- Tonight, these three players are after Big Bucks.
But they'll have to avoid the Whammy as they play
the most exciting game of their lives.
From the studios at Trilith LIVE,
it's time to "Press Your Luck."
And now, here's the host of "Press Your Luck,"
Elizabeth Banks!
[cheers and applause]
- Hi!
Welcome to "Press Your Luck."
We are happy to have three teachers
playing with us tonight.
Let's go thank them and meet them, huh?
[upbeat music]
An eighth grade Spanish teacher originally from
Bayamon, Puerto Rico, give it up for Michelle!
- Buenos noches, everyone!
- A special education teacher
from Syracuse, New York, it's Ashley.
- Hi!
- And a sixth grade history teacher
from Burbank, California. Please welcome Rob.
- Hi, everyone!
Hi, everyone!
- Good luck to all three of you.
Tonight, you are taking on our Big Board.
It is loaded with cash and prizes,
and every time you stop the board like this--stop!
You add a little money in the bank, just like that.
The player with the most cash and prizes
in their bank at the end of round two
goes on to the bonus game for a shot at $1 million.
[cheers and applause]
First thing's first, let's earn some spins.
I have three questions for this round.
In physics, it's a force that slows you down.
In slang, it's a real boring bummer.
And on RuPaul's race, it's fabulous.
What four-letter word am I looking for?
[buzzer rings] Michelle?
- Drag.
- Ashley, is the answer drag, lift, flux?
- Drag. - What do you think, Rob?
- I'm gonna go with drag.
- Well, we all know "RuPaul's Drag Race."
That's right!
Michelle, that means you picked up three spins.
Ashley picked up a spin, and Rob picked up a spin.
Question two.
Do you like it on your back or on your stomach,
or maybe you prefer it on the side.
I'm talking about sleep, of course!
According to the Sleep Foundation,
which position does more than 60--
[buzzer rings]
Michelle? - Side.
- Which position does more than 60% of America
choose on a nightly basis?
- Ashley, is it side, stomach, back?
- Side. - What do you think, Rob?
- Side.
- It is, in fact, side sleepers.
[cheers and applause]
So, Michelle, you picked up three more spins for six.
Ashley, a spin for you for two.
And Rob got a spin for two.
Last question in this round.
Statistically speaking, what date
is the least common birthday someone can have?
[buzzer blares] Ooh.
Since nobody rang in, that means I'll give you
three answers to choose from.
Michelle, is it July 4th, January 1st, February 29th?
- February 29th.
- Ashley, what do you think?
- February 29th. - Rob?
- February 29th.
- And that is the correct thinking.
It is, in fact, February 29th, Leap Year.
So Michelle picked up a spin, Ashley picked up a spin,
and Rob picked up a spin.
And that's all we got.
It's time to take on the Big Board.
Let's go!
[cheers and applause]
♪ ♪
We've got thousands of dollars and some mind-blowing prizes
on our Big Board tonight,
but beware of the Whammy.
[buzzer blares]
If you rack up four Whammies, you're out of the game.
All right, let's get to it.
Ashley, press your luck!
- All right. I'm ready. Come on.
Give me that custom-made kilt. My husband would look so good.
Please no Whammies! Stop!
Ugh! You gotta be kidding me!
- Oh, no.
- See, little Whamlettes?
0 plus 0 still equals 0!
Whamlettes: Ooh!
[cackling]
[sproing]
- That was a teachable moment, which is that the Whammy
can come out at any time.
Two spins.
You wanna press them or do you wanna pass 'em?
- I wanna press my luck, Elizabeth!
- She's not afraid. - Come on. I want that--
- No more Whammies.
- Please no Whammies. Please, please, please.
And stop!
- $1,500.
All right.
That's money in the bank. - Whoo!
- All right. You have another spin.
You can press your luck with that spin
or you can pass it to an opponent.
- I'm gonna press my luck, Elizabeth!
Whoo!
Come on, no Whammies.
Please, Board, be nice to me.
No Whammies, and stop!
- Oh, doubled your money!
$3,000 in the bank.
All right.
Rob, get to it.
Here we go, Rob. - All right. All right.
Big money, no Whammy, no Whammy.
And stop!
- $2,000 in the bank.
Two more spins.
Press 'em or pass 'em?
- I'm gonna press my luck.
- Go for it.
- No Whammy, big money.
Panama, I wanna go to Panama.
