[ Shouting indistinctly ]
Oh, my God.
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 Studio Center in Hollywood,
it's time to press...your...luck!
And now here's the host of "Press Your Luck,"
Elizabeth Banks!
Whoo!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Hi!
♪♪
Welcome to "Press Your Luck."
I hope you're ready to see some fireworks,
because tonight is our second‐annual
Fourth of July spectacular.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Hit the lights.

♪♪
Let's go meet our players.
[ Cheers and applause ]
She's a COVID unit nurse from Agoura Hills, California.
It's Natalie.
[ Cheers and applause ]
A science teacher from York Haven, Pennsylvania.
Say hello to Kris.
Whoo!
And finally, a COVID‐19 clinical trial manager from Nigeria.
Give it up for Anu.
Yeah!
And you've all brought along
some friends and family to cheer you on tonight.
Make some noise, friends and family!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Thank you all for being here.
Tonight, you are going to take on the Big Board.
It is loaded with cash and prizes.
And every time you stop the board like this, "Stop,"
you add 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 three ready to press your luck?
‐Yeah! ‐Yeah! ‐Yeah!
Alright, you're gonna need to earn some spins
if you want a crack at the board.
I have three questions for this round.
And you may notice a theme because, remember,
it's a Fourth of July celebration.
Here we go.
Cap'n Crunch, Colonel Sanders, and General Mills
walk into a bar.
I don't have a punch line for that,
but I do have a question.
Based on the number of personnel,
which branch of the U. S. armed forces is the largest?
Kris.
I'm gonna go with Army.
Natalie, is it Army, Navy, Air Force?
I'm gonna go with Army.
What do you think, Anu? I'm gonna go with Army.
And you are all correct. That's right.
Which means Natalie picked up a spin,
Kris picked up three spins, and Anu picked up a spin.
And no matter what branch of service you're in,
thank you for your service.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Question 2.
Apparently, a lot of Americans
don't know the words to the national anthem.
So let's find out.
Finish this line of "The Star‐Spangled Banner."
♪ Whose broad stripes and bright stars ♪
Kris.
♪ They so valiantly gleaming ♪
Alrighty.
Natalie, is it "who so valiantly gleaming,"
"through the perilous flight," "through the perilous fight."
♪ Whose broad stripes and bright stars... ♪
I'm gonna say C.
We can accept that answer, the last one.
Anu, please help me out.
Through the perilous fight.
Thank goodness for Anu.
[ Laughter ]
She got it right, guys.
And, Natalie, you said C,
which happens to also be the right answer.
Congratulations.
Kris, you were way off. [ Laughs ]
Way off.
Natalie picked up a spin. Anu picked up a spin.
Question 3. Whew, this show is hot already.
Hot, hot, hot. Fireworks all over the place.
Here we go.
If you take the number of women
who currently host the game show
"Press Your Luck" on ABC
and add it to the number of women
who have served as Vice President of the United States,
what number do you get? Anu.
Two.
Natalie, is it two, one, three?
It's two.
What do you think, Kris? I'm gonna go with two.
That is correct.
Natalie picked up a spin, so you now have three.
Kris picked up a spin, now has four.
And, Anu, three more spins for you,
bringing your total to five.
It is time to take on the Big Board.
Here we go.

Oh, we've got thousands of dollars and plenty of prizes
on our Big Board tonight, but beware of the Whammy.

