(TENSE MUSIC BUILDS)
I'm Rob Lowe, and this is The Floor.
Eighty-one players will take their place
on this nine by nine field of battle,
each with their own trivia expertise.
My category is wild animals.
-Cereals. -Hobbies.
(ROB) The game is simple. When a player is selected,
they must challenge a neighbor...
-Bring it on! -..in their field of expertise.
They will go head to head in a time trivia duel.
-An otoscope. -Centipede.
The Pointer Sisters.
Pass. Oh!
(ROB CHEERING)
(ROB) The winner takes control of their opponent's Floor...
Let's light it up!
-(CHEERING ECSTATICALLY) -..and the loser goes home.
(ROB) You can run but you can't hide.
We've assembled a cast of cunning contestants...
(WOMAN) You better hope I don't come for you.
What if we did Famous Sidekicks? -(WOMAN) What if we did?
..ready to rival their fellow experts.
-(ROB) That an official choice? -(MAN) Yeah, I think it is.
Famous Sidekicks!
-To stand their ground... -(WOMAN SHRIEKS)
-..only those with knowledge... -(MAN) Next!
..and nerves of steel will survive.
-Wow. That was intense. -You act like I can't handle it.
Oh my God!
But in the end, only one can conquer it all...
Do not look me in the eyes!
..and win the $250,000.
If they conquer the Floor.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
I am Rob Lowe, and I am your host.
Let's meet the players as they take their places.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
I am a walking encyclopedia of useless knowledge
and I think I can cash it out on The Floor.
(ROB) Yeah!
Let's do this! Woo!
Being a pro wrestler, you have to be competitive
but for $250,000 we just upped the ante!
(ROB) Look at you guys!
Yeah! You look fabulous!
I came to The Floor to win. Not to make friends,
not to give some of these people fashion advice, which they need.
I came for the money.
(ROB) Alright, alright. Now, listen.
Each of you came here with your own category of expertise.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(ROB) Oh! Best Picture Winners. I'm not on that list.
(LAUGHTER)
(ROB) Eighties TV?
-Am on the list! -(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
So many great categories but I want you all
to take a look around you.
At some point, you are going to have to take on your neighbor.
But keep in mind, the more Floor you conquer,
the more of a target you become.
Because at the end of the night...
-..seven of you will be gone. -(GROANS OF DISAPPOINTMENT)
There are no second chances here on The Floor.
And at the end of our season, conquer the Floor
and you will win 250,000.
-(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE) -(ROB) Yeah! Right?
I think my friend's suit might have cost $250,000.
-(LAUGHTER) -You're right. You're right.
So who will be first to duel?
That is a little above my pay grade.
Let's activate the Randomizer.
(TENSE MUSIC)
-(ROB) Oh! -(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
(ROB) Alright, Sid, you came in here
as an expert on veggies.
But when the randomizer selects you, you need to challenge
one of your neighbors in their area of expertise.
Let's see what they are.
-(TENSE MUSIC) -(ROB) Cereal, Birds,
Tools, and Athletes.
(SID) These are some semi difficult choices to make.
Just ask yourself, how much cereal do you consume?
-(LAUGHTER) -If you don't consume much...
-(DARIN) Not as much as me! -..don't choose that category.
-(SID) I eat a lot of cereal. -There ya go! Watch much sports?
I watch a lot of sports, and play some sports.
(ROB) You have two very strong choices already.
(SID) But... I have a feeling...
that you do not know a lot about tools.
(ALL) Whoa!
(ROB) Man! She is judging a book by its cover!
I think I'm going to have to challenge you with the Tools.
(SID) This is goin' down!
You two are our first to duel. Come on up!
(WHOOPING AND CHEERING)
(TENSE MUSIC)
-Zai, welcome. -(ZAI) Hi!
-Sid... -Yes.
..what makes you think you have any expertise in Tools?
Because your category, you came here with, is Vegetables.
-(ALL LAUGHING) -It is.
So, the fact that right now I am rehabbing homes...
-..so I buy small properties... -(ROB, ZIA) Oh, boy.
..I have all of the tools, and I am doing these homes solo.
Okay, how are you feeling about this?
Fortunately for you,
my boyfriend is a service engineer,
so I hear all about the tools that he uses
while working on furnaces daily.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
(ROB) We're a ways away from 250,000
but every journey begins with a single step,
and the winner will continue,
and the loser, I'm sorry... bye-bye!
(ALL MOAN IN DISAPPOINTMENT)
So here's how it works -
you each have 45 seconds to identify a series of images.
