00:00Welcome to Battle of the Generations.
00:02I'm your host, Lilly Singh, and this is the Trivia Face-Off,
00:05where we don't just count the years, we count the money.
00:09Tonight, four trivia titans from across the country,
00:12each from a different generation, will go head-to-head
00:15for the chance to leave here with up to $25,000.
00:21Behind me is the vault, where all that money will be locked away.
00:25The more questions our trivia stars answer correctly,
00:27the more cash gets pumped into the vault.
00:30But just one contender will have a shot at winning it all.
00:35Let's play Battle of the Generations!
00:37I'm Kyra, I'm a 26-year-old Gen Z, and I am from Winnipeg, Manitoba.
01:00I am a trained esthetician, so I do nails.
01:05Me and my boyfriend are very into painting.
01:08I am a sucker for a Bob Ross tutorial.
01:11Outside of painting, we like to go to the movies.
01:15Uh, that's about it.
01:17I'm a homebody, which is why I need the 25K, so I can dip.
01:23The universe will be on my side.
01:29My name is Ryan, I'm a 35-year-old millennial from Hamilton, Ontario.
01:33I've been a Royal Canadian Air Force pilot for over a decade now.
01:36I have two kids, one's two and a half years old, and I have a newborn baby at home that's only a couple months old.
01:42I love spending time with my family.
01:44They are the ground support that lets me fly as high as I can.
01:47My mission today is to take home that money because, Lily, I need a minivan.
01:53I'm about to go full throttle on this cocktail.
01:56At Mark, I work in talent acquisition and recruitment.
01:59I'm a 46-year-old Gen Xer from Toronto, Ontario.
02:01I love baking, and I love trying new things.
02:04My husband and I love hosting dinner parties.
02:06Usually, there's always a theme to the dinner party.
02:08My husband is a millennial, so it's literally a battle of the generations in our house all the time.
02:13Millennials think they know a lot, but I'm here to show them that Gen X still knows more than them.
02:17The other generation should be afraid because I know a lot about a lot of things, and that's how I'm going to win today.
02:22I'm Tova Sherman.
02:25I'm from Halifax, Nova Scotia, and I'm a 62-year-old baby boomer.
02:29I know what you're thinking.
02:30Hard to believe.
02:32I live with disability on the ADHD spectrum, and I'm the CEO of Reachability Association,
02:37and I present across Canada on issues around belonging in the workplace.
02:41In fact, I often say there's so many things I cannot do, but I never let them get in the way of what I can do.
02:47I don't think a word's been invented for the level of competitive that I'm at.
02:51Let the battle begin.
02:53I live for this.
03:01What's going on, everyone?
03:03I am so excited you're all here.
03:05I'm so excited to meet all of you.
03:07Welcome to the Battle of the Generations Arena.
03:11Gen Z, welcome to the show.
03:13I heard something wild.
03:14Mm-hmm.
03:15Is this your first time out of Winnipeg?
03:18Yeah, my first time on a plane.
03:20Welcome to Toronto.
03:21What was the experience like?
03:22It was good.
03:23I met a friend, Paul.
03:25Okay.
03:26I don't know if he's watching this.
03:28He was very nice.
03:29Oh, that's how you know it's your first time on a plane.
03:31You actually talked to the person next to you.
03:32I did. We played Wordscape.
03:34Really?
03:34We did.
03:35Okay, go on a plane 10 more times and you're going to put your headphones in immediately.
03:38Yeah.
03:38I guarantee you.
03:39As a Gen Zer, you're a big believer of manifestation, I hear.
03:43Yeah, I believe in angel numbers.
03:46I believe in crystals, which I brought one.
03:48Okay.
03:49It's for luck.
03:50What kind of crystal is it?
03:51Do you know?
03:52No.
03:53Mm-hmm.
03:54Green.
03:54No idea.
03:55Green.
03:55It's a green one.
03:56Yeah.
03:56Are you one of those people where you meet someone and you go, wait, what's your sign?
04:00Yeah.
04:00Okay.
04:01Usually I just know.
04:02You just know?
04:02Of course.
04:03What's my sign?
04:04You're a Libra.
04:05Okay, Google.
04:09That is correct.
04:10I am a Libra.
04:12Okay, well, welcome to the show.
