Will: Last week on "lego masters"
We 2k drove our teams wild
With a video game inspired challenge.
You'll take all the pieces from your smash
To create remote control vehicles
That you will race.
And the brick pit is off-limits.
- Oh, my god. - Will: Go!
But that didn't slow down christopher and robert.
Their shark car attacked the competition...
Christopher!
...And won a very special prize--
Immortalized forever.
Christopher: To have our car be put in an official lego game,
I don't even know how to describe it. It's amazing.
Luis and alex saw their croqueta car crumble, which mean game over.
Luis: It's been amazing. Alex and I, obviously we're coworkers.
But I almost got a new brother here. You got this.
( echoing ) tonight, it's the semifinals.
For our semifinal challenge, your building rollercoasters.
I'm like, "uh-oh."
Who has what it takes to master this incredibly technical challenge?
I am nervous about the lift mechanism and I am panicking.
And who has the guts to push their ambition higher than ever?
No matter what I do, I can't get it to work.
Buckle in tight.
The season four semifinals start now.
All right, here we go. Rolling, rolling.
Five, four, three, two...
- Oh! - Rollercoaster.
- Rollercoaster? Oh! - Nice, nice.
Yay!
It's so exciting to still be here in the competition.
Being away from my family is really hard,
And so I think it's important for us as moms to win this competition,
Because, one, it's never been done before,
And now we're in the semifinals of "lego masters."
- That's huge. - "ride or die." I like that.
- Oh, my goodness! Wow! - ( all gasping )
- ( laughter ) - they look amazing!
- Hey! - Ooh.
Will is just rocking that suit. It is a vibe.
Game recognizes game.
Builders, this season has been a wild ride, hasn't it?
- Yes. - Yes, it has.
But now you here in the semifinals,
One challenge away from the finale!
- Oh, my gosh. - Yeah!
$100,000, a one of a kind trophy,
And the forever title of lego masters
Is all within reach.
- Whoo! - Let's go.
All you have to do is survive one more challenge.
- Okay, all right. - Okay.
Riders, please keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle,
Because for our semifinal challenge you're building...
- ...Rollercoasters. - ( cheering )
Yeah!
All right, got your reaction here.
Ah, amazing.
I have always wanted to make a custom lego rollercoaster.
Robert: The rollercoaster is really a work of engineering,
And it's gonna really test our limits.
Building a rollercoaster is a rite of passage
For any serious lego builder,
So we're asking you to build some serious rollercoasters.
To ride on to the season four finale,
Each rollercoaster build must contain a mechanical lift
And an epic, stomach-turning drop
That will give your minifigs the ride of their lives.
Brickmasters, first of all,
So glad you're taking selfies.
Amy, we've got four incredibly strong teams in front of us.
- Only three can move on. - Yes.
What do they need to do to wow you?
Amy: When you go to a real theme park,
There are icons that really get you excited about the ride
And make you actually want to stand in line for hours
Just to go on it.
Make sure that whatever theme you pick,
It really shines through in your build.
Jamie, I imagine you go to theme parks wearing a fake mustache a lot?
- Yeah. - Yeah. It's a good look for you, actually.
Jamie: Thanks.
As the lead designer of the lego rollercoaster set...
Such a cool set.
Will: ...What advice can you give our teams this week?
The higher you go, the more momentum you have to play with.
But watch out for your speed
Because going into those loops and those turns,
That will take away speed.
And watch out if you go into those curves too fast
Because you might be surprised
That your rollercoaster car will just fly right off.
The last coaster we built crashed horribly.
Come on.
( all gasping )
( both groaning )
So now's the time for redemption.
All right, we are giving you 12 hours to build your coasters.
- ( indistinct chatter ) - okay, yeah.
It's time to dig deep
And give it your all one more time.
You ready?
Get your brick on.
Robert, use a clear bin. Get lots of red curves.
I'm gonna get the rest of the structure.
Clear bin, red curves. Let's go. Come on.
Hope they don't run out of those.
Should we go get track? Everyone else is.
Kelly: Everyone's getting track.
This semifinal challenge
Is like nothing we've ever done before.
It is super difficult.
So we're gonna need some of these.
Our teams get to choose from rollercoaster track parts
That we've actually included in two of our own lego sets.
There's a red rollercoaster
That has some really nice pieces
So you can keep your speed while going into a turn.
Oh, those are the big jumps.
- Yeah, we're gonna need some of these. - We need a lot of these.
