[cheers and applause]
- I'm Michael McIntyre, and welcome to "The Wheel!"
[upbeat music]
Tonight, our celebrity experts on "The Wheel" are...
Actress Ricki Lake on Poker,
NFL great Mark Sanchez on Football,
the honorable Judge Mathis on The Law,
comedian Amber Ruffin on her favorite food, Candy,
magician Justin Willman on Magic,
and actress Tori Spelling on "Beverly Hills, 90210."
Welcome.
You are our celebrity experts.
You are here to help our contestants
win big money tonight.
- Whoo! - Yeah.
- Whoo! - Let's go big money.
- All right. We are going to have some fun tonight.
We have three contestants beneath us,
desperate to take their position on this wheel.
So let's find out who they are.
[upbeat music]
He's a business strategist from Chicago, Illinois.
Please welcome Tony. - Whoo!
- She's a professor and former NASA engineer
from St. Louis, Missouri, give it up for Dajae.
He's an electrician from Cincinnati, Ohio.
It's Jason.
Now, I should tell you that the contestant wheel
is 100% random, so here we go.
It's a one-in-three.
Who's it gonna be?
Spin the contestant wheel!
[upbeat music]
- Whoo! - Whoo!
- You go, girl.
- Yeah! - Hi!
- It's Dajae.
[cheers and applause]
Hi, Dajae. - Hi!
- So good to meet you Welcome to "The Wheel."
- Thank you. I'm happy to be here.
- So your name is Dajae. Am I saying that right?
- Yes, Dajae, like déjà vu.
- Like déjà vu. - Mm-hmm.
- Did your parents think they'd already had you
when they gave birth to you? [laughter]
So Dajae, tell us about yourself.
- I'm a former NASA rocket scientist.
- Whoa! - Yeah! You go girl!
- And now I am a professor at UC Santa Cruz,
and I write raps about math and science
to get other students to be NASA rocket scientists.
[cheers and applause] - This is amazingly unique.
- Thank you.
- If you were to win big money, Dajae,
what would you do with the money?
- Well, this music, it's really expensive to make,
so I would buy some recording studio time
so I can get my first album out.
- Let's start it all here.
Let's do this. Let's make it happen.
- Let's go.
- You will not be attacking these questions alone.
We are all here to help you tonight.
So these are the categories booked with our experts.
What are you feeling most confident about?
What are you gonna go for first?
- I am a snack person, so I'll have to go with Candy.
- You've gone for Candy,
which is something I do on a daily and nightly basis.
Why not? And right here in front of us,
our candy expert... - Ah, yes!
- Is the beautiful Amber.
Favorite candy? What do you--
- I do not favor candies.
You hand me a piece of candy, I'm gonna eat it.
[laughter]
- Which is why she is in gold,
because she is our expert.
Which means you land on her, it's worth $10,000 in the bank.
- Okay. - Which is double
the amount of money it's worth for everybody else.
Now, unfortunately, someone's going to have to
endure an unpleasant moment.
Who are you gonna shut down in red?
Meaning, if you land on them,
you're immediately off this wheel, Dajae.
Who do you feel cannot help you on the subject of candy?
I suppose-- what are we looking for?
We're looking for teeth? I suppose we're looking at teeth?
[laughter] Who's got the best teeth here
and might not be able to help you?
- Okay, so I'm gonna shut down Ricki.
- I know everything about candy.
- Oh, my God! [laughter]
- Ricki Lake, you are shut down.
- Okay. - You land on Ricki,
you're off the wheel.
Now, very best of luck, Dajae.
Spin the wheel!
Let's do this!
Come on, then!
[upbeat music]
Yeah!
*
- * The wheel, the wheel
- Okay. Where are we--
Come on. All right.
Could it be Amber? It looks like it's going to be
the magic man, the marvelous Justin.
- All right. - Well, well done.
For $5,000 in the bank,
let's take a look at the question.
Each expert will play along
and answer secretly on their key pads.
That is going to be very important
at the end of this game.
All right. Have a chat. What are you thinking?
- I eat these all the time, so it's like,
ugh, why don't I know this right off the top of my head?
But I think the butter cup has a bite mark.