04:13Good luck.
04:14Going from someone who has never been on a plane to someone who flies planes for a living,
04:19Ryan, millennial, welcome to the show.
04:21I am an Air Force pilot.
04:22Yeah.
04:22That is so cool.
04:23And you also are a father.
04:25I'm a father of two.
04:26I have two little girls.
04:27Yeah.
04:27What's harder, flying a plane or raising kids?
04:31Raising kids.
04:31That's what I thought.
04:32Pilot training by day, potty training by night, Ryan.
04:35That is true.
04:36Something that fascinates me about you, and I don't think I can say this about any other
04:40millennial, is you own your own home.
04:44So because I'm in the military, I move around a lot.
04:47I'm on my third house, actually.
04:48Third house?
04:49Yeah.
04:50Potts sold two, and I'm on my third now.
04:51Okay, a millennial with a family and a house question.
04:54What crystals are you carrying in your pocket?
04:56My God.
04:57Best of luck.
04:58I'm happy you're here.
04:59Mark.
05:00Gen X.
05:01Well, I heard that you met your partner in a very cute way.
05:04Walk me through how you met your partner.
05:05I did.
05:06I met my husband when we were both living in Toronto.
05:09It was on Halloween.
05:10I was dressed as a very respectable cowboy.
05:14He was dressed as Big Bird because I'm tall.
05:18He's also taller than I am.
05:19So he was dressed as Big Bird.
05:20I got onto the TTC.
05:22He was sitting, talking with somebody, started chatting, and we both got off the subway at
05:27Queen, and we've been together for 14 years.
05:29Nice.
05:30Wow.
05:30Nice.
05:31That's so beautiful.
05:33So how do you feel about social media?
05:35Do you think if there's social media questions, are you going to ace them?
05:38No.
05:38I do not use a lot of social media.
05:40I think the thing that I use most is maybe Instagram, and even then, I have, like, less
05:44than 10 posts.
05:44So I really need to win today, so I have something to post.
05:49Well, best of luck.
05:50Tova.
05:51Boomer.
05:51Lily.
05:52How's it going, baby?
05:53I'm here.
05:54I'm in one piece.
05:55Life is good.
05:56Oh, that's beautiful.
05:57And we're happy you're here.
05:58I hear you're a little bit of a boss lady.
06:00You're a CEO.
06:01Tell me about that.
06:01Well, yes, I am the CEO of a charity in Nova Scotia dedicated to equalizing the playing
06:06field for persons with disabilities.
06:09And it's very exciting work, but it doesn't pay enough, which is why I'm here today, Lily.
06:13Incredible.
06:14That's such important work.
06:17You know, I heard a story that you, and I want to know the real story behind this,
06:22because I heard you're actually banned from your local pub.
06:25You get in a fight or something?
06:26Uh, usually, but that wasn't the case this time.
06:29Okay.
06:29No, actually, it's because I go only on Thursday night, which is trivia night.
06:34Okay.
06:34I win the bottle of wine, and I got asked not to come back on Thursday night.
06:38Wait, so you got banned because you kept winning trivia?
06:41Yeah.
06:43Y'all, are you hearing this?
06:44Yes, Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X, banned for being too good at trivia.
06:49Oh, I've been banned from being too good at so many things, Lily.
06:51It's hard to remember.
06:52Oh, Tova, a humble queen you are.
06:55I am.
06:55Well, I'm so happy you're all here.
06:57Best of luck to all of you.
06:59The vault is completely empty right now.
07:01Who's ready to start filling you with some sweet, sweet cash?
07:04Let's do this.
07:05Let's do it.
07:07It's time for our first round.
07:09Let's play The Money Maker.
07:11One by one, I'm going to ask you trivia questions that come from your own generation.
07:17If you get a question right, $250 gets added to the vault.
07:21But to make even more money, you can throw your question to another player.
07:25And if they get it right, they'll bank $500.
07:28Now, remember, even though this is a battle, this round is a chance to combine your strengths
07:32and put as much money into the vault as you can.
07:35And real talk, it's also the perfect chance to size up the competition.
07:39Are y'all ready?