And stop!
- $2,000, doubled up your money!
And, Rob, you took the lead.
One more spin. What are you thinking, Rob?
- I'm gonna press my luck.
I'm gonna play a little more.
I'm gonna press my luck.
- He wants to play a little more. Okay.
- No Whammy, no Whammy, no Whammy.
And stop!
- 1,500.
[cheers and applause]
Rob, you now lead by $2,500.
You're in first place.
But, Michelle, are you ready to press your luck?
- Heck yeah. Let's go!
- Let's go. - All right, all right.
Mama needs money!
Dinero, dinero all day.
And stop!
- Oh, no!
- It's okay. Shake it off.
Shake it off, girl. - Okay.
- Uh-oh. Goose egg!
[cackling]
[goose squawking]
[screams]
I'm being digested!
- All right, the great news is you still have
six big spins with the Big Board.
- I'm gonna press my luck!
Yes, let's go!
I would love to go to Panama, just anything but a Whammy.
And stop!
[buzzer blares]
- Uh-oh.
- I've come to take all your cash.
What? You don't have any money?
Wow. This is awkward.
[laughs]
[sproing]
- You have five spins left, very early,
a lot of game left to play.
- I need to build my bank.
I mean, that's what I'm here for.
So I'm gonna press my luck!
- That's the name of the game.
- Let's go, Michelle! - Come on now. Come on now.
Give me some love.
Dame amor, dame amor.
And stop!
- 1,600. All right.
Okay. How are we feeling?
You wanna keep pressing your luck?
- If it keeps going like that, I wanna press my luck!
Let's go!
Keep giving me that love.
Dame amor. Dame amor.
And stop!
Yes! - All right.
You're now in second place, Michelle.
How are you feeling?
- It's too early in the game.
I'm gonna pass my spins.
- Okay, well, whenever you pass,
the spins go to the opponent with the most money.
Right now, that's Rob.
You have no choice.
You have to take these spins.
Good luck, Rob. Keep building that bank.
- All right. Here we go.
No Whammy, no Whammy.
Big Bucks, and stop!
- $1,875.
- Whoo!
- Two more spins.
Press your luck, Rob.
- Leave my money alone, Whammy!
Stay away.
No Whammy, no Whammy.
And stop!
- It's the Big Bucks!
[cheers and applause]
Big Bucks for you.
That $5,000 brought your total up to $12,375.
One more spin you must take.
Good luck, Rob.
- No Whammy.
Anything but the Whammy.
No Whammy.
And stop!
- 1,500, there it is. All right.
Rob, the winner of round one with 13,875 in the bank.
More "Press Your Luck" right after this.
[cheers and applause]
- Welcome back to "Press Your Luck."
Now, before we jump into round two,
let's learn a little bit more about these three educators.
Michelle, tell me about yourself.
- So I am a mother of two amazing men.
I have Cole, who's 27 years old
who's brilliant in so many ways.
And Miles is 23.
And he's on the spectrum.
I'm a forever nester.
So I will forever have a friend with me.
- And I heard you are reigning Teacher of the Year
at your school? - Yes. Thank you.
Yes, yes.
[cheers and applause]
La Reina de La Escuela.
Yes, I'm the queen for now until the end
of the school year.
It's been a blast.
Haynes Bridge Middle School, love you guys!
[cheers and applause]
- Welcome to "Press Your Luck."
Ashley from Syracuse, New York.
Tell me about yourself.
- I have been a special education
teacher for seven years.
I married my high school sweetheart.
- Aw!
- And we had two beautiful babies
who just happen to be Irish twins.
So they're 364 days apart.
- Wow, two young kids.
But how do you relax?
You must find time to do something.
- Well, let me tell you.
I go to Costco all the time.
- Really?
- Costco is literally my nightclub.
I walk in, the music starts playing,
and I'm like, scan my ID.
Yes, yes, yes!
Get it! - I love it.
- Everything about it just, like, literally gets me
all hot and bothered.
- Hot and bothered by Costco.
All right.
Ashley, welcome to "Press Your Luck."
Good luck. - Thank you.
- Rob from Burbank, California.
You teach history.
Tell me about yourself.
- I teach in Burbank, California,
at John Muir Middle School.
Shout-out to the Mustangs!
[cheers and applause]
I've been a teacher for 21 years.
And I'm the cool rock and roll teacher
because I even have my drum set in my class.
It's too loud for home.
- It's too loud, but not too loud for school.
- Not too loud for school.
