Tonight, these three players are after big bucks...
[ Contestants cheering ]
...but they'll have to avoid the Whammy,
as they play the most exciting game of their lives.
From Television City in Hollywood,
it's time to press your luck!
And now here's the host of "Press Your Luck,"
Elizabeth Banks!
[ Cheers and applause ]
♪♪
Welcome to "Press Your Luck."
This is the game where anything can happen,
as long as you're willing to take big risks to win big bucks.
[ Cheers and applause ]
We have three contestants tonight.
Let's meet them.
[ Cheers and applause ]
From Chino, California, it's Lillian!
[ Cheers and applause ]
A car salesman from Northborough, Massachusetts,
say hello to Ken.
Come on! Whoo! Let's go!
And from Chicago, Illinois, please welcome Bettina!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Good luck to all of you.
Tonight, you're going to take on the Big Board.
It's loaded with cash and prizes,
and every time you stop the board like this --
Stop! --
[ Cheers and applause ]
...add some money to the bank, just like that.
Now, the player with the most in their bank
at the end of Round 2 gets to keep it
and goes on to the bonus game for a shot at $1 million.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Are you three ready to press your luck?
Yes!
I'm ready!
I am born ready!
Alright.
You're gonna need to earn some spins
if you want a crack at that Big Board,
and I have three questions for you in Round 1.
And here's the first one.
The squeaky wheel gets it.
The elbow variety gets the job done.
And according to Frankie Valli's number-one hit --
Ken.
Grease.
It's the word.
What word is it?
Ken said grease.
If you're right, you'll pick up three spins,
but before we find out, I'm gonna present your answer
plus two others to your opponents.
If they choose the correct answer,
they'll each pick up a spin.
Lillian, the squeaky wheel gets it,
the elbow variety gets the job done,
and according to Frankie Valli's number-one hit,
it's the word.
What word is it?
Lillian, is it grease, love, bird?
It's grease.
Bettina, what do you think?
It's grease.
Grease is the word!
[ Cheers and applause ]
That means Lillian picks up a spin,
Ken on the board with three spins,
and Bettina also picked up a spin.
Alright.
Off to a good start.
Question 2.
Hi, I'm a dress.
But not just any dress.
I was made by Versace.
Jennifer Lopez wore me to the Grammys.
Then she wore an updated version of me 19 years later.
Tell me, what color --
Lillian.
Green.
What color dress am I?
Ken, is it green, gold, red?
I say green.
What do you think, Bettina?
I'm gonna go with red.
[ Audience murmurs ]
Ooh, I heard the audience go, "Hmm."
[ Laughter ]
Why'd you go with red?
Eh, she looks good in it.
Unfortunately, she also looks really good in green.
Whoo!
Which means Lillian picks up three spins.
Ken picks up a spin.
Bettina, sorry.
Question 3.
30 days hath September.
How many days hath June?
Ken.
31.
Lillian, is it 31, 30, 28?
I'm gonna say 30.
Bettina, what do you think?
31.
Does it have 31 days in June?
I wish. I'd like an extra day in June, 'cause it's only 30.
Whoo!
Whoo, whoo, whoo!
That means, Lillian, you picked up that spin.
I'm excited!
Come on, and my son was born in June.
Sorry, Larry.
Alright, that's all the questions we have
in this round.
Now, you have a chance to turn these spins
into big bucks on the Big Board.
Let's go!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Round and round!
Come on!
We've got thousands of dollars
and plenty of prizes on our Big Board tonight,
but beware of the Whammy.
[ Sour note plays ]
[ Audience boos ]
Not only will he empty your bank,
if you rack up four Whammies, you're out of the game.
The player who ends this round with the most money
gets the advantage of playing last in Round 2,
so you'll know exactly where you stand before you spin.
Let's get to the game.
We start with the player who has the fewest spins,
and that is you, Bettina.
That's me! Whoo!
Bettina, you feeling alright?
Take a deep breath.
Channel J. Lo in red.
Let's make as much money as J. Lo right now on this board.
-Yes! -Come on, get it, Bettina!
Alrighty, alrighty, alrighty.
We need Big Bucks, Big Bucks, Big Bucks.
No Whammies, Big Bucks.
That's all I need is that money.
And stop!
You did it!
Whoo!
You did it!
Oh, my God!
Big bucks!
Come on! That's $5,000.
That's the most you can do with that spin.
[ Screams ] Oh, my God!
That's a lot to follow.