11:37But stay tuned.
11:38Our first battle zone is up next, and one of our contestants will be eliminated.
11:48Welcome back to Battle of the Generations.
11:56The break is over, and the game is on.
11:59So far, our contestants have added $5,500 to the vault.
12:07But now it's time for the real battle to begin.
12:11Three of you are about to enter the battle zone that will send someone home.
12:15But you all have the chance to earn your safety.
12:18I'm going to throw rapid-fire questions at you.
12:21The first one of you to buzz in with three correct answers will be safe from the battle zone, securing your spot in the next round.
12:27All right, everyone, pick up your buzzers.
12:30Here's your first question.
12:32Good luck.
12:33Which Tom Hanks film features a volleyball named Millennial?
12:36Castaway.
12:37That's correct.
12:38The volleyball named Castaway is named Wilson.
12:40Next question.

12:49Next question.

13:02Gen X.

13:05You're now tied with Millennial.
13:07Next question.

13:11Gen X.
13:12The Flintstones.
13:14Correct.
13:14Which means Gen X, you are safe.
13:17Congratulations.
13:19Gen Z, Millennial, and Boomer, it's time to enter the battle zone.
13:26The Vault is going to reveal six categories.
13:29You'll each take turns picking one and then decide if you want a question from your own generation
13:33or one from your opponents.
13:35Stepping outside of your generation will earn you more cash and that's important because
13:39whoever brings in the least will be heading home.
13:42Let's see the categories you'll be playing with.
13:44TV themes.
13:45Tech first.
13:46Solo singers.
13:47Movie duos.
13:48Olympians.
13:49And famous characters.
13:51Now we've randomly selected the order and Millennial, you are up first.
13:55So, which category would you like?
13:57I'll take tech first and I'll take a question outside my generation.
14:00Okay.
14:01A risk taker for $1,000.
14:05Here is your Gen Z question.
14:07What is the name of the short form streaming platform that launched and quickly shut down
14:12in 2020?
14:13Roku, Vine, Tubi, or Quibi?
14:17So, Vine was earlier than that.
14:19Roku is not a short form platform.
14:22Tubi is a long form as well.
14:23It's got to be Quibi.
14:24We're going to go with Quibi.
14:25The correct answer is Quibi.
14:30Well done, Millennial.
14:32Well done.
14:33Okay.
14:35Tova, let's do this.
14:36I've got to make this happen, man.
14:37Let's make it happen, baby.
14:39Which category are you thinking?
14:41I'm thinking movie duos outside my generation.
14:45Okay.
14:46I've got to keep up.
14:46A bunch of risk takers.
14:48I've got to keep up.
14:48Okay, for $1,000, here is your Gen Z question.
14:53Name the 2019 film that stars these two as teenagers on the night of their high school
14:58graduation.
15:00Long Shot, Late Night, Book Smart, or Us?
15:05Not something I know a lot about.
15:07I don't watch a lot of teenage movies, and therefore I'm familiar with literally none of
15:11them.
15:11So, this will be, I'd like to say an educated guess, because for some reason I'm drawn to
15:16Book Smart.
15:16The correct answer is Book Smart.
15:23Way to go, boomer.
15:24Way to go.
15:27Gen Z.
15:29This is your moment.
15:30Kira, what category looks good to you?
15:33I'm going to do TV themes.
15:36I guess I'm going to go out of my generation.
15:39For $1,000, here is your boomer question.
15:42Listen to this.
15:46Which iconic TV series from the 60s uses this song as its theme?
15:59Aquaman, Batman, Spider-Man, or Underdog?
16:03Okay, so my dad is a huge superhero fan.
16:09So if I get this wrong, he's going to be disappointed.
16:12I'm pretty positive that it's Batman.
16:15Was that a question or the answer?
16:19That's it.
16:20No, it's Batman.
16:21Okay.
16:21Batman, yeah, yeah.
