(audience exclaiming)
Beck bridger: I'm going to have to start strong.
So let's start with pop.
Niecy nash: Pop.
(audience cheering)
Well, let's see what your two song choices are.
"stronger (what doesn't kill you)", by kelly clarkson,
Or "down under", by men at work?
Beck bridger: I love kelly clarkson so much.
(audience cheering)
I'm going to go with "stronger".
Niecy nash: For this particular song,
I'm going to need four missing words,
And we'll start it at the first chorus.

(audience cheering) beck bridger: Whoo.
Niecy nash: All right.
Kelly clarkson said,
"stronger, stronger, just".
You said,
"me, myself, and I".
How are you feeling about this answer?
Beck bridger: I'm feeling confident, niecy.
I want to lock in those lyrics.
(audience cheering)
Niecy nash: All right.
You locked in those lyrics.
If you are correct, the line will turn green.
If any word is incorrect, it will turn red
And the game is over.
For $2,500, is it
"me myself and I"?
(drum roll)
(audience cheering) beck bridger: Yes!
Niecy nash: You got it right.
You just banked $2,500 and you're on your way
To a million dollars.
Now let's try to double it.
This next song is worth $5,000.
Beck bridger: Woo. (audience applauding)
Niecy nash: Which category do you want to play for next?
Beck bridger: You know what, niecy?
I came here to sing and I want to do karaoke classics.
(audience cheering)
Niecy nash: All right.
Do you do a lot of karaoke?
Beck bridger: I love doing karaoke.
For my birthday, actually,
I begged my parents to have a karaoke system.
I have it still to this day.
It's green, it has a cd player,
Which people don't even know what that is anymore,
But I love it, so,
I'm ready. Niecy nash: All right.
Let's take a look at your two song choices,
"all star" by smash mouth or "love shack" by the b-52s.
(audience exclaiming)
Beck bridger: I love "love shack", but I'm feeling
So confident with smash mouth.
I'm going with "all star".
(audience cheering)
Niecy nash: For this song, I'm going to need
Three missing words and we'll start at the first chorus.
You ready?
Beck bridger: I'm ready.

