(eighties music plays)
Ken jeong: Welcome back to america's
Favorite guessing game: I can see your voice!
Tonight we open the archives of musical history
In decades night. Using your detective skills...
Use your discernment, okay?
Ken: ..Can you spot who are good singers...
Frankie: Everything matched perfectly!
Ken: ..And who are bad singers...
Melissa: We're just living in a world of lies!
Ken: ..Without ever hearing them sing a note?
I mean, after that, I'm confused!
Ken: Helping our contestant with their years of expertise are...
Cheryl hines! Cheryl: This is a mystery.
Ken: Romeo!
Romeo: I come in peace!
Ken: Melissa peterman!
I decided to get bangs after a bottle of cabernet.
Ken: Frankie muniz!
I can picture him tearing it up!
Ken: And tonight, our very own adrienne bailon-houghton
Will be our musical superstar. Adrienne: This is my jam!
Ken: It all comes down
To the life-changing $100,000 decision.
Ken: Do you wanna risk it all? Adrienne: Oh my god!
I'm lockin' it in!
(theme tune)
(audience cheers and applauds)
Ken: Welcome to another super sensational episode
Of america's favorite guessing game, I can see your...
(everyone joins in) voice!
Ken: And tonight, we're gonna press
That big, fat rewind button
On I can see your voice: Through the decades!
(melody of 'take on me' by a-ha) adrienne: Let's do it!
Ken: We have a special treat for you tonight.
Dueting with our last secret voice at the end of the show,
It's our very own adrienne bailon-houghton!
(cheering and applause)
Ken: Adrienne, what's your favorite decade for music?
So I'm excited to see what they're bringing for the '80s.
Ken: I love the '80s. I wouldn't know. I mean, I'm 23 years old.
Now let's meet tonight's contestant.
It's linda from roscommon, michigan!
(audience cheers and applauds)
Linda, tell us about yourself. What do you do for a living?
I am 69 years old. (cheers from audience)
I'm retired and I'm so excited
I can't stand it!
(indistinct)
And who do you have supporting you tonight?
I have the best granddaughter
In the entire nation. That's hunter.
(melissa whoops)
If you were to win $100,000
What would you do with all that cash?
I want some money in my bank account.
(laughter)
'cos girls, when they're seniors, need money.
(audience cheers and applauds)
Linda: But the first thing that I'm going to do
Is to take care of my husband of 51 years.
Ken: Fifty-one years! Linda: My husband was diagnosed
With third stage cancer last year...
Adrienne: So sorry.
Linda: ..So that's my number one priority, is my man!
We love you, linda! Romeo: We got you
As a spouse of a cancer survivor myself,
I know all too well. I am here with you on every level.
(applause)
So now let's get the investigation going
And reveal tonight's secret voices.
Ken: Number one. She's as comfortable on the mic
As she is wrestling a 30-pound catfish.
This vocal powerhouse has opened for
The likes of hank williams jr and trace adkins.
Tonight, she is angling to reel you in.
Representing the 2000s, it's fisherman!
Adrienne: I believe it!
Ken: Number two. When he's not scaring the bejesus
Out of theme park goers, he's performing in musicals
Such as in the heights and the addams family musical.
Let's hope it's just his voice that's infectious, am I right?!
Representing the 1990s, it's theme park zombie!
Romeo: When they're screaming "oooh",
You gotta have a little somethin'!
Ken: Number three. When he's not on a demolition job site,
He's busy building memories for newlyweds
As a lead singer of a band that has performed at
Over 200 weddings. Tonight, he's gonna bulldoze the competition.
Representing the 1980s, it's construction worker!
Melissa: What's in that toolbox?!
Ken: Number four. This uber-talented driver doesn't
Just have a great selection of mints and phone chargers -
After backing for pastor mike jr.
At the 2022 bet stellar music awards, he's about to arrive!
Buckle up for a five-star ride.
Representing the 1970s, it's driver!
Frankie: I can picture him tearing it up.
