Yes!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Elizabeth: Spectacular prizes...
-Stop! -It's Dollywood!
Elizabeth: India!
Australia. We're going to Egypt!
It's a car!
You just won a Cadillac!
[ Indistinct shouting ]
Oh, my God.
That's a lot of cheese.
50,000!
$75,000!
Elizabeth: $100,000!
"Press Your Luck" is the best game on television.
Tonight, these three players are after big bucks,
but they'll have to avoid the Whammy,
as they play the most exciting game of their lives.
From Television City in Hollywood,
it's time to press...your...luck!
And now here's the host of "Press Your Luck,"
Elizabeth Banks!
[ Cheers and applause ]
♪♪
Welcome to "Press Your Luck,"
the game where we turn big dreams into big bucks.
Let's meet our three players.
[ Cheers and applause ]
He's a special education teacher from Payson, Arizona.
Say hello to Philip.
Hi, Elizabeth.
A kindergarten teacher from Springfield, Tennessee,
it's Tanya.
Hey, y'all!
And finally, a pastor from Tempe, Arizona.
Please welcome Chara.
Hi, Elizabeth.
Good luck to all three of you.
Tonight, you take on our Big Board.
It's loaded with cash and prizes.
And every time you stop the board like this --
stop! -- you add money to the bank, just like that.
Yes! The player with the most cash and prizes
in their bank at the end of Round 2 gets to keep it
and goes on to our bonus game for a shot at $1 million.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Elizabeth: First things first -- let's earn some spins.
I have three questions. Here we go.
The Backstreet Boys want it that way,
KC and the Sunshine Band know that's the way they like it,
and Journey was ready to give it to you any way you want it.
Sounds like they should take the tour bus
to what fast-food chain known for its legendary slogan,
"Have it your way"?
Chara. Burger King.
So Philip, is it Burger King, McDonald's, Subway?
-Burger King. -What do you think, Tanya?
I'm gonna say Burger King.
It is, of course, Burger King!
Philip picked up a spin, Tanya picked up a spin,
and Chara picked up three spins. Three spins, yeah!
Burger King's "Have it your way" slogan debuted in 1974,
same as me.
All right, question two.
So you wake up in Las Vegas. Your hotel suite is trashed.
You're missing a tooth. There's a white tiger.
Oh, wait, I'm just describing a bachelor-party scene
from "The Hangover." Tanya.
"The Hangover."
I'm gonna finish the question now.
But according to a recent survey in "USA Today,"
out of every four people who got married, how many said
they had no bachelor or bachelorette party at all?
Tanya said, "The Hangover."
Philip, is it "The Hangover,"
two out of four, three out of four?
-Two out of four. -What do you think, Chara?
I think it's two out of four.
Two out of four do not have them.
So Philip, you get a spin,
and Chara picked up a spin.
All right, question three, last chance to pick up the spins
to take to the Big Board.
You might feel off-kilter when you go offsides
or be gutted by a gutter ball.
And a foul could put you in a foul mood.
But what sport would you --
Philip. Uh-oh.
Bowling. [ Chuckles ]
But what sport would you be playing
if you balked at the umpire for calling a balk?
Tanya, is it bowling, baseball, soccer?
I'm gonna say soccer.
What do you think, Chara?
I'm gonna say soccer.
It is my favorite sport, America's pastime --
baseball was the answer.
I'm sorry, no spins for anybody on that one.
Philip ends with two spins,
Tanya's got a spin,
and Chara's got four spins.
Now let's see if we can turn these spins into cash...
♪ 'Cause we're going to the Big Board ♪
Let's go!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Oh, here we go. Here we go.
[ Cheering ]
We've got thousands of dollars
and spectacular prizes on our Big Board tonight.
But beware of the Whammy.
[ Sour note plays ]
You rack up four Whammies, you're out of this game.
All right, let's get to it.
We start with the player who has the fewest spins,
and that's Tanya. Yeah!
Tanya, make it count.
Let's go! Come on, stay away, Whammy.
Give me that trip to Matterhorn.
No Whammies.
And...stop!
Oh! $2,000. She's on the board.
All right, Philip, it's your turn. Take it away.