16:23For $1,000, and to make your father proud.
16:30That is correct.
16:32Way to go, Gen Z.
16:33We got ourselves a game right now.
16:37You're all tied up.
16:38$1,000 each now.
16:40Going into the second turn, correct answers are worth even more.
16:43The stakes are even higher.
16:45Millennial, we're back to you.
16:47Three categories left.
16:47What's it going to be?
16:49Famous characters in my generation.
16:53For $1,000, here is your Millennial question.
16:56Which of these characters was not created by Sacha Baron Cohen?
17:02Ali G, Borat, Bruno, or Zohan?
17:08I watched a lot of Ali G when I was young.
17:10Borat, big famous movie, Bruno.
17:13That's Sacha Baron Cohen.
17:14It's got to be Zohan.
17:17And you are correct.
17:18Well done.
17:19They didn't even break a sweat.
17:21Boomer.
17:22Let's keep this going.
17:23Which category are you thinking?
17:26I'm going to take Olympians out of my generation.
17:31For $1,500, here is your Gen Z question.
17:35Did you say Gen Z?
17:39Name the athlete from the Olympic Games Paris 2024 who is famous for these.
17:46Sha'Carri Richardson, Safan Hassan, Jordan Childs, or Sharika Jackson.
17:53Well, once again, I'm 0 for 2 in terms of knowing the answer and being confident about
17:58it.
17:58I'm down to either Sha'Carri Richardson or Jordan Childs, only because they're the only two names
18:03I've heard of.
18:04So, I'm going to have to go Sha'Carri Richardson and throw it all in the middle and hope for
18:09the best.
18:10Well, I'm sweating.
18:12I'm sweating.
18:12The correct answer is Sha'Carri Richardson.
18:18No.
18:18Way to go, Boomer.
18:21Way to go.
18:22Huh?
18:23Huh?
18:23Huh?
18:24What?
18:24What?
18:25Gen Z, you're looking a little nervous over there.
18:28Yeah.
18:28You got any more crystals in your pockets?
18:30I do.
18:31It's not working.
18:32Gen Z, there's one category left, solo singers.
18:37Would you like a question in your generation or outside?
18:40I'm going to do my generation, because if we get a tie...
18:43You can keep going.
18:44Then I can...
18:45Yeah.
18:45Good strategy.
18:47For $1,000, here is your Gen Z question.
18:50Congolese-Canadian singer Lucala had a hit in 2022 with which song?
18:58Showgirl era, baby girl era, sad girl era, or pretty girl era?
19:04I don't know who this singer is, but I have heard a song from TikTok.
19:10So, I'm going to go with pretty girl era.
19:14Okay, Gen Z, if you get this incorrect, you will be going home.
19:23Kira?
19:27That's correct.
19:28That is correct.
19:30That means Millennial and Gen Z are tied.
19:33It's time for a tiebreaker.
19:36I'm going to read your tiebreaker question that has a number for its answer.
19:40You'll write your guesses down, and whoever is closest to the actual answer will remain in the game.
19:46Gen Z, Millennial, please pick up your boards.
19:51Here is your question.
19:52Good luck.
19:54At the height of its popularity, how many blockbuster video stores were operating worldwide in 2004?
20:10Time's up.
20:15Let's see your answers.
20:18Okay.
20:20Gen Z, you said 21,000.
20:23Millennial, you said 2,500.
20:27Pretty different answers here.
20:29Oops, I forgot to...
20:30I'm sorry.
20:32I added too many zeros.
20:34This could go either way.
20:35This is to stay in the game.
20:40The actual number is...
20:439,094.
20:47Which means, Gen Z, I am so sorry.
20:49It is the end of your journey with us, but thank you so much for being here.
20:53Big round of applause for Gen Z.
20:59Congratulations, Millennial and Boomer.
21:02You're both moving on to the next round.
21:04Time to deposit all the money you've made into the vault.
21:07Ooh, ooh, ooh.
21:09Yes.
21:09You banked $10,000.
21:12Now, it's time for a quick break, but we'll see you on the other side for another electrifying battle zone.
21:18Let's get started.