Ken: Number five. She's a top saleswoman for a mobile carrier
But now she's getting great reception in the world
Of jingles as the voice of the new klondike bar commercials.
Put her in your contacts 'cos she's about to blow up!
Representing the 1960s, it's mobile sales associate,
Cheryl: I dunno about the voice of the klondike bar but okay!
Ken: Number six. When he's not raising a racket on the court,
He's serving up sweet melodies and has released two albums
With his band the highway boys which once opened up
For huey lewis and the news!
Representing the 1950s, it's pickleball player!
Adrienne: I think he's going to be the wild card.
Ken: Let's get a quick recap of the rules.
There are six secret voices up on that stage
But you'll never know how many are good singers
And how many are bad. In the first five rounds,
You will use clues, logic and intuition
To eliminate the bad singers. If they're a good singer,
Everything you hear will be true.
But if they're a bad singer, anything could be a lie.
(siren sounds) for each correct guess,
You will earn $15,000.
Your goal is to eliminate all the bad singers
So that the last one standing is a good singer
Because that secret voice will be dueting
With adrienne bailon-houghton.
And if they're a good singer, you could win $100,000.
(cheering and applause)
Ken: Now, linda, let's get into our first
Decades night lip sync showdown.
(melissa groans nervously) ken: And as usual,
The secret voices will perform two at a time
And you get to choose which two voices you want to see.
But at the end of each round,
You have to eliminate one of them.
And, linda, remember, to win $15,000 in this round,
Bad is good... (everyone joins in) good is bad!
I want to hear construction worker.
He's not holding his mic right. He looks like he's tired.
When you're tired, you can't sing.
So I think he's a bad singer.
Who would you like to see them share the stage with?
Mobile sales associate.
Linda: She intrigues me.
I think she's a good singer. Cheryl: Oh.
Get ready for your first two lip syncers.
Representing the 1960s, it's mobile sales associate.
And representing the 1980s, construction worker.

Melissa: I think he can. (music ends)
(audience cheers and applauds) melissa: Oh!
Panel, what clues did you pick up on? Let's start with cheryl.
The mobile sales associate,
I felt like she started singing
Before the microphone got to her
So I'm going to say she's a bad singer.
Her breaths were on. Melissa: Okay.
Quick breaths to continue the next note -
She did right on the right spot. I think she's a good singer.
I think you're safe 'cos I honestly think
You've got two bad singers right here.
That's my kinda woman! (laughter)
The mobile sales associate hit her mouth with the mic -
That showed that maybe she's not that comfortable holding a mic
But if you had to choose between the two, I'd lean more
That the construction worker is a good singer.
Adrienne: He wasn't giving me usher performing in vegas
But it was giving wedding singer.
(applause) melissa: Construction worker -
First of all, I felt like he was singing just to me
And I didn't want him to stop. So I think he is a good singer.
I don't know. Maybe he's just a good actor
But his stage presence - the construction worker -
That's what performers do so I think he's a good singer.
Ken: Linda? I got it!
(laughter)
(dramatic music)
The mobile sales associate,
The way she lip-synced was not going with the song.
The construction worker,
He was into the song. He's a good singer.
Romeo: Yeah.
I think that the mobile sales associate
Is a bad singer.
I am lockin' it in right...
Now!
Romeo: Yeah! Adrienne: Bam!

Growing up, I was kind of shy,
And this was a opportunity to overcome that
And show my children that you could do anything you want.
Melissa: Yes! Frankie: Yeah!
Ken: Give it up for mobile sales associate!
(melissa cheering) ken: Linda, you just made
$15,000! Melissa: Yay! Linda!
Ken: Stay right here on fox -
More of america's favorite guessing game,
I can see your voice: Through the decades, after this break.
Linda: If this continues, y'all gonna see me on the floor.
Adrienne: Yes! (frankie laughing)
(theme tune)
Welcome back to I can see your voice: Through the decades.
