From Universal Studios Hollywood, it's "Password"!
And now here's the host of our show, Keke Palmer.
[ Cheers and applause ]
**
Yes. Whoo!
Welcome to "Password."
Tonight we are celebrating the Paris Olympics
and cheering on the amazing athletes on Team USA!
Let's hear it!
[ Cheers and applause ]
And in the spirit of competition,
these two contestants will have a shot at $25,000
with some help from our all-star guests.
Here to play with us tonight --
first, he's the host of "The Tonight Show,"
the one, the only, my guy Jimmy Fallon.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Yes!
Thank you!
Hey!
The best.
[ Cheers and applause ]
We got this.
And second, here to help us play tonight
is three-time Olympic medalist
and world-renowned alpine skier Lindsey Vonn.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Oh!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Keke: You look so beautiful.
Mwah.
Yes.
Hey. Hi, guys.
Welcome.
Now, Lindsey, are you super psyched
for the summer games in Paris?
Oh, I am so excited. I'm honestly so jealous.
Can you imagine competing in the Olympics
next to the Eiffel Tower?
Oh, my gosh. I know that's right.
Honestly, I would prefer to be a summer athlete.
Oh, my gosh. I hate the cold.
Well, I'm so glad that you're here.
I'm so glad that you're both here.
And I know you made some new friends backstage,
so introduce us to your teammate, Jimmy.
This is Christian, everybody. Hey, Christian.
And Christian is originally from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania,
but he's studying to be a dentist.
Oh, wow. Have you always had great teeth?
Yeah, I'm like, your teeth are nice. Yeah.
No, actually I haven't.
That's what made me want to be a dentist.
So, yeah, I'm out here in Los Angeles studying dentistry.
I'm very proud to say
I'm a first-generation college student, so...
Whoo! Ooh! Come on, now.
Amazing. Thank you. Thank you very much.
I love that. I'm sure your parents are extremely proud.
Now, Lindsey, introduce us to who you are playing with.
I'm playing with Jackie from Bowie, Maryland.
Jackie with the beautiful. Look at those eyes.
Jackie!
She was actually on the cover of Women's Running magazine.
Now, wait a minute. I was.
You ran the Washington, D.C., marathon.
I did. And you were on the cover because?
I came in last place. [ Laughter ]
That's a twist.
Yeah, well, you know when the juggler is passing you,
you know you're in trouble.
But it was more about perseverance, you know,
because I had a young daughter, and I wanted to show her
that you can do whatever you set your mind to.
Oh, my gosh.
I got to be on the cover with the winner.
But it was -- Both of us made it through.
Oh, my gosh. I love that. Thank you all for being here.
It's going to be fun. And now it's time to play...
"Password"! "Password"!
[ Speaking indistinctly ]
We got this. We got this. The rules are simple.
When I hand you a password, you'll give a one-word clue
to get your partner to guess that password.
The password is worth six points
if you can get it on the first clue,
five points on the second clue, and so on.
The first team to 15 points wins Round 1
in this best-out-of-three battle.
Sometimes you look at a password
and just know you can get your partner to guess it in one clue.
When that happens, you can tell me
that you want to Shoot the Moon.
[ Cheers and applause ]
If you are successful in getting your partner
to guess the password,
I'll give you two extra points for a total of eight.
Are y'all ready? Yes!
Let's play.
We got it. We got it. We got it. Alright.
Jimmy, as always, you do the honors.
You want to play or you want to pass?
The password is...
Ooh.
I want to...
pass. Ooh.
Oh, wow. I'm surprised.
Alright. Okay.
It's to you, Lindsey.
Okay. Uh...
Vampire.
[ Audience ooh'ing ]
Dracula.
Mm. That's not the password.
It's all good. We're going to you, Jimmy.
This is for five points.
Bulbs.
Fangs.
That is not the password.
We're going back over here to you two.
Okay. Breath.
