NARRATOR: Her dream wedding.
NIECY NASH: Ooh.

NARRATOR: Is also his backup.
NIECY NASH: Shut the front door.
NARRATOR: His game?
BEAU MASON: Lock in those lyrics!

NIECY NASH: You're like a human jukebox.
NARRATOR: But when he needs her most...
BEAU MASON: Oh, I'm going to go to my backup singer.
NARRATOR: Will she be the iceberg
that turns this love boat...
BEAU MASON: I'm kind of worried.
NARRATOR: Into the Titanic?
NIECY NASH: Are you going to take her advice?
NARRATOR: Find out...

Niecy Nash!
(AUDIENCE CHEERING) (UPBEAT MUSIC)
NIECY NASH: Welcome to "Don't Forget The Lyrics!"
This show is like a prom.
It's filled with great music
and everyone who comes here is trying to get lucky.
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
Only here, the luck means $1 million.
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
And we're all lucky to have this group with us.
It's Ricci and the Band.
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
Will our first rockstar also be our first millionaire?
Well, it's time to find out.
He travels the world working on cruise ships,
and tonight, he's hoping to sail away
with a million dollar song.
From Beaverton, Oregon,
put your hands together for Beau Mason!
(AUDIENCE CHEERING) (UPBEAT MUSIC)
BEAU MASON: Woo! Hey!
How you guys doing? (EXCLAIMING)
(UPBEAT MUSIC) (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)
NIECY NASH: Beau, welcome.
BEAU MASON: Hi, how you doing?
NIECY NASH: You think you could be a little more excited?
BEAU MASON: I can try.
NIECY NASH: Oh Lord, this is going to be a great time.
BEAU MASON: Yeah.
NIECY NASH: And working on cruise ships,
I want to hear about that.
BEAU MASON: So it's an interesting job, Niecy.
Basically, I sing for three hours a night.
I get to pretend to be a rock star.
It's great.
I do my kicks, I do my high notes,
but during the day, there's a lot of downtime.
So I'll take that time and I pick up little side jobs.
I've done everything on those ships.
I've helped sell jewelry.
I've run bingo.
I auction off paintings.
I do trivia.
It's great.
I meet people from around the world.
It's a fantastic job. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)
NIECY NASH: All right,
what else can you tell us about yourself?
Because a little birdie told me
that this guy is getting married.
(AUDIENCE CHEERING) (BEAU LAUGHING)
BEAU MASON: I am.
So if you take a look behind me, Niecy, there she is,
my wonderful fiancee, Lizzie.
NIECY NASH: Your backup singer is your fiancee.
BEAU MASON: She knows the songs I don't know.
I had to bring her and I needed the support.
NIECY NASH: Wow. OK.
So when's the big day?
BEAU MASON: It's later this year.
So we're planning the wedding.
I'm in charge of cake.
I've told her I want ice cream cake.
She says, "No," we're working on it.
But later this year, we're so excited.
NIECY NASH: OK, well you know the fact
that she said no, just go on and stick with it.
Whatever she says, you just say, "Yes, dear."
LIZZIE: Absolutely. (AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
BEAU MASON: Yes, dear.
NIECY NASH: There we go.
I like it. I like it.
You got a wedding to pay for.
Let's get you some money.
BEAU MASON: Let's do it.
NIECY NASH: All right, so here's how it's going to go.
If you give me the correct missing lyrics to 10 songs,
I'm going to give you $1 million.
(BO, AUDIENCE CHEERING)
Do you want to take a look at your categories?
BEAU MASON: Yes, I do.
NIECY NASH: Let's take a look.
And they are...
'60s Hip-Hop,
Foo Fighters, Love Songs,
Today's Hits, Pop, Glam Rock,
Disco, and Country.
All right, so the first song is worth $2,500
and the money keeps growing
right up to the million dollar song.
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
And if you make it to $25,000,
that money is guaranteed!
BEAU MASON: Woo! (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
NIECY NASH: Which category do you want to play for first?
BEAU MASON: The nice thing about working on the ships is
every night we do a different theme.
One night's country, one night's disco.
So I see themes I do up here.
I want to start with disco.
I'm a big disco man, Niecy.
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
Oh, yeah.
NIECY NASH: Babe.
BEAU MASON: Oh, yeah.
NIECY NASH: I like it.
I like the jacket.
Hopefully we get some moves.
Let's take a look at your two song choices and they are...
"Disco Inferno" by The Trammps.
"Right Back Where We Started From" by Maxine Nightingale.
Have you ever performed one of these songs?
I perform "Disco Inferno," so.
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
I got to tell you, Niecy,
we've got to go "Disco Inferno."
NIECY NASH: All right. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)
BEAU MASON: It's my song. I got my moves.
NIECY NASH: I love it!
All right, so for this song,
I am looking for five missing words.
BEAU MASON: OK.
NIECY NASH: And we're going to start it at the first verse.
BEAU MASON: OK.
NIECY NASH: Ricci, you know what to do.