But the yellow pieces are a step above that.
We've actually added a loop element
That is super fun.
And then when we talk about a mechanical lift,
The most traditional way, if you've been on a rollercoaster,
Is probably to go up one of those hills with a chain.
But that's not the only way.
You could also use an elevator lift
That could bring you up.
There's just so many ways
To get from here to here.
This is a chance to really show off
And show us your imagination.
Oh, they have these. Yes.
Well, okay, so this is what I was thinking.
Some kind of sea creature.
Taking off, going for a ride,
- And then-- oh, no! - Yeah.
- In comes the kraken. - Hey, what's your theme?
- Ladybugs. - In the garden.
Ooh. A garden? Okay, okay.
- Why? Why? - Kelly: Drama.
- We won't do that one then. - Were you going to do that one?
No, that's okay. Let's do game night. We got it.
Well, no, it's not "we got it."
Now let's come up with some points for it.
The name of our rollercoaster is game time,
And it's based off of our family game nights.
So we're gonna be putting, like, card games and blocks
Around the entire rollercoaster,
Just kind of incorporating all the games
That we play as a family.
Did you wanna do the little swirly little loops
- That go like that? - Yeah.
I don't know about a loop, kel. I don't know if we can do it.
I don't-- I really don't.
This is an easy way to do it, that's what I'm saying.
- Yeah. - Right?
I want us to build some of our own loops
- Using non-looping parts. - Yeah, yeah.
'cause this is still working pretty good.
- Christopher: Robert, I've got an idea. - Yeah? Uh-huh?
- What's your idea? - Okay, megacore magnetizing.
Going into the semifinals,
There is a lot of pressure to perform.
The brickmasters will really be looking for something special.
You've got about an hour and a half
To finish the spiral with the motor.
Ooh.
The name of our build is dragon dance.
Robert: This is an asian-inspired theme
About a baby dragon flying
Up into the heavens to meet its mother.
We wanna include a lot of really unique elements
Like a big spiral lift
That mimics the flight of a dragon up into the clouds.
I don't understand how you get that shape.
- Christopher: Kind of bending it. - It looks really good.
Christopher: The fact that mr. Rollercoaster himself
Will be judging our builds,
That is a lot of pressure.
What if jamie looks at this and is like,
"that's probably the worst technique"?
Jamie, are you nervous about this challenge?
You're putting off a kind of a nervous vibe.
I have to say, we've done two rollercoasters now at lego hq,
And each of them has been a challenge.
It's just, rollercoasters in general, they're sensitive.
They're delicate.
One part of this model that fails,
The whole model doesn't work.
Oh, it didn't quite make it over here.
Amy: It really is testing everything they've learned in the competition.
We wanna see their technical ability,
We wanna see their creativity,
And of course there's an opportunity for storytelling.
- They have got a loop. - Emilee: I think everyone's doing a loop, kel.
- Except for us. - They're already a couple of teams who are making loops.
Jamie: Yeah, there's some real ambition in the room.
I have to say, looking over at neena and sam's table,
They are trying to reinvent the wheel on this one.
- Hmm. - Sam: Do you see how finicky it is?
We actually have an element for a loop coaster
That they're choosing not to use.
There's some real experimentation,
But there is a real risk that some of these won't work.
This is starting to reach ludicrous heights.
This is definitely though not the time to play it safe.
Will: No, this is the semifinals.
The pressure is on,
- And we throw at them the most difficult build... - Yes.
- Yeah. - ...That there is.
Emilee: This is the hardest thing I've ever done.
Given the choice between watching our teams build rollercoasters
And actually riding a rollercoaster,
I'm gonna go with building every time.
And it's not because I'm chicken.
- Okay. - I'm not.
Okay.
I'm not.
- Okay. - I am.
- Okay. - Paul and nealita.
- Both: Hi. - How are you guys feeling? You're in the semifinals!
Paul never thought we was gonna be in the semifinals,
But I just always had a feeling that we were.
- Us getting this far-- - I'm a realist. I'm a realist.
Whatever. You're negative.
A negative nancy, that's what I like to call him.
- Really? - Yeah.
I need him to be positive paul. That's what I need.
Yeah, come on, you gotta find that positive paul.
Paul: I will try.
Once we get that story pretty strong
And our rollercoaster actually works,
We'll be in the top three, I think.
Definitely. I love the posi-- see?
I'm being positive. "we could win this thing.
- We can make it to the finals." see? - We can. There we go.