21:19Ooh.
21:19Welcome back to Battle of the Generations, where our contestants are playing for the chance to win up to $25,000.
21:35Now, Millennial, that was a nail-biter.
21:38All the way to the tie-breaker.
21:40Are you surprised you made it through?
21:42Yes, but you know what?
21:43That means it's go big or go home from here.
21:46Boomer, what did it feel like to be in the battle zone?
21:48I don't even know anymore.
21:50All I know is I don't know.
21:51You made it.
21:52I made it.
21:53I feel good.
21:54Okay, good.
21:54Well, I'm glad because you know what time it is.
21:57It's time for more Rapid Fire.
21:59The first person to answer three questions correctly will be safe, and the other two will go into the battle zone.
22:06Y'all ready?
22:07Here's your first question.
22:09Good luck.
22:10What is the name of the lifestyle brand founded by actress Gwyneth Paltrow?
22:14Gen X.
22:15Goop.
22:16Correct.
22:17One point towards safety.
22:18Next question.
22:19Who plays the title role in the Rambo films?
22:22Millennial.
22:23Sylvester Stallone.
22:24Correct.
22:25Next question.
22:26Which 2000s game show hosted by Joe Rogan had contestants?
22:30Gen X.
22:31Fear Factor.
22:32Correct.
22:33They performed terrifying stunts on Fear Factor.
22:35Next question.
22:36What polarizing pizza order was actually created in Canada?
22:40Gen X.
22:41Hawaiian pizza.
22:42That's correct.
22:44Hawaiian pizza was created in Canada in 1962, which means Gen X, you are safe.
22:50And we'll be moving on to the next round.
22:52Millennial and Boomer, it's time to enter the battle zone.
22:56This is just like the last round, except you'll have only four categories to choose from.
23:05Celebrities, Academy Awards, Kids TV, and Innovations.
23:09Boomer, you have control of the board.
23:12So, Tova, which category would you like?
23:14I'm going with Academy Awards outside my generation.
23:19For $1,000, here is your millennial question.
23:24For which film did Julia Roberts win the Academy Award for Best Actress?
23:29Pretty Woman, Erin Brockovich, August Osage County, or The Pelican Brief?
23:35Great question.
23:36One I feel a little more confident about.
23:38If she won for Pretty Woman, that's a shame because it wasn't that good.
23:41If it was Pelican Brief, I'm obsessed with Denzel Washington, but again, she didn't shine.
23:48I would have to say it's Erin Brockovich.
23:50It was just a dynamite movie, and she was dynamite in it.
23:54Wow.
23:55Okay.
23:56Knowledge mixed with shade.
23:58I like that.
23:59I like that.
24:01That's correct, Tova.
24:02That is correct.
24:03Off to an early lead.
24:06Millennial, you've been in the battle zone before.
24:08Three categories.
24:09Which one is speaking to you?
24:11All right.
24:12Let's go kids TV outside my generation.
24:15For $1,000, here is your boomer question.
24:19Bob Keishin starred as which children's TV character?
24:22Bozo the Clown, Mr. Dress Up, Captain Kangaroo, or Howdy Doody?
24:29Oh, don't think he's Mr. Dress Up.
24:34Howdy Doody, Captain Kangaroo, Bozo the Clown, I haven't even heard of.
24:37So, and go with Bozo the Clown.
24:42You're going Bozo the Clown?
24:44Yeah.
24:44Okay.
24:45The correct answer is Captain Kangaroo.
24:50You're incorrect, Millennial.
24:52Well, that's okay.
24:53That's okay.
24:54Because we're going into the second turn of the round now, so correct answers are worth even more.
24:59Boomer, we're back to you.
25:00Two categories left.
25:01I'm not famous for innovation, so I think I'm going to have to go with celebrities in my generation.
25:08For $1,000, here is your boomer question.
25:13Who was the host of the Hollywood Squares for over 5,000 episodes from 1966 to 1981?
25:19John Bowman, Peter Marshall, John Davidson, or Tom Bergeron?