Would you agree? - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
When I picture it in my head, the first thing I saw
was a bite. - Boom, take that out.
The calories, I think that the FDA--you gotta have it.
- Even though you don't wanna see that,
they do probably have to show that.
- Exactly. And I think they should put the weight
on there, too, like, I need to know
how much my butter cups weigh.
[laughter]
Is it by Nestlé, though? Or is it by Mars?
- They're Reese's. They belong to Reese.
- Yes, they are Reese's. - It's not Nestlé's Reese's
Peanut Butter Cups--I'm just trying to sound it out.
- I think I'm going to lock in
with the word Nestlé.
- Nestlé has been locked in.
It's a really good question
because you don't dwell on the wrapper.
You're just desperate to get that in you.
[laughter]
Okay, let's find out are you still on this wheel?
Is it the word Nestlé?
Good luck, Dajae.
[suspenseful music]
*
[ding] - Yes it is!
[cheers and applause]
Okay. It is actually Hershey's Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.
- Wow. - There you go.
- You got it right. That means $5,000 in the bank.
- All right, all right. - All right, all right.
- We're out of candy, but we have five categories remaining.
What are you gonna go for next? - Oh, man.
Football. - We're going Football.
- Football has been selected.
Mark, of course, our star quarterback.
And now you're going to be even more aglow
because you are in gold. - Oh, boy. Okay.
- Our golden expert on Football.
Who do you think from this wheel is not a football fan?
- Uhh, okay.
I think we're gonna go with Tori.
- Um, I make the best nachos for watching football,
so I don't know what you're talking about.
- Ooh, well, unfortunately...
- You chose wisely. - You have been shut down.
Land on Tori, you're off the wheel.
So, Mark, I'm gonna go with you
because I want to be you.
All right. Very best of luck.
You want to land here, with myself and Mark,
and we don't want to be over there.
Touchdown, not shut down.
Spin the wheel!
[upbeat music]
Come on, then.
*
- * The wheel - Here we go.
This is it. Come on. - * The wheel
Oh, oh, keep going. - No!
- No, we don't want Tori. - Keep going! Yeah!
- Yes! - Is it gonna be Justin
for the second time?
Is this you again? - Come on.
- Yes! - I did that with my mind.
- We've taken the risk
of booking a magician on the show, and guess what?
It's landed on him twice.
[laughter]
All right, let's have a look at it.
It's for another $5,000 in the bank.
Very best of luck.
What are you thinking, you two?
As a non-football fan, I'm trying to pick apart
the clues here. - Mm-hmm.
So Dawg Pound--so it's New Orleans Saints.
- The Saints-- is the saint a dog?
I don't know. I might just be making that up.
I'm definitely afraid of dogs, so I don't know.
- Okay. I'm like, where does the dog reference come from?
- The Dawg Pound Browns.
- Which city do you think have fans that are
just the most obnoxious?
- The Raiders, their fans get kind of crazy.
I can see them being the Dawg Pound.
Okay, I am going to lock in with--
Browns or Raiders--which one? Which one?
- [exhales] I think trust your gut.
- Ugh. Let's lock in with the Raiders.
- Raiders has been locked in.
Let's find out. Is it the Raiders?
[suspenseful music]
*
[buzzer blares] - Oh!
- Ohh!
- What's the right answer, Mark?
- Cleveland Browns. - It's the Cleveland Browns.
- I'm so sorry. - It's all good.
- It's early in the show, which means of course
you can come back, but you have lost your place on this wheel.
- We'll see you again. We'll see you soon.
- For now, it's good bye. - Bye.
- We wanna see you again.
We want Dajae vu!
- We'll always have candy.
- Will we see Dajae again? Dajae vu?
Or will it be Tony? Or will it be Jason?
See you after the break!
.
[cheers and applause]
- Welcome back to "The Wheel."
So we have one category removed.
Candy is gone.
We're out of candy, but we have $5,000 in the bank.
Five categories remaining and no contestant.
We've met Dajae. Will it be Dajae vu?
Or will it be someone new?
It's a one-in-three. Who's it gonna be?
Spin the contestant wheel!
[upbeat music]
*
It is someone new. - Whoo!