Okay, we've got vampire, we've got bulbs,
and we've got breath.
[ Whispering ] Breath.
Teeth.
Ohh.
Okay. We're coming back to you, Jimmy.
We've got vampire. We got bulbs.
We've got breath.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
Onion.
Garlic. Yeah! There we go.
Come on, Jimmy. Let's go, buddy.
We got this. That was excellent. Excellent.
You guys got it. Three points.
Yeah.
The game is just heating up.
No, that was good. No, that was good. Very good.
Thanks for passing that one. That was great.
That was good. So now we're on you, Jackie.
You want to play or do you want to pass?
The password is...
I'll play. You'll play.
Facebook...?
Instagram.
Yes!
Jimmy: That was good!
That was good! That was good!
That was good! That was good.
So good, so good. Yes, yes, yes.
You guys got six points.
You guys got three points. In the lead.
Jimmy, you guys are trailing.
Do you want to play or do you want to pass?
The password is...
Oh.
Uh, pass just 'cause it's Olympic week.
I just wanted a little respect.
I know. So much respect. I appreciate you so much.
Jackie: Yes.
You got this. Olympian.
[ Laughter ]
That somehow doesn't help. Um...
Bandana.
Mullet? Keke: Mm.
That's not the password. I love that answer.
Bandana was the first clue.
This is for five points.
Munchie.
Oh. Scrunchie.
Yeah! Yeah, Jimmy, let's go.
Jimmy! That's what I'm talking about.
Come on, now! That's what I'm talking about.
That's how you play the game. That's how you play the game.
Very good. Very good. If done well,
that pass can really set you up for a good slam dunk.
Right? Yes. It's all about the pass.
Jackie, that's for you. But he uses scrunchies, so...
This is for you, Christian. It's for me.
It's on you, Jackie. You guys are still trailing.
Do you want to play, or do you want to pass?
The password is...
Oh, ooh.
You can always Shoot the Moon, too,
if you're feeling confident.
I'm not shooting the moon on this one.
And, you know, I think I'm going to pass
to my dear friend Christian.
Oh! Really?
So much respect. Yeah.
I think I would like to Shoot the Moon.
Whoa!
Christian, you have decided...
Way to go. ...to Shoot the Moon.
**
[ Cheers and applause ]
That means you have one clue to get your partner
to say the password for eight points.
Are you ready? Ready?
If you get this... Mm-hmm.
...you'll also win Round 1.
Ooh.
But if you don't! Oh, my gosh.
[ Laughter ]
...then Jackie has a chance to steal it.
I'm just saying. Just saying.
Yeah, I'm ready, buddy. You're ready. You're ready.
I'm so scared.
Wooly...?
Mammoth. Yes!
Yes! Oh, my goodness.
Wow! Whoa! Whoa!
Dude, Shoot the Moon! Shoot the Moon!
That was great. Expertly played.
Shoot the Moon for the win! Yes! Yes!
That is the end of the first round,
where Christian has a 1-0 lead.
When we return, we'll switch up the teams
and go for the gold.
Keep it right here for more
of our "Password" celebration of the Paris Olympics.
The funny thing here is, I know that you and Jimmy
have some sort of history.
So, I was moving to Manhattan,
and I ran into Jimmy on the street.
And he came over, and he was the nicest person in the world.
Jimmy. Let me -- Can I see this photo?
And I was with my dad, and he was so nice to him.
This is fantastic. It was.
And you taught me that there was magic
in New York, and I should do it.
And I moved there, and my whole life changed.
I met my husband. Oh, my God.
Everything. I had my kids. Now look at us.
It was amazing. Full circle. Together again.
Yeah, I know. It's amazing.
**
Welcome back to "Password's"
celebration of the Paris Olympics.
During the break, Jimmy and Lindsey switched partners.
Christian won the first round.
But remember, you have to win two rounds in our
best-out-of-three showdown for a shot at $25,000.