Let's go, Big Board, big bucks!
Let's go to Matterhorn, baby! Let's go.
And stop! Whoo!
$1,900.
100 bucks behind Tanya.
One more spin. Press it or pass it?
I'm gonna press my luck!
Go for it, Philip.
Let's go, big bucks. Need an extra spin.
And stop! Whoo!
Add A One! Bam!
We add that one right there. Bam. Let's go!
Philip now leads by $9,900.
All right, Chara, are you ready to take on the Big Board?
I'm ready to press my luck!
Whoo! Come on, big bucks.
Anything but a Whammy.
And stop!
-$1,500. -All right. Whoo!
All right.
All right, press your luck or pass those spins?
I'm gonna press my luck! Whoo!
Come on! Anything but a Whammy.
And stop.
$1,500. Doubled it up. All right!
$3,000. You're now in second place.
Two more spins. Press them or pass them?
I still want to go one more time, Elizabeth.
I gotta press my luck. Whoo!
One more time. Come on, Outback Steakhouse.
Anything but a Whammy.
And stop!
-$1,900. -All right.
$4,900. One more spin.
You gonna go for the big bucks
and press your luck or pass those spins?
I think I'm gonna pass it.
She wants to pass it. Philip, good luck.
Philip: Let's go, Big Board!
Let's get that backyard dunk tank, baby.
And stop!
Move two spaces! Big bucks!
Whoo! Let's go!
That is the end of Round 1.
The Big Board is just getting warmed up, and so are we.
"Press Your Luck" comes back right after this.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Welcome back to "Press Your Luck."
And before we jump into Round 2,
let's learn a little more about our contestants.
So Philip, you're from Payson, Arizona.
Tell me about yourself.
I am a special education teacher.
What a great job.
Myself, I've struggled with ADHD my whole life
and have had to figure out how to get through
the different stages of life with that.
Yeah. And so being able to help them overcome some of those
and remove some of those barriers
is just the most fulfilling thing.
So great.
And are you married?
I am married.
I'm coming up on nine years with my wife.
Nine years. Congrats.
I met her as a freshman in college,
and she gave me a shot.
And I was a dweeb back then and kind of still am.
But she's the best.
I love hearing about college sweethearts.
Well, welcome to "Press Your Luck."
Thanks, Philip. Thank you so much.
Tanya from Springfield, Tennessee.
-Yes! -Tell us about yourself.
I am a kindergarten teacher.
I've been teaching for nine years.
It is my dream.
I was created to be a schoolteacher.
I go in, and I touch these little lives.
We love teachers here.
And how long have you been a fan of "Press Your Luck"?
Oh, my gosh.
I've been watching since I was four years old.
Can you believe you're here?
No, I cannot. I'm, like, pinching myself.
[ Laughs ]
And also, I've never flown on an airplane
until two days ago.
Wow. How was your first flight?
Tell us about it.
When we took off, I had no idea what to expect.
I'm hanging onto the armrest,
and I'm shaking 'cause the plane is vibrating
and my husband says, "It's okay, honey.
It's okay, honey." And we take off,
and we're, like -- started to turn a little bit,
and I thought I was going to fall out the plane.
I mean, I was just hanging on.
But once we got in the air, it was smooth sailing.
I enjoyed it so much.
Welcome to "Press Your Luck." Thank you.
Chara from Tempe, Arizona.
Tell us about yourself.
Well, I am a pastor of 12 years with my husband.
Yeah. [ Chuckles ] Love it.
So not only do we work together as pastors,
but we're also relationship therapists.
Ooh, tell me about that.
We are known as "the hot and holy couple,"
as our aim is to help couples
keep their marriage hot and holy,
teaching couples how to be 50 shades of free and freaky,
and trying to help couples just to really enjoy
and embrace the gift of marriage and sex.
Oh, yeah, Chara!
Do you have any just sort of blanket advice
for married couples?
You had a bad day, I had a bad day,
we can get in the bed and make it a good night.
Whoo!
One more reason to watch "Press Your Luck" right there.
Advice for life. I love it.
All right, good luck to all of you.
Let's get back into the game.
It's time for Round 2.
I've got four questions this time.