- What kind of music are you into?
- I like all sorts of music,
but the one that comes to mind is Guns N' Roses.
- Yes!
- Got any Guns N' Roses fans here?
- Please, I'm a huge GNR fan. - Ah, yes.
- We're going to Paradise City tonight, everybody.
Let's go. - Yes, we are.
Whoo!
- Good luck to all of you.
Let's get back into the game, okay?
It's time for round two.
Here we go.
If Mario Lopez and Jennifer Lopez were low on Pez,
they might go to a candy store.
But if they wanted breath-freshening mints
that are, according to their slogan, curiously strong,
they'd be buying a metal tin of what minty brand?
Ashley.
- Altoids.
- Michelle, is it Altoids, Tic Tacs, Icebreakers?
- Altoids. - What do you think, Rob?
- Altoids.
- It is Altoids. Michelle picked up a spin,
Ashley picked up three spins, and Rob picked up a spin.
Question two.
This two-word term is a device used in film and literature
as a way to mislead the audience.
This question could be an example of one.
You might think I'm looking for the answer, red herring.
But I'm not.
So tell me, what kind of animal is a herring?
[buzzer rings] Michelle?
- Fish.
- Ashley, is it fish, bird, horse?
- Bird. - What do you think, Rob?
- I'm gonna go with fish.
- It is, in fact, a fish.
- Yes!
- Yes. - Whoo!
- Oh, my goodness.
That means, Michelle, you picked up three spins.
Rob picked up a spin.
Question three.
According to a recent Pew Research study,
out of every five American adults,
how many say it's rarely or never acceptable
to play music out loud in public?
Michelle.
- Two.
- Ashley, is it two out of five,
three out of five, four out of five?
- Three out of five. - What do you think, Rob?
- I'm gonna go with two.
- Well, it is three out of five,
which means only Ashley picked up a spin,
bringing your total to four.
Question four.
The seventh inning stretch is a time-honored baseball tradition
thanks to its catchy sing-along.
[buzzer rings] Rob?
- "Take Me Out to the Ball Game."
- I'm gonna finish the question, Rob.
Thanks to its catchy sing-along,
take me out to the ball game.
Take me out with the crowd.
Buy me some peanuts, and what other snack?
Michelle, is it take me out to the ball game,
Cracker Jacks, Apple Jacks?
- Cracker Jacks. - What do you think, Ashley?
- Cracker Jacks.
- It is, of course, Cracker Jacks,
which means Michelle picked up a spin for five.
Ashley picked up a spin for five.
Rob, you got a little feisty with the button.
But let's sing along as we go to the Big Board, shall we?
[cheers and applause]
- Oh, wow. It's round two.
We are doubling the Big Bucks to $10,000.
- Whoo! Whoo!
- Now, remember, whoever has the biggest bank
after this round moves on to the bonus game
where they could win $1 million.
[cheers and applause]
Ashley, you are gonna spin first.
Are you ready?
- I was born ready, Elizabeth!
- Press your luck, Ashley.
- All right. Come on. Give me those Big Banks.
I wanna see what Elizabeth has picked,
anything but a Whammy and stop!
- Ooh, a hot air balloon ride
at the International Balloon Festival
in Albuquerque!
- [screams]
- How much is it worth for Ashley's bank?
$6,448.
- Whoo!
- Four more spins.
Do you wanna press your luck with those spins or pass them?
- Elizabeth, I wanna press my luck!
- All right. Get at it! - Let's do it.
Come on, anything but a Whammy, please.
Anything but a Whammy. And stop!
- Oh, no.
[soft flute music]
- Hello.
My name is Whammy-go Montoya.
I stole your money. Prepare to cry.
[grunting]
[cackling]
[booing]
- Three spins left.
What are you feeling?
- There is nowhere to go but up.
So I'm gonna press my luck.
- Go for it, Ashley.
- Come on.
Give me that trip to Bali, anything but a Whammy.
Stop!
- 2,250, and you picked up a spin.
So you still have three spins.
How are you feeling?
- Elizabeth, I came here to win.
I'm gonna press my luck.
- Go for it, Ashley. - All right.
Come on. Give me those Big Banks.
Please be nice to me, Board.
Be nice. Please be nice. Stop!
- Across the Board, 2,750.
[cheers and applause]
And you picked up another spin,
and you are now in second place.
Press your luck or pass?
- I'm gonna press my luck.
[electronic trilling]
Come on, give me those Big Bucks,
anything but a Whammy.
Take the lead, and stop!

