Stephenson/Sass/Li/Kabat
February 25


Another four teams of kids and dads will put pride on the line for $50,000 and the right for their kid to shout in all honesty the show's title.

Let's meet the teams!

Team STEPHENSON: Mike is a Navy SEAL here to create a memory with his son Shane before he goes back to the front line.

Team SASS: Larry's here to prove business isn't his only priority with his daughter Jessica.

Team LI: Dr. Leo is here to operate with his son Christopher.

Team KABAT: At 5'3", personal trainer Luke says he's got the best teammate - his son Derrick - and the biggest heart.

The Test of Speed: Alphabet Soup

In a soup of green slime there are eight letters. Find them, pull them out one at a time and give them to your kid to spell. Last team to finish will be penalized in the next round.

After a few entertaining pratfalls, we learn the word is ELEVATOR. Team Li elevates to #1, followed by Team Stephenson and Team Kabat. Team Sass will have a penalty going into the next round.

The Test of Agility: Out on a Limb

This tree is more than four stories tall. On it, six nests with 32 eggs total. The higher the next, the more eggs. Race up the tree and toss as many eggs as you can to your kid. Cracked or broken eggs do not count. Fewest eggs will be eliminated. They'll have two minutes.

Team Kabat gets eight.

Team Stephenson gets ... eight as well.

Team Sass, because they finished last in the last round, will be penalized 15 seconds. They get only two.

Team Li needs to beat three. They get four... and another to show off. That means that Jessica and Larry Sass are heading out the garage, but they do so with an Xbox.

The Test of Smarts

It takes three questions to advance to the next round.

What is the first name of Spongebob Squarepants' squirrel girlfriend?

That's Kabat with A... Right for 1.

At sea level, water freezes at what temperature?
a) 0 degrees Fahrenheit
b) 32 degrees Fahrenheit
c) -32 degrees Fahrenheit

That's Kabat again with A. Wrong. Li goes with B for 1.

Li is in with D... Right for 2.

Kabat fires with C... Wrong. Stephenson ties with D for 1-1.

Who is the main hero in the video game Halo?
a) Grand Master Flash
b) Adama
c) Master Chief
d) Ford Prefect

A's a rapper. B's from Battlestar Galactica. D's from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. That only leaves... "C, Master Chief". Kabat's got 2.

If you're lactose intolerant, which of the following will be the most likely to make you sick?

d) Shrimp cocktails

Stephenson is in with A. That ties it. This question is for the next round.

What is dry ice?

Kabat guesses B. Wrong. Stephenson goes with A... They're moving on! Come from behind victory! Luke and Derrick leave with an Xbox 360.

The Test of Bravery: the Scorpion Kings

We have a truck unloading dangerous African scorpions. Just take them off the dock and move them into your bins. Most scorpions will get the win and a shot at $50,000.

Oh, did we mention that Mike is deathly afraid of scorpions? And that two of them stung him? Good luck. Stephenson scores 46 stingers.

Dr. Li is staging a miraculous comeback, meanwhile... and he get 47! That's going to do it for the win! Meanwhile, it's time for Mike and Shane to head out with an Xbox.

Now the doctor and Christopher have a $50,000 matter at hand, but first, Christopher picks up an Xbox 360 and a Cannondale bike.

Now all Leo has to do is answer five questions about his son in order to pick up the 50 G's.

Who did Christopher say was his favorite band?
a) The Beatles
b) The Doors
c) The Jonas Brothers Band
d) The Wiggles

Leo goes with A... Correct for $10,000!

d) Mustafa

Leo locks in B... correct for $20,000!

Leo locks in A... Got it again for $30,000!

What did Christopher tell us he wanted to be when he grows up?

b) a fireman
c) a writer
d) an engineer

Dr. Leo apprehensively locks in A... Nope, it was B. But he can miss one and still move on.

According to Christopher, how much did the Tooth Fairy pay him for his first tooth?
a) $5

a) rattlesnake
b) tarantula
c) tiger
d) mountain lion

Leo makes B his final answer... And it was A. But that's okay, because the Lis are going home with $40,000, a bike, and an Xbox.
