Transcript
00:00Hi, Dropout fans, I'm Zach.
00:02I'm Allie.
00:03And I'm Lisa, and you're about to watch a brand new episode of Game Changer.
00:06This one's kind of a doozy.
00:08Yeah.
00:09Tonally a little bit different than other Game Changer episodes,
00:12and that was a lot for me to kind of sink my teeth into.
00:15Yeah, and I would say it has heart.
00:17Yeah.
00:18We really had a lot of fun, and we hope that you do, too.
00:20Enjoy it.
00:21Peace. Love.
00:22Starting now.
00:24Now!
00:25Now!
00:31Get ready for a Game Changer tonight's guests.
00:36Splash emoji, grip emoji, it's Allie Beardsley.
00:40From the cross to the grave.
00:43The noisiest boy, the sight of Boise, it's Sakoyama.
00:47From the grave to the sky.
00:50And literally my closest friend, Lisa Gilroy.
00:54Lord, I left your name on high.
00:58And your host, me.
01:00I've been here the whole time.
01:03This is Game Changer, the only game show where the game changes every show.
01:08I am your host, Sam Reich.
01:10I am joined today by these three lovely contestants.
01:14Now, you all understand how the game works.
01:16Yes.
01:17Not at all.
01:18Oh, you know?
01:19The game changes on you, Sam.
01:21What you don't know is that every word...
01:23No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:25I know, we all had Red Bulls.
01:28We all had Red Bulls.
01:30We all had Red Bulls, and then we sang worship songs for a long time backstage.
01:34Because whatever gets you up there, you know what I mean?
01:36Amen.
01:37That's right, our players have no idea what game it is they're about to play.
01:40The only way to learn is by playing.
01:43The only way to win is by learning, and the only way to begin is by beginning.
01:46So without further ado, let's begin.
01:49Ash, if I could please have the Bit-O-Meter.
01:54Oh, no.
01:55Oh, no.
01:56Oh, wow.
01:58Excellent.
01:59Is this original?
02:00This is an original 1956 Bit-O-Meter.
02:02Oh, my God.
02:03Lisa.
02:04No!
02:05With the Bit-O-Meter set to all bits,
02:09would you please explain how a TV works?
02:12Oh, a TV...
02:14There's a little box of worms!
02:16And the worms come on, and they...
02:18And they rock out the show!
02:21Sounds chock full of bits.
02:23Yeah.
02:24Something like that.
02:25It's very funny.
02:26I would expect nothing less from a professional.
02:27Let's say one point for you.
02:29Ali, with the Bit-O-Meter set midway between bits and no bits,
02:34would you explain how a TV works?
02:37A TV is working with light through a series of tubes,
02:43which is why some people call it the tube,
02:46and was coined by my mom, who invented the TV in 1649.
02:52Way to toe the line there.
02:54Hey, thank you.
02:55That's going to be a point for you as well.
02:56Great.
02:57Zach.
02:58What am I, chapter leader?
02:59With the Bit-O-Meter set to no bits,
03:02would you explain how a TV works?
03:04You know, electricity makes light and sound come through this box,
03:09and then there's a signal coming in
03:11that makes those lights and sounds appear as, like,
03:14a show that you're watching from, like, a network or something like that.
03:18Well done, Zachary.
03:20I think that was the most sincere of any of these three takes,
03:24and so I'm going to say a point for you as well.
03:26Moving right along.
03:30He broke it!
03:33Oops.
03:34Oops all bits.
03:35Oops no bits.
03:36Players, it looks like you're stuck with every comedian's worst nightmare.
03:40Being earnest.
03:43Oh, fuck.
03:44If my players want to earn points,
03:46they will have to be as sincere as possible.
03:51You can still joke, of course, just not when it's your turn.
03:55That's going to be expensive to repair.
03:57If it's vintage.
03:59Sucks.
04:00Yeah, they don't make models like this anymore.
04:02Damn.
04:03You're obsessed with models.
04:08Bring it on, Lisa.
04:09I did mantras in advance of today, knowing it was going to be you and me.
04:15Which brings us to our next challenge.
04:18Proudly show off your belly button.
04:23Players, I'm going to ask you one at a time
04:25to step off to the side of your podium.
04:27While you do so, we want to make sure to capture
04:29both your performance as well as your belly button.
04:32Zach, we'll start with you.
04:34This is a disgusting show.
04:39Through the hole?
04:40I'm going to go through the hole to kind of create a border around it.
04:43That's my belly button.
04:45I'll be honest.
04:46This is deeply vulnerable.
04:48This is a deeply vulnerable feeling moment.
