00:02Welcome to the 1% Club, where logic beats knowledge, and only 1% of the population can answer the
00:09final question.
00:13$100,000 is up for grabs, and trying to win it all are these 100 contestants.
00:21I'm Joel McHale, and it's time to play the 1% Club.
00:30I feel the need, the need to reward greed.
00:34Let's start flinging wads of cash at people, shall we?
00:39Nine out of every ten Americans we pulled answered this question correctly.
00:43The other person swatted the clipboard away and fled on foot.
00:48Here is your 90% question.
00:53A group of your friends are standing outside your bedroom window.
00:57The blinds are half-closed, blocking your view.
00:59If they were opened, what order would you see your friends standing in?
01:04Your time starts now.
01:12And more importantly, how much of what I was doing did you see?
01:15Because it's not what it looks like, you guys.
01:30That is time. Stop answering. It's illegal. You will be arrested.
01:37Now let's see how many of you got the question right, and how many of you are out of the
01:42game.
01:55We lost three of you on that question, which means we've got 97 of you left.
02:01I don't want to rub it in. We will do that in a second.
02:04Before, we're going to see the answer though, all right?
02:06The answer is B.
02:08There's no tricks on this one. It's just what it looks like just through the blinds.
02:13So much easier when there's no blinds, huh?
02:16All right, let's talk to somebody who got it right. Roxanne.
02:19I'm in shock.
02:22Wait. You're shocked you got it right?
02:24Yes. I for sure thought I was going to be out.
02:26Why did you think that?
02:27I think my lashes are like too thick or something. I was like...
02:30Oh, because you have blinds here and then your lashes are so thick that they're another set of blinds?
02:36Yes. Too many lashes.
02:37Did you just guess then?
02:39Honestly, kind of.
02:40Okay. Well, thank you for your honesty.
02:41It's going to be a long game.
02:42Roxanne, what do you do for work?
02:44I am the booby queen.
02:52All right, booby queen. What does that mean?
02:55I own a braless alternative company.
02:58It's braless.
02:59Yeah, we sell nipple covers.
03:01Okay.
03:02Are you wearing them now?
03:03I am.
03:05Do I need to move my hair?
03:06This is going to get weird.
03:10I'm wearing nipple covers too.
03:13They're very painful.
03:15Then they're not mine.
03:17All right, to start the game, everyone has been given a $1,000 stake.
03:20If you get a question wrong, you're out of the game.
03:22And your $1,000 goes into the prize pot.
03:26So let's see that prize pot.
03:28Oh, $3,000.
03:31But let's not stop there.
03:33I have some more hearts to break and more cash to hoard.
03:3780% of Americans pulled to answer this next question right.
03:40It is our 80% question.
03:43Here we go.
03:45Which of the images below features the man with his correct left and right hand?
03:50Your time starts now.
03:58Oh, I never knew our question writers had their own gang signs.
04:01What?
04:16That is time.
04:18Blue lights illuminate those who have just messed up.
04:36We just lost eight of you on that question.
04:40Which means we've got 89 of you left.
04:43Here's the answer, everybody.
04:45C. Choice A has two right hands and B has two left hands.
04:51Woo!
04:52Woo!
04:55Woo!
04:55All right, let's see the prize pot.
04:59$11,000.
05:02All right, guys.
05:03Wipe the perspiration from that tablet.
05:05Three out of every ten Americans pulled got this next one wrong.
05:09And that was without me staring at them and making fun of their shirts.
05:12Ready?
05:13This is our 70% question.
05:18If you replaced all the vowels in Kardashian with different vowels,
05:22which of these could be the new spelling of that last name?
05:25Your time starts now.
05:33Those Kardashians just love replacing parts of themselves with new parts.
05:51That is your time.
05:53And during that time, the Kardashians made a half a billion dollars.
05:59Blue light, do your thing.
06:17What just happened?
06:19What's going on?
06:21We just lost 17 of you on that question.
06:26That is a lot.
06:27A lot of dummies.
06:30So we have 72 of you left.
06:32Here's the answer, everybody.
06:34C. Kardashian.
06:37In choice A, the third A was deleted but not replaced.
06:41And the I is still there.
06:44In choice B, the third A was replaced with a consonant.
06:48All right, let's talk to somebody who got it wrong, Rebecca Seed.
