Game Changer 7x3

1. - Hiya, Dropout fans. I'm Zac.

2. - I'm Ally.

3. - And I'm Lisa, and you're about to watch

4. a brand new episode of "Game Changer".

5. This one's kind of a doozy.

6. - Tonally, a little bit different

7. than other "Game Changer" episodes,

8. and that was a lot for me to kind of sink my teeth into.

9. - Yeah, and I'll say it has heart.

10. - Yeah. - We really had a lot of fun,

11. and we hope that you do too.

12. Enjoy it.

13. - Peace, love.

14. - Starting now.

15. - Now!

16. - Now!

17. Get ready for a Game Changer!

18. Tonight's guests, splash emoji grip emoji,

19. it's Ally Beardsley!

20. - From the cross to the grave.

21. The noisiest boy this side of Boise, it's Zac Oyama!

22. - From the grave to the sky.

23. And literally my closest friend, Lisa Gilroy.

24. - Lord, I lift your name on high.

25. - And your host, me. I've been here the whole time.

26. This is "Game Changer", the only game show

27. where the game changes every show.

28. I am your host, Sam Reich.

29. I am joined today by these three lovely contestants.

30. Now, you all understand how the game works.

31. - Not at all. - Yes.

32. - Oh! - You know?

33. - The game changes on you, Sam.

34. What you don't know is that everyone in this room-

35. - No, no no no! No no no, no no no!

36. - You are a contestant! - I know we all had Red Bulls.

37. We all had Red Bulls.

38. - We all had Red Bulls and then we sang worship songs

39. for a long time backstage.

40. - Because, whatever gets you up there, you know what I mean?

41. - Amen.

42. - That's right, our players have no idea

43. what game it is they're about to play.

44. The only way to learn is by playing,

45. the only way to win is by learning,

46. and the only way to begin is by beginning.

47. So without further ado, let's begin.

48. Ash, if I could please have the bit-o-meter.

49. - Oh no.

50. - Oh no. - Oh wow.

51. - Excellent. - Is this original?

52. This is an original 1956 bit-o-meter.

53. - Oh my god.

54. - Lisa. - No!

55. - With the bit-o-meter set to all bits,

56. would you please explain how a TV works?

57. - Oh, a TV is just a little box of worms!

58. And the worms come out, and they go...

59. And they act out the show!

60. - Sounds chock full of bits.

61. - Yeah, Lisa, very funny. - Something like that.

62. - I would expect nothing less from a professional.

63. Let's say one point for you.

64. Ally, with the bit-o-meter set

65. midway between bits and no bits,

66. would you explain how a TV works?

67. - A TV is working with light through a series of tubes,

68. which is why some people call it the tube,

69. and was coined by my mom,

70. who invented the TV in 1649.

71. - Way to toe the line there. - Hey, thank you.

72. - That's going to be a point for you as well.

73. - Great.

74. - Zac. - What am I, chopped liver?

75. - With the bit-o-meter set to no bits,

76. would you explain how a TV works?

77. - You know, electricity makes light and sound

78. come through this box, and then there's a signal coming in

79. that makes those lights and sounds appear as, like,

80. a show that you're watching

81. from, like, a network or something like that.

82. - Well done, Zachary.

83. I think that was the most sincere

84. of any of these three takes,

85. and so I'm going to say a point for you as well.

86. Moving right along.

87. - He broke it!

88. - Oops. - Oops, all bits?

89. - Oops, no bits! - Oh!

90. - Players, it looks like you're stuck

91. with every comedian's worst nightmare.

92. Being earnest.

93. Oh fuck.

94. - If my players want to earn points,

95. they will have to be as sincere as possible.

96. You can still joke, of course.

97. - Fuck.

98. - Just not when it's your turn.

99. - That's going to be expensive to repair, if it's vintage.

100. - Sucks. - Yeah, they don't make

101. models like this anymore.

102. - Damn. - You know?

103. You're obsessed with models.

104. - Absolutely savage. - Bring it on, Lisa.

105. I did mantras in advance of today,

106. knowing it was going to be you and me.

107. Okay.

108. - Which brings us to our next challenge.

109. Proudly show off your belly button.

110. - Ew. - Sick. You're a sick fuck.

111. - Players, I'm going to ask you one at a time

112. to step off to the side of your podium.

113. While you do so, we want to make sure to capture

114. both your performance, as well as your belly button.

115. Zac, we'll start with you.

116. - This is a disgusting show.

117. - Look. - Through the hole?

