00:00Welcome back to Millionaire, Anderson Cooper is here.

00:08He took a few moments off from CNN to come and rack up a goodly sum of cash, $500,000.

00:15Now, Anderson, I want you to know, first of all, Lauren Lapkus, who was on right before

00:20you won $500,000, that almost never happens.

00:23In the whole history of the celebrity show, only three other celebrities have done that.

00:29Rosie O'Donnell, Drew Carey, and Norm MacDonald.

00:31No celebrity has ever won a million dollars.

00:35You would be the first.

00:36It's only happened 12 times.

00:38Probably not going to happen this time.

00:39In the thousands of contestants that have been on this show, only 12 of them have won

00:44a million dollars.

00:45I haven't bitten my nails in like 20 years, and I just started biting my nails again.

00:49You know what?

00:50If there's any time to bite them, this is it.

00:53Still have a lifeline left, phone a friend.

00:56You want to talk about who your friend is?

00:58Yes, my friend is Kelly Ripa.

01:00Yes, Kelly Ripa.

01:01Yeah.

01:02She's up now.

01:03It's late.

01:04She's on vacation, and she kindly said she would...

01:07She is the best.

01:08Yeah, she is.

01:09All right, here we go.

01:10No one better.

01:11For $1 million and a shot at television history, let's play Millionaire for a million dollars.

01:25Here's the million dollar question.

01:28When scientists tested it with an electroencephalogram, which of these food items produced readings

01:36similar to a human brain?

01:39Wintergreen Lifesaver, Spam, Lime Jell-O, Jet Puff Marshmallow.

01:54Okay.

01:58Is any of this ringing a bell in your Jet Puff Marshmallow?

02:03I do recall a...

02:05Spam?

02:06I recall this.

02:09I don't know the answer, but I recall reading something about this a long time ago, and

02:16I'm trying to specifically remember back...

02:19I mean, it must have been 20 years ago I read something about this.

02:24My initial belief is it's Lime Jell-O or Spam.

02:29Definitely don't think it's Jet Puff Marshmallow.

02:34I mean, Spam is sort of an ironic thing that could have been thrown in there by the folks

02:38who write these questions.

02:43But it's also so weird maybe it is that.

02:46Um...

02:51Lime Jell-O...

02:54Scientists tested it with an electroenceph...

03:00I'm not even sure what an electroencephalogram exactly is.

03:06I'm gonna phone a friend.

03:07Might as well, right?

03:08Might as well.

03:09Kelly Ripa's your friend?

03:10Let's phone my friend Kelly Ripa.

03:12This is a hell of a call for her to get on vacation.

03:16Let's get Kelly on the line.

03:22Hello?

03:23Hi, Kelly.

03:24It's Jimmy Kimmel.

03:25Hi, Jimmy.

03:26How are you?

03:27What you doing?

03:28Well, your three best TV friends are here, and we're talking about you.

03:33You're talking about me?

03:34Yeah.

03:35We're hoping that maybe you could help Anderson Cooper win a million dollars.

03:41Oh, God.

03:43He's got $500,000, and he's been saving you for the very end.

03:48Are you serious?

03:49I am serious.

03:51No, you're...

03:52Are you messing with me right now?

03:55I know you know that I would do that, but in this case, I'm not doing that.

04:01Anderson, are you messing with me right now?

04:03Uh, no.

04:04This is the situation we're in.

04:07Why?

04:08I mean...

04:09What?

04:10Couldn't you have called, like, Malcolm Gladwell?

04:13I wanted to be in this with you, Kelly.

04:17Oh, thanks a lot.

04:19Okay, what should I do?

04:21Well, I'll tell you what you should do.

04:23You just have to listen, and you have to answer quickly.

04:26It's a long question.

04:28Anderson can abbreviate it as much as he likes.

04:31And you have 30 seconds, all in.

04:34That means from the beginning of when the question is read.

04:38So you kind of have to give a quick answer.

04:40Oh, my God.

04:41Okay.

04:42Can I say something?

04:43Yeah.

04:44Say whatever you like.

04:45Kelly, feel free to just talk it out.

04:47Any advice would be welcome, and, um...

04:50Yeah, don't worry about it if you don't know.

04:52That's okay.

04:53We're still friends, though, no matter what.

04:55No matter what, yes.

04:56Things aren't going that great between him and Andy right now, so...

05:01Wait, Andy's there?

05:02Andy is standing here with a check for a million dollars, in case we get this right.

05:07Andy is providing moral support right now, okay?

05:10Okay.

05:11All right, Kelly.

05:12Okay.

05:13Are you ready?

05:14Okay.

05:15Anderson, you ready?

05:16Yeah.

05:17Your time starts now.

05:18When scientists tested it with an electroencephalogram,

05:22which of these food items produced readings similar to a human brain?

05:26A. Wintergreen Lifesaver.

05:28B. Spam.

05:30C. Lime Jell-O.

05:31D. Jet Puffed Marshmallow.

05:34When scientists tested it with an electroencephalogram,

05:39which of these food items produced readings similar to a human brain?

05:43A. Lifesaver.

05:44B. Spam.

05:45C. Lime Jell-O.

05:46D. Jet Puffed Marshmallow.

05:51Well, she was not your lifesaver.

05:53She doesn't get to answer?

05:55Well, no.

05:56That was 30 seconds.

05:57You used the whole time up asking the question.

06:00Well, she didn't say anything.

06:02Because she got cut off.

06:04She's probably talking right now.

06:06Right now she's going, hello?

06:08Hello?

06:09Hello?

06:10Hello?

06:12Okay.

06:13Okay.

06:14I mean, listen, that's a weird one for anyone to know.

06:17No, listen, there's no way she would know that unless she, I mean, I think,

06:21I know I've read something about this once.

06:27I'm pretty sure it's spam.

06:30But,

06:32if I get this wrong, I go down to $32,000.

06:36Yeah, you will lose $468,000 if you get this wrong.

06:39So, this is a charity, this is a great guy named Jimmy Hatch.

06:43He was a Navy SEAL for his entire career.

06:45He had an incredible career.

06:46But, just as a sense of responsibility,

06:53if the money was going to me, I would just gamble and say B. Spam.

06:58But, just, I think the responsible thing to do is to walk away with the $500,000.

07:05I'm going to walk away.

07:07Is that your final answer?

07:09It would be vain of me to try to go for the million dollars.

07:13So, I am going to walk away.

07:17That's your final answer?

07:18That is my final answer.

07:19So, you said if you had gone for it.

07:21If I had gone for it, I'm 97% sure it's spam.

07:27Oh, wow. You're 97% sure?

07:30I just made that up, that number.

07:34It's either spam or lime jello.

07:38Well, it is either spam or lime jello.

07:40Is it really?

07:41It's lime jello.

07:45Awesome.

07:48You win.

07:49Anderson Cooper is walking away with $500,000 for Spike's canine fund.

07:56That's a lot of best, Anderson.

07:57Ladies and gentlemen, Anderson Cooper.

07:59We're going to take a break.

08:00We're going to switch spots.

08:01When we come back, we'll be right back.