-Whoo! -Okay, Ken, how you feeling?
You ready? Four spins?
I'm ready.
Take your chances. Let's go.
Alright. Here we go.
I see a Nike collection up there!
I like that!
Never been out of the country before!
No Whammies!
And stop!
Move two spaces to $5,000!
Yeah!
Come on! Yeah!
This game is hot out the gate, everybody!
Hot out the gate!
Ken, you have a choice to make.
You have three spins.
You can press your luck with those spins,
or you can pass them.
$5,000 ain't enough. It's not enough to go yet.
He wants more.
I'm going. I'm pressing my luck.
Come on!
Help me go to Antigua, baby!
Add A One?!
And stop!
$1,505.
$6,505.
Come on!
Two spins. You gonna press your luck?
I'm gonna press my luck. Let's go!
$3,000! $4,000! $5,000!
And stop!
$1,900.
Yeah!
Whoo! Whoo! Whoo! Whoo!
$8,405 in your bank.
You are now the leader.
You have one final spin.
Do you want to press your luck,
or do you want to pass that spin?
I'm pressing my luck.
Come on! Anything but a Whammy!
Add a one!
And stop!
Yeah! Whoo!
$2,200.
Come on! Come on!
Wow.
Whoo!
You have the lead, Ken.
But, Lillian, it is time
for you to take your chances with the Big Board.
Okay, let's get some Big Bucks.
Big Bucks, no Whammies!
Big Bucks!
And stop!
Antigua!
Whoo!
You're going to the islands!
It's a trip to Antigua! How much is it worth?
Whoo!
$3,220.
In the bank.
You have four spins left.
Would you like to press your luck or pass?
I came here to play.
I'm gonna press my luck.
Big Bucks, Big Bucks!
No Whammies!
Big Bucks!
And stop!
$2,200.
Whoo! Yes!
You just took second place.
I'm still in second place,
I came here to play,
so I'm gonna press my luck.
[ Cheers and applause ]
I like it.
Let's go! Let's go!
Big Bucks! Big Bucks!
And stop!
Whoo!
$1,500.
Would you like to press your luck or pass?
I came here to play, so I am gonna press my luck.
[ Cheers and applause ]
No Whammies!
Big Bucks! Big Bucks!
And...
Big Bucks!
And stop!
$1,500 and another spin.
Whoo!
$8,420 in your bank.
Two spins still.
Let's...
Press your luck or pass?
There's some big money.
I am in second place.
I think I'm going to go just one more.
Oh!
"Just one more."
How many times have I heard that?
[ Chuckles ]
No Whammies!
Big Bucks! Big Bucks!
No Whammies!
And stop!
$2,750.
Whoo!
[ Cheers and applause ]
You just took the lead.
I did. I did.
Lillian.
Yes! Whoo!
You have one spin left.
I do. I do.
Do you want to press your luck, or do you want to pass it?
I think I'm gonna pass it.
She wants to pass it.
I need it.
She doesn't want that Whammy.
I want it.
Ken, she's ahead by $565.
This is a spin you have to take.
Let's go.
Good luck.
Alright.
I got to be first going into the second round!
I want to go last.
No Whammies!
I see Big Bucks!
And stop!
$1,500.
Yeah!
That's first place!
Puts him in the lead.
Come on! Whoo!
That's the end of Round 1,
where Bettina has $5,000...
Come on!
...Lillian has $11,170,
and Ken in the lead with $12,105.
No Whammies in Round 1, everybody.
When we return,
we've got more questions, more spins
right here on "Press Your Luck."
Don't go anywhere.
[ Cheers and applause ]
♪♪
That was awesome!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Welcome back to "Press Your Luck."
We just finished Round 1.
Elizabeth: Bettina has $5,000 in the bank.
Lillian has $11,170,
and Ken snuck right in there to take the lead --
$12,105 in the bank.
And before we jump into Round 2,
I want to get to know you guys a little bit.
So, Lillian, tell me about yourself.
I've been married 16 years...
16?
...to my wonderful husband James.
We have three handsome sons.
My oldest is 14. He's in high school.
And I have 12-year-old twins.
Whoo!
So, my life is very busy --
going to practice, their hormones,
all kinds of things going on.
[ Laughter ]
But I would not change a thing. I love them to death.
And you're here 'cause you're a risk-taker, I hear.
I am. I love to just go for it.
I love to gamble.
I like the honesty.
And so, I actually got this necklace made.
It says, "Just one more,"
'cause I always tell my girlfriends,
"Just one more drink. You'll be okay. Just one more."
I guarantee you'll be saying "just one more"
a few times tonight.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Welcome to "Press Your Luck."
And, Ken, you're from Northborough, Massachusetts.
I am.
Tell me about yourself.
Well, I just got engaged recently
to my beautiful girlfriend, Brittany.
Congratulations!
We're in the exciting phase now.
