1
00:00:01,877 --> 00:00:02,918
- Previously on
"food stars"...
2
00:00:03,004 --> 00:00:05,337
- What's up, seattle?
3
00:00:05,423 --> 00:00:08,132
- All of you will be running
a pop-up coffee shop.
4
00:00:08,250 --> 00:00:10,134
I want to test
your market awareness
5
00:00:10,219 --> 00:00:11,218
And customer service.
6
00:00:11,303 --> 00:00:13,303
You didn't step up and lead
7
00:00:13,347 --> 00:00:15,556
When your team needed it
the most,
8
00:00:15,641 --> 00:00:16,849
And for those reasons,
9
00:00:16,934 --> 00:00:19,977
I will not be investing
in megan.
10
00:00:20,021 --> 00:00:21,478
We're done.
11
00:00:22,273 --> 00:00:25,149
Your next task is
selling kitchen products
12
00:00:25,192 --> 00:00:26,984
On live television.
13
00:00:27,028 --> 00:00:29,486
- There's no rewinds
when you're live.
14
00:00:29,613 --> 00:00:31,697
- This challenge is about
sales skills,
15
00:00:31,782 --> 00:00:33,073
Connecting with the audience
16
00:00:33,117 --> 00:00:35,075
While showcasing product.
- Ow!
17
00:00:35,161 --> 00:00:36,285
- Yeah, I can't hear him.
- [bleep]!
18
00:00:36,370 --> 00:00:38,495
- This is
a whole nother level.
19
00:00:38,539 --> 00:00:40,831
- It was the most stressful
20 minutes of my life.
20
00:00:40,916 --> 00:00:43,876
- Hold on,
'cause I'm not done yet.
21
00:00:43,961 --> 00:00:46,879
[dramatic beats]
22
00:00:46,964 --> 00:00:50,049
[light music]
23
00:00:50,134 --> 00:00:52,217
9:00 a.M., hollywood,
los angeles.
24
00:00:52,261 --> 00:00:53,886
- Guys, there's only six
of us left.
25
00:00:53,971 --> 00:00:54,887
This is so crazy.
26
00:00:54,972 --> 00:00:56,430
- My remaining entrepreneurs
27
00:00:56,474 --> 00:00:59,183
Have only three challenges
left to win my investment.
28
00:00:59,226 --> 00:01:01,560
I've invited
the top six contestants
29
00:01:01,645 --> 00:01:02,853
To meet me here
30
00:01:02,897 --> 00:01:05,230
At a satellite studio for qvc.
31
00:01:05,316 --> 00:01:06,982
- I used to be excited
for the unknown.
32
00:01:07,068 --> 00:01:08,734
Now I'm kind of scared for--
- I know.
33
00:01:08,819 --> 00:01:10,110
Oh, my god.
34
00:01:10,196 --> 00:01:11,820
- Today they're gonna step
35
00:01:11,864 --> 00:01:15,949
Into the fast-paced world
of live tv.
36
00:01:15,993 --> 00:01:17,117
I'm looking
for a business partner
37
00:01:17,244 --> 00:01:20,454
Who's comfortable
being uncomfortable,
38
00:01:20,498 --> 00:01:23,624
So today I want to see how
they cope under pressure
39
00:01:23,667 --> 00:01:26,919
Out of their depth
and when the clock's ticking.
40
00:01:26,962 --> 00:01:28,462
- Three, two, one.
41
00:01:28,547 --> 00:01:31,715
- But first, they need to see
how the professionals do it
42
00:01:31,801 --> 00:01:33,300
In broadcast rehearsals.
43
00:01:33,344 --> 00:01:35,844
- Welcome back into qvc.
My name's alberti.
44
00:01:35,930 --> 00:01:38,013
We've got an awesome show
for you today.
45
00:01:38,099 --> 00:01:39,056
We're gonna start, though,
46
00:01:39,100 --> 00:01:40,849
With one of the most used items
47
00:01:40,935 --> 00:01:41,934
In your kitchen,
48
00:01:41,977 --> 00:01:43,560
And that is an everyday pan.
49
00:01:45,064 --> 00:01:46,188
What's really awesome
50
00:01:46,273 --> 00:01:48,315
Is that I've got tons
of capacity in here,
51
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:50,192
And that cook-and-look lid
allows me
52
00:01:50,236 --> 00:01:52,194
To see everything
that's going on.
53
00:01:52,279 --> 00:01:53,946
I'm hungry.
I'm gonna take a bite
54
00:01:54,031 --> 00:01:55,155
Out of this...
- Five seconds.
55
00:01:55,199 --> 00:01:56,740
- And then we've got more
comin' up
56
00:01:56,826 --> 00:01:57,908
Right after this.
- Cut.
57
00:01:57,952 --> 00:01:58,951
That's a wrap on rehearsal.
58
00:01:58,994 --> 00:02:00,577
Take five.
- All right.
59
00:02:02,248 --> 00:02:04,248
- Mornin', guys.
- Good morning.
60
00:02:04,291 --> 00:02:05,457
- [laughs]
- what'd you think
61
00:02:05,501 --> 00:02:06,834
About that performance?
- It's amazing.
62
00:02:06,919 --> 00:02:08,335
- Interesting.
- Listen to this.
63
00:02:08,379 --> 00:02:12,047
Shopping from home today
is more popular than ever.
64
00:02:12,133 --> 00:02:13,382
And last year alone,
65
00:02:13,467 --> 00:02:17,094
Qvc had over 15 million
unique customers
66
00:02:17,138 --> 00:02:20,139
Generating billions
of dollars in sales.
67
00:02:20,182 --> 00:02:21,223
- Wow.
- So today
68
00:02:21,308 --> 00:02:24,685
I'm gonna put you
through your paces
69
00:02:24,770 --> 00:02:29,690
Because your next big task
is selling kitchen products
70
00:02:29,733 --> 00:02:32,151
On live television...