04:51But if I had to speak honestly about my belly button,
04:54I think it's okay.
04:55I think it does the job.
04:59I guess it's an innie.
05:00It's not an outtie.
05:01No shade to outties out there.
05:04Happy with my innie.
05:05Little hair going on, not a ton.
05:09Really feeling just sweat starting to form.
05:12Good job, Zach!
05:15Really good.
05:17My only criticism might be that I'm not sure
05:20you were quite proud enough of your belly button,
05:23but it did feel very sincere to me.
05:25Ali.
05:26I'm going to adopt Zach's kind of like control the narrative frame.
05:30Okay, this is my belly button.
05:32This is how I was connected to my mom
05:34when we were the closest we ever will be
05:37when she was feeding me through this.
05:39I don't really remember that,
05:40but there are moments in life that make you think,
05:43oh, maybe that's what that felt like.
05:45Like when you submerge in the ocean for the first time.
05:48Or when there isn't enough room in the car for everyone,
05:51so you offer to sit in like the hatchback back area
05:54and you're alone curled up.
05:56They're kind of like infinite moments,
05:58and I think that they're very tied to my belly button.
06:02Oh, Ali.
06:03Okay, yeah.
06:04Profound material there.
06:06Lisa, that's your gun.
06:07I'm scared.
06:10Good morning, everyone.
06:12Thank you so much for having me.
06:13I don't have a little window, but that's okay
06:15because I'm so excited to lift a wonderful curtain.
06:18If this was a heavy velvet curtain,
06:20it would be even more apropos
06:22because here's my girl.
06:26A doctor once said,
06:27a belly button is a collection of nerve endings
06:29that make it confusing.
06:30Poke your belly button and maybe you feel it
06:32in your asshole or your vagina or in your lungs.
06:34You don't know because the belly button gets actually confused
06:36about where the nerves are leading.
06:38It's the only bundle of nerve tissue on the body
06:40where because it's been a severed umbilical cord,
06:42it doesn't know who it is anymore.
06:44So I'm actually so proud of her and who she is
06:46and she doesn't have to have it figured out
06:48in order to be showing up for me every single day.
06:51And she's never been pierced.
06:53She's a virgin.
06:56Wow, Lisa.
06:59Way to give us a performance
07:01that I think was both proud and earnest-seeming.
07:06It was earnest.
07:07I am going to say that you win that round.
07:10I'm also going to say two points for you.
07:12That's great.
07:13Way to go!
07:15Besties!
07:16Wait, I didn't know that the nerve endings
07:18were actually confused.
07:19That makes so much sense.
07:20That's why when I push deep in my belly button,
07:22Sam feels it.
07:24Players, next up.
07:25Describe a delicious spaghetti and meatballs
07:28in an Italian accent.
07:30Lisa, you're now in the lead,
07:31so we'll start with you.
07:33Once I had a delicious spaghetti and meatballs.
07:37The meatballs were so round.
07:40That's a perfect way that the chef can make it.
07:44The noodles were...
07:48Oh, so aromatic.
07:50Fresh tomato from Firenze.
07:53And most important, to enjoy with the familia.
07:58Well done, Lisa.
08:02You did sneak in a it's-a-me.
08:04You thought about what you were doing.
08:06Got in your head a little bit.
08:07But really grounded by the end.
08:09Ali.
08:10Okay.
08:13Yeah, I'm Dutch, but I'm here on holiday.
08:19And I'm reading it right now.
08:22But I'm Dutch, and this is me doing an Italian accent.
08:27It's...
08:29Did I make this harder than it needed to be?
08:34See?
08:36That's my whole shot, dude.
08:37Wow!
08:39Ali!
08:43Was it more earnest to take the big swing
08:45and continue to swing after you saw you miss?
08:48I appreciate the earnest recognition of your own failure.
08:53Zach.
08:54The number one...
08:57most important thing about making a spaghetti and a meatball
09:01is making the meatball.
09:03You need the breadcrumbs and the onions and the ground beef,
09:06and then you form the meatball.
09:08You cook them on the outside,
09:09and then you put them in the tomato sauce.
09:13And you cook the sauce a couple hours,
09:15and then you come back, not one,
09:17two days later.
09:20And then...
09:22And then you get a spaghetti from the store.
09:23It doesn't have to be special.
09:24And then you put on the meatballs,
09:26and you put on the sausage,
09:27and you put on the ribs.
09:28Ribs? He's acting crazy.
09:29You're familiar.
09:31I'm Dutch.
09:34Zach!
09:35Careful there. That's okay.