The Trammps said,
"I heard somebody say."
You said, "Burn, baby, burn,
"disco inferno."
Are you feeling confident about this answer?
BEAU MASON: You know what, Niecy?
I'm feeling very confident about that.
NIECY NASH: What you want to do about it?
BEAU MASON: I'm going to lock in those lyrics!
NIECY NASH: All right.
BEAU MASON: Let's do it. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC) (IRON CLANKS)
NIECY NASH: You locked in those lyrics, Beau.
BEAU MASON: Hmm hmm.
NIECY NASH: If you are correct,
the entire line will turn green.

it will turn red and the game is over.
BEAU MASON: Hmm hmm.
NIECY NASH: So for $2,500,
is it burn, baby, burn,
disco inferno?

(CELEBRATORY MUSIC) (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
BEAU MASON: Woo. NIECY NASH: Yes.
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
You just gained 2,500!
You are on your way to the million-dollar song.
BEAU MASON: Let's do it.
NIECY NASH: Yeah, all right.
Let's try and double that right now.
This next song is worth $5,000.
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
All right, Beau, you won 2,500.
BEAU MASON: Hmm hmm.
NIECY NASH: That should cover the invitations
for the wedding. BEAU MASON: (LAUGHS) Yeah.
NIECY NASH: All right,
now you got a whole lot more stuff to pay for.
So which category is going to get us $5,000?
BEAU MASON: OK, well if we're going wedding theme,
Niecy, let's go Love Songs.
NIECY NASH: Ooh. (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
Now, have you sung a lot of love songs to your fiancee?
BEAU MASON: I sing her love songs every day, absolutely.
Does she love 'em all the time?
Maybe she's like "You're a little annoying,"
but all day, baby, love songs.
LIZZIE: Never.
NIECY NASH: Well, you know what?
When you marry somebody,
you're not only picking the person who you love,
you're picking the person who you love to be annoyed by.
So that's all right.
All right, let's take a look at your two song choices.
"Drops of Jupiter, (Tell Me)" by Train,
"Dreaming of You" by Selena.
BEAU MASON: OK, Niecy, I love Selena,
but growing up I sang a ton of Train.
So my dad's a singer, he's a cover band singer.
That's how I got into the whole cruise ship thing.
NIECY NASH: Oh, wow. OK.
BEAU MASON: Hmm hmm, so we would drive
to his bands together.
I would go to his shows,
we would work on Train songs in the car.
And so I'm going to go with "Drops of Jupiter."
NIECY NASH: OK. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)
For "Drops of Jupiter,"
I'm going to need three missing words
and the song is going to start at the top.
You ready?
BEAU MASON: I'm ready. Let's do it, Niecy.
NIECY NASH: He's ready, Ricci.

(AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)
All right, what is going to get you the money?
BEAU MASON: OK, Niecy.
I'm a glam rocker at heart,
but I want to save that for next round.
Right now I'm going to go with Pop.
Let's do Pop. NIECY NASH: Pop.
All right, let's take a look at your two song choices.
"Kiss On My List" by Daryl Hall and John Oates,
"Rich Girl" by Gwen Stefani, featuring Eve.
BEAU MASON: I know the Gwen Stefani song a little bit,
but I'm a big Hall & Oates guy.
Let's go, "Kiss On My List."
NIECY NASH: All right. (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
So for this particular song,
I am going to need four missing words.
BEAU MASON: OK.
NIECY NASH: And we'll start the song
before the first chorus.
BEAU MASON: Ready, Niecy. Let's do it.
NIECY NASH: Hit it, Ricci.

