23x04 - The Blind Auditions, Part 4

[bunniefuu]

Cameras, please.

All right, guys,
clear the aisles, please.

Take a seat if you can.

Is that water in my seat?

Was it Blake?

Now what?
I see your smile.

What's that got to do with me?
They just said there was a leak.

You are such a liar.

Blake and I have always gone
head-to-head.

I'm a little nervous
of, like, pranks

or, like, anything happening
behind the scenes,

'cause Blake untamed
is a little scary.

Kelly, we're waiting.
I'm gonna need a towel!

What did you do?

She says there's water
in her seat somehow.

She has changed now that she has
her own talk show.

Introducing Kate Cosentino.

My name is Kate Cosentino.

I'm 23,
and I'm from Kansas City,

but now I live in Nashville.

Hi.

Look at my girls
who are making our sauce.

My family is
"My Big Fat Greek Wedding."

It's just Italian
instead of Greek.

It's, like, basically the same.

♪ When the moon hits your eye
like a big pizza pie ♪

♪ That's amore ♪

There's, like, a Rolodex
of Italian songs,

arm-in-arm,
everybody screaming it.

It's great.

Ever since I was little,

I love wearing loud,
vibrant colors and patterns.

I'm a big fan of the pantsuit,

And so I love
going to vintage shops.

I chose my planetary strap
because I'm out of this world.

Either that
or you're on another planet.

That could be.

I love making
custom guitar straps.

I actually started
my own company in middle school

called Big Chick Energy.

It's a fun way to express
my fashion

and my music at the same time.

She's really got a great acumen

for a broad range of music.

She's worked really,
really hard to get here.

In Nashville, I mostly perform
at writers' rounds.

My musical style
I would describe

as dad jokes,
but to jazzy guitar.

I love a good pun, and I love
just making witty lyrics

that can give you
a new perspective.

For my blind audition,
I will be singing

"I Say a Little Prayer"
by Dionne Warwick.

I'm putting my own twist
on the song

with my own little unique style.

A chair turn could
change my life

because it would show
that my art

is getting across to someone,

and that someone is a really,
really cool coach that I admire,

which would be really affirming.

Our next artist is entering now.

Ah!

Wow!

Wow!

Amazing!

Was not expecting that.

Yeah. What...
What's your name?

My name's Kate Cosentino.

I am 23,
and I'm from Kansas City.

You got such a cool vibe to you.

Thank you.
It's clown couture.

Yeah. Clown couture?
Uh-huh, uh-huh.

I've never heard of that before.

That's what I'm calling it,
at least.

That's fire.
Uh-huh.

You're so fun.
I'm Italian.

All right.
So, you know,
it comes with the package.

Yeah.

You have a very full voice,
but it's like

there's a lot of joy
that comes out of it.
Floats.

I feel like...
Yeah, it floats.
Yeah.

It took me a little while
to turn around

just 'cause I was trying
to fake everybody else out.

But once Kelly turned around,
I had to...

Lies and deception.
Put my bid in.

You're gonna do great things
in this competition.

Welcome to "The Voice."

Thank you.

I don't know if you noticed,
but I was first.

I led this.
Did notice.

I love that song so much.
I love what you did with it.

I was curious if you were
actually playing an instrument,

and it's, like,
the coolest guitar.

I feel like that's, like,
from "Wayne's World."

You have such a pretty
alto register,

kind of, like, lullaby-ish.

You really could go
so many places,

and I feel like I would be
a really good coach for you.

Thank you.
Yeah.

Hi!
Hi!

Would you like to be on my team?

The fact that you picked
that song

means that your standards
are here.

You could go all the way.

You've given us this really,
really famous, massive hit

that's really tough to sing.

There's an already-made star
in there.

You've got this... got this
Italian confidence.

Oh, my God. I love your
Italian. That was amazing.
Yes.

Famously, the Irish
and Italians get on.

That's what I heard.
Yeah, that's what
I heard, too.

And you're not afraid
to take a risk.