- It's Jason!
[cheers and applause]
- We are very happy
to meet you, Jason. - Thank you.
- Tell us about yourself, Jason.
I'm originally from Cincinnati.
I'm married, I have four daughters.
- Whoo. - And I'm a recent grandpa.
- What? - Yay.
- Is it fair to ask how old you are, Jason?
I mean-- - 43.
- 43--you're younger than me.
You're a grandfather. - Yes, sir.
If you win tonight, what would you do with the money?
- I plan to take my wife, mother-in-law,
and the two sister-in-laws, send them away for the weekend,
you know, nice 5-star retreat,
they can go hang out and recuperate,
and then me and the brother-in-laws
will take the kids and go up to June Lake
in Northern California.
- I like it. Okay.
So let's hope we can split you up from your loved ones.
[laughter] - Just a couple of days.
- And have a really nice break from each other.
Okay, now, what are you gonna go for from these categories?
- I'm gonna go with Law. - Amazing.
Law has been selected,
and of course, the highly esteemed Judge Mathis,
who is sitting and presiding over us all here today.
- I don't separate families. I don't do divorces.
[laughter]
No, I'm kidding. I separate myself sometimes.
- In order to help get us there,
we are gonna light you up in gold.
- All right. - Jason, who do you think
knows nothing of the law?
Who has a clean record here?
[laughter]
- I'm gonna have to go Amber.
- Big mistake, Jason.
I get into trouble all the time.
- Amber, we are going to shut you down.
So you don't want to land here. - All right.
- We are looking for Judge Mathis to take his seat
in front of you here. - Let's go.
- Jason, I'm going to wait here with you
and hope that he arrives.
Spin the wheel! Come on, Judge Mathis! Let's go!
Come on, the judge.
Go on the judge.
[upbeat music]
*
Nope. - * The wheel
- Oh, no, danger.
- * The wheel
- Come on, Judge Mathis. - Yes!
- Go, go, go, go, go! - Come on!
Come on! - Come on, come on, come on!
- Oh, it's okay.
Go, Ricki.
- So let me just say
I'm not a lawyer. - No.
- But I share a bed with one. - [gasps]
Does your husband know about this?
[laughter]
You know, this is really good.
- Yes. - She is well placed.
Let's have a look at the question on the law.
It's for $5,000 in the bank.
Was it...
Poker faced. Lock in your answers.
- I know this. - Okay, all right.
- Miranda versus Arizona. It's the Miranda Rights, right?
- In my younger years, my early 20s,
I used to be a corrections officer.
- No way. Oh, you know this. - So I am familiar
with this question as well.
So I would like to lock in Miranda versus Arizona.
- Let's do it.
Is it Miranda versus Arizona? We're feeling confident.
[suspenseful music]
*
[ding] It is!
[cheers and applause] Yes, yes, yes.
- That feels so good. - Whoo!
- Yes. - And an extra $5,000
for that correct answer.
That means there's $10,000 now in the bank as well.
Four categories remain.
I'm so sorry. I'm finding it hard to concentrate.
You do have very piercing blue eyes.
- Thank you very much. [laughter]
- And you've got the best eyes of any of the grandfathers
in all the world. [laughter]
Now Grandpa Jason with the beautiful eyes,
what are you gonna go for?
- I'm going to go with magic.
- Well, this is an exciting moment.
Magic has been selected.
- There we go. - Justin, I'm going to perform
a little bit of magic myself. - Are you?
- As I place you in gold. [shimmering tone]
[laughter]
- Wow. - I enjoyed doing that.
I can also do that for a shutdown player.
Who would you like to shut down?
I'm gonna have to shut down Tori.
- Tori, you are shut down.
- I did play the Unicorn, so I am magical,
so that's okay. [laughter]
- I love the way that Tori has a little bit of defense
every time-- "I do make nachos,
so you really messed up there."
"I once played a unicorn, so think again, pal."
All right, spin the wheel! Come on, Jason!
Let's do this! - Let's go, baby.
[B.o.B's "Magic"]
- * I got the magic in me
- All right. - * Magic, magic, magic
* Magic, magic, magic
* Magic, magic, magic, awoo
- Come on.