Whoo!
Elizabeth: Welcome back to our "Press Your Luck"
Fourth of July spectacular.
Before we jump into Round 2,
let's learn about our contestants.
And tonight, we are proud to welcome three essential workers
who really stepped up during this difficult year
to serve their communities.
Nothing more patriotic than that.
Natalie, you are a COVID unit nurse. Yeah.
Tell us about yourself.
So I've been with my husband for 11 years, going on 11 years.
We have two beautiful kids together.
I've been a nurse for two years.
So when I was starting to get the hang of things,
I was kind of thrown into COVID,
which it's a humbling experience in itself.
I mean, these people, they had no one.
And I was the only person allowed in and out of that room
for 12 hours a day.
Ooh. So it's an honor to be there.
And I go into work and I thank my patients every single day
for letting me take care of them.
Oh, that's amazing.
Thank you so much for the work that you did
and are continuing to do.
Thank you.
Kris, you're a science teacher.
Tell us about yourself.
Hi, Elizabeth.
I'm here with my partner of nine years, Eric.
Hi, Eric.
I do work as an elementary school teacher.
I teach fourth through sixth grade,
and all of our labs are hands‐on,
and the kids absolutely love it.
That's incredible.
So how did you handle the last crazy pandemic year
without being able to be hands‐on?
Yeah. You know, it happened out of nowhere.
I mean, we had 24 hours to turn around
and get digital curriculum online.
Yeah. And I ‐‐ The kids were so resilient
and they really stepped up, too,
and it was really an amazing experience.
That's incredible.
I bet those kids are so grateful to have you as their teacher.
Thank you for that work this year.
Awesome. Thank you. And welcome to "Press Your Luck."
Whoo! Good luck tonight.
Anu, you are a COVID‐19 clinical trial manager.
Yes. Tell me, what does that mean?
That means I run clinical trials for COVID tests.
So the tests that we have out there to test our patients
who are sick and everyone who's sick
and who is not even sick of COVID,
I've worked on some of them, so that's what it is. Wow.
Are you responsible for something
going way up into my brain? [ Laughter ]
So we run the clinical trials, make sure they're safe,
make sure the tests are good, and then we send them out.
Wow. Thank you for that work.
My goodness. Welcome to "Press Your Luck."
Good luck tonight. I'm excited to be here.
Alright, let's get back into the game, yes?
It's time for Round 2.
I've got four more spectacular questions
for your Fourth of July enjoyment.
Hopefully no more singing. Let's get to it.
Extra, extra.
On July 6, 1776,
The Pennsylvania Evening Post was the first newspaper
to publish what official document in its entirety?
Anu.
The Declaration of Independence?
Natalie, is it the Declaration of Independence,
the Bill of Rights, the Constitution?
I'm gonna go with the Declaration of Independence.
How about you, Kris?
I'm also gonna go with Declaration of Independence.
That's right.
July 4, 1776,
we declared our independence.
Natalie picked up a spin, Kris picked up a spin,
and Anu on the board with three spins.
Question 2. It's the Fourth of July
and you're on your way to Six Flags.
You pull over at 76 to go number one
and grab a 7UP, some 3M Scotch tape,
and a bottle of Chanel No. 5.
Gosh, this truck stop's amazing.
If you want to take care of your squeaky car door
while you're at it, you might also pick up a can ‐‐
Natalie. WD‐40.
You might also pick up a can of WD what number?
Natalie said WD‐40.
Kris, is it WD‐40, ‐57, or ‐409?
It's WD‐40, Elizabeth.
What do you think? It's WD‐40.
You better believe it.
That's the only way to get that squeaky door clean.
That means Natalie picked up three spins,
Kris picked up a spin, and Anu picked up a spin.
Question 3. If you're like me,
you love a man with a beard,
even better if he's chiseled from stone.
So tell me, if you are staring up at Mount Rushmore,
who's the only president sporting a beard?
Anu.
Abraham Lincoln.
Natalie, is it Abraham Lincoln,
Theodore Roosevelt, George Washington?
I'm gonna go with Abraham Lincoln.
What do you think, Kris? Honest Abe.
All three of you love a man with a beard like me.
Teddy Roosevelt has a mustache, but no beard, see,
but he also has a little facial hair.
Okay, Natalie picked up a spin,
Kris picked up a spin,
and, Anu, three big spins for you.
Alright. Question 4.
Kerry Washington was born in New York.
Joe Montana was born in Pennsylvania.
But what U. S. state is Flo Rida from?
[ Buzzer ]
Nobody rang in, so that means I'll give you three answers
to choose from and a correct answer
will be worth one spin.
So is Flo Rida from
Georgia, California, Florida?
I think it's Florida. What about you, Kris?
I'm going with Florida, too.
What about Anu? I'm going Florida.
Of course it's Florida. I mean, obviously.
Natalie picked up a spin, so you now have six big spins.
Kris picked up a spin for a total of four.
And, Anu, you picked up a spin as well.
It is time to take on the Big Board.
Let's go.