118. - I'm going to go through the hole

119. to kind of create a border around it.

120. That's my belly button.

121. I'll be honest, this is deeply vulnerable.

122. This is a deeply vulnerable feeling moment.

123. But if I had to speak honestly about my belly button,

124. I think it's okay.

125. I think it does the job.

126. I guess it's an innie. It's not an outie.

127. No shade to outies out there.

128. Happy with my innie.

129. A little hair going on. Not a ton.

130. Really feeling just sweat starting to form.

131. - Good job, Zac. - Thank you, thank you.

132. - Really good. - This show's sick.

133. - My only criticism might be that I'm not sure

134. you were quite proud enough of your belly button,

135. but it did feel very sincere to me.

136. - Ally. - I'm going to adopt

137. Zac's kind of control the narrative frame.

138. Okay, this is my belly button.

139. This is how I was connected to my mom

140. when we were the closest we ever will be,

141. when she was feeding me through this.

142. I don't really remember that, but there are moments in life

143. that make you think, oh, maybe that's what that felt like.

144. Like when you submerge in the ocean for the first time,

145. or when there isn't enough room in the car for everyone

146. so you offer to sit in the hatchback back area,

147. and you're alone, curled up.

148. There are kind of like infinite moments,

149. and I think that they're very tied to my belly button.

150. - Oh, Ally, okay. Yeah, profound material there.

151. - Lisa, that's your go. - I'm scared.

152. Good morning, everyone. Thank you so much for having me.

153. I don't have a little window, but that's okay,

154. because I'm so excited to lift a wonderful curtain.

155. If this was a heavy velvet curtain,

156. it would be even more apropos, because...

157. A doctor once said a belly button

158. is a collection of nerve endings that make it confusing.

159. Poke your belly button,

160. and maybe you feel it in your asshole

161. or your vagina or your lungs, you don't know,

162. because the belly button gets actually confused about

163. where the nerves are leading. - Wow.

164. - It's the only bundle of nerve tissue in the body

165. where because it's been a severed umbilical cord,

166. it doesn't know who it is anymore,

167. so I'm actually so proud of her and who she is,

168. and she doesn't have to have it figured out

169. in order to be showing up for me every single day.

170. And she's never been pierced! She's a virgin.

171. - Wow, Lisa, way to give us a performance

172. that I think was both proud and earnest-seeming.

173. - It was earnest.

174. - I am going to say that you win that round.

175. I'm also going to say two points for you.

176. - That's great.

177. Way to go!

178. - Besties! - Earnest hug!

179. - Wait, I didn't know that the nerve endings

180. were actually confused, that makes so much sense.

181. - Yeah, yeah, that's why when I push deep

182. in my belly button, Sam feels it.

183. - Players, next up,

184. describe a delicious spaghetti and meatballs

185. in an Italian accent.

186. Lisa, you're now in the lead, so we'll start with you.

187. - Once I had a delicious spaghetti and meatballs.

188. The meatballs were so round.

189. That's the perfect way that the chef can make it.

190. The noodles were oh so aromatic

191. of fresh tomato from Firenze,

192. and most important to enjoy, with the familia.

193. Ooh.

194. - Well done, Lisa. Just a couple of moments-

195. - You did sneak in a, "It's-a me."

196. You thought about what you were doing

197. and got in your head a little bit.

198. But really grounded by the end.

199. - Oh my god. - Thank you.

200. - Ally. - Okay!

201. Yeah, I'm Dutch, but I am here on holiday.

202. And I'm reading it right now.

203. But I'm Dutch, and this is me doing an Italian accent.

204. Did I make this harder than it needed to be?

205. Sì!

206. That's my whole shot, dude. - Wow!

207. Ally!

208. - Was it more earnest to take the big swing,

209. and continue to swing after you saw you missed?

210. - I appreciate the earnest recognition of your own failure.

211. - Thank you. - Zac.

212. - The number one most important thing

213. about making spaghetti and meatballs is making the meatball.

214. You need the breadcrumbs and the onions and the ground beef

215. and then you form the meatball, you cook them on the outside

216. and then you put them in the tomato sauce,

217. and you cook the sauce a couple hours,

218. and then you come back not one, two days later.

219. And then you get spaghetti from the store.

220. It doesn't have to be special.

221. And then you put on the meatballs

222. and you put on the sausage and you put on the ribs.

223. - Ribs? He's acting crazy. - Ribs?

224. - La familia.

225. I'm Dutch.

226. - Zac, careful there. That's okay.

