Will: Last week on "lego masters,"
our four remaining teams survived the most evil challenge yet...
The first thing I'm gonna do is split these teams in half.
- ( squeals ) - ...By smashing up and mashing up...
- We're winging it here. - ...Land and sea creatures
into truly creepy creations.
Look at this house of horrors around us.
Caleb and jacob's chameleobster
delivered the twins their first win of the season.
- Whoo! - Ninth time is the charm, they say.
While dave and richard's penguin
left them out in the cold.
- Cool. - Amy: You should be super proud.
You've shown off what incredible building skills
and creativity that both of you have.
Richard: To be able to link with another dad
and lose yourself in lego is a one of a kind experience.
"flip my block!"
hey, america. Will arnett here.
Today, my team and I have our work cut out for us.
We're on the set of "lego masters,"
and I gotta be honest, it is a total fixer-upper.
So let's get on in here and meet the builders
who are gonna help me
flip my block!
Hey, america! Who's ready to "flip my block"?
Nothing is off-limits.
You're gonna flip, as teams turn their city blocks...
- Will: He forgot a piece! - ...Into motion-filled, extreme dream destinations.
Extreme high fives!
Will mark and steven activate their extremely useful golden brick?
- Um... - Will michelle and natalie
wow the brickmasters extremely yet again?
- What's the plan? - We don't know.
Sleeves aren't optional.
They're flat-out illegal.
- Whoo! - Wow!
Stop the clock. Stop the clock.
These guys are in terrible shape.
- That clock is ticking fast. - Yeah.
It's time to flip my block!
Man on pa: We are rolling, everybody.
- Oh, my gosh. - Oh!
- What is this? - What in the world?
- "flip my block." - oh!
We're coming into this challenge
after our first win of the season.
Wow.
We're ready for whatever happens.
Roll up those sleeves, cut 'em off, light 'em on fire.
Get rid of 'em. 'cause we got no room for sleeves today.
We got work to do.
- Yeah. - Whoa.
- Okay. - Yeah.
- Wow. - Whoo!
Oh, man.
I hate sleeves!
We're doing a home makeover show today,
and that means that we've gotta take it to the extreme.
Extreme high fives!
Man! Kind of felt like regular high fives, but we'll work on it.
- Let's go! - All right.
So, behind me we have the lamest neighborhood ever.
Your challenge is to take one of those mundane houses
and flip it into the wildest address in the country.
People always say, "if these walls could talk," right?
Well, these walls can,
or they can dance,
or wave, or raise the roof if you want them to.
Nothing is off-limits.
Because we're diy-ers, I'm just like... ( vocalizing )
like, I feel like I'm at home.
This is our challenge. Maybe this was made for us.
We want you to transform these homes from drab to fab.
We-- that's good, right? Good, right? Yeah!
We are looking for you to have wild, crazy,
and colorful renovation ideas.
And in terms of storytelling, we want you to show us
who or what lives in their dream home.
Throughout this competition, we have been asking you guys
to use movement in your models.
But we're asking you now to make movement like you've never done before.
This is gonna really push the limits of your technical abilities,
but really make your properties stand out.
And, of course, you also have an existing house
that you need to use all those bricks in your creation,
so we can't wait to see how you amp it up and make it amazing.
All right, go nuts with that property, bros.
You have 11 hours to flip my block
and build your dream home.
Now, get your brick on!
- Let's go! - Blue? Blue?
- Run, run, run, run, run. - Okay.
- Here we go. - All right.
Oops. I just knocked over our fence.
Our neighbors are gonna hate us.
- I'll grab the power functions. - Okay, I got this, I got this.
Oh, this is gonna be a very fun challenge for me
because power functions and making things move,
that's what I like to do.
I'm gonna go all out. I'm gonna have fun with this.
Okay. Interesting.
We have to do a home reno.
Michelle and natalie over there,
they restore stuff for a living.
Houses, furniture-- this should be right up their alley.
What are we thinking, for our house to look like or what kind of theme?
All right, so, brickmasters, I'd love for you
to be a part of my new home makeover show with extreme energy.
( rock music playing )
"flip my block!"
tell all the "flip my block" heads at home
what's going on in this challenge.
This is really gonna push the limits of their technical abilities.
When we're talking about movement,
we want to see the whole property come to life
in ways that we've never seen before.
( echoing ) huh!
I'm thinking, like, what can we do for movement?
And, of course, they also have to use all of the bricks
that are given in the original house,
so that's gonna be a clever challenge for them to solve.