Here we go.
Did you know there's a dating app for scary monsters?
I was creeping on it the other day.
Check out this guy's profile.
He's a creature of the night,
says he goes way back with Bram Stoker,
and really, really hates garlic.
Transylvania locals only.
Who is this famous count?
Tanya. Dracula.
Philip, is it Dracula, Wolfman, Pennywise?
-Dracula. -What do you think, Chara?
Dracula.
It is, of course, Count Dracula!
Philip picks up a spin.
Tanya picks up three spins.
Chara picks up a spin.
All right, question two.
Some nicknames are so good, everyone wants in on them.
Dwayne Johnson and Prudential are both known as "The Rock,"
as is what former prison in San Francisco Bay?
[ Audience groaning ]
Oh, nobody rang in. I think I know it.
That means I'll give you three answers to choose from,
and a correct answer will be worth one spin.
So Philip, is it Azkaban, Alcatraz, Sing Sing?
-Alcatraz. -What do you think, Tanya?
-I'm gonna say Alcatraz. -What do you think, Chara?
It's Alcatraz.
It is, of course, Alcatraz!
Philip picked up a spin, Tanya picked up a spin,
and Chara picked up a spin. I knew it.
Question three.
According to a 2024 sleep-doctor survey,
of office workers who regularly nap at work,
what is the most popular location
for them to take that nap?
Tanya. At their desk.
Philip, is it their desk, the bathroom, their car?
-Their car. -What do you think, Chara?
Their car. I can admit,
I have napped under the desk and in my car,
never in the bathroom.
Yeah, never in the bathroom. That's gross.
It is, in fact, the car!
Philip picked up a spin.
Tanya, so sorry.
Chara picked up a spin.
Last question in this round.
Last chance to pick up a spin to take to that Big Board.
Here we go.
Don't drop the ball on this question.
Believed to have been invented by Jonathon DeLonge in 1938,
what colorful inflatable ball
often seen near the ocean --
Tanya. The beachball.
Also inspired the dress Katy Perry wore
during her infamous Left Shark Super Bowl halftime show?
Philip, is it beachball, volleyball, Nerf ball?
-Beachball. -What do you think, Chara?
Beachball.
It is, in fact, the beachball!
So Philip picked up a spin, bringing his total to four.
Tanya picked up three spins for seven.
And Chara picked up a spin for four.
I think we need beachballs for everybody!
Come on, beachballs.
Oh, let's go! Beachballs for everyone.
Yeah!
[ Cheering ]
It's Round 2, so we're doubling the Big Bucks to $10,000.
And since we had so much fun last year -- hello.
[ Laughs ]
and since we had so much fun last year with The Big 40,
we're doing it again.
So everybody keep your eye out for the Big 50,
a mystery square worth 50 of...
something incredible.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Okay, Tanya, you have the least amount of money
in the bank, seven big spins.
You're going first. Take it away!
Yes, come on, Big Board!
No Whammies! No Whammies!
And...stop!
[ Sour note plays ] Oh, Whammy.
-Today only... -Okay.
...everything must go, including you.
[ Pop, air hissing ] Huh? Whoa!
Whoa! Uh-oh!
Aaah! Aaah!
[ Crash, boing! ]
-Okay. -So sorry.
You met the Whammy, but you still have six big spins.
That's right. That's right.
You want to build that bank back up and press your luck?
Yes, I'm pressing my luck!
Go for it.
Let's go, big bucks, no Whammies!
And...
stop!
Big Bucks!
Whoo! Oh, my gosh!
And you picked up a spin.
You are in second place.
Press your luck or pass those spins?
They would go to Philip.
There's no doubt I'm pressing my luck!
Go for it, Tanya.
Come on, big bucks!
Please, no Whammies.
And...
stop.
-$2,750. -Yeah.
$10,750 in the bank. Five more spins.
Press your luck or pass?
I'm definitely pressing my luck!
All right, let's go.
Big bucks, no Whammies, and...
stop!
The Tory Burch collection.
Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
You look very excited about this, Tanya.
I never buy designer bags. I have four children.
Well, this will be just for you.
How much is it worth for Tanya's bank?
-Whoo! -$5,000.