06:51Yeah.
06:52Oh, hey, Rebecca.
06:53What would you have done with the money?
06:55But I don't know if y'all have ever heard of the Fifty Shades of Grey book.
06:59So in my new house, I want to have my own little red room.
07:02You know what I'm saying?
07:03I see.
07:04What goes in a room like that?
07:07You know, little toys.
07:10Little paddles maybe.
07:12Oh, so you play like pickleball?
07:14Well, Rebecca, thank you for being here.
07:17And unfortunately, we have to say goodbye to and uncover the nipple.
07:24Roxanne, what did you answer?
07:26I did A.
07:27What was your logic there?
07:28I missed the H.
07:30The H before the I.
07:31I didn't even think about that letter.
07:33Wait, you missed the H?
07:37Oh, wait, the I before the A.
07:39Do you see where?
07:39This is what happened.
07:41Uh-huh, uh-huh.
07:43It's making sense, right?
07:44It is not.
07:46All right, let's check the prize pot, shall we?
07:49Gone from $11,000 to $28,000.
07:53We can fit more dough in there because I believe in you guys
07:57and your likelihood of answering incorrectly.
08:00Our next question left four out of every ten Americans we polled
08:04thoroughly stumped.
08:05Here is your 60% question.
08:10Everyone in the hot dog eating contest started with ten hot dogs.
08:13Who's eaten the most?
08:15Your time starts now.
08:25Who's eaten the most?
08:25Be prepared.
08:26Our next question involves photos from inside the hot dog eating contest port-a-potty.
08:41That is time.
08:43Put your hot dogs down.
08:45Blue light, let's see who got it wrong.
08:59We just lost four of you on that question, which means we have 68 of you left.
09:05Show us the answer.
09:07C, William.
09:08If you just look at the plates, Randy would be ahead, but he's holding two hot dogs for a total
09:13of seven.
09:14With only six left, William has eaten the most.
09:18William looks like he's really enjoying it.
09:21Here's somebody who did not enjoy that hot dog eating contest, Tina.
09:25Hi, Joel.
09:26So, what did you put?
09:28I put C because I didn't look at Randy's hands.
09:32C is the correct answer.
09:34I mean, no, I put B. I'm sorry.
09:36Wow.
09:37You even got what answer you put wrong.
09:41Yeesh.
09:42All right.
09:43Let's see how many hot dogs the prize pot ate.
09:45All right.
09:47$32,000.
09:48That's a lot of hot dogs.
09:50All right.
09:51Who will go home happy?
09:52And who will just go home?
09:54And what terrible things will they all say about me?
09:56We'll find out when the 1% Club returns right here on Fox.
10:10Welcome back to the 1% Club.
10:13100 contestants tried to avoid elimination, and I tried desperately to learn four of their names.
10:1968 remain, and they're hungrily eyeing our prize pot of $32,000 and growing.
10:25We've played through four questions so far, and on any of the next 10 questions, you can use the $1
10:30,000 we gave you to pay for a pass and move on to the next question.
10:35You can only do this once, and your $1,000 will go straight into the prize pot, so use your
10:41pass wisely.
10:42Half of the people we polled got this next question right.
10:46The other half begged me not to mention their failure on national television.
10:50Here is your 50% question.
10:54If I-Y-K-Y-K means, if you know, you know, which of these stands for, if you kayak,
11:02you know your kayak?
11:03Your time starts now.
11:13And let's all pray, if you kayak, you know your kayak doesn't become the next 6'7".
11:19I still don't know what that means. I don't even know what it means.
11:22I'm too old.
11:29Time, everybody. Let's see who answered correctly and who did not on national television.
11:48Three, which means we've got 65 of you left and two of you used your passes.
11:54You guys want to see the answer?
11:56Here we go.
11:57C-I-Y-K-Y-K-Y-K.
12:00If you kayak, you know your kayak.
12:04Let's talk to Jared.
12:05Hello.
12:06Jared, how did you figure it out?
12:09Uh, if you know, you know.
12:13You just gotta count letters.
12:15What do you like to do for fun?
12:16I like to shock people with my secret talent.
12:20All right, let's move on to somebody else.
12:23Uh, Jared, what's your secret talent?
12:25I can lactate.