- Positivity. There it is. - I love to hear it.
- Do we need to be going higher? - No, we're not going higher.
Personally, I don't like the rollercoasters that have a drop
That goes straight down.
I really dislike that dropping feeling, so...
We're building a kid-friendly rollercoaster
Called ladybug flight,
Which simulates a ladybug flying through a garden.
So you're gonna see giant flowers, butterflies,
- Maybe a spider or something like that. - Something spooky.
- Yeah. - Oh. Hey.
- Hey, what's going on? - Hi.
- You look so cool today. - Kelly: Yeah, aren't you cool?
I said you looked like don johnson.
Who does?
I don't know who don johnson is, so that did nothing for me.
You don't know who don johnson is?
- No. - Dj?
The man? "miami vice."
- The original. - I never saw that.
Put it this way, you're looking at it.
It's a great look. It is.
- Ladies. - Emilee: Yes, sir?
How does it feel to be in the semifinals?
- It's crazy-crazy. - Crazy and exciting.
There's nothing tougher, I don't think,
Maybe in lego building than building a rollercoaster.
I know. We could use your help.
Like, what should I--
I'm really nervous about this, will.
Can you believe you're here though?
- It's cra-- it really is crazy. - No!
- It's weird, right? - It is. It's crazy.
Will: This build gets you into the finale.
It's a lot of pressure.
I've been building lego my whole life.
I can't remember a time when I wasn't.
I've taken home awards at conventions,
I have a piece on display at lego headquarters.
But it's definitely a challenge to build a rollercoaster.
Emilee: I mean, clearly we've never done--
Kelly: We have never done this.
I am nervous about the lift mechanism.
I have never done anything like this.
- I don't understand. - Kelly: It's not catching.
Everything has to be perfected,
And so I'm moving things around and I am panicking.
I, no joke, don't even know why.
I'm about ready to just walk out of here.
I'm trying to keep my composure,
But I am very overwhelmed right now
Because this is our ticket to the finale.
There's gotta be a better way than this.
Oh, that works. Okay.
Hey, over there! Does your lift work?
Paul: Uh, yeah.
Fully functioning?
- For the most part. - Paul: For the most part.
I don't know what I'm doing.
No, I don't even know. I should just give up now.
For this challenge, we're building a rollercoaster.
Oh, I don't know, kelly.
And we are terrified.
We have never even touched a rollercoaster track...
- Mm-hmm. - ...In our entire time doing lego,
And I am having problems with the lift mechanism.
I just gotta figure it out.
But if we're this close to the finale,
We're gonna have to overcome.
Yeah, we need to move faster on everything that we're doing.
We need to have this work, and you've been
Fussing with this for, hmm, three hours now.
- Hello, neena and sam. - Hi.
Jamie: What are you building for us today?
We're gonna do a sea monster attack
At the beach kind of thing.
A massive deep sea kraken
Grabs that car out of the air,
Pulling it into its mouth,
Only for the car to make a daring escape
At the last minute
And leave the kraken in the dust.
- Okay. - Right now we are,
I hope you don't take offense,
Not using your loop elements.
- Mm-hmm. Yeah. - But we've built our own loops.
And what made you not choose the loops
That are designed for looping?
- Yeah, sam. - Hubris.
Uh, you know, a sense of self-entitlement.
Okay. I have to admit I'm having some flashbacks
To when we were developing the rollercoaster.
We tried to build the loop with the red track.
It's a lot of friction if you don't get it just right.
How is this working for you in testing?
- Um-- - let's see.
Well, I mean, we can try it out.
- So there's that. - Okay.
Jamie: We made a loop piece because we saw
- How challenging that is. - Okay.
- I have built exactly one rollercoaster before... - Amy: Okay.
...And you also so how well that one went.
I mean, that was the time in the competition to learn...
- Absolutely. - ...That it's not as simple as it might look, right?
- Yeah, for sure. - Absolutely.
It's something I would like you to think about having a plan b
If you are struggling with that.
- Neena: All right then. Thanks. - Have fun.
- Best of luck. - Thank you.
Light pivot time, I think.
We are moving away from our custom loops
And we wanna one just go for the lego loop elements.
Neena: We could've saved ourselves three hours.
Kelly: Did you get it?
I don't know. Should we try it?
Oh, yeah.
Emilee: I hope. I have hope that this works.
Come on!
Now drop it off that end. Come on.
There you go. Get around that curve.
There we go.
Okay. Yay!