There's no penalty for an incorrect answer
but your clock will keep ticking until you get it right.
If you're stuck, you can say 'pass'.
You'll get a new image
but that will cost you a critical 3 seconds.
A correct answer stops the clock,
and causes your opponent's clock to begin.
The first person whose clock runs out
leaves The Floor forever, and the winner gains the territory.
Alright, since you are the challenger, you get to go first.
The category is Tools. I will show you a photo
and you need to identify it.
The first duel begins now.
-(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE) -(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Hammer.
Drill.
Axe.
Chainsaw.
Screws.
(SID) Pins... (STUTTERS)
Nails!
Flathead screwdriver.
Wrench.
Tweezers. Pliers.
Wrench.
Measuring...
-Pass. -(BUZZER SOUNDS)
(TENSE MUSIC BUILDS)
Blower.
Air blower.
Pump.
-Pass. -(BUZZER SOUNDS)
Turnkey.
Measuring...
(AUDIENCE SIGHS AND APPLAUDS)
-Congratulations! -Thank you!
(ROB) You did it. Turns out you did know your tools.
-I did! (LAUGHS) -And you gained your first
territory on the Floor. Let's light it up!
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
I am so sorry but the Floor does not forgive.
-It doesn't. -Thank you for playing.
-Of course. -Appreciate it. Good job.
It was great playing against you!
Tools got you here and kept you alive but that is now gone
and you have inherited her category of Vegetables.
(ROB) How do you feel about that?
Look, to me, Tools was hard.
I don't know if I can do Veggies.
Sneaky-hard, I thought, but then there are those tools
that are very difficult. Like... nails!
-Yes! -(LAUGHTER)
You never know what's gonna stump anybody under pressure,
and that is part of The Floor.
So now you have a big decision to make.
Do you keep playing or do you go back to the Floor?
You have more categories to choose from.
(ROB) Cereals, Nepo Babies, Birds,
Cars, Athletes,
and Fashion Icons.
It's a lot to work with but before you decide,
you should know that every night,
whoever has the most territory on the Floor
will go home with $20,000 no matter what.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
Your next move could be your best move or your last.
How do you feel about the categories?
I don't eat a lot of cereal but I watch a lot of commercials
and I can definitely tell you, I know my cereal.
(ZAI cont.) And I think Cars...
I know my car logos. I know my car brands.
(ROB) There's something else to think about -
if you choose to go back to the Floor
and someone challenges you,
the category of your expertise now is Veggies.
You know what? I think I'm going to go for it.
-(ROB) Yeah, I like that! -(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
Right, you know the categories. Which one are we going with?
Cars.
(ROB) Cars, you've been challenged! Step on up.
(GREG) I think I have an edge
because I have a background in general trivia.
I'm very competitive. I don't say much
but once I get into competition, it takes over.
There's no way I'm going to be beaten in Cars.
-Greg, how you doing? -Doin' alright.
-You're the master of cars. -We'll find out.
Are you "Jay Leno, Master of Cars"?
I am "Broke Jay Leno, Master of Cars."
-(LAUGHTER) -Aren't we all?!
(ROB) What makes you an expert at cars?
-I'm an insurance adjuster. -(LAUGHTER)
(ROB) That would do it! You know how it works.
You have 45 seconds on the clock.
-The challenger goes first. -(GREG) Okay.
The category is Cars. I'm gonna show you car logos...
-(GREG) Okay. -..and you name the brand.
-(ROB) Ready? -Got it.
Let's begin the duel!
-(DRAMATIC MUSIC) -(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
I really think she's gonna take him.
-Good luck, but not too good! -(CHUCKLING) Same to you!

-(GASPS FROM AUDIENCE) -(ROB) Wow!
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
Greg the car man has done it.
Congratulations. You have also won
your first piece of the Floor. Let's light it up!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
Thanks for playing. You were awesome.
-It's great to meet you. -Great meeting you too.
My favorite part of your competition
was hitting me with the.. (POSHLY) ..Jaguar!
(POSHLY) Jaguar! I'm making my list for the 250,000.
(ROB) That was very, very... That was fantastic.
So, now you've used up your area of expertise.
-I have. -And you have inherited...
-(BOTH IN UNISON) Vegetables! -(LAUGHTER)
(ROB) You have a big decision to make -
you can keep on playing or you can go back to the Floor.
You do have more categories. They are...
the ever-popular and never-picked...