227. That was a pretty grounded performance.

228. I do think that Lisa was playing

229. a touch more of a character.

230. But I nailed it.

231. - And so I'm going to say this point goes to Zac,

232. but only the one point. - Oh.

233. - I didn't feel that anybody managed to do that entire-

234. - Aw! They're best friends! - That's nice!

235. Let's make this the hug episode.

236. Next up, players, share what you're working on in therapy.

237. - Damn, dude.

238. - It doesn't matter if you tell the truth or lie,

239. so long as I believe you.

240. Zac, this time, we'll start with you.

241. - I don't have a therapist right now.

242. - It shows.

243. - I forgot we were allowed to do as many bits as we want.

244. - Yes. - I love that.

245. - You are allowed to try to trip each other up.

246. - But if I were to be in therapy is the question, right?

247. - What do you think you would be working on?

248. - I think I'm a harsh critic to myself,

249. and I think I would like to work on that.

250. Be a little kinder to myself and the work I do, or don't do,

251. because I'm not defined by my work.

252. - Dang.

253. - That's something I think we could all afford

254. to work on a little bit. - That was so beautiful.

255. - God, that was beautiful, dude. - Thank you.

256. Could've been nice to be hugged, but...

257. - Good job.

258. Zoink!

259. - Lisa.

260. - I'm working on something that's called Parts Work

261. that I think is very interesting,

262. that I think a lot of people could benefit from.

263. - Hell yeah. - So the work is saying,

264. oh, there's a part of me that feels so jealous right now,

265. and I'm made up of all these different parts,

266. and it's okay for all different parts to get,

267. some are loud and some are quiet,

268. depending on the day, depending on the situation,

269. and seated at the head of the table

270. is my higher self who's, like, very chill

271. and has more wisdom and more of a, you know, world view.

272. And then that way, you don't get overwhelmed.

273. You don't go like, I'm scared right now!

274. I'm so scared, I'm so scared!

275. It's like, no, there's a part of me

276. that's scared, there's a part of me that's jealous.

277. - Yes. - It doesn't consume

278. the whole person, and there's room for everything.

279. - Ooh!

280. - It reminds me of the Buddhist principals about-

281. - So, this is my turn. So...

282. - Yes, thank you very much, dear friend.

283. And Ally.

284. - The reason I first got into therapy

285. is because I think I prided myself

286. on being really chill and the type of person

287. who never gets angry, which of course means I'm

288. extremely bottled up, furious. - Yeah.

289. - And so I was just working on expressing anger

290. in a healthy way. - Yes.

291. - You can have conflict with people and work through it.

292. - Remind you of anything you want to say, Sam?

293. - Hate to say it, but in Buddhism-

294. - It's my turn, Sam! - Boring!

295. Boo!

296. - I do think, of those three performances,

297. that Ally's was the most dropped in to me.

298. You all did well that challenge.

299. I'm going to say two points for you.

300. - Oh! - Okay.

301. - Maybe we could take a cue from Ally

302. and work on our anger issues.

303. - That actually really pissed me off.

304. - Next up, players, give a tip for spicing up the bedroom.

305. Ally, you won the last challenge.

306. - Sure. - And so here,

307. I think I'll start with you.

308. - God, it's so hard not to do a bit.

309. When I was in, like, middle school and high school,

310. I wasn't allowed to have any of those, like,

311. beauty magazines, because my mom's a gremlin.

312. No, I'm kidding.

313. - Uh-oh! Uh-oh! - Okay, listen! Okay, okay!

314. One time I got one, and it was the most insane

315. info about, like, ice cubes and like,

316. take a necktie and wrap it around the shaft.

317. - Sorry, what was the tip? - That's my tip.

318. That's your tip.

319. Lisa.

320. - In order to spice up the bedroom,

321. the rug should be bigger than the bed itself

322. but not totally touching each wall,

323. so you want about two feet of rug on either side,

324. and you can pick a fun colored rug

325. that is in contrast to but complementary to the bedspread.

326. Now, you can add lamps for mood on either side,

327. and they can be the same kind or different,

328. and a very fun overall light piece.

329. I have kind of like a wooden chandelier in my bedroom.

330. So there's all sorts of ways

331. to keep it spicy in the bedroom.

332. - Incredible. Yeah. - Wow.

333. - I will allow it, Lisa.

334. - You better, you pervert, or the police will come!

335. - Wow. My turn? - Your turn, Zac.

336. - My tip for spicing up the bedroom is a different bedroom.