And I'm telling you,
on Team Niall,

we're gonna be risking
every week.

Amazing.

I write my own stuff with some

of the greatest songwriters
and producers of our time.

Lining them up, already have it.

We'll talk about it afterwards
when you're on my team.

Kate, I love you.
Please don't pick Kelly.

Please don't.

I'm gonna just add,

I would love to have you
on my team as well.

Kate, who do you pick
as your coach?

Oh, my God!

Well, I'm so flattered
by everything.

But...

♪ This is "The Voice" ♪

Welcome back
to the blind auditions.

Kate, who do you pick
as your coach?

Oh, my God!

I'm so flattered by everything.

Like, this is the nicest,
coolest moment of my life.

But...

I have to go with what
my ancestors would choose...

Ooh!
Which is

Italians and the Irish,

we're friends, so Niall.

Come on!

Get it, Niall.

Kate, Kate, Kate, Kate!

Kate... she's gonna be
the most fun to work with.

She's a great character.
Yeah! Yeah!

It matches!

She's got an amazing sense
of music taste.

She's got so much to her.

The country's gonna fall
in love with this lady.

All right. Thank you.
Yes. Thank you.

Uh-oh!

We're halfway
through the blinds now,

but the talent
is still blowing me away.

I'm sure they're probably saying
the same things

in their interviews,
but Team Niall is the best team.

I am so happy for you.

I know that Niall is a rookie
this season,

but he... he is not
playing like one.

I got Irish in me.
Whatever.

I'm 30%.

Really hoping
my luck turns around.

Can I get a little bit
of luck of the Irish?

Like, anything will help.

You lost.

I don't know what you're saying
about me down there,

but... stop.

Just act like you're playing
in front of your friends.

You know everybody.

Yeah, just picture
everyone naked.

Isn't that what they
tell you to do?

Don't put that on television.

Man.

My name is Al Boogie.

I currently reside in the
jambalaya capital of the world,

in Gonzales, Louisiana,

with my wife, Stacey,
of 14 years

and our three children.

You could say I'm a family man.

Music, for me, is like oxygen.
I've got a band at home.

We don't sell a lot of records,

but we've sold
a whole lot of beer,

and we've made
a lot of folks dance

and get up and have a good time

and forget their worries
for a little while.

We're not gigging
as much as we used to.

But on the other hand,
I've got a good job.

I'm a sales guy
for a crane company,

but I've hit a point
in my life, almost 40,

if I could chase a dream

and show my kids
that anything's possible,

man, wouldn't that be awesome?

I never thought I could
love something

as much as I love my kids.

Golly.

I'm so blessed and so lucky
to get this opportunity.

I'm happier than a pig in slop
that my boy's here with me

and is gonna get to watch it.

He's pretty awesome.

All right, I'm gonna
up your allowance.

Yes!

Ladies and gentlemen,
our next artist

is entering now.

"Ladies and gentlemen."

It's so dramatic.

When I step on stage,
you're gonna see

a song that can make you want
to get up and move around.

To me, that's what
it's all about.

Ha!

Whoo-hoo-hoo!

I love that song!

What's your name?

My name's Al Boogie.

I'm a 37-year-old crane salesman
from Louisiana.

What did you say
your last name was?

Boogie.
Boogie?

Yes, sir.
That's maybe the greatest
last name

I've ever heard in my life.

He's Al Boogie.

Kelly and I were both
geeking out back here

'cause we're both
Travis Tritt fans.

And I know that record
so well.
Yeah.

I mean, that was... defined
my junior year of high school.

And I was waiting
for some of the things

that Travis does on his record,

not that I wanted you
to copy him,

but to see vocally if you could
or would go there, you know?

Sure.

And I've kind of felt you
back off

a few of those bigger things,

and so it kept me
from hitting my button, man.

I'm sorry.
Yes, sir.
I understand.

Thank you.
I love this song so much.

Like, Travis Tritt is literally
one of my favorite singers ever.

