Tonight, these three players are after big bucks,

From Studio Center in Hollywood,
it's time to press...your...luck!
And now here's the host of "Press Your Luck,"
Elizabeth Banks!
Hi, guys!

Hi!

Welcome to "Press Your Luck,"

Let's meet our three players.

She's a stay‐at‐home mom.
This is Ann, everybody.

And finally, he's a marine biologist.
Say hello to Cody.
[ Laughs ] Hi, Elizabeth.
[ Cheers and applause ]
And you've all brought along some friends and family, yes?
To cheer you on tonight?
Hey, guys! Make some noise out there! [ Cheers and applause ]
Come on! Thank you, all of you,
for being here, and good luck to everyone.
Tonight, you are taking on the Big Board.
It is loaded with cash and prizes,
and every time you stop the board like this ‐‐ stop! ‐‐
ooh, 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 ]
Alright, you're gonna need to earn some spins... Whoo!
...if you want a crack at that board,
and I have three questions for this round.
Here's the first one. Okay.
You can get it from a beer or a cup of coffee.
Movies and actors can get it around Oscar time.
You might hear it right now
if you don't answer fast enough.
Mark. A buzz.
What four‐letter word am I looking for?
Mark said "buzz."
Ann, is it "buzz," "ding," "jolt"?
I'm gonna go with "buzz." What do you think, Cody?
I think "buzz."
Buzz from the coffee!
That's right, Mark!
[ Cheers and applause ] That means, Mark,
you picked up three spins.
Ann picked up a spin... Whoo!
...and Cody also picked up
a spin.
Question 2 ‐‐
I love a good sweatpant as much as the next gal.
As reported by Yahoo! out of every five Americans
who worked from home in 2020,
how many said their usual work attire ‐‐
Ann.
I'm gonna go with three.
How many said their usual work attire
was casual clothing like sweatpants?
Mark, is it three, two, four?
I'm gonna say four out of five.
What do you think, Cody? I'm gonna say four, also.
So, you guys wear a lot of casual clothes on Zoom.
‐Yeah. ‐Is that what's going on?
Whew, but the only person who got
the answer right is Ann. Yes!
Ann, that means you just picked up
three spins.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Guys, I wish I was
in sweatpants right now.
Alright, Question 3 ‐‐
she's a model citizen and a famous TV talent judge
who coined the word "smize."
Mark.
Tyra Banks.
Let me complete the question.
She and I even share the same last name.
Who is this fierce fashion figure?
Ann, is it Tyra Banks, Azealia Banks, or Vivian Banks?
I'm gonna go with Tyra Banks.
What do you think, Cody? Tyra Banks.
It's Tyra Banks! Mark!
Mark likes to get in on the buzzer!
I'm smizing right now. Ooh!
Alright, Mark, that means you just picked up
another three spins,
bringing your total to six.
Ann's got another spin
for a total of five,
and Cody on the board
with two spins.
And now, you get the chance
to take these spins to the Big Board
and turn them into cash.

[ 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, Mark, you love Pop‐Tarts.
I do. I know that.
But tell me something else about yourself.
I was born in South Africa.
I grew up in Dallas, Texas.
I'm a retail manager.
I work at a clothing store.
But my real passion is, I love to cook. Ooh.
I grew up cooking,
and, you know, I love sharing my love
of South African traditional cuisine
with my friends and family.
What's your favorite thing to cook?
Okay, so I love making these little African meat pies.
You'll find them at, like, every African corner store.
Like, curry meat pies, lamb meat pies,
shakshuka ‐‐ you name it.
Oh, come over. I'll cook for you.
‐Oh, yes! ‐I'll do it. [ Laughs ]
We're coming! You don't need to ask me twice.
[ Laughter ]
‐Good luck tonight. ‐Thank you.
Ann, tell me a little bit about yourself.
Well, Elizabeth, my incredible husband and I
have four amazing kids... Four kids.
And believe it or not, we are soon to be empty nesters,
as our youngest is about to graduate from high school.
And he's gonna go away from us
all the way across the country
to play baseball on the East Coast.
And is your youngest with us? Is this him?
Yes. He's right there. That's the baseball player, huh?
That's the baby.
What are you gonna do now that you're an empty nester?
Well, we won't be empty nesters for too long,
as we just found out
that we're gonna be first‐time grandparents!
No way! Yes! Yes!
Congratulations!
Welcome to "Press Your Luck."
‐Good luck tonight. ‐Thank you.
Cody, tell me a little bit about yourself.
You're a marine biologist.
Yeah, so, I'm from a small beach town in San Diego.
I was a professional body boarder, surfer,
and competitive swimmer. Wow.
I got my degree in marine biology
from the University of Hawaii.
I go, and I help protect the sharks and coral reefs
all around the world.
My partner and I met
while doing community service projects
and helping preserve the reefs out there in Fiji.
That's incredible!
Well, welcome to "Press Your Luck," Cody!
Thank you! [ Laughs ] Good luck tonight!
Should we get back to the game?
Yes. Okay, great. Let's do it.
It's time for Round 2. Yes.
I've got four questions this time.
Here we go.
Question 1 ‐‐
Dear Diary, I might be having my very first crush.
He's a foxy redhead.
He's sly with a bow and arrow.
And technically,
I don't think he wears pants.
Is that weird?
Mark.
Robin Hood.
I'm gonna finish the question.
I'm gonna put a copy of his 1973 Disney movie
under my pillow tonight and dream about him
stealing from the rich and giving to the poor.
What's his name?
Ann, is it Robin Hood, Peter Pan, the Tramp?
Robin Hood. What do you think, Cody?
Robin Hood.
Mark, you are amazing at this!
It was Robin Hood!
That means Mark picked up
three spins,
Ann picked up a spin,
and Cody also picked up a spin.
Question 2 ‐‐
a whammy bar is not a place
that our little red "Press Your Luck" friends
gather to have a cocktail,
but it is a lever that was originally invented
by engineer Doc Kauffman
to modify what electric musical instrument?
Cody. A guitar.
Mark, is it guitar, harmonica, keyboard?
I'm gonna go with guitar.
What do you think, Ann? Guitar.
Cody, you are right!
It is the guitar!
That means Mark
picked up a spin,
Ann picked up a spin,
and Cody picked up three spins.
Yes.
Question 3 ‐‐
we all know Beyoncé is the Queen Bey,
but if she were an actual bee,
how many wings would she have?
Mark. Four.
Ann, is it four, two, six?
Four. Cody?
Four. Four wings is correct.
That's right, which means Mark picked up
three more spins,
Ann picked up a spin,
and Cody picked up a spin.
Question 4.
According to a recent study reported by Business Insider,
which U. S. city do most Americans think is the rudest?
Mark. Boston.
Ann, is it Boston, Philadelphia, New York?
New York. What do you think, Cody?
New York. Why'd you say Boston?
Look, I've known many a man from Boston.
[ Laughter ]
They're not nice. They're not nice people.
Does he know I'm from Boston?
Oh, no!
Oh! [ Laughing ]
‐Ohh! ‐The ladies are great.
Mark, here's the thing ‐‐ the answer's New York.
I'm so sorry!
No spins for you!
But Ann picked up a spin,
and Cody also picked up a spin.
And now it's time
to take these spins to the Big Board.