12:28How long have you been able to lactate?
12:30Since high school.
12:31I played soccer.
12:33Those soccer guys, they can get a little crazy.
12:34So, a good nipple twister, uh...
12:37Oh.
12:38Surprised them.
12:38So, it worked like one of those, uh, trick flowers?
12:41You know, like, uh...
12:44Yeah.
12:45Did some of the guys use it for hydration during the game?
12:49Oh, no.
12:49Absolutely.
12:57Well, I think we have a new booby queen, everybody.
13:02It's booby king Jared.
13:05Sorry, Roxanne.
13:07Let's see how much milk is in the prize pod.
13:10$37,000.
13:13And it's at this point in the show, I wish I could play for that money.
13:16It'd be so easy.
13:17I have all the answers already.
13:19Like answers to this.
13:20Our 45% question.
13:25Based on these images, what word should replace the question mark?
13:29Your time starts now.
13:37Time permitting, please also rank these images by style and odor.
13:56That is time.
13:58Blue light, show us who got it wrong.
14:15We lost three of you on that question, which means we have 62 of you left and 21 of you
14:21used your pass.
14:2221 passes, that is a lot.
14:25Let's see what the answer is.
14:27A, repaid.
14:28Mind is denim spelled backwards.
14:31Reward is drawer spelled backwards.
14:33So the answer is repaid, which is diaper backwards.
14:37Let's talk to somebody who just filled their diaper.
14:42Nicole.
14:43Present.
14:44What do you do for fun, Nicole?
14:46Clearly not answering the 1% question.
14:48Okay, yep.
14:49What would you have done with the money?
14:50So I have twin boys and I have a four-year-old as well.
14:54And so I either would maybe have another baby or probably pay for my husband's vasectomy.
14:59Because I can't risk twins again.
15:01It's like either or, it just depends on the day.
15:04You know, if the kids are really good, let's take a shot at it.
15:07If they're really bad, you know what?
15:08Snip, snip.
15:08Oh.
15:09Wow.
15:10The stakes are very high at home.
15:12Yeah.
15:12Well, thanks for being on the show.
15:14Thanks.
15:14All right.
15:15Let's talk to somebody that used their past.
15:17Kim?
15:18Kim, hi.
15:19Hi.
15:20What would you do with the money?
15:21So I have four daughters.
15:24They're indoor chickens, so I would love to build like an oasis for them in my backyard.
15:29Wait.
15:31You have four chickens.
15:33Yeah.
15:33Who are chickens.
15:35Yes.
15:35Daughters who are chickens.
15:37Uh, how does the place smell?
15:40See, that's why I need a backyard.
15:43They're your daughters, so do you dress them up at all?
15:45I do.
15:49I put them in diapers.
15:53Is putting them in diapers an outfit or a precaution?
15:57I mean, it looks cute, so I consider it an outfit.
15:59Okay.
16:00So then, you know, come summer, what do you do?
16:02Are you gonna slow roast them or fry them?
16:09You're talking about my daughters.
16:11Don't worry.
16:12No, I would, um, smoke them.
16:15Okay.
16:17Let's see how big our prize pot is.
16:21$61,000.
16:24You guys having a good time?
16:26I don't know how.
16:28This game is incredibly stressful.
16:30You guys are weird.
16:31Let's continue this death march of fun and cash prizes with a question only 40% of Americans got right.
16:38Here is the 40% question.
16:43You're going to an ugly Christmas sweater party with weirdly specific rules.
16:48You can't wear anything depicting a Christmas tree, an ornament, nor a vegetable.
16:52Which sweater can you wear?
16:54Your time starts now.
17:02I'm dreaming of an obsessive compulsive Christmas.
17:20That is time.
17:22Let's see who answered correctly and who did not.
17:27Here we go.
17:39Two.
17:40We lost two of you on that question, which means we have 60 of you left and eight of you
17:47used your pass.
17:49All right.
17:50Let's see the answer.
17:51Five, two, three, and four have Christmas trees.
17:54One and two have ornaments.
17:56And on sweater six, the snowman's nose is a carrot, which is a vegetable that leaves only sweater five.
18:03Let's talk to somebody who got it right.
18:05Nefertiri.
18:06Hey, Joel.
18:07You got it right.
18:07I did.
18:08You seem very cool and confident.
