Episode 2.5 Last time, Maria Bruncar took away $25,000, while Dylan Mack took four times that. But enough about those two, it's time for another special Friday session of class. Once again, Laura, now on the Fox series "Back to You", is sitting in with the class. Here's an interesting thing
to ponder. "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?" has only been on for six
or seven months, and in that span of time, 47 countries have lined up to
import the classroom for their viewers. So before we play the game here
in the good old US of A, let's Go Global...
And of course, when "Are You Smarter Than a Canadian 5th Grader?" drops, we'll have it here. Meanwhile, let's play along with a 34-year-old realtor from Smiley Elementary, SALLY ROYER. She's a mother of three, with one of the way. So if anyone needs this
money, it's her. Let's start with Big Kyle.
Kyle is locked in. Polly, poker, and platypus are good for $1000. Sally goes with three, and we move on.
(C-Note: Science was Sally's worst subject!) Sally knows nothing here... she goes with TRUE. Jacob's answer is... True... or false. Kyle said... TRUE. He can't save you. Correct answer... FALSE. Sally flunks with nothing. Next transfer student is a 35-year-old loan officer from Ontario, Canada, MARK STITH. Mark used to play hockey at JL Mitchener School. First to play is Laura... Here we go.
Mark goes with FALSE... He's got $1000 American, and we continue.
Mark tries to picture the big map. Laura's locked in. Mark goes with Australia... Not right. We play on if Laura gets it right. The class said... "South America". Laura said... South America. SAVED! Mark also played minor-league pro hockey. We'll slap a few shots around with Alana next.
Alana is locked. Mark locks in Lake Erie.... and that's not right. Mark, you're going to kick yourself. It's Lake Ontario. So Mark flunks out with nothing. New student is a 49-year-old management consultant from Jersey City, NJ, BARRY PAPET. He's from James F. Murray Public School Number 38. We start off with Jacob. Round 1 begins!
Jacob's locked. Barry locks in A... He's right, and we continue to $2000.
Barry might know this one. He goes with 10,000... And he's got 200,000 pennies! Next up to help is Laura.
Laura is in. Barry decides to cheat on this, using his PEEK. Laura says, "TRUE". Barry decides to go with FALSE. Playing strategy? Yep. Laura's right, and she saves another one.
Barry uses his COPY. Correct answer is June. Before we see what Laura wrote... Here's Russell Hannigan, one of Barry's friends from 5th grade. He would've also thought August. They teach that in PS38, don't they? Laura wrote June! They're right for $10,000! We're up to the milestone question, but it's all Barry.
Barry can walk away with $10,000... or he can go for it... Barry locks in 24. That's right, and he's got $25,000! Let's look at the $50,000 question...
Barry thinks that it's either 32 or 21. It's a free question. The entire class has the right answer. Barry locks in 32... It's not 32. It's 25. But what do you care, Barry, you have $25,000! New student on Thursday. See you then! |
