-What a fun song selection.
-Car wash.
-And you just lit it up in here. That was so much fun.
Hailey, I can't believe you are 13 years old.
It's like...
-Crazy. It's crazy. -[ Laughs ]
You sing with so much confidence and presence.
It's just ridiculous. Congratulations.
-Thank you so much.
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Raquel, you're just full of color and energy.
It was, like, hard not to watch you because you put on a show.
Your voice is so cool. I love your tone.
I love how there's, like, this little scratch in it.
It's very pop-friendly,
but it also has this little, like, edge to it, too.
You just have a level of polish
and professionalism in your voice.
I would side with Raquel in this if I were to choose.
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Hi, ladies. -Hi.
-I turned for both of you in the blinds.
I adore both of you.
Raquel, I love your vibe. -Thank you.
-You could sing any pop song, but you make it even cooler.
You've just got a really rad voice.
But I will say my surprise today was Hailey.
There's something that's just super kind of magical
about the fact that you're 13 and you just did that.
-Thank you. -You're a really gifted singer.
With power and with how you do your runs,
I was just like, "What?!"
I think that there's a path for both of you on the show.
They're both really, really good.
-Thank you.
-This is a tough one. I love both of your voices.
You know, with Hailey, I feel like
there is still some development.
I mean, obviously, she's 13.
From a coaching standpoint, that's interesting,
'cause you can get in there and you can help effect change.
And then with Raquel, I mean, she's ready right now.
Like, you could say, "Okay, we're going to lives tomorrow,
pick -- pick a damn song,"
and I guarantee you she will and she'll be ready.
And -- And that's exciting, too.
-Thank you, coaches.
Alright, Ariana, before the final decision,
give us your thoughts.
-Raquel, from the blind auditions,
you've been one of my favorite performers
and voices.
And, Hailey, you were able to push yourself
outside of your comfort zone
and grow so much.
And I am floored by you.
This was not something you would pick to sing.
I don't think you're a pop girl in this way,
but you have the soul to pull it off, and you really did.
That's why I wanted to challenge you with it.
And that, to me, is a sign that you're here
in this musical world as a performer to stay forever.
I love and adore you both so much.
-Ariana, tough decision.
Who is the winner of this battle?
♪♪
-The winner of this battle...

...is Raquel.
-Raquel Trinidad will move on to the knockouts representing...
-I'm really proud of Hailey Mia, but I had to pick Raquel
because I think she did so beautifully today,
and I feel like I'm the right coach for her.
We do have a lot of the same influences
and stylistic similarities.
She is so talented.
-Coaches, let me remind you that Hailey is available to steal.
Hailey, anything you want to say to your coach --
We've got a steal!
Kelly Clarkson uses her one and only steal.
-They just stole her. I'm so happy. [ Laughs ]
-Whoa! Nobody's happier than your coach, Ariana.
-Whoo! Thank God! I'm sorry.
-I did not plan on using my steal here.
But you came out, and I was like, "What?"
You're really gifted.
I feel like I would be a really good coach for you.
And I've navigated a competition before,
but not -- I said "navigate," that's right. -Drink up.
-Go ahead. Go ahead. -Drink up. Drink up.
-I'm very excited to have you on my team.
I was 19, you know, when I was in her shoes.
-Kelly steals Hailey.
-At 13? That was so impressive to me.
So good!