But like Blake,
I was just waiting

for a little bit more dynamics.

That's the only thing,
but, man, solid choice.

And thank you, 'cause you just
made me feel so good.

So thank you so much.
I'm glad I could help.

I've never heard that song.

Ever, ever.

Like, not once.

I've never been anywhere
where that song was playing.

And I think it's so funny

that all you guys know
that song so well.

I was gonna say,
out of the four of y'all,

I was most shocked you didn't
turn 'cause I know you were

listening to Travis Tritt
on the way over here.

No, to be honest,
it was exciting me

'cause I was like, "What is this

unreleased Blake Shelton
and Kelly song

that this guy's singing
right now?"

Elvis, and then it was
Travis Tritt.

Is the two people that did what?

Isn't it a cool song?
It is.

No, but, yeah, I think
you have a beautiful career

ahead of you as a vocalist

'cause you have
a very unique voice.

And I wish you luck
on your journey.

And thank you for coming, Al.

Thank you, Al!

Thank you, guys.
Thank y'all so much.

Al Boogie has a cool style.

I'm looking for somebody
that can win,

somebody who has
that vocal strength

and that texture
that's different

and is gonna take us
all the way to the finale.

"I've never, ever been anywhere
that played that song."

That song never played
around me any time.

Not in a car or elevator.
Never, not once.

- Polar opposite of me.
- Yeah.

Like, I'll just lie my face off,

and he's honest
to the point of, like...

Gonna be real with you.
"I've never been anywhere
where that song's played

ever, never heard it,

don't even know what you said.

Couldn't understand
a word."

Do you guys know that song?

No.
Wow!

Thank you,
the "yes."

Y'all need to listen
to some '90s country.

Yeah.

That's so specific.

Still to come...

The blind auditions are
taking it to the next level...

Oh, my God.

But Blake won't lie down.

Is anybody else
sick of Blake lying?

Kelly, you should know
lie detectors don't work on me.

I am the master of lying.

Am I your favorite coach?

Absolutely.

You liar!

♪ This is "The Voice" ♪

Welcome back to "The Voice."

Blake, what's it feel like
as you just sit here

in your last season?

You got a few spots
left on your team.

What have you been
thinking about?

Well, I started out, like,
feeling bittersweet

and nostalgic on the first day,

and then about halfway
through the day,

all three of these people

had upset me so bad...

by being competitive and
ruining my last blind audition.

I am so sorry.
Are you?

I'm seriously sorry.

I'm probably gonna talk
to the press about it.

So prepare.

What are they supposed to do,
let you win

just 'cause
it's your last season?

Yes, out of respect.
It's not who I am.

Out of respect,
but they didn't, and so...

One big, happy family
with Grandpapa leaving.

So long, Papa.

My name's Chloe Abbott,

and I am a professional
track-and-field athlete.

And a singer.

I run the 400, which is
one lap around, full speed,

and I am currently training

to go for the 2024 Olympics
in Paris.

When I was a child, I was doing
a lot of musical theater,

and then when I went
to the eighth grade,

I tried out for the track team,

and after that,
track just stayed with me,

and so did the arts.

It was definitely a struggle
trying to figure out

how I can run track full time
but also engage in music.

But over time, I have learned
that I do love it

because track and music...

They play parts
in each other's lives.

You have to be disciplined to
practice vocals for 40 minutes.

You have to, you know,
learn some of those things

that I-I don't think
I would have learned

if I wasn't
a professional athlete.

When that chair turns for her,

it's gonna be kind of
a happy/sad moment for me,

to be honest,
because I might lose her

as an athlete

down the road somewhere,
you know?

So hopefully we can find a way
for her to be talented

as a singer
and maybe get one gold medal

and, you know, let her go
on Broadway or wherever.

You know, I'm just...
I'm greedy that way.

I'm so grateful that my mom
and my coach get to be here.

They have been amazing during
this process supporting me

and seeing who I really am
as a whole human.

I came here because
I want that chair turn.