71
00:02:32,194 --> 00:02:33,694
- Oh, stop.
- This afternoon.
72
00:02:33,737 --> 00:02:35,112
- No way.
73
00:02:35,197 --> 00:02:36,947
- Whew.
- Now just let that sink in
74
00:02:36,991 --> 00:02:38,448
For a moment.
75
00:02:38,534 --> 00:02:41,869
This challenge will really test
your sales skills
76
00:02:41,954 --> 00:02:45,956
Whilst connecting
to an audience live.
77
00:02:46,083 --> 00:02:47,207
As for the teams,
78
00:02:47,251 --> 00:02:48,625
Let's have a little fun here,
shall we?
79
00:02:48,711 --> 00:02:52,045
Let's make it boys vs. Girls.
- Let's do it.
80
00:02:52,089 --> 00:02:54,756
- So ashley, lan, and caroline,
81
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,758
You'll be the yellow team
today,
82
00:02:56,802 --> 00:02:59,636
Which means chris, tony, aaron,
83
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,013
You'll be the red team.
84
00:03:01,056 --> 00:03:02,764
Each team will choose two hosts
85
00:03:02,850 --> 00:03:04,975
And one producer
to run the show.
86
00:03:05,060 --> 00:03:08,061
You need to be absolutely
on point
87
00:03:08,147 --> 00:03:09,855
Because there's
no second takes.
88
00:03:09,899 --> 00:03:12,733
You guys are gonna be going
live in just a few hours,
89
00:03:12,776 --> 00:03:16,028
And your time starts now.
90
00:03:17,114 --> 00:03:18,780
Both teams, good luck.
91
00:03:18,866 --> 00:03:21,158
Off you go.
- All right.
92
00:03:21,202 --> 00:03:23,368
- Today I need to see the teams
93
00:03:23,412 --> 00:03:25,787
Sell their products
with conviction.
94
00:03:25,831 --> 00:03:26,955
Whether they're on camera
95
00:03:27,082 --> 00:03:29,249
Or behind the scenes
producing,
96
00:03:29,335 --> 00:03:31,668
There's truly nowhere
to hide in this challenge.
97
00:03:31,754 --> 00:03:34,213
[dramatic music]
98
00:03:34,298 --> 00:03:36,256
I've given both teams
a fully equipped kitchen
99
00:03:36,300 --> 00:03:39,760
To prepare for their live
broadcast challenge.
100
00:03:39,845 --> 00:03:41,253
- I'm so excited for this.
101
00:03:41,305 --> 00:03:44,097
- Each team must create
20 minutes of live tv
102
00:03:44,099 --> 00:03:45,098
On their own.
103
00:03:45,184 --> 00:03:48,435
- Girls rule, and boys drool.
104
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,146
My daughter's gonna love it.
- Yeah, I love it.
105
00:03:51,232 --> 00:03:54,024
- So first job, decide
who'll be the two hosts
106
00:03:54,109 --> 00:03:55,108
In front of the camera...
107
00:03:55,194 --> 00:03:57,444
- The moneymaker's comin' out--
- whoo.
108
00:03:57,571 --> 00:03:59,238
- Qvc hair action.
109
00:03:59,323 --> 00:04:02,115
- And who will be
producing backstage.
110
00:04:02,201 --> 00:04:03,951
- I'm just looking
at common denominators.
111
00:04:03,994 --> 00:04:05,118
- Right.
- You both have kids.
112
00:04:05,204 --> 00:04:07,204
- Yeah.
- You both have a food product,
113
00:04:07,248 --> 00:04:08,872
And you both can speak on that,
114
00:04:08,958 --> 00:04:10,332
So I think it makes a lot
of sense
115
00:04:10,417 --> 00:04:11,750
For me to be the producer
in this situation.
116
00:04:11,835 --> 00:04:13,126
- Okay.
- Love it.
117
00:04:13,254 --> 00:04:15,963
- Do you feel comfortable
being one of the presenters?
118
00:04:16,006 --> 00:04:17,714
- I've always wanted
to be on qvc,
119
00:04:17,841 --> 00:04:18,882
So this is a dream.
120
00:04:18,968 --> 00:04:21,218
I'm one of qvc's biggest fans,
121
00:04:21,262 --> 00:04:24,054
Not only because I buy so much
from qvc,
122
00:04:24,098 --> 00:04:26,932
But because I've sent
so many submission videos.
123
00:04:27,017 --> 00:04:28,058
With my brand, happy grub,
124
00:04:28,102 --> 00:04:30,185
I know what we have to give
125
00:04:30,229 --> 00:04:31,979
To make our product sell.
126
00:04:32,064 --> 00:04:33,772
When it comes down
to the challenge,
127
00:04:33,857 --> 00:04:35,649
I will hit every note.
128
00:04:35,734 --> 00:04:39,569
- I've had to do similar things
like use my product,
129
00:04:39,613 --> 00:04:43,448
Pizza girl sauce while talking
and engaging with either a host
130
00:04:43,492 --> 00:04:44,866
Or the audience,
131
00:04:44,952 --> 00:04:46,159
So I definitely
feel comfortable,
132
00:04:46,245 --> 00:04:47,452
If you guys are cool with that,
133
00:04:47,538 --> 00:04:51,039
Being one of the people
that is onstage.
134
00:04:51,125 --> 00:04:52,791
- Mm-hmm.
- Caroline wants
135
00:04:52,876 --> 00:04:55,127
To be on camera,
but I am a bit concerned
136
00:04:55,212 --> 00:04:57,212
Because she cannot
handle stress.