-..Cereals. -(LAUGHTER)
Nepo Babies, Sci-Fi, Birds,
One Hit Wonders, Athletes,
Fashion Icons, and Toys.
There is a lot to choose from to expand your turf.
With tonight's $20,000 prize
for whoever has the most territory
at the end of the night on the line,
how are you going to play?
Let's find out right after this on The Floor.
(APPLAUSE)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(ROB) Welcome back. Greg has a decision to make -
to go back to the Floor to defend the category Veggies
or conquer more turf by challenging his neighbors
whose expert categories include Cereals, Sci-Fi and Toys.
-What's it gonna be, Greg? -You know, I'm a big kid,
and, you know, when I started having sons,
I was really happy 'cos then I could buy toys for them...
-Yes! Yes. -..but play with them myself.
-I'm right there with you, man! -(GREG) So, um...
..a couple of the categories look pretty good
but, you know, I've seen some challenges
go terribly wrong so far today so I think I'm going to wait
for somebody to knock on my Vegetable door.
Alright, you've chosen to go back to the Floor. Good luck.
(GREG) Thank you. See you soon.
(ROB) We will find out who is next to play -
let's activate the Randomizer!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(ROB) Yeah... Who will it be?
(DRAMATIC MUSIC CLIMAXES)
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
-(TORY) I knew it! -Hey! Welcome.
-(TORY) Thank you! -Tell me your name.
-Tory. -Tory, what is your category?
-Bugs. -(ROB) Bugs?!
-Uh-hum. -That seems really complicated.
-(LAUGHTER) -It actually... is!
(LAUGHTER)
Sadly, you're not going to get to use that category
because you have to pick who you would like to challenge.
Take a look around you.
The various categories to choose from are...
A-Listers, 80s TV, Political Candidates.
What about, like, any people..?
I'm missing somebody-- I'm missing somebody right here!
-(LAUGHTER) -I know!
Maybe I can take, like, Barbecue?
(ROB) You're livin' on the edge! That's what you get!
Personally, I love those categories.
I mean, I wasn't even alive in the 80s.
(GROANS AND LAUGHTER)
She wasn't alive in the 80s.
It's going to look really bad
if I don't know political candidates
but it's not going to look that bad if I don't know A-Listers
(ROB) Y'know what? That's right. That's very well thought-out.
Alright, so you're gonna go with..?
- A-Listers. -Yes! Players, come on up!
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
-Alright. Natalia, welcome. -Thank you.
What's the fascination with A-Listers?
-(LAUGHTER) -Well, I like television...
..I like movies. I like shows.
So... I'm into that kind of stuff.
(ROB) Well, I like that. Now, Tory, what would you do
with $250,000?
I was going to make, like, an ant farm in my backyard.
-(LAUGHTER) -(ROB) That's so good!
-Okay. -But, like, not just little...
-..like a big one? -Like a really big one.
The problem is, you can make it big but the ants are still...
-..the same size. -But you can get more of them.
-(LAUGHTER) -(ROB) You have 45 seconds
to identify the images I'm about to show you.
The correct answer stops your clock,
and starts your opponent's. Remember,
if you truly don't know, pass. You'll get a new image
but that will cost you three seconds.
The first player whose clock runs out leaves the Floor
forever.
You are the challenger so you will go first.
The category is A-Listers. I'm going to show you the images
of celebrities past and present.
You will identify them. You ready to go?
-Yeah. -Let's begin the duel!
Let's do it!
-(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE) -(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Oh boy!
Emma Stone.
Ben Affleck.
-Pass. -(BUZZER SOUNDS)
Uh... somebody's brother. Pass.
-(BUZZER SOUNDS) -(LAUGHTER)
Oh, I forgot... The Rock.
Mila Kunis.
Is that Margot Robbie?
A lot of people look like Margot Robbie.
Morgan Freeman.
Anna... Frederick.
Uh... Anna...
Anne... pass.
(BUZZER SOUNDS)
Oh! Uh...
Tom...
It's Tom!
-Pass! -(BUZZER SOUNDS)
Oh, no!
(APPLAUSE)
-(ROB CHUCKLING) -Oh, God!
(ROB) Natalia, you did it.
-Congrats. On to Bugs now! -(LAUGHTER)
We have the good news and the bad news.
The good news is you won. The bad news is...
-..your category is now Bugs. -Which is my phobia!
By the way, my favorite word of the evening
is Lin-Manuel Miranda as "somebody's brother."
-(LAUGHTER) -(ROB) Hamilton!