(melody of 'take on me' by a-ha)
Ken: Linda, before the break,
You eliminated mobile sales associate and made $15,000...
(audience cheers and applauds) ..But you still have four
Remaining secret voices left to choose from.
Remember, your goal is to find as many bad singers as you can
Because if the last one standing is a good singer,
You could win $100,000.
(audience cheers and applauds)
It's time for our second lip sync showdown.
I want to see the driver...
..Because he's just looking straight ahead at my spirit.
I think driver is a good singer.
Ooh!
And theme park zombie...
..Because I'm not certain as to whether he is a good singer
And I want to see what he looks like with his body movement.
Ken: Representing the 1970s, let's check out driver...
..And representing the 1990s, theme park zombie.

Ken: Panel, who do you think she should choose?
I think that the driver had the best performance.
It took me a minute to realize he was lip-syncing
So I'm going to stick with that, 100% a good singer.
Melissa: I agree. He did that thing where they
Touch their diaphragm. For me, it's usually like I got gas.
(laughter) melissa: It looked like he knew
What he was doing. He is a good singer.
Okay, the driver, is it possible
That he's an amazing performer, and a bad singer?
Cheryl: I think that maybe he's fooling us.
I think he might be a bad singer and then, theme park zombie -
A voice came out that I wasn't expecting so
I think that was his real voice. I think he's a good singer.
(applause)
We've been fooled time and time again.
The zombie wasn't giving what it took to get that vocal out.
Adrienne: It's either he's just a very cool, laid-back performer
Or he just doesn't know what it takes to get that note out.
I don't think he's a good singer.
I'm looking at the voice control.
Romeo: He wasn't really hitting those notes.
I actually think he's a bad singer.
Linda? (dramatic sound effects)
Linda: Theme park zombie,
I watched the lyrics that were coming out of his mouth.
They did not match. But the driver, on the other hand,
His mouth was going. That mic was going.
Linda: I think that theme park zombie
Is a bad singer...
(fired up) ..And I'm going for it right now!
(audience cheers and applauds)
Ken: Now, theme park zombie, let's...
(everyone joins in) see your voice!
Romeo: Nervous about this one. Cheryl: I know!

Ken: Wow! Theme park zombie,
Please tell us, who are you really?
My name is tristan, and I am a theme park zombie.
Ken: So, that part about in the heights was all true?
I understudied both benny and usnavi, the two male leads.
Ken and melissa: Wow!
And what made you want to do the show?
Watching the show, there were such good characters
So I thought, "what an amazing opportunity."
Ken: Give it up for tristan! Adrienne: My bad! Oh my god.
Linda, you've eliminated one good singer and one bad singer,
Meaning you have $15,000 still!
More of america's favorite guessing game,
I can see your voice: Through the decades, after this break.
Romeo: Who knew a zombie could sing that good?!
Frankie: Not even a good singer, a phenomenal singer!
(theme tune)
Welcome back to I can see your voice: Through the decades!
(melody of 'take on me' by a-ha) melissa: Ooh!
Linda, you've eliminated one good singer and one bad singer,
And have a total of $15,000.
It's time for our third and final lip sync showdown.
Representing the 2000s, it's fisherman.
And representing the 1950s -
Pickleball player.

I can't wait to get to my panel. (laughter)
Melissa: Not to namedrop but I know kristin chenoweth
And she's a tiny little package,
And has the biggest powerful voice to, like, come out of it.
And I think fisherman might be one of those.
I think she's a good singer.
Adrienne: I agree.
I think she's got this big voice that's gonna shock all of us -
I think she's a good singer.
I'm a drummer, and she was keeping time
With her foot, like, perfectly.
And I feel like only someone who is involved in music
Would be able to do that. So I think she's a good singer.
Even though I'm likin' fisherman and that stance, I'm like,
"is she acting?" seeing pickleball player,
I think he's here for a good time
So I'm gonna say they're both not good singers.
