Carson is in Sherman Oaks to meet Will Champlin (30; Reseda, CA), who's hoping to follow in his father's footsteps. His father... Bill Champlin of Chicago. The band, not the city. He thinks that this is his time, especially with a supportive wife and daughter. Time for the son to break from the father with our opening performance... "Not Over You" by Gavin DeGraw. And as soon as he gets into the breakdown, BLAKE DOWN! And then ADAM... and then CEE LO... But what is Will's choice? It is... fellow Angeleno ADAM.

Macey Estes (18. Greenwood, IN) grew up shy to the point of singing and dancing in her room, unlike her musical family. She was a show-choir veteran, but she wants to do a little hip-hop. In fact, she wrote a rap about being on the show. Will we hear it? Later, because she's singing "The Way" by Ariana Grande. And by the time she reeks of desperation, it turns into... no way.

Stephanie Anne Johnson (29, Tacoma, WA) grew up with a lot of blues, gospel, classic rock, and soul. She's also a classically trained vocalist, having majored in it during college. After a stint in day-care, she ended up being a cruise ship singer in Alaska. She's hoping to dry-dock in SoCal with "Black Horse and a Cherry Tree" from KT Tunstall. Christina & Cee Lo want to take a ride. Trivia: Vicki Martinez from season 1 went to high school with Stephanie Anne. But who will go to the head of the class today? Stephanie Anne picks... CHRISTINA.

Sam Cerniglia (25; Chicago) works for Groupon by day, jams with a band by night. Family supports both of those efforts. His younger sister has cystic fibrosis, while his older sister has Batten's Disease, a rare, fatal neurodegenerative disorder characterized by vision problems, seizures, and other neural malfunctions. Ultimately the patient will become blind, bedridden, and demented. To put it simply... her brain is shrinking. Get a chair to turn for her. His selection is "It's a Beautiful Day" by Michael Buble. Blake and Cee-Lo make it an even MORE beautiful day for Sam, as he's in. But who will be the coach of import? Should be noted that Blake is a big fan of Michael's. He'll also be a big fan of Sam's because BLAKE wins this one.

Jennifer Newberry (32; Seattle) has traveled a long way to get to this stage. She's originally from Sweden. Her father was an American exchange student in Sweden when he met her mom. And that's the end of the series. Kidding. She has since lived abroad with her mom. She connects to America through music, and 11 years ago, she took the risk and emigrated to the States full time. Will her American dream come true tonight with "Locked Out of Heaven" by Bruno Mars? Nope. She's locked out of this round.

We begin hour 2 with James Irwin (31; St. Louis), returning from last year after failing to turn a chair with his rendition of "The Man That Can't Be Moved". Back then, it was a second chance at music. Tonight, it's a second chance at a chair. And this time, he will have the support of his young son (if you remember, he lost both twin daughters 10 minutes after their birth). He hopes he won't be "Losing My Religion" by REM. He won't. He's gone from zero chairs to FOUR. This is the FIRST time that has ever happened, but who will be the coach to be a part of Voice history? It will be... one of the two that passed him up the first time. Welcome to Team ADAM!

Olivia Henken (25; Louisville, KY) has been singing since she was 4, and it was all on the stage. She has gone from singing contest to singing contest, but has never made that step. And my god is she blond and pink. When she's not singing or pink... she's working at a tax office. Will this be the first step in a grand journey? She sings "Two Black Cadillacs" by Carrie Underwood... who she looks a lot like. As Christina finds out first hand. She's in. It's looking like she's going to .. NOPE, HERE COMES CEE LO! Nothing from Blake. Interesting. Olivia's in with a chance. Christina wants to play with Blake, while Cee Lo wants to "challenge" her... meaning, of course, not sing as much country as she wants. I sense a steal coming in the Battle Rounds, but for now, she belongs to... CHRISTINA!

Jason Kertson (16; Seattle) is a troublemaker. In fact, he learned how to play the guitar when he was grounded for three weeks. His special talent: playing two guitars at once. He put it up on YouTube, and Megadeth got back to him. Hopefully he won't mega-die on stage once he starts with "Lips of an Angel" by Hinder. It looks like he's going to go back to playing two guitars at once on YouTube.

R Anthony (33; Tampa) was the quiet kid until he was part of a gospel trio. After his wife became pregnant, he had to put the singing on hold. He's hoping to get back out there on "The Voice" with a good performance on The Script's "Hall of Fame". Christina wants to be inducted. And at the last second... so does Cee-Lo! No one's getting away with anything tonight! No, sir! And Cee-Lo's going to really be glad he did. CEE LO adds one.  He would also add Keaira Lashae to his ranks.

Also adding...

CHRISTINA: Amber Nicole
BLAKE: Emily Randolph

Justin Chain (23; Fort Payne, AL) hopes to link up with a coach with his homespun country twang. He never had the money for a demo, so he concentrated on sports. In fact, he was THIS close to a shot at Alabama, but he was involved in a motorcycle accident with an SUV. After three months recovering from an accident that should have by all accounts taken his life, he's a winner in my book, but now it's all about the stage and his vocal on "She's Country" by Jason Aldean. Blake's calling dibs right now. ... and he gets his man! Blake calls him "a stud".

So right before our final entry, let's play catchup...

Last up tonight, it's single mother Ashley DuBose (23; St. Paul, MN), whose childhood dream of music was handed down by her mother. She's a geek. As in certified IT. She did finish school and is now able to pursue music. She's hoping for a better life for her daughter. Closing out the show, we get to hear her shine on Rihanna's "Diamonds". ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR CHAIRS! And Cee-Lo's enjoying the show. She thought she knew who she wanted... but ends up going with ADAM. She is a favorite to win, but then again, that's what they said about Judith Hill.

Two weeks down, one week to go, and Christina is down to her final pick.