Press your luck, pass those spins to Rob?

Let's do it. - I'm here to win!

Give me that Talking Tree Man and that trip to Bali.
Come on, anything but a Whammy.
Please, anything but a Whammy.
And stop!
- Ooh, Talking Tree Man.
- Ask and you shall receive, baby!
- This is an animatronic talking tree.
I don't know what that means,
but I bet your kids in your classroom will love it.
And it's worth how much for Ashley's bank?
6,500 bucks!
[cheers and applause]
Oh, Ashley!
[audience chanting "Press it!"] Whoo!
Second place.
The audience has a big opinion about what you should do.
- A million dollars is so close that I can almost taste it.
I'm gonna press my luck, Elizabeth.
- Good luck, Ashley.
You only need 625 to take the lead.
- Come on. Let's take the lead.
Come on.
Anything but a Whammy.
Please, anything but a Whammy.
And stop!
- No. Oh, my God.
- Taking your money is magical.
[screaming]
- I'm so sorry.
That is a tough one.
- It's okay. Thank you.
- Michelle is up with five spins.
And Michelle, you're gonna take those spins
when "Press Your Luck" continues right after this.
Come on back.
- Welcome back to "Press Your Luck."
It's round two.
Michelle, it's your turn with the Big Board.
Press your luck, Michelle.
- Let's go. Let's go.
I don't want any more Whammies.
I will put them in detention.
Give me some Sour Patch Kids for my students.
And stop!
- 2,000, and you picked up a spin.
Five spins.
You can press your luck with those spins
or pass them over to Rob.
- I'll press my luck!
Whoo!
All right.
Necesito el dinero, todo el dinero, por favor.
No quiero Whammies. No quiero Whammies.
Y para!
- Ooh, 4,000 and another spin.
Still in second place, 9,600.
Five spins, press your luck or pass them?

I'm gonna press my luck!
[electronic trilling]
Come on, Board.
Be good to me, baby, no whammies.
Stop!
- Ooh, I love this!
Pick a corner.
[audience chanting "Bali"]
She gets to go to Bali.
She gets $1,500 plus a spin or $4,000.
Which corner do you want?
- Bali! - She wants to go to Bali.
[cheers and applause]
How much is this gorgeous trip worth to Michelle's bank?
- 8,260.
Michelle, you just got the lead.
You are now in first place.
Four spins, press or pass?
- As much as I wanna hit Big Banks,
I think I'm gonna pass my spins.
- She's done.
Rob, bam, you're getting those four spins.
There they are. Good luck, Rob.
- Here we go. Here we go. No Whammy!
No Whammy!

