Will: Last week,
Lego Masters hit the fairways
with tee-rific motorized mini golf courses,
and Austin and Justin made their first challenge win
look like a piece of cake.
Yay!
Both: We won!
Nick and Stacey ended up out of bounds.
Did we not measure this properly?
But it was Ethan and Dom who puttered out.
Jamie: Did it not come out?
The team that goes home on this challenge
is Ethan and Dom.
I'm gonna miss these people.
And now, get ready to get wrecked.
We know something's probably gonna get smashed.
Will: You're building your very own sky-high castles.
Whoa!
It's a race to the top...
You sure you don't want to just put the big tree up there?
They're finding a way to get theirs taller.
...before I storm their castle walls.
Oh!
...can Brendan and Greg hang on to the Golden Brick?
Or will Evil Will have the last laugh?
- Uh-oh. - Hi. It's me again.
Brace yourselves for a smashing good time.
Evil smash time!
"Lego Masters" starts now.
Man: All right, good to go. Rolling, rolling.
- Wow. - Okay.
Holy bajeebers.
It is incredible to be in the top six.
And I think every step of the way,
we've kind of gotten a little more confidence.
I mean, we won last week.
I think we have a legit shot at winning this competition.
- What even is this? - Oh!
- What is going on? - His grand entrance.
- Whoa! - ( cheering )
Hey there.
- There you are. - Oh, hey.
Wow.
Liam: Obviously, we're gonna be smashing more Lego,
which is a lot of fun.
We never get to do that at home, so...
Brickmasters, it's safe to come out now.
- There they are. Oh, careful. - Ooh!
- Go, go, go, go. Okay. - Yay!
- You made it! - Will: Throughout the season,
we've tested your technical abilities,
your creativity, your storytelling,
your email password security--
which, by the way, Dave, you gotta do better than "hockey123", man.
You got me.
But now a test of strength, height, and style.
- Ooh, okay. - Ooh.
You're building your very own
tough-as-nails castles.
Whoa!
Classic Lego creation. We're building castles.
Castles are probably one of our first sets that we had as kids.
This is childhood all over again.
We want to see spectacular sky-high castles
that can withstand whatever we through at it.
Because we are going to throw something at it.
- Yes. - Actually that?
We work hard on something, then we watch Will destroy it.
Will: I don't think your castles stand a chance.
But trust me, it'll be fun to watch them get wrecked in super slow mo.
- These are my favorite kinds of challenges. - Yeah, it's a good one.
Brickmasters, how are we leveling up
these castle builds in this challenge?
For today's challenge, the tallest castle
will be safe from elimination.
Oh.
But you'll also have to move that castle to the judging area,
so it has to be super strong,
and you're not allowed to use any Technic elements.
- Wow. Okay. - Easy.
Liam: Technic is very strong, but it's also more flexible.
So not being able to use Technic
is going to make our build really tough.
But height should not come at the expense
of great creativity and storytelling.
Brendan and Greg, you are still holding on to the Golden Brick.
Anything can happen with a challenge like this. There it is.
Do you think this could be the week
that you finally hand it back over?
Greg is really into castles.
I'm really into technical building and strength.
So, hopefully we've got a shot at this.
Well, we are giving you nine hours
to build a castle fit for a king.
Or a queen.
Or a knight or a jester,
which gets me to our next point.
It's time for you to meet your all-powerful rulers.
Oh! They are in here.
So one at a time, you're gonna come on over
and randomly select the Medieval minifig
that you'll be building a themed kingdom for.
- That's cool. - Okay, fun. I like this.
Austin and Justin, you're up first.
Come on up. You can't look.
- Oh, come on. - Get something good.
Will: Take it back with you. Don't look. Go back.
- Oh! - Get out of here.
Emily and Liam, you're up.
- Okay? - Okay.
Emily: It's so exciting.
Oh, I don't have to hold it up high.
- All right. - Okay.
All right, Austin and Justin, who'd you guys get?
- We got the wizard. - Ooh.
Will: You got the wizard!
Justin: It's instant nostalgia for me
because that figure was in every one of my castle sets growing up.
Nice, okay. Emily and Liam, who'd you guys get?
We got the Troll Queen.
Will: Okay. ( laughs )
Troll Queen, all right.
Stephen and Stephen, you're up.
We got the troll.
The troll is perfect for us.
It's got size, it's got strength,
and it looks like he wants to smash stuff.
I think this is gonna work out really well for us.
- Will: Dave and Emily? - We got the Forest Maiden.
Will: Forest Maiden. Nice.
Nick and Stacey, who did you guys get?
We got the Snow Guardian.
Will: Snow Guardian. Okay.