137
00:04:57,298 --> 00:05:00,215
The challenges that I've worked
with her on,
138
00:05:00,301 --> 00:05:03,385
She gets so nervous
when she's in front of people,
139
00:05:03,470 --> 00:05:06,430
And we cannot mess up
when we're on camera
140
00:05:06,515 --> 00:05:09,266
Because there's no rewinds
when you're live.
141
00:05:10,519 --> 00:05:12,978
- Roles, what are you thinkin',
chris?
142
00:05:13,063 --> 00:05:15,147
- I have experience
doin' products
143
00:05:15,232 --> 00:05:16,815
In front of the cameras.
- Mm-hmm.
144
00:05:16,900 --> 00:05:18,483
- I'd be more comfortable
behind here
145
00:05:18,527 --> 00:05:20,777
Just 'cause I've used some
of these products before.
146
00:05:20,863 --> 00:05:22,279
- I think I'd probably do best
147
00:05:22,364 --> 00:05:24,823
In the producer booth,
lettin' you guys know time,
148
00:05:24,908 --> 00:05:26,283
Keepin' the time management
down.
149
00:05:26,368 --> 00:05:28,660
I'm about to produce the hell
outta these guys.
150
00:05:28,704 --> 00:05:31,163
I need to be telling
these guys exactly what
151
00:05:31,248 --> 00:05:33,832
To expect, where to go,
and where to look.
152
00:05:33,959 --> 00:05:35,751
I feel really good about
going into the day.
153
00:05:35,794 --> 00:05:38,211
- I'll be the host and--
'cause you're so familiar
154
00:05:38,297 --> 00:05:40,088
With everything and I'm not.
- Mm-hmm.
155
00:05:40,174 --> 00:05:41,256
- And I'll be like,
"I'm the idiot."
156
00:05:41,342 --> 00:05:42,966
[babbling]
"I don't know how to use this.
157
00:05:43,052 --> 00:05:44,634
Well, tony, show me how
to do this."
158
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,428
And then you're gonna be like,
"well, it's so simple, chris.
159
00:05:46,513 --> 00:05:48,213
Even you can do it."
- it'll be one hell
160
00:05:48,223 --> 00:05:50,057
Of 20 minutes,
I guarantee you that.
161
00:05:50,142 --> 00:05:51,975
- Next...
- We should use these
162
00:05:52,061 --> 00:05:53,852
Because look at how cute
they are, for one.
163
00:05:53,896 --> 00:05:55,520
They're collapsible for space.
164
00:05:55,564 --> 00:05:57,606
- The teams need to choose
a selection of products
165
00:05:57,649 --> 00:06:00,776
They want to sell...
- This is just a cool gadget.
166
00:06:00,819 --> 00:06:01,943
- When the cameras go live.
167
00:06:01,987 --> 00:06:04,446
- I love the whole--
[both laugh]
168
00:06:04,490 --> 00:06:06,281
I've used all
of these things before,
169
00:06:06,367 --> 00:06:09,826
And they're easy to explain
with my culinary background.
170
00:06:09,912 --> 00:06:11,620
There's a lot of moving parts
171
00:06:11,663 --> 00:06:12,746
And, you know, you just have
172
00:06:12,831 --> 00:06:13,914
To stick to what you know.
173
00:06:13,999 --> 00:06:15,165
[device whirring]
174
00:06:15,250 --> 00:06:16,958
- I think that's a no-brainer.
175
00:06:17,002 --> 00:06:18,835
- It looks like
it would be entertaining.
176
00:06:18,921 --> 00:06:20,128
- The air fryer,
177
00:06:20,172 --> 00:06:21,963
It has multiple racks in it,
178
00:06:22,007 --> 00:06:23,256
And they're dishwasher safe...
179
00:06:23,342 --> 00:06:25,175
- Mm-hmm.
- Which is a huge thing.
180
00:06:25,260 --> 00:06:27,219
I didn't think you could love
an object like that,
181
00:06:27,262 --> 00:06:29,346
But I love my air fryer.
- Amazing.
182
00:06:29,390 --> 00:06:31,348
So you're gonna sell the crap
outta that air fryer.
183
00:06:31,433 --> 00:06:33,934
- Yep, I will.
- It's definitely comforting
184
00:06:34,019 --> 00:06:35,185
To have ashley on my team.
185
00:06:35,229 --> 00:06:37,646
I mean, she knows qvc
in and out.
186
00:06:37,731 --> 00:06:39,231
She watches it for fun.
187
00:06:39,274 --> 00:06:41,900
She literally just sounds
and looks right at home
188
00:06:41,985 --> 00:06:43,151
In the qvc arena,
189
00:06:43,237 --> 00:06:45,237
So I think
she's doin' a great job.
190
00:06:45,322 --> 00:06:48,031
I am thinking whatever
we're selling, it has to flow.
191
00:06:48,117 --> 00:06:50,242
I'm thinking a recipe.
192
00:06:50,327 --> 00:06:52,077
The story is that there's
two moms out there.
193
00:06:52,121 --> 00:06:53,370
They have crazy busy lives,
194
00:06:53,455 --> 00:06:56,123
And these are kitchen tools
and appliances
195
00:06:56,208 --> 00:06:58,959
To help them have
an easier life.
196
00:06:59,002 --> 00:07:01,086
- Let's do a run.
- Let's do it.
197
00:07:01,130 --> 00:07:03,505
Three, two, and you're live.
198
00:07:03,549 --> 00:07:06,716
- We are busy moms.
We are working entrepreneurs,
199
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,051
And we are here to show you
200
00:07:08,095 --> 00:07:10,095
Five different
kitchen utensils--
201
00:07:10,139 --> 00:07:12,180
- Cut.
I think a really critical point
202
00:07:12,224 --> 00:07:15,142
To really tie in
the five kitchen things
203
00:07:15,227 --> 00:07:17,769
To really do a simple
and easy recipe.