"only shooting stars".
You said,
"break the mold".
How are you feeling about this answer?
Beck bridger: I'm feeling confident, girl, let's go.
(audience applauding)
Niecy nash: Does that mean
You want to lock in these lyrics?
Beck bridger: I want to lock in these lyrics.
(audience cheering)
Niecy nash: All right.
You locked in those lyrics.
For $5,000, is it
"break the mold"?
(drum roll)
(celebratory music)
Yay! Beck bridger: Yay!
Niecy nash: That's $5,000. (audience cheering)
This time, you're playing for $10,000.
(audience cheering) beck bridger: Oh my gosh.
Niecy nash: Beck, which category is going to get you the money?
(audience exclaiming) beck bridger: Ok, so
I'm feeling really confident with rock
Because I am in a rock band for the army,
So I feel like that's what I should do, so rock it is.
(audience cheering)
Niecy nash: All right, let's take a look
At your two song choices.
"american idiot", by green day,
Or "sympathy for the devil", by the rolling stones.
Beck bridger: I mean, growing up,
"american idiot" is kind of like a staple song.
I'm not feeling confident with the rolling stones at all,
So I'm going to do "american idiot".
(audience cheering)
Niecy nash: Ok, beck, for this song,
I am going to need four missing words
And we're going to start it at the third verse.
Beck bridger: Ok, let's give it a go.
(audience cheering)
Niecy nash: Ricky, let's give it a go.
(rock music)
You got this.
♪ don't want to be an american idiot ♪
♪ one nation controlled by the media ♪
♪ information age of hysteria
♪ it's calling out to idiot america ♪
♪ welcome to a new kind of tension ♪
♪ all across the alien nation
♪ where everything isn't
Beck bridger: Ooh.
(audience laughs)
♪ where everything isn't
Oh my gosh, I have no clue.
Niecy nash: All right, well you have two backups.
Your first backup option is your backup singer.
Who did you bring with you today?
Beck bridger: Niecy, today I brought my best friend, gina.
She has been a mentor and a close family friend to me
For four years. (audience cheering)
Niecy nash: Ok, well gina can help you out
With the answer, but only for one song,
Or you have three words.
If at any time you're unsure of what a word is,
Just tell me which one and we'll reveal the correct answer.
Now you can use your three words all at once
Or you can spread them out across the game.
Would you like to use one of your backups?
Beck bridger: I'm going to use my backup singer.
(audience cheering)
Niecy nash: Ok, come on up here miss gina.
(audience cheering)
Gina: All righty.
Ok.
Niecy nash: Hi, so gina,
How are you feeling about what you see up here on the board,
Which is nada, zip, zero, zilch?
(audience laughs)
Gina: Yes.
It is nada, zip, zero, nothing.
Beck bridger: Nothing.
Niecy nash: Ok.
Gina: And for me too.
(audience groaning)
So here's what I want you to think about.
I want you to think about what those lyrics say above there.
Think about what's logical.
♪ all across the alien nation where everything isn't ♪
♪ da da da da da
Niecy nash: Gina, thank you.
Gina: Thank you. Beck bridger: Oh no.
Niecy nash: Thank you for your support, all right.
Have a seat right over there. (audience applauding)
At this point, would you like to use
Any of your other backups?
Beck bridger: Yes, I would like to see the fourth word.
Niecy nash: Please reveal the correct word
For line number four.
Beck bridger: Ok.
Well, it is ok.
Niecy nash: Ok, did that help you out at all?
Beck bridger: I don't feel like that helped me out.
So I'm going to have to be a little strategic here.
I need the first word.
Niecy nash: Please reveal the correct word
To line number one.
Beck bridger: Ok.
♪ all across the alien nation
♪ where everything isn't meant to be ok ♪
Niecy nash: Would you like to see it up there?
Beck bridger: Yes.
I only have one word left and honestly,
I really should save it.
Niecy nash: So what do you want to do about it?
Beck bridger: Lock in those lyrics.
(audience applauding) (lock clinking)
Niecy nash: All right.
You locked in those lyrics, beck.
For $10,000, is it
"meant to be ok"?
(drum roll)
(celebratory music)
(beck screaming)
You just banked $10,000.
(audience applauding) (audience cheering)
Beck is going for a guaranteed $25,000 next
On "don't forget the lyrics".
(audience applauding) (audience cheering)
(jazzy music)
(audience cheering) (audience applauding)
Welcome back to "don't forget the lyrics".
Beck struggled a bit on her last song but made it through
And now has $10,000 in the bank.
(audience cheering)
There are six categories left and she still has
One backup word left if she needs it.
This next song is worth $25,000 guaranteed.
(audience cheering)
Beck, if you can secure $25,000,
What are you going to do with it?
Beck bridger: You know, niecy,
I wouldn't be here today without my mom and dad.
When I was just four days old, I was adopted.
My biological mother gifted me to my mom and dad,
And so I would use this money to thank them and give back
To them because they are the light of my life.
(audience applauding) (audience cheering)
Niecy nash: All right.
Which category is going to get mom and dad taken care of?
Beck bridger: Ok, so I love usher.
I think that I'm going to save usher
And I'm going to go with soul.
(audience cheering)
Niecy nash: Now what made you decide
To pick that category?
Beck bridger: So I have been listening to soul
My entire life since I was a little girl.
I listened to earth, wind and fire with my dad growing up.
So I have so many memories where I was rocking out
To groove and funk and all of my favourite genres so.
Niecy nash: There we go.
Well, let's take a look and see
What your two song choices are.
"ain't no mountain high enough".
Beck bridger: Woo.
Niecy nash: Marvin gaye and tammi terrell,
Or "it's your thing" by the isley brothers.
Beck bridger: I got to go the classic,
"ain't no mountain high enough".
Let's go. (audience cheering)
Niecy nash: All right.
For $25,000 guaranteed,
I am looking for four missing words
And we'll take the song from the top.
Beck bridger: Let's go.
Niecy nash: Let's go, ricky.
(audience cheering)