It's Round 2, and now the passwords
are going to get a little bit tougher. Mm-hmm.
But to help you out, we'll give you a category
that relates to all the passwords in this round.
Let's see tonight's category.
The category is...
Christian: Alright. Mm-hmm.
Let's play. I'm ready.
Now, you guys are in the lead. So, Jimmy,
it's on you if you want to play or if you want to pass.
The password is...
Passwords that have rings.
I'll play. Okay. He's playing.
Engaged.
Diamond.
That's not the password.
We're going over here to you, Lindsey.
It is passwords that have rings.
Almost.
[ Buzzer ] Oh, no!
What?
So the judges are saying that it was the gesture...
Oh, man! Come on. ...that got that buzz.
You lose your turn. I can't help it.
We're back over here to you, Jimmy.
The first clue was engaged. The second one was almost,
and it had an illegal hand gesture.
[ Laughter ]
French.
[ Laughter ]
Fiancée! Yes!
Yes! Yes!
[ Indistinct shouting ]
We got this. We got this. We got this.
We got it. We got it. Never give up!
Never give up. Come on. Yes. Never give up.
You guys just scored a clean four points.
That was so good. Oh, my God. It was so good.
This is for you, Jackie. Good.
This is for you. I'm sitting on my hands.
Christian, it's on you if you want to play
or if you want to pass it.
The password is...
Oh.
Passwords that have rings.
I'm going to pass.
Ooh. Gonna pass.
Thank you so much, Christian.
Thank you. Jimmy: We got this.
We got this. I'm not worried.
You're not worried at all, right?
Darts.
Bullseye. Yes!
Come on, Jimmy. Wow.
Come on, Jimmy!
That was good. That was good.
I really love the way that she said darts.
You said darts like a bullseye. Darts.
Darts. She said it like it was a bullseye.
Darts. I felt the bullseye in that.
Very good. Oh, my gosh!
Yes! You guys are trailing,
so, Lindsey, it's on you if you want to play
or if you want to pass.
The password is...
Mm.
Passwords that have rings.
I'll play it. Alright. She's gonna play it.
Sumo.
Wrestling. Yeah! Yes!
Let's go. Yes! Yes!
Yeah!
Oh, my gosh.
Well done. That was fantastic.
That was good. That was good.
You guys got six points. Alright, we're back in it.
Jackie is still in the lead with 10.
We're on the board.
So I'm going over to you, Christian.
Do you want to play, or do you want to pass?
The password is...
Passwords that have rings.
I'm going to play.
Alright, he's gonna play.
Here we go.
Knock.
That face is scaring me, Christian.
Knock.
Door?
Okay, it wasn't the password, but that's fine.
Thinking rings, door. I got this.
Now, if you do this... I got this.
...Jackie is tied up with Christian.
I got this. Okay!
I got this. Jackie: You got it.
Jackie, say whatever you want.
Give your a friend at home a shout-out.
Say whatever you want. Colette!
Doorbell. Yes!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Come on, Colette. Yes!
That was so good. It's alright.
Come on!
Our contestants are tied at one round apiece,
which means
we go to a tie breaker. Jimmy and Lindsey
have been great clue-givers so far tonight,
but now it's time for the real pro to step in.
That's right. It's me, Keke Palmer.
Yes!
It's Christian versus Jackie in a head to head
showdown for a chance to play for $25,000.
Yes!
Now, here's how it works.
In this envelope, I have one final password.
As I give clues, either one of you can ring in at any time.
If you're right, you'll move on to the bonus round.
But if you're wrong, you're out.
Are you guys -- Hey, Keke,
before you open the envelope, watch this trick. Yeah.
Okay.
[ Laughter ]
Sorry. I got to go to the chiropractor.
I got to go to the chiropractor.
Okay. On your feet, please.
Hands at the ready for a shot
at $25,000. Good luck.
That was so sweet. She said good luck.
Oh, my gosh. I love the love.
That's the Olympic spirit right there.