Yeah.
It's the planning phase.
Sure.
Yeah, exciting but expensive.
So I'm hoping that this can help me out a little bit.
You gonna have a big wedding, little wedding? What?
Whatever I can afford.
[ Laughs ]
And are you a risk-taker, as well, do you think?
I would say "risk-taker" is an understatement.
Oh!
I actually spent most of my 20s and 30s
playing poker for a living.
You were a professional poker player?
For many years, yeah. Yeah.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Thank you.
Wow.
Look out, Lillian.
Yeah.
Welcome to "Press Your Luck."
Bettina is also here.
You're from Chicago!
I'm born and raised in Chi-Town,
where we get four seasons in one day.
[ Laughter ]
I'm a GI tech, where we go from the rooty
and right up the booty.
[ Laughter ]
Get your colonoscopies.
What do you do
when you're not looking inside everybody's guts?
Well -- [ Laughs ]
In the summer, I'm a blues singer.
I love the blues.
Whoo!
You know, that's what we do in Chicago.
So, we do weddings, block parties,
anywhere they'll let me sing, really.
That's amazing.
Well, welcome to "Press Your Luck."
Thank you.
We're so happy to have you all.
Good luck to all of you guys.
[ Cheers and applause ]
I feel like we should jump back into this game.
Let's go!
It's time for Round 2.
You got to get some more spins
so you can get some more dollars.
Whoo!
Okay.
In Round 2, I have four questions for you.
Here we go with question number one.
According to a SurveyMe poll
of more than 10,000 moviegoers,
this is the most frequently purchased item
at the concession stand --
Ken.
Popcorn.
What is it? Ken said popcorn.
Lillian, is it popcorn, candy, soda?
It's popcorn.
What do you think, Bettina?
Going with popcorn.
You're all going with popcorn,
and that is right...
Yes!
Whoo!
...which means Lillian picks up a spin,
Ken, three spins for you,
and Bettina's on the board with a spin.
I mean, we all sneak candy in, right?
[ Laughter ]
Question two.
Dionne Warwick walked on by.
Aerosmith and Run-D.M.C. walked this way.
And Patsy Cline walked after what time of day?
Ken.
Midnight.
Lillian, is it midnight, noon, 7:15?
Noon.
Bettina?
I like noon.
It's midnight.
Let's go!
She goes walkin' after midnight.
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Ken! -Why am I following you?
I feel you could have more confidently answered.
Midnight! Whoo!
Midnight. That's what I want to see next time.
So, Lillian, no spin for you.
-Midnight. -Good job.
-Ken, three more spins. -I'm like, "Who's Patsy Cline?"
Bettina, no spins for you on that one.
I'm sorry.
Question number three.
She's known for her breakout role
in the movie "Sideways"
and as the Golden Globe-winning star
of "Killing Eve."
Her first name is Sandra,
and her last name is what common interjection?
Lillian.
Sandra Bullock?
Ken, is it Sandra Bullock, Sandra Wow, Sandra Oh?
Sandra Oh.
What do you think, Bettina?
Sandra Oh.
It is, in fact, Sandra Oh.
Sorry, Lillian.
No spins for you.
Ken picked up a spin. Bettina picked up a spin.
Yes.
An interjection is a word or phrase
used to express emotion and is often accompanied
by an exclamation point.
You're welcome, America. That's an interjection.
Bullock!
Alright. Question four, here we go.
If she sells seashells by the seashore,
and that seashore just happens to be in Atlantic City,
in what state are the seashells being sold?
Ken.
New Jersey!
Ken says New Jersey very confidently this time!
Lillian, is it New Jersey, New York, Delaware?
New Jersey.
Bettina.
New Jersey.
That's right. Atlantic City is in New Jersey!
Which means Lillian has a spin, Ken has three spins,
Bettina picked up a spin.
That's the end of that round.
Whoo!
No more questions.
Let's take these spins to the Big Board!
Here we go!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Whoo!
♪♪
I like the ride!
Whoo, whoo!
It's Round 2, so we're doubling the Big Bucks to $10,000!
Ken: Yes! Come on!
Now, remember, whoever has the biggest bank
at the end of this round
keeps all their cash and prizes and moves on to the Bonus Game,
where they could win $1 million!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Lots of spins to take to this board right now.
Bettina, you have the least amount of money in your bank,
so we are gonna start with you and your three spins.
Okay, okay. Alrighty, alrighty, alrighty!
Alrighty, alrighty, I need Big Bucks!
But more than that, I need a car!
I need to get off the bus!
And stop!