Stacey: I like that a lot.
- Brendan and Greg? - We got the jester.
Greg: We pull out the jester, and I have to admit,
that we're sort of, like, serious and competitive
and very engineer-oriented guys, so, we're like, a jester.
Like, I'm not exactly sure what to do with this.
- Are you ready? - All: Yes!
Your nine hours starts...
Now! Get your brick on!
- Let's go! - Let's go, let's go, let's go!
- What color are we making it? - I don't know. What colors do you want to use?
- Her arms are dark tan. - Okay.
Bottom line is, we gotta start building, like, right now.
We want to make this as tall as possible as fast as possible.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. - I think we should go for tallest.
The question is, like, do we put all of our eggs in the height basket?
And if we don't make the height measurement,
we could always throw down the Golden Brick
- if we don't feel good about it. - Right.
Do we want an evil wizard or a good wizard?
That might be a good place to start, right?
I always go bad. Dark side.
Me and my kids build castles all the time.
I really hope that I make them proud.
If I'm a hero in their eyes, than I've won.
Given that he's a snow guardian,
we can have him be at the top of the world.
Stacey: Nick and I need this win
because we've been in the bottom.
Nick: Yeah, we have to get competitive at this point.
If that means making sure we have the biggest build,
then that's what we're gonna try to do.
It'd be pretty nice to just have immunity from this challenge.
- We're trying to build at least-- - 18 feet. 18 feet.
At least three Emilys high.
So, they're trying to go 18 feet, next to us.
When I was a kid, my dad and I would build these gigantic towers,
and then I would get to push it over,
so that's definitely one of my strong suits.
All right, Nick. We got this, right?
You want strong, stylish, and tall, like me.
We got the troll.
The foundation is going to be super important
to withstand the force of the wrecking ball.
So we're focusing on a very strong foundation,
and then we'll figure out the height component.
Will seems to have an infatuation with smashing,
blowing up, or otherwise destroying Lego creations.
And I'm okay with it.
As firefighters, we're used to smashing stuff
and breaking down doors and whatnot.
This is an opportunity for us to prove
we can break the wrecking ball.
We might be able to get that ball to deflect a little bit.
I'll just punch this at random times
the higher we get and test it.
- ( groans ) - I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
So I'm so excited to smash stuff at the end of this challenge,
but I want to make sure that I've prepped.
So I'm gonna practice a little bit here
and I'm gonna put these guys on notice, too.
Listen up, everybody.
This is what's gonna happen to your builds
- at the end of this challenge. - Whoa!
- Hope you're ready. - Oh, no.
Oh, no!
- Everybody, take cover! - No, Will! Don't do it!
- Oh, no! - Come on!
- Ah, he had it coming. - That was adorable!
- That's an expensive Lego set. - He's in one of those modes.
- Yeah. - Hello.
- Hey, Brickmasters. - Nick and Stacey.
How are you feeling? New week, new challenge.
Sometimes we get a little too ambitious with our ideas,
so we actually have a very different strategy for this build,
because we don't want to have an unfinished build again.
Our strategy is to build sideways 'cause it allows us to build quickly.
So, these are gonna quickly become huge towers right in the middle.
- Love it. - Jamie: And who is your character?
We have the Snow Guardian.
Stacey: And we are building an arctic castle.
The castle is gonna look like ice blocks,
and we're gonna have a monster character
that's gonna be attacking our castle.
We actually do want to fill the inside of our build
with red, yellow, and orange.
So that way when it smashes, it's like the lava monster unleashed all of his lava.
I would just urge you to remember,
if you're gonna build a character or two,
make sure they're really impactful
and the best characters you can possibly build.
- Yes, yes. - Yes.
- Two more like this? I'm on it. - Yes, please.
How's your guys' coming?
It's all interlocked, cross locked.
Then Brendan's running these T-beams up the insides of the walls.
Hey, Greg, stop giving away our secrets.
- Greg, give away all your secrets! - Hey!
Greg's wasting time and walking around to check out all the other castles.
And I'm fine with him wasting his build time,
so I just start asking him what they're doing.
- What's your nest layer gonna look like? - None of your business.
- See where those two white beams are? - Yeah.
- That's where the checkerboard goes. - Nice!
- Wait, I need to hear this. - No. No, you don't.
If he wants to waste all of his build time hanging out at our station?
Please do.
- Is the height good? - David, shut up.
- Hello. - Hey, guys.
Austin and Justin, hello.
Tell us about your castle build.
So, we have the wizard.
And he is the prisoner in an evil wizard's castle.
So he summons all of his powers
to destroy the evil wizard's castle.