This is the demo. This is the fun part where you break everything
and throw it all in a big dumpster.
But not us. We're gonna reuse it.
So, which teams are positioned well for this challenge?
Michelle and natalie are all about diy,
so I'm hoping they can bring some of that experience
and some brilliant renovation ideas into their builds.
( muttering )
- caleb and jacob won last week's challenge. - Yeah.
That was an epic win.
Now they're coming in here with a lot of confidence,
so I'm excited to see what big idea caleb and jacob come up with.
I hope it's extreme.
We should make it chaotic, but beautifully chaotic.
- Let's go take a look. - All right.
You're thinking a lot about the future right there,
but remember the house has to pull the whole thing together with the functions.
These ghosts will be those--
those ones we were talking about.
What if we did a circus theme,
like a big circus tent house?
- Tent? - Mm-hmm.
All right, I'm about to do a check-in with michelle and natalie.
How are you guys doing on your "flip my block"?
- We're good. - Yeah.
- We finally have a plan. - What's the plan?
- We're gonna make a circus house. - Under the big top.
We will have our spinning top with our ringmaster,
a giant top hat, a clown car, peanut trees,
big buckets of popcorn, and a popcorn machine.
- Awesome. You're completely tearing this apart. - Both: Yes.
In the biz, we call this a demo.
Demolition.
I see you found your sleeves again.
- I know. - Yeah!
- What do you think? - I like them both ways.
- Yeah. - Oh, okay. Well, I mean,
I can rip it off again, if that's what you're--
if that--
got it.
Do you think I wish I had worked out?
Yes, I do. I definitely do.
All right, you have to have movement in this circus tent.
- Yes. - What's the plan?
We're gonna try some stuff. We don't know--
that means we don't really have a clear idea.
That means we're gonna-- we're gonna see if we can make these, like, you know,
- spotlights behind it moving. - Uh-huh.
Michelle: The hardest part about this challenge, I think,
is going to be trying to get the motion to work.
It'd be really cool if our top could spin,
but how are we gonna do that?
- Better pick up our pieces. - Okay, I'm going to get some actual pieces.
- I was thinking some sort of landing pad. - Yeah, that's a good idea.
- What are you making? - I'm gonna make the house go up and down.
- Hey, mark and steven. - The big question jamie and I have
is how are you letting your imagination really run wild in this challenge?
We're gonna do a haunted house
with a bunch of monsters in there.
Mark: Haunted house, skeletons.
A ghost in the windows, lots of fun.
But then we thought, you know, that's not enough.
It's gonna be rock 'n' roll monsters.
It's gonna be heavy metal monsters.
I just wonder, can you even push the house further?
I think we can pull that off.
You guys have some ambition on this. I love it.
Yeah, even though we have that golden brick,
we want to really do well on this challenge.
Well, we're gonna treat this challenge like it's our last challenge to win,
so we want to feel great about his build.
Yeah, I think we can have the house pulsating, which would be really--
- let me get the arm in the area here. - Do what you gotta do.
( rock music playing )
as the host of america's favorite lego-centric home makeover show,
I've got one speed-- extreme.
What can you tell the "flip my block" heads
at home about our lego motors?
Well, most people, when they think of motors,
they think of simple spinning,
where it just rotates like that.
But with a little bit of a twist,
you can make those come to life in a much more interesting way.
You can see here, we have a beam that goes
side to side like a windshield wiper,
or it goes up and down to make something like flapping wings.
Wow, that is extreme. Speaking of movement, we have to move on.
Extreme cut to the next segment!
- Just attach it. - I need to test how fast this is gonna spin.
Some of the first lego builds that I've built for myself
when I was, like, 12, were actually technic sets,
and then I would add the motors to them.
It could also be a servo motor.
And now all that knowledge is just expressing itself.
- Okay, go. - ( whirring )
I don't want it to look-- be just all blue,
and then it goes up to white here.
Yeah, I think we'd have to bring some red down into it.
I'm gonna check in with caleb and jacob now
and see what kind of extreme build they're doing.
Caleb, jacob, what's going on, guys?
- Hey, hey! - Some extreme building is what's going on.
I love your shirt.
- Yeah. - Oh.
The sleeves, we just have to roll them up a little.
- Yeah, ours are-- - oh, they don't come off.
- No. - Yeah, ours are pretty lame.
All right, you guys are about to flip your block.
What are you doing? You've already taken down the original house.
