Episode 101/102 "Tick tick boom." -The Hives The game that we've all been waiting for is finally here. Ten tasks... One minute each... One million dollars cash money. Can you win it in a minute? The game is so easy... You're given ten tasks that you can practice at home using ordinary every day objects. The bigger the money gets, the harder the task. For each task you successfully complete, you'll win money. Get to $50,000, and you are guaranteed to walk away with that much. You have three chances to complete all the tasks (called "lives" in game), and if you miss a task, or if time runs out, you will lose a life. Lose all three, and it's game over. First to play on the stage is a bouncer from Queen City, TX... STEPHEN "BIG STEVE" COLLIER. LEVEL 1 - $1000: HANKY PANKY. Using only one hand, a contestant must empty an entire box of 160 tissues. As always, "failure to complete this task in 60 seconds may result in ELIMINATION." LEVEL 1 COMPLETE (:06) - $1000. Steve plays on. LEVEL 2 - $2500: BOBBLEHEAD.

A contestant must throw bean bags underhand at a wall of six taplights, turning them off. But be careful, because if you throw them at a light you turned off, then it will turn back on. (COMPLETE, :23, $50,000). Next up, a freeball game... Steve might as well play, because he has nothing to lose. LEVEL 6 - $75,000: NUTSTACKER. A nut is useless without a bolt.
