Whoo! Yes!
-Cara, Jay, that was so good.
-You guys should cover that song.
-We should. You're right.
-Who's leather and who's lace?
[ Laughter ] -Oh, I wonder.
-She's both leather and lace, I think.
He's got leather cowboy boots, though.
-Cara, you were, like, so perfect.
I love when you were whispering, I love when you belted
a little bit more. -Thank you.
-And it just relaxed me.
Jay, the power of your voice and the raspiness,
it was just a little more compelling to me,
so I would pick Jay.
-Okay. Alright. -Yeah.
-Wow. -Thank you.
-Cara, your voice is just hypnotic.
It's so easy to get wrapped up in what you do, and I did.
You know what's funny is I feel like
Jay has the more Stevie Nicks approach to his vocal,
and you definitely stepped into that role.
And, man, it sounded good.
I think I'd be going with Jay on this one, also.
-Oh, my gosh. Thank you.
-Thank you. -Jay!
-Guys, that was really, really beautiful.
It relaxed me, too.
It was like I just had a little cocktail or something.
-Want a drink of mine? -Yeah, that'd be great.
[ Laughter ]
Cara, your voice is really gentle
and, like, delicate and beautiful.
And then there was a moment where I saw you kind of look
at her and smile, and you seemed like you
had been doing this for a really, really long time.
And that gives that star quality.
Your voice just, like, made me feel more.
-Thank you. -Thank you, coaches.
Alright, Gwen, tough decision here.
Give us some thoughts on the battle first.
-One of the things that Jay needed to work on --
his voice is so powerful that it was coming out too much.
And I'm so proud of you because you took the advice,
and it just went to another level.
Cara, your voice is just so soothing
and there's a confidence that has to come behind that.
I'm having a really hard time with this decision right now
because you're two of my favorite people on the team.
-Gwen, a near-impossible decision here,
but the time has come.
Who is the winner of this battle?
-My gosh, you guys. This is so hard.
-Oof, girl. Oof!
[ Dramatic music plays ]
-Alright, in this moment, this is really difficult...
...but the winner of this battle...
is Cara.
[ Cheers and applause ] -Thank you.
-That was tough. -Really, really hard.
-Congratulations!
-I picked Cara because to be that effortless
when you sing in a live setting is really hard to do,
and she's very in tune with her art
when she's singing.
-You're amazing.
As far as my taste goes,
those are kind of like my favorite kind of singers.
-Alright, coaches, let me remind you that Jay is available
to steal or save.
Jay, anything you want to say to Gwen?
-Thank you. I came here to represent my family
and my mother who passed away from Alzheimer's.
And it will not stop here,
so thank you for the opportunity.
-Give it up one more time for Jay Allen, ladies and gentlemen!
-This was just a really challenging one for me
because Jay, he was humble.
He was grateful. He was willing to try anything.
And he really does have such an amazing voice
that can do so many different things.
-Beautiful, Jay. That was great.
-Whoa! Jay!
Come on back!
-I knew it!
-Your work is not done yet!
-I knew it!
[ Cheers and applause ]
-That was close.
-He was like an inch from the no-go zone.
-He was an inch from being at Burbank Airport.
[ Laughter ] -I was ready.
-Well, honestly, that was such a hard one for me.
And it was so confusing 'cause I knew
that I wanted to save Jay --
-What if somebody steals Jay?
-No! -Oh, no!
-No! No!
-That was Blake Shelton using his one and only steal!
-Yay!
-It's a save against a steal...
-Trouble in paradise! -No! No!
-...between husband and wife.
-Listen to me! I love you!
I love you!
What a jerk!
-Trouble in paradise. -Jay Allen may cause
a celebrity divorce. [ Laughter ]
My goodness. -Oh, my gosh.
-Blake, way to just wait. Why did you wait?
-I was gonna use my steal, I was just waiting
for the perfect moment for a good zinger right there.
"Wait till she says some-- Oh, that'll be funny."
-The "what if" -- the "what if" was good.
-Gwen, are you mad at him?
-I'm -- I'm shaking. I'm -- Yes, I'm so mad!
-Will this anger carry off into the home?
-Stop it!
What are you doing right now, Carson?
-Your coach wants you to remain working with her.
You have the option now and the power to switch teams.
-Can I say something? -Please do.
-[ Laughing ] Yeah. -Gosh!
-Please do.
-Before you get me divorced?
-You did that to yourself. -Yeah.
I just wanted to confirm the fact you're a great singer
and, damn it, I had a steal, so I hit my button.
That's what it comes down to.
-I wasn't ever gonna let you go home.
I was always gonna press my button for you.
-She almost monkeyed around too long and you were
past the point of no return. -That was just for drama.
-Who doesn't love a little bit of drama, though?
-You were being dramatic, too.
-This is hard. [ Laughter ]
-Alright, Jay, you can stay on Team Gwen
or you can switch gears and go over to Team Blake.
What's it gonna be?
[ Audience shouting ]
-Oh, my gosh.
-Whew!
[ Dramatic music plays ]
-Come on, Jay!
-I've been in Nashville for almost 10 years.
Blake Shelton is a legend.
I see your face everywhere.
-And you're tired of it. -I'm sick and tired of it.
[ Laughter ]
But, I'm in the country music business,
and you are country music.
-[ Sobbing ] Oh, my God! -Gwen...
please forgive me,
but I think I'm gonna go with your husband.
-Whoa!
-Jay Allen! -I stole him!
-It worked! -Oh, my God!
-It worked! -Ohh!
-[ Shouting indistinctly ]
Oh, my God!
My actual husband stabs me in the back.
Blake is definitely gonna pay for that later.
-That was so mean! -I didn't see that coming.
Whoo!
-You know, it's very rare, I think, probably to go up
against your wife in a competition.
But I am the country guy on this show.
I tried to get Jay Allen in the blind auditions.
-You're in trouble, Blake Shelton.
-But the good news is, I got Jay.
The bad news is we may have to go
through some marriage counseling.

This is my show.
-It took a twist.