25:26Tom Bergeron's too young, although I don't look at him as being young, but he does, I think, that Dancing with the Stars thing.
25:32John Davidson, he was just like a pretty boy back in my day.
25:36I do not know who John Bowman is, so my logical real answer is Peter Marshall.
25:42He had those big, goofy glasses, and I'll never forget, Paul Lind was in the center square, and I always thought he was very racy.
25:51So you're going with Peter Marshall?
25:52Peter Marshall.
25:53I'm sure I gave you an answer in there somewhere, didn't I?
25:56All right.
25:57For the win, Tova.
26:01Lily, you are correct, which means, millennial, there is no way you can catch up to our boomer, and you will be heading home.
26:13Thank you so much for being here.
26:14Big round of applause for our millennial, please.
26:18I hope you get that minivan somehow.
26:22Congratulations, boomer.
26:23Time to deposit.
26:24You're winning from this round.
26:25Let's see it.
26:26There's now $12,000 in the vault.
26:32After the break, we're going into the final face-off, where our Gen X and boomer will battle it out for the chance to win up to $25,000.
26:41Stay with us.
26:43Tova.
26:44Tova.
26:44Tova.
26:45Tova.
26:51Welcome back to Battle of the Generations.
26:53Our millennials' flight ran into some rough weather in the last round, making Boomer and Gen X our final two.
27:01Woo!
27:01Talk to me, Boomer.
27:02How does it feel?
27:03You made it to the final face-off.
27:04I have no clue how, but I couldn't be happier.
27:07We're happy for you.
27:08We're happy you're here.
27:10Now, Gen X, out of the $12,000 in the vault, Boomer has added half of that into the vault, so you might be owing her a big thank you.
27:18You're welcome.
27:19If I win, yeah.
27:20If you win.
27:20It all comes down to this.
27:24Gen X, Boomer.
27:26It's time to go head-to-head in the final face-off.
27:29This round will have five questions, which you'll both be answering at the same time.
27:37For each question, I'm going to show you four famous faces, three of whom have something in common.
27:42Your job is to find which of them is the odd one out.
27:45You'll both select answers on your keypads, and the player who answers the best out of five correctly will win the round, also banking $1,000 for every correct answer.
27:56You ready?
27:57Ready.
27:58Here is your first question.
28:00Which of these figures did not perform at President Biden's 2021 inauguration?
28:08Amanda Gorman, Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez, or Patti LaBelle?
28:12You've both selected your answers.
28:21Boomer, you familiar with a lot of U.S. politics? How do you feel about this question?
28:24I love MSNBC.
28:26So, yes, I'm fairly familiar right up until recently.
28:30I was paying attention, then I ignore it now.
28:34Okay.
28:35Gen X, how do you feel?
28:37Not quite sure. Don't have it really locked down.
28:40A little nervous.
28:41Boomer, you selected Patti LaBelle.
28:46However, Gen X, you selected Amanda Gorman.
28:51Oh, see, I didn't know who she was.
28:54Both of you are a little unsure.
28:58One of you is correct.
29:00The correct answer is Patti LaBelle.
29:06Points for Boomer.
29:08Here's your second question.
29:09Which of these actors was not born to famous parents?
29:14Charlie Hall, Elizabeth Olsen, Scott Kahn, or Mariska Hargitay?
29:20You've both selected your answers.
29:26Aye.
29:28The amazing thing is that you both selected Elizabeth Olsen.
29:34Right or wrong?
29:37Right or wrong, you're together.
29:39Like a bunch of cutie pies.
29:41That's us.
29:42The correct answer is going to be revealed after the break.
29:51Don't go anywhere.
29:57Busy doom scrolling?
29:58Well, follow us on TikTok and Instagram at Battle of the Generations.
30:01See you there.
30:02Welcome back to Battle of the Generations.