(audience applauding)
Niecy nash: All right, marvin and tammi said,
"ain't no river wide enough to keep me from".
You said,
"getting to you babe".
How are you feeling about this answer?
Beck bridger: I'm going to go with it.
I feel really confident.
I'm going to lock in those lyrics.
(audience cheering) niecy nash: All right.
You locked in those lyrics for $25,000 guaranteed
And a chance to take care of your parents.
Is it,
"getting to you babe"?
(drum roll)
(celebratory music)
Beck bridger: Yeah!
Niecy nash: That is $25,000 guaranteed.
Beck, that money is yours no matter
What happens in the game.
How does that feel?
Beck bridger: It feels so good.
I can't believe I've made it this far.
I'm feeling very grateful just to be here,
Especially with you, niecy.
So I want to keep going.
Come on.
(audience applauding) (audience cheering)
Niecy nash: She's getting closer to the million,
But now the game is about to get harder.
There are five categories left to the million dollar song.
We're going to try to double your money again,
Girlfriend, to $50,000.
(audience cheering)
Which category is going to get you that money?
Beck bridger: I have been thinking about this
And I want to do number one hits.
Let's go.
Niecy nash: Let's take a look and see
What your two song choices are.
"hooked on a feeling" by blue swede
Or "wrecking ball" by miley cyrus.
Beck bridger: Ok, so I love "hooked on a feeling",
But I'm going to do "wrecking ball" because miley cyrus
Is awesome and I have some of her energy
And I'm ready to go.
Niecy nash: All right.
Well for this song I'm going to need seven missing words.
(audience groaning)
Beck bridger: Let's do it.
Niecy nash: Ricky, let's do it.

Beck bridger: Girl.
Niecy nash: So what we're going to do,
I'm just going to ask you, sing that first line
Into your chosen lyrics and if it's right,
The line will turn green.
Beck bridger: Ok.
Niecy nash: If it's wrong, you go home with $25,000.
Beck bridger: Ok.

But so does the pressure.
We'll be right back with more "don't forget the lyrics".
(jazzy music)
(audience cheering)
Welcome back.
I'm here with army sergeant and beauty queen, beck bridger
And she is crushing it.
She already has $50,000 in her bank.
(audience cheering)
There are just four categories left,
And she still has one backup word if she needs it.
Let's keep moving.
This next song is worth $75,000.
(audience cheering) (audience applauding)
$75,000.
What would you do with that kind of money?
Beck bridger: My mom was actually diagnosed
With stage iv cancer the year after covid.
So I had to navigate a lot of big emotions.
I shipped off to basic combat training
While she was undergoing treatment and I really would love
To gift this back to her just to further her treatment
And recovery and elevate her in whatever her dreams
Could possibly be throughout the remainder of her life.
(audience applauding) (audience cheering)
Niecy nash: There we go.
All right, which category do you want to play for
To make that happen?
You still have left in play
'70s, usher, tv themes, and country.
Beck bridger: Ok, so I'm going to actually go
With usher now because I love usher.
(audience applauding)
Let's go.
Niecy nash: Let's take a look at your two song choices.
"confessions part ii" or "dj got us falling in love"?
Beck bridger: That's so hard.
They're so, they're classics.
I'm going to go "dj got us falling in love".
(audience cheering)
Niecy nash: All right, for $75,000,
I'm going to need seven missing words.
Beck bridger: Ok.
Niecy nash: You ready?

Niecy nash: Ok, so this is what you just sang,
But we could change it to anything you want
If you want to see something else up there.
Beck bridger: Girl.
Ok, I only have one word left,
But I really need to wait and be strategic.
Niecy nash: Ok, so you do know that.
You do have one backup word left if you need it.
If you are right, you will have $75,000.
Beck bridger: Oh my gosh.
(audience cheering)
Niecy nash: But if you are wrong,
You'll drop back down to your guaranteed $25,000.
How confident are you in this answer?
Beck bridger: I'm confident right now because I remember
Being at high school dances and jumping and being like,
♪ last last night of your life girl come ♪
So I'm going to go with this.
I'm going to lock in those lyrics.
(audience cheering)
Niecy nash: All right.
Beck bridger: Oh my gosh.
Niecy nash: You locked in those lyrics.
For $75,000, is it
"last last night of your life girl"?
(drum roll)
(defeated music) beck bridger: Aww.
Niecy nash: That is incorrect, beck.
What do you think it is?
Beck bridger: I sort of think it's life now.
Niecy nash: Let's take a look
And see what the correct lyric is.

Niecy nash: You were right, but you are still
Leaving here with $25,000.