Having one of those
amazing coaches

coach you through,
like, this process...

That's a blessing.

It's just so quiet.

With that type of guidance,
I can learn

to better myself,
so I'm very excited.

What's your name?

My name is Chloe Abbott.

I'm 24 years old
from Detroit, Michigan,

and I am training
for the 2024 Olympics.

That makes perfect sense.

You got amazing breath control.

All the runs you did
were just very controlled...

Thank you.
like Anita Baker
and Norah Jones, somehow.

I've never seen
that before.
Those are my girls!

When did you start,
like, making music?

I mean, I've been singing
before I could speak,

but, I mean,
I've been also athletic.

So you're training
for the Olympics

or to be on the team,
or how does it work?

Yeah. So basically, you try out
for the Olympic trials.

You have to run a certain time
to qualify for the trials.
Right, right.

Then you got to...
You make it to the Olympics.

So it's pretty tough, but...

Yeah, well, I know
because I've been training

for the U.S. curling team
for...

Gosh.
A couple of years now.

He's a liar.
So I just didn't know
how much different it is

for track and field.

Beer-drinking Olympics.
Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, I hear you.
I hear you.

Yeah.
Yeah, you do.

Is anybody else just
sick of Blake lying?

A lot of lies come from Blake.

Carson!

Good timing.
Yeah, yeah.

Good timing.
What is this?

Yeah, no, you stay
right there, man.

I got to hook him up.
You are more than welcome

to sit in my seat
while we make sure

the world knows the truth.
You can do that, actually.

Yeah. Come on over there
and take a seat.

We're gonna hook you up
to a lie-detector test.
So many lies.

We need to establish
a base line.

So is your name Blake Shelton?

My name is Blake Shelton, yes.

Let's see.

Yes.
He's telling the truth.

Oh, okay.
One truth.

Okay, did you block me
this season?

Oh.
I still don't think
that was me.

You don't think?
Is that...

Oh! I'm sorry.

Oh!
You liar!

Am I truly your favorite coach?

Absolutely. Yep.

I'm telling you,
this thing doesn't work.

It doesn't work.
That is... I'm...

I'm only giving you that
because of your wife.

And me.
And... And obviously
your son.

Did Gwen marry you
out of sheer pity?

Probably, yes.

Deep down. Deep down.
Deep down. Deep down.

I don't lie.
I don't lie.

What was that deal?
You're such a liar.

I don't know.
It feels good.

Looks like a... No, no!

Looks like a stripper move.
No! It's a happy move.

Why'd you take it dark?
I wouldn't know...

Why did you make it dark?
How do you know
what they do?

Why'd you make it dark?
How do you know
what they do?

Why do you...

Now, let's get back to Chloe.

Welcome to "The Voice."
Yes!

And more importantly,
welcome to Team Chance!

I think she was the artist
I was looking to find.

Chloe is just such a,
like... a different talent

than I've seen so far.

Her voice is like Norah Jones,

like a softer,
like, coffee-shop vibe.

I think she would have

stood out on anybody's team,

but I'm glad that
she's on the winning team.

I know that he can
pull out the best in me,

and I'm just so glad
he took a chance on me.

He did! He did!

You didn't know
I honestly...
What?

Have trained
with the curling team?

I'm curling! I'm curling!

Yep!
Wait, do I got left
or right?

Your right or my right?!

I have never conducted
a lie-detector test before,

but I'm so glad that Shelton
was my first.

You're not training.

You just did the day.
With the team.

It's exciting to have Kelly back
because when she's gone,

I really don't have anybody
to truly fight with.

And when she's here,
the fight is on.

Do you know
that I've been to yoga once?

Does that make me a yogi?

A yogi.

Kelly, Kelly,
you should know by now

that lie detectors
don't work on me.

I am the master of lying.

You sing their song?
Sing their songs.

Like, I literally have eight
of yours in my head right.

I love it.
Keep going.

It's a shame you don't know
any of mine, though.

Blake... he's a beauty.