337. That's right, travel can just sort of create

338. a spark in your life that maybe

339. if you're in the same routine, you're not finding,

340. and so I think that can wake you back up.

341. - I actually do think, Zac, that that was the most earnest

342. of those answers. - I agree!

343. Taking into consideration this prompt.

344. - I absolutely think so too.

345. - And I am therefore going to give you two points.

346. I am, however, also going to give Lisa one point,

347. because I appreciated that loophole as much as I did.

348. - That was great. Aw, sweet!

349. - Next up, Ash, if I could please have

350. - the karaoke microphones. - Oh no.

351. - Tough. - Thank you.

352. - I want you to give me an earnest

353. karaoke rendition of Seal's "Kiss from a Rose".

354. That's right, the first time Dropout has ever licensed

355. a mainstream song, it's Seal's "Kiss from a Rose".

356. - Oh no! - Oh my god.

357. - Oh, fuck.

358. You'll each do about 20 seconds of the song.

359. - Wow!

360. - To the karaoke video that we have here.

361. - Wow!

362. - How much did this cost?

363. - $15,000.

364. - Oh my god.

365. - I think an earnest episode deserves an earnest answer.

366. - That's incredible.

367. - Do I have any volunteers for who would like to go first?

368. - Hell no.

369. - I'll get it out of the way. - Hell yeah!

370. - Singing is my forte.

371. - Zac, are you ready?

372. - I'm as ready as I'll ever be.

373. - In that case. - Okay.

374. Fuck!

375. Well done, Zac.

376. Well done.

377. - I have kind of a deeper range,

378. and so that's pretty hard for me.

379. That's hard for your vocal range?

380. - It was pretty vulnerable. - Absolutely.

381. Well, vulnerability is what this is all about.

382. That was pretty vulnerable.

383. You gonna take off?

384. - Ally, you have some experience with public singing

385. in the Dropout world. - Yeah, yeah.

386. This, too, shall pass.

387. - Batman's just running.

388. - Wow, Ally. - Thank you.

389. - Lisa, it's your go.

390. - I was wondering if we could look at each other,

391. and you not smile and I won't smile.

392. - You want me to come look at you-

393. - Just take one step forward. - Okay.

394. - And I'm going to try to just look into your eyes,

395. and I'm not going to have a laugh.

396. - Can we fly in a tissue for all the snot on Lisa's face?

397. - Whoa! - Wow!

398. - That was awesome, Lisa.

399. It took me right back to "Batman Forever".

400. Thanks.

401. - I am going to say two points for that-

402. - What? That's crazy. - Nice!

403. - Did you like mine? - What's up?

404. What's that I hear? Could it be Santa's sleigh?

405. - Is it actually?

406. - What's up, dipshits?

407. Hey.

408. - It's definitely not Paul F Tompkins!

409. - No!

410. And almost certainly Santa!

411. - Merry Christmas!

412. Now, players, your challenge is,

413. sit on Santa's lap and tell him what you want for Christmas.

414. - Christmas lasts all year long, in here.

415. - Aw. - If you're Christian.

416. - I'm half Jewish. My mom is kind of atheist.

417. - Did you get Christmas presents as a kid?

418. - I did. - That was them, not me.

419. - Oh, damn. - Sorry.

420. - Oh, damn. - Rules are rules.

421. - Understood! - Wow.

422. Lisa, you are in the lead,

423. and so I think we'll start with you.

424. - Scoot over a little.

425. There. How's that?

426. That's fine. Very tasteful.

427. Boy, I wish that were within my control.

428. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

429. This hardly ever happens,

430. but everyone in a while, I have to say, can't do it.

431. - I wished for the industry to be kinder to women.

432. - Oh.

433. - Wow. - Wow.

434. - That is pretty, pretty earnest.

435. - That's earnest. - Santa can't do that?

436. Look, man. I...

437. I'm sorry, Lisa, but thank you for sharing

438. your deep thought with me.

439. - Let's say Zac next.

440. - Look at this guy. All grown up.

441. - Hey, Santa. - Sit down on us.

442. Oh-ho!

443. I don't get the whispering.

444. - Should I just say it out loud?

445. - Yeah, say it out loud.

446. - I wished I got a new bicycle.

447. - What kind of bicycle would you like?

448. - I want one that feels like you could do

449. on, like, trails and stuff. - BMX?

450. - So you don't want anything for women in the industry?

451. - Santa said that was off limits.

452. - That was Zac's first-

453. - I was waiting for a man to ask.

454. - Then yeah, if that's- - Done!