(audience sighs in surprise)
Pickleball player, I didn't feel the music
Actually syncing up with his voice, his movements
So I think he's a bad singer.
I mean, first he throws a visor on the floor -
That takes guts to throw that visor down like that!
It takes pickle guts! (laughter)
Melissa: He looks like he's been on tour,
And I think he's a good singer. (applause)
Linda? (dramatic sound effects)
Linda: Fisherman... I was more convinced
That she was a better singer...
Linda: I just... It's a vibe that I'm getting.
Pickleball player couldn't hold the note
So I'm thinkin' pickleball player is a bad singer.
Linda: Pickleball player gotta go!
Ken: Now, pickleball player, let's...
(everyone joins in) see your voice!
Okay, let's see it.
Melissa: I feel so nervous!

Ken: Pickleball player! What is your real name?
I'm tom. Tom young.
And what made you want to do the show, tom?
You know, I just recently retired, like linda,
And I see all these music shows on tv and I go,
"I must be the only guy in america that can't sing."
So then I saw this show and I went, "this is for me!"
Ken: Give it up for pickleball player!
Linda, you've eliminated one good singer and two bad singers,
Meaning your total is $30,000.
But we're only halfway there.
Let's win you more money.
This is I can see your voice: Through the decades!
Melissa: Woo!
Linda: We did that! Ken: We did it.
Linda: We did that thing!
(theme tune)
Welcome back to I can see your voice.
Alright, linda, we are three down, three to go,
And none of us know how many good and how many are bad
So you've got to tread carefully if you're gonna end up
With a good one at the end and win that $100,000.
Yes!
Please remind us what you're playing for.
I am playing for my husband
Of 51 lovely years. (applause)
(voice breaking) with his cancer treatment, I told him
That I would take him on a trip to Italy.
(audience sighs sympathetically)
We feel the love. We love you.
Adrienne: I love her! Ken: Alright, linda,
It's the part of the show where I get to stare into a camera
And scream unlock my life!
But you know we like to mix it up here on I can see your voice
So this week, we're playing unsolved voices.
Our I can see your voice detectives
Have been collecting evidence, taking notes
And scrubbing social media for clues to help identify
If our secret voices are a good or bad singer.
They've left their office filled with their findings,
And now you have one minute to use a joystick and camera
And scan the entire room to help you clear up
This great unsolved mystery. Can they sing or not?
But just like always,
You'll only get to investigate one secret voice.
Remember, if it's a good singer,
Then all those clues will be 100% reliable
But if the singer is bad,
Then that evidence will be filled with red herrings galore.
(tense music) linda: Driver is a good singer.
Oh, okay!
Linda: 'cos that's all they do all day, is listen to music.
(laughter) construction worker is tired,
And if he's a real construction worker,
You don't get tired, buddy! No! Bad!
(laughter)
Linda: I'm not certain about the fisherman anymore.
I want to investigate fisherman.
Ken: Okay.
Let's play unlock my life: Unsolved voices!
Ken: Okay, here we are. The joystick takes you around.
Linda: Okay. Okay. Zoom in. Adrienne: I see cowboy boots.
Romeo: Oh, that book - zoom in on that book.
Linda: Okay. Romeo: That's her journal!
Adrienne: Oh, those are lyrics. Those are song lyrics.
Ken: Now, who is that? Melissa: Her with trace adkins?
Frankie: That's trace, isn't it? Melissa: That's trace!
Frankie: Maybe not but it's a recording studio.
Adrienne: She's in the studio with somebody.
Romeo: Good job, linda. Linda: Something going on there.
Romeo: She caught a fish! Cheryl: It's not a catfish!
Romeo: Oh! She got a guitar! Frankie: She's playing a show.
That's a lot of instruments. Linda: Oh... Boy.
Melissa: Let's go closer to see what's on the computer screen.
Romeo: Oh, wow! Oh, whoa. Who is that?
Frankie: A performance of hers. Cheryl: Maybe she's only--
A musician, and not a singer!