I can see exactly why
the people of America

have fallen in love
with this man.

He's like a new dad to me.
No offense to my dad.

I'm glad that I'm here
for his 23rd and final season.

I've never performed as myself.

This is the first time
in my life

where I feel like
I know exactly who I am,

I am proud of who I am.

I hear, like, boots,
heels of some sort.

I'm so excited.

I feel like it's not real.
Pinch me.

♪ Hello-o-o-o-o-o ♪

My name is Marcos Covos.

I am 30 years old,
and I am from Dallas, Texas.

My childhood was fabulous,

very family-oriented.

I was always surrounded
by music and musicians.

Every family gathering,
I had tíos who were, you know,

giving me $20 bills
if I would sing a song.

I was finally good at something,

and it made me latch onto music
that much more.

The summer
going into my senior year,

my family found out
that I was g*y.

I had always

thought if my family finds out,

it was going to be bad.

When it happened, I lost
all of the support of my family.

I was angry.
I was sad and broken-hearted.

Pursuing music after that
became painful

because it would remind me of
an old life that I used to have.

Eventually,
my mom put her foot down

and said,
"I want to see my son."

And we slowly started
the process of repairing

all of our relationships.

I am thankful for our family.

My family and I
are closer than ever now.

What is that?

I really wish my mom
could be here,

and, most importantly, my dad.

Unfortunately,
they couldn't make it

because it's my niece's
quinceañera.

Hi, Marcos, it's Mom and Dad

wishing you good luck.

We love you,
and we miss you, mijo.

Good luck, mijo.
Love you.

Aww! They just mean
the world to me,

and to hear them tell me
that they love me

and that they're proud of me,
that's all I've ever wanted.

♪ Only love can light it up ♪

It means a lot to be here today

and to bring music back
into my life

in such a grand way.

Good luck, everybody.

Thank you.

I'm ready.

Let's give 'em hell.

He's... He's Texan.

He didn't leave his home state
like you did...

I have to live here.
To be Hollywood.

I have a TV show,
and I have children.

They have to be in school.
They have schools in Texas.

I love when people come out here
and sing in Spanish.

It's, like, my favorite language
to listen to.

Like, it sounds
so beautiful.
Thank you.

So passionate.

And your vibrato is crazy.

Your sustained notes
when you didn't have vibrato

and then leaned into it...
It was so gorgeous.

Thank you so much.
I am such a fan of you.

I'm such a fan of you.

Like, I turned around
so fast for you.

I've been singing along with you

since I was, like,
this big, so... big fan.

Let's keep singing together
and you pick me.

Believe it or not,
I don't speak Spanish, and...

Really?

But your voice is incredible.

Just seeing the audience
reaction, I was like,

"Man, I don't know
what's going on back here,

but I know it's damn good
and I want to be a part of it."

I'd be damn proud
to have you on my team, Marcos.

Oh.

Marcos, you're amazing.

I think you'll be in great hands
with Kelly and...

Yes!

I didn't get to finish.
She screamed.

Or Blake. I think either way,
it'll go great.

No, no.
Oh.

I'm just glad that you're
on the show. Welcome, man.

Thank you much.
Thank you.

Marcos, can you see the regret
on my face right now?

This is gonna be amazing.
This studio is gonna be on fire

when you start singing
in the next round.

It's gonna be great.
Thank you so much.

So, Marcos...

who do you want
to be your coach?

I have this really cool jacket.

Oh, man.

I'm a big fan of you,
as well, Blake.

But I'm gonna have to go
with Kelly.

Yes!
Whoo!

I am so excited!

Marcos... I loved his voice.

His range is incredible.

And Blake just turned
at the very last second,

I think, to make me upset

because he knows
I love Spanish singers.

I'm very excited.

That's a good dance.

Oh, you did it!
Oh!

I knew there was no way I was
gonna beat Kelly on that one.

But it made me happy to see her
get that mad at me for a second.

What am I doing?

♪ This is "The Voice" ♪

Welcome back to "The Voice."