30:27will be moving on to the final round.
30:29And it's buh-bye for the other contestant.
30:32Now, before the break, Gen X and Boomer,
30:36you both said you believe the answer to this question is Elizabeth Olsen.
30:42The correct answer is...
30:45Elizabeth Olsen.
30:48Well done.
30:49Well done.
30:51All right, the score is 2-1.
30:54Here is your next question.

31:20I heard a lot of sighs.
31:22I'm sensing a lot of tension.
31:25Yeah.
31:26Boomer,
31:26how do you feel about Olympics?
31:28Well, as you know,
31:29I squeezed by on the last one with a good guess,
31:31and I'm fortunately,
31:32other than one of them,
31:34I really don't know the other three,
31:36so I'm taking a guess.
31:38Gen X,
31:39you watch a lot of Olympics?
31:40I do.
31:42Not enough to know what the answer is to this, though.
31:44Okay.
31:45You're trying to tie things up, Gen X.
31:48Boomer,
31:48you selected Shawn Johnson.
31:50Yes.
31:50Which is different
31:52from our Gen Xer
31:54who selected
31:55Misty May Trainer.
31:57The correct answer is
32:00Misty May Trainer,
32:07which means point
32:08for Mark Gen X.

32:44It's a beautiful moment.
32:48Because you both said
32:49the right answer
32:50is Elon Musk.
32:52Oh, my God.
32:54The correct answer is
32:56Hillary Clinton.
32:59I thought...
32:59You are both incorrect.
33:01I'm sweating
33:02in my sweater vest.
33:03I'll tell you why.
33:04Here we are.

33:09It all comes down
33:10to this.

33:34You've both selected
33:35your answers.
33:37Ooh, I'm worried

33:38I'll be honest.
33:40Okay, well, as you know,
33:41you are both tied
33:43with two points each.
33:46Mark,

33:53you selected
33:54Ellen DeGeneres.
33:57The correct answer
33:59is
34:00Sydney Sweeney.
34:03Which means
34:04you two are tied.
34:06As if this battle
34:07couldn't get any more intense.
34:08Ooh,
34:09we are headed into
34:10the knockout zone.
34:15Here's what's going to happen.
34:16We will now continue playing
34:17until one of you
34:19is able to take the lead.
34:20So the only way
34:22for a contestant to win
34:23this round
34:24is if they answer
34:25a question correctly
34:26and their opponent

34:56frankly,
34:57who one of them is.
34:58So I'm taking a guess.
35:00Okay.
35:01I'm taking a guess.
35:02Mark.
35:03Mark knows them all.
35:05I know them all.
35:05I know that two of them
35:09were on Saturday Night Live,
35:10and I know that somebody else
35:12is also from a sketch show,
35:14and I do know the other one,
35:15and I don't think that they were
35:16on a sketch comedy show.
35:17Oh, okay.
35:20Well, Mark,
35:22you selected Michaela Cole.
35:25Tova,
35:26you selected Jordan Peele.
35:29The correct answer is
35:32Michaela Cole,
35:36which means,

35:39Good job.