- Okay. - This wizard is visiting someone else's castle,
but this challenge is actually
that it's supposed to be the blue wizard's castle.
So, how are you gonna work with that?
We're kind of working out-- hashing out--
Our story phase is still in the process.
I think you need to find a way to anchor it to this character.
- Sure, okay. Okay. - We can overcome.
- All right, good luck. - Thank you, guys.
I thought they were gonna like this idea.
This isn't gonna go well for us.
This sucks.
Hmm.
Justin: This week's challenge is to build castles,
and the Brickmasters are very, very clear
that this has to be our character's castle.
He cannot be a prisoner in somebody else's castle.
Well, I'm not gonna start this over.
No, we're not starting this over at all.
We could do red turning into blue as, like, a transition.
That actually could work.
Austin: So we're gonna change our story
and the color scheme to be more of a blue castle
that is being overtaken by a red wizard.
- A little pivot. - A little pivot.
I need brick. A lot of it.
- Brendan and Greg. This is looking good. - Brickmasters.
Tell us a little bit about how you're approaching this castle challenge.
We got the jester minifig, and I have to admit,
at first I was like, "Aww, man."
Like, they're not kings or guardians or wizards
that have castles, so it took me a little bit.
And then was like, all right, well, let's celebrate this guy.
Brendan: It's playful. It's colorful.
Greg: Yeah, our castle is Jolly Ol' Jesters,
which is a jester-themed castle
that's all about theater and drama and comedy.
I certainly love the playfulness from you in this challenge.
It's maybe not something we've seen from you...
- That's very true. - ...that much before in the other challenges.
- I think you always take the challenge quite seriously. - You're right.
- We're so serious. - You always go engineering first.
- So I love that you're pushing the playful side. - How high are you going?
Are you actually trying to go all the way?
- So, we have designed it... - Yes.
...in a way that we hope we can build as tall as the clock allows us.
- All right. Good luck, thanks. - Good luck.
Okay, I take that as good feedback.
I think we need to just keep having a ball with this one.
- Yeah. - I'm just playing with Lego, man.
Hey, Brickmasters, check this out.
- Hey, Will. - What do you think?
- Oh, that's nice. - Yeah, it's nice, right?
I'm thinking of becoming a chalice guy.
- Okay. - I think I can pull this off. What do you think?
- Yeah. - Sure, yeah.
It's very medieval, Will.
- Yes. - ( thunder )
- Whoa. - What?
Oh, come on. Not this guy again.
Stop the clock!
Did someone say "Evil Will"?
Will: No one said that, okay?
I mean, maybe Amy said, "Medieval, Will."
Eh, close enough.
All right, builders, you remember Evil Will?
Of course they remember Evil Will.
I'm the break-out star of "Lego Masters."
- #EvilWillArmy. - Stop that.
Like and subscribe.
Am I doing that right, Nick and Stacey?
No!
What are you even doing here?
Well, besides helping your ratings-- you're welcome--
I'm here to deliver an evil unexpected twist.
- No! - Will: Aw, come on. What's the twist?
These teams are working so hard on their castles.
Well, enjoy them while you can.
Because in the end,
they're gonna get smashed to pieces.
- 'Kay. - Uh, yeah, dude.
They already know that. That's the challenge.
- It is? - Yeah.
You know, I don't think I'm on the production e-mail list this season.
I actually-- and I did switch e-mail addresses,
so... I hope they don't break.
Or they do break, but the ball breaks, too, or something.
I don't know how the evil math works on this.
Look, let me just collect my evil thoughts
and get back to you.
- Bye-ee. - Wow.
Well, that was pointless.
All right, let's start the clock back up now.
- Okay. - Let's do this!
Still fitting the theme of what we're doing.
One of the biggest challenges of this build
is we can't use Technic elements.
So we're using different techniques
that we have in our bag of tricks.
Official Lego technique, everybody.
You think the wrecking ball's got force,
just have me stand on stuff.
- Hello, Stephen and Stephen. - Hey there.
- Hello, Brickmasters. - This looks impressive. What are you working on?
- Well, we got the troll figure... - Uh-huh.
...so we're building an old guard tower
that the troll has occupied and created as his own castle.
So we're starting with a big sandstone base that is robust,
that we're hoping can at least slow the destruction down to a minimum.
Oh, you're optimistic. Have you seen this wrecking ball?
Have you seen this wrecking ball?
So, are you testing it somehow?
- Yeah, he stands on it every now and then. - Little bit.
You have actually done a stand test?
- Yep. It's solid. - Okay.
Nick and Stacey's is the tallest.
- For now. - Hello, Emily and Liam.
- Hello. - Hey.
Look at this. What is going on here?