Yeah.
Are you guys ready? We're ready.
Your first clue is...
Zuko.
[ Ding! ]
Jackie, you rang in first.
If you're right, you're moving on to the bonus round
for a chance at $25,000.
What is the password?
Grease.
That's the password!
[ Cheers and applause ]
That was a hard one.
Oh, my God! I love you!
[ Jimmy shouting indistinctly ]
You were amazing. Thank you.
Congratulations to Jackie. She's just won the game.
Sadly, we got to say bye to you, Christian. You were awesome.
Thanks for playing with us.
But don't go anywhere, because Jackie is gonna play for $25,000
when we come back for more
as "Password" celebrates the Paris Olympics.
**
Welcome back to "Password."
Tonight we are celebrating the Paris Olympics.
Jackie has won our game and now has a chance to play
with both Jimmy and Lindsey to win $25,000.
Jackie, now, when you win this $25,000,
what are you planning to do with it?
I really want to donate some money
to the Facial Pain organization. I suffer from
a chronic condition called trigeminal neuralgia.
I am completely in remission. I had brain surgery,
and I am here today. Oh, God bless you.
So I'm really excited. Yes. Oh, my gosh. Jackie.
That is so awesome. I love that you want
to give back to something that gave to you.
Yes.
Well, here's how the bonus round works.
We're going to give you 10 passwords
beginning with the letter B
and continuing through each letter to the letter K.
You will be the clue giver and start
by choosing one celebrity to be the guesser.
Now, you'll have 30 seconds
to get as many passwords as you can.
Then we'll take a break, and the other celebrity will
take over to guess the remaining passwords in 30 seconds.
For every correct answer, you'll get $1,000.
But if you sweep the board and you get all 10,
we'll send you home with $25,000.
Yes!
So which celebrity do you want to play with first?
I'm going to start with Jimmy. Let's go. Alright.
I love it. Let's do it.
Hopefully we do it all. If not, you got to take it home.
We got this.
Alright. 30 seconds on the clock.
On your marks. Get set.

Uh, uh --
[ Buzzer ] Ah!
Oh, no. The Guinness had me cackling.
It's the Irish in me there. It's the Irish in me.
Sorry about that. Alright, good.
Well, you got three correct for a total of $3,000.
Yep. That's good. You come back.
But let's try and get to that $25,000, okay?
You can do it. Very powerful.
Yes. Lindsey, you're up next.
Lindsey, come on.
Alright, I'm coming. I'm coming. I'm coming.
And here's the good thing about this, Lindsey,
is you got those letters there,
the letters that help you know what it is.
You know what I mean? Okay. We got this. We got this. We got this.
You have seven passwords remaining.
You could be 30 seconds away from $25,000.
Yeah. We got this. Okay?
On your marks. Get set.
Kill it!
Okay. Gas.
Grill.
Milk.
Gallon. Yes.
Seek.

Uh, knee. Yep.
George. Bush.
Girl. Boy.
Past. Fetch.
Um, uh, go.
[ Buzzer ] Oh, my freaking gosh!
We were so close.
You know what it is? You guys kept
hearing her say pass, and she was saying past.
Past, future.
Oh! She was saying past.
I thought you said pass. Past, future.
It was the T. They could not hear that T.
You were incredible, Lindsey. You were incredible.
You were unbelievable. Now, you got nine correct,
and that's a total of $9,000. That's not too bad.
That's great!
But over here at "Password,"
we really want you to win big.
So let's try and get her some more with the Redemption Round.
How about that, right?
Let's get some more money in your pocket.
We got it. We got it. We got it. We got it.
We have one final password that could double your winnings,
sending you home with $18,000 instead. Okay?
Yes. You ready, guys?
$18,000? You got it.
Here comes your final password of the game.
Jackie, what is your final clue?
Spring...?
Alright. You're going to put these headphones on for me,
and I'm going to turn you around,
and they're going to get to talking.
