Beauty and the Geek One top shelf bartender. One computer nerd. No Mike Richards in sight, but we have a beauty and a geek in play for the million. The beauty: bartender SHANNON HOUSER (Bend, OR). The geek: visual effects artist RUSSELL LLOYD (Allen, TX) LEVEL 1: TILT-A-CUP:
One contestant must bounce a ping pong ball off the ground, while the other
catches it in a stack of seven plastic cups they are holding. The player must
then transfer the top cup to the bottom of the stack and then repeat the process
until all seven cups have a ping pong ball in them. LEVEL 2: MOVIN' ON UP: The contestants are given two stacks of 39 blue cups and one red one. Using alternating hands, they must move the red cup from the bottom to the top and back to the base by taking blue cups from the top and moving them to the bottom. First attempt: FAIL (TIME OUT, two lives remaining) Second attempt: COMPLETE! (:11, $2500). LEVEL 3: PLAY IT BY EAR: Eight closed soda cans contain pennies, starting with five and going up in five penny increments to 40 pennies. Only being able to shake the cans, the contestants must line up the cans in decreasing order (40 on the left, five on the right). First attempt... COMPLETE (:00, $5000) LEVEL 4: SUCK IT UP:
Using only a drinking straw, the contestants must suck up chocolate candies and
transport them atop positioned drinking straws. This must be repeated four
times. LEVEL 5: GO THE DISTANCE:
Three pedestals are positioned five, six, and seven inches from the start. On
top of each is a shot glass. Using only a tape measure, a contestant must place
a ping-pong ball into each shot glass. Final attempt (Russell).... FAIL (TIME OUT, GAME OVER). But the team splits $1000. Next up on the block, MICHAEL & RICHELLE MOH from St. Paul, MN, a married couple who met in martial arts school. If Mike looks familiar, he was a featured player on "Kamen Rider Dragon Knight". They want to start a home and a family with the prize money. LEVEL 1: ROLL WITH IT: Using a continuous windmill motion, a player must unroll two rolls of toilet paper onto their arms. First attempt (Mike)... COMPLETE (:23, $1000) L EVEL 2: BALL CAP: A bottle cap is placed upside down on the mouth of a soda bottle. The contestants must drop a golf ball onto a glass bottle so that the ball both displaces the bottle cap and lands on the mouth of the bottle.First attempt (Richelle).... COMPLETE!