455. - See? That's where the change happens.

456. - You get a bike. You get a bike, dude.

457. - Okay, great.

458. Thank you, Zac. Ally.

459. - Come on over here, Ally. - Hello!

460. They quickly settled in, too. What?

461. I want a $400 hammer.

462. - Is that for real?

463. - There's this really fancy,

464. really nice hammer that's $400, and I want it.

465. - Does this relate to something

466. that you discovered in trade school?

467. - Yeah, no, it's just like

468. a really nice industry standard hammer.

469. - Industry standard?

470. - It's really nice, and you can pick your color.

471. - What color would you like? - Red.

472. - Red! - With a lime green handle.

473. - Oh, now you're talking my colors!

474. - Yeah, exactly. - I love it.

475. - Thank you, Santa. - You're welcome.

476. - Oh my god. - Well done, Ally.

477. Santa, do you happen to have a read of which of those

478. you felt was the most earnest?

479. - It's between Lisa and Ally.

480. Because I know what Lisa said,

481. she really, deeply desires this to happen.

482. - Yeah. - But I also have the feeling

483. Ally really wants that fucking hammer.

484. - I know, that's exactly where I'm at, too.

485. - To even know that such a hammer exists!

486. Yeah, I agree.

487. I think I am going to say

488. two points for Ally. - Ooh!

489. - And one point for Lisa. - Ooh!

490. - Because once again- - Ooh!

491. - Lisa thinking a little outside the box.

492. - Yeah.

493. - You want a little behind the scenes?

494. - Sure. - Zac also whispered to me

495. that he wanted a new laptop,

496. but then I guess he felt shy about it

497. when he was telling everyone.

498. He downgraded to just the bike.

499. - That's incredible!

500. - It'd be fun to play games on it and stuff.

501. - You know what, Zac? A late point for you for your honesty.

502. - That's huge.

503. - Now, Sam, this is a pretty naughty premise for an episode!

504. You're getting coal this year.

505. - Spank him! - What?

506. - Spank him! - Spank him!

507. - That's not a thing I do! - That classic Santa thing!

508. - Spank him! - That Santa spank.

509. - Spank that man, Santa! - Spank him!

510. - You guys are freaks. - Spank him!

511. - You're freaks, but I will tell you,

512. a way to spice things up in the bedroom is,

513. pretend somebody's in the room next to you

514. and try to be as silent as possible.

515. - That is a really good tip! - It's hot!

516. - Santa, thank you so much.

517. - Santa! Santa! - Santa! Santa!

518. - Bye, Santa! - Thank you, Santa.

519. - Next up, players, it's a compliment duel.

520. - Ooh. - Two at a time,

521. I'm going to ask you to take center stage

522. about five paces apart.

523. You'll each take turns giving each other compliments

524. one at a time, and then taking a step forward

525. until you're nose to nose.

526. The first person even to crack a smile loses.

527. Ally and Zac, let's have you begin.

528. Zac, you're going to stand about here.

529. - Okay.

530. - Ally, you're going to stand about here.

531. Now, if you could please

532. turn your back to each other to start.

533. This is going to be a turn and Zac's go

534. on three, two, one.

535. - You're an incredibly deeply funny person.

536. - I think that you're spontaneous

537. in a way that a lot of people try to be,

538. but it's just effortless for you.

539. - You have an incredible, varied skill set,

540. especially in recent years

541. with your carpentry and building skills.

542. - I think you're a really great role model

543. to a lot of people and you're going to be

544. a great parent one day.

545. - I admire your courage

546. in many politically active moments in our world.

547. - That is Ally out! - Fuck!

548. - It was me about to compliment just your neck.

549. That's where I was.

550. - Zac, as that champion, same spot.

551. Oh fuck.

552. Lisa.

553. Players, turn your backs to each other.

554. This is going to be a spin, and Lisa's go,

555. on three, two, one.

556. - You are one of the most welcoming people

557. in the comedy community.

558. - No one can go zero to sixty as silly as you.

559. - Your freckles are adorable.

560. - You moved here and very quickly became

561. one of the faces of the comedy scene that we are in.

562. - You have a playful and contagious-

563. - Fuck.

564. - Excellent, Lisa! - Oh my god!

565. Lisa.

566. - We're going to do it now, you sick fuck?

567. Not you and me.

568. - Ally. - Great.

569. - There, excellent.

570. A compliment duel!

571. - A tumbleweed goes by.

572. - Turn your backs to each other.

