00:00The cast of Dropout's Game Changer will be competing in challenges, testing their culinary skill.
00:06Who will be the last one standing?
00:11Who is going to lose this game?
00:13Me!
00:14Wow.
00:16Coconut.
00:17Coconut!
00:18You're a coconut crusher.
00:20Using the tools in front of you, crack your coconut and fill your cup to the line.
00:26Bye.
00:27No more, no less.
00:29No more, no less?
00:30Last one to hit the line is eliminated.
00:33Ready?
00:34We're all too close to be given tools.
00:40Absolutely free.
00:44Has anyone done this in real life before?
00:47I've watched a lot of Survivor.
00:49How do they do it on Survivor?
00:50Not with a screwdriver and a mallet.
00:55Anything? Anything?
00:57No!
00:57How is Grant already?
00:59Nice, Grant.
01:00Thank you, Oscar.
01:01How would he do that?
01:02Ah!
01:05I think I might have a dry coconut.
01:07Is this entertaining for you?
01:09This is entertaining for me.
01:10I'm done!
01:11You're done?
01:13Oh, I don't like that.
01:14Shit.
01:14Are there any more metal mallets?
01:16We don't have any down here.
01:18Metal mallets?
01:18Yeah, you can have mine.
01:19Do you want?
01:19Hey, thanks, Oscar.
01:21Excuse me, Grant.
01:22Pardon me.
01:26Oh, my God.
01:27Oh, Oscar, good.
01:28How?
01:28I feel like I've made no progress.
01:31I did it.
01:32Why isn't mine even close to open?
01:34Why?
01:34Why?
01:35Oh, no.
01:43Done.
01:44Damn.
01:44No.
01:45Oh, there we go.
01:46No!
01:47Oh, no, Lily.
01:48No!
01:49I haven't gotten a drop.
01:51There's not a drop.
01:54Keep going that way.
01:55That's what you're looking for.
01:56That's the inner shell right there.
01:57Why is everyone helping, Sam?
01:59I'm also helping you.
02:00This advice applies to everybody with a coconut.
02:02What if I refuse to listen?
02:07Oh, this is very exciting.
02:12Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
02:15oh, oh.
02:16Come on, Lily.
02:17Oh, Lily, go faster.
02:19Lily, I'm going faster.
02:19You can't.
02:20You have to hold it up to it.
02:23Oh, no, oh, no.
02:24Wow, that was so close.
02:26Wait.
02:27Wait.
02:27Oh, no, no, no, no.
02:34What about mine that's under?
02:37How about this?
02:38What about this?
02:39Oh.
02:41I was mostly trying to not cut my fingers open, and for that,
02:46I won.
02:49It's been a pleasure, and I think I'll be a better chef because of this.
02:53Do you ever hack at a coconut with a knife and realize that you're the sleepiest you've
02:58ever been in Europe?
03:01Erwan, you are a luxury shopper.
03:04A series of items from Erwan, LA's bougiest grocery store, will be presented.
03:09Write your best guess for the price of each item.
03:11The player closest to the actual price without going over earns a point.
03:15The player with the fewest points at the end of the round is eliminated.
03:19There are five rounds.
03:22Ready?
03:23Ready.
03:25Milk.
03:27Is it like a Erwan exclusive milk?
03:30It's not.
03:31I have to say, my baby drinks that milk.
03:33Lily.
03:34Tell me.
03:35Wait.
03:36Jesus.
03:37I don't like this.
03:42Sam?
03:42What the fuck?
03:4316.
03:44That's crazy.
03:46It's Erwan.
03:47I bet you that I'm over and closest.
03:50$8.49.
03:52Whoa.
03:53Oscar.
03:54Me?
03:55Oscar gets the point.
03:56What the heck?
03:57$8.49.
03:59Erwan should close.
04:00A single strawberry.
04:02It's wrapped in a bandage.
04:04It's sick.
04:09What did you say?
04:10I said 17.
04:12Those are those fancy Japanese strawberries.
04:14$17?
04:15Yes.
04:16Oh, boy.
04:17You said 52 cents.
04:19I said five bucks.
04:20I said 52 cents.
04:22Oh, you said 52 cents.
04:23That's crazy low.
04:25$19.99.
04:27Grant!
04:29Damn.
04:30That's bad luck.
04:30Vic, I will say that's bad luck.
04:32That single strawberry is $19.99.
04:35I'll tell you why they call it Erwan, because that's everybody who can't afford it.
04:38All right?
04:39Erwan can't afford that goddamn strawberry.
04:41Goddamn.
04:42Brennan Lee Mulligan, ladies and gentlemen.