Come on, we don't want Tori.
- Little more, little more! - This is gonna be good stuff.
He's using his magic.
Use your magic! Use your--
[audience groaning]
So close.
We have Amber. Let's have a look at the question.
- Jason, do you love magic?
- I do love magic. Don't understand it.
- You have magical eyes.
- Ah, see? - Oh, my God!
- Can we get a restraining order on him?
[laughter]
- All right, Judge. I'll behave, I'll behave!
Give me another chance.
All right, so looking at the list,
I can automatically eliminate Mount Rushmore.
Liberty bell, I don't think they let people touch it.
Do you have any help for me on the other ones?
- David Copperfield made the Statue of Liberty disappear.
I watched it when I was a child.
Now, did he have 14 specials where he made this disappear
and that disappear? - Good point.
- Am I thinking of someone else instead of David Copperfield?
- I'm down to a 50-50 of Statue of Liberty
and the Golden Gate Bridge.
You helped push my needle to that side,
so I'm gonna lock in the Statue of Liberty.
- The Statue of Liberty's been locked in.
Let's find out. Is it Statue of Liberty?
Are you still on this wheel?
Have we made this category disappear?
[suspenseful music]
*
[ding] - Yes!
- Of course we have. - Yes! Yeah!
- Of course we have. - Yes, sir!
$15,000 in the bank.
Only three categories left.
Halfway through the wheel.
Can Jason stay here?
Find out after the break!
.
[cheers and applause]
- Welcome back to "The Wheel."
I'm here with Jason.
There's $15,000 in the bank.
Halfway through the wheel.
What are you gonna go for next?
- All right.
I'm gonna go with "90210."
- "Beverly Hills, 90210."
- I got nervous. I did see the blue eyes
all the sudden, and I couldn't remember.
- Oh, thank you. - It's unbelievable.
It's unbelievable.
- Yours are pretty beautiful, too.
- No, I--excuse me, I'm having a moment, too.
Mine are what? [laughter]
- Pretty beautiful as well. - I do have good eyes as well.
Oh, thank you. Yeah.
Tori, you are our expert, which means you are in gold.
- Oh, I love it.
- Who are you gonna shut down?
- I hope he doesn't hold it against me.
Judge Mathis. - This is unbelievable.
- You are shut down.
Don't think we've had a gold yet.
It think it's time now.
Let's spin the wheel!
[upbeat music]
Yeah.
- It's gonna land on Tori. You got it.
- Come on.
We want Tori. We want Tori.
- * The wheel - Come on, Tori.
- * The wheel
- Stop.
Stop! - Oh, no!
- Keep going. - No, stop here.
- Come on. Come on! - Stop here!
- Yes! - Stop here!
- Oh, my God, Tori! - Stop--
ohh, it's gonna go past.
- Are you kidding?
- It's the magic man again.
"Beverly Hills, 90210" is the category.
Here's the question.
What are you two thinking?
- I'm curious what your recollection here is
because I have an instinct here.
- I've got a slight one. I can eliminate two early.
The first one would be Emma Stone.
Age appropriate, right? - Right. Yep, yep.
- I can probably eliminate Halle Berry, too.
So right now I'm 50-50 between Hilary
and Gwyneth Paltrow. - Hmm.
Interesting. I'm leaning towards Hillary Swank.
Something in my little memory bank
puts Hilary Swank's face on early "90210."
If it wasn't Hilary Swank, I would say Gwyneth,
but I feel like I would've remembered.
- Phew, oh. - Jason, it's your decision.
- Yeah, it is your decision. - What are you gonna lock in?
- I think we're on the same wavelength here,
and I'm gonna lock in Hilary Swank.
- Hilary Swank has been locked in.
- Lock it in.
- All right. Let's find out.
It's for $5,000 in the bank.
Is it Hilary Swank?
[suspenseful music]
*
[ding] Yes, it is!
- Redeemed! [cheers and applause]
- Well done.
- $20,000 now in the bank.
You are on an absolute roll.
There are two categories remaining--
Poker and Football.
What are you gonna go for?
- I am gonna go with Poker.
So Poker's been selected.
Of course, our expert in poker, Ricki Lake.