Spring chicken? Spring fall? Spring chicken. Spring forward.
Spring, summer? Wait. Summer?
Spring, summer. Spring, summer.
She's going, she goes, "Spring..."
So spring. Forward?
Jump. Spring forward?
Is it spring break?
I got to get out of here. You're confusing me!
Wait, spring break. Spring break?
Spring break. Spring break?
I'm gonna go with you. [ Buzzer ]
You guys got to give me something.
Summer. Okay.
It's time. It's time to get down to it.
[ Sighs ] Jackie, to double your money,
what was the password?
I feel good about this.
Summer!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Thank you. I knew it. Oh, my gosh.
Yes!
Yes, yes, yes!
Jackie. I was so nervous.
You doubled your earnings.
You're going home with $18,000.
I was like spring break? Oh, my God. Were you like --
We will be right back after this
with two more contestants and a lot more "Password."
It was gonna be spring break.
Oh, my God. Summer made sense.
Break, spring break. No, I go, spring...?
Summer. That was great!
Keke: Two new contestants will have a shot to win $25,000.
Cereal. [serial]
Killer?
[ Laughter ]
The password here on NBC is not killer.
**
Welcome back to "Password."
We're here with our very special guests, Jimmy and Lindsey.
And they're joined by two new contestants ready to play
for a chance to win $25,000.
Tell us about your new partner, Jimmy.
This is Tara, and Tara's from Colorado.
And you play cup-in-hand kickball.
Ooh. Talking about sports --
Yeah, someone know what that is?
Uh, can you explain what cup-in-hand kickball is?
It's so fun, Jimmy. You have to hold
your beer while you're kicking and in the field.
Respect. You had me at beer.
That should be an Olympic sport.
That should be in the Olympics. Next summer Olympics,
let's go for it. Yeah. I love it.
Now, do you meet a lot of people that way?
Like, you know, do you impress the guys with this skill?
Yes. The team is coed, and you hang out
with everybody after at the bar,
so it's always a good chance for me to vet out the guys
who are too competitive or egotistical.
Or do they lose with grace, you know?
I love that.
Do they lose with grace? Yeah.
Thank you for being here with us.
And, Lindsey, who are you playing with today?
I have Michael from Virginia.
What's up, Michael?
He's a pastor, with your wife.
Yes. We're pastors over the young adult ministry. And so --
That's right! You can clap for that!
Now, I'm also aware that you and your entire family
wrote a children's book.
We did, we did. You've been doing your research, girl.
I have been. You know, what can I say?
I'll tell you what.
Well, you know, during the pandemic,
it was a crazy time out there.
And so my wife and I, we were talking. We said,
how are our kids going to remember this pandemic?
And so we actually ended up writing a book together,
because we wanted to challenge their creativity.
And the book was entitled "The Fruitables."
And so what it is, is there's a farm,
and there are vegetables warring against the fruits.
And a tomato rose onto the farm, and they're not sure,
is it a vegetable or is it a fruit?
They trying to figure this thing out, you understand?
That is so cute. Like, it's about to go down,
okay? It's going down.
Congratulate you and your beautiful family. Yes.
Well, I'm so glad that you guys are here.
We're going to have so much fun.
Now, get excited, because it's time to play...
"Password"! "Password"!
[ Cheers and applause ]
The first team to 15 points wins Round 1
in this best-out-of-three battle.
Remember, you can still Shoot the Moon, but be careful
because if you Shoot the Moon and miss,
your opponents will get a shot at those eight points.
Well, let's get to playing. Let's do it.
[ Speaking indistinctly ]
As always, Jimmy, you get the honors
if you want to play or you want to pass.
The password is...
Oh.
I think I'm going to pass on this.
Okay.
I want Lindsey to start it off. Okay.
Aloha! Oh, man!
[ Buzzer ]
Aloha! It's aloha!
Welcome to the club!
You -- Welcome to the club.