09:36That was a pretty grounded performance.
09:39I do think that Lisa was playing a touch more of a character.
09:44But I nailed it.
09:49And so I'm gonna say this point goes to Zach.
09:51But only the one point.
09:54I didn't feel that anybody managed to do that in time.
09:58Aw, they're best friends!
10:00That's nice!
10:02Let's make this the hug episode.
10:05Next up, players.
10:06Share what you're working on in therapy.
10:11Down, dude.
10:12It doesn't matter if you tell the truth or lie,
10:15so long as I believe you.
10:17Zach, this time we'll start with you.
10:19I don't have a therapist right now.
10:21It shows.
10:24I forgot we're allowed to do as many pictures as we want.
10:26Yes!
10:27I love that.
10:28You are allowed to try to trip each other up.
10:29But if I were to be in therapy,
10:31this is the question, right?
10:32What do you think you would be working on?
10:33I think I'm a harsh critic to myself.
10:36And I think I would like to work on that.
10:38Be a little kinder to myself in the work I do.
10:41Or don't do.
10:42Because I'm not defined by my work.
10:43Dang.
10:44That's something I think we could all afford to work on a little bit.
10:46That was so beautiful.
10:49God, that was beautiful, dude.
10:51Could have been nice to be hugged.
10:53Good job.
10:54Zoink.
10:56Lisa.
10:57I'm working on something that's called parts work
11:00that I think is very interesting
11:01that I think a lot of people could benefit from.
11:03Hell yeah.
11:04So the work is saying,
11:05oh, there's a part of me that feels so jealous right now
11:07that I'm made up of all these different parts.
11:09And it's okay for all the different parts to get,
11:11some are loud and some are quiet,
11:12depending on the day, depending on the situation.
11:14And seated at the head of the table is my higher self,
11:16who's like very chill and has more wisdom
11:18and more of a, you know, a worldview.
11:20And then that way you don't get overwhelmed.
11:22You don't go like, I'm scared right now.
11:23I'm so scared, I'm so scared.
11:24It's like, no, there's a part of me that's scared.
11:26There's a part of me that's jealous.
11:27It doesn't consume the whole person
11:28and there's room for everything.
11:30It reminds me of the Buddhist principles about-
11:33So this is my turn, so.
11:37Yes.
11:38Thank you very much, dear friend.
11:42And Ali.
11:43The reason I first got into therapy
11:45is because I think I prided myself on being really chill
11:49and the type of person who never gets angry,
11:51which of course means I'm extremely bottled up, serious.
11:55And so it's just working on expressing anger
11:58in a healthy way.
11:59You can have conflict with people and work through it.
12:02Remind you of anything you want to say, Sam?
12:04Hate to say it, but in Buddhism-
12:05It's my turn, Sam!
12:09I do think of those three performances
12:12that Ali's was the most dropped into me.
12:14You all did well with that challenge.
12:16I'm going to say two points for you.
12:18Okay.
12:19Maybe we could take a cue from Ali and work on our anger issues.
12:22It actually really pissed me off.
12:26Next up, players, give a tip for spicing up the bedroom.
12:35Ali, you won the last challenge,
12:37and so here I think I'll start with you.
12:38God, it's so hard not to do a bit.
12:40When I was in middle school and high school,
12:43I wasn't allowed to have any of those beauty magazines
12:46because my mom's a gremlin.
12:48No, I'm kidding.
12:51Uh-oh!
12:52Okay, listen!
12:54One time I got one,
12:55and it was the most insane info about ice cubes
13:00and take a necktie and wrap it around the shaft.
13:07That's my tip!
13:09That's your tip.
13:10Lisa?
13:11In order to spice up the bedroom,
13:14the rug should be bigger than the bed itself
13:16but not totally touching each wall.
13:18So you want about two feet of rug on either side,
13:20and you can pick a fun colored rug that is in contrast to
13:23but complementary to the bedspread.
13:25Now, you can add lamps for mood on either side.
13:28They can be the same kind or different.
13:30And a very fun overall light piece.
13:32I have kind of like a wooden chandelier in my bedroom,
13:35so there's all sorts of ways to keep it spicy in the bedroom.
13:37Incredible.
13:39I will allow it, Lisa.
13:43You better, you pervert, or the police will come.
13:48Wow.
13:49My turn? Your turn, Zach.
13:50My tip for spicing up the bedroom is...
13:52A different bedroom.
13:53That's right, travel.
13:54Can just sort of create a spark in your life
13:57that maybe if you're in the same routine, you're not finding.
14:01And so I think that can wake you back up.