Any big wins? - The biggest I did
in the Bahamas in the World Series of Poker
I won, like, $6,500. - Oh.
Well, that's very, very good. Well, well done.
She's our expert, so she's in gold.
- All right, let's do this. - Who would you like
to shut down on the subject of poker?
- I'm gonna have to shut down the hot hand, Justin.
- You're gonna have to use your magic to shut yourself down.
- [snaps] [laughter]
You're very good, actually.
All right, well, obviously, you want Ricki.
- Yes. - And you do not want Justin!
Spin the wheel! Let's do this!
Come on, Ricki! [Lady Gaga's "Poker Face"]
We don't want the shutdown.
- * On my poker face
- * Bum, bum, bah
Where's it gonna land? Come on!
Who's it gonna be?
Keep going. - * My poker face
* My poker face
- Slow down, slow down. - Come on, then, Ricki.
- Come on, come on, come on.
- This is what we want. - Get to Ricki, get to Ricki.
- Could be Amber again.
- Oh, my gosh. Yes.
- It's Amber. - We can do it.
We got it.
- Let's see if she can help you.
All right, let's have a look at the question.
It's for another $5,000 in the bank.
And your place on this wheel.
Experts lock in your answers.
What are you two thinking?
- Doesn't it seem like some Clinton and Nixon stuff to do?
- Yeah. - It truly seems--
- I'm with you there, I'm with you.
- Like something both of them would do.
Abraham Lincoln's too tall.
He's too tall. - He can hide cards
under his hat. - Right.
- I don't think Thomas Jefferson
was sitting down playing poker. - He doesn't seem like
a poker guy, I'm comfortable cutting him out, so--
- So we're 50-50, Bill Clinton, Richard Nixon.
- We're 50-50. I-- Oh, man!
Oh, I'm freakin' out! - Give me your best--
give me your best shot in the dark.
- I'm starting to think Abe Lincoln.
Isn't that terrible?
- A little, a little. - I had cut him out
because of his height, and now in my brain
he is back in the game. - 'Cause it could speak
to that timeframe. - It was probably
a cool thing to do when Abe Lincoln did it.
- Jason, what are you gonna do? What are you gonna lock in?
- I'm gonna lock in Abe Lincoln.
- Abe Lincoln has been locked in.
Let's find out if that is the right answer.
Is it Abe Lincoln?
Are you still on this wheel?
[suspenseful music]
*
- Come on.
[buzzer blares] Ohh!
- Oh, wow.
I don't--I just didn't think it was gonna be wrong.
You're on such a roll, I just--
- Mm.
- Let's see who was right-- was the correct answer.
- Ohh! - Richard Nixon.
- Unfortunately, you two didn't come to the right answer.
- That's all right. - It is goodbye to Jason.
He's off the wheel. - Bye, Jason.
- Bye, guys.
- Bye, grandpa.
- He could be back, or we could meet Tony for the first time,
or Dajae vu.
Find out after the break on "The Wheel"!
.
[cheers and applause]
- Welcome back to "The Wheel,"
where we have $20,000 in the bank,
only two categories remaining,
and no contestant.
Of course, as we well know, it's a one-in-three,
who's it gonna be?
Spin the contestant wheel!
[upbeat music]
Who's it gonna be?
*
[cheering]
Yeah, Tony!
Tony, welcome to "The Wheel." - Thank you. I'm here.
- Tell us all about yourself.
- So I'm from Chicago, Illinois, the South Side.
I'm currently a mental health professional,
so I give back and I just support
my provided mental health interventions
here in Los Angeles.
- Well, that is amazing work, to help people,
especially in the last couple of years
when people have needed it so badly.
- Absolutely. - Now, if you won big money,
what would you do with that money, Tony?
- I'm going right to Chicago to open up
some mental health facilities to give back
to an underprivileged youth
who didn't grow up with resources
to accommodate their mental health.
- Amazing! - Tony!
- Oh, Tony! - You're a very nice man, Tony.
- Thank you, thank you.
- So only two categories remain.
How do you feel about Poker and Football?
What are you gonna go for?
- Oh, man, I'm going poker.