- ( muttering ) - good job.
- Look, look, look! - Dude.
Christopher: Wait, wait. What's going on?
By far the most complicated aspect of this build
Is our intricate spiral lift,
And that is not working at all.
It's not pushing the car up. It's wobbling.
( groans )
This is an engineering problem
That is potentially beyond my means.
No matter what I do, I just-- I can't get it to work.
Jamie: Hey, christopher and robert.
So tell us what you're working on for this challenge.
Sure, so we're working on a really unique lift mechanism.
Our goal is to actually have this be pushed upwards through the spiral.
So the spiral is actually where your cars are traveling up
- Rather than going down this corkscrew spiral. - That's right. Yes.
- Amy: Okay. - Now do you have at least a prototype
Smaller version that you know works?
It's something that we are currently experimenting with
To get the engineering problems sorted out.
So this is totally new territory.
I think this could be super exciting, but I'm concerned.
You have reimagined the mechanical lift.
I'm not necessarily discounting it,
But it has taken us years to get the engineering right.
So I wanna make sure that you have a plan b
If it doesn't work out.
He's basically saying like,
"guys, this is not physically possible to do with lego."
Robert: Whatever we replace this with
Needs to be as interesting as whatever this is
Or they would look at it as a downgrade.
It won't be. No way.
I was ready to give up,
But now that jamie says it's impossible,
I kind of take that as a challenge.
This is the differentiating factor.
I know, so just make it work.
I wanna prove jamie wrong.
- Warning! - ( gasps )
There are only six hours left!
- Oh, my gosh. - Whew!
Build fast, but do not cut corners.
Our minifigs' lives are in your hands, okay?
And we, uh--
We take safety very seriously around here, okay?
Keep that in mind.
- Ooh! - Oh, gosh.
Those poor men.
- Aww. - Aww.
Thanks a lot.
There goes his emmy.
See? See that?
Yep, now it's broken.
Yes, rollercoasters are hard,
But we're engineers.
If we don't get this spiral to work,
We're gonna have to go home.
You know what happens when you pivot midway, right?
I mean, that's-- I don't think that we should do that.
If we can get that spiral to work, that's almost like magic.
Why won't you just take away some of these
And just make it a straight cylinder?
You want me to get a lot of circle pieces for you?
We have been in high stress environments as a team before.
We're startup founders at heart,
And a lot of people have said
That our startup ideas could work.
But we are in the business of proving people wrong,
And this competition is no different.
Robert, robert. Look, look, look, look, look.
- I think I just solved it. - What did you solve?
Christopher: I mounted the push point much lower.
Call jamie over here right now
Because I think-- I think we got it.
Robert: Okay. I told you you could do it.
I literally just spent the past seven hours
Making this lift mechanism.
- And nothing else is built. - I think we're good.
Like, everyone has their track layout working except for us.
So, sam, is the custom loop not tenable?
Custom loop sucks.
I see. Good to know.
Okay, I'm doing a full test.
It's getting up there.
Whoo-ooh.
- Neena: Eh. Yeah. - It's so close.
The challenge is to do one consecutive loop.
I think that we have enough momentum
To get around this curve.
So we add momentum after it.
- How close are you? - So close.
Emilee: It's not reaching?
Sam: If this goes right back in, I'm gonna freak out.
- ( cheering ) - oh, my god!
He did it! I'm your lucky charm!
- Yes! - Thank you.
- Oh, my gosh! - Whoo-hoo!
Emilee: That was amazing.
Functioning coaster.
Kelly: Oh, look at their spiral.
We got this. We got this.
- We'll get it. - We can't do that.
Looking around at all the builds,
There's a lot of people doing loops.
I'm okay not having a loop in our build
If we can get our theme really solid.
- Okay, kel, how do you feel about that? - I think that looks great.
This just adds another element to our ride that's fun.
What if we have a wheel here and a wheel here?
Like, just two wheels. Oh, my god.
Well, they got a big old curve right there.
- That's really big. - It is.
Paul: So if we get through this build,
We'll be in the actual finals.
I look over and see christopher and robert's model.
Man, it is absolutely crazy.
Emilee and kelly have a really strong visual element
With their flowers and their bugs.
- That looks so cool. - I think it just adds another element.
- It does. - And neena and sam's model is going very high.
Here's a big tentacle coming up like, "nyah, nyah, nyah, nyah, nyah."
Wait, sam, do you have a double loop?
- I got one loop. - Okay.