Oh, yeah. We are embracing the destruction,
and we are replacing that house with hopefully something far more--
what's that word we keep on using?
- Extreme? - Extreme!
- ( echoing ) extreme! - Whoo! That's it.
Growing up in wisconsin, cold, snow, ice,
are all concepts very close and near and dear to our hearts.
So of course we gotta bring some of that into our building.
Jacob: So we're gonna build a ski resort,
and we'll include motion in there,
with a house moving around,
garage door opening and closing.
If you have the time to do it, just max out on the movement, you know?
Like, everything extreme, you know?
- Extreme ski lift. - That's pretty good.
You guys won the challenge last week,
( echoing ) so you're totally on top of the mountain.
- Yes. - How are you gonna stay on top?
By crushing your opponents?
Yeah, that. For sure!
- And also making a nice build? - Yeah.
That, I suppose, is important, too.
By the way, if you want to put these on and then rip them off,
you just put your arms in-- yeah, yeah, yeah-- and then we'll cut away.
Yeah, that's good enough. Put the other one on, sure.
- There you go, caleb. - I'm feeling it.
And you just go, "extreme ski house!"
extreme ski house!
- Whoo! Yeah! - Wow!
All right, guys.
I'm gonna go snap my sleeves back on,
- just so you know. - I'm so sorry.
Nah, it's okay.
Now we have to make a functional ski lift.
- How's that? - Yeah, that'll be great.
All right, let me work on that window.
You need to make this as high as this.
We cannot waste any more time because we're getting behind, I know it.
Amy and jamie, they want lots of character, they want lots of life.
So, we have a huge amount of things planned
for the motion aspects of this build.
And motion is obviously gonna take a long time.
Now we got to get these critical things built quickly.
Finish the building. Finish the building right now.
Work on that, for sure.
I am struggling with this movement.
I'm trying to get our motor functions to work,
and I'm having an issue.
It's going back and forth,
but it's not going from one position to another.
( michelle groans )
there's an app. There's coding involved.
We've gotta make sure we get this motion right.
You definitely need fanfare light
that kind of swirls around and, you know,
"hey, a big event's happening here." a circus.
So we've got to figure out a solution.
Do you want to take a brain break from it?
I am very confused...
I feel like I'm just wasting time on it.
It's not wanting to work.
...And I am very nervous.
I'm will arnett, and we're back here on the set of "lego masters,"
where four teams of builders are transforming their super boring homes
into eye-popping dream houses where nothing is off-limits.
How was that? Was it home-makeover-y enough?
- Did I do a good job at explaining what's going on? - I bought it.
- Okay, good. - Oh, yeah.
So, brickmasters, what is going on in this challenge?
Well, in this challenge, we want our teams to turn
these drab homes from ordinary into extraordinary.
We're looking for movement, we're looking for color,
and we're looking for totally wild renovation ideas.
- All right, let's go take a look. - All right.
- What is it catching? - It caught on this, mark. You need more of these.
- More of these? - It caught right on there.
That's our problem. It just peels it off.
Ooh! Okay. It's doing a full circle.
It's gonna take an eye out there.
- I got this crank area. - Awesome.
- Hey, zack and wayne. - Hello, zack and wayne.
- Hey, how you doing? - This is mesmerizing.
- Amy: Yeah. - Thank you.
One thing we really asked you guys to bring is motion.
So how are you doing that? You've already got started.
Zack: My brother and I are building a flying house in the shape of a pig.
Wayne: It's got, like, 10 wings. Our house flies.
So, that's the best part of it right there.
If you don't like where you're living,
you can just fly it out somewhere else.
The color that we got of the house was purplish pink, right?
So, we thought, "oh, why not a pig?"
a pig is usually a good sign, right?
Because it represents great wealth,
so it kind of already tells me,
okay, whoever commissioned this
is really rich and he really likes pigs.
So, you know, it's like, okay, there's our story right there.
I think right away I love the imagination.
I am thinking, "who lives there?"
so, make sure you're thinking about that
and incorporating it into not only the movement,
but also the aesthetics as you go along.
- Absolutely. - Good luck. Thanks.
I'm thinking, like, a magician.
- Or an inventor. Okay. - Maybe a sky captain.
- Mark and steven. - Will, what's up, bro?
So, you guys totally demo'd your house.
Yeah, flattened it.
Now you're building a what?
We are building a haunted mansion.
That is a great idea. I'm so happy that--
look at this. I like the movement on that.
That's gonna be one of the octopus tentacles coming out.