You've got some nice colors, patterns, striping.
Emily: Well, we've got the Troll Queen.
Liam: Queen Radiance was cursed by an evil wizard
and transformed into a troll.
So we are planning on having four brick-built towers
and we're representing the curse as it's infecting the castle.
- Wow. - Okay.
So are you trying to become the tallest castle in the room?
I would like to go for tallest,
but depending on how tall some other builds get,
we'll have to see how that goes.
Liam loves the idea of building the tallest castle in the room,
but it has to be finished, it has to have the details,
and somehow the clock is going much faster this build than we're used to.
- Remember, we're also leaning into height. - I know.
- All right. Keep going up. - Certainly is.
- We're getting there. - Yeah.
Emily: We get five feet, I'm happy.
Five feet? Are you joking?
- Five feet, I think, is not unrealistic. - Holy moly!
I'm feeling competitive about going for the tallest.
Dave: Yeah, go for the tallest, guaranteed immunity.
- You know you're not-- - Emily: I'm sick of being a bridesmaid.
Right? I want to get a win.
We've got the Forest Maiden,
and we're going to build her a forest haven castle.
Dave: So the Forest Maiden to me,
she's, like, in tune with the forest.
- She's like Mother Earth. - Yeah, exactly.
It's hard to know if other people are gonna go up high fast at the end as well.
- Grab the other piece. - Biggest competition, I think, is Nick and Stacey.
Emily: Is ours gonna be taller than theirs, David?
Absolutely. They're coming up with the height,
but I don't think they're gonna reach us, so let them try.
Will: Okay, so we're here with another Brick Tip
with Brickmasters Amy and Jamie.
What's important to keep in mind when building a castle?
Yeah, castles are all about details and text--
texture!
- What? - Yeah!
More smashing coming your way on "Lego Masters."
So, Amy and Jamie, it's been a while
since Fox has let me come in here and destroy
- our builders' hard work. - Amy: Yes.
And I can't wait, as you can imagine.
So, what's going on right now with this challenge? Where are we at?
We've asked our teams to build themed castles.
But not just any castles. We want them to be tall castles.
And we have two teams that are brewing up a real height rivalry right now.
- Yes. - Nick and Stacey and Dave and Emily.
Jamie: But there's another contender.
Brendan and Greg have also mentioned
that they have an ambition to get tall as well.
And highest is safe from elimination.
Amy: Yes, safe from elimination.
It doesn't mean they win the challenge.
We also want our teams to build gorgeous castles
with architectural details and a creative story.
Yeah, and if they're really smart, they're gonna make sure
that that explosion further tells their story
or reveals their character.
- So we're just gonna need a ton of orange, red, and yellow. - Okay.
- Yeah. - Amy: A team like Stephen and Stephen,
they have a really interesting character with the troll,
so they have an opportunity
to make a very unconventional castle.
But I don't think height is their first focus here.
They want to stop your wrecking ball.
- Oh, really? - That base is solid.
They think it's going to be quite strong.
Are you telling me-- you telling me that these Canadian firemen
are gonna come in here and they're gonna stop my wrecking ball?
Let's see. Let's see.
Stephen and Stephen are in for a big surprise.
( Canadian accent ) And I know that they hear me, eh?
There's Crash. I got a smile on his face. He knows.
You can't dodge the wrecking ball.
Stephen: How the heck are we gonna pull this off?
( laughing )
Austin and Justin pivoted
based on your recommendations,
and now we're seeing way more blue in their build.
They are now rethinking how this castle is now the blue wizard's castle,
and we need to believe it when we see it
without necessarily them just telling us.
We have so much to do, man.
- See, Emily and Liam? - Jamie: Yeah.
Amy: They promised us four towers.
- Yes. - And I can see that one of those towers
hasn't even been started.
I would love to do four towers.
- Honey, we're gonna be crunched just to get this one done. - Okay, okay.
- You know what I mean? - Yeah, that's true. That's true.
We can see there's a battle for height going on across the room.
- It is intense. - Yeah.
Take a look at Dave and Emily's now.
- That's smart. - Oh, my God, look at Nick and Stacey's tower.
- They're going for the height. - Yep.
We still need to have not just a tall castle,
but a strong one with a good story.
So it's a lot to balance in this challenge.
And at some point you can't really do it all,
so you have to choose what you're going to put an emphasis on.
- So far, ours is the tallest. - I think we're at five feet.
I don't think anyone else is that close.
We're not far off.
At this point, do we just stay out of the height fight?
We could potentially go higher.
It is designed for height.
- Hey, Master Arnett. - Brendan and Greg.
This is another challenge where you have
the Golden Brick, it's right there.