- We're gonna go poker. - Let's go poker.
- Poker has been selected.
Our expert is Ricki Lake, and she is in gold.
Who are you gonna shut down?
- I'm gonna have to shut down the Judge.
- [gasps] Judge Mathis. - I gamble.
- Let's get Ricki Lake. Spin the wheel! Come on!
- Whoo! - You got it, you got it.
- Let's go.
- This is what we want.
Where's it gonna land? Come on!
[upbeat music]
This is what we go for. - * The wheel
- No!
- * The wheel - This is what we want.
No, come on! Come on! Come on!
This is it. It's gonna be.
- Oh, my God! - Yeah, baby!
- Yeah. - Yeah!
- Yeah. - Yes.
[cheers and applause]
- Yes!
- My heart's beating like a rabbit.
- We need you, we need you.
- This is now for $10,000 in the bank,
so let's have a look at the question.
- Okay.
- Oh, man.
- Ooh.
- Do you know five-card stud? - I don't,
so everything you say right now, I'm gonna support you
to the fullest. - Okay, my dad taught me
five-card stud.
So I know a flush beats a straight.
Three of a kind is not as good as a flush.
A pair is just a pair.
- I'm loving the energy. - But is it a five-card stud--
is a straight better than a flush?
- Five-card stud is the key.
- I think it's full house, I do.
- Tony, it's your decision.
What are you gonna lock in?
- You know what, I'm going with Ricki on this.
I'm gonna lock in full house. - We're gonna lock in
full house. - Let's do this, Ricki!
- I believe in Ricki. - Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. - For your sake, Tony,
we are so hoping that it is full house
and you've removed poker from this wheel,
or you will be removed from this wheel.
For $10,000 in the bank,
is it full house?
- Come on, Ricki, come on.
[suspenseful music]
*
[ding] - Yes!
- Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo! - Oh, my God!
- I'm throwing you hugs right now, catch 'em.
Catch 'em. [cheers and applause]
- Well done, which means an additional $10,000.
That's $30,000 now in the bank.
- Whoo! [cheers and applause]
Only one category remains.
Football is the last one on the wheel.
Clear this, you're through to the cash out question.
You just landed on a golden expert.
How about we do that again? - Right.
- If we were to do that again, of course,
we'd be landing on Mark.
He is in gold. [shimmering tone]
Now, who are you gonna shut down?
- I'm gonna have to shut down Tori.
Tori, you are now shut down.
- I'm so sorry. - That's okay.
- All right. Spin the wheel!
Let's go!
- You got it, you got it. - Come on, come on,
come on, Mark, come on.
- Come on, Mark! - There we go, yes.
- Here we go. - Come on. Here we go.
- Oh, boy. - Come round.
- Come on! - Come on, Mark.
Come on, man. - Spin away from Tori,
no Tori. - Oh, man, this is tough.
- Here we go! Here we go!
- Ohh! Ohh. - Come on, come on, come on.
- There's no way. No way. No way!
Yes! [cheers and applause]
Let's go, Mark. - All right, Tony.
- Yes. It's me and you, Mark. - That is amazing.
- Yay!
- That is two golds in a row.
- Oh, man, we got this.
It is to clear the wheel
and go through to the cash out question.
Let's have a look at the question.
I'm hoping you know what referees are doing.
- Field goal, it's good. - Obviously.
- Touchdown, easy. - Obviously.
- Extra point. - Obviously.
- Okay. - First down.
Yeah. I got it.
- Well, I don't think I've ever seen a more confident exchange.
- Yeah. - You were just
luxuriating in this. - I know, I know.
- You were like, we both know this,
but should we have some fun?
So what are you gonna lock in?
- I'm gonna go ahead and lock in first down.
- I don't think anybody watching the show
thinks for a moment this isn't gonna go our way.
Have you cleared this wheel? Is it the right answer?
[suspenseful music]
*
[ding] Yeah!
[cheers and applause]
You did it! - I love it.
- Oh, my God.
The bank stands at $40,000. - Whoo!
You have cleared the wheel.
Tony's the man here. [cheers and applause]
Can Tony cash out tonight?
We'll find out after the break.
Go nowhere!
- Whoo!