Good luck, Michelle.
Three spins you have to take.

Stop!
- She got the Big Banks!
[cheers and applause]
You said it.
Big Banks, this is a fun one.
Show Michelle what it is.
It's an '80s-themed dance party.
- I'm an '80s baby.
Let's go!
- This is a totally rad, totally awesome
'80s-themed party complete with décor, photo booth,
dance floor, bar, cover bands.

My teacher friends would love this!

How much is the '80s-themed party
worth for Michelle's bank?

We throwing a fun party.
Michelle, 52,910 in the bank.
Two spins you have to take.
Press your luck.
Good luck, Michelle.

for what I want.
I want the Mustang.
No Whammy, please.
- That's fun. Come on!
- And para!
[screams]
- No!
No! No! No!
Not the party!
- [cackling]
[sproing]
- Ooh, Michelle.
I am so sorry.
One more spin.
As a reminder, there's a car up there.
Take the Lead is up there, or you can pass it to Rob.
See what happens.
- Still, I've got to press my luck!
Let's go!
- She's gotta press her luck.
It comes down to this unless you pick up a spin.
You need 27,126 in that bank to beat Rob.
Good luck, Michelle. Good luck, Rob.
Let's see what happens, everybody.
Whoo, "Press Your Luck."
- Go take the lead and a spin or the Ford Mustang.
I need big, big money!
And stop!
- 1,500, it doesn't do it.
Rob is the winner!
[cheers and applause]
Rob, you just won cash and prizes totaling 27,125.
Sadly, we say good night now to Michelle, Ashley.
You guys were incredible.
Thank you for all you do in your classrooms every day.
Up next is the bonus game.
Rob is playing for cash and prizes of up to $1 million,
so you need to keep it right here
because "Press Your Luck" is coming right back.
[upbeat music]
[cheers and applause]
- Welcome back to "Press Your Luck"
where we are celebrating teachers tonight,
including Rob,
who just won $27,125 in cash,
all yours to keep no matter what.
But now it's just you versus our Big Board tonight.
And you could go home a millionaire.
[cheers and applause]
Rob, how are you feeling after that amazing teacher showdown?
- Oh, I've played against two amazing teachers.
I wanna give a shout-out to them for all their hard work.
- Totally.
You also have a special person here with you tonight.
Will you introduce me?
- Hi! Hi!
This is my girlfriend, Erica.
- Hi, Erica!
- She is my better half.
She makes me a better man.
So, thank you.
- What do you guys do for fun?
What are your dates like?
- Well, we like to watch classic movies.
He's, like, an encyclopedia of movies.
That's his thing.
And so he's introduced me to new movies.
- So let's name all of my movies that you've watched.
- That's a laundry list.
- No? Are we not doing that?
Is that not what the show is? Okay.
Well, Rob, good luck tonight.
You're gonna face off against the Whammy
over five rounds.
If you make it to the final round,
our Big Bucks Bonanza,
one spin could be worth $100,000.
[cheers and applause]
But there are still Whammies out there.
Four Whammies puts you out of our game.
If your bank in the bonus round ever reaches $500,000,
the game ends, and we automatically bump
your total winnings to $1 million.
- Whoo!
Whoo!
Let's do this! - All right.
In this first round, the Big Bucks are worth $10,000.
But there's always more than just cash up on the Board.
We've picked some personalized prizes just for you.
Let's see Rob's first one.
It's a Rodeo Drive Shopping Spree.
Chanel, Fendi, Gucci, Christian Louboutin.
- This isn't for me.
It's actually for Erica.
- Oh!
Your own pretty woman! - "Pretty Woman."
- That's because of the movie "Pretty Woman."
We enjoyed the scene where she gets
that shopping spree with Richard Gere, so--
- Big mistake. - Big mistake.
- Big mistake, big, like, huge.
- Yes.
So this is for Erica.
- I hope you get that Rodeo Drive shopping spree.
Put it up on the board for Rob and Erica.
All right, we got another one ready for you.