Congratulations. You have won your first piece of the Floor.
-Let's light it up! -(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
-Thanks, Tory. You were awesome. -Thank you.
-(ROB) Thanks for playing. -(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
-How are you feeling? -Happy.
-Okay, you have a big decision. -Yes.
If you're going to play, or do you go back to the Floor.
We'll find out when we come back.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Welcome back! Natalia has a big decision to make -
keep playing? Or do you want to go back to the Floor.
You have more categories now that you can challenge.
-Okay. -(ROB) Bands, Kids' Books...
..US States, 80s TV, and Political Candidates.
We have four more duels to go tonight.
Remember, if you go back to the Floor,
and someone challenges you...
-On Bugs! -..you'll be buggin'!
And then there's that $20,000 that's in play
for whoever has the most Floor at the end of the night.
Right now, that is Greg.
Okay, well, uh... baby steps with me.
That's right, yes!
So I'm gonna keep my little piece for now.
-It could be risky! -I'll take my chances.
-Alright, see you down the road. -Thank you.
So I just found out that I'm going to have to do Bugs.
I'm completely terrified of bugs, and I hate that.
(ROB) Well, there's some territory that's been conquered,
and at the end of the night, whoever has the most...
-..20 grand... -(WHOOPING AND APPLAUSE)
..at the end of our run, 250,000.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
Be strategizing. Be looking around the room for your moment
'cos it could happen at any time, maybe even now.
Let's activate the Randomizer.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(ROB) Someone new is coming up!
Who's it gonna be?
-(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE) -(ROB) There we go!
The Randomizer has spoken.
-I'm ready. Let's go! -What's your name?
My name is Kat, and my category is Dogs.
(LAUGHTER)
-I like it. Counterintuitive. -Yes.
Let's look at the categories available to you.
We have Rock Stars, Popular Books,
Songs About Places, and Sci-Fi.
A wide, diverse group you've got there. What do you think?
I don't read a lot, so I'm not going to go there.
-(ROB) Uh-hum. -I don't like Sci-Fi.
-Not going to go there. -Uh-hum. Smart.
And I'm left with Music.
(ROB) Now you surely listen to music?
-Oh, I love music. -Well, there you go.
My man Josh over here is very intimidating though!
-(LAUGHTER) -(ROB) He's not...
..really giving me rock star vibes, I'm just saying.
Josh, do you feel ready if she chose you?
-I do. -And I'm not!
(LAUGHTER)
And Jasper is very quiet,
so I have not been able to get a lot out of him
but I'm going to get something out of him tonight.
-(ROB) Uh-oh! -(CHEERING)
Songs About Places, it is!
I'm here to win some money,
and I would love to buy my first real estate property,
and help my parents pay off their mortgage.
Kat's made an interesting gamble here
because I know a lot about Songs About Places!
All boils down to knowing more than the person in front of you.
-(ROB) Jasper, right? -(JASPER) That's me.
-Where are you from? -Kansas City.
Midwestern boy! Us Midwestern boys gotta stick together!
We've gotta represent. Songs About Places.
This could be a tough one.
This is not the mindset you need going into this.
Oh, I'm going to go for it.
Alright. Jasper, are you good at songs?
I play some music.
How many of those songs you play have titles with cities in them?
-A fair few. -(LAUGHTER)
Okay, for this category, we're taking it up a notch.
This is a text-based category.
Kat, you're up because you are the challenger.
The category is Songs About Places.
You're going to see a song title that's missing a word -
you fill in the blank. Let the duel begin!
-(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE) -(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
I hope she wins.
Havana?
Africa.
Georgia?
U.S.A.
Ibiza?
N.Y?
-Pass. -(BUZZER SOUNDS)
(WHISPERS) Boo!
California.
-Pass. -(BUZZER SOUNDS)
Nui-nui...
-Pass. -(BUZZER SOUNDS)
(AUDIENCE SIGHS IN DISAPPOINTMENT)
(ROB) Jasper!
You lived up to your billing!
And you've just won your first spot on the Floor.
Let's light it up!
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
(SIGHS SADLY) It's hard under that pressure.
I'm trying to sing the song in my head,
and I'm like, "What's the word that goes there?"
And thinking of the tune and...
Well, you did great. Great having you.
-Thank you so much. -(ROB) Thank you so much.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
So, because you're the winner, you inherit her category
that you will have to defend - Dogs.
(JASPER) I don't know anything about dogs.
-Just the way we like it! -(LAUGHTER)
Now you've given a strategy advantage.