That's so rad. You want to win this. It'd be so nice to go in--
- oh. Oh, oh. - Why did that stop?
- Uh-oh. - Grinding the teeth. Jam up.
- We got to work out some bugs. - Maybe it's haunted.
Extreme haunting!
- I don't know what that means, but I get it. - Great job, guys.
All right, so I just came from mark and steven,
checking on their extreme build, and it's a disaster.
These guys are in terrible shape.
I really think that this might be their week to go extremely home.
I got the golden brick.
Great job, guys.
Still getting peeled off.
Okay, come on. That is just-- wow.
- Right? - ( beeping )
( beeping )
stop the clock!
- ( beeping horn ) - what in the--
stop the clock! Stop the clock!
Stop the clock, stop the clock, stop the clock!
Oh, no.
Stop the clock!
Ooh!
I come bearing twists!
Oh, my gosh. There's four little crates and four teams.
But what's gonna be in this crate?
Like, it could literally be anything.
All right, guys, in order to make your builds even more extreme,
each team will come up here and grab a box
filled with one totally unique lego element inside.
Npu is a lego acronym for nice parts usage.
Whatever's inside your box, no matter how strange it is,
has to be incorporated into your builds.
You got seven hours left to flip your block.
When I say go,
run over here and take a box.
Let's start the clock back up...
Now. Go!
Yeah. Get it, get it, get it.
Excuse me, excuse me. What in the world is this?
Let's look.
- Snakes? - Oh, god.
Snakes. What?
This sucks so bad.
- Cups? - Ooh.
You've done this before.
This is the exact thing I used.
Okay, so it kind of looks like clown hair.
- We could make cotton candy. - Ooh.
- Oh. - Wow.
This is gonna be tricky.
This is the first time I've used snowboards for anything.
- What did you guys get? - We got coffee cups.
- Coffee cups? - Yellow coffee cups.
Seven has used this very part years ago.
Steven: I had to use a coffee cup as creatively as possible.
It was pink, not yellow.
He's the most experienced coffee cup builder ever.
So, uh--
yeah, it's a weird title to have,
but it's 100% true.
We're gonna have to have them all over the place.
- Where are we going to-- - there's a ton.
Coffee cups?
Yellow coffee cups is probably the most versatile piece there.
Personally, I wish we got those snowboards.
They would make great shingles on our roof.
A little jealous.
- What'd you guys get? - Both: Snakes.
- Oh. - This is so hard.
Oh, my gosh. I have no idea what to do with all these snakes.
And they can't be snakes. I can't just make a snake pit.
Jacob: You chose the worst one, man.
Snakes? Oh, man. This is gonna be really tough.
Maybe that's the secret. Maybe this needs to be,
like, a pool of lava or something.
Jacob: So, we're about a few hours into this build,
and we're building a nice ski resort,
and we'll include motion in there with a working ski lift.
But will presents us with a twist.
Jacob and I have been given red snakes for our npu,
nice parts usage, that we need to incorporate into our build.
That means we can't use these snakes as snakes in our build.
They need to become something completely different.
- This is-- - the whole thing is snakes.
I hope some idea comes to light
because I have no idea what to do with these things.
We're down to four great teams of builders,
and they're taking their properties
into four completely different directions.
How do you think it's going so far?
Jamie: Zack and wayne, they're actually taking
their whole house to the sky and letting it fly.
- It's really dynamic. - Will: Caleb and jacob,
they're building this incredible house with a ski hill.
And they still have a lot to put together.
It's such a fun idea, but a lot to do in the time.
- Will: Mark and steven? - Jamie: Yes.
How do you like the look of their house?
They're making a spooky haunted house,
but not any spooky haunted house.
They're having movement everywhere.
Even the roof is opening.
Yeah, looks good.
- Hello. - Hey, guys.
Hello, caleb and jacob. You know what we are excited about?
That you got a box of goodies.
Jacob threw out the idea that maybe
we could somehow rope these together
to get, like, a roof texture.
- Ah. - So, like, we're trying to think outside the box,
'cause just connecting this amount of pieces,
we're looking at an hour for both of us.
- There are a lot of snakes there. - Yeah.
- A few. - I think this is your opportunity
to make your mark on npu usage around the world
where people will be shocked.
"I didn't know that snakes could do that." right?
- Yes. - And you are planning to give us a building as well.
- Yes, eventually. - Okay.
But we just needed that foundation,
and the foundation is looking pretty solid right now.
( clattering )
if only it swapped over and pushed that one up.