- But you know what I got? - What?
Functioning coaster.
That is very true. We have a cloud.
Sam: That's pretty sick.
So I feel like we have to figure out
What might make us stand out from the other builders.
I'm making a decision. Let's move away from that drop.
Okay, so what you wanna do? Another loop?
Drop it a little bit, another loop,
- And bring it back home. - I feel good about that.
We decided to add a second set of cars and two loops as well,
So we'll have one set of cars going through the first incline,
And they're kind of playing tag back and forth.
Okay, that should be good.
- We're the only team to have that so far. - Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
If it works. If it works.
If definitely is a risk to have two mechanical lifts and two loops.
But honestly, to be in the final three, you gotta take risks.
See if it works.
- Ooh. - Okay.
Oh, right before! It turned up all the way?
Yeah.
Our rollercoaster literally has to work,
But sometimes it works and sometimes it gets stuck.
This car has an issue latching on.
I don't know why. Oh, of course.
We took a risk by having two mechanical lifts,
Two epic drops, and two loops.
It's just not catching.
So if it doesn't work, I just don't know.
- I don't think we're gonna go into the finals. - I'm not sure, yeah.
Well, just push it.
Uh-oh. Uh-oh.
Well, just push it.
We took a risk by having two mechanical lifts
And two loops.
It is just not catching.
But sometimes it works and sometimes it gets stuck.
Come on, get it around the corner.
There we go.
( groans )
Nealita: It's just that part right there.
Paul: We'll figure it out.
Nealita: I love the positivity, paul.
Positive paul!
Double loop? Oh, my god.
Here it comes.
The last one hour time call before the finale.
One last opportunity to catch our teams off guard
With a loud, obnoxious yell.
I think it's only fair we do this together, all right?
- ( alarm blaring ) - ( rollercoaster passing )
- ( screaming ) - one hour left!
- Will: One hour left! - Oh, my gosh.
Get going.
Okay, all right. Let's go.
Aah!
That was fun. Let's see the picture.
Jamie: Ooh. Nice.
- I'm not paying for that. - Amy: Aww.
I can't believe we're having our first test
And everyone else's is done.
During the entire build,
There's been a 900-pound gorilla
Just sitting on my chest,
Squeezing out my breath.
And finally that everything is hooked up,
Can we actually execute it?
When does it cuh-cuh-cuh-cuh-clunk?
Cuh-cuh-cuh-clunk. Cuh-cuh-clunk.
Yeah, let's go! Yeah!
We just got the bare minimum of our track working.
Do you have time to build one giant dragon on top of the cloud?
- Probably. - Then make one big one.
We need to really work hard to bring the story to our build.
Brickmasters, things are getting tense here. What are you seeing?
I'm so impressed with what these teams have managed to accomplish, genuinely.
Paul and nealita are the only team
- That actually has two loops in here. - Amy: Yeah.
- See? It's working. - It is a massive coaster,
And right now it's working mostly well.
- Amy: Yeah. - So how we gonna get it unstuck?
Shouldn't we put a dip in it or something?
Trying to maintain that speed, it's tough.
Not having too much speed--
Everything is difficult with this.
And then you've got christopher and robert.
They are giving us some crazy technical loops and twists and turns,
But is theme-ing gonna come through in time?
Will: It's a massive build.
But we wanna see story there, too.
Christopher: I gotta say, it's so unpolished.
Robert: Well, can you make the body look not like that?
I think the technical side has taken a little more time
Than some of the teams expected.
That's a gap. That's a gap.
This is a big gap.
They're gonna have to use every last minute
To perfect the theme and the aesthetic
To build up the excitement for the ride.
Is there anybody playing it safe?
Right now emilee and kelly's doesn't have any loops.
It doesn't have that epic drop.
- Emilee: Whoo! - They need to make sure
Their story almost overcompensates
For a standard layout for their rollercoaster.
Want me to go see if I can make a spider?
Sure.
It's an element of surprise. Bwah-ha-ha!
You have 30 minutes left to complete your semifinal builds
And punch your ticket to the finale.
That is crazy!
Also in 30 minutes, somebody's gonna be packing their bags
- And going home. - Will!
- It's true. - Okay, coming down.
Ooh!
We realized that our rollercoaster
Isn't as mechanically complicated as some of the others
But our build has so much more life to it than the other builds,
So I hope that will be enough to make it to the finals.
- It is so cute! - I know, I know.
- Oh! Okay. - It's this one right here.
