[ Cheers and applause ]
-You did it! What's your name?
-My name is a Awari, from Virginia Beach, Virginia.
-Yeah. -Little 7-5-7.
-Yes, sir. You already know.
-That was a great performance and right on time, too, man.
I know both of these two are down to the last spots
on their team, and they're being extra picky.
So way to kick the door down Congratulations, man.
-Thank you so much. -Happy for you. Yes, sir.
-Awari, that was phenomenal.
I am just thinking through all the fun we could have
dipping into the classic R&B soul stuff
That also happens to be one of my wife's favorite songs ever.
So she's gonna be very happy if you pick me.
I'm actually making an album right now
that's got a lot of those same influences.
I'd love to just make a lot of noise with you, man
-Thank you. I appreciate it.
-Tell us a little bit about yourself.
-I just got out the military -Which branch of the military?
-Air Force. -Alright.
-Thank you for your service. -Yeah, thank you.
-Thank you so much.
Well, I thought you sounded so good.
That song is right up my alley.
This is my, like, high-school years.
-Me, too. -My team is full.
So I couldn't have turned for you.
But I'm excited for you to be on the show.
-Wow. [ Cheers and applause ]
-I hit my button first.
-That is true. -I loved the song selection.
That's a couples skate if I've ever heard one,
from my childhood. -[ Chuckles ]
-And also I loved your runs. You weren't trying too hard.
It was just very emotional
I'm really good at navigating competitions
not only myself, but also I've won this show
three times, so I can win this show with the key is, is --
-That sounds real good. -See? Exactly, Awari.
Just keep looking this way
-Alright. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on.
-Awari, she -- she's won the show, but I have not.
Which, actually, I think gives me a healthy chip
on my shoulder to work extra hard
to help get you to the finale. -Do you want to take the risk?
Is that what we're doing now -It's not a risk.
It's the right choice. -So, do you want to be
with somebody who really wants to win
or with somebody who's been there, done that?
[ Laughter ] You know what I'm saying?
-Now you've got to make a decision, Awari.
-Look at that fancy jacket Will that sway you?
-Hey, Nick, you got some jackets?
-I-I don't have jackets. I've got something better.
-Show him the Nick's Notes Just show him the Nick's Notes
-If you like to write stuff down in a really cool book,
'cause I got one of those. -I can buy you a journal.
-I don't know. If I choose Nick, though,
he might put me on the new album.
[ Laughter ]
-Tough decision. Who do you pick as your coach?
-Wow, this is way harder than I thought.
Oh, my gosh.
Jackets, uh, book. -"Jackets." [ Laughs ]
-Aah! [ Laughter ]
-[ Laughing ] "Jackets or books"?
[ Laughter ]
Come on, Awari! -Make the right choice.
-♪♪ Only you, only you, make me say I'mma be okay
-I feel like Nick. -Oh!
-Oh! -Ouch.