So it's going like this-- bam, bam, bam, bam, bam.
Mark: We're still building a haunted house,
but we have a huge variety of things
we have planned for the motion.
You need to finish the fence.
Yep, fence, hang on. I got a few things.
Plant monster, fence, and make some more ghosts just for the top, so--
we're getting a little stressed, not gonna lie.
It's okay. We need to get this to work,
otherwise the house is really gonna be boring.
Okay, this one's gonna be, like, right here.
- That's his butt? - Head.
All right, I'm about to check in with michelle and natalie.
This is a diy team that came here to compete.
Let's check in. They love me.
- Hi, guys. - Hey.
- How's it going? - Really good.
What was your npu? What did you guys get?
- We got these pink clown hair. - But now it is--
- cotton candy bushes. - They're cotton candy bushes.
- Did you use all of them? - We did.
You need, like, a carnival barker, right? Bark me in. Go.
"welcome to the big top!" is that the big top voice?
- That's pretty good, yeah. - Okay.
It sounds like me.
I mean, it sounds like you're making a joke about the way I talk.
Here's what I would do. I'm gonna try to sell your build.
"welcome to the extreme big top!"
you guys like extreme.
This is an extreme episode. It's extreme!
- Mm. Yeah? - Yes.
( exhales ) I'm so exhausted playing this character.
- Can you tell? - It's a lot of energy.
- I'm impressed.
Yeah, I think I'm gonna sleep really well after this.
All right, give it a whirl.
Oh, my god, zack, what have you done?
There's a start-- the snakes.
Two down, 998 to go.
- Hello, hello. - Hey, mark and steven.
I see a neat mechanism on the inside for the roof.
- Amy: Good. - Yes, we're trying to get both panels
to open evenly, almost like a book, on the top of the roof
so that you get some action there.
Right now, one's moving great,
and so that's halfway a success at this point.
We want it to be a full success, but time is running out.
Just the roof moving would be good,
but it wouldn't be the full idea that we wanted.
Are you scaling back now?
Possibly, yeah.
We won't be able to have dozens of characters on this thing.
We actually want to try and listen to your advice
of having the house have some life and character,
not just the characters on the house,
so we're trying to incorporate that.
I feel the pressure of the time, so...
- Exactly. Oh, yeah. - It's there. The clock is ticking.
Morale is a little low, not gonna lie.
Mark: We're starting to get a little stressed.
- Things are taking longer than we expected. - Very long.
We just gotta get it all done.
We'll see how all this plays out,
but I'm just really glad we have the golden brick.
We cannot waste any more time because--
- we are taking so long. - A door right there. I know.
Okay, what am I doing now?
I am gonna try and finish this building 'cause this is not complete
and we have three and a half hours left.
This challenge, "flip my block," has been really stressful.
And now we have to use npu, which is nice parts usage.
Why don't you work on some ghosts?
Because that would be really essential.
Pretty soon, we gotta start testing this one.
Okay.
Okay, so right behind me,
zack and wayne are building away.
They have no idea that we're here
checking in on their build.
This is an incredible insight into how these builders build.
They can't see me, they can't hear me.
That's how reality television works.
Watch the surprise.
- Zack and wayne! - Whoa!
- Terrible acting. - We didn't see you guys there.
Guys, are you really hoping that this build is gonna bring home the bacon?
- Oh, yeah. - Did you want to see what it looks like right now?
I do want to see what it looks like right now.
Okay.
Wow.
The motor that is moving this thing,
do you have one or do you have two?
- One motor. - So, only one motor on the bottom.
And then two for the wings,
and then we're gonna be getting the propellers going with a few.
When you guys sell this to the judges,
are you gonna ham it up?
Oh, you have no idea.
All right, I'll leave you guys to it. This thing is awesome.
- Thank you so much. - Thank you.
This is the 10th challenge. We can't be coasting now this far along the way.
We really want to show off our ability to build something that's out of this world.
He says bring home the bacon. Let's take it home.
So, the brickmasters seemed to like our general idea,
but they did want to make sure that there was a lot of focus on the house itself,
so we had to do some restructuring.
We're trashing some ideas that we would've liked,
but, uh, this is getting intense.
You know, the competition's really ramping up,
so it's just a lot of stuff to do.
All right, we'll try that again.
Nothing works.
In these last two hours, we're struggling.
Especially with the power functions of our ski slope.
I think it's gonna be best we don't run it 'cause it'll just break.
I'm a little disappointed that we haven't been able to do something more epic.