It's my very last
blind auditions,

and I'm indulging myself.

I'm watching football
on my phone

in between artists
in order to avoid

awkward conversations
with Kelly.

♪ I boogie, boogie-woogie ♪

It's fun.
I love it.

My name is Tiana Goss.

I'm 29 from Los Angeles,
California.

What I love about "The Voice"
is that people just like me,

regular people,

have the opportunity
to sing for the world.

♪ No, you don't mean ♪

Last season, I didn't do as well
as I wanted to do.

Being in front of those coaches

and... and being on that stage,
it's intimidating.

I think there was, like,
a stylistic mismatch

between what you were singing
and how you were singing it.

You'll do well if you come back.

You just have to get
the right combination

of song and approach.
Yeah.

Gotcha.

Not getting a chair turn,

it honestly was a bummer,
I'm not gonna lie.

It didn't discourage me, though.

I've never let obstacles
stand in my way.

In July of 2020,
I was diagnosed with epilepsy.

I have, like, seizures
in my temporal lobe,

so that directly affects
my speech and my memory.

And I was like, "Well, how am I
gonna continue singing

if I can't even remember
the lyrics?"

She fought through.
This is not gonna stop her.

Nothing will stop my daughter.

I know that she's gonna
get through it.

And I'm just excited
that we're here.

My mom and my sisters

really encouraged me
to come back,

and I am so happy that I'm here.

Not everyone gets
this amazing opportunity,

and the fact
that I have it a second time,

that's unbelievable to me.

Oh, my God!

What's your name?
Where are you from?

My name is Tiana Goss.
I'm 28 from Los Angeles.

Tiana.

I could not wait to turn around.

Oh, thank you.
When you hear someone
taking that song, you're like,

"I really hope the falsetto runs
are really good."

And you absolutely nailed
every single one of them.
Thank you.

Chance was vibing beside me.

Very much so.

You picked the perfect song,

and it showed off all of
the best parts of your voice.

Thank you so much.
I was here last season.

And I got a lot of notes,
so I think I have a song

that was best suited
for my vocals.

So I'm glad you noticed that.

I just wanted to say I thought
your voice was magical.

I'm so happy you're on the show.
Congratulations.

Tiana,
welcome to "The Voice."

Yes!

I haven't got anyone like you.

I was... I was hoping for you.

Yes!

Is that true?
She was!

My sister's a huge fan.

She's just gonna freak out.
Is she here?

She's here.
I want to see
this reaction.

Getting Tiana...
That was such a good feeling.

Hello.

She was just so smooth, so cool.

I was looking for
some character,

and she had that in abundance.

Thank you guys so much.

Whoo!

I'm so happy about that.
She's very good.

Yeah, yeah, you gotta be pumped.

My team is so good.

Well, she's so different
to what I already have.

She's a game changer
on Team Niall.

I think I'm dreaming.

I can't believe
that this is happening.

I started watching the show
when I was really little.

Good job, Mary Kate!

And actually, the first time
that I heard the song

that I'm singing
for my blind audition,

"Stars" by Grace Potter
and the Nocturnals,

was on "The Voice."

That dream that I had...
It's really coming true

'cause I'm singing the song now
on the show.

My name is Mary Kate Connor,
I'm 17 years old,

and I'm from Ashburn, Virginia.

My dad served in the worship
band at our church.

I remember when I was little,

my dad and his friends
playing in our basement

and me, like, begging him
to let me get on the mic.

And I just was so bad.

But it was so much fun.

We had a friend
who did voice lessons.

Next thing we know,
the teacher comes out and says,

"Hey, would you mind
if Mary Kate

auditioned for 'Les Mis'
as little Cosette?"

Mary Kate was all excited,
and she got the part.

♪ So let's start
waking up dreamin' ♪

We had the opportunity to go

and perform
at The Kennedy Center.

And I remember running
with my little broom,

like, across the stage,
sweeping.