204
00:07:17,813 --> 00:07:19,479
- It's not really
about the recipe.
205
00:07:19,565 --> 00:07:22,899
- You guys are going
through a recipe essentially.
206
00:07:22,985 --> 00:07:24,776
- But it's not a recipe, right?
207
00:07:24,862 --> 00:07:26,236
- You know, caroline tends
to focus
208
00:07:26,321 --> 00:07:28,280
On the small
nitty-gritty details,
209
00:07:28,365 --> 00:07:30,323
And I'm focused on big picture.
210
00:07:30,367 --> 00:07:33,243
This whole thing is gonna be
ten times more fluid
211
00:07:33,287 --> 00:07:36,204
If you guys are walking
through a recipe.
212
00:07:36,248 --> 00:07:39,958
- Using the word "recipe" is
just confusing to the consumer.
213
00:07:40,002 --> 00:07:41,460
What's up with lan
and this recipe
214
00:07:41,545 --> 00:07:42,711
She wants to do?
215
00:07:42,796 --> 00:07:44,087
Honestly, with only 20 minutes
216
00:07:44,089 --> 00:07:45,964
To show off five products,
217
00:07:46,008 --> 00:07:47,507
A recipe is not
218
00:07:47,593 --> 00:07:48,592
What we should be doing.
219
00:07:48,844 --> 00:07:52,053
I mean, come on.
This is not a cooking show.
220
00:07:52,139 --> 00:07:53,847
- All of these things have
to make sense.
221
00:07:53,891 --> 00:07:55,390
Trust me on this.
222
00:08:01,899 --> 00:08:03,273
[upbeat tense music]
223
00:08:03,317 --> 00:08:05,400
- My six remaining food
and drink entrepreneurs
224
00:08:05,444 --> 00:08:09,070
Are competing to win
$1/4 million of my investment
225
00:08:09,156 --> 00:08:10,197
Into their business.
226
00:08:10,282 --> 00:08:11,364
- With gordon's investment,
227
00:08:11,450 --> 00:08:13,283
It would push
tony b's steak chips
228
00:08:13,368 --> 00:08:15,911
Into the realm
of its own category.
229
00:08:15,996 --> 00:08:17,496
I wanna win this, absolutely.
230
00:08:17,581 --> 00:08:20,123
- This week's challenge
is to produce and host
231
00:08:20,167 --> 00:08:23,210
A 20-minute live show on qvc.
[liquid boiling]
232
00:08:23,253 --> 00:08:26,129
- I would show you putting it
in there, pushing the button.
233
00:08:26,215 --> 00:08:28,006
- The two teams will be judged
on their ability
234
00:08:28,091 --> 00:08:30,091
To learn from the experts...
235
00:08:30,135 --> 00:08:33,011
- Guys, three easy payments,
blah, blah, blah.
236
00:08:33,096 --> 00:08:34,846
- Right.
- Connect with an audience...
237
00:08:34,932 --> 00:08:36,556
- If I miss
a really important detail,
238
00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,266
Boom, you're gonna get it right
in my ear.
239
00:08:38,352 --> 00:08:41,144
- And how they cope
when the heat is on.
240
00:08:41,230 --> 00:08:43,230
- Look at these
incredible pots.
241
00:08:43,315 --> 00:08:44,648
Ow!
242
00:08:44,733 --> 00:08:47,484
- There's less than two hours
until they go live,
243
00:08:47,569 --> 00:08:51,154
But the yellow team still
can't agree on their plan.
244
00:08:51,198 --> 00:08:53,281
- We're gonna use
these five kitchen things...
245
00:08:53,316 --> 00:08:55,075
- Five kitchen--
- to really do a simple
246
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:56,326
And easy recipe.
- But I just don't wanna get
247
00:08:56,370 --> 00:08:58,537
Too wrapped up in the recipe,
right?
248
00:08:58,664 --> 00:09:01,206
- So right now we are not off
to a great start.
249
00:09:01,250 --> 00:09:04,084
Lan wants to do
a five-piece recipe
250
00:09:04,127 --> 00:09:06,044
With our five
different products,
251
00:09:06,088 --> 00:09:07,796
And caroline has an issue.
252
00:09:07,881 --> 00:09:09,256
- I think using
the word "recipe"
253
00:09:09,299 --> 00:09:11,216
Is just confusing
to the consumer.
254
00:09:11,343 --> 00:09:12,717
I do, because it just
seems like
255
00:09:12,761 --> 00:09:14,135
We're gonna show them a recipe.
256
00:09:14,221 --> 00:09:15,887
- I guarantee you,
it's gonna be so impactful.
257
00:09:15,973 --> 00:09:20,016
It's gonna flow.
Trust me on this.
258
00:09:20,102 --> 00:09:21,101
- We haven't really
talked about
259
00:09:21,186 --> 00:09:22,852
What we wanna make in this.
260
00:09:22,938 --> 00:09:24,688
- Why don't we do, like,
a carrot, apple,
261
00:09:24,731 --> 00:09:26,606
Kale, broccoli thing?
262
00:09:26,650 --> 00:09:27,649
- Do you do smoothies?
263
00:09:27,734 --> 00:09:29,359
- Yeah, just throw it all
in there.
264
00:09:29,403 --> 00:09:30,902
- Throw it all in there?
- Throw it all in there.
265
00:09:31,029 --> 00:09:32,654
- Okay.
266
00:09:32,698 --> 00:09:34,114
- It's gonna taste terrible.
267
00:09:34,241 --> 00:09:35,991
- Nah, this'll be delicious.
- Okay.
268
00:09:36,034 --> 00:09:37,867
[blender whirring]
269
00:09:37,953 --> 00:09:40,537
- Wow, look at that thing mix.
270
00:09:40,581 --> 00:09:41,913
Look at that. Oh.