I would like to keep fate in my own hands,
and so, what I'm gonna do is press my luck.
Whoo! That's what you're gonna do, girl! Let's go!
Good luck to everybody.
Let's do this.
Alright, we want big bucks!
Big bucks! No Whammies!
And let's stop!
Whoo!

It's not over!
You picked up a spin!
You're in the lead.

One spin left.
If you Whammy,
the game is over for you
and Mark wins.
Do you want to press your luck,
or do you want to pass your spin
back to Mark?
You got this, girl! Watch that board! You came here for the win.
Let's go. You got this! Ann: Alright, alright.
I'm gonna go ahead and press my luck.
She's gonna press her luck!
She got the advice, and she's pressing her luck.
Anything but a Whammy,
and Ann wins this game.
Good luck to everyone.
Alright, anything by a Whammy, guys.
Just want those big bucks.

I think I pulled a muscle. Are you okay?
But it's okay!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Welcome back to "Press Your Luck."
So far tonight, Ann has won cash and prizes
equaling $15,983.
Whoo! That includes a trip to Mexico.
Ow! Elizabeth: That is all yours to keep, no matter what.
But now, it's just you versus the Big Board,
and you could go home a millionaire.
Woman: Whoo!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Introduce me to your supporters.
Who's here with you tonight?
First, we have my awesome husband, JP.
We raised our four kids. It's been amazing.
So, JP, tell me about your wife.
What do you love about this woman?
She is the definition of our rock.
She's so giving.
She actually volunteers at a cancer research center.
So when she's not doing that,
she's hanging out with the rest of us.
And she's the epitome of awesome.
Wow.
And this is your son, right?
That's right ‐‐ my baby.
How do you think your mom's doing tonight?
Amazing. I love you, Mom. I love you. Love you.
And who is this?
Oh, this is my best friend.
We do everything together. Love it.
So glad you guys are all here tonight.
I feel everybody's got your back.
Yes. Whoo!
We are gonna face off against the Whammy
over five rounds. Whew!
At the end of each round, you can walk away
with whatever money and prizes you've got...
Wow. ...or press your luck
and play on.
The longer you stay in the game,
the bigger the money gets on the board.
And if you make it to our final round ‐‐
our Big Bucks Bonanza... Oh, my gosh.
...one spin could be worth $100,000.
[ Cheers and applause ] Let's go, Mama!
You got this, Ann! Elizabeth: But there are still
Whammies out there.
Four Whammies, you're out of the game.
If your bank in this Bonus Game
ever reaches $500,000,
the game is over, because we automatically
bump up the total winnings to $1 million!
Whoo! Whoo! Oh, my God! Go, Mama!
Alright, in this first round,
Big Bucks are worth $10,000,
but there's always more on the board than just cash.
We like to put some personalized prizes up there.
Let's see your first one. Let's see it.
It's protein shakes! Oh, my God!
[ Laughing ]
This is 5,000 Premier Protein Shakes
in all your favorite flavors!
I'll drink it all in a year!
Okay, what's going on with the protein shakes?
Elizabeth, it's actually my alternative to creamer.
I actually put Premier Protein in my coffee.
So, sometimes, it's like my crack on crack.
[ Laughing ] Whoa, whoa, whoa.
JP, she puts protein shakes in the coffee?
And I won't even try it.
You've never even tried it?! So ‐‐ No. No.
Well, you might have 5,000 of those bottles
in your house, so you're gonna get used to it.
Put those up on the board!
‐Whoo! ‐Whoo!
But we also wanted to give you this.
‐Oh! ‐Oh, my.
It's a prom...
for yourself. Oh, my.
Oh, my God! We're booking a DJ.
Oh, my God.
We're bringing in a caterer at a venue
overlooking the ocean in Laguna Beach
for up to 50 people. Oh, my gosh!
So your son and all of his friends... Wow.
Wow, Mom. ...get the prom that they missed.
Oh, man. Tell me about this.
Well, as you know, COVID was really hard
for everyone last year, and my son,
he missed out on all of those memories
that you would have in high school.
So, this is for him,
and, hopefully, I can bring it home.
‐Whoo! ‐You got it, girl!
‐You got this! ‐Let's go!
We're gonna put that prom up on the board.