Yeah!
Four spins left.
I feel like I need to get a solid first place at least.
I'm gonna press my luck!
She's going for it.
Whoo! Come on, board.
Give me that Big 50 or Big Bucks.
No Whammies. No Whammies.
Stop! [ Sour note plays ]
No.
Hi-ya! Ya, ya!
Ah. Huh.
Strike first. Strike hard.
No money!
Huh? Ah! -That's okay.
That's okay. Anything can happen.
[ Boing! ]
Ooh, I'd like to chop that Whammy!
Tanya, three more spins.
Do you want to press your luck with those spins
or pass those spins?
I have no choice. I have to press my luck!
Let's go, big bucks.
Please give me those 20,000 chicken nuggets.
And...
stop.
20,000 Chicken McNuggets.
I got it! Yeah!
You got four kids, right?
All of them eat chicken nuggets.
How much are 20,000 Chicken McNuggets
worth to the bank?
$7,250.
Oh, my God.
You are now in second place.
With two spins, it's not a solid lead.
I have to press my luck!
Okay, good luck, Tanya.
Let's go, Big Board!
Give me flying lessons, a trip to Alcatraz!
No Whammies. And...
stop. [ Sour note plays ]
You're kidding me.
No! The Wham-ma-ma-ma-my.
Avast, me hearties. We're here for our booty.
Parrot: [ Squawks ] Give us your money.
[ Grunting ]
[ Cannon blasts ]
Cannonball.
[ Boing! ]
Oh, Tanya. One more spin.
If you hit the Whammy,
this game is over for you.
I need at least second place to even be considered.
I don't have any other choice but to press my luck!
Okay, good luck, Tanya.
All right, come on, Big 50.
No Whammies, no Whammies.
And...
stop!
Move Two Spaces. That's big bucks.
And you picked up another spin.
Still alive.
You're on the board. You are in second place.
What do you think?
No risk, no reward.
I'm pressing my luck.
No risk, no reward.
Come on, no Whammies! Big 50! No Whammies!
And -- oh please, God --
and stop! Okay.
$4,600, all right.
Tanya has finished spinning.
Chara's up next with her four spins,
and she will take those spins
when "Press Your Luck" continues right after this.
Come on back!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Welcome back to "Press Your Luck."
Chara, are you ready to press your luck?
I'm ready to press my luck!
Come on, give me that Fiat! Give me that Big 50!
No Whammies.
And stop!
Oh! [ Sour note plays ]
Oh, my goodness.
[ Buzzing ]
It's okay. You've still got a game.
There's still plenty to play.
It's all right. All right.
-Aah! -Hey!
[ Boing! ]
All right, that Whammy is spreading the love, Chara.
-It is, yes. -Three more spins.
I gotta go.
Come on, come on, give me that Fiat!
No more Whammies. Anything but a Whammy.
And stop!
All right. $2,250 and a spin.
Okay.
Press your luck or pass those spins?
I've gotta press my luck.
-Good luck. -All right.
Give me that Big 50.
No Whammies. And...
stop! [ Sour note plays ]
Oh, no!
Ooh, la, la! Time for me to clean up.
Ah-ah-ah-achoo!
[ Chuckles ] I'm sorry.
[ Boing! ] It's okay.
Chara... It's okay.
All right, two Whammies. Two spins.
What do you think? I gotta press my luck.
Come on, Big Board! Be good to me.
No Whammies.
No Whammies, no Whammies.
And stop!
[ Sour note plays ]
Oh, my God!
And how does that make you feel?
-[ Crying ] -Here you go.
It's just that they don't have any money!
[ Sobbing ]
[ Boing! ]
All right, Chara. This is a big decision.
Three Whammies is the danger zone.
One more Whammy, you're out of this game.
I came here to win. I gotta play.
I gotta press my luck.
Hit something big! Come on, Chara!
Let me take the lead.
I'd go to Mount Everest.
Anything except a Whammy.
And stop!
$4,750. You're on the board.
Got on the board.
Philip, are you ready to press your luck?
I'm ready to press my luck, baby!
Take it away. You have the lead.
Oh, Big Bucks, Double Your Money, The Big 50,
and stop!