Can you read this?
It's okay. Get it out the way.
U-L-O-S-E!
[ Laughs evilly ]
Ooh, come on.
Ahh, I can't stand you!
[ Boing! ]
I hope the doctors in your life are not like that.
We're moving on. Two spins.

I'm gonna press my luck!
Yes, you are!
I got to keep going!
Alrighty! I need that car!
And stop!

You now have $24,670.
Lillian, you've never met the Whammy.
You have one spin left in this round.
There's still a lot of game left to play.
We don't know what Ken's gonna do with those spins.
I think I'm gonna pass it
just so that I can give him more spins.
You're gonna pass it to Ken.
Ken, you're behind by over 12 grand.
Yes.
You have one spin that you absolutely have to take.
You take that right now.
Alright, let's go.

A BMW! I know what those are worth!
Here we go! Big money!
Stop!
Double your money!
Ohh!
Plus a spin.
Ohhh!

And now you have 11 spins.
You trail by 460 bucks.
How are you feeling about those 11 spins?
Do you want to take those spins? Do you want to pass them?
I want to take each and every one of them.
Alright. Wow.

How much are dance lessons worth?
How much? $5,200.

If you pass those spins,
they go to Lillian.

He just gets along with everybody.
I'm so blessed to have him as my son.

Alright, good luck to you and the beautiful family.
So glad you guys are here
to lift you up...
Okay.
...as you face off against the Whammy over five rounds.
Okay.
Now, at the end of each round,
you can walk away
with any money and prizes that you've won,
or you can stay and press your luck
and play on in the Bonus Game.
Okay.
The longer you stay in the game,
the bigger the money gets on the board.
If you make it to the final round,
our Big Bucks Bonanza,
one spin could be worth $100,000.
Oh, my gosh. Whoo! Amazing!
[ Cheers and applause ]
You haven't met any yet tonight,
but there are Whammies out there.
Yes.
And those Whammies --
they take away all your money, all your prizes.
They take your bank back down to zero.
Yes.
Four Whammies, and you're out of the game.
If your bank ever reaches $500,000,
we automatically bump that up
to $1 million!
Oh, my God. Amazing!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Alright, in this first round, the Big Bucks are worth $10,000.
Yeah! Whoo!
But there's more than just cash and prizes
up there on that board.
We at "Press Your Luck" like to put very special prizes
just for you up on that board.
Let's show you what the first one is.
It's a gaming room.
Whoo!
[ Cheers and applause ]
This is gaming consoles.
I'm talking PS4, Nintendo Switch,
plus a whole VR package...
Oh, my gosh.
...an 85-inch TV, and a full audio system.
Oh, my gosh.
I also have sons, so I imagine this is for them.
Oh, my gosh! Huge!
This is absolutely amazing for them.
They'll love it.
They will love it.
We're putting that gaming package on the board.
Okay.
Alright.
Let's see if there's a second prize
up there that Lillian likes.
Oh, my gosh.
It's a Gucci shopping spree.
Whoo!
Oh, my gosh!
This is obviously --
This is for James, your husband.
[ Laughs ]
Definitely.
[ Chuckles ]
No, that's for you.
Absolutely for me.
Tell me about the Guc.
I love Gucci.
Sure.
But, I mean, he works really hard,
and I hate to spend his whole check on a purse.
But now, if I were to get this,
I could pick all my purses and wallets and shoes.
Oh, my God! It's so awesome!
[ Laughs ]
Amazing!
I love it!
We're putting the glamorous Gucci on the board!
Oh, my gosh!
Let's start this game.
You are starting off this round
with five spins that you have to take.
Okay.
Whenever you're ready.
Let's go! Whoo!
Okay.
I want that gaming system.
I want the Gucci.
Let's get some money.
And stop.
[ Sour note plays ]
[ Chuckles ]
Hey! I'm up! I'm up! I'm up!
Get out of here.
Aah!
[ Chomps ]
Oh, my gosh.
[ Boing! ]
Well, at least I had no money.
That's the good news. You had no money.
Right.
That's exactly the right attitude to have
when the Whammy comes.
Okay.
Come on. It's alright.
Four spins.
Okay.
Build that bank.
Here we go.
Okay, Big Bucks.
No Whammies.
And stop.