Will: Five minutes left!
Make sure your rollercoasters are working!
- Very important that they work. - Very important.
- Did it work? - Yeah, it worked that time.
I didn't touch it. It just work every other time.
- Are you anxious, jamie? - I am.
- You are. - No, because they've put
So much work into this, 12 hours,
And these look fantastic right now.
- I want to see them work. - Here it goes.
- ( groans ) - amy: We haven't seen christopher and robert
Test theirs for ages.
Christopher: We should test everything one more time.
One minute left!
Christopher: Nope. No time.
The stakes are higher than ever.
- You tested everything, right? - Yeah, like, an hour ago.
We can't mess up this close to the finale.
Everything is riding on this.
If yours works, I think you got this one, man.
No, don't think so. Did you see emilee and kelly's?
It's so good. They might have it.
There would be nothing more crushing than to get so close
And lose it all this close to the finals.
It keeps getting stuck. Why is this getting stuck?
- Oh, oh. Well, okay. - There it goes.
Will: This decides who makes it into the finale.
Judges: Five, four, three, two, one.
Will: Time's up. Bricks down.
Congratulations.
Your semifinal builds are complete.
- It's over. - Hats off to all eight of you
For doing a tremendous job.
Truly remarkable builds.
That was one of the toughest challenges
That we've ever done here on "lego masters."
Congratulations.
Yes, we're tired and exhausted.
- But we're so close to the end. - We're so close!
And to think of how far we've come
In this competition as a whole,
To be in the finale would be amazing.
Builders, we bought our tickets,
And now it's time for you to take us on a ride.
Christopher and robert, you're up first.
All right, boys.
Christopher: The name of our build is dragon dance.
Robert: This is an asian-inspired theme about a baby dragon
Flying up into the heavens to meet its mother.
As you can see, passengers will go through a unique lift mechanism,
Spiraling upwards as the dragon
Slowly makes its ascent up to the clouds,
Building the anticipation, building the suspense,
And then plummeting downwards in a jaw dropping plunge,
And then back upwards through a massive sideways mounted loop,
And finally making a pit stop
Right back at the start to load the next passengers.
- Is it gonna work? - We're about to find out.
So far so good.
( screaming )
- Jamie: Whew. - Emilee: Yay!
So as you can see, we are parked, right, and ready to load.
- Wow. - Thank you.
Wow.
I have to admit, I doubted, but you delivered.
I feel very humbled in this moment,
But it's for all the right reasons.
It's big, it has some wonderful construction
On your track techniques,
And it has lots of functionality.
You've used I think as many as nine motors.
That's the most motors we've ever seen.
And the fact that you were able to use that sideways building
For your tracks to not only do the drop
But also accomplish your real standout feature,
Which is that against the wall curve,
I truly am humbled
That you were able to pull this off
And that you are now able to work it so effortlessly.
Thank you.
You have this massive cloud on the top
That transports us up to another place in the sky,
And you've got a dragon perched right up there
And some great theme-ing that's really carried out
Throughout your entire build. So, well done. Good job.
- Thank you so much. - Thank you.
It seriously is a huge, huge honor
Hearing from you, jamie, that you liked our coaster.
I'm in awe of the sets that both of you make,
And it's just so cool to be here.
- So thank you so much. - Emilee and kelly, you're up.
- All right. Let's do it. Thank you. - Good luck.
Kelly: We've made a rollercoaster called ladybug flight
Where the rider is shrunken down to the size of a ladybug
And flies through a garden.
Emilee: You drop down through a tunnel of chrysanthemums
And fly up around butterfly corner
Where you can see giant butterflies.
Behind our sign is a spooky spider.
We don't want people to know it's there, so it's a surprise.
You come down that slope and it's there!
- ( screaming ) - and you're terrified.
Our coaster might not be as extreme
As some of the other builds
Because we wanted it to be for everyone.
So this is a kid-friendly ride.
I have two kids and me on the ride.
And I love what we did. I think it's super cute.
I think it's eye-catching. It works.
Um, I hope it works while we show you guys.
Like, I'm nervous, but it has worked multiple times,
- So I hope it works now. - Amy: Mm-hmm.
Please do not talk yourself out of it working.
- I just wanna... - I know my heart rate is--
Will: Yeah, take it down. Breathe.
In through your nose, out...
- There you go. - It's gonna work.
Let's see it in action.
Let's hope they have a successful ride.
All right. My hands are shaking.