This roof isn't even gonna get done.
It's not done?
We won't be able to power it.
Here, I'll make the door.
Snake bin is filled.
But there's still a lot of snakes left.
Last time I checked with you guys,
you were building this really cool house with a ski lift.
- That was it. - Mm-hmm.
- Now... - We've got a volcano.
- You have a volcano. - So, this volcano is actually going to explode.
The side's gonna fall off, and there's gonna be--
oh, we gotta work on that, but-- lava snakes.
By the way, a volcano is pretty scary as it is,
but then if it's emitting snakes...
- I would not build my house there. - No.
How are you guys feeling about your chances this week?
- Morale is low. - What's going on with the morale?
We've struggled with the technical side of this a lot.
A lot of time poured into that,
and there's been a lot of failures along the way, unfortunately.
As it is right now, it's the worst build in the room
and it's gonna kind of sink into the background.
Nobody's ever called their build
the worst build in the room before
in the history of "lego masters."
you might be being a little harsh on yourself.
Will, help us out here.
Okay, okay. Look, it is what it is.
It's okay to be hard on yourself in order to kind of motivate,
but you can't change anything about how you got here.
That's already past.
All you got is this moment right now
and what's in front of you.
So what can you do to change what's in front of you?
You guys, it's within your power to turn this thing around.
Let's do it. Let's do this thing.
- Let's do this. - Come on. Come on.
Let's make this thing extreme.
Extreme!
- For jacob. - For jacob!
For jacob. Oh, he's still with us.
Sorry, I don't know why I was--
- I'm still here last I checked. - I know. You're still--
- that was-- - the end is in sight.
It would be so rough to go home now.
We definitely can't give up.
If we have to go down this challenge,
we're gonna go down fighting.
- One hour left! - ( gasping )
- oh, boy. - Hurry up, hurry up.
Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up!
The clock is ticking.
The renovations are nowhere close to complete.
I don't think they're gonna make it.
- They'll probably make it. - Whew.
Just, you know, trying to keep things extreme.
You get it.
When your build is done, wheel it on over.
Oh, no. All these things are not working here.
- Put more minifigs over here, wayne. - Yeah, yeah.
- Oh, yeah. We're totally killing it. - That's awesome.
I need you to replace some of the eyes of those skeletons floating around.
- Okay. With cups? Okay. - Yes.
- It's looking really good, you guys. - I know.
- Can you move it carefully? - Yeah, it's pretty sturdy.
- Okay. - Yep, should be okay,
but we just gotta get all this stuff down.
- Will: Come on, you gotta start moving your builds! - We can start rolling.
- Oh, yeah, we got to move it. - Into the gallery.
Let's take our sweet time, make sure none of the figs fall over.
- Slow and steady. Slow and steady. - Slow and steady.
It's shaking like crazy.
Mark: Steven and I are being very careful as we move it
from the build area to the gallery
because if you go over a bump,
it could be the worst thing ever.
So we are taking our time, moving it carefully
but confidently into the gallery.
Ooh, careful. One of the wheels is bumping.
Lift your end up off the ground.
- ( clattering ) - will: Uh-oh.
Ooh, careful. One of the wheels is bumping.
Lift your end up off the ground.
Oh.
Oh, no. Did something just break?
I heard something fall.
- Is he good? - Okay, you guys are good.
- Relatively. - I'm looking for randos.
Go nice and slow.
Mark: Part of the roof broke right off.
Steven: It did, it did.
Thankfully, it's all okay. Everything is fine.
Thankfully.
- Will: One minute left! - Oh, my god.
Oh, caleb's on the run!
- This is drama. - Come on, caleb!
- He's got this! Come on! - Wait! He forgot a piece!
- ( laughing ) - five, four, three,
- two, one. - Ahh!
Time's up! Bricks down!
Man! Did you guys feel that drama? That was insane.
All right, let's take a look
at the hottest block in the nation.
All right, builders, as a reminder,
the brickmasters will be looking at how you used motion
to bring your house alive,
as well as how you incorporated the npus.
But before we leisurely stroll through your neighborhood,
mark and steven, are you gonna cash in the golden brick today?
Because if you don't use it
and end up in the bottom two, you could be eliminated.
This whole challenge has been really stressful.
We've been really racing that clock.
It's been hard.
I like our build,
but I am not sure where we're at.
It's really unsettling to not have that kind of confidence.
- Um... - We're not that cocky. I think we're going to--
no, that would be the ultimate baller move, to not turn it in,
but that is exactly what we're gonna do.