Whoo! That's great!
That's nice.
Yeah, it's exciting.
Yes! Yes! Yes!
That's nice. Three more spins.
Okay, here we go.
Here we go! There's a shopping spree!
No Whammies!
And stop!

Big Bucks! And stop!
$3,333.
Whoo!
There it is.
Good job.
Round 1 is done.
You have $12,733 in that bank.
Perfect. Okay.
You can just walk away right now with that money.
Or you can stay and play
and press your luck in Round 2,
where the Big Bucks jump up to $25,000.
Oh, my gosh. Whoo!
[ Cheers and applause ]
And you only have to take four spins this time.
Okay.
What do you think she should do, James?
Press your luck!
Come on! Let's go! Let's go!
Yeah, just one more round.
Just one more.
Yes. We're gonna press my luck.
Here we go. She's pressing her luck.
Alright!
I would like to add another prize to the board
'cause I think that's fun.
Absolutely.
Let's see what it is.
-Aww! -It's a "Sound of Music" tour!
That's so beautiful!
This "Sound of Music" tour
is a trip to Germany and Austria
for two weeks.
Oh, my goodness.
You see all the iconic film locations.
You spend five of those nights in Villa Trapp...
Oh, my goodness.
...the original
family home in "The Sound of Music."
Wow.
What does "The Sound of Music" mean to you?
We would watch this movie with my dad and everybody.
And, well, he passed away.
He always said, "I'll take you to Austria
to see everything"...
Austria and Germany.
...and I'm like, "Okay, yeah."
And we kept putting it off. So, now he's not here.
So this means so much,
and I would love to take my family.
Well, this is incredible.
We got to put that on the board so you can win it right now.
Okay.
Alright, you've got four spins to take in this round,
and you're gonna take them
when we come back, right after this.
Whoo!

[ Sour note plays ]
[ Grunting ]
Seriously?
Ooh!
[ Laughs ]
Aah!

[ Boing! ]
Okay.
You have finished that round
with zero dollars and three Whammies.
The good news is, in Round 3...
[ Laughs ]
...we do double up the Big Bucks to $50,000.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Okay. Yes.
Right?
It's okay.
I'm gonna land on it, and we're gonna be good.
We also want to put another personalized prize
on the board, okay?
And that thing is this.
-Yeah! -Ohh!
Yeah!
It's a new car.
That would be for my husband.
Every single time he tries to get a truck,
something happens.
First, we get a house.
Then I had kids. Then I had more kids.
So every single time we try to get a truck --
You put the money towards something else.
Yeah.
And he never gets a truck.
Oh, man. I get it.
Oh, my goodness.
Well, we're putting the Ford Raptor
on the Big Board.
Okay.
[ Cheers and applause ]
I also want to point out there is a Lose a Whammy...
Okay.
...on the board.
We're gonna go for that. [ Chuckles ]
So there's lots of game left to play here.
Three spins.
Take it away.
Okay. Let's do this!
Okay. We are gonna do this.
No Whammies!

