ANNOUNCER: Let's go,Lingo fans.
Give it up for your host,
-the mighty RuPaul. -[cheers, applause]
RUPAUL: Whew.
Hello and welcome to Lingo.
Now, they say a picture is worth a thousand words.
But on this show, a word can be worth
thousands of dollars, baby.
[RuPaul chuckles]
Word up to my word nerds out there.
Listen, if you really want to test your skills,
this is the place to be.
This is how the game works.
Four new teams will tackle the Lingo board.
The two teams that bank the most money in each round
will earn a coveted spot in the Lingo Showdown
at the end of the night, where one duo will walk away
with both teams' winnings,
plus an extra $50,000 jackpot.
This is a Lingo grid.
Now, our contestants will be shown
the first letter of a word.
All they have to do is guess that word.
Simple, right?
A correct letter turns green.
A correct letter in the wrong place turns yellow.
They have five attempts to solve each Lingo
but only ten seconds for each guess.
Each time they find a Lingo will add money to their bank.
Fabulous.
All right, let's meet our first two teams.
It's dating couple Romina and Chinwendu,
and friends Shatora and David.
[audience cheering]
Let's play Lingo.
♪ ♪
All right, first up, you'll be playing
three five-letter Lingos each.
Get it right on the first try,
that's a Golden Guess, and you instantly bank $5,000.
The second guess is $2,500,
third, $2,000, all the way down to $1,000.
Now remember,
you must say the word and start to spell it
before the timer runs out.
Now, if you run out of time or cannot solve your Lingo,
the other team can steal.
So you better watch out.
All right, Romina and Chinwendu, you're up first.

Now, here's where it gets really real.
Only one team can take home the jackpot.
The other will sadly leave with nothing.
[audience exclaims]
All right, so how would you spend the money?
-Andrés and Diego? -Um, I just want to give back
to some of the people
that have really made an impact in my life.
So my parents, especially.
I would give some to Andrés, but he's getting his own.
[laughing] All right, Shatora and David.
Shatora, how would you spend money?
Uh, so of course, there'd be friends and family,
but I love to travel.
Um, I have two continents left--
Australia and Antarctica.
And so I would love to hit both of those.
RUPAUL: Okay.
What about you, David?
B-E-A-C-H
H-O-U-S-E.
Beach house, baby.

Well, good luck to you all.

Here's how it works.
You get two minutes
to solve as many five- and six-letter Lingos as possible.
Solve a five-letter Lingo, you get five points.
Solve a trickier six-letter Lingo
and you get ten points.
Now, you can pass at any time
and the team with the most points wins.
Simple as that.
Now, Andrés and Diego, you banked the most money,
so you get to decide who goes first and who goes second.
I think we're gonna let them go first.
Good luck to both teams.
All right, Shatora and David.
Can we have two minutes on the clock, please?
