It takes a real man to take care of a real baby.
Unfortunately, we get this guy. He doesn't know it, but his baby-rearing skills
could add up to thousands of buckaroos tonight.
Let's meet Tichanda Thompson, a full-time mother and
a full-time model. Her husband Vaughn is a full-time principal, a full-time
husband, a full-time father, and from what we gather, a full-time burden. When
faced with the prospect of changing a poopy nappy, he retreats to his man-cave.
Don't we all. He also has a thing about Tichanda's wig collection.
That may change tonight, because Vaughn Thompson
is the subject of Tichanda's Hidden Agenda.
First up, we meet their best friends (that's the
last we'll see of them) and our actor Joe, who'll be a commercial producer for
the festivities.
First item...
TASK 1: Give Me a Head with Hair...
Vaughn has to wear some of T's hairpieces. She'll
get $250 for each wig up to $2500. This is a running challenge.
By the way... Baby Caleb is being cared for, in
case you're wondering. So far, Vaughn is wearing one... two... three... four...
five... six... seven... eight... eight wigs. And we have one, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight incriminating photos.
... Nine.
TASK 2: Big Baby Gerber
For $1000, Vaughn has to test three different
bottles of baby food for Caleb... soft egg, chunks of fish, and liver cream.
Hey, if it's good for RoboCop....
Did we mention that Vaughn is still wearing the
afro wig?
Vaughn has an iron stomach. Tichanda has $1000
more, $3250 total.
TASK 3: Invading the Man Cave
For $2000, you have to get Vaughn to turn his
man-cave into a koala day care.
There's a stuffed animal in the closet.
Interesting. It's a very big stuffed animal. Very interesting. And the wig is
off... very VERY interesting. Vaughn.. caves. Pun intended. That's $2000 right
there, $5250 total.
... by the way... TEN. That's $5500.
FINAL TASK: Set It and Forget It!
Joe's about to come in and cast you two for a
commercial demoing three products.
- For $1000, get Vaughn to change a diaper.
- For $2000, get Vaughn to wear a real-milking man-bra... a man-ssiere... a BRO,
if you will.
- For $4000, get Vaughn to dress and act .... like a baby.
First up, the baby doll is a little dirty. Let's
change him. It's Vaughn's job... and we're not making it any easy. It's
basically what Vaughn ate in the earlier challenge... with blue cheese and
pudding added. For texture, of course. Vaughn even wipes. That's nice ($1000).
Next is the bra... from California. Sure, blame
the Californians for everything. Vaughn just says that it feels... really...
weird. At least he has it on ($2000).
Vaughn is starting to wise up. And if we were any
wiser, we would've changed the channel by now. Joe's basically selling Vaughn
the idea by telling him to shame the baby for being bad. If only there was a
"network mirroring costume" so we can shame GSN for this. Tichanda tries to get
in the suit.. but this is clearly Vaughn's scene... and he acts it up. I hope
that onesie with the feet on it comes with a broom, because the Thompsons just
SWEPT for $12,500!
And of course... there's the little matter of the
reveal. Which shouldn't be a problem, because... well, Vaughn's already in a
baby costume. How bad could this be? Oh yeah, hundreds of thousands watching on
national basic cable.
More hidden cameras and more Hidden Agenda next
week. ... Oh dear.