All right, bring it on up.
It was tough, it was stressful,
but we're giving back that brick
because you never know what's gonna happen,
and I do not at all want to go anywhere near that bottom two.
I think you made the right call.
Congratulations on keeping it as long as you could.
I know that you've been tempted to activate it,
but you managed to avoid the bottom two and hold tight.
Very impressive.
And you-- you've had a wild ride.
Oh, man. We got a lot of catching up to do.
Okay, put you right here.
Now, it is time to take a walk down lego lane.
Zack and wayne, you're up.
All right, guys, go ahead and turn your build on.
- All righty. - That's really cool.
Will: Tell us about what is going on here.
Wayne: We built a flying pig home.
This is the mobile mansion of gaspar de la pork,
a wealthy businessman.
Zack: Then we said, you know, let's give it a cool motion.
Let's put some wings on it.
Not just two pairs of wings. Ten.
Wayne: The pig usually symbolizes abundance and excess,
so, you know, it's like, boom.
His flying pig house can take you anywhere you want to go.
Wow. This is quite a home makeover.
Amy: Yeah, I don't think when we set this challenge
we ever imagined that someone would make a flying pig house.
Nice parts usage-- I think your snowboards
work really well in the feathers.
And I love the extra details, like the people that have fallen off the wings.
- Incredible build. - Thank you.
I mean, I am just blown away
by how much movement you have here.
This is a massive model to be rotating like that.
But you chose a fairly pixilated expression for the rest of your model,
so that pixilation makes it a bit more blocky.
Yeah, just an eyeful to look at. Really cool.
Yeah, it really hogs a lot of attention.
Thank you, thank you.
Wayne: This is one of the most exciting things
we've ever made right there. It's a flying pig.
We have a lot more to show, so hopefully we can go further
in this competition and show off what we got.
Mark and steven, why don't you meet us by the front lawn
so we can talk about your build?
We built a haunted house.
Ever since dracula moved to town,
the neighborhood has gone to h-e double garlic sticks.
His heavy metal monster mansion
has got all the neighbors talking,
but what would you expect
with a pipe organ chimney on the outside
and a non-stop ghost disco party on the inside?
Sure, the plant monster makes a great pen pal,
but there's no way to sugarcoat it,
as a neighbor, dracula sucks.
What a fun and spooky renovation you guys have made.
You've also given us some brand-new residents,
which really capture the movement in a great way.
But I do think you could have played a little bit more
with the house to get a bit more colorful details.
But, overall, I think a really great renovation.
I love your nice parts usage of the mug.
The fact that you didn't just use it for the fence,
but also as the teeth for the monster on the side there.
It is really great to see a whole house come to life.
Will: Great job, you guys.
I feel a lot better
than I did a couple of hours ago.
It was the right thing to do, giving back that brick.
All we want to do is make a good mock,
and that's what we've done.
And I think we actually are in pretty good shape.
Yep.
Michelle and natalie, you're up.
I'm nervous. Everybody else's looks so good.
Some of them have some crazy awesome movement.
All right, so, michelle, natalie,
let's see some motion. Turn it on.
Let's see...
Why the top hat's not going.
- It's going a little too fast. - Ooh, it is, yeah.
It was a challenge for us throughout this whole build
to get this right.
Let's see.
- Okay. - Let's see here.
Michelle: We just need this to work
or we're gonna end up in the bottom two.
All right, let's see some motion. Turn it on.
That's not going.
- It's going a little too fast. - Ooh, it is, yeah.
- Oops. - Let's see.
- Okay. - Let's see here.
- There we go. - There she is.
- There we go. - And we're in business.
Michelle, natalie, tell us what's going on here.
We call this under the big top.
Bob the clown is throwing the biggest block party
of the year under the big top,
and the whole neighborhood is invited.
Bob: Welcome to the big top! Come one, come all!
We've got all the peanuts, popcorn,
and cotton candy you can eat.
Follow the spinning lights to the big top house,
grab a ticket, and clown around all night long.
Step right up to a world of wonder!
It's the greatest party on earth!
I love that you've turned a drab house
into an entire circus.
The movement really brings it to life
and makes me a little bit mesmerized.
You've also done a great job with parts usage
with your little cotton candy trees dotted around.
And it's things like those pops of pink that I really love
and wish you would just have done
a little bit more of.
I have to say, this model just makes me happy.
Your popcorn machine is really great.
I love your clown car.
I love that you're adding a little bit of humor.