[ Laughter ]
Unfortunately, you said the password.
That means we have to award two points to the other team.
We got two, right? You got two points.
So, Michael, it's on you
if you want to play or if you want to pass.
The password is...
[ Audience ooh'ing ]
Keke?
Let's Shoot the Moon then if we gon' do this!
Let's go.
[ Jimmy speaking indistinctly ]
Let's go. What's going down?
Let's go. Oh, my gosh. Okay.
Michael, you have decided to Shoot the Moon.
Let's go. Okay.
**
[ Cheers and applause ]
That means you have one clue
to get your partner to say the password for eight points.
Take it away.
Okay.
**
Neptune...?
[ Audience ooh'ing ]
[ Laughter ]
I'm so going to get this wrong. Pluto?
Let's go! What'd I tell y'all we were doing?
That's what we do. That's what we do.
Jimmy: Wow! Lindsey: Yes!
I'm playing with an Olympian. I'm playing with an Olympian.
Wow. Tara: Wow. Good job, Lindsey!
Yes! Yes! That's what we do.
Now, that's a redemption.
That was not an easy password to do on one.
Who shoots the moon on Neptune?
I'm very impressed. You did it.
Eight points on the board just like that.
You're in the lead.
That was awesome. That was fantastic.
He redeemed me. Great partner.
It's on you, Jimmy.
Do you want to play, or do you want to pass?
The password is...
Oh.
Ooh.
Hmm.
Uh, I'm going to...
pass.
Okay.
Jimmy is passing it to you, Lindsey.
We got this.
Cereal. [serial]
Killer?
What did you say? Killer?
Oh, I get it.
I get it, I get it, I get it, I get it, I get it.
Yeah. I see -- I see where you were going with that.
I see where you were going with that.
I see where you were going with that. Yep.
That's fantastic!
Two points for that one. Exactly!
That's pretty good.
The password here on NBC is not killer.
That's so fun. I can tell you that much.
It's serial. I got it.
But that was good.
That's funny. Now we're back to you, Jimmy.
The first clue was cereal.
Olympics.
Wheaties? Yes!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Come on. Great job.
Okay!
Cereal killer is the best.
I feel like that works.
Here, this is for you, Michael. Okay.
This is for you, Tara. Thank you.
You guys want to play, or do you want to pass?
The password is...
We'll play. You'll play.
They're gonna play. Tara, let's do this.
Let's do this.
Gloves.
Chilly?
That is not the password.
Going over to you, Michael.
The first clue was [High-pitched] gloves.
Hands.
Mittens.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Dream team. Yes. I got an Olympian.
There is some type of synergy here.
There is synergy here.
Mittens, yes.
I don't know how you feeling, but it's getting close.
Jimmy, it's on you.
Do you want to play, or do you want to pass?
The password is...
Oh.
Okay.
I'll play.
He's going to play.
This could tie it up right here.
Cheetah?
[ Audience ooh'ing ]
Chee-tah?
Print? Cheetah print?
Alright, that's not the password.
We're going over here to you, Michael.
The first clue was cheetah.
I think it was chee-tah.
For five points.
[ Laughter ]
Feline.
Cougar?
Alright, that's not the password.
Okay, I think I got it.
We got this. We so got this.
Okay, I'm going back over here to you, Jimmy.
The first clue was cheetah.
The second was feline.
Uh-oh.
[ Audience clapping rhythmically ]
Spots.
Leopard. There you go.
[ Both speaking indistinctly ]
That was good. We got that.
We're still winning.
13-11. You guys are still trailing, so,
Tara, it's on you if you want to play or if you want to pass.
The password is...
Pass. She's going to pass it.
Good strategy. Good strategy. I believe in my partner.
It's to you, Michael.
I can pass it back?
[ Laughter ]
It's fine, it's fine, it's fine.
We'll play it, we'll play it. It's fine.
We got it, we got it, we got it.
Silver?