Alright.
It's Round 2,
so we're doubling the Big Bucks to $10,000.

And remember, whoever has the biggest bank after this round
gets to keep all their cash and prizes and moves on
to our Bonus Game for a chance at $1 million.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Kris, you have the least amount of money in the bank,
so you spin first.
Take it away.
Here we go. Time to press my luck.
I need big bucks. I needed some spins.
Big bucks. That Mustang would be great.
And stop!
$4,000. Whoo!
Okay. Okay. Alright. You have the lead.

Alright. Good luck to everybody.
You're gonna face off against the Whammy over five rounds.
At the end of each round,
you can take whatever money, cash, prizes are in that bank
and walk away.
Or you can stay, press your luck,
and the longer you stay in the game,
the bigger the bucks on the board get.
And if you make it to our final round,
our Big Bucks Bonanza,
one spin could be worth $100,000.

Get it, Natalie! Get it!
But there's still some Whammies out there.
If you hit a Whammy, he takes all your cash and prizes,
brings that bank back down to zero.
Four Whammies and you're out of the game.
If your bank ever reaches $500,000,
we just call it quits
and we bump up those winnings to $1 million.

I need to press my luck!
She's going for it.
Since you're going for it,
I get to put another prize on the board
picked just for you.
It's a Nurse's Spa Day.
[ Cheers and applause ]
We want to send you
and all the nurses from the night shift ‐‐
facials at the spa, massages, mani‐pedis,
cocktails, poolside in the cabanas,
overnight stay with the women and men
that I know you have spent so much time with.
[ Voice breaking ] I can't even put into words what this means.
I work with some of the most amazing people,
and I just know the struggles this past year
has placed on all of them,
and they deserve this more than anyone.
So I need to win this for them.
I agree. They deserve this more than anyone.
We got to put that up on the board.
Whoo, there it goes.
You only have to take four spins in this round,
and you're gonna take those spins
when "Press Your Luck" continues right after this.

How you feeling?
I feel good. It's only one Whammy.
There's still so much on the board.
We need to go for it.
I need to press my luck.
Yay! Okay, yay.
[ Singsong voice ] This is so exciting. Yay, yay, yay.
[ Normal voice ] Because it's time to add another prize
to the board!
It's a Palisade and a Toyota Tundra.
Tell me about these two cars.
Those are very specific vehicles.
I love the Palisade because I just need a big SUV for my kids.
Right? And my husband, he has a truck.
He dented it, and he needs a new one.
And I just couldn't think of a more deserving person.
He's been through so much with me not just this past year,
but through nursing school, through our entire relationship.
I would just love to get this for him.
Thank you. Amazing.
Throw them up on the board. There they go.
Okay, I can't not put the Nurse's Spa Day
back up on the board.
Put that back up on the board.
And I honestly don't want the Whammy
to have your Chips & Salsa, either.
So put that back up on the board.
And you only have to take three spins.
Press your luck.
[ Cheers and applause ]
We need that nurse's spa day back in my bank!
Big money, no Whammies!
Stop!

where the Big Bucks jump up to $75,000.
Oh, my God.
[ Cheers and applause ]
What do you think, Natalie?
$3,000 is a lot of money,
but I need to win this for my nurses.
Yes. So I need to press my luck.
She's gonna do it. I love it.
She's gonna stay and play.
Alright. We got to put something up there
for you and your family.
Mm‐hmm.
Let's show her what it is.
It's Walt Disney World.
[ Cheers and applause ]
This is a trip for you and 12 guests
to fly on a private jet... Oh, my God.

at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida.
[ Cheers and applause ]
During the 50th anniversary celebration,
and we're also including snacks and souvenirs,
so you can bring home the memories
from the most magical place on Earth.
What do you think?
I mean, I would love to fly my mom out.
She lives in England.
I haven't seen her in a few years.
She hasn't met my nephew.
I would just love the opportunity
to take my entire family and enjoy each other.
We haven't had that.
And this would mean the absolute world for me.
It would be incredible. Yeah.
Alright. I hope you win this prize
'cause it's going right up on the board.
There it goes.
This is gonna be a really exciting round,