.
[cheers and applause]
- Welcome back to "The Wheel,"
where I am here with Tony.
The bank stands at $40,000.
There's only one final cash out question
for you to answer, and it is worth serious money.
To find out who is going to help you,
first what I have to do is reveal the rankings.
We have been collecting all your answers
from tonight's show to let you know
who has come first and who has come last.
Tori, how do you feel you might've done
answering the questions tonight?
- I'm feeling good about being last.
- Oh, dear. [laughter]
So only three of our experts are still in play
for you to choose from. - Okay.
- They are: our top performing celebrity,
it's Amber. - Wow.
- Yay! - Yes!
She was feeling confident.
Well done, Amber. She's still in the game.
Also still in the game, our middle placed expert,
Mark. [cheers and applause]
Very good.
And the final person still in the game
is our bottom placed player.
Is it Justin, Tori,
Ricki, or Judge Mathis?
Tori, you've been so much fun,
but you have unfortunately come last tonight.
- I put the "F" in fun.
[laughter]
- She put the "F" in fun,
but we need somebody to put the "W" in win.
So who's that going to be?
If you choose Mark, our middle placed expert,
You're gonna be playing for the entire $40,000.
However, if you decide to play a little safer
and go with Amber, our top performing celebrity,
then I'm halving the bank, you'd win $20,000.
But if you do the thing that, quite frankly,
I really want you to do... [laughter]
if you choose the girl who put the "F" into fun,
for the girl who did answer all the questions tonight,
she just didn't answer them correctly.
[laughter]
If you choose Tori to help you,
because she came last tonight,
I'm doubling the bank.
$80,000 for you, Tony. [cheers and applause]
It's a huge decision. Who are you gonna select?
You know what, I came on the show to risk it all.
I'm going with Tori. - Yes!
[cheers and applause]
Tori, you have been selected. - Okay.
- Let's make it interesting. Let's do this. Come on.
- Wow. Well, it's the bravest decision.
You never know. It could be on a subject
that Tori is an expert in.
- Let's hope we get fashion, Tony!
- I believe in you.
I believe in you. - The question will come
from one of these three new categories:
Celebrities, Chess, Sneakers.
- Hmm. - Tori, what would you
most like it to come from, this question?
- Uh, I'm gonna go with Celebrities.
- Okay, well, we're hoping for Celebrities.
Let's spin the category wheel.
[cheers and applause] - Okay.
- Come on, guys. Let's win this.
For the big money!
- Come on, Celebrities!
[upbeat music]
- Here we go.
No. It doesn't look like it's Celebrities.
- Ugh.
Oh, man. [laughter]
Let's keep the faith. Let's keep it.
- Do you play chess, Tony?
- No. - Me neither.
- Do you watch "Queen's Gambit"?
- I did not. - Me neither.
[laughter]
Ohh, man. - Okay, now.
This is for $80,000. It's to win tonight's show.
I'm gonna read the question, I'm gonna give you
four possible answers,
then you this time only have 30 seconds to discuss it.
Then you have to immediately lock in the answer.
Tori, have you ever had a conversation
that only lasted 30 seconds?
[laughter]
- What do you think?
- So this is your debut.
Okay. Deep breath.
Let's have a look at the question.
Start the clock. 30 seconds. Discuss.
- Oh, my God. - What can we eliminate?
- Okay. - Uh--
you gotta go all the way with the queen, I know that, right?
You don't wanna get her knocked off.
- Mm-hmm.
If you're doing checkmate, you're knocking something off.
- You're winning, correct? Yeah.
- Uh--
I don't think it's your night is a traitor.
- Agreed. - The king is unable to escape,
I don't believe that. - That's not winning, right?
- The bishop has deceived you, God save the queen.
- Few seconds left and you have to lock something in.
[buzzer blares]
Tony, what are you gonna lock in?
It's your decision. - Let's lock in
God save the queen.
- God save the queen has been locked in.
This is to win tonight's show for $80,000.
It's your brave decision.
Neither of you play chess,
that was unlucky.
But have you luckily come to the right answer?
Is it God save the queen?
[suspenseful music]
*
[buzzer blares]
What's the right answer?