Medal?
That's not the password. We're going back over here
to you, Tara. The first clue was silver.
If you get this, you win the first round.
Tan.
Bronze.
Yes! Yes!
Wow. And just like that,
Jimmy and Sarah came
and swept it right from under Michael and Lindsey's feet.
But that's okay, because that's just the end of the first round.
Tara has a 1-0 lead,
but when we return, we'll switch up the teams in Round 2.
Keep it right here for more "Password"
That was exciting. Ooh. Whew!
This second round is going to be so intense.
Okay. Good luck. Crush it.
Got it, got it.
Thanks, Jimmy. Don't play too well over there, okay?
Hey, of course.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Welcome back to our "Password" celebration
of the Paris Olympics.
During the break, Jimmy and Lindsey switched partners.
Tara won the first round,
but remember, you have to win two rounds
in our best-out-of-three showdown for a shot at $25,000.
Michael, you got to win it here
to tie it up and force that tiebreaker.
It's go time. Alright!
It's Round 2, and the passwords
are going to get a little bit tougher.
But to help you out, we'll give you a category
that relates to all the passwords in this round.
Let's see tonight's category which is...
Let's play.
Now, you guys are in the lead,
So, Jimmy, it's on you
if you want to play or if you want to pass.
The password is...
Passwords that are high up.
I'm going to play.
Oh, he's gonna play!
Goodyear.
Blimp. Come on, man.
Let's go. That's what we do! That's what we do!
I told you, it's go time! Let's go!
That was pretty insane.
That's the way we play!
See what's up? See what's up?
Let's go. Let's go!
Already in the lead on the second round,
this is looking pretty good for you, Michael.
Alright, Tara, it's on you.
Do you want to play, or do you want to pass?
The password is...
Okay.
Passwords that are high up.
We got this. We're going to play.
Alright.
Broncos.
I don't know if it's two words. Mile-high?
Good guess. Good guess.
It's not the password.
Alright, we're back over here to you, Michael.
The first clue was Broncos.
It's passwords that are high up.
Nuggets.
Denver.
Let's go! You see what I'm saying?
I wish I could just say where I live.
[ Speaking indistinctly ]
Wow. Come on, now.
Did somebody work for the Denver Nuggets?
I do. You work for the Denver Nuggets.
Oh, my gosh.
I just thought Broncos was more obvious. I don't know.
It was obvious. Yeah. I'm sorry!
But you know what? The game ain't over.
You got time to catch up. We're catching up.
You know what I'm saying? We're catching up.
It's on you, Lindsey.
Do you want to play, or do you want to pass?
The password is...
Okay.
I'm gonna play. Gonna play, I know it,
I know it, I know. She's gonna play.
Passwords that are high up.
* Carey *
Can't sing that high. * Carey *
Tune? Carry a tune?
Ah, that is not the password. We're going over here to you.
And if you get this, then you have forced a tiebreaker,
and you guys are gonna go head to head for that bonus round.
Oh, shoot, I think I just thought of it.
So it's on you, Jimmy.
The first clue was Carey.
It's passwords that are high up.
Alright. Ready?
* Christmas *
[ Cheers and applause ]
Mariah. Oh, yeah!
Let's go! Let's go! That's what we do!
You know what's up! You know what's up, buddy!
Hey! Come on, now.
You know what? That note was insane.
Yeah. I really loved that.
That was really good. That was really good.
Our contestants are tied at one round apiece,
which means we go to a tie breaker.
It's Tara versus Michael in a head to head showdown
for a chance to play for $25,000.
Here is how it works.
In this envelope, I have one final password.
As I give clues, either one of you can ring in at any time.
If you're right, you'll move on to the bonus round.
On your feet, please. Let's get it.
[ Cheers and applause ]
For a shot at $25,000,
your first clue is...
...football!
Football!
Football! Okay, I'll go to the second clue.
Hit!
[ Ding! ]
Tara, you rang in first.