- Here it goes. - I'm so stressed.
We love our build.
I think it's beautiful. I think it's fun.
But there's still that chance that something could not work,
And so there's a big part of me that's nervous for that.
( screaming )
Emilee and kelly, let's see it in action.
Here it goes.
( screaming )
- Oh! - Yes!
- All right! - And there it goes again!
Whew!
- Emilee, how you feeling? - Amazing!
Oh, my gosh. That was so fun.
All right, that was very cool. Brickmasters, what do you think?
Emilee and kelly, out of all the teams,
You went all in with your theme.
What a colorful and exciting visual.
I mean, these oversized flowers,
Not only do they make you feel so small and shrunken,
But they just really stand out as something beautiful
That you could see from across the park
And you would really be drawn to.
Jamie: I would say, compared to the other builders in the room,
This is the least complex design,
Where it lacks those gravity-defying loops or curves.
You're surrounded by people that chose to elevate it
With something a little more complicated.
We put our best work out there today.
I hope that we can get through.
I feel confident that we will.
- I love it so much. - Yeah, I know. It's super cute.
Paul and nealita, you're up.
- All right, guys. Come on. - Thank you.
You got this. You got this.
Looking good.
Nealita: It's game time!
Look at all those families lined up
For this epic double-drop coaster.
Paul: Keep your hands and feet inside the car
As you spiral out of control.
Nealita: Hopefully your dealt a good hand
Through playing card alley
'cause the second climb takes you through tumble tower!
- Whee! - And we're back.
( laughing )
How was building this rollercoaster?
The hardest part was actually
Incorporating our game time theme into the build.
It's pretty much inspired by our family.
Every holiday, we literally play games,
So it's kind of taking you guys through how we feel
As we're playing our games during game time.
Honestly, we asked you to make one rollercoaster.
You went so ambitious.
You actually allowed for two opportunities
For failure with those two lift hills.
How do you think it's gonna go?
It should work, you know? Whoo!
All the confidence of, "it should work."
Let's see your rollercoaster in action.
- Oh, that's nice to see both of them go up. - Yeah, they're dueling.
- Amy: Yeah, I love that. - It's really cool.
Jamie: Oh, they peaked at the same time, too.
- Will: There it goes. - Nealita: There we go. Yes!
- Will: There we go. - Paul: There we go. Okay.
- Whew! - Brickmasters, what do you think?
- Whoo! - Jamie: Paul and nealita,
You're the only team that added two loops
And they actually work very nicely.
Really impressive to see how much engineering went into this.
Where I am challenged is when you look around the room,
It's really clear what every other rollercoaster's theme is.
And I think with yours, the theme is not coming across
Quite as clearly as we would've hoped.
Our story just isn't as strong as we hoped,
But I just so feel so relieved and I'm proud of us.
We did two loops, and we actually did two rollercoasters,
So I'm feeling great.
Hopefully that's enough for us to survive
And move on to the finals.
So are you feeling like you negative paul
Or you positive paul right now?
Semi-positive paul.
Neena and sam, you're up.
- Yeah! Let's go. - Come on, you guys.
Sam: Welcome to the kraken.
The riders get on the cart and fly up the steep,
Tall lift to the top of the coaster.
And just when they think everything is fine,
You notice a little tentacle
Just begin to tickle at your toes.
It looks terrifying.
( roars )
Sam: And before you know it,
You're drug down the epic drop
Into the loop and diamondback
Where the tentacles attack the cart
As he drags you into his mouth.
But at the last moment, you make a daring escape
And fight through the last of the tentacles,
Hopefully to do it all again.
All right, well, let's see it in action.
Let's just hope these minifigs have the ride of their lives.
- Here we go. - Amy: Are they all strapped in?
Will: Release the kraken.
( screaming )
All right!
Okay, brickmasters, what do you think?
I'm so happy we got to do this challenge
So you had another chance to show us your abilities
With making a rollercoaster,
Because, wow, is this really impressive.
The fact that you're actually using the loop piece,
But having enough energy to go into that diamondback
Which is a little bit of a wildcard.
I also love that tremble under the water.
You know, you know something's brewing.
This is a really nice balance of engineering married with that theme-ing,
And I think you've managed to create a very impressive model.
For our second rollercoaster ever,
I am very, very pleased with how this turned out.
When it comes to rollercoasters, you've redeemed yourselves...
- Thank you. - ...And hopefully this'll be
Enough for you guys to, uh, "kraken" the finale.