Okay. Just one more.
Let's do this.
No Whammies!
Big Bucks! Big Bucks!
Big Bucks!
And...stop.
$4,000.
Okay.
Whoo!
[ Cheers and applause ]
$14,175 in the bank.
But you have three Whammies on the board.
I do.
You can take that money right now,
and you can walk away free and clear,
go spend it on whatever you want,
or stay and press your luck in our Round 4,
where the Big Bucks jump up to $75,000.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Lillian, what do you want to do?
Well, I have three Whammies, which is not good.
So, having those three Whammies
makes me feel kind of hesitant.
But, on the other hand, you can't win if you don't try.
That's it!
So I am gonna go for it.
[ Cheers and applause ]
We want to put one more prize on the board...
Okay. Okay.
...just for you, Lillian.
Okay.
This is the final one.
[ Screams ]
It's a Boy George private concert.
Oh, my God!
I love Boy George!
Oh, my God!
[ Laughs ]
I was him, when I was little, for Halloween.
That's how much I love --
[ Laughter ]
This is a private full concert...
Oh, my gosh.
...just for you and up to 25 friends.
You get to help create the set list
and spend one-on-one time with Boy George, everybody.
Wow.
Oh, my gosh!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Even in the car, I have -- I play it,
and I make my kids -- "Okay, sing it!"
They have to sing. Like, it's like -- I love his music.
James, does she make you sing it?
Yes, she does.
[ Laughter ]
We're gonna put that up on the board.
Alright, three spins.
Okay. We can do it.
No Whammies!
Whenever you're ready, Lillian.
Okay. I'm ready.
[ Cheers and applause ]
There's money, there's prizes,
and there's so much to win on here.
And...stop.
$4,500.
Whoo!
Okay.
The bank is up to $18,675.
Two spins left.
Okay, here we go.
Come on, Big Bucks!
I can do this.
Come on, Big Bucks!
I want some Big Bucks. I want some of those prizes.
They're so great. I want some prizes.
And...stop.
Whoo!
There it is!
-Yeah! -Yeah!
That's what I'm talking about!
$15,000 or lose a Whammy.
What would you like to do?
I want to lose a Whammy.
Lose the Whammy!
Get rid of it! Get rid of it!
Whoo!
Bye-bye, Whammy!
Go. Go. Bye, bye, bye.
Whammy: Nooooo!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Whoo!
Okay.
Do you feel like you can breathe again?
Yes. I'm so excited.
[ Laughs ]
Oh, my goodness. Okay.
Whoo!
Alright.
Okay.
One more spin.
Okay.
Big Bucks, Boy George.
Oh, my gosh!
[ Cheers and applause ]
Big Bucks. Big Bucks would be great.
"The Sound of Music" would be great.
Everything else would.
And...stop.
$7,000.
Whoo!
That's good. That's good.
Alright, congratulations. You survived Round 4!
Whoo!
Lost that Whammy.
And you now have a big decision to make.
Yes.
You can take the $25,675 in that bank
and just walk away,
or you can stay and face the Big Board one final time
in our Big Bucks Bonanza.
Take a breath.
Okay.
We're gonna get that decision when we come back,
right after this.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Welcome back to "Press Your Luck."
I'm here with Lillian, who has a very big decision to make.
You can walk away right now with $25,675.
That's a lot.
Lot of money.
Or you can press your luck...
Okay.
...in our final, Round 5.
If you decide to play on,
the Big Bucks go up to $100,000.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Not only that, because you have made it
through to Round 5, our Big Bucks Bonanza,
we bring back the Big Bucks
from all the previous rounds.
Oh, my goodness!
So that's $10,000 on the board,
$25,000 on the board...

Every square is $10,000 or higher.
Okay.
So, I just need to know --
do you want to walk away or do you want to press your luck?
[ Audience shouting ]
So...
Just one more.
Ohh! [ Laughs ]
He likes the phrase, too.
I know.
Well, I came here
because I wanted to come to the Big Bucks Bonanza.
That was, like -- That was my goal.
Yeah.
And there's so many great prizes, and I haven't got one.
And I appreciate the money, and I love it,
so we're gonna go just one more.
Yes!
And we're gonna press my luck.
She's gonna press her luck!
Yes!
I love it!
Alright.
Okay.
You only have to take three spins.
Okay.
Three spins. No Whammies.

-You had fun, right? -Oh, my God, so fun.
-Okay, good. -Yeah, no, it was fabulous.
I was -- This was by far the funnest ever.