-Flying lessons! -Whoo-hoo-hoo!
Holy moly!
How much is it worth for Philip's bank?
$8,600.
You now have a substantial lead. What do you think, Philip?
I'm gonna go with my gut,
and I'm gonna pass my spins.
She has to take these spins.
If you hit the Whammy, Philip is our winner.
Good luck, Tanya.
Gotta beat that Whammy three times.
All right, let's go. Let's press our luck.
No Whammies! And...
stop!
Across the Board. That's $2,000,
and you picked up a spin.
Two more times. You now trail by $11,900.
Let's go! 10,000 and a Spin. No Whammies!
And...stop!
Move Two Spaces, and it's the big bucks
and another spin. Aah! Oh, my God!
Tanya, down to this spin. You now only trail by $1,900.
If you hit the Whammy, Philip is our winner.
Good luck, Tanya. Okay.
Please no Whammies. Please no Whammies.
No Whammies. No Whammies. And...
stop!
The big bucks!
Oh, my God!
You are now in the lead,
and you have a very big decision to make.
I have a lead,
a little over $2,000.
One spin can be worth that for him.
Correct.
I'm pressing my luck!
-Whoo! -Oh, God.
What am I doing here?
She's going up against the Whammy one more time.
Take it away, Tanya!
Please, big bucks, no Whammy.
Please, no Whammies.
And...
stop!
The Big Bucks!
Aah! Oh, my God!
You are now leading by more than $12,000.
Same decision point. What do you think?
I know what my husband would be saying to me right now.
He would say take fate into your own hands.
But he's not here playing with three Whammies.
Sorry, honey.
I'm passing them over.
You want to pass the spins?
Yes.
You need $12,101 to beat Tanya.
All right, let's press our luck, baby!
Let's take the lead!
Let's go, big bucks!
Let's go, and stop!
[ Sour note plays ] The Whammy!
Dang it! I'm so sorry.
Dead or alive, I can still take your money.
[ Laughing ]
[ Dog barking ]
Man.
[ Boing! ]
Oh, Philip.
Oh, Elizabeth.
Because you hit the Whammy,
those spins have moved into your earned column.
You can do with them what you like.
What do you think?
I'm gonna press my luck!
He wants to get on the board.
Take the lead in a spin. Let's go!
Take the lead. No Whammies.
And stop!
Move One Space. You have a decision to make.
I'm gonna go $2,750 and a spin.
Okay. He wants to spin. He's taking $2,750 for the bank.
You're still in third place.
Pressing your luck or passing those spins to Tanya?
I feel like I have no choice. I'm gonna press my luck!
Go for it.
Let's go. Big bucks, baby!
Big 50! No Whammies.
And stop. $3,333.
Decision time. You are now in second place.
You can press your luck with that final spin,
or do you want to pass it to Tanya
and hope she hits the Whammy?
I think...
that I'm going to pass the spin.
He's gonna pass it.
Anything but a Whammy, you are our winner.
But if you hit the Whammy, Philip is the winner.
Here we go. It's up to this.
Okay, no Whammies.
Please, no Whammies. Anything but a Whammy, please.
And stop!
-Oh! -Oh!
Oh! It's not over.
Tanya, one spin.
You now have a decision to make.
Do you want to pass that spin to Philip?
-Passing it over. -She's passing it.
Philip, you need $32,768.
Good luck, Philip. Let's go.
If you don't get enough, Tanya is the winner.
I need to take the lead and a spin!
Take the lead and a spin!
Let's go! Take the lead!
And stop!
-[ Screams ] -He didn't do it.
Oh, my God!
Tanya!
You survived the Whammy!
Oh, my God!
You have won $38,850 in cash.
That is yours to keep, no matter what.
Sadly, Philip, Chara,
we have to say goodnight and thank you for being here.
Stay with us.
Tanya is playing for cash and prizes up to $1 million.
Come on back for more "Press Your Luck."
I'm so sorry.
[ Cheers and applause ]
That airplane ride was worth it, right?
I am shaking like a leaf.
Welcome back to "Press Your Luck."
So far tonight,
Tanya has won $38,850.
Nice!
That's some cold hard cash in the bank.