- Yes, sir. - Now, it doesn't mean that you guys are slacking off.
'Cause you're not. You've built quite a lot already.
- We're really trying not to slack off. - You're not at all.
But you've got this thing right here reminding you...
- Not to suck. - Not to suck.
But if we need it, if things go sideways...
Dave and Emily over there said that they're planning to go for five feet.
Five feet is a lot, and right now, you know, we're only--
we're only just under two feet right now, so...
If my math is correct, that's more than double what you've got right now.
Yeah, that's absolutely correct.
- That's a lot, and not a ton of time to do it. - For sure.
Dave and Emily are clearly going for height with their castle.
I'm just looking at it, man. Looking good.
So, we'll probably just have to stay out of your height war.
And Nick and Stacey are also charging up from behind.
We're not getting in the height battle.
So we can build this up, but--
Oh, yeah, they're like five feet already.
We're not gonna be able to catch 'em.
- Stephen and Crash. - Hi, how are you?
So, you guys think that you're gonna duck the wrecking ball.
We're gonna give it a run for its money, for sure.
Don't underestimate my desire to smash Lego builds.
- I'm right there with you. - I know you are. Of course, you are.
You're used to smashing stuff.
You've smashed stuff that belongs to us.
- Yes. - And let's go and take a look again.
( yelling )
There it is. Right? I can't get enough of it.
- So now... - We wanted to cover our bases and have some strength there
so that we could have maybe a second hit for you.
Thank you. By the way, like it already.
- It's all about you. - Well, obvie.
- Oh, hey-- hey, Will. - Hi.
- Hi, guys. - Are you gonna measure how tall I am?
Um, could we bring in the smaller one?
That's cute.
Every castle needs a ruler, so I brought you one.
Aw, thank you.
Let's see. Want to compare this
to the other tall one in the room.
I can't let them peek either.
Okay. Not bad.
Okay.
I'm gonna go over here. I'm gonna measure these guys.
How high is theirs?
- I can't say. I can't say. - Oh, okay.
Pretty good.
Do we still need to go higher?
Can you cover your ears for one second?
- It's not related to this. - Okay.
( no audible dialogue )
- Okay. - He made me cover my ears.
It's a race to the sky.
Is it gonna be Dave and Emily or Nick and Stacey?
Well, we're gonna find out soon enough on an all-new--
No, it's not all-new. It's the same episode.
We've been doing this for a while. All right.
God. Dave, don't comment on the show as we go.
Are you trying to ruin it?
I have never been more excited about a time call,
'cause the time to smash things is almost here.
One hour left!
One hour before I destroy everything you hold dear to you!
Does he do this show just so he can smash things?
- Do you feel good about being able to do a monster? - Yes.
Stacey: Nick and I are known for our really fun, playful characters.
Yeah, so we're gonna have this lava monster attacking our castle
with all sorts of fun colored bricks right inside.
This is what I've got so far. Just got to do his head.
- Okay. - I know it's not the most exciting build,
but I don't want to take away from actually completing the tower,
so I just want to get them done quicker.
We're struggling to make sure that we have that,
but still make sure we get the height that we want in the build,
get all those details finished,
and it's certainly gonna be a race
to get it all done.
Does he look okay like this?
What's the back of him look like?
It's awful, but it is what it is.
Trying to think of what else we can do
to make this look cool in the time that we have.
What if we sculpted a wizard's hat
- as, like, the cap? - Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
In 30 minutes, I can get that done.
We were trying to think, what's an icon of the wizarding world?
And it's the hat.
Austin just cranks one out so fast.
- Crunch time. We put it together. - Awesome.
I start playing metal music in my head.
- More flames. - More flames. Always.
So, Brickmasters, both of these builds
look like they're kind of neck and neck right now.
Amy: Mm-hmm. And we know our teams are fast builders.
These towers could get much taller than we see them right now.
And this would be one of those challenges
where you could just wait till the very last moment
and add on a top piece to be that much taller.
Exactly.
You sure you don't want to just put the big tree up there?
They're finding a way to get theirs taller.
- Are they? - Yeah.
- You like that tree being lopsided that way? - Yes, I do.
- No. The way it is. - I want to put a snowflake on top.
So, we'll see.
- It's a really close race for height. - It's really close.
Stacey: It would feel so good to be safe from elimination.
So we are scrambling to build our snowflake.
And I think that's gonna make us have
the tallest tower in the room.
- About five minutes left. - It's rock solid.
Yeah, it's a little-- four feet, I think.
- That looks better. - 'Kay.
We got this, Nick.
I'm not going to be able to get anymore on here.
Dude, that wizard hat came out so great.
