What the show says...
"Inside this bunker is a world where only
few survive. Four teams in four rooms competing under extreme
conditions. Teams will face terrorizing traps, secret passages, and
shocking exits, leaving one final team with a chance to play for
$10,000. Can they do it? Who will crack under pressure? Will anyone exit
with $10,000? Are you ready to play.... EXIT?"
What the show means...
"Somewhere in Universal Orlando,
presumably on the same stage that Family Feud taped the first Steve
Harvey season is a world where you will survive, but you'll leave
empty-handed if you don't finish the game etc. etc. etc."
The teams are assembled in the rotunda,
where they meet Curt Doussett, in his first role as a game show host.

Game 1: BEAM ROOM.
The teams are given plungers. What for,
we don't know. What we do know is that there are beams entering the
room... and the floor is disappearing. To exit the room, teams must
answer visual puzzles as quickly as possible. The longer it takes, the
shorter the beam gets until it literally falls out from under you... and
so are you. You will have 20 seconds per turn.
Computer: Four teams will enter... Three
will exit.

fleet of boats + wood + Bernie Mac).
Game 2: FREEZE
BLAST ROOM.
The teams arrive in identical rooms, each
equipped with a Freeze Blaster that will significantly reduce the
temperature of a room. In order to exit the room, you will have to match
three puzzles on the walls. Once you've done that, you will be given the
password to the keypad, which will unlock a set of wire cutters. The
first two teams to deactivate the Freeze Blaster by cutting the right
cord will exit. The other will be put on ice... for good.
Computer: Three teams will enter... Two
will exit.
First puzzle: match the movie monster by
the method by which they were defeated: KING KONG, ALIEN, FRANKENSTEIN,
WICKED WITCH, THE BLOB
CORRECT: Machine guns, launched in space,
fire, melting, freezing.
By the way... if you're wrong... you will
be shot with a TASTE of what the Freeze Blaster can do.
Second puzzle: Match the state to its
capital: COLUMBIA, SANTA FE, BOISE, HARRISBURG, HARTFORD.
Of course, the correct answer: South
Carolina, New Mexico, Idaho, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut.
Third Puzzle: Match the animal to its
biological classification: TASMANIAN DEVIL, CHINCHILLA, TITMOUSE,
SILVERFISH, ALLIGATOR
Correct: Marsupial, rodent, bird, insect,
reptile.
Now who'll be the first to exit and who
will make a lovely ice sculpture? The b-boys get the code for the
wirecutters FIRST and have exited their room. The high school friends
are next, followed by the cheerleaders. You're almost out of time...
... and Rebecca & Jamie... are frozen
solid.
Game 3: QUICKSAND
ROOM.
The teams are put inside a pit of
quicksand. Each team must answer alternating clues about a person,
place, or thing. If a question is incorrect or a puzzle is not solved,
players will sink further into the sand until they're completely
submerged and will suffocate.

will exit.