04:43I'll tell you what, that's my time, folks.
04:45You have a great one.
04:46A slice of chocolate cake.
04:47It's just a slice.
04:48It's not the whole cake.
04:49So it can't be that expensive.
04:51Oscar, you're using normal people brain.
04:53But that cake looks dense.
04:55I think it's keto.
04:56I don't think it's keto.
04:57Is it just butter?
04:58Oh, no.
04:59Oh, I said 12.
05:01Everyone said double digits, huh?
05:02Okay.
05:03$11.50.
05:05Nice!
05:06Oh, okay.
05:07I was pretty far off.
05:10Seamoss gel.
05:11So expensive, I bet.
05:13Someone angrily calling their wife from Erwan being like, is it the Seamoss foam or the gel?
05:18Oh, see, I buy my Seamoss gel at Albertson's.
05:22I don't know if I steal it.
05:26$44.
05:27Whoa!
05:28Wow.
05:28Great.
05:29And I did it all by myself.
05:31What is it, though?
05:33Smoothie.
05:33Bailey Bieber smoothie.
05:35It's supposed to be good for your skin.
05:36Have you had it before?
05:37It tastes delicious.
05:38It tastes like a strawberry creamsicle.
05:40It tastes like candy.
05:41That's a milkshake.
05:42Higher, you said?
05:44Oh!
05:44Time, Grant.
05:46Time!
05:46You have two points.
05:47Don't be greedy.
05:48Grant wrote it in French.
05:49It says, this was, I'm trying to say $30.
05:52$21.
05:53Sam.
05:53Sam.
05:54So what happens?
05:55Someone walks into this restaurant and says, I'd like a $20 strawberry milkshake.
05:59It means everyone can't afford it.
06:01Oh, no.
06:02Oh, Grant, no.
06:04With zero correct guesses, Vic and Brennan face off in an elimination tiebreaker.
06:09Almond butter.
06:10Almond butter.
06:10How much does it weigh?
06:12You're weighing.
06:12How much does it weigh?
06:13No touching.
06:14Don't touch the whisk.
06:1511 ounces.
06:17Graham.
06:17Um, and that's...
06:21Uh, uh, security?
06:22Security!
06:23Security!
06:24Security!
06:24Okay.
06:25What are you writing?
06:26It's almond butter.
06:26Now, box her out.
06:28Box her out.
06:29Box her out.
06:29Now, the important thing is this.
06:31How much time do we have?
06:34I will crush you, Sam.
06:36That's time?
06:37Yeah, that's time.
06:38Okay.
06:38What'd you write?
06:38Four.
06:39No!
06:40Wait!
06:40I wrote $11.99.
06:42$4.
06:42$4, Brennan!
06:44I got distracted by running!
06:46$21.
06:47Oh!
06:50You know what?
06:51That was fun just to watch Brennan's face.
06:52You know why it's $21?
06:54What?
06:54Because Erwin likes to watch Brennan lose.
07:00How are you feeling about your loss?
07:02Bad.
07:03Bad.
07:04Bad.
07:04Bad.
07:05Everyone at home, believe in yourself.
07:07That was really nice.
07:08Bad on.
07:10Sunday.
07:11You are Sunday masters.
07:13In teams of two, build the tallest ice cream sundae using the ingredients provided.
07:19You must include ice cream, a peeled banana, and a cherry on top.
07:24Once your cherry is placed, you must measure your sundae to the top of the cherry.
07:29That measurement is final.
07:31Shortest sundae is eliminated.
07:33You have two minutes.
07:34Ready?
07:36Does that mean it's a double elimination round?
07:38You have to say ready.
07:39I am ready.
07:42Have you ever made a sundae before, Sam?
07:44Yeah, sure.
07:46I've never seen a sundae get touched so much by fingers.
07:50No one's eating this.
07:51Does the banana have to be unbroken?
07:54No, it didn't say unbroken banana.
07:56That was not part of the rules.
07:57Peeled, peeled banana.
07:58Got an idea for that banana.
08:00Ugh, I don't like it when Sam says that.
08:03Okay.
08:04Keep going.
08:06Here's our...
08:0640 seconds.
08:08Hey, hey, hey, hey!
08:09Here, we gotta put...
08:12Okay, ready?
08:13Here, let's get the...
08:14Oh, sure.
08:15Oh, sure.
08:16Oh, sure.
08:16Oh, sure.
08:17Oh, sure.
08:17Oh, sure.
08:17Oh, sure.
08:17Got it, got it, got it.
08:18Here we go.
08:19Okay, where's...