18:10No, my heart is pumping out of my chest right now.
18:12Okay.
18:12So not really.
18:13What would you do with the money if you won?
18:15I have breastfed four kids for five years.
18:19So I would get these babies lifted and shifted and then I would be the booby queen.
18:24Oh.
18:26You're going to get a $100,000 boob job possibly?
18:30And a little lipo too.
18:31All that.
18:32All right.
18:33What do you do for fun?
18:34I just make up cool songs with my kids or for my kids.
18:38We goof around.
18:39We'd love to hear one.
18:40I go, butts got to be washed.
18:43Butts got to be washed.
18:45Butts got to be washed.
18:47Butts got to be washed.
18:50All right.
18:51Let's check that prize pot, everybody.
18:54$69,000.
18:56Remember, the pot only grows thanks to the hard work of your fellow contestants messing up.
19:02So let's do more of that with our 35% question.
19:08Up is down, down is up, right is left, and left is right.
19:13With that in mind, which set of instructions guide you from the red dot to the center of this maze?
19:19Your time starts now.
19:26And why is this the worst selling video game of all time?
19:45Time, everybody.
19:47All right.
19:47Let's see who got that right.
19:48But right is wrong.
19:50So let's see who got it right.
19:52But I mean wrong.
19:53Blue light?
20:07Four.
20:08We just lost four of you on that question.
20:11Which means we have 56 of you left and three of you used your pass.
20:17Let's see what the answer is.
20:20B. With the directions inverted, the correct path is left, up, right, down, left, up, right.
20:28That didn't make any sense to me either.
20:32Olivia.
20:33Hello.
20:33Oh, hi, Olivia.
20:34What do you do for work, Olivia?
20:35I'm a PhD student in a field of applied math.
20:38Did your PhD help you here?
20:41Um, no.
20:44Okay.
20:44Yeah.
20:45So you're very good at math.
20:46I'm obsessed with math, so much so that my license plate says math on it.
20:51You'd think it would be numbers.
20:52Well, that's boring.
20:55Well, you got that one right, Olivia.
20:57You're doing great.
20:58All right.
20:59Shall we see the prize pot, guys?
21:00All right.
21:03$73,000.
21:05And it's gonna keep going up from there.
21:08We've got 56 contestants still in the game and one host still hosting the show.
21:13Which one of them will make it to the end?
21:15Gosh, I sure hope it's me.
21:17We'll find out when The One Percent Club returns, only on Fox.
21:32Welcome back to The One Percent Club.
21:34The show started with 100 contestants, but thanks to some difficult questions and an outbreak of food poisoning, that number
21:41is down to 56.
21:43But 27 of you still have your passes, so all of you can either keep going and hope to make
21:48it to the 1% question and win up to $100,000,
21:52or you can take $1,000 guaranteed right now and leave the show.
21:58Please make your decision now.
22:07Three of you have decided to take the buyout.
22:11Alex, you decided to take the $1,000.
22:15Yeah, if you give me money, I'm gonna take it.
22:19Well, good luck to you.
22:20All right, for the non-cowards of the group...
22:25Just kidding.
22:26The rest of our contestants decided to stay, leaving us 53 contestants still in the game, vying for up to
22:33$97,000.
22:34And remember, if you still have your $1,000, you can use it to pay for a pass if you
22:39don't know the answer to a question.
22:42Let's continue, shall we?
22:44All right.
22:45Let's do it.
22:46Next up, a question that, due to the complex nature of game show structure, is our hardest one yet.
22:53Only three out of every 10 Americans we pulled got this right, which means you guys really should have taken
22:59the money and run.
23:00Contestants, this is your 30% question.
23:06What seven-letter word can you spell with the letters that you can squeeze through the holes in the table?
23:12Your time starts now.
23:21And if you ate all these blocks, which word would appear first when removed in the emergency room?
23:43That's your time.
23:45Blue light shine on the relatable people who just messed up.
24:04We just lost nine of you on that question, which means we've got 44 of you left and seven of
24:10you used your pass.
24:13Here's the answer.
24:14Squeeze.
24:15The only seven-letter word you can spell with the letters on shapes that can squeeze through the openings in
24:21the table is the word squeeze.
24:24Let's talk to somebody who got it right.
24:26Michael T.