573. This is going to be a spin, and Ally's go.

574. Three, two, one.

575. - I feel like it's really hard to be femme and really funny

576. because of fucked up circumstances,

577. and I feel like you are just such a great example

578. for a lot of people like that.

579. - You have simply the most beautiful blue eyes.

580. - Goddammit! - I'm so sorry!

581. That is going to be two points for Lisa.

582. - Damn. - And one point for Zac.

583. - But we all won because we all got to hear

584. such nice things. - Yeah, that's true.

585. - Next up, players,

586. - write a breathtaking poem. - Fuck.

587. - You each have notepads and pens inside your drawers.

588. You poems can be however long or short as you like,

589. but they must be an earnest attempt to move us.

590. You have one minute. - Oh my god.

591. Starting now.

592. And five, four, three, two, one.

593. There are also berets inside your drawers.

594. I'm going to ask you to sport those berets

595. and read your poetry to camera, starting with Zac.

596. If you would please come center here,

597. and you can direct this to AJ's camera.

598. - My poem is called "This Old Dog".

599. This old dog sits on the sunny porch

600. waiting for his best friend.

601. In time, he'll see him again and smile

602. and finally cross on to the next world.

603. - Zac, way to play our heartstrings.

604. Lisa.

605. - I've never seen a beret do that.

606. - Is this crazy?

607. - It looks like an acorn, a little bit.

608. - I'm just going to- - Ow!

609. - Sam! You guys got that, right?

610. - You are obsessed with models!

611. - You guys got that?

612. - That works. - That's great.

613. - This poem's called "Exhale".

614. We share a cigarette outside your mother's house.

615. White clouds of smoke meet the white clouds of winter air.

616. I can't tell which are which.

617. I only know I'm happy to share it, this air between us.

618. I'm only pretending to inhale. I don't know why.

619. But you, I am inhaling, deeply and completely.

620. These white clouds of air between us,

621. never wanting to exhale.

622. Whoa!

623. Lisa!

624. Oh my god!

625. Damn!

626. Ally. - Mine's a lot shorter.

627. - Hey, listen, this was an interpretative assignment.

628. Great.

629. My parents, a sunset.

630. My child, a sunrise.

631. I sit here between with a view.

632. - Damn. I thought that was pretty profound.

633. - Thank you.

634. - This is going to be tough to judge.

635. - Three poets.

636. - Three geniuses. - Pose for the album cover.

637. You sort of look like you're...

638. Like you're all wearing sandbags on your heads.

639. I think I am going to say

640. that being such a profound poem, Ally-

641. - It really was. - Mm.

642. - Three points for you.

643. - That almost made me cry, that poem.

644. - Aw! They were all very good, though.

645. - Two points for Lisa.

646. - That's right! - Thanks.

647. - And one point for Zac.

648. Players, next up, offer some constructive criticism

649. on each other's poems.

650. You may pick a fellow player-

651. - I mean, this is when we should actually be wearing this.

652. - That's fine with me.

653. Choose a fellow player and give them

654. some actual constructive criticism on their poem.

655. - I loved your poem a lot.

656. I feel like referring to dogs as man's best friend and stuff

657. is something that we all know, it's a turn of phrase.

658. It could be interesting if you chose a more specific

659. way to talk about that, a personal take on it, yeah.

660. - Yeah, something that's like our personal version

661. of a best friend. - Yeah.

662. - I like that. - Ally, any feedback?

663. - I didn't have any notes. I don't know.

664. Zac, with the dog.

665. - Zac? - Did it have a title?

666. - "This Old House".

667. - Yeah, yeah, if you take that beat up top,

668. we will be kind of set up to sort of inhale the poem.

669. I'm waiting on a tea.

670. - We've been waiting on a pot of Moroccan mint tea.

671. - I think I have to say two points for Lisa

672. and one point for Zac, and I'm sorry Ally,

673. I'm going to dock you a little bit.

674. - It's all right.

675. - Players, call in the COVID compliance team,

676. because we're about to drop some sick beats!

677. Antonio!

678. - What's up, what's up?

679. - Thanks for coming out, man. - Happy to be here.

680. Now, Antonio is a professional and very talented beatboxer.

681. - Wow. - Next up, players,

682. I'm going to ask you to freestyle rap a me diss track.

683. It doesn't matter if it's good or bad,

684. it only matters that it's an earnest try.

685. Ally! - Yeah, let's do it.

686. - I think I'll start with you.

687. - Hello. - Hello.

688. - Great to meet you. - Great to meet you as well.