And I like that you took a risk.
And when it comes to your motion,
you're very good at the round circular motion.
But I'd love to challenge you guys,
even if it's circular, but you just change it
so it's going in another direction,
it just adds that little extra something.
But I think it really looks fun.
- Thank you. - What a great build.
The judges liked it? I mean, it's exciting,
and also, like, we're hoping that we did enough.
Caleb and jacob, you're up.
Basically, two hours, we turned this thing around.
No matter what happens here, we did make a build that I think we can be proud of.
So, caleb, jacob, tell us what's going on
with your house.
Welcome to 978 frostburn drive,
a skier's paradise that just so happens
to be built on the side of a volcano.
But don't worry about that.
Ignore the tremors and the serpent-like lava.
Instead, focus on the spinning skis, the working ski lift,
and good old mr. Smith as he plows the sidewalk.
Yeah, pay attention to him and not the giant volcano
wreaking havoc on everything around it.
Grab a hot cup of java and ignore the lava
at 978 frostburn drive.
So, brickmasters, what do you think?
Jamie: Why the resort is in a volcano is still absurd,
but I love that you were that ambitious.
And that ambition also goes to your ski lift.
They're notoriously difficult to do.
I wish there was a way that you could've attached a minifigure or something
just to show it as a ski lift a bit more.
Amy: You guys were not happy to get snakes
for the nice parts usage, but actually you changed
the whole design of your model to incorporate snakes,
and it has a real wow factor.
The lava is such a great story
about it trailing down the snow.
And you also have them in the roofs of the house.
I think I would've loved to see
a little bit more detail in your buildings.
A few more details in there would've been great for me.
Caleb, jacob, great job, you guys.
Thank you, thank you.
I definitely think jacob and I
have a pretty high chance of going home today.
All right, builders,
today you rolled up your sleeves
and transformed a basic, boring block
into the wildest zip code in the country.
Brickmasters, you have four tricked-out homes to choose from.
Which team had the best build today?
We were so excited to see all of you excel in this challenge.
But there was one team that had not only the motion,
but also had the aesthetics in a beautiful balance.
So our winning team is...
Mark and steven. Congratulations.
Mark: What an unexpected twist
on the build that we were just struggling with for quite a while.
- We won. That's insane. - Yeah.
This is where it gets interesting.
Normally, we have the bottom two teams step forward.
But with just three teams in contention for the bottom build--
caleb and jacob, michelle and natalie, zack and wayne--
I need you all to step forward.
Builders, we saw four incredible builds in this challenge.
But we are at the stage in the competition
where we really are digging into the smallest details.
Caleb and jacob, you had some great storytelling,
but unfortunately, your movement didn't
have as much of a wow effect as we were hoping.
Zack and wayne, mind blown with your engineering
and how you were able to bring that to life.
Unfortunately, it wasn't quite met
with the construction of your house.
That came across as a bit too blocky.
Michelle and natalie, you had such a colorful and aesthetic build,
with so many fun and playful details.
But we would've loved to see you push yourselves
a little bit further on the movement
to give us something beyond turning.
Okay, brickmasters, I hate having to ask the question,
"who's going home this week?",
because I already know the answer.
Nobody.
Nobody is going home.
It was a close call,
but your builds were all too good.
You are all safe.
Michelle: Nobody's going home this week, so that's exciting.
Next week, we just have to bring it again.
Oh, my gosh, it was so nice of will right there
to give us all the opportunity to show off our skills one more time.
( exhales )
will: You'll all be here next week
competing for a spot in the finale.
Three teams will move on to compete for $100,000
and the title of lego masters.
We'll find out who those three teams are next week.
Until then, go on and hit the bricks.
- Whoo! - Whew!
Going into the next week, we need to really just keep the pressure on.
- We managed to get a surprise win today. - That's a good feeling.
We can go in really confident that we'll be able
to do a great job with whatever's up ahead.
Wayne: We're kind of getting close to the end right now.
It's starting to get more interesting.
The level is so close right there, anyone could be the top.
Will: Next week, with only two episodes left...
All rise!
...The countdown to the grand finale begins.
Build a massive castle on the edge of a cliff.
Is this even possible?
The build that stretches out the farthest
will automatically move on to the finals.
- You're measuring it? - Are we trying to build the farthest?
- You're going further? - I'm gonna cry if it falls.
- You're the castle bros. - This has been said.
- This is so exciting. - Put that title on the line.
- Ooh. - What?
It's the second to last episode
and the fight has just begun!