They know if they challenge you, you don't know a thing...
-..about dogs! -That's true.
Alright, you have a decision. You can stay and play,
or you can go back to The Floor.
(TENSE MUSIC)
We'll find out when we come back.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
(ROB) Jasper, you have a decision now.
You can stay and play, or you can go back to the Floor.
We have three more duels. $20,000 in play
for whoever has the most Floor at the end of the night.
Here are some of the categories you have as an option.
Rock Stars, Slogans, Popular Books,
Sci-Fi, and Brunch.
You realize that at the end of tonight,
whoever has the most Floor will win $20,000.
That's yours to keep no matter what happens.
Is that factoring into this decision for you?
Definitely, yeah. I decided to try and be aggressive,
so I'm going to try and stay on, at least for a little while.
-He's gonna stay! -(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
(ROB) Great. I like that. Right, so the only other question
you need to answer is what category are you gonna play?
Popular Books.
(ROB) Popular Books! The winner of this duel
will be tied for the most turf on the Floor
and tonight's $20,000 prize.
Come on up, Mr. Popular Books!
I consistently beat my friends in at-home trivia,
so I'm confident that I can beat my opponents here on this show.
(JASPER) I like the look of Christian's category because
I am a big reader so I have pretty good confidence here.
(ROB) Alright, Christian. Twenty-one years old,
you might be our youngest competitor, I think.
-Anybody younger than 21? No? -(LAUGHTER)
And what would you do with $250,000?
$250,000 is a lot of money, and I know that my 2004 Chevy S10
-..needs an oil change... -(ROB) Mmm!
..and so I don't know what to do with the rest of like
the round a quarter million. That's about it for starters!
(ROB) I like that. Jasper, how do you feel about Books?
-I-I have read books. -(LAUGHTER)
-At le-- At least more than one. -(ROB) Yes. Congratulations.
-(JASPER) Thank you. -You guys know how this goes.
You each have 45 seconds. You are the challenger.
You will go first. The category is Popular Books.
I'm going to show you an image of a book cover,
and you will need to answer what word is missing
from the title. Let the duel begin!
-(DRAMATIC MUSIC) -(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

(ALL SIGHING IN DISAPPOINTMENT)
Hey. A pleasure.
(ROB) Christian, this is the first time
someone who has challenged has lost.
Jasper, you did a great job. Let's light up your Floor.
And I'm sorry. Our youngest player,
we're saying goodbye to you. One thing to know your trivia
but it's hard under that pressure.
Thank you, sir. You have a good one.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
So you are now tied for the most amount of Floor with Greg.
-(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE) -(ROB) Three pieces each...
..closing in on that $20,000 for this evening.
And of course, one more win,
and you are in the driver's seat for the $20,000.
We have two more duels. Are you gonna stay and play?
Or are you gonna go back to the Floor?
(TENSE MUSIC)
Let's look at the categories. What do we have here?
Sports Equipment, Rock Stars, Slogans, Famous Hair,
Nepo Babies, Sci-Fi, and Brunch.
I don't know. I'm leaning towards
staying up here as long as I can.
(ROB) The best offense is good defense. I like that.
Good choice. He's gonna keep playing!
-What category's it gonna be? -Slogans could be interesting.
(JASPER) There's a lot of those around for all kinds of things.
I'm going with Slogans.
He's going with Slogans! (CALLS OUT) Slogans! Come on up!
(FELLOW CONTESTANT) Come on, Zane!
I'm an expert at slogans because I know everything.
I've taken in every bit of media. I've been everywhere.
I just know it all! I'm here for one reason.
I didn't come for friends.
I came here to intimidate and leave a little richer.
-(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE) -(TENSE MUSIC BUILDS)
(JASPER) Zane. He's an intimidating guy
and he's giving me the old stare-down
but I'll give him one back.
-(DRAMATIC MUSIC) -(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
Welcome back to The Floor.
Jasper and Zane, they're about to duel.
Yeah, Zane, I like the stare-down!
-(LAUGHTER FROM AUDIENCE) -(ROB) Yeah!
-(ALL LAUGHING) -(ROB) So, you're a stuntman,
and, you know, I'm looking for a new stuntman
on 9-1-1: Lone Star. I play a fireman on Fox!
(LOUD CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
(ROB) But somehow I don't think...
-I don't think this will work. -I'll shave.
-You'd shave your beard for me?! -Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Say no more. You and I are homies for life!