I had, like,
the smallest, little part,

but, like, I remember
going to school

and just, like, being like,

"Yeah, I was... I was
at The Kennedy Center."

Like, I was so awesome.
It was so funny.

From that point all the way
into high school,

I really just ran into
musical theater hard.

Loved it so much.

We are so obviously
proud of Mary Kate,

just the courage it takes.

This is a huge deal.

Stop it.
I'm gonna cry.

It's true.

I am so incredibly excited

to go out and just be myself

and not have this whole script

and this whole character
already planned.

I just get to be me.

Next artist is entering now.

Here she comes.
I feel it.

I'm so nervous for today.

And I think that the most
nerve-racking thing

is just there's a chance
I might not do my very best.

There's so many people
supporting me.

I just want to make them proud.

Oh, my gosh.

Who do we have here?
What's your name?

My name is Mary Kate Connor,
I'm 17 years old,

and I'm from Ashburn, Virginia.

Oh!

The fact that you're 17,
I mean, that is just nuts.

It was incredible to hear
so much power, so much control.

And you're gonna be around
here for a long time.

Thank you so much.

Am I supposed to go...
I'm not...
Go ahead, go for it.

I don't even know what
I'm gonna say yet. Talk.

Oh, you know what?
Do you want a decisive coach

that knows what
they're gonna say?

Um, then I'm the coach for you.

She knows exactly what
she's gonna say right now,

I promise you.
There'll be a lot of it.

I loved how beautiful
and tender it was.

Usually people slide into it
to make it a bit easier

so they don't sound pitchy,
and you just, like, nailed it,

like, dead on,
like a younger Brandi Carlile.

I love this.
Yeah, that's... Yeah.
Please don't.

Oh, my gosh!
Thank you.

I really want you on Team Kelly.

Thank you so much.

I ran into Kelly Clarkson
at a Brandi Carlile concert...

We did.
Like 10 or 12 years ago,

and I was like,
"What are you doing here?"

It wasn't 'cause you were there.

I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.
I'm just kidding.

Your voice is very soft
and angelic.

But also, it's funny,
when you say North Carolina...

It's Virginia.
I knew where you were from!

I'll listen.
I'm the coach that listens.
Okay, calm down.

North Carolina,
Kentucky, Virginia...

There's a thing
that happens up there,

and it's an Americana thing.

And you can hear it
in your approach

because you do swing
for the fence with that song.

Will you do your impersonation
of me and give her my line?

So this is
my last season of "The Voice,"

and I would be honored...

That's spot-on.
That was good.

If you were on
my last-ever Team Blake.

Oh, I like it when you do
this right here.

That's good.
I do that. I do that.

Yeah. North Carolina,
Virginia, wherever it is,

it all ends here.

In California.

Hey, Mary Kate.
Hi.

I didn't turn just 'cause
I figured

that you would fare very well
with either Blake or Kelly.

Awesome song choice.
Strong voice.

But now comes the hard part.

And who do you choose
as your coach for "The Voice"?

Mary Kate, come on!

Let's do this, Mary Kate!
Come on!

This is so impossible.

Come on, Mary Kate.

I choose Blake.

Yes!
♪ Close your eyes ♪

♪ And reach far behind ♪
Mary Kate! Whoo!

♪ Go along ♪
I got you something.

Oh, yeah!

That's it.
That is so awesome!

Thank you.

Mary Kate's probably not
completely aware

of what she's even capable of.
Thank you.

I'll see you soon.
All right.
Thank you so much.

She has a cool
Appalachian sound.

Bye.

And I love that.
I think America's gonna love it.

Let's go!
Nice job!

You were amazing.

You didn't remember
a damn thing about her.

You didn't know
what she was singing.

You didn't know anything.
And she still...
And I still got it.

And you still won.
Yep.

Blake is k*lling it
his last season.

I suspected
that that would happen.

Don't tell him I said this,
but he is, like, "The Voice."

He's, like,
the king of "The Voice."

So it's gonna be really weird
that he's not here.

He will be missed by everyone.

Lost.
