[S3E16] Team Challenge
The homecooks are back on MasterChef after taking a little break for the London Olympics 2012. We are down to six homecooks: three guys and three girls. Will another girl win this season? Tonight, they split into teams and take on signature dishes at an award-winning restaurant. Who will go home tonight?
[S3E16] Team Challenge
The homecooks arrive at Hatfield's, one of Los Angeles' most talked about restaurants. The challenge this week is for them to run the kitchen at this restaurant. Becky and Frank are the team captains this week. Becky (Red Team) picks Christine and Monti. Frank (Blue Team) picks David and Josh. It is guys against girls tonight folks! Chef Ramsay will be expediting tonight for the teams, so he will be organizing the tickets and calling what needs to be done. They will create two signature appetizers and two signature entrees for 22 guests for each team.
The homecooks then meet with the owners of the restaurant, as they describe the dishes they will be cooking tonight and give them tips to making the signature dishes. The teams will be judged on their performance in the kitchen and feedback from the diners. After watching the dishes be made, they have one hour to prep for dinner service tonight.
The teams will make two apps: Croque Madame and House Made Ricotta. They will also make two entrees: Prairie Farms Rack of Venison and Pan Roasted Branzino Red Onion Soubise. The Blue Team gets right to their task, but the Red Team is having some communications problems, as Monti is having a hard time hearing Becky give out the tasks. I cracked up when Christine said that Becky had to amp up her game because she is working on Team Helen Keller! They get it worked out and get started with prep.
The orders start coming back and Becky is freaking out because she is the eyes and ears for her team. Christine is struggling with knowing who is talking to her and who is not and Monti can't hear at all! Chef Ramsay calls them to the front and tells Christine and Monti to start responding to the orders. Despite the issues, the Red Team is sending out apps and the diners are loving it. Meanwhile, the Blue Team has yet to send out a dish. Josh is struggling with his appetizer and the breading is not working and he does not have enough butter in the dish. It is 22 minutes in and no food for the Blue Team.
Frank is feeling overwhelmed by all the concepts of the dishes. Frank sends up his VIP dishes, but doesn't tell Becky, so now they must rush to get their dishes out to the owners. The owner's feedback along with the feedback from the diners will help the judges decide a winner tonight. The owners said the Blue Team's pasta is raw, but the Red Team's looks visually more appealing. For the Croque, the said the Blue Team's is surprisingly good and the Red Team's is lacking sauce. For the Branzino, they said there definitely is some finesse in both their dishes, but the Blue Team's comes together a little more flavor-wise. For the Venison, the Red team overcooked it and the Blue Team came close to nailing a medium rare.
The diners seem to be enjoying the Red Team over the Blue Team, even though the owners liked the Blue Team more. The homecooks make the final push to finish dinner service and successfully completed all 44 diners orders. Both teams are proud of what they did, but only one of them can win. The judges go back and analyze the comment cards from the diners, the feedback from the owners and their performance in the kitchen. The losing team will face the Pressure Test.
It is the next day and the homecooks return to the MasterChef Kitchen to see who won the challenge yesterday and who will be facing the Pressure Test! The winning team is...Red Team!!! I was so worried at first about Christine going home, but they worked it out and Joe says he was wrong for thinking Christine would be a liability! Joe tells the Blue Team that they messed up with the timing and that is huge.
The third season of the American reality competition television series Lego Masters premiered on Fox on September 21, 2022.[1][2] It ended on December 14, 2022 with influencers Nick & Stacey being crowned the winning team, defeating firefighters Stephen & Stephen and siblings Dave & Emily.
Barry delivers a monologue while Team Flash does the mannequin challenge. Then he announces he is going into the speed force to find Wally, but does not reveal his entire plan yet. Jesse wants to go with him, but he insists as per usual that she needs to stay behind in case anything happens in Central City.
Next week the Finale will reveal the winner of MasterChef SA. Roxi technically appears to be better in cooking, especially in desserts. But the local and international media (i.e. The Guardian) are tipping that Sipho will be MasterChef SA Season 3 winner! The challenge will be a three-part one, to choose the winner, and Chef Marco Pierre White from the UK, maverick once Michelin-3-starred chef and now owner of restaurants (but does not cook in them anymore) will be in the programme next week!
