00:00The stage is set. These four strangers have one common enemy, the chaser.
00:06Now they've only just met, but they'll have to combine their skills to survive.
00:09Will that be enough, or will they need the spark of firepower to ignite their game?
00:14Let's find out. The chase is on.
00:25Hello everybody, welcome to The Chase Australia.
00:27So who are these four confident contestants taking on tonight's chaser?
00:32Let's meet them.
00:33Hey, I'm Katz. I dance tango, and I'm not afraid to step on a few toes.
00:39Hi, I'm Alana. I have a passion for plants that I once spent $450 on a single leaf.
00:46G'day, I'm Jed. I run Christmas Trivia for my family, and I'm here to get some pointers from Larry.
00:51Hi, I'm Steven. I play piano and guitar, but tonight I'm playing to win.
00:57OK, so my team's all set, but there's one person they need to outrun, the chaser.
01:01Now, if they get caught, the money is gone, they're gone, but if they make it through, they could share
01:06in a huge cash prize.
01:08Now, everyone must face the chaser, and tonight Kaz is first up.
01:15Hiya, Kaz.
01:16Hey, you love your tango dancing.
01:18I do, I do indeed.
01:19When did you start that?
01:20Oh, a few years ago. I actually started just to get through a relationship breakup.
01:24So it kind of helped me get back on my feet by being a fallen woman, because that's what tango
01:30is all about, actually.
01:32Nice. I love that.
01:33Now, if you win some money, Kaz, what would you like to do with that?
01:36Egypt.
01:37What's going on in Egypt for you?
01:39Lots of conspiracy theories for a start.

04:35Fantastic.
04:36Between you and me, I have this radical theory that Larry has the answers to all our questions
04:41given to him before the show begins.
04:44Don't tell anyone.
04:46So, what he's saying is that maybe I'm really, really smart.

10:27Well done.
10:27Okay.
10:28Alana is up next here on the chase.
10:29Don't go away.
10:44Welcome back.
10:44Look how relaxed Kaz is right now.
10:46Back there standing by for a final chase.
10:48$10,000 in the bank.
10:49We're up and running.
10:50Alana, hi.
10:51Hi.
10:52How much have you paid for a leaf?
10:55An embarrassing amount.
10:57$450 for one leaf.
10:58Like, what was it?
10:59What sort of leaf is that?
11:00It was a Monstera Adinstoniae variegated.
11:04It was a long time ago when they were really high in the plant market.
11:08Yeah.
11:08And what did you do with that leaf?
11:09I actually killed that one.
11:10Shame.
11:11Just because you were angry it cost so much?
11:15It's a learning curve.
11:16Yeah, right.
11:17Now, you have this dream about going around Australia in a motorhome, yeah?
11:21I do.
11:22It'd be my lifelong dream to rip the kids out of school and take a year off work and get
11:26in a motorhome and see this beautiful country of ours.
11:28I'm going to share something special with you.
11:30It's been your lifelong dream.
11:31It's also your kid's lifelong dream to be ripped out of school.
11:33I know.
11:33Yeah, yeah, yeah.
11:34All right.
11:35Now, what would you like to do with some money, Alana, if you win?
11:37Going around Australia would be amazing, but I also had a breakdown with my car today,
11:41so maybe that's it.
11:43It's a sign.
11:44All right.
11:44One minute on the clock.
11:45$2,000 for every correct answer.
11:47Alana, good to go?
11:48Yeah, let's go.

12:59Still better than what I thought I was going to do.
13:01Well, it'll fix the car, right?
13:03That's it.
13:03Easiest way to fix it.
13:03Car repair's done.
13:04All right, here comes the professor now.
13:12Hello, Alana.
13:13Hi.

13:28Five steps from home.
13:29$4,000.

13:33Low offer, please.
13:35$500.
13:36Top offer.
13:37$15,000.
13:39Okay.
13:40There's more to you than that $4,000.
13:42We know that.
13:42What would you like to do?
13:44I mean, $500 is like a nice new plan.
13:47Sure.
13:48And $15,000 is like a really good plan.
13:52You could buy a leaf for $500.
13:55But I think I might stick it safe and stay with the four, because that'll fix the car.
14:00Yeah, let's go for that.
14:01Lose the $500, lose the $15,000.
14:03And for $4,000, the chase is on.

14:45That would have been cool.
14:46Chase locked in.
14:50Burberry.

14:59As well as Antarctic explorers.
15:01Right.
15:02Who wanted to look cool.

16:24ever had it on English muffins.
16:25Okay.
16:26So you're locked in.
16:27A. English muffin.

16:48Okay.
16:52I love it when the chase is value-add to the question.

17:23Going with Kevin Rudd.
17:24Yeah.
17:25Correct answer here is?
17:31John Howard.
17:35Now, if he's locked in John Howard, we've got to say goodbye.
17:38Oh, no.
17:39He hasn't, surely.
17:41Surely.
17:42Surely.
17:43Chaser has locked in.
17:49He's got us with that one.
17:50I'm sorry, Alana.
17:51Lovely to meet you.
17:52Lovely to meet you.
17:52Thank you so much for coming in.
17:53No worries.
17:54Thank you very much.
17:55That was a bit too quick for us.
17:56It was.
17:57Yeah, his dad ran a local petrol station, if that isn't value-adding for you.
18:02No, that's actually, that's quite a good one.
18:04All right.
18:04Jed is up next here on The Chase.
18:06Don't go away.
18:20Welcome back to The Chase.
18:22A shame about Alana leaving us then.
18:24Hiya, Jed.
18:25Hi, Larry.
18:26Now, you have a love of trivia, right?
18:28Yes, I host my family Christmas trivia each year.
18:30It's a really good tradition.
18:32I'm pretty slack, though.
18:33I'm not as good as you.
18:34Well, let's see how this works out.
18:36You might be standing here by the end of the show.
18:38Do you get the questions yourself off the internet?
18:41Yeah, I steal them off you sometimes through the year.
18:43It takes a whole year to write 40 questions, so I'm a pretty good host.
