ANNOUNCER: Let's playLingo!
Up first, it's returning winners,
friends Brittany and April.
They'll face mother and daughter Rhonda and Monet.
But now, his suits are smart,
but his wordplay is smarter.
It's your host, RuPaul!
Hi. Yeah!
[cheering and applause]
[laughs]
Hello.
Hello and welcome to Lingo,
the word game that's not playing around 'cause, baby,
there is some serious money to be made.
[cheering]
It's true.
Tonight, four teams will take on the Lingo grid.
And our first two teams are ready to go.
The two teams that bank the most money in each round
will face off in the Lingo Showdown
at the end of the night, where one duo
will walk away with both teams' winnings plus an added
$50,000 jackpot.
[cheering and applause]
And they'll have the chance to move on to the next show
and defend their title. Let's Lingo.
Now, here's how it works.
This is a Lingo grid.
You'll be shown the first letter of a word.
All you have to do is guess that word.
A correct turns green.
A correct letter in the wrong place turns yellow.
Each time you find a Lingo, we'll add money to your bank.
-Got it? Good. -Mm-hmm.
Now, if you get it on the first try,
that's a Golden Guess,
and you instantly bank $5,000.
[cheering and applause]
A second guess is $2,500,
a third $2,000, all the way down to $1,000.
Now, if you run out of time or
cannot solve your Lingo, the other team
-can steal. -AUDIENCE: Ooh!

[laughter]
Okay, Kyle, you're up next.
Your six-letter Lingo begins with N.
Time starts now.
Naming. N-A-M-I-N-G.
New green, stays with you.
-Eesh. -Ooh.
-[buzzer sounds] -Out of time. Over to Dan.
Try "nosily."
N-O-S-I-L-Y.
No new green. Back to Kyle.
Nailed. N-A-I-L-E-D.
-[bell chimes] -There you go.
-[cheering and applause] -Nailed it.
$3,000 in your bank.
And that takes you to the lead. All right.
Let's rejoin your teammates for one final Battle.
[cheering and applause]
All right, now this is your last chance
to make it to the Lingo Showdown.
And it all comes down to this,
a Super Lingo worth up to $15,000.
[cheering and applause]
All right, here we go. Here's your clue.
-Time starts now. F. -[buzzer sounds]
Okay. Joey and Dan.
-What's your answer? -[exhales]
-Thought it was something else. -[buzzer sounds]
Oh, out of time.
That means Savannah and Kyle get the remaining time.
Time starts now.
-O -No.
-N. -Yeah.
-[buzzer sounds] -All right.
Fermentation.
For $9,000, and a place
in the Lingo Showdown, is "fermentation" up there?
-[bell chimes] -Yes.
-[cheering and applause] -[RuPaul laughs]
Wow. Fermentation.
Now that means we have to say goodbye to Joey and Dan.
You've been great. Thank you so much.
-Thank you. -[cheering and applause]
RUPAUL: But Savannah and Kyle,
you've banked $26,500.
You're moving into the Lingo Showdown...
-[cheering and applause] -...where you'll be facing off
against our champions Brittany and April
for a grand total of...
...$93,500.
[whoops]
The last team standing
have the chance to move on to the next show
and defend their title.
Oh, it's Lingoingdown, baby.
Come on back.
[cheering and applause]
♪ ♪
Welcome back, it's time the Lingo Showdown.
[cheering and applause]
Four teams came to play, two remain,
only one can win the jackpot.
Playing tonight are Brittany and April and Savannah and Kyle.
Who will come out on top?
Well, let's bring them back.
[cheering and applause]
Okay, kids, this is where it gets serious.
You're playing to win
all the money you've both accumulated tonight.
Plus an added $50,000.
That's a grand total of $93,500.
[cheering and applause]
Wow.
Now, of course, only one team can take home the jackpot.
And don't forget, they'll move on
to the next show and defend their title.
Good luck to both teams.
Here's how it works.
You'll get two minutes to solve
as many five-letter Lingos
as possible.
Now, you can pass at any time,
and the team with the most correct Lingos wins.
Now, Savannah and Kyle,
you've banked the most money, so you get to decide
who goes first.
-We do. -Okay. It's game on.
Remember, there is $93,500 on the line.
Savannah and Kyle, are you ready?
-Yes. -Ready. -Okay. Can we get
two minutes on the clock, please?
