‘Astonishing!’ Nicole said.

“You’re an artist,” Jenny said.
Mantis’ additional clue turned out to be a pair of sunglasses labeled “true story.”

For the final battle royale, Dandelion and Mantis sang head-to-head (I’ve Got) a Golden Ticket, a Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory song.
“Dandelion, your voice was epic,” Jenny said. “It’s such a hassle.”
“They both know exactly what they’re doing there,” Nicole said.
After the votes were tabulated, Dandelion was declared the winner and advanced in the competition. The crowd cheered for Mantis to unmask.
But right before the Mantis was about to unmask, Robin ran over and rang the Keep It On bell to save him.
“From one man to another, Mantis,” Robin said.
“You live to sing another day, Mantis,” Nick said.
The crowd chanted ‘ding dong keep it on’.
“Wow, it’s because you like the clothing choices, right,” Mantis said.
“No, honestly, it was your song choices,” Robin said. “The first song, Old Time Rock ‘N Roll, was literally my dad’s favorite song. He did it at home at parties. That song touched my heart. And then your performance in the Battle Royal was even stronger. My 12-year-old son played Charlie in Willy Wonka’s play, and he sang that song on stage just a few months ago. So I can’t let you go if you sing my father’s song and my son’s song.’
The Masked Singer returns on Fox next Wednesday.