They're gonna see unfinished elements.
Liam, Just put it on.
Put it on, 'cause we're out of time.
- One minute left. - Aah!
Put those finishing touches on your castles.
Eww, there's beard hair in this.
Time is almost up!
- Is that straight? - Yeah.
- Yeah? - A little precarious.
- A little scary. - There's no making them any taller now.
Judges: Three, two, one!
Bricks down!
Whoo! Yay, yay!
Did you see the snowflake?
That was just enough for them to get it higher.
Those sassy sons of guns.
Who do they think they are,
trying to win this height competition?
This week you each built tall,
beautiful, and seemingly impenetrable castles.
Now, the Brickmasters are gonna review your builds
and judge them on height and aesthetics
before we test just how strong they really are
with a wrecking ball.
- ( sighs ) - Ooh, you love that bit.
Before we get judging, Brendan and Greg,
you've got the luminescent Golden Brick.
Would you like to use the Golden Brick
to protect you from elimination today?
If we play it right now in a build that we feel very confident on,
then we could just be throwing the Golden Brick away.
Well, we're hoping that the jester
can LOL his way out of the bottom two,
- so we're gonna say no. - Will: No.
That means only the team with the tallest castle
will be safe from elimination today.
Please let down your drawbridges
and welcome us into your castles.
- Dave and Emily, you're up. - Whoo!
Dave: Nick and Stacey are the only competition for height, and that's it.
But even if it's the tallest, ours is more castley.
Oh, yeah. If it comes down to us and them, we got this.
- We got it. - Actually, if it comes down to us and anyone,
- we got this. - We got it.
- We got the nicest-looking castle. - Bingo.
So we got the Forest Maiden.
Nick: She's got a castle in the forest
where she welcomes all the life of the forest.
And the life force, the magic of all that life in the forest,
it helps build the tallest tower of her castle
taller and taller and taller.
We really want to represent ourselves in this build.
So to represent me, we went for height.
And to represent Emily, we went for something that was not hideous.
I'm sorry?
Oh, we wanted it to be, like, aesthetically pleasing.
And, you know, I'm tall, so it's the height.
And the castle's good-looking,
and Emily, of course, is not hideous.
That's probably the nicest thing you've ever said to me.
- Yeah, I think so. Yeah. - Not hideous.
Man, you're gonna regret this so much when it's on TV.
And later today.
Brickmasters, what do you think?
Dave and Emily, you chose to build tall.
But it also meant that you had a lot of real estate
to fill with those architectural details,
and you have covered it in gorgeous flowers as well.
And I think you have done a fantastic job.
- Now it's time to storm your castle. - Yes!
- Let's smash it. - Yeah.
Emily: It's always fun when we get to smash our builds.
- Yes. - We spend all this time, and we build them,
and we love them, and we're so proud of them.
But watching them get smashed is gonna be so much fun.
Will: Here we go. Goggle up.
Get ready to get wrecked.
Yeah!
Will: Oh, yeah.
Yeah!
- Oh. - Oh!
- Whoo! - Good job, guys.
Dave and Emily, what did you think about that?
I think it actually held up better than we were expecting.
This survived. Little thing in the-- right?
- Little house at the top. - Yep!
Hey!
- Didn't survive that. - The tree!
Brickmasters, what do you think?
That was super dynamic, but also celebrated your strength.
'Cause we saw that whole tower almost do a backflip from the wrecking ball.
Will: Nice job, you two. Really good.
- Thank you. Good job. - Yeah!
Nick and Stacey, you're up.
- All right. Let's go. - Stacey: Our castle is tall.
Nick: Yeah, we certainly have a shot at being the tallest build.
It is gonna be really, really close between us and Dave and Emily.
Nice and gentle. Ready?
And it would be so nice if our castle was the tallest one in the room,
especially after the last two weeks,
because we would be safe from elimination.
- ( bricks squeaking ) - Oh! Oh, no!
Oh!
- Nice and gentle. - ( bricks squeaking )
- Oh! - Oh, no!
Oh!
- Oh! - ( groaning )
- The snowflake fell. - Still tall, though.
Now we got the tallest tower for sure.
All right, Nick and Stacey, which minifig did you get?
Stacey: So we got the Snow Guardian,
and this is our Mighty Arctic Fortress.
The Snow Guardian is protecting his fortress from the lava monster
in hopes of it not melting away. Dun-dun-dun.
Nick and Stacey, I really love
how you've captured this icy feel,
and then you have the contrast of the lava monster.
I do see roughness around the edges in that character.
And from the back, it's not as polished
as I know you would have loved to have on that.
- Let's break the ice. - Let's do it.