Cheryl: But there's a microphone.
Ken: Wow! So, guys, was any of that true?
So we technically didn't see any proof of her actually singing,
Except for the picture where she has the guitar in the yellow.
Just because you can play the guitar,
That doesn't mean you can sing. I actually think the fisherman
Is now a bad singer.
I like that any time that she was with the guitar
But didn't have a microphone in front of her,
It still seemed like she was performing for people
So I think she's a good singer.
But I'm like, is she acting?
My gut feeling told me that she wasn't a actual good singer.
I didn't believe it. (applause)
You're right. We're just living in a world of lies.
But I'm going to say, they don't let just anybody
Into a recording studio. Um... I've learned that the hard way.
(laughter)
So I do think that the fisherman is a good singer.
I have to agree. There were so many photos of her
Around music, playing music, so I believe
That she is a good singer.
(applause) ken: Linda?
Adrienne: Oh god. Melissa: Oh god.
Linda: When I look at the driver...
And I look at fisherman, I am torn
But I think they're both good singers.
So I think the construction worker is a bad singer.
(tense music)
Ken: Lock it in. Linda: Lockin' in in!
(audience cheers and applauds)
Okay, construction worker, let's...
(everyone joins in) see your voice!

Romeo: So bad but so good! (music ends)
(audience cheers and applauds) romeo: Yeah!
Linda: Yay! Adrienne: Phenomenal!
Ken: So, was any of that true? You don't really
Sing at weddings, do you? (laughter)
My name is demitrius, and I do not sing at weddings
But I do go to weddings and I do get lit there!
Give it up for the construction worker.
Ken: Linda, your total is $45,000!
Ken: Linda, we are down to our last two secret voices,
Meaning that you are two decisions away from $100,000.
This is I can see your voice, only on fox.
Panelists & audience cheering: Linda! Linda! Linda!
(theme tune)
Welcome back to I can see your voice.
Linda, you have now eliminated one good singer
And three bad singers,
And have a total of $45,000
Leaving you with two remaining secret voices to choose from -
Fisherman and driver. (applause)
And it is time for our final challenge - it's interrogation!
Linda, you're about to get the opportunity
To grill either one of our remaining secret voices
And hear their unaltered voice for the first time.
You'll get 30 seconds to ask them whatever you want
But then you have to eliminate one of them.
Fisherman... (groans doubtfully) ..I saw her last time.
I want to do driver. I believe in him.
I just want to solidify what I felt,
That he is a good singer.
(applause)
Ken: Linda, your 30 seconds
Starts in three, two, one... Go.
Linda: What is your pre-performance ritual?
Driver: Uh, a quiet room, a hot tea and prayer.
Do you write your own music? Driver: Absolutely.
What is your favorite venue to perform at?
Driver: Back home, it's called the stockton hope arena.
Linda: What made you want to become a singer?
My mother. I want to do everything she does.
What are you working on now? Driver: Releasing a gospel ep.
What is your favorite decade of music?
The '70s.
(applause) ken: Panel, what do you think?
I feel like even his talking voice was smooth
- A slight rasp to it, very similar to the vocal we heard -
And I feel confident that the driver is a good singer.
(applause) I'm an actor but I'm not
A good enough liar to come up with those answers that quickly.
Melissa: Yep. I think he is a good singer.
So we learned in the beginning that he sang backup
For pastor mike so it checks out that he's doing a gospel ep.
I believe that the driver is a good singer.
Woo!
After hearing his voice, I was convinced with his answers
That it matched the singing voice.
I think he's a good singer.
Cheryl: So if it's a voice match-up, they did a good job
Because it does sound like the voice that we heard
But this show likes to trick us.
(laughter)
I think he's a bad singer. (applause)
Ken: Okay, linda, it is time to make a decision.
(dramatic sound effects)
Boy, is this hard!
I think that the driver is a good singer,
And I think that the fisherman is a good singer.
But I listened to my panel,
So I got to go with the fisherman being eliminated.