24:27Hey.
24:28Nicely done.
24:29Who's rooting for you at home?
24:30I've got a friend named Sam who was actually on last season.
24:34He was on singles night and he took home the win, but I don't think he's actually rooting for me.
24:39And my big debate with him is that I thought his night was really easy and four people won.
24:45He's not in the 1% club, he's in the 4% club.
24:47So let's ramp up the difficulty.
24:49I want to be the 1%.
24:50Hello to you.
24:51It's Sam hoping Michael loses.
24:54All right, let's check with the prize pot, which is now at $80,000.
25:01That's a lot of money.
25:02If you want to take that cash home, you'll have to get past the 25% question.
25:10Each backyard below is surrounded by colorful fences.
25:13If these images show the point of view from your three fence walls, which backyard must be yours?
25:20Your time starts now.
25:29If you're wondering why you need so much privacy, just look at how your maniac neighbors paint their fences.
25:51Time, everybody.
25:52Let's see who got it right and who did not get it right.
25:57Blue light, do your thing.
26:1416 of you.
26:16What?
26:17We just lost 16 of you on that question, which means we've got 28 of you left.
26:22And 14 of you used your pass.
26:26I used mine.
26:27That was a bloodbath.
26:28All right.
26:28You guys want to see that answer?
26:30Yeah.
26:32Five.
26:32While houses two and five have the same three fence colors, when you look through the hole in the yellow
26:38fence at house two, you will see a red fence, not a purple one.
26:43Duh.
26:46Let's talk to somebody you got it right.
26:47Amy.
26:48Where is Amy?
26:51Amy, how long did that take you to figure out?
26:53So I originally put four, and then I was going back to check, and then I was like, oh my
26:58gosh, it's five.
26:59So right at the last second, I changed it.
27:00Oh, all right.
27:01Yeah.
27:02What do you do with your free time?
27:03I have a lot of old man hobbies.
27:06So I'm in a harmonica club.
27:09I have a native pollinator garden at home.
27:12And I also do stained glass.
27:15And I made you a little something.
27:17Oh.
27:18Aww.
27:20It's so good.
27:21Wow.
27:22I thought you might like it.
27:25Okay.
27:27I wanted something from the native pollinator garden, but this is great.
27:32Wow, this is really nice.
27:33Thanks.
27:34Guys, this is nice.
27:35Thanks, Amy.
27:36Yeah, you're welcome.
27:37I could have done with some breast milk and nipple covers, guys.
27:42Let's talk to somebody else who got it right, Kennedy.
27:45Oh, hey, Kennedy.
27:45Hey.
27:46Was this one hard?
27:47This was probably the first one I hesitated on.
27:49Hey, she's still in the game, blue light people.
27:52Ooh.
27:54Kennedy's hesitating.
27:56Oh, that's right.
27:56I went out on the first question.
27:59Do you have any gifts for me?
28:01I mean, I would say my presents is a gift, no?
28:04Oh, wow.
28:05All right.
28:05Okay.
28:06Well played.
28:07I love a good denim jacket.
28:10I'll sacrifice it for you, Joel.
28:12All right, great.
28:13You won.
28:14Let's see what that last question did to the prize pot, shall we?
28:19$94,000.
28:22When we come back, our remaining contestants will see if they can go the distance and win that prize pot
28:28when the 1% Club returns.
28:29Whoo!
28:31Whoo!
28:32Whoo!
28:36Whoo!
28:38Whoo!
28:39Whoo!
28:40Whoo!
28:40Whoo!
28:40Whoo!
28:40We're back, and it's been nearly three minutes since we checked in on the contents of the prize pot.
28:45Oh, good.
28:46It still has $94,000.
28:50And our 28 remaining players want all of it.
28:54If you still have your $1,000 left, you can pay for a pass, and you've got four questions left
28:59to use it.
29:00Questions are getting harder, and the gunk they style my hair with is getting softer, which means we're hitting the
29:06home stretch.
29:06Here is your 20% question.
29:12Which one word in this picture can rhyme with the most other words in the picture?
29:17Your time starts now.
29:24And which one has the most sexual chemistry with the other words?
29:43Time, everybody!
29:44Let's see who answered correctly and who screwed it up this late in the game.
29:49Blue light?
29:49All right.