Stacey: I feel like there were a couple details that we sacrificed
with trying to build the tallest castle,
but I do think our explosion is really gonna sell it.
Will: Man! Wow.
Yes!
That was a great smash. The color was inside.
There is nothing left on that base, though.
That smash really told your story
with that explosion of red, yellow, and orange bricks.
Jamie: I do think though, going for height
did come at the expense of strength in your model.
You lost your snowflake, and that unfortunately puts you in a vulnerable position.
Will: Nicely done. You can head back to the group.
- Good job. - Emily and Liam, you're up next.
So we got the Troll Queen.
I love it. I love it.
Once upon a time, Queen Radiance ruled the land,
but the evil wizard became jealous.
And he cursed her and transformed her into the troll queen.
Emily: So, as you can see, we have worked that curse
into the actual physical walls of this castle.
I think the real wow factor for me is those colors
swirling up that beautiful pink castle.
Jamie: I know you were rushed to get to the height,
but when you got to that height,
the top feels a little less finished
on how those roof pieces come together
and it is a little bit basic in the white columns that support it.
God save the Troll Queen.
- Whoa! - Yeah!
- Wow. - Wow.
Wow. Awesome.
I mean, Emily and Liam, what did you think about that?
Positively spiffy!
That was a super smash.
Nice job, you two.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Austin and Justin, let's take a look at your castle.
The pivot really hurt us.
But I think we have a great story, so who knows?
So we present to you "The Wizard's Duel."
Our blue wizard is defending his castle
with every bit of magic that he has.
But it's seemingly turning more the color of the other wizard
as he makes his way into the castle.
This castle has a lot of energy.
And you're telling a very classic
good versus evil story.
I really like that gorgeously built wizard hat at the top.
For me, I think you've used too many different types
of elements together to display the magic.
It does get a little bit lost
and feel a little bit more chaotic
than I would've liked.
Well, like a wizard,
I'm gonna make this thing disappear.
Hearing our feedback versus some of the other teams,
I'm starting to get a little bit worried.
All right, Austin and Justin, get ready to get wrecked.
I just want to see it get smashed.
Will: Here we go.
Oh!
Yes!
Brickmasters, what do you think?
The placement of that hat was perfect.
I love how it just kind of hovered above the model
and then came back down at the end.
- It was really spectacular. - Amy: Well done, guys.
- Will: Yeah. - Thank you.
Will: Nice job, you two.
Brendan and Greg, you're up next.
- Get 'em, boys. - Let's do it.
In past challenges, the Brickmasters
have definitely asked us to let loose a little,
have fun, bring the imagination.
And honestly, I feel like maybe we've gotten a little lucky here
that the Jester is kind of forcing us to do that.
An apocalyptic end is nigh.
Greg: Welcome to Jolly Ol' Jesters.
After my time in court,
when I was not only successful in comedy,
but also financially,
I decided to spread as much of that joy
and theatrical flair as I could until the end came.
So I built my mighty fortress in the middle of this desert.
There are no gates on this castle,
because you are welcome in to have a great laughing time.
Jolly Ol' Jesters!
Wow. Good for-- by the way!
Brendan and Greg, I have been pushing you guys
to have a little bit more playfulness in your builds,
and you have absolutely nailed that today.
Jamie: This is so much fun.
It totally matches your character of a jester.
I like how you introduce us right away
when we come to that front gate with drama masks.
It's that attention to detail,
because it can so easily be overlooked and be justified--
"We got to get height or strength or something else."
You took the time to put it in, and it really made me smile.
But can it withstand the evil wrecking ball?
Will: Oh!
Yeah! Whoo!
- Will: It really fought back. - Yes, it did.
There's so much of it left intact.
- So... careful. - That's amazing.
- Two pieces. - Brickmasters, what do you think?
I love the fact that your strength was still there,
but it wasn't the main central focus.
It was really about that story.
The jester is still smiling.
- Well done. - Thank you.
Stephen and Stephen, you're up.
- Let's go. - Go get it, guys.
Our goal is to actually break the wrecking ball.
And I think we have a chance.
Which minifig did you get?
We were lucky enough to get the troll minifigure.
Trolls traditionally live under bridges,
and that's where we set our troll right now,
is underneath a decrepit drawbridge
from an old fallen down castle.
You guys had some fighting talk here,
because you actually want to beat our wrecking ball.
You have built for strength.
I also like that you've gone for a classic castle theme.
There's a lot of suspense here. I can't wait to see it get hit.
Stephen and Stephen, I don't burn bridges,
- I break 'em. - Yes.
- Oh! - Yeah!
What do you guys-- got any plans this weekend?