All right, Daryl Hall and John Oates said,
"Because your kiss is what I miss when I."
You said, "Turn out the light."
BEAU MASON: I'm confident with three of those words.
NIECY NASH: OK.
BEAU MASON: I know turn and the light are good.
I think out, I'm not sure if out is turn out the light
or turn off the light.
NIECY NASH: Let's talk about your backups.
First, you brought your beautiful fiancee Lizzie with you.
BEAU MASON: Hmm hmm. (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
Woo!
NIECY NASH: She can help you but only for one song.
Or you have five words.
If at any point you are unsure about a word,
just tell us which one it is
and we will give you the correct word.
Now you can use your words all at once
or you can spread them out across the game.
Would you like to use one of your backups?
BEAU MASON: Yeah, I would.
So I'm going to save Lizzie,
I'm saving her for other categories.
I'd like to use one of my words.
NIECY NASH: OK, which word
would you like to see correct?
BEAU MASON: Can I see word number two, please?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC) (IRON CLANKS)
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
OK. OK.
NIECY NASH: Are you feeling confident now?
BEAU MASON: Niecy, I'm feeling confident.
NIECY NASH: What do you want to do about it, my friend?
BEAU MASON: I want to lock in those lyrics!

You just made $10,000!
Only seven songs left to the million.
But first,
are you ready to turn it into 25,000?
BEAU MASON: Let's do it.
NIECY NASH: Well that money is going to be guaranteed
if Beau knows the missing words
on "Don't Forget The Lyrics!"
(AUDIENCE CHEERING) (UPBEAT MUSIC)
Welcome back to "Don't Forget The Lyrics!"
So far, Beau has banked $10,000!
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
And he still has his backup singer, Lizzie,
and four words, if he needs them.
Now we want to get him to a million,
but the game is about to get harder.
(AUDIENCE MURMURING)
There are six categories left.
BEAU MASON: Ooh.
NIECY NASH: This next song is worth $25,000
and that money is guaranteed.
You just got to get it right.
BEAU MASON: Let's go. NIECY NASH: All right,
I think I know the answer to this question,
but what would you do with $25,000?
BEAU MASON: So, Niecy, we're going to get married.
That'll definitely cover the invitations and the cake.
Fantastic. (AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
And then my parents moved to Orlando a couple years ago
and they're my best friends in the world.
And so Lizzie and I would take that money,
we'd move down to Orlando to be close to the parents.
LIZZIE: Hmm hmm.
NIECY NASH: I had to look over
to see if she was shaking her head
because you know, let me tell you something.
Some people have in-laws and other people have outlaws.
You all know I'm not lying.
(BO, AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
And so I was just checking.
She looked very happy when you said that, so, OK.
Which category is going to get you moved down to Orlando?
'60s, Hip-Hop, Foo Fighters,
Today's Hits, Glam Rock and Country.
BEAU MASON: I told ya, I am a glam rocker at heart.
On the cruise ships,
this is my formal night attire,
but normally I'm in leather pants
with sparkly shirts and eyeliner.
(AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Niecy, let's go Glam Rock. Let's get it.
NIECY NASH: Glam Rock! (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
All right, I like it
and I'm ready to see you rock out.
Let's take a look at your two song choices.
"Smokin' in the Boys' Room" by Motley Crue,
or "Ballroom Blitz" by Sweet.
BEAU MASON: OK.
NIECY NASH: Have you ever rocked out
to either of these songs?
BEAU MASON: I haven't rocked out to 'em recently,
but I know "Smokin' in the Boys' Room" better.
So I'm going to go with "Smokin' in the Boys' Room," Niecy.
NIECY NASH: OK. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)
For $25,000 guaranteed,
I'm going to need seven missing words.
And we'll start the song at the first verse.

BEAU MASON: OK, so I got to be honest,
this is like the one line in the song
that I think I know.
There's only one word in here that I'm a little iffy on
so I want to go to my backups.
It's either smoking ain't allowed in school
or smoking's not allowed in school.

So let's keep it moving.
This next song is worth $75,000.
Let's see what category is going to get you $75,000.
'60s, Hip-Hop, Foo Fighters or Today's Hits.
BEAU MASON: OK,
I brought Lizzie here for a few categories.
Lizzie knows today's hits.
I know I'm OK.
I know she knows them.
So we're going to go with the Lizzie category.
We're going to go with Today's Hits.