You wanna see what it is? - Yes, I do.
- All right.
Let's show Rob his second personalized prize.
It's a drum set!
[cheers and applause]
- Yes!
[percussive rhythm plays]
Six-piece DW Collector's drum set.
What would having a new drum kit mean to you?
- I've been using the same kit for over 20 years now.
And I think it's time for an upgrade.
And I could play louder in the classroom!
- [laughs] You are gonna inspire
a generation of drummers, Rob.
All right, let's put that drum set up on the board for Rob
to win right now, because it's time to get to the game.
You're starting off this first round with five spins.
- I am ready to press my luck!
[cheers and applause]
- Oh, Rob. Let's go.
I can't wait. - No Whammy! No Whammy!
I want that shopping spree.
For me, I need that new drum kit.
Big Bucks, and stop!
- 3,100 in the bank. - All right, all right,
all right, all right. - All right.
- All right. We got this. We got this.
- Four more spins.
- You stay away from me, you Whammy!
Big Bucks, Big Bucks.
No Whammy, and stop!
Oh, yeah! Yeah!
- 3,333 bucks, 6,433 in the bank.
Come on. Keep shining! - All right. Here we go.
No Whammy! No Whammy!
Leave me alone, Whammy!
Let's get that shopping spree for Erica
and a new drum set for me!
No Whammy, and stop!
- 3,000 and you picked up a spin.
- All right. All right. All right.
- Three more chances to win.
- Here we go. Here we go.
No Whammy! No Whammy!
Big Bucks.
We don't like you, Whammy!
And stop!
- 2,250. - All right. All right.
All right.
Yes, feeling great!
- 11,683, two more spins.
Let's get the Big Bucks!
- Big Bucks, Big Bucks.
You heard the lady.
Big Bucks! No Whammy!
No Whammy! And stop!
- 5,000! - Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay.
- 16,683.
One more spin.
- All right. Here we go.
We still need that shopping spree.
I could use a new drum set.
But I don't want the Whammy!
No Whammy! And stop!
Yes! - 3,500.
All right.
[cheers and applause]
Rob, come on.
Whoo!
You made it through round one, no Whammy!
All cash, 20,183 in the bank.
Beautiful chunk of change,
and you can walk away right now with that money
or you can stay and press your luck in round two,
where the Big Bucks jump up to $25,000.
- I'm gonna press my luck!
- Whoo! All right.
This audience is so excited for you.
Let's add another prize to the Board, shall we, Rob?
- All right. Here we go.
- Show 'em what it is.
It's In-N-Out Burger school party.
This is In-N-Out for your entire school,
four In-N-Out trucks dish out hamburgers,
cheeseburgers, double doubles.
This is for all 1,500 students
and staff members of your school.
- To give some sort of recognition to the students
and my fellow co-workers, not just teachers,
but the support staff, this is the least I could do for them.
I'm playing for you, Muir!
Where's the camera? Where's the camera?
I'm playing for you, Muir!
- Let's put the In-N-Out for the school
up on the Board for Rob.
You're gonna play for that In-N-Out burger school party
and the Big Bucks when "Press Your Luck"
returns right after this.
Stick around.

And before you make your decision,
I would like you to look
at what your next prize would be if you decide
to stay and press your luck.
Let's show Rob what his next prize
would be if he stays to play.
We're sending you to South Korea.
This is for you and your whole family.
This is 12 extraordinary nights in South Korea.
What would this mean for you?

We immigrated here in 1981.

Do you wanna consult Erica?

What do you think he should do?
- I think he should press his luck.
Go big or go home.
Go big. - Do you think so?
Wow.
- She said press it.
I gotta go with what Erica says.
- Whoa, Erica!
He's gonna stay and play in round three,
which means this incredible trip
for you and your whole family to South Korea.
That's up on the Big Board!
There it is! - Whoo!

- Okay. - Okay?
Win it all.