Oh, my God. This is amazing.
That's all yours to keep no matter what. Yes.
But now it is just you versus our Big Board.
And tonight, Tanya, you could go home a millionaire!
Oh, my God!
You were talking about your husband earlier
and how he would have played the game.
And he is here with us tonight, right,
along with some other supporters.
-Yes, he is. -Introduce me.
This is my handsome life partner, Eric.
He and I have a beautiful blended family.
I couldn't do what I do without him.
He is fantastic.
-Eric. -Getting me. Getting me.
She's pretty special, huh?
Yeah. Deserves everything she gets, 100%.
I'm very thankful, very thankful to have her.
And are you thankful that she didn't listen to you
when it came to playing in the front game?
We'll say that I'm very thankful
she chose the way she chose.
[ Laughter ]
And who's this? This is your sister?
This is my crazy, fun-loving partner in life, Rhonda.
Rhonda, how excited are you for your sister right now?
Oh, my gosh! Whoo-whoo-whoo-whoo!
Whoo-whoo-whoo!
So excited! I am over the moon.
And this is Mom?
This is my mom.
She taught me to be the mother and the person that I am.
And I would not be who I am without that woman right there.
Aw! Well, good luck to all of you.
And you have made it to our bonus game.
You're gonna face off against the Whammy over five rounds.
At the end of each round, you can take whatever money,
prizes are in the bank, walk away,
or stay and play on. The longer you stay in the game,
the bigger the money gets on the board.
And if you make it to our final round,
our Big Bucks Bonanza,
one spin could be worth $100,000.
Yes!
But there are still Whammies out there. Yes.
Four Whammies puts you out of the game.
You have survived the Whammy to get to this moment.
You gotta do it again. Hopefully he's done today.
That is an understatement.
If your bank in this bonus game ever reaches $500,000,
the game is over because we automatically
bump those winnings to $1 million!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Tanya, let's make you a millionaire tonight.
I want to do it. Let's do it.
All right, in this first round, Big Bucks are worth $10,000.
But there's always more than just cash on the board.
-Oh, my gosh. -We personalize prizes,
and we picked out this one just for you, Tanya.
It's a Teachers' Lounge.
Oh, my God! Oh, my God! That would be so cool!
We are souping up your teachers' lounge
with three massage chairs
so you can all relax during lunch break.
Plus, a food truck will stop by your school
once a month for the next year
to serve lunch to you and your fellow teachers.
-Oh, my God! -Good deal!
We give ourselves in the classroom
as much as we can give all day long,
and to have a few minutes just to recharge your battery
to get you through to the end of the day,
and food trucks -- oh my gosh, that would be fantastic!
That's a dream!
Yes, I have a feeling all your students
are watching you right now, Tanya.
Absolutely. Hi, guys!
All right, let's put the Teachers' Lounge up on the board.
Oh, my God. Such a cool prize.
You wanted to get something for your fellow teachers.
I wanted to reward that with a really special prize
that's just for you, Tanya. Okay.
And I'm not even gonna tell you about it.
He is.
[ Screams ]
Hey, Tanya. It's Joey McIntyre.
Thank you so much for being such a big
New Kids on the Block fan...
-Oh, my God! -...a.k.a. Blockhead.
So here's the deal about this prize.
If you win this prize,
you and three friends are gonna go not one show
but three shows in three different cities,
come backstage and meet me and the guys,
and even be a part of our pre-show huddle
before we hit the stage. Oh, my God!
So I'm nervous for you. Oh, my God!
Please, I want to meet you.
Do whatever you gotta do to win.
And of course, no Whammies.
-Oh, my God! No Whammies! -We love you.
Joey McIntyre, everybody, the New Kids on the Block!
He's my favorite one! [ Laughs ]
You're a big New Kids on the Block fan.
I'm a New Kids on the Block fan.
Have you seen them in concert before?
Once. And when they came out on stage,
I was on the first level that was up off the floor,
and I literally peed on myself.
-Okay. -I did it.
I'll admit it on national TV.
I tinkled. She's admitting it.
Well, if you win this, you get to actually meet them...

where the Big Bucks jump up to $25,000.
