as they play the most exciting game of their lives.
From Studio Center in Hollywood,

And now here's the host of "Press Your Luck,"
Elizabeth Banks! Whoo!

Hi!

[ Cheers and applause continue ]
Welcome to "Press Your Luck,"
where you need to take big risks to win big bucks.
Let's meet our three players.

[ Cheers and applause ]
From Los Angeles, California, please welcome Mathew.
Hello! [ Cheers and applause ]
From Augusta, Georgia, say hello to Falawna.
[ Cheers and applause ]
And finally, from Bakersfield, California,
give it up for Stephanie.
Hi, Elizabeth! [ Cheers and applause ]
And you have all brought along friends and family
to cheer you on and make some noise.
Here they are. [ Cheers and applause ]
Thank you all for being here.
Tonight, you get to take on the Big Board.
It's loaded with cash and prizes,
and every time you stop the board like this --
stop --
you add a little money to the bank, just like that.
The player with the most cash and prizes in their bank
at the end of Round 2
gets to keep it and goes on to our Bonus Game
for a shot at $1 million.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Are you ready to press your luck?
Absolutely! Yeah! Press it! Let's go! Let's do it!
Alright, you're gonna need to earn some spins
if you want a crack at that Big Board.
I have three questions for this round.
Here's the first one.
In 2020, Jake and Drake appeared together in ads
for what insurance com--
Stephanie?
State Farm.
For what insurance company?
Mathew, is the answer State Farm, GEICO, Progressive?
State Farm.
What do you think, Falawna?
I'm gonna go with State Farm.
It is, in fact, State Farm, Stephanie.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Mathew picked up a spin, Falawna picked up a spin,
and Stephanie -- on the board with three spins.
Question 2 -- in '69, Apollo 11 went to the Moon.
In '89, Voyager 2 went to Neptune.
And in February of 2021,
Perseverance landed on what --
Mathew.
Mars?
Landed on what planet?
Falawna, is it Mars, Venus, Uranus?
[ Chuckles ] Definitely not Uranus.
It's gonna be Mars. [ Laughs ]
Well, I mean, it's definitely not my anus.
[ Laughter ]
What do you think, Stephanie?
I'm gonna go with Mars, as well.
Good thing, 'cause I was worried
y'all were gonna go with that Uranus, okay?
[ Cheers and applause ] It was Mars.
Mathew picked up three spins,
Falawna picked up a spin,
and Stephanie picked up
another spin. Yes! Whoo!
Alright, Question 3 --
if you've texted this...
or this...
then you've sent an emoji.
[ Audience laughs ]
You rang, Mathew?
A text message. I don't know.
What language did the word "emoji" come from?
Falawna, is it text message, Italian, Japanese?
I'm gonna go with Japanese.
What do you think, Stephanie?
I'm going with Japanese, Elizabeth.
And you two would be correct.
It is Japanese.
Mathew got a little excited on the buzzer there.
You end this round with four spins.
Falawna, you just picked up a spin for three big spins,
and Stephanie picked up another spin.
You're on the board with five,
and now it's time to take on the Big Board.
Let's go!
[ Cheers and applause ]

Alright.
We've got thousands of dollars and plenty of prizes
on our Big Board tonight, but beware the Whammy.
[ Sour note plays ] [ Audience boos ]
Land on one, he takes away all your cash and prizes,
leaving you with nothing.
If you rack up four Whammies, you're out.
Let's get to the game. Alright.
We are gonna start with the player who has the fewest spins,
and that's Falawna. Alright, let's go.
Let's go, let's go. Big money, big money, big money.

I think I need to press my luck!
Let's do this!
I want to go to Greece with my kids!
Come on, big bucks and Greece!
And...stop!
[ Screams ] [ Sour note plays ]
Oh, that hurts. It's too early!
[ Gasps ] No!
It's too early for this! It looks like your money is extinct.
[ Both laugh ]
Aah!
[ Boing! ]
I'm sorry, Falawna. You're back down to zero.
You still have one spin.
Would you like to press your luck?
Elizabeth, I got to get back on the board,
so I'm going to press my luck. Let's go. Let's go.
Big bucks up there, big prizes.
Alright. Come on. Come on. Big bucks. Big bucks.

That's the Big Bucks -- $5,000.
[ Cheers and applause ]
One more spin. Press your luck,
or do you want to pass that spin?
You know what? We're gonna pass those spins.
Whoo, alright. Well, whenever you pass,
your spins to go to the opponent with the most money --
however, there's currently a tie.
So you get to choose.
We're gonna go pass them to Stephanie.
Alright! I'm ready. Stephanie, bing.
That is a spin that you must play,
and you're gonna play it right now. Take it away.
Let's go! I want big bucks!
No Whammies for me. Let's get some big money.
No Whammies.