30:04Nine!
30:05We lost nine of you on that question, which means we've got 19 of you left, and one of you
30:12used your pass.
30:13The answer is reed.
30:15The word reed can be pronounced as red or reed so it can rhyme with all of the other words.
30:22Oh, my God!
30:23Yes.
30:24As one in person said, oh, my God.
30:29Let's talk to somebody who got it right.
30:31Karina.
30:32Karina?
30:32Hi!
30:35Was this easy for you?
30:38I'm a teacher, so words are my thing.
30:40You're a teacher?
30:41I am an art teacher at elementary school, and I've been nominated six times for Teacher of the Year.
30:45Wow.
30:48You've been nominated six times.
30:50Yeah, I'm good at my job.
30:52Why do you think you haven't won it?
30:53You know, my awesomeness is intimidating, so I think some people don't want to see me shine so bright.
30:58Well played. Well played, Karina.
31:00I'm nominating you for contestant of that last question.
31:05It's a whole award.
31:06Here we go.
31:07The prize pot has ballooned to a massive $95,000.
31:12I blame myself for dipping all that money in ranch dressing.
31:16It's so tasty.
31:18All right, players, out of the 100 Americans we polled, only 15 of them answered this correctly.
31:24It's true.
31:25I was there to see it, and it was awesome.
31:28Here is your 15% question.
31:33Which two tiles must be turned 90 degrees to connect all the blue pipes so that there are only two
31:39ends?
31:40Your time starts now.
31:48And guys, could you please pick up the pace on connecting these pipes?
31:51I've been holding it for an hour now.
32:06Time, everybody.
32:08Put the tablets down.
32:10Stop tapping it incessantly.
32:12Let's see who answered correctly and who did not.
32:16Blue light, do it.
32:31We just lost eight of you on that question, which means we have 11 of you left.
32:37And the two of you who still had a pass used it on this question.
32:40Let's see the answer, shall we?
32:42B and C. You turn B counterclockwise and C clockwise, and then everything is connected.
32:48Let's check in with the prize pot, which is now at $97,000.
32:55Our pool of 100 contestants has been narrowed down to just 11.
33:00Only the best of the best have made it this far.
33:03No offense to all the losers still sitting here.
33:05When we return, we'll see if anyone can make it into the 1% Club and win up to $100
33:11,000.
33:22Welcome back to the 1% Club.
33:24We're nearing the end of our game, and the only thing thicker than the tension is the base coat layer
33:30of my spray tan.
33:31Let's jump back into the action before I sweat through all of it.
33:35The contestants that make it furthest in the game will win up to $10,000.
33:39But if they're feeling brave, they can risk their share of the $10,000 by taking on the 1%
33:45question for a chance to win everything in the prize pot, which is currently at $97,000.
33:56But if anyone's gonna win it, they need to survive our last three questions.
34:00The only way this could be more challenging is if you had to do it while some wise-ass hoes
34:05crack jokes.
34:06All right, here we go.
34:08One out of every ten Americans we polled got this right.
34:11Here is your 10% question.
34:16Which of these historic years doesn't belong with the others?
34:20Your time starts now.
34:30One of these is Ken Jeong's birth year.
34:34I'm kidding, he's an ageless wonder, like Dracula.
34:47Okay, that is your time.
34:49Let's see who's still in the game.
34:51Blue light, do it.
35:02Two.
35:03We lost two of you on that question, which means we've got nine of you left.
35:08And the answer is 1771.
35:11The other three all read the same if you flip them upside down.
35:16Mikey B.
35:17Hey, how's it going, Joel?
35:18Nice.
35:20Joel M.
35:21Mikey, thanks for dressing like a young professor from 1988.
35:25What do you do for fun, Mikey?
35:27I just kind of make my own card games.
35:29What's the last card game you made up?
35:31It was called In the Nick of Time.
35:33And basically, like, in my house, there would be like a stack of dishes,
35:37or like an unmade bed, and I'd like invite all my friends,
35:40and I'd be like, okay, like whoever does all the dishes in the next 60 seconds
35:44wins the card and wins the point.
35:45So they're all running and doing dishes as fast as they can.
35:48This doesn't...
35:51This, uh...
35:51They get really into it.
35:53This is a card game?