Two things you need to know about filipinos,
We like to eat and we love singing karaoke.
Niecy nash: Ok.
Rubina bernabe: And with my family, it's more of
A block party because they all literally live
On the same block in the philippines

A little confidence builder for me.
Niecy nash: Ok.
Rubina bernabe: And I grew up in the days of

Rubina bernabe: You know, it felt good coming out
And I'm looking at it and it's not feeling as good.

You can use them all at once
Or spread them out across the game.
Rubina bernabe: Ok, you know what?
I'm in it to win it, and I'm not about
To go on the $2,500 one.

You know, I feel good about this now.
I would like to lock in those lyrics, niecy.

Niecy nash: Ok, you scared me to death,
So I hope you're right.

If you are correct, the line will turn green.
If any words in the line are wrong,
They will turn red and the game is over.
All right?
Rubina bernabe: Yeah.
Niecy nash: So for $2,500, is it,

Rubina bernabe: Oh!
Oh, not the girl for me.
(audience applauding) (audience cheering)
Niecy nash: Well, I feel like
You surprised yourself on that one.
Rubina bernabe: Out of body experience.
(niecy laughs)
Niecy nash: Fountains of wayne said,
"stacy can't you see, you're just".
You said, very passionately,
"not the girl for me".
How confident are you in these lyrics?
Rubina bernabe: You know, the fact that that came out,
I'm shocked, but it feels good.
♪ stacy can't you see
♪ you're just not the girl for me ♪
I want to go ahead and lock in those lyrics.
Whitney: All right. (audience applauding)
Niecy nash: All right.
You locked in those lyrics.
Rubina bernabe: Yeah. (audience cheering)
Niecy nash: For $10,000, is it
"not the girl for me"?
(drum roll)
(celebratory music)
(rubina laughing) (audience cheering)
You just banked $10,000, and are you ready
To turn that into $25,000, guaranteed?
Rubina bernabe: That's what I came here to do, niecy.
Niecy nash: Ok.
More music, more money, more rubina coming up
On "don't forget the lyrics".
(jazzy music)
(audience cheering)
Welcome back to "don't forget the lyrics".
So far, rubina has knocked down
Three songs and banked $10,000.
(audience applauding) (audience cheering)
We want to get her closer to a million,
But now the game is about to get harder.
There are six categories left and rubina,
You still have your backup singer
And two words if you need them.
The next song is worth $25,000,
(audience cheering)
And not just that, but that money is guaranteed,
No matter what happens.
(audience applauding) (audience cheering)
Tell me, my little spirited friend,
What would you do with $25,000?
Rubina bernabe: Well, you saw my photo of all my family.
Niecy nash: Yes.
Rubina bernabe: I would take an extended vacation
To the philippines and like,
Some of them have never been on vacation.
Some of them never even been out for dinner.
So I would start with taking everyone out for dinner
And seeing where the night leads.
(audience cheering)
Niecy nash: Ok, I like it.
Which category is going to get us
That dinner with the family?
Is it pop, latin hits, rock, soul,
Daryl hall and john oates, or rock and roll hall of fame?
Rubina bernabe: I got to go with something
I'm more confident with and it is pop, baby.
(audience cheering)
Niecy nash: All right.
Let's take a look at your two song choices.
"soak up the sun", sheryl crow.
"u can't touch this", m.C. Hammer.
How do you feel about that?
Rubina bernabe: Oh, scary.
It sounds scary, I'm not going to lie.
I'm terrified.
Oh, ok.
I'm going to go with my gut,
And my gut says I'm a california girl.
I do like to soak up the sun.
So let's go with sheryl crow, "soak up the sun".
Niecy nash: Ok. (audience cheering)
This is for $25,000 guaranteed,
And we're going to need six missing words.
Rubina bernabe: Let's do it.
Niecy nash: Ricky, let's do it.
♪ I'm going to soak up the sun
♪ I'm going to tell everyone to lighten up ♪
♪ I'm going to tell 'em that I've got no one to blame ♪
♪ 'cause every time I feel oh
(audience laughing) (audience groans)
Rubina bernabe: Every time I feel, oh.
Niecy nash: Yeah, so sheryl crow said,
"got no one to blame, for every time".
You said,
"I feel, oh".
Rubina bernabe: That is what I said.
Ok, it looks like I'm going to be