35:40Big round of applause
35:41for our Boomer.
35:43Thank you so much
35:44for being here.
35:47Gen X,

35:54Over the past four rounds,
35:55our competitors have deposited
35:57a grand total of
35:58$14,000 to the vault.
36:03All right,

36:17Welcome back
36:23to the battle, everyone.
36:25Mark,
36:26how do you feel?
36:27Ready as I'll ever be.
36:28You could win $25,000.
36:30That's a lot of money.
36:31What would you do
36:31with that money?
36:32My husband and I
36:33have a 10-year wedding anniversary
36:34coming up next year
36:35and we've planned
36:36to go to Italy,
36:36so $25,000
36:37would bankroll
36:38the whole thing.
36:39Where in Italy?
36:39Do you know?
36:40Uh, everywhere.
36:42$25,000,
36:43we'll buy Italy.
36:44Okay.
36:46It's time to face
36:47your final opponent,
36:48Gen X.
36:49Welcome to the vault.
36:53There's currently $14,000 banked
36:57and it could be all yours.
36:58Locked inside the vault
36:59are four time capsules,
37:01one from every generation,
37:02and each one holds
37:04three questions.
37:05To secure that cash,
37:06all you have to do
37:07is correctly answer
37:08all three questions
37:10from one single generation
37:11in two minutes or less.
37:13But, Mark,
37:14it's not as easy
37:14as it sounds.
37:15When I say the word,
37:16the vault's randomizer
37:17will activate,
37:18highlighting questions
37:19across all four generations.
37:21You can pause the randomizer
37:23whenever you want
37:24by pressing your button
37:25and based on where it lands,
37:27I'll reveal that question
37:28to you.
37:28Make sense?
37:29Makes sense.
37:30Now, if you get a question wrong
37:31at any point,
37:32all of the questions
37:33in that capsule
37:34will permanently lock
37:35and that generation
37:36will no longer be in play.
37:38An important,
37:39passes count as incorrect answers.
37:42Mark, are you ready?
37:44I'm ready.

40:44to cash in?
40:46$25,000

40:48and as much
40:49as that would pay
40:50for a five-star
40:52vacation,
40:53$14,000
40:54would pay
40:55for a four-and-a-half

40:59said it on TV
41:00that I have to

41:01so I can't go home
41:02empty-handed.

41:06with the $14,000.

41:14This is great.
41:15You did amazing.
41:15You should be very
41:16proud of yourself
41:17just for fun.
41:18Should we see
41:20what the question
41:21was going to be?
41:21Let's do it.
41:22Why don't we do that?
41:23Do we have to?
41:26What 1982 Disney movie
41:29stars Jeff Bridges
41:31as a game developer
41:32transported into
41:33a computer mainframe?
41:35Now, Mark,
41:36what would your answer
41:38have been?
41:40Now I'm kicking myself.
41:42I know this set
41:43actually looks
41:43very familiar
41:44to what it looks
41:45like in the movie
41:45and I went
41:46on the ride
41:46at Disneyland.
41:47It's Tron.
41:49You would have
41:49said Tron.
41:50I would have
41:50said Tron.
41:51And you would
41:52have been correct,
41:53Mark.
41:54You would have
41:55been correct,
41:55but listen,
41:56you battled
41:57your way to the top,
41:58represented your
41:59generation like a boss,
42:01and you're going
42:02home with $14,000.
42:04Any parting wisdom
42:05you'd like to leave
42:05us with?
42:06I might be a Gen X,
42:08but today I'm going
42:08home with the win.
42:09That's what's up.
42:10Going home with that W.
42:12That's it for today.
42:13Remember,
42:13you can't pick your age,
42:15but you can pick
42:16your battles.
42:17See you next time
42:17on Battle of the Generations.
42:19Mark,
42:20way to go, buddy.
42:21Way to go.
42:23Where is he?
42:25It's connected
42:26to what happened
42:26to Dad the night he died.
42:27Nothing prepared him
42:28for this.
42:30For everyone's sake,
42:31leave it be.
42:31You threw my dad
42:32off that cliff?