Would you like to press your luck, Stephanie,
get on the board, or pass those spins?
They will go back to Mathew.
Since I have the two Whammies,
I want to do good in the second round,
so I'm gonna pass those over to Mathew.
Whoo! Alright. Bang, there they are.
Mathew, those are two spins you can't avoid.
You got to take them. Let's go.

[ Cheers and applause ]
♪
Welcome back to "Press Your Luck."
Before we jump into Round 2,
let's learn a little bit more about our contestants.
So, Mathew, tell me about yourself.
Well, Elizabeth, I'm a U.S. Army veteran.
I've been married for 15 years to my beautiful wife.
We have a 13-year-old daughter.
My daughter's a big fan of video games.
I collect vintage video games.
So we're passionate about our games.
That's really cool and such a great thing to be sharing
with your daughter, yeah?
Yeah, she's into video games, too, so it's cool.
That's incredible.
Thank you for your service, by the way.
Thank you. Good luck tonight.
Falawna, tell me a little about yourself.
Well, I am a single mother
of two amazing, beautiful daughters.
They're 10 and 12.
They have hearts of gold, and they love their mama.
[ Laughter ]
Oh, man. That's a great age. 10 and 12 are awesome.
Challenging, but great.
Hey, you know,
if it wasn't challenging, it wouldn't be as worth it.
I love you guys. [ Laughs ]
Good luck to you. Thank you.
Stephanie. Hi!
How you doing? I'm great, Elizabeth.
Tell me about yourself, Stephanie.
Well, I'm a librarian
at the college that I actually attended,
and I know it's kind of crazy, 'cause I'm a little wild
and people think of librarians as quiet,
but when I'm there at work, I do the shushing.
You seem like you're a big fan of this show.
Oh, I really am.
I've watched it since I was a kid.
And when I was younger, you know,
you don't have a lot of confidence.
I was always wondering why I was so talkative and loud
and a lot of people around me weren't.
I watched this show -- I said,
"Those are my people. I want to be there one day."
And I'm here! I'm so excited! Yeah.
We all loud here!
Alright! [ Cheers and applause ]
Good luck to all of you. Let's get back into the game.
It's time for Round 2.
I've got four questions this time.
Here we go.
If this classic rock band hailed from Ireland
instead of Australia,
some of their greatest hits might have been
"Thunder-luck,"
"For Those About to Shamrock, (We Salute You)"...
Mathew. AC/DC.
...and "You Shook Me All Night Leprechaun."
What's the band? Falawna?
Is it AC/DC, U2, Men at Work?
AC/DC.
What do you think, Stephanie?
AC/DC.
It is in fact AC/DC
who shook you all night long.
Mathew picked up three spins,
Falawna picked up a spin,
and Stephanie also picked up a spin.
Question 2 --
according to a recent survey on Business Wire,
out of every four dog owners,
how many let their dogs sleep on the family members' bed?
Mathew?
Two. Falawna?
Is it two, three, one?
Three.
What do you think, Stephanie?
I'm gonna say three.
Well, the only person who got it right is Mathew.
It's half -- two out of four dog owners.
Mathew picked up three spins for that.
Man, I don't let the dogs sleep in the bed, by the way.
Question 3.
According to Merriam-Webster,
the slang form of this word means "desperate for attention,"
but literally, it means you need some water.
Falawna.
Thirsty.
Mathew, is it thirsty, dehydrated, parched?
Thirsty. What do you think, Stephanie?
Thirsty.
Oh, it's thirsty.
Alright, Mathew picked up a spin.
Falawna, three spins for you.
Stephanie picked up a spin.
Alright. Question 4.
If you spent Saturday and Sunday hanging out
at the home of a current U.S. senator from Vermont,
you'd be mimicking the title of what slapstick...
Mathew?
"Weekend at Bernie's."
...of what slapstick '80s buddy comedy?
Falawna, is it "Weekend at Bernie's,"
"Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure,"
"Brewster's Millions"?
"Weekend at Bernie's."
What do you think, Stephanie?
I'm gonna say "Weekend at Bernie's."
The senator from Vermont is Bernie Sanders.
It's "Weekend at Bernie's."
Mathew picked up three more spins
for a total of 10,
Falawna got a spin for a total of five,
and Stephanie on the board with three spins.

Tell me about the waffles.
Every Sunday... Yeah.

That would mean a lot to me. And a trip to Europe to boot.