( groaning )
- Crack the-- - are you "kraken" jokes?
- I'm "kraken" jokes. - Oh, my god.
I am so happy. I am so relieved.
I'm also a little nervous.
Neena: We've got great competition.
Anything can happen, and I really wanna get to that finale.
You all raised the bar with your unbelievable rollercoasters,
And truly made this a challenge for our brickmasters,
- Am I right? - Oh, yeah.
Jamie: This was an incredibly difficult challenge.
You just all blew us away
And made this and our toughest decision yet.
- Okay, let's start at the top. - Oh, my gosh.
Who won this challenge,
And who is the first team
Advancing to the finale?
The winner of this challenge is...
- Let's start at the top. - Oh, my gosh.
Will: Who won this challenge
And who is the first team
Advancing to the finale?
The winner of this challenge is...
Christopher and robert.
- Will: Wow. - Whoo!
- Both: Let's go! - We made it to the finale!
- Whoo! - Yeah!
Congratulations, christopher and robert. How does it feel?
- Robert: Unbelievable. - It is such an honor, and thank you so much.
We've won three challenges in a row, which is astounding.
Hopefully we're heating up at a right time.
We wanna keep this momentum up into finals.
Now, brickmasters, who is the next team advancing?
The next team moving on to the finale is...
Okay, here we go.
Neena and sam.
- Yeah, let's go! Sam! - Yeah.
- Going to finals! - We are.
How excited are you?
I never imagined that we would ever get this far.
I'm so glad that my mom was here to go on this ride with me.
Neena: It's so exciting to be here with sam,
And I'm proud that we did this together.
- Brickmasters, this is it. - Okay.
Two teams remain. There's only one spot left.
- Thank you. - Amy: This has been such a tough call.
One team gave us a really creative build with a great theme.
The other team gave us a really technically accomplished build
And an exciting rollercoaster.
This was genuinely
One of the toughest decisions we've had to make.
The final team to secure a place in the finale is...
- Paul and nealita. - Oh, my god.
- Good job. Good job. - So deserved.
This is crazy! Oh, my god! That's all I can keep saying.
"this is crazy! This is crazy! This is crazy!"
- Good job. I'm so proud of you. - Whoo!
- Oh, my gosh. - I'm very, very proud of us.
Paul's still being semi-positive.
But, you know, I'll take that over absolutely negative paul.
So, whoo!
Emilee and kelly, I am so sorry.
You gave so much this season.
Jamie: We're so sad to see you go,
- But that was a great build. - Thank you.
This was an extremely tough challenge.
You can leave with your head held high.
I just wanna tell any woman or mom
That they can chase their dreams,
And do whatever makes them happy.
- Nealita: Yes! Love that. - Yeah, just go for it. It's fun.
I'm just so honored to even have come this far.
You both brought great energy.
You were able to laugh at me more than you should've.
Not with me. At me.
And laugh at yourselves, and really understand the spirit
Of what this competition is all about.
Both: Thank you.
But sadly, your lego journey ends here.
Please turn in your minifigs and say goodbye.
Oh, my god. You guys are so great.
Oh, my god.
Emilee: When you become a mom,
Our dreams get put on the backburner,
And I hope that what women get out of this
Is that you don't have to give up on your dream
Even though you have other people's dreams to worry about, too.
- I love you. - I know. Me, too.
Kelly: The brickmasters had a hard decision today,
And the three teams going to the finals are super strong.
But we came a long way, so we have to be proud.
- She's cute. You're cute, too. - Cute.
- Love you guys. Good luck! - Bye.
Will: Christopher and robert, neena and sam,
Paul and nealita, you made it to the finale.
Next time we're all standing here,
One team will become lego masters.
One team will win $100,000.
There's something else that I've been dying to tell you...
...But it's gonna have to wait another week.
( groaning )
Get ready for the biggest build of your lives.
Now go on and hit the bricks.
Paul: Oh, I can't believe this.
Great job, guys. Great job.
- Nealita: This is crazy. - ( paul sighs )
Will: Next time...
Welcome to the "lego masters" season four finale.
You're still competing for the title of lego masters,
$100,000,
But we've had this secret all season long
- That we've been keeping from you. - Oh!
Christopher: This is easily the most amazing prize
In "lego masters" history.
We are on the verge of being lego masters.
We have a shot to actually win the entire thing.
This'll be the biggest build if we are able to pull it off.
Will: Who are the newest lego masters
And the winners of season four?