689. - And we're just going to set up cameras here.

690. - Oh, great.

691. - All right, here we go. - One, two...

692. Ally!

693. - It's going to happen any second.

694. Any minute.

695. - Can't wait.

696. So excited. It's just a long instrumental lead-up.

697. - Cat in the hat.

698. - Oh wow! - Innovative.

699. - Now, cat in the hat is your...

700. Is your freestyle Sam diss track?

701. - That's you, dog. - You're so cat in the hat.

702. - If that's your go, then that's your go. I'll take it.

703. - That's my go. - Zac.

704. - Hi, how are you? - Hey, nice to meet you.

705. - That was amazing.

706. - Let's get our cameras in here, please.

707. - I'm just, like trying to think of rhymes right now.

708. Is that what you do when you freestyle?

709. - Yeah. - You just freak out.

710. - You just think of them right before.

711. - Take it away whenever you're ready.

712. - Oh no.

713. - Woo!

714. - Everybody knows!

715. - Hell yeah, Zac.

716. - It's just-

717. - This whole show is blackmail.

718. - It's just tough.

719. - I thought that was an earnest try

720. with some rhymes and some heat thrown my way.

721. - It's the best rap I've ever done.

722. Lisa.

723. Are you hyperventilating a little bit?

724. - Yeah, I'm ready.

725. Take it away, Antonio.

726. - Fuck you, Sam!

727. - Wow, that was on point. - Oh my god.

728. Oh my god.

729. - Wow!

730. - You sure you didn't prepare that?

731. - Lisa's had that ready to go for years.

732. Lisa was running lines.

733. - That is three whole points for Lisa Gilroy.

734. - Thanks. - Yeah.

735. - Antonio, I think we all know

736. you're the most talented person on this stage.

737. - Thank you so much. - Hey, one of these, and...

738. - Wow! - Thank you, man.

739. - Like the Paul Hollywood handshake.

740. - Peace! - Bye, thank you.

741. - Wow.

742. - I'm sorry I called you a little mushroom man.

743. - Four-eyed bitch!

744. My favorite part was when

745. you said you would kill him.

746. - You weirdly aren't the first, and won't be the last.

747. Next up, players, shoot a heartfelt intro to this episode.

748. In a moment, I'm going to take you offstage

749. where we have directors' chairs set up

750. in the style of a BTS interview.

751. Keep in mind that this will go

752. at the beginning of this episode without context.

753. - No! - If you could follow me

754. to the directors' chairs behind the scenes.

755. - Dammit.

756. - This is very funny. - One of us has to be British.

757. - Hiya, Dropout fans. I'm Zac.

758. - I'm Ally.

759. - And I'm Lisa, and you're about to watch

760. a brand new episode of "Game Changer".

761. - Players, terrific intro.

762. I think that's going to set up our episode brilliantly.

763. Lisa and Ally might have leaned into the bit a touch.

764. - I was playing Robert Pattinson.

765. - And I was just doing what you had asked us to do earlier

766. with the meatball and the Italian, but with British.

767. - That's brilliant, isn't it?

768. - It's brilliant. - It's brilliant, innit?

769. - We are going to say two points for Zac.

770. Yeah.

771. Oh. Hello?

772. Really?

773. Players, that was Hollywood calling

774. with a very exciting audition for all of you.

775. - It was so fast. - It's porn.

776. - So fast.

777. - If you could please memorize these sides.

778. - God!

779. - While we get the three of you into makeup.

780. - Oh no. - Oh no!

781. - Next up, players, audition for the role of the Joker,

782. starting with Ally.

783. - My name's Ally, I'm 5'9". I'm based in Los Angeles.

784. You want to know how I got these scars?

785. It's a skin condition.

786. It's called angular cheilitis.

787. Cracked, painful sores in the corner of my mouth.

788. Dermatologist doesn't like that, not at all.

789. It's not contagious, though people always avoid me,

790. like I have the plague!

791. And I'm like, why so serious?

792. Wow, Ally! Wow!

793. Let's return you to your podium.

794. Great.

795. - Next to audition, Zac Oyama.

796. - This is my mark, right? - Yeah.

797. - Okay. Hi, thanks for seeing me.

798. Huge fan of the franchise. I'm six feet tall.

799. I have my passport. These are my hands.

800. - Take it away whenever you're ready.

801. - You want to know how I got these scars?