It is the king is unable to escape.
- Ohh. - I'm so, so sorry
That's a tough one to take,
but it's a one-in-three whether you return.
There's two more chances to win this show.
- Oh, okay. [laughter]
But for now, I'm so sorry. Goodbye, Tony.
- I'm so sorry. - Two more chances
to cash out the bank.
Tony could be back,
it could be Dajae or it could be Jason.
We'll find out when we return. Don't go anywhere.
.
[cheers and applause]
- Welcome back to "The Wheel."
We are into the cash out round.
Tony failed to win the show with Tori,
going for the big money, $80,000, it was a--
- Stop looking at me when you say that.
- No, I'm sorry, I have to update people
on what's happening, I'm so sorry.
It was a tough question.
Now, who's it gonna be? It's a one-in-three.
Spin the contestant wheel.
[upbeat music]
Will it be Dajae, will it be Tony, or will it be Jason?
Who's it gonna be?
[cheers and applause]
Finally! Dajae vu!
I knew we'd see her again.
- Oh, my God.
- Dajae. - I'm here already.
- Yep. We are at the end of this game,
which means you only have to answer one more question
to win the show. - Wow. Okay.
- Remind us what you'd do if you won the money tonight,
'cause you're only one question away.
- Look, I'm getting this album done.
- Yes. Yes. - Yep. For the kids,
for the kids, we gotta make this music.
Now you are gonna be assisted in this cash out question.
Either you're going to choose our top performing expert,
Amber, for $20,000,
or you're going to play with Mark,
our middle performing expert, and you'll win $40,000.
- Okay. I'm gonna go-- I'm going with Mark.
- We're gonna go with Mark for the most money, $40,000.
Star quarterback Mark Sanchez.
Come on! Let's give them some encouragement.
- All right, Dajae. - Now, this cash out question
is going to come from one of these two categories.
It's either Sneakers
or Celebrities. - Okay.
- I'm gonna spin these two categories to see what
the cash out question's going to be on for $40,000.
Let's spin the category wheel.
[cheers and applause]
[upbeat music]
*
It's going to be Celebrities. - Okay.
- So Dajae, I'm asking the question.
I'm giving you four possible answers.
Then you two have only 30 seconds to discuss it.
- Okay. - Let's have a look
at the question on Celebrities.
Start the clock.
- Do you have any idea? - No idea.
- Okay, I'm thinking Gene Simmons
'cause he was in Kiss.
Is that right?
- I've got-- - He's the tongue guy in Kiss,
the rockin' band-- the rock 'n roll band,
you know? - Okay, well, I'm gonna--
- I don't know who-- - 15 seconds.
- I have no idea, honestly. - I know Katy Perry,
"I Kissed a Girl and I Liked It,"
but that's not this.
- Right. - Few seconds left.
- One of the two. Katy Perry or Gene Simmons,
but I think Gene Simmons. - Okay.
- You need to lock in an answer.
What are you gonna lock in? - Lock in with Gene Simmons.
- Gene Simmons has been locked in.
Dajae, you had no idea.
You had to rely on Mark for that answer.
You narrowed it down to two.
It's for you to come up and steal the wheel.
You're back when it matters.
If this is wrong,
You're off the wheel again,
where you may or may not return.
- Whoo. - I so hope
that Mark has helped.
Is it Gene Simmons.
For $40,000, have you won tonight's show?
[suspenseful music]
*
[ding] - Ohh!
- Yes! - Oh, my God!
What? - Yes!
- Oh, my God! Wait a minute.
- You have won the show! $40,000!
- Wait a minute.
- Whoo! - Okay, I'm about to cry.
- Unbelievable.
Dajae, how do you feel?
- I feel amazing.
This is crazy.
Who would've thought? [laughter]
Thank you, dude. - You're welcome.
- Well, hopefully this money can start you off on your life.
You're young, you're super bright,
you're obviously not a Kiss fan,
but I bet you are now. [laughter]
- I'm gonna go buy the book.
- $40,000!
Dajae, ladies and gentlemen! [cheers and applause]
And thank you to all of our experts.
You were all brilliant.
See you next time on "The Wheel"!
[cheers and applause]