271
00:09:41,999 --> 00:09:43,290
- [laughs]
272
00:09:43,375 --> 00:09:45,792
- Look, look how delicious
and green--
273
00:09:45,877 --> 00:09:47,377
- Wow.
- That stinks.
274
00:09:47,462 --> 00:09:50,088
Look at that.
- This looks awful.
275
00:09:50,132 --> 00:09:52,090
- Oh, my god.
- [chuckles]
276
00:09:52,175 --> 00:09:55,218
- It's not chunky at all.
- Oh, this is amazing.
277
00:09:55,262 --> 00:09:56,970
- [laughs] good.
- Oh, god. [spits]
278
00:09:57,055 --> 00:09:58,555
- [laughs]
- it's not just
279
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,850
Their front-of-camera hosting
skills I'm testing here.
280
00:10:01,935 --> 00:10:03,518
If the teams are to win
this challenge,
281
00:10:03,562 --> 00:10:04,978
They must run
an effective show
282
00:10:05,022 --> 00:10:06,313
From behind the scenes.
283
00:10:06,398 --> 00:10:08,064
- Welcome
to the producer station.
284
00:10:08,150 --> 00:10:10,317
- I've lined up
senior qvc producer,
285
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,153
Sean hagan, to give lan
and aaron a crash course
286
00:10:13,238 --> 00:10:15,280
In the control room.
287
00:10:15,324 --> 00:10:17,782
- Your eyes have to see
this screen and that screen,
288
00:10:17,868 --> 00:10:18,983
And this right here
is probably one
289
00:10:18,994 --> 00:10:20,869
Of the most important things
you'll need.
290
00:10:20,912 --> 00:10:21,911
- Time.
- Time.
291
00:10:21,997 --> 00:10:23,121
One of your other
valuable tools
292
00:10:23,165 --> 00:10:25,373
Is standing right there
on-screen, okay?
293
00:10:25,500 --> 00:10:27,083
- Uh-huh.
- You have a headset connection
294
00:10:27,169 --> 00:10:29,044
To this button right here.
- Okay.
295
00:10:29,129 --> 00:10:30,879
- All right,
so you talk to him,
296
00:10:30,964 --> 00:10:32,380
And you give them direction.
297
00:10:32,424 --> 00:10:34,090
Now you will have two people...
- Okay.
298
00:10:34,176 --> 00:10:35,258
- Listening to you...
- Mm-hmm, yep.
299
00:10:35,344 --> 00:10:36,885
- At the same time,
so you're gonna need
300
00:10:36,970 --> 00:10:38,845
To be specific,
which team member
301
00:10:38,889 --> 00:10:40,305
You'll want to do what.
302
00:10:40,390 --> 00:10:42,390
You kind of have to be
their eyes and ears for them.
303
00:10:42,434 --> 00:10:43,975
- I definitely felt
the pressure
304
00:10:44,019 --> 00:10:45,518
From the very beginning
305
00:10:45,604 --> 00:10:46,603
Because every piece
306
00:10:46,647 --> 00:10:47,687
Of the puzzle
307
00:10:47,773 --> 00:10:49,147
Falls on to the producers.
308
00:10:49,232 --> 00:10:50,815
- Hey, alberti. This is aaron.
309
00:10:50,901 --> 00:10:52,359
- Hey, aaron. How are you?
310
00:10:52,402 --> 00:10:53,360
- Great.
311
00:10:53,445 --> 00:10:55,111
You know, that's a challenge
for you.
312
00:10:55,155 --> 00:10:56,821
- Okay, get ready.
313
00:10:56,865 --> 00:10:57,989
- Is this lan?
314
00:10:58,033 --> 00:11:00,158
[both laugh]
- yes, this is lan.
315
00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:01,910
- It's okay to say--yeah.
316
00:11:01,995 --> 00:11:03,119
- Okay, this is lan,
and we're gonna go
317
00:11:03,163 --> 00:11:05,080
On to the kettle next.
318
00:11:05,165 --> 00:11:06,623
I've never been a producer,
319
00:11:06,667 --> 00:11:09,084
And that was something that was
really appealing to me...
320
00:11:09,127 --> 00:11:11,711
Three, two, now you're live.
321
00:11:11,797 --> 00:11:14,089
To be able to sit down
in that chair,
322
00:11:14,174 --> 00:11:15,840
Do a million things at once,
323
00:11:15,884 --> 00:11:17,217
And really feel in control.
324
00:11:17,260 --> 00:11:19,719
How do you suggest,
like, communicating?
325
00:11:19,805 --> 00:11:20,887
- Being confident...
- Mm-hmm.
326
00:11:20,972 --> 00:11:22,097
- But also being direct
in the direction
327
00:11:22,182 --> 00:11:23,473
You wanna go.
- Okay.
328
00:11:23,517 --> 00:11:25,809
- And you have to be ahead
of them in many cases,
329
00:11:25,852 --> 00:11:27,811
So you have to be thinking,
"what do you wanna do next?"
330
00:11:27,896 --> 00:11:29,020
- Okay, I just don't want them
331
00:11:29,064 --> 00:11:30,063
To look like a deer
in headlights.
332
00:11:30,148 --> 00:11:31,690
[dramatic beat]
333
00:11:31,775 --> 00:11:34,734
[tense music]
334
00:11:34,861 --> 00:11:36,236
- I guess today,
what we have to do
335
00:11:36,321 --> 00:11:38,780
Is just think as if
these are our products.
336
00:11:38,865 --> 00:11:40,240
- We want it to sell.
- Yes.
337
00:11:40,325 --> 00:11:42,409
- Time to check in
on the teams.
338
00:11:42,494 --> 00:11:44,244
Ladies, how we doing?
- Done with this?
339
00:11:44,329 --> 00:11:46,246
- We are doing great.