802. I was trimming my mustache.

803. The ladies love a mustache.

804. When I dropped my razor, and oops,

805. I didn't like that.

806. Not one bit.

807. Carved me up like a Thanksgiving turkey.

808. Line?

809. Excuse me.

810. Carved me up like a Thanksgiving turkey.

811. Then I did the other side just to make it even.

812. Why so serious?

813. - Yeah, Zac! - I don't know.

814. - Liked that a lot. - I don't know, man.

815. - You got it, man. Seriously.

816. - And lastly, Lisa Gilroy.

817. - Hi, I'm Lisa Gilroy, I'm five foot eight,

818. and I'm based in LA.

819. Do you want to know how I got these scars?

820. There was a slice your face open challenge on TikTok.

821. So I did it. I posted it.

822. And my followers didn't like that.

823. Not one bit!

824. I was the only who liked it.

825. Why so serious?

826. Wow!

827. Wow, players.

828. I gotta say, I would book any of you.

829. Oh no, don't. Don't do it back to me.

830. Oh god, so rough.

831. But there is one performance that I felt

832. was particularly dropped in and earnest,

833. - and that was Ally's. - Wow.

834. - I'm going to give you three points.

835. Now, players, so far, you have done incredibly well

836. squaring off against each other,

837. but how will you do when faced

838. with your most formidable opponent yet, yourselves?

839. Ash, if I could please have the mirror.

840. - Oh my god. - This is great.

841. - Thank you so much, Ash.

842. Next up, players, it's an affirmation-off.

843. How this is going to work is, you're going to line up

844. in front of this mirror, and going one at a time,

845. repeat the affirmations I give you.

846. - Wow. - First even to crack is out,

847. and the last player standing wins.

848. - Okay.

849. - Standing in front of this mirror,

850. let's have Lisa first, followed by Ally, followed by Zac.

851. Lisa, your first affirmation is, money just happens to me.

852. Cha-ching!

853. - Money just happens to me. Cha-ching.

854. Ally.

855. - Money just happens to me. Cha-ching.

856. - Money just happens to me. Cha-ching.

857. - I ate today and left no crumbs, and that's on period.

858. - I ate today and I left no crumbs.

859. That's on period.

860. - Oh! - I love the mirror!

861. - Let's get you back to your podium, Lisa. Ally.

862. - I ate today and left no crumbs,

863. and that's on period.

864. Zac.

865. - I ate today and left no crumbs, and that's on period.

866. Last one, Ally. I'm a sex magnet.

867. No one can resist this body-yody-yody.

868. - I'm a sex magnet,

869. and no one can resist this body-yody-yody.

870. - I'm a sex magnet,

871. and no one can resist this body-yody-yody.

872. - Wow, okay, Ally and Zac. Bravo.

873. Let's get you back to your podiums, please.

874. Why so serious?

875. - I am going to say two points for each of Zac and Ally.

876. - Yes! - Lisa still in the lead

877. as we enter into the last prompt of our game.

878. Players, for this last challenge,

879. I would like to introduce you to our guest choreographer,

880. Amy Hessler. - Oh no.

881. Hey!

882. Oh my god!

883. - Amy, thank you so much for being here.

884. - So happy to be here. Y'all look hot.

885. - Thanks. - Thank you.

886. - So, players, your very last challenge,

887. one minute of choreography to Seal's "Kiss from a Rose".

888. - Oh my god.

889. - Did you know that using the song twice per episode

890. costs the same amount as using it once per episode?

891. Amy is going to rehearse with you here and now,

892. and when we cut back from that transition,

893. we will be in the world of I Never Said I Could Dance.

894. I'm gonna kill you.

895. - See you after this transition.

896. And now, Ally, Zac, and Lisa!

897. Wow! Bravo, players!

898. Let's get you back to your podiums, please!

899. Players, that went better than it had any right to.

900. - You tested us, man. - Yeah, you tested us.

901. - Now, without a doubt in my mind, Ally and Zac,

902. that is three points each for both of you.

903. But Lisa, that is five points for you.

904. - Yeah. - Wow!

905. - Talk about dancing your heart out.

906. The winner of our episode is Lisa Gilroy.

907. Lisa, you win this monogrammed handkerchief

908. in order to capture all of your genuine tears.

909. - Thank you! - It just makes me think

910. that there must be monogrammed napkins for the rest of us.

911. - Yeah. - And you're just choosing

912. not to give them to us. - Don't give them to them.

913. I'll be really upset.

914. - That does it for us here at "Game Changer"!

915. I am your host, Sam Reich,

916. reminding you that caring is cool.

917. Unfortunately, not caring is even cooler. Goodnight.
