Episode 5.11 - It's the John Henson Show!
July 12

Twenty-four champions have descended upon the Southern California course of Wipeout. One of them will leave $50,000 richer. The others... will just leave.

THE WIPEOUT QUALIFIER

Tonight, the Qualifier consists of..

- The Henson Slappy Meal. Two swinging planks that come with fries.
- The Henson Panic Hammocks. Two blades of four bananas each.

The 24 members of the Skunkboy Fan Club will take on the course, and the 12 with the fastest times will advance to stage 2.

THE WIPEOUT ZONE

Three men enter, one leaves with $50,000. Tonight in the Wipeout Zone.

- The Temple Of Flume. Eight story slide.
- The Commakaze. Slide down the comma to the next obstacle...
- The Spinergy. Balance on the rotating ring while dodging sweeper arms.
- The Three Cs of Wipeout.

Fifty-thou will go to the player with the quickest time.

First up, Ashley Reaume, who'll move as fast as his furry feet can carry him. It's been a walk in the shire so far, but the Wipeout Zone is far less forgiving. He pulls himself up to a time of ... 16:37.

Next up, it's "Wipeout Impossible: Ghost Protocol" for Travis Woiemberghe. At a time of 8:49, Travis is now Top Gun.

Will Rudy Martinez come in with cat-like reflexes, or will he just be walking dead? His final time... is not enough. He needs to be perfect with one more shot to win... GAME OVER! IT'S TRAVIS WOIEMBERGHE, SHOW HIM THE MONEY! That's $50,000!

Next time, another $50,000 and another 24 brave, yet foolhardy souls to take on the course. Until then, good night.... and Big Balls.