08:19Oh!
08:20Oh, that's not on top, Sam.
08:33One.
08:34Okay.
08:36They're cooked.
08:37They're toast.
08:38This is beautiful.
08:40If you remember in the instructions, you're measuring from the cherry.
08:42This is the second banana, by the way.
08:44We have a banana in there.
08:45There's a banana inside.
08:46Did you say we were allowed to put the cherry on top after time went, or was that sort of
08:50like a beforehand thing?
08:51Literally perfect.
08:52Are they allowed to hold it up?
08:53Yeah, I wasn't sure if that was a part of the rules.
08:55Is there no law in this room?
08:56We're supporting our son!
08:57This?
08:58I'm not holding this up.
08:59Look, it's fine.
08:59Listen, it's fine.
09:00Oh!
09:02Oh, man.
09:03It was so close, guys.
09:04Sorry about that.
09:10Oscar and I had a choice, and the choice was do we focus on winning the challenge, or do
09:13we build something architectural that the Sunday community has never seen before?
09:18And what we're bringing to the forefront is sort of questioning the structure of a Sunday.
09:23Well...
09:29Sandwich.
09:30You are a flavor detective.
09:33Blindfolded, take one bite of the sandwich, then recreate it using the ingredients provided.
09:40When time is called, each correctly identified ingredient earns a point.
09:44Each incorrectly identified ingredient loses you a point.
09:49The player with the most points wins the game.
09:52You have two minutes.
09:53Ready?
09:54That's so fun.
09:55This is fun!
09:56I'm toast.
10:00This feels unfair, because Brant has a horse's mouth.
10:03It's so big.
10:04It's so big.
10:05Lily, the director asked so nicely for silence during the bite.
10:07I wasn't listening.
10:16Now it's too much.
10:18You're not going to get your taste buds where they need to go.
10:20You've got way too much in there.
10:21You're flying blind.
10:23I know what they're doing.
10:24Vic is like a fly.
10:26Their taste buds are on their feet.
10:29Their taste buds are on their chin.
10:32You're choking me.
10:34You want a high five?
10:36Okay, let's clear the sandwiches.
10:38Hold on one sec.
10:40Baby!
10:41Damn it!
10:44So I didn't taste any of these things in there.
10:46I'm so glad I got a bite of that sandwich.
10:48I wanted a bite.
10:49You got it.
10:53Are these different things?
10:55Are these different?
10:56You're not blindfolded.
10:57You can see them.
10:57No, but I just don't know if they're different or just smaller.
11:00How many ingredients do we think were on their total?
11:02I think all of them.
11:03I don't know.
11:04My taste buds don't work.
11:07That's so funny.
11:08Can I get a little of that oil?
11:09Yeah, yeah, yeah.
11:10In my mouth?
11:12Ooh!
11:13Do you think it was provolone or not the switch?
11:15No tomato, for sure.
11:20Vic, what did you put in your sandwich?
11:22I have literally no idea.
11:25I can't name half of these things.
11:26I did a circle piece of cheese, turkey, skinny green, mustard, mayo, salt, and I put a tiny bit of
11:36sherry vinegar.
11:39I put on my sandwich mayo, mustard, ham, turkey, provolone, cheese, romaine lettuce, pickled onions, and a little sprinkle of
11:48oregano, and a little sprinkle of salt that I think I'm regretting.
11:51No tomato.
11:51There was no tomato on that sandwich.
11:53Is there a tomato on mine?
11:53No, this was a red herring.
11:54It was a red.
11:55It was a very red herring.
11:56No matter what happens, this won't change us.
11:59No.
11:59We'll come back here a year from today.
12:00Yeah.
12:01We'll stay epicurious.
12:02We all promised that we would leave this more epicurious than when we came in.
12:06Vic receives zero points.
12:08Grant receives five points.
12:09Whoa!
12:11Wow!
12:11Congratulations to both of us, really.
12:13I was very confident coming in, and I'm happy to have been proven right.
12:18Hey guys, I decided I'm going to eliminate myself, and I hope that everybody can sort of take a lesson
12:23from this.
12:24So Oscar, this one's for you.
12:30Do I get to keep this?
12:31I will put this up in my house.
12:32I felt confident coming into this game.
12:34I eat a lot.
12:35I taste a lot of things.
12:37He can fit a lot in his mouth.
12:38I can fit a lot in my big mouth.
12:40I've cracked a coconut before, and there's actually a proper tool for that, which you guys didn't provide, so.
12:45Thank you very much for watching've been on Earth.
12:46Gr multiplies.
12:47Thanks, guys.
12:47Bye.