- Hang on one second. - Amy: Yeah, thanks for asking--
I want to catch up with you guys in one second, but I got--
Stephen and Stephen, I don't burn bridges,
- I break 'em. - Yes.
- Will: Whoa! - Yes! Yes!
- Whoo! - Will: Wow.
It is so amazing to watch that wrecking ball
bounce off the base of our castle.
Didn't even have to look that time. All right.
- It bounced off the base of your castle. - Yes!
- Let's do it again. Let's do it again. - "Let's do it again."
Build it real quick and then we'll do it again.
- I'm so happy. - Brickmasters, what did you think?
You clearly have some great building techniques.
I guess it beat the wrecking ball, right?
Jamie: Yeah, that was shockingly strong.
- Will: Great job, you two. - Thank you.
I can't believe the wrecking ball just bounced off our base. Yes!
This week, you built the tallest and toughest Lego castles in history,
and I demolished them with a giant wrecking ball.
Many of you built tall, but one stood the tallest.
We measured them all
and the team with the tallest castle
that is now safe from elimination is...
Dave and Emily.
- Hey! - All right.
Our first team in the top two is Dave and Emily.
- Whoo! - Great job, guys.
Dave: I'm thrilled!
We're finally getting our first win here.
- Come on. - Yeah.
Now there is one spot left.
Brickmasters, based on overall aesthetics, height, and strength,
who else finished in the top two this week?
The other team I'd like to call forward
that's in the top two is...
Brendan and Greg.
We are definitely happy we did not play the Golden Brick.
Unless something crazy happens, there's a really good chance
that we could play it right to the end.
Dave and Emily, you really created a beautiful model.
It has great details.
It has strength right down to the core.
And what was it about Brendan and Greg's castle that got them here?
It was so great that you just let loose
and showed us a different side of yourselves today,
and I think you really embodied what Lego building is all about.
It's about having fun, it's about being playful with the bricks,
and it's about bringing great colorful builds to life.
Will: Two amazing castles,
both impressive in different ways,
but only one team can finish on top.
Brickmasters, who won this week's challenge?
The team that really brought it all together
and celebrated the spirit of this challenge is...
Brendan and Greg.
Good job.
I'm super excited. We just won our third challenge.
That's the most of any team so far this season.
We still have the Golden Brick.
Let's take this all the way.
Okay, Brickmasters,
you know what comes next.
All of these teams have had an incredible run,
but for one team, that ends today.
Please give me the names of the bottom two teams.
There were so many fun builds today,
and we loved watching them all get smashed.
But there were two teams that just didn't quite do enough in this challenge.
The first team I'd like to call forward in the bottom is...
Austin and Justin.
And who will be joining them in the bottom this week?
The second team I'd like to call forward is...
Nick and Stacey.
Oh, man.
Austin and Justin, where other teams have embraced
the height challenge that we've offered,
yours was actually the smallest in the room.
Amy: You decided not to build for height,
but that meant that you relied fully on story.
And unfortunately, that magical story
that you sold to us wasn't quite coming through.
Nick and Stacey, you were clearly going to be the tallest in the room,
but when it came to that final element of strength
to hold on that snowflake, it just didn't hold up.
Amy: You had so many awesome things to celebrate in your model,
but that lava monster wasn't as much of a star as I was hoping for.
Unfortunately, we do have to say goodbye to one team.
Brickmasters.
You really are two incredible teams,
so this has been an especially tough decision,
but the team that will be leaving us today is...
Austin and Justin.
You guys are such a loveable team,
and we have absolutely loved being on your journey.
You are such fun builders.
We really hope that you bring forward that energy
and share it with all the kids that you interact with.
You guys are going be superstars when you go back to hospital, right?
The kids are going to like you even more, if that's possible.
You guys have really prescribed happiness and good vibes to this show.
Unfortunately, your Lego journey has come to an end.
Please turn in your minfigs and say goodbye.
Justin: Most doctors train for, like, 12,000 hours with patients.
I probably have three or four times that amount with Lego.
( squeals )
It's one of those things that I just love.
Easy, Crash. Crash, don't break.
Justin Summer M. D., Lego Master.
I think it'd be so cool. We got to get these embroidered.
Will: Next week...
- ( cheering ) - Oh, my God!
Oh, my God! We're doing Marvel.
Will: You're building the most epic battle scenes
from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
This is hands down the best challenge ever.
Will: If you could be a Marvel superhero,
who do you think it would be?
Well, probably the one that
I look the most like-- Thor.
Yeah.
We can't keep it like this.
If that's what takes us out of here,
you can hold me responsible.
We've got a ton to cover.
- Three, two... - Just fix this.
- No, come on! - ...one!