Using some backups right now.
Niecy nash: Ok.
Would you like to see some different words on the board
Or would you like to use your backup singer?
Rubina bernabe: Let's go with words first.
Niecy nash: Which words would you like to see?
Rubina bernabe: I think I want to start
With word number three.
Niecy nash: Please reveal the correct word
For line three.
♪ for every time I feel lame I
Rubina bernabe: Hmm, hmm, hmm.
I got one more.
Niecy nash: You want to use another word?
Ok. Rubina bernabe: I do want to
Use another word, yes.
Niecy nash: Which line?
Rubina bernabe: Let's do number six.
Niecy nash: Please reveal the correct word
For line number six.
Does that give you any more inspiration on
What the two missing lyrics could be?
Rubina bernabe: Oh, you know.
Wow, this is.
♪ not how I thought this would go ♪
(audience laughs)
(rubina laughing) (audience cheering)
Niecy nash: Do you want to use your backup singer?
Rubina bernabe: You know what?
I'm going to have to bring up my backup singer.
Niecy nash: All right, come on up here whitney.
(audience cheering) (audience applauding)
Rubina bernabe: Yeah.
Niecy nash: How are you doing, ms. Whitney?
Whitney: Woo, I'm doing great.
Rubina's doing great.
Niecy nash: How are you feeling
About the lyrics she has up here now?
Whitney: I feel like you're on the right track.
Rubina bernabe: Thank you.
Whitney: In the previous line it was lighten up.
Rubina bernabe: Yeah.
Whitney: So I feel like it's,
"I'm looking up".
♪ for every time I feel lame I'm looking up ♪
Rubina bernabe: Ok, great.
(audience laughs)
Niecy nash: Well, let me tell you something,
My beautiful burgundy haired friends.
I would love to see you guys take a crack at it together.
Rubina bernabe: Yeah.
Whitney: Ok.
Yeah, let's do it.
Rubina bernabe: Let's do it.
Niecy nash: All right.
Rubina bernabe: Come on, we got this.
Niecy nash: Make it happen, ricky.
♪ I'm going to soak up the sun
♪ I'm going to tell everyone to lighten up ♪
♪ I'm going to tell 'em that I've got no one to blame ♪
♪ for every time I feel lame I'm looking up ♪
♪ feel lame
Whitney: If you were feeling
Lame. Rubina bernabe: Lame,
What would I do? Whitney: What would you do?
Rubina bernabe: Right, exactly. Would I look up?
Whitney: You would want to look up,
Or loosen up. Rubina bernabe: Yeah,
'cause I want to soak up the sun.
Whitney: Yeah. Rubina bernabe: Right.
That's where the sun is.
Whitney: That is where the sun is.
Niecy nash: I can really tell these two are friends.
(both laugh) (audience laughs)
Ok.
Whitney: Ok.
Niecy nash: You can lock in these lyrics.
If they are correct, you bank $25,000.
If it's wrong, you walk away with nothing,
Or you can bow out with $10,000.
Whitney: That's all you, girl.
Rubina bernabe: I know.
Niecy nash: Ok, whitney, I'm going to let you
Take a seat right over there.
Rubina bernabe: Thanks, wins. Whitney: You got this.
Niecy nash: Thank you so much,
(audience cheering)
And I'm going to ask you,
Small and mighty, what would you like to do?
Rubina bernabe: Huh.
(dramatic music)
You know...
(jazzy music) (audience cheering)
Niecy nash: Welcome back to "don't forget the lyrics".
So far rubina has knocked down
Three songs and banked $10,000,
(audience cheering)
But we want to get her closer to a million.
All right, before the break sheryl crow said,
"got no one to blame, for every time".
You said.
♪ for every time I feel lame I'm ♪
Rubina bernabe: You know, if I don't feel
Confident about it, I would rather walk away with something.
I'm not much of a gambler. (audience cheering)
Yeah, I think I'm going to have to bow out.
Not where I thought I was going to bow out at,
But again, I'm just grateful so.
(audience applauding) (audience cheering)
Niecy nash: All right, you are bowing out.
We should take a look and see what the correct answer is.
(audience groaning)
Looking and lookin', we would have given you that.
You would have $25,000 right now, but it's ok.
You are walking away with $10,000.
(audience cheering)
(whitney cheering)
Everybody make some noise for rubina.
(audience cheering)
Next time, more singers, more songs, more missing words,
And $1 million on "don't forget the lyrics".
Mwah!
Goodnight.
(jazzy music) (audience applauding)