- Yeah? Well, good indeed.
340
00:11:46,289 --> 00:11:47,664
- How are you?
- How we feeling?
341
00:11:47,749 --> 00:11:49,249
- Hi. Good.
342
00:11:49,334 --> 00:11:53,086
- Assisting me is qvc host,
alberti popaj.
343
00:11:53,171 --> 00:11:54,462
- Trying to incorporate
a little story
344
00:11:54,506 --> 00:11:56,005
And a little rhythm right now.
- Smart.
345
00:11:56,091 --> 00:11:57,048
- Well, the story
is we're making
346
00:11:57,134 --> 00:11:59,092
A simple penne with meatballs,
347
00:11:59,219 --> 00:12:01,720
So we're just gonna go
from there, uh,

519
00:17:31,134 --> 00:17:32,675
Of character and nerve.
520
00:17:32,761 --> 00:17:34,260
- Whoo!
521
00:17:34,262 --> 00:17:36,220
- The yellow team think
they're about to go live
522
00:17:36,306 --> 00:17:38,806
To the nation
on a tv shopping channel.
523
00:17:38,933 --> 00:17:40,391
- 10 seconds.
- Come on.
524
00:17:40,477 --> 00:17:43,436
But instead, they have
to convince me
525
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,555
And a team of qvc executives
they can work together,
526
00:17:46,566 --> 00:17:48,858
Connect with a roomful
of buyers,
527
00:17:48,902 --> 00:17:50,401
And cope with the pressure
528
00:17:50,445 --> 00:17:54,155
On both sides of the camera
to be this week's winner.
529
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:56,449
- I think caroline's
struggling a little bit.
530
00:17:56,534 --> 00:17:58,534
I just need her to reel in
that nervous energy
531
00:17:58,578 --> 00:18:00,912
'cause it's making me
really uncomfortable,
532
00:18:00,997 --> 00:18:02,747
And I wanna make it
to the finale.
533
00:18:02,832 --> 00:18:04,582
I wanna bring home a win.
534
00:18:04,626 --> 00:18:07,376
Both: Three, two, one.
535
00:18:07,462 --> 00:18:08,419
- Action.
536
00:18:09,380 --> 00:18:12,632
- Go.
- Hi, my name is ashley,
537
00:18:12,717 --> 00:18:14,008
And I am a mom of two.
538
00:18:14,052 --> 00:18:15,343
I have a three
and a four-year-old,
539
00:18:15,386 --> 00:18:19,263
And today in the kitchen,
moms are taking over...
540
00:18:19,298 --> 00:18:20,890
- Whoo.
- And we are gonna show you
541
00:18:20,934 --> 00:18:22,183
What it takes to make a meal
542
00:18:22,268 --> 00:18:24,852
With all
of these wonderful devices
543
00:18:24,938 --> 00:18:26,062
That you need to have
in your kitchen.
544
00:18:26,106 --> 00:18:28,147
- Ashley, look
at the red light camera.
545
00:18:28,191 --> 00:18:29,649
- Absolutely.
My name is caroline,
546
00:18:29,734 --> 00:18:31,600
And I am also a mom.
547
00:18:31,611 --> 00:18:32,610
- Good energy.
548
00:18:32,654 --> 00:18:33,611
- I'm ready to have fun.
549
00:18:33,696 --> 00:18:35,113
- Components, ashley.
550
00:18:35,198 --> 00:18:37,448
- Do you ever go through
a fast food restaurant,
551
00:18:37,534 --> 00:18:40,284
And you have these soggy fries
when you get home?
552
00:18:40,370 --> 00:18:41,953
- I love that she asked
a question, by the way.
553
00:18:42,038 --> 00:18:42,954
- Yes.
- I do too.
554
00:18:42,997 --> 00:18:44,205
- Colors.
555
00:18:44,290 --> 00:18:46,415
- This comes
in five unique colors.
556
00:18:46,417 --> 00:18:48,626
- Oh, they called out
the colors.
557
00:18:48,711 --> 00:18:49,877
- This is wonderful
558
00:18:50,004 --> 00:18:52,171
Because it makes mom life
so easy
559
00:18:52,257 --> 00:18:54,298
When you have chicken nuggets
for the kids.
560
00:18:54,384 --> 00:18:56,217
Even if it's
a frozen crème brûlée
561
00:18:56,261 --> 00:18:57,844
From the...
- Absolutely.
562
00:18:57,929 --> 00:18:59,053
- You can heat it up.
563
00:18:59,139 --> 00:19:01,264
- [bleep]. Christ.
- Heat it up.
564
00:19:01,349 --> 00:19:03,558
- Wrap it up and transition
to caroline.
565
00:19:03,601 --> 00:19:07,186
- And this is the jason wu
eight-piece cookware set.
566
00:19:07,230 --> 00:19:09,188
Let me just show you.
First of all,
567
00:19:09,274 --> 00:19:12,692
These are extremely light
in weight, which is amazing.
568
00:19:12,777 --> 00:19:15,111
There is a very even, um...
569
00:19:15,196 --> 00:19:16,362
- She looks
a little more nervous.
570
00:19:16,406 --> 00:19:18,865
- Uh, aluminum.
- Five layer.
571
00:19:18,950 --> 00:19:20,774
- Five layer, um--
- convection.
572
00:19:20,827 --> 00:19:22,285
- Cook surface.
Both: Yes.
573
00:19:22,328 --> 00:19:24,120
- Yes, on the bottom here,
which is amazing.
574
00:19:24,164 --> 00:19:26,831
And it comes with a larger--
575
00:19:26,916 --> 00:19:28,124
- Fry pan.
576
00:19:28,168 --> 00:19:30,084
- A larger fry pan,
so you have your...
577
00:19:30,128 --> 00:19:31,127
- Exactly.