Now, how do you feel about going up against Jasper
who is the first person to beat someone in their own category?
I'll be the first person to beat that guy.
-(ROB) Yesss! -(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
(ROB) Are you thrown
by this intimidating specimen of a human being?
He's the stuntman. He could throw me.
-That's what I'm thinkin'. -(LAUGHTER)
Greg has three pieces of the Floor.
Whoever wins this duel will have four
and will have the most turf on the Floor.
Greg, who you betting on, by the way?
I don't know. It's gonna be a tough one. I'll wait and see.
You're hoping for a draw, which we don't have!
-(LAUGHTER) -Jasper, you're the challenger
again so you will be on the clock first.
Category is Slogans. You're going to see text on the screen
and you need to tell us the company that has used,
or is currently using, that tag. Let's begin the duel!
-(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE) -(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

You've taken the lead for the $20,000.
Let's light it up!
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Zane, I still want you to be my stuntman.
I'll be there. I'm ready to go.
-Thanks, brother. Appreciate ya. -Good job, dude.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
So do you want to keep playing?
Or do you want to go back to the Floor?
(ROB) Let's check out your categories. They are...
Hip-hop, Sports Equipment, Rock Stars, Famous Hair,
Nepo Babies, Sci-Fi, Brunch.
The guy that's got Sci-Fi is rubbing his hands.
(CHUCKLING) He looks ready. I'm afraid of him!
(ROB) Yeah, those guys... Yeah, which one of you
wants to take him on the most?
-(AUDIENCE MEMBER WHOOPS) -(APPLAUSE)
(ROB) Aw, I figured as much!
-(ROB) I might have known! -(FELLOW CONTESTANT) Go, Greg!
(ROB) So, you're in the lead for 20 grand
but if you go back to the Floor and somebody challenges you,
you got to rep Dogs, and you could lose it all.
(ROB) Jasper, there is only one more duel to play tonight.
This is a huge decision.
(JASPER) I think I'd like to go back to The Floor.
-You take a breather? -Yeah.
He's going back to the Floor for a breather! See you again.
I think it's time to come off.
I've had a nice streak but don't want to get too greedy.
I've definitely got a target on my back now. I better watch out!
I like to sabotage
and kind of get into the minds of my competitors.
I knew he wanted to gun for me and Sci-Fi
but I played a little head game with him, made eye contact,
rubbed my hands a little bit and scared him off
so I live to fight another day.
Alright, everybody, you know that that means
Jasper is in the lead for the $20,000
unless one of you can take him down tonight.
And this is the last duel of the night.
Let's activate the Randomizer.
(TENSE MUSIC)
(TENSE MUSIC CLIMAXES, ENDS)
(CONTESTANTS GASP)
(ROB) What?! Whoa-ho-ho!
My rock star Josh!
Mr. Rock Star, How are you feeling?
I'm... I'm amped!
-You're amped? -(JOSH) Ready to rock!
-Wanna hear your categories? -(JOSH) Sir!
(ROB) Alright, they are Barbecue, Sports Equipment,
and Dogs.
You know, when I play trivia back home,
my motto is "Go big or go home"
so it's... uh, sorry, Jasper, but I got to go for Dogs.
Yes! Yes! Yes!
He's going for the $20,000 kill!
-Come on up! -(EXCITED CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
I have to ask it - do either of you know anything about dogs?
-(AUDIENCE LAUGHING) -I-I have a dog.
I mean, that's the thing about The Floor.
This category has been inherited and fought over and passed down
and now you guys are battling in a category
that is not of your own making.
So tell me who is watching at home. Who's on Team Josh?
My beautiful wife Jenn, my son Bryce who's everything to us,
my family, my friends and my whole world. Everybody.
Everybody will be excited to cheer me on. I'm excited.
(ROB) I like that. That's amazing.
Jasper, you took the gamble, and now here you are!
-(AUDIENCE LAUGHING) -Whoever wins this duel
wins the $20,000 for tonight.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
As you know, you each have 45 seconds.
You are our challenger, so you will go first.
The category is Dogs. I'm going to show you an image of
-a lot of good, good doggies... -(LAUGHTER)
-..and you must name the breed. -Okay.
(ROB) Alright. Whichever one of you wins this duel
wins the $20,000. Good luck.
-(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE) -(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
-(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)
(ROB) As you know, you each have 45 seconds.
You are our challenger, so you will go first.
The category is Dogs. You ready?

-(CHANTING) Do it! Do it! -People are gunning for you.

(ROB) Whoa!