Guests were also well-received by the crew and viewers of Below Deck Sailing Yacht, as they organized fun games and activities for everyone. The group had also brought costumes and a trophy cup to award the winner. The guests also left the biggest season tip, hailing praise for Chef Marcos and the team - $23,000.
While the crew faced rocky waters last week on Below Deck Sailing Yacht with yet another anchor drag episode handled impressively by the team, the finale will guarantee the viewers a solid finish for the third season. Many questions remain unanswered, which might be taken up in a potential reunion.
The one-hour episodes are packed with laughter and drama as the crew members of Parsifal III try to navigate issues while serving their charter guests and handling disagreements or fights between the team members.
For Barnes, you have to add to all of this her baby. She went back to work quickly, with one of her goals being to continue to do what she does so well. Yet, she starts to wonder in this episode if she made the right choice. Could she step away from the team again for a little while? We do tend to wonder.
Determined to put an end to this, Picard still has a conversation with Data in his ready room. He tells him that what he has done will have serious ramifications, especially after Starfleet finds out about it. Data apologizes, stating that he did not anticipate his objections and asks whether he should just turn it off. Picard angrily argues that he cannot just turn it on and off like a machine. He tells Data that he has taken on quite a responsibility by creating a new life, which, according to Picard, has nothing to do with the challenges of parenting itself. Data, however, wonders if that itself does not describe becoming a parent. Picard sighs, and lowers his head into his hands, realizing that he is just not getting through to him like this. But Data tries to make him understand by pointing out that in most species there is a primal instinct to perpetuate themselves and, until now, he has been the last of his kind. If he were to be damaged or destroyed, he would be lost forever. But if he is successful with the creation of Lal, his continuance is assured. He understands the risks and he is prepared to accept the responsibility.

In Smallville, Wonder Woman manages to destroy multiple spacecrafts, but she cannot evade the disintegrator ray. Red Tornado, the last surviving Leaguer, contacts the Cave. Moments later, he is destroyed as well. The Team watches on, determined to take up arms. Aqualad suggests a different strategy, as taking them head-on does not work. Robin checks global proliferation of the extraterrestrials, and finds one stray ship in the Arctic, near the Fortress of Solitude. Superboy is surprised Superman had a fortress, but now that he's gone, there'll be a lot he will never know about. Kid Flash vows to kill all aliens, but Artemis points him at the poignant fact that they have a Kryptonian and a Martian on their team.
The lone alien ship hovers outside the Fortress, seemingly unaware that Artemis and Miss Martian approach. Miss Martian telekinetically disables the ship's communication and propulsion systems, and Artemis covers the hatch with foam to seal the aliens inside. Aqualad attacks from underneath, and is saved from a direct hit from the gun by Superboy and Wolf. Robin analyses the cannon and orders Miss Martian and Superboy to detach it. But as Superboy pulls it off, a smaller blast forms up behind his back. Aqualad sees it, but before he can react, Wolf pushes Superboy out of the way and bears the full load of the shot. The Team is a bit dazed, but Superboy urges them on. With Miss Martian, be connects the cannon to the Bio-Ship. She has to decloak the ship for the transfusion to work, and at that moment, they are spotted by two more ships. Artemis manages to shoot down both, but the second craft's weapon is still functional, and hits Artemis. Miss Martian and Kid Flash scream in terror as they watch their teammate die. Aqualad destroys the ship.
Miss Martian awakes. It takes her a moment to realize she is not dead, and her teammates are all alive as well. Batman asks Martian Manhunter what went wrong with the exercise. But Robin interjects, claiming to have no knowledge of any exercise. Batman explains:
He apologizes to the Team, and Miss Martian, but it cannot console her. She is devastated that she put her teammates in peril, and Captain Marvel steps in to console her. Martian Manhunter collapses, and tells Batman that they all underestimated M'gann. She is untrained, but in terms of raw power, she is far more powerful than him. 041b061a72