35:54Anyone is welcome to come to my house and play,
35:57and there's a variety of options.
35:59And this is an opportunity to be a housekeeper for free for Mikey.
36:03Okay, Mikey, you are in the game.
36:05Let's talk to another person that got it right.
36:07Alan.
36:07That's he.
36:08Alan, hey.
36:10Was this question easy for you?
36:12This one was easy, yeah.
36:14All right.
36:15Great to talk to you.
36:16Great.
36:17All right, Alan.
36:18Well, let's take a look at the prize pot, shall we?
36:20It continues to be $97,000.
36:23Because the players who got it wrong already used their pass.
36:27And you are all one question away from having a chance to take it all home.
36:31Here's your 5% question.
36:35If you wrote out January 1st as 1-1, January 2nd as 1-2, and so on,
36:41how many times would you write the number 3 while writing out all the days in March?
36:46Your time starts now.
37:12That is time.
37:15You can feel the tension in the air.
37:18Yes.
37:19All right, blue light.
37:20Let's do it.
37:24We had nine.
37:35Four.
37:36We just lost four of you on that question, which means we've got five of you left.
37:42All right, let's see the answer.
37:4536.
37:46Each of the 31 days in March has a three for the month.
37:50Additionally, March 3rd, 13th, 23rd, 30, and 31st all have a three in the day.
37:5731 plus five equals 36.
38:00All right, we know what the prize pot is.
38:02It's so impressive.
38:03Let's look again.
38:05$97,000.
38:07Congratulations, Olivia, Kennedy, Michael, Karina, and Alan.
38:11You have made it to our final question, which means you've now earned up to $10,000,
38:17and you've got a chance to take on the 1% question.
38:20Let's give a hand to these guys.
38:24When we return, all that hard work you put into sitting on your butt and shouting at the screen will
38:30finally pay off
38:31as we find out if any of our players will join the 1% Club right after this.
38:48From 100 contestants down to you five, you're about to take on the final question of the game.
38:54Get it right, and you will win up to $97,000 and become official members of the 1% Club.
39:01And that does include one burial plot inside the 1% mausoleum.
39:06All right.
39:07But first, a classic game show impossible choice.
39:11Side salad or rice pilaf.
39:13Sorry.
39:14Sorry, I was looking at our crew dinner later on.
39:17No, your impossible choice, if anyone would like to leave the game right now, you can get $10,000.
39:24But there's a catch.
39:26If anyone else up here also decides to leave,
39:29you will be splitting that $10,000 with them.
39:32Please ponder this difficult choice for the next few seconds.
39:36Go.
39:48They're all going to play.
39:53Alan, Olivia, Michael, Karina, and Kennedy, you are going to take on the 1% question.
40:00You were willing to forego guaranteed cash for a chance at the $97,000 in the prize club. Look at
40:08that.
40:10All right.
40:11All right.
40:12Here we go.
40:13Here is your 1% question.
40:19There is a secret code with the info you need to solve this question.
40:24What should fill in the blank to this code?
40:26Your time starts now.
40:59Time, everybody.
41:00That is time on your 1% question.
41:03Right now your answers are locked in and you can't change them, so we might as well ask you what
41:09you put.
41:10Kennedy, let's start with you.
41:13I did not put one in, but I know the answer and I know how to solve it.
41:17So, and I was going to put it and I just didn't, so.
41:24So sorry you ran out of time, Kennedy.
41:27Think about the dummies that went out on the 90% question.
41:34Karina, you're next.
41:35What did you put?
41:35So I put G.
41:37All right.
41:38Well, let's wait and see.
41:39Olivia.
41:40I put K.
41:42Michael T, you talked a big game.
41:44What did you put?
41:45I put K.
41:46Alan, what did you put?
41:47I put K.
41:49All right.
41:52We've heard everyone's answers.
41:53Now it's time to find out if any of you are going to be joining the 1% Club tonight.
41:58Let's see the answer.
42:04For $97,000.
42:09We need a K or a G.
42:12The answer is...
42:16K.
42:20The code lists the number of times each letter appears in the question.
42:24There's exactly one K in the word blank.
42:27Ladies and gentlemen, let's hear it for our winners.
42:30Alan, Olivia, and Michael.
42:33You're walking out of here with $32,333.
42:38You are now officially in the 1% Club.