Oh, my. There is no way in this world
that I would walk away with no Whammies.
I'm pressing my luck!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Tanya, I'm so happy you stayed to play
because I get to put another prize on the board
picked out just for you. Here it is.
It's Cosplaying in Tokyo.
Tanya, you and a guest will spend seven nights in Tokyo,
where you'll be chauffeured to the city's
premier cosplay stores to create custom looks,
followed by a photo shoot with a professional photographer,
then visit Comic Market,
a convention celebrating all things cosplay and anime.
[ Cheers and applause ]
I have a daughter who has autism, and she is 17.
Yeah.
And she got into going to Comic-Con.
So she asked me to take her, and the first time I went,
I looked around and I was like, "What is this?"
-Comic-Con. -I mean, I was kind of --
-Everybody's dressed up. -It was wild.
-Yes. -And she's like, "Mom,
we gotta go to Comic-Con in Nashville."
That time I wore a hot-pink wig and a whole costume.
[ Cheers and applause ]
We're gonna put that up on the board,
and you are gonna play Round 2 of the bonus game
when "Press Your Luck" comes back right after this.
Don't go anywhere.
Yeah! Whoo!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Welcome back to "Press Your Luck,"

[ Boing! ]
-Tanya... -Only one.
-...the Whammy took it all. -Yes.
But the good news is, in Round 3,
we double up the Big Bucks to $50,000.
And I say right now seems a good time
to add another prize to the board!
Oh, my gosh.
Show her what it is.
An Escalade. Oh, my God!
Whoo!
-Whoa. -I mean...
This would be so amazing for my family.
This would be comfortable.
This would be great for ballgames,
carrying my son, his friends.
Oh, my gosh. Holy cow. Is this happening?
All right, put it up on the board. Yeah!
And I never let the Whammy keep a prize.
I am throwing that Teachers' Lounge...
-Thank you. -...back up on that board.

-Oh! -It's okay. It's okay.
[ Dance music plays ]
Well it's making my decision easy every time.
♪ And here we are to come and take your money away ♪
♪ You've been Whammied, baby ♪
[ Boing! ]
Boo.
-It's okay. -Oh, Tanya.
Shake it off. Shake it off.
You got zero dollars in the bank.
The Whammy took everything.
But the good news is, we are in Round 4.
Do you know how much the Big Bucks are worth now?
They're worth $75,000.
$75,000. Come on, you can get that 75,000.
Not only that, we are gonna add
one final prize to the board
that we picked out just for you.
Show her.
It's Tanya's Total Transformation.
This is money toward a total body transformation
to make you feel like a whole new woman inside and out.
And you will maintain the new you with five years
of your favorite KBP makeup, Aussie hair products,
and to celebrate, we are flying you
first-class to Hawaii.
You and your family are also going to the Caribbean.
And then you're going to Italy, Greece, and Croatia.
This is a transformation for you and a trip for the family.
-Oh, my gosh. -Are you ready?
-Man. -I have lost 120 pounds.
-Whoo, girl! -Yeah.
But I lost a kidney last year.
They had to cut a pretty bad scar on my stomach,
and it makes me feel very self-conscious.
You just want to feel on the outside
as good as I know you feel on the inside.
Absolutely. I'm like, "Is this is a dream?"
I'm pinching myself.
All right, well, you're really here, Tanya.
Oh, my gosh!
We're gonna put Tanya's Total Transformation up on the board.
Oh, my gosh.
And she is gonna play for that
when "Press Your Luck" comes back right after this.
Stay with us.
Oh, my gosh. Whoo!
Welcome back.
We're in Round 4. Yes.
The Big Bucks are now worth $75,000.
Three spins. Okay.
Whenever you're ready, take it away.
We're gonna hit it this time.
All right, stay away, Whammy!
Give me some big bucks. Give me some Cosplay in Tokyo.
No Whammies, no Whammies, no Whammies.
And stop!
$10,000!
Whoo! Yes!
And you picked up a spin.
Another opportunity to win.
Let's do it. Let's do it.
My transformation, come on, baby!
No Whammies and...
stop!
Big Bucks!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Go hug them!
-Aah! -Wow.