If you're right, you're moving on to the bonus round.
For a shot at $25,000,
what is the password?
Tackle.
[ Sighs ]
That's the password!
Oh, my gosh! Yes!
That was good.
You see us come back, though?
You see us come back? Respect. We did, we did.
And you shot the moon.
That was a hard one.
Congratulations to Tara. She's won the game.
And we got to say bye to Michael. He was awesome.
But don't go anywhere, because
Tara is going to play for $25,000 when we come back
for more "Password" as we celebrate the Paris Olympics.
**
Welcome back to "Password."
Tonight we are celebrating the Paris Olympics.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Tara has won our game and now has a chance to play
with both Jimmy and my girl Lindsey to win $25,000.
Now, when you win this $25,000,
what are you planning to do with it?
Well, my dad's side of the family is from Armenia,
and my mom's side of the family is from Norway,
and I've never been to either country.
So maybe we take the whole family to the motherland.
Oh, my goodness. Yes. Thank you.
I love a family trip.
Well, here's how the bonus round works.
Okay, we're going to give you 10 passwords,
beginning with the letter A and continuing through
each letter to the letter J. You will be the clue giver
and start by choosing one celebrity to be the guesser.
You'll have 30 seconds to get
as many of the passwords as you can.
Then we'll take a break, and the other celebrity will
take over to guess the remaining passwords in 30 seconds.
For every correct answer, you'll get $1,000.
But if you sweep the board and get all 10,
we'll send you home with $25,000.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Which celebrity do you want to play with first?
Well, since I was just partnered with Lindsey,
I think we should keep the momentum going.
Oh, alright. I know that's right. Alright.
Let's go, ladies.
Let's do this. Alright.
I agree with that.
You got this, Lindsey.
Tara, you got this.
Let's go, Lindsey! We got this.
Let's do this. Keke: Alright.
30 seconds on the clock.
Only Tara can pass.

Very, very good. Good job! That was awesome.
Lindsey has gotten you off to an amazing start.
You've got six correct for a total of $6,000.
But we're going to try to get you that $25,000.
So, Jimmy, you're up next. Great job, Lindsey.
Well done, Lindsey Vonn!
Yes!
Well done!
Alright. You have four passwords remaining.
You could be 30 seconds away from a $25,000 payday.

That's not bad. But we want you to win big.
So let's try and get her some more with the redemption round.
How about that, right?
Put some more money in your pocket.
Okay. We have one final password
that could double your winnings,
sending you home with $18,000 instead.
Oh, my goodness. You're gonna get both Jimmy and Lindsey.
Yes.
$18,000. Let's do it.
Alright, here comes the final password of the game.
[ Ding! ]
Okay.
You feel good to give that clue?
Yes. Alright, go ahead.
David.
Alright.
Headphones.
Turn yourself around.
And go ahead and deliberate.
What was that? I don't know what that means.
David -- Statue? I don't want to say, but --
Statue? Beckham?
Beckham. I don't know. David?
He does look good. I don't know.
David? David?
Goliath? That's what I thought.
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Once you get it, let me know.
[ Buzzer ] [ Laughs ]
Beckham. Okay.
Come on, honey. Thank you.
Oh, I don't know, you guys.
Okay, Tara, to double your money,
what was the password?
Statue.
Oh, you were right. No?
You said statue.
You said it? I said it.
But you know what?
My girl is still going home with $9,000!
Okay? 9,000 big ones.
You played a great game. Thank you.
I thought it was gonna be sports themed.
I know, me, too.
That is our show.
Thank you to Jimmy and Lindsey for being here.
Do not forget, you can catch the Paris Olympics
this summer on NBC and streaming on Peacock.
Go Team USA!
We'll see you next time on "Password."
Tara, that was me!
That was me. Thought it was sports themed.
I could not even believe that you thought statue from David.
It was hard.
Jimmy: David Beckham?
I'm like, I don't know!