Talk to me, my friend.
BEAU MASON: Hmm hmm.
NIECY NASH: $100,000 is monumental.
How would that kind of money change your life?
BEAU MASON: OK, so with the 100,000,
all of a sudden that's buying a house money
and having kids money.
That's the deal. NIECY NASH: Oh.
BEAU MASON: We're so - oh yeah, having kids.
Ask her, she wants 10.
NIECY NASH: Is that true?
You want 10 kids?
LIZZIE: Maybe like six.
NIECY NASH: Oh, you going to need a little bit...
BEAU MASON: Six?
NIECY NASH: I was going to say, let me tell you something.
Whether you have six or 10,
you going to need a little bit more money.
So which category is going to get you
to be able to take care of six kids?
'60s, Hip-Hop, or Foo Fighters?
BEAU MASON: OK, well honestly,
my parents listen to tons of '60s music.
I think it's the best music ever made.
So I'm going to go '60s.
Let's go '60s. (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
NIECY NASH: OK, let's take a look
at your two song choices.
"Build Me Up Buttercup" by The Foundations,
or "Oh, Pretty Woman" by Roy Orbison & the Candy Men.
BEAU MASON: Believe it or not,
in high school I was big show choir guy.
NIECY NASH: I'm surprised!
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
BEAU MASON: And my first one I had a big solo in
was "Build Me Up Buttercup."
NIECY NASH: Shut the front door!
BEAU MASON: Hmm hmm.
NIECY NASH: Isn't today your lucky day?
BEAU MASON: Today, it's my very lucky day, that's right.
So we're going to do "Build Me Up Buttercup," Niecy.
Let's do it.
NIECY NASH: OK. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)
Now listen, you get this right
and $100,000 is yours!
(AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)
BEAU MASON: Let's go.
NIECY NASH: I am looking for eight missing words
and we're going to start it from the top.
BEAU MASON: Let's do it, Niecy.
NIECY NASH: Hit it, Ricci.

"You know that I have from the start"?

(UPBEAT MUSIC) (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
Welcome back to "Don't Forget The Lyrics!"
Beau is having an incredible night
and has banked $100,000 for his new life
with his gorgeous fiancee.
He still has his backup singer
and two words left if he needs them.
Right now, we are playing for $150,000!
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
But this game is about to get harder.
(AUDIENCE MURMURING)
Beau, talk to me.
You are getting close to that million bucks.
BEAU MASON: Hmm hmm.
NIECY NASH: What is going through your head right now?
BEAU MASON: I feel great.
I'm freaking out.
So that's a down payment on a house right there.
We got it, 100K.
The cruise contract I'm on right now is out of Orlando.
I took it specifically so I could be by my parents
and so now we can move there.
We can just do that now.
I'm super grateful and I'm excited
and I'm ready to keep going.
Let's do it!
NIECY NASH: All right, this song is worth $150,000.
And you have two categories left, Hip-Hop and Foo Fighters.
Which one is going to get you 150,000?
BEAU MASON: OK, here's the deal, Niecy.
I know one Foo Fighters song.
(AUDIENCE MURMURING)
I know one Foo Fighters song!
I know like five or six hip-hop songs.
NIECY NASH: Hmm hmm.
BEAU MASON: So with that math, we're going to go Hip-Hop.
Let's do it.
NIECY NASH: All right. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)
Let's see what your two song choices are.
"Ice Ice, Baby" by Vanilla Ice,
or "Airplanes" by B.O.B. featuring Hayley Williams.
BEAU MASON: Oh my gosh.
NIECY NASH: Do you know these songs?
NIECY NASH: OK, so I'm having my round right now.
"Airplanes " in middle school was my favorite song.
(LIZZIE LAUGHING) Literally my favorite song.
She's laughing because she knows it.
When it comes on, I hit it. I do it.
I know "Airplanes," I know it.
OK, we're going to go with "Airplanes " by B.O.B.
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
We're going to go with "Airplanes."
I can't believe it's on there.
NIECY NASH: For $150,000, Beau,
I am going to need nine missing words.
And we'll start it from the top.
BEAU MASON: Let's do it.
NIECY NASH: Ricci? Let's do it.