Linda: You got to go! (audience cheers and applauds)
Ken: Get ready, driver,
'cos you're about to duet with adrienne bailon-houghton!
(adrienne yells playfully) ken: Fisherman, let's...
(everyone joins in) see your voice!
Right, she got her guitar. Cheryl: Oh, no!
I'm literally shaking.

Romeo: Oh?! Why'd you wanna do the show?
I wanted to show y'all that I can reel y'all in
With my big voice and that I'm tiny and mighty.
Yes! You are!
Okay, so you've really shared the stage with trace adkins?
I have indeed, and that was one of the highlights of my career.
(audience cheers and applauds) cheryl: That's so great.
Give it up for fisherman!
Ken: Linda, we are down to our last secret voice,
And if that secret voice is a good singer,
You could be taking home $100,000.
You need to make the biggest decision of your life.
After the break. This is I can see your voice:
..Through the decades. Melissa: No!
Adrienne: I'm concerned. I'm terrified and exhilarated.
(theme tune)
Welcome back to I can see your voice: Through the decades.
Ken: Linda, all game long,
You've been trying to find and eliminate the bad singers
So that a good singer is left standing up there to duet
With tonight's musical superstar adrienne bailon-houghton.
(applause)
And so now, for the first time in the game,
You're actually hoping driver is a good singer.
(dramatic sound effects)
Linda, you can either walk away with the $45,000 or...
You can play on and if driver turns out to be a good singer,
Your winnings will shoot up to $100,000.
However, if you get it wrong, you'll go home with nothing.
Panel, what decision do you think linda should make?
(cheryl exhales sharply)
I think when we saw him lip-sync, he came to life.
However, there's something inside me that's saying
He is a performer but he's not a singer...
..And I would not risk it.
From the moment I saw driver, I said "good singer".
That said, I am not a risk taker.
Take the money. It's guaranteed.
(inaudible)
If you take that risk, you get $100,000.
Romeo: My gut is telling me he's a good singer
So if I was you, I'm going with this 100,000.
Linda, with $45,000, it'd be like a trip
For you and your man. I would say keep the $45,000.
(tense music...)
I always play it pretty conservative here
But... Will you feel terrible,
Like you didn't take the chance when you had it to win $100,000?
I kind of want to say go for it!
Ken: Okay, linda...
(audience cheers encouragingly, and applauds...)
Nothing would please me more than to gamble.
Oh my god!
But my husband supersedes any thing
On this earth... (voice breaking)
..And because I love him...
..I don't gamble with our relationship.
Linda: So I'm going to make the decision...
I'm going to keep my $45,000
And we're going to have memories the rest of our life.
Romeo: That's amazing!
(audience cheers and applauds wildly)
(audience chanting supportively) linda! Linda! Linda!
So, linda, you've won $45,000...
..But I'm sure you and america would love to find out
What would have happened had you played on.
Adrienne, please go and join driver on the stage of truth
For the grand duet finale. (applause)
So, linda, if driver is a good singer,
You would have taken home $100,000.
But if he's a bad singer,
Then you made the right choice because your money is safe.
Ken: Please put your hands together
For adrienne bailon-houghton and driver.

Romeo: Forty-five thousand dollars richer, baby!
Ken: Linda, you did it! Linda: Oh my god!
I am so glad you could not sing! (laughs)
(emotional) and I'm gonna take
The man that I love more than air on a beautiful trip.
(wild cheering and applause)
Driver, who are you?
My name is lem, and I am a driver.
So, was any of that true otherwise?
No, I didn't sing background for pastor mike.
I just watched it on tv, like everybody else!
Ken: Give it up for driver! Frankie: Man!
Thank you, cheryl hines. Thank you, romeo.
Thank you, melissa peterman. Thank you, frankie muniz.
Thank you to our very own adrienne bailon-houghton.
Most importantly, thank you, linda,
And thank you all for watching. Goodnight, everybody.
