.

There are steals
and there are saves.

It just blows my
mind what I just saw.

I think that, Caleb,

you definitely, like,
picked a really hard song.

It wasn't as seamless as some
of your other performances for me,

but I thought your stage
presence was great.

I think there needs to
be a little more sassiness,

but I think you did a
really, really great job.

Thank you.

And, Mara, it doesn't
matter what song you sing,

i-it sounds like it could be
your song that you wrote.

You feel like a
real, true artist.

So I'm kind of
leaning towards Mara.

Thank you, Coaches.

All right, Johnny, you
got the big decision.

What'd you think
of the knockout?

First of all, I mean,
I feel honored

that I got to spend
time with all of you.

Caleb, you have this gorgeous
voice, this beautiful tone,

and you picked a song that,
like, kind of pushed you to,

like, come out of your
shell a little bit more,

and I see it happening.

I think you do have room to
keep coming out of that shell,

but you are just such
a wonderful singer,

a wonderful vocalist, and
we love listening to you.

Thank you.

Kaylee, there's a lot
of richness and warmth

and... and body to your
voice that it's just supernatural

that it comes out of your
body at the same time that...

I know! Thank you, John.

That you're hitting
those high notes.

It's... It's actually insane.

Thank you, John.

And then, Mara, that was sogood.

I think it's your best
performance you've done

on the show so far. Yes!

You sold your connection
to the song, your conviction.

You really do feel like you
have a point of view as an artist,

and it's very
compelling. Thank you.

John, the time has come.

Who is the winner
of this knockout?

The winner of this knockout...

Is Kaylee.

Kaylee, congratulations!
You're moving on...

Kaylee's one of
the most gifted vocalists

I've ever been around.

She's 17 years old.

She can do so many
amazing things with her voice.

She has to stay on the show.

I feel flabbergasted
right now. I can't believe it.

My partners are so,
like, insanely talented.

I'm going to playoffs! Let's go!

Coaches, let me remind you

that Caleb's available
to steal or save.

Caleb, anything you
want to say to John?

I just want to say thank
you so much for all your coaching.

I've really enjoyed being
able to work with you.

It's been a dream, and
just thank you so much.

Thank you, Caleb.
Give it up one more time

for Caleb Sasser,
ladies and gentlemen!

I didn't steal Caleb

because I already had
somebody else in mind.

Beautiful job.
You're incredible.

But Caleb's voice is great.

It's just that the girls
outdid him this time.

Coaches, let me remind
you that Mara also available

to steal or save.

Mara, anything you
want to say to John?

John, thank you so much

for seeing something
special in me since the begi...

Whoa! We got two
steals right away!

I love this girl so much.

No! Stop it!

And it's on!

My gosh. No! Don't touch me!

They're already
fighting over Mara.

He's not thatcute.

No using your
boyish charm for evil.

Sit down, please.

Please.

Well, Mara, congratulations.
Let's just start with Gwen.

Gwen, why do you want
to use your steel on Mara?

Go on, Gwen. Go on.

I'm enjoying this.

Mara, it's obvious

that you need to come
home to Team Gwen.

It's lovely and warm, actually.

He's stealing... trying
to steal artists and coats

at the same time. I know.

I look so good in pink.

Here, you can have
it back. Thank you.

I'm sorry to interrupt. I'm
sorry. I'm sorry. All right.

He's totally trying to distract
you from my greatness. I'm not!

Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead.

I'm actually, like,
feeling nervous right now

because I feel really
passionate about you.

There's so many people
that can sing amazing,

but there's not a lot of people
that can connect with people

through their own originality.

I'm not an actress right now.

This is my real
heart talking to you,

so I would love to have
you on Team Gwen.

Thank you. Wow.

How are you gonna
follow that up, Niall?

Here we go, Mara.

Niall, are you a trained actor?

Yea... Yes.

Mara, day one,

maybe apart from one other,
I'd say my favorite audition.

I'll never forget it.
And John will tell you

I hounded him with
text messages going,

"I'm gonna get
you back for this."

He was in mourning
for a day at least, yeah.

When I think of who's great
on "The Voice" this season,

you're the first one
that comes to mind.

I'm telling you... Thank you.

You've got something
serious about you.

Wow. You now
have all the power.

Mara, who do you
pick as your coach?

Mara! I got you!

Man. All right.

Um...