NIECY NASH: That was beyond impressive.
BEAU MASON: I can't believe that song is here.
Oh my gosh.
NIECY NASH: Let's take a look
at your favorite middle school song, all right.
B.O.B. featuring Hayley Williams said,
"I could use a dream or a genie or a wish to."
You said, "go back to a place much simpler than this."
How are you feeling about this answer?
BEAU MASON: I feel really good.
NIECY NASH: I asked you for nine words.
You gave me 50. (AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
BEAU MASON: I know, well.
Just in case.
You can keep those other ones.
NIECY NASH: Thank you. Thank you so much.
BEAU MASON: OK, the only word I'm,
I could to go back to a place much simpler than this.
It might be to go back to a time much simpler than this.
That's the only one I'm kind of worried about.
So I'm going to use one of my backup words.
NIECY NASH: OK, which line
would you like to see correct?
BEAU MASON: Can you show me word five, please?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC) (IRON CLANKS)
Oh. (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
You know, it would be nice if I just didn't know it
and I could walk with my money
'cause I'm gambling like $75,000 right now.
But Niecy, I know this song.
I know that's right.
Niecy, let's lock in those lyrics!
NIECY NASH: All right.
You locked in those lyrics, my friend, for $150,000.
Is it, "go back to a place much simpler than this"?
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC) (DRUMS ROLLING)
(CELEBRATORY MUSIC) (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
NIECY NASH: Everybody, Beau just won $150,000!
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
BEAU MASON: Oh my God.
NIECY NASH: Take a look at the money ladder.
$250,000 is next! (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
AUDIENCE: Beau, Beau, Beau, Beau, Beau, Beau!
(AUDIENCE CHANTING, CHEERING)
NIECY NASH: How does that make you feel?
BEAU MASON: I'm going to talk about how "Airplanes "
by B.O.B. showed up forever.
Forever, I will talk about that!
Oh my gosh.
NIECY NASH: All right, when we come back,
Beau is playing for a quarter of a million dollars,
but he has to take on the Foo Fighters.
He says he only knows one of their songs.
We'll find out if this magical night will continue next,
on "Don't Forget The Lyrics!"
(UPBEAT MUSIC) (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
Welcome back to "Don't Forget The Lyrics!"
We're in the middle of what could be an historic night.
Beau has knocked down eight songs
and banked $150,000! (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
Two songs left between Beau and $1 million.
But first, there's a little matter of $250,000.
That's next, and there's just one category left.
Beau, what would $250,000 mean to you
and your lovely fiancee?
BEAU MASON: We're getting into the portion now
where I can buy my parents' house
so I can pay off their mortgage.
NIECY NASH: I love that.
BEAU MASON: My dad, I remember he took me in his car.
He went through a little midlife crisis, honestly.
He's like, "I want to rock, wow."
So he took my sister and I to this random house
and he gets in there and all of a sudden,
we start hearing all these drums and these guitars
and all these things.
Turns out he took us to his like cover band audition.
He didn't tell my mom, he didn't tell anybody.
NIECY NASH: Wow.
BEAU MASON: But he got in the band.
And so from there on,
I was traveling with him to all these shows,
hearing all these songs.
And so it would be great to win this money
and pay them back
'cause they're the only reason I'm here doing this.
NIECY NASH: Well, let me tell you,
you take down this song,
you get a shot at $1 million.
All right?
BEAU MASON: Let's go!
NIECY NASH: There's only one category left
and it's Foo Fighters.
Let's check out your two song choices.
"Learn To Fly" or "Best Of You."
BEAU MASON: OK.
AUDIENCE: Best of you!
BEAU MASON: I know, honestly,
I don't know "Learn To Fly," at all.
I think I know at least part of the chorus,
to "Best Of You."
I'm going to roll with "Best Of You."
Let's do it. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)
Hopefully, Lizzie's a secret Foo Fighters fan
and she can come in and win us
an extra $100,000.
Let's go.
NIECY NASH: OK, well, you get this right.
BEAU MASON: Let's go.
NIECY NASH: And you will bank
a quarter of a million dollars.
BEAU MASON: OK.
NIECY NASH: For this song,
I am looking for nine missing words.
(AUDIENCE MURMURING)
BEAU MASON: Nine? OK, we can do nine, let's go.
BEAU MASON: All right?
And the song is going to start at the second verse.
BEAU MASON: Perfect, let's do it.
NIECY NASH: Let's do it, Ricci.