- Small one
578
00:19:31,171 --> 00:19:33,004
And your large fry pan.
579
00:19:33,039 --> 00:19:35,047
- I'm not sure
who's in charge here.
580
00:19:35,133 --> 00:19:37,717
Who's the lead?
- That's--that's so true.
581
00:19:37,844 --> 00:19:39,302
- Yes.
- Pot over here
582
00:19:39,387 --> 00:19:41,846
That can double
as a dutch oven.
583
00:19:41,931 --> 00:19:43,222
How cool is that?
584
00:19:43,266 --> 00:19:45,141
- We have a phone call
coming in.
585
00:19:45,226 --> 00:19:47,518
- Oh, my gosh, I just heard
we have a phone call coming in.
586
00:19:47,562 --> 00:19:50,188
- My panel of executives are
playing the role of customers
587
00:19:50,231 --> 00:19:51,981
Calling into the channel...
588
00:19:52,066 --> 00:19:53,232
- Hi, ladies. Oh, my goodness.
589
00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:54,984
I am so excited
to be talking to you.
590
00:19:55,069 --> 00:19:56,611
- To test the team's
product knowledge
591
00:19:56,654 --> 00:19:58,779
Under the spotlight.
- What about cast aluminum?
592
00:19:58,865 --> 00:20:00,156
Is there any benefit?
'cause I hear a lot about
593
00:20:00,241 --> 00:20:01,490
Different cooking surfaces.
594
00:20:01,534 --> 00:20:03,618
- Even heating. Even heating.
- Absolutely.
595
00:20:03,661 --> 00:20:04,744
- What should I use?
596
00:20:04,829 --> 00:20:05,912
- If you use the aluminum,
597
00:20:05,997 --> 00:20:07,705
It's gonna be so easy to wash.
- Mm-hmm.
598
00:20:07,790 --> 00:20:09,081
- Right? It's nonstick.
599
00:20:09,167 --> 00:20:10,374
- Even heating.
600
00:20:10,418 --> 00:20:12,376
- And you can also throw these
601
00:20:12,420 --> 00:20:14,879
Right in the dishwasher,
which is so exciting.
602
00:20:14,964 --> 00:20:16,547
- Ashley,
say that it heats evenly.
603
00:20:16,674 --> 00:20:19,550
- And the best part about it
is, it heats evenly.
604
00:20:19,636 --> 00:20:22,011
- Say thank you to the caller,
and wrap it up.
605
00:20:22,096 --> 00:20:23,930
- You can then throw your pasta
right in.
606
00:20:24,015 --> 00:20:26,098
- Ashley, say thank you
to the caller.
607
00:20:26,184 --> 00:20:28,059
- 54360--
- all right, thank you, caller.
608
00:20:28,102 --> 00:20:29,977
We so appreciate
you calling in.
609
00:20:30,063 --> 00:20:31,312
Thank you
for all your questions.
610
00:20:31,397 --> 00:20:32,980
- They're talking over
each other.
611
00:20:33,024 --> 00:20:34,473
- I think they're not listening
to each other.
612
00:20:34,525 --> 00:20:36,108
- They're not.
- Now let's move on
613
00:20:36,152 --> 00:20:37,443
And talk to you guys about
614
00:20:37,528 --> 00:20:43,574
These beautiful jason wu
bamboo six-piece--
615
00:20:43,618 --> 00:20:45,826
- Six? Wow.
- Um, yes. You get six pieces.
616
00:20:45,870 --> 00:20:48,120
How great is that? Spoon set.
617
00:20:48,164 --> 00:20:49,872
- Don't forget about the tongs.
618
00:20:49,999 --> 00:20:52,124
- Oh, and don't forget the--
- the tongs.
619
00:20:52,168 --> 00:20:53,584
- The tongs.
- It's very interesting
620
00:20:53,628 --> 00:20:56,254
That they chose to have
all the products out there
621
00:20:56,256 --> 00:20:57,588
All at the same time.
622
00:20:57,674 --> 00:20:58,923
I understand
where they're going,
623
00:20:58,967 --> 00:21:01,008
But there's a lot going on.
- It's confusing.
624
00:21:01,094 --> 00:21:02,134
- I'm not sure
what you're presenting.
625
00:21:02,220 --> 00:21:04,011
I'm not sure where to look.
- Yeah.
626
00:21:04,097 --> 00:21:05,096
- And just a reminder,
you guys,
627
00:21:05,181 --> 00:21:09,016
The sku number
on this one is k54357.
628
00:21:09,102 --> 00:21:10,768
Just so you know when you can--
[dramatic sting]
629
00:21:10,853 --> 00:21:12,979
- That's--you would never
do that.
630
00:21:13,064 --> 00:21:15,398
- No.
- That's a huge faux pas.
631
00:21:15,483 --> 00:21:16,274
- Yeah.
632
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:17,733
- With the quality that comes
633
00:21:17,819 --> 00:21:19,652
With these bamboo utensil sets,
634
00:21:19,696 --> 00:21:21,988
This is definitely something
that you wanna cherish.
635
00:21:22,073 --> 00:21:24,073
- 'cause look at how beautiful
they are, right?
636
00:21:24,117 --> 00:21:25,366
- That looks gross.
- [laughs]
637
00:21:25,410 --> 00:21:26,492
- Strong finish. Come on.
638
00:21:26,661 --> 00:21:27,994
- These are pretty cool.
These are incredible.
639
00:21:28,037 --> 00:21:29,036
- Yes, they are.
640
00:21:29,122 --> 00:21:30,871
These are
our cook's essentials set
641
00:21:30,999 --> 00:21:33,708
Of three-piece
collapsible strainers.
642
00:21:33,793 --> 00:21:35,001
- Speed it up, guys.
643
00:21:35,086 --> 00:21:36,294
- These are so easy to store...