That's a lot of money!
Oh, my gosh! Oh, my...
Elizabeth: Tanya!
[ Cheers and applause ]
$85,000 in the bank.
That's a lot of money.
You picked up a spin.
-That million's mine. -Keep it going.
Get that million. No Whammies.
Give me New Kids! Anything but a Whammy.
And...
stop!
-Oh, my God! -Oh, my God!
You hit it again!
What?!
-Whaaaaaaat! -Oh, my God!
And you picked up another shot at it.
Make it all yours right now.
-Yes. Come on. -Come on, Tanya.
-Come on. I feel it. -Come on!
No Whammies, please, no Whammies.
Please no Whammies. No Whammies. And...
stop!
-The Teachers' Lounge! -Oh, my gosh.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Oh, my...
My friends are gonna love that.
-Whoo! -Oh, my gosh.
-She got it! -All right.
Let's remind everybody what the Teachers' Lounge is worth
to the bank.
$9,947. Oh, my gosh.
Let's get one for you now, Tanya.
Yes, yes, that's a great idea.
-Let's play! Get one for me. -Come on! Come on!
No Whammies, please, no Whammies.
Anything but a Whammy, please.
And stop!
[ Sour note plays ] Noooooo!
[ Audience groaning ]
Surf's up. Hang 10.
I got your money, and it's a wipeout!
Aaah! [ Crashes ]
[ Boing! ]
It's called "Press Your Luck" for a reason. Yeah.
I want you to defeat this Whammy.
Lose a Whammy is on the board.
-Come on, honey. -Come on, big bucks.
You got it.
Whammy, please stay away. No Whammies.
Anything but a Whammy.
No Whammies and...
stop!
$10,000. Oh, praise the Lord.
Praise the Lord. Okay.
-You did it. -Yes.
One more Whammy, and the game is over for you tonight.
So you can walk away with this 10 grand,
add that to your winnings from earlier -- ooh!
That's a nice chunk of change.
It is.
Or you can stay and press your luck
one final time in Round 5.
And if you decide to play,
the Big Bucks top out at $100,000.
And don't forget,
we are bringing back the Big Bucks
from all the previous rounds
because this is the Big Bucks Bonanza.
Every cash amount on the board is Big Bucks --
$10,000, $25,000,
$50,000... Oh, my gosh.
$75,000, which you've hit twice.
And the biggest bucks of all, $100,000.
-Oh, my gosh. -Every square is Big Bucks.
-It's amazing. -Come on, Tanya.
Do you want to take that $10,000 and walk away,
or do you want to stay and play our Big Bucks Bonanza?
I came with nothing.
I'm leaving with $38,000 no matter what.
I'm going. I'm pressing my luck! She's doing it!
-All right! -I love it.
You only have to take three spins in this round.
Okay.
Anything but a Whammy and you're going home a winner.
-Yes. -Take it away, Tanya.
Okay. Yes!
All right, come on, no Whammies.
Anything but a Whammy. Anything but a Whammy.
[ All shouting ]
And...
oh, gosh, stop!
All right! -$25,000.
And you picked up a spin.
-We'll take that. -Go for it.
-Let's go. -Come on, baby, come on.
Please give me 100 grand and a spin!
Please give me some of these prizes -- transformation.
Escalade. Anything but a Whammy.
And...
stop! [ Sour note plays ]
[ Audience groaning ]
Can you read this?
U-L-O-S-E!
[ Laughs ]
-It's okay. -That's right.
[ Boing! ]
I am so, so sorry, Tanya. That's okay.
That fourth Whammy means the game is over for you tonight.
It's okay. But as we said earlier,
you are still going home a winner, Tanya!
-Yeah! -Yes, she is.
Come on, Chris, remind everybody
what Tanya's taking home tonight. Whoo!
Congratulations, Tanya. Make some room in your luggage
'cause you're packing $38,850 in cash.
Oh, my gosh.
That's going home with you!
Oh, my gosh. That is amazing.
Thanks for watching, everybody.
We'll see you next time right here on "Press Your Luck."
Come on back.
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Good job, honey. -What a ride. What a ride!
-What a ride. -She gave it her all.
She gave it her all.