Foo Fighters said, "Has someone taken your faith
"It's real."
You said, "The pain you feel,
"the best, the best, the."
BEAU MASON: Ah.
NIECY NASH: Are you confident in this answer?
BEAU MASON: I know the first line is right.
I know that's right.
NIECY NASH: OK.
BEAU MASON: You know what?
NIECY NASH: Well, you still have a word you can use.
BEAU MASON: Hmm hmm.
NIECY NASH: And you have your beautiful fiancee.
You might as well use them both because this is it.
This is the shot.
BEAU MASON: Let's go.
OK, well...
NIECY NASH: Use it all.
BEAU MASON: I'd like to bring
my beautiful fiancee, Lizzie, up.
Let's use the backup singer.
Let's go. (AUDIENCE CHEERS)
NIECY NASH: OK. BEAU MASON: OK, baby.
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
LIZZIE: I got to be honest,
I don't know this song at all.
BEAU MASON: What?
LIZZIE: No. (AUDIENCE MURMURING)
NIECY NASH: You don't know this song?
You don't know the answer?
LIZZIE: Niecy, not even a little bit.
NIECY NASH: Not even a little bit.
OK, but do you have any idea about this line
in terms of maybe you could help him out
to figure where he wants to use his backup word?
LIZZIE: I do feel like you have that first line right.
I think feel and real rhyming is a good hint there.
BEAU MASON: I know that's right.
LIZZIE: It makes sense. BEAU MASON: Yeah.
LIZZIE: I think you should use the backup word
on the last word.
BEAU MASON: OK, you're the...
LIZZIE: 'Cause 'the' doesn't make sen.
BEAU MASON: Watch, I was listening. Yes, dear.
NIECY NASH: Hey! (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
LIZZIE: There you go! BEAU MASON: Yeah!
NIECY NASH: Give it up! He got that right!
You got that right!
(BEAU EXCLAIMS) (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)
NIECY NASH: OK. Thank you so much. LIZZIE: So helpful.
NIECY NASH: Beautiful fiancee.
You can step right over there.
All right, so are you going to take her advice
and change the last word?
Or what are you going to do there?
BEAU MASON: Yeah, let's do that.
So let's use our last backup word
and I want to see word nine.
(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC) (IRON CLANKS)
The pain you feel,
someone taking your faith.
It real, the pain you feel.
The best, I must confess.
Oh my gosh. (HEAVILY SIGHS)
OK, change it to, "the pain you feel,
"the best, I must confess."
(DRAMATIC MUSIC) (IRON CLANKS)
Oh my gosh.
Those words could be right.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC) (IRON CLANKS)
(UPBEAT MUSIC) (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)
Oh my gosh.
Those words could be right.
OK, here's the deal.
NIECY NASH: Let's go over where we are right now.
BEAU MASON: OK, let's do it.
NIECY NASH: All right?
So right now, you can either lock in those lyrics
and if they are right,
you will bank $250,000
and then have a shot at the million dollar song.
BEAU MASON: Hmm hmm. (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
NIECY NASH: If you are wrong,
you will drop all the way down to $25,000
or you can bow out at $150,000.
What would you like to do?
BEAU MASON: OK, Niecy, here's the deal.
That might be right.
And I maybe could go on to the million,
but I couldn't forgive myself
for leaving 125 on the table if it was wrong. (EXHALES)
But our wedding's bigger.
I can move down
and we can start our family with the parents.
And I would never, ever forgive myself
if I locked in those lyrics and they were wrong.
So Niecy, I'm going to go ahead and bow out.
It's been great. NIECY NASH: OK.
BEAU MASON: I'm going to bow out.
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
NIECY NASH: You're going to bow out.
And you are leaving,
Beau, with $150,000! (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
LIZZIE: Beau, Beau, Beau! (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS)
NIECY NASH: $150,000!
BEAU MASON: We'll take it.
NIECY NASH: Let's take look and see
what the correct answer is.
BEAU MASON: Don't tell me that's right.
Whew. OK.
NIECY NASH: "The pain you feel,
"your trust, you must confess."
You did good.
You made the right decision!
And you are going home with $150,000!
(AUDIENCE CHEERING) Let's hear it for Beau.
Next time, more singers, more songs, more missing words.
And one million right here
on "Don't Forget The Lyrics!"
Good night!