- Mm-hmm.
644
00:21:36,296 --> 00:21:38,045
- You guys.
It's kind of incredible.
645
00:21:38,131 --> 00:21:40,039
- She's showin' 'em sideways.
- This is good.
646
00:21:40,049 --> 00:21:41,549
- And at the same time,
647
00:21:41,592 --> 00:21:43,551
They're really highlighting
the color palette,
648
00:21:43,594 --> 00:21:44,719
Which looks beautiful.
649
00:21:44,762 --> 00:21:45,845
- Price, guys.
650
00:21:45,930 --> 00:21:47,013
- So our price today--
651
00:21:47,098 --> 00:21:48,347
Are you ready for it, caroline?
652
00:21:48,474 --> 00:21:50,224
- I'm ready for it, ashley.
- On qvc...
653
00:21:50,310 --> 00:21:53,019
- [laughs]
- it is 32.96.
654
00:21:53,062 --> 00:21:54,895
- That's it?
- Yes, that is.
655
00:21:54,981 --> 00:21:56,230
- Five seconds. Thank you.
- All right.
656
00:21:56,357 --> 00:21:58,065
Thank you, everyone.
- Thank you so much.
657
00:21:58,109 --> 00:21:59,942
Thank you so much.
658
00:21:59,986 --> 00:22:01,694
[dramatic music]
659
00:22:01,738 --> 00:22:03,988
- Whew, lord.
660
00:22:04,032 --> 00:22:05,865
I am feeling a ton
661
00:22:05,950 --> 00:22:07,283
Of adrenaline at this moment.
662
00:22:07,368 --> 00:22:10,494
I am genuinely walking around
with my head held high.
663
00:22:10,580 --> 00:22:12,121
- We got it, mom.
- Thank you very much. Whoo.
664
00:22:12,165 --> 00:22:14,290
- I gave it 100% of what I had,
665
00:22:14,334 --> 00:22:16,542
And I do believe
that our girl team
666
00:22:16,586 --> 00:22:17,877
Did enough to win.
667
00:22:17,962 --> 00:22:20,379
- Good job.
- Thank you.
668
00:22:20,465 --> 00:22:22,089
- Yay.
669
00:22:22,175 --> 00:22:24,925
- It's now time
for the red team to go live.
670
00:22:25,053 --> 00:22:27,219
- I hope the girls
completely bombed it.
671
00:22:27,263 --> 00:22:29,805
Who knows?
But I know and my team knows
672
00:22:29,849 --> 00:22:33,059
That we're gonna do everything
that we can, you know, to win.
673
00:22:33,144 --> 00:22:35,269
- Tony, can you acknowledge me?
674
00:22:35,313 --> 00:22:36,520
- Tony, acknowledge--
can you hear him?
675
00:22:36,564 --> 00:22:38,147
- Tony, can you hear me at--
- I can't.
676
00:22:38,232 --> 00:22:39,648
- You can't hear him.
- Yeah, I can't hear him.
677
00:22:39,734 --> 00:22:40,983
- He can't hear him.
678
00:22:41,027 --> 00:22:43,110
- You know, live tv
is extremely difficult.
679
00:22:43,196 --> 00:22:44,487
You have so much going on.
680
00:22:44,530 --> 00:22:46,989
You know, I'm just trying
to keep it together.
681
00:22:47,033 --> 00:22:48,282
- Here we go.
You got audio now.
682
00:22:48,368 --> 00:22:50,659
- So give tony a check now.
See if he hears you.
683
00:22:50,703 --> 00:22:51,660
- Tony, can you hear me now?
684
00:22:51,704 --> 00:22:53,120
- I can hear you.
- Good.
685
00:22:53,164 --> 00:22:55,206
- Take a deep breath.
686
00:22:55,249 --> 00:22:59,418
Both: Five, four,
three, two, one.
687
00:22:59,504 --> 00:23:01,545

and so it was evident
1037
00:35:52,401 --> 00:35:55,193
That there was a lot more
pieces to maintain and juggle.
1038
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:57,445
It was a lot more difficult
than I was expecting for sure.

- How much info was aaron
sending down your ear?
1040

- He wasn't sending much,
or when he was sending it,
1041
00:36:04,037 --> 00:36:05,203
It was as I was saying it,
1042
00:36:05,289 --> 00:36:07,205
Like the cord
on the electric skillet.

Looked at it, four feet.
"it's 48 inches."
1044
00:36:10,252 --> 00:36:11,668

after the fact
1045
00:36:11,753 --> 00:36:14,296
That I answered the question.
1046
00:36:14,339 --> 00:36:16,256
- Tony's earpiece,
what happened there?
1047
00:36:16,300 --> 00:36:17,674
- I saw it pop out.
- Mm-hmm.
1048
00:36:17,718 --> 00:36:21,011
- And I cued him to put it back
in a couple times,
1049
00:36:21,096 --> 00:36:23,638
And he just wouldn't put it
back in.
1050
00:36:23,765 --> 00:36:25,056
- I didn't feel it pop out.
1051

Chris is alongside you,
telling you to put it back in.
1053

- I heard him, and I just--
1054
00:36:34,318 --> 00:36:36,443
And I was waiting till we went
on the blank screen.
1055
00:36:36,528 --> 00:36:38,111

- I was waiting for that cue
1056
00:36:38,238 --> 00:36:39,738
To put it back in my ear.
1057
00:36:39,740 --> 00:36:41,281
- You were shouting at us.
1058
00:36:41,366 --> 00:36:43,450
As opposed to
this authentic individual,
1059
00:36:43,493 --> 00:36:45,285
It came like
a secondhand car salesman.
1060
00:36:45,370 --> 00:36:47,412

stressful 20 minutes

comin' across as inauthentic