14:05I actually do think, Zach,
14:08that that was the most earnest of those answers
14:11taking into consideration this prompt.
14:13I absolutely think so, too.
14:14And I am therefore going to give you two points.
14:17I am, however, also going to give Lisa one point
14:20because I appreciated that loophole as much as I did.
14:23That was great.
14:26Next up, Ash, if I could please have the karaoke microphone.
14:30Oh, no.
14:32Tough.
14:33Tough.
14:34Cute.
14:35I want you to give me an earnest karaoke rendition
14:39of Seal's Kiss from a Rose.
14:42That's right.
14:43The first time Dropout has ever licensed a mainstream song,
14:46it's Seal's Kiss from a Rose.
14:50Oh, fuck.
14:51You'll each do about 20 seconds of the song
14:53to the karaoke video that we have here.
14:55Wow.
14:56How much did this cost?
14:57$15,000.
15:00Oh, my God.
15:01I think an earnest episode deserves an earnest answer.
15:04That's incredible.
15:05Do I have any volunteers for who would like to go first?
15:07Hell, no.
15:08I'll get it out of the way.
15:09Hell, yeah.
15:10Singing is my forte.
15:12Zach, are you ready?
15:13I'm as ready as I'll ever be.
15:14In that case.
15:17Fuck.
15:22Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose
15:27on the gray.
15:29I get the strange way it feels, yeah.
15:34Now that your rose is in bloom,
15:38the light hits the gloom on the gray.
15:43Well done, Zach.
15:47Well done.
15:48I have kind of a deeper range,
15:49since that's pretty hard for me.
15:50That's hard for your vocal range.
15:51It was pretty vulnerable.
15:52Absolutely.
15:53Well, vulnerability is what this town is all about.
15:56You need to take off.
16:02Ali, you have some experience with public singing
16:05in the dropout world.
16:06Yeah.
16:08This too shall pass.
16:12Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.
16:22Batman's just running.
16:23Yeah.
16:25Now that your rose is in bloom,
16:28the light hits the gloom on the gray.
16:34Wow, Ali.
16:37Lisa, it's your go.
16:39I was wondering if we could look at each other
16:41and you not smile and I won't smile.
16:43You want me to come look at you?
16:44Just take one step forward.
16:45Okay.
16:46And I'm going to try to just look into your eyes
16:47and I'm not going to have a laugh.
16:50Can we find a tissue for all the snot on Lisa's face?
16:53Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the gray.
17:00Ooh, the more I get of you, the stranger it feels.
17:05Yeah.
17:06And now that your rose is in bloom,
17:10the light hits the gloom on the gray.
17:16Ooh.
17:17Wow.
17:21That was awesome, Lisa.
17:24It took me right back to Batman Forever.
17:26Thanks.
17:27I am going to say two points for that matter.
17:30What?
17:31That's crazy.
17:32Did you like mine?
17:33What's up?
17:36What's that I hear?
17:37Could it be Santa's sleigh?
17:39Is it actually?
17:41What's up, dipshit?
17:43Hey, it's definitely not Paula Thompkins
17:46and almost certainly Santa.
17:48Merry Christmas.
17:50Now, players, your challenge is sit on Santa's lap
17:55and tell him what you want for Christmas.
17:57Christmas lasts all year long in here,
18:01if you're Christian.
18:03Christmas lasts all year long in here,
18:07if you're Christian.
18:10I'm half Jewish.
18:11My mom is like kind of atheist.
18:13Did you get Christmas presents as a kid?
18:15I did.
18:16That was them, not me.
18:17Sorry.
18:18Oh, damn.
18:19Rules are rules.
18:20Understood.
18:22Lisa, you are in the lead,
18:24and so I think we'll start with you.
18:26Let me get on my Christmas throne.
18:29That's how you know it's really real.
18:33There. How's that?
18:35That's fine. Very tasteful.
18:39Boy, I wish that were within my control.
18:43I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
18:45This hardly ever happens,
18:46but every once in a while I have to say,
18:48can't do it.
18:51I wish for the industry to be kinder to women.
18:54Wow.
18:55Wow.
18:56That is pretty, pretty earnest.
18:58That's earnest.
18:59Santa can't do that?
19:00Look, man.
19:03I'm sorry, Lisa,
19:04but thank you for sharing your deep thought with me.
19:06Who else is coming to see Santa?
19:09Let's say Zach next.
19:11Look at this guy.
19:12All grown up.
19:13Hey, Santa.
19:14Sit down, old man.
19:16The who?
19:19I don't get the whispering.
19:20Should I just say it out loud?
19:21Yeah, say it out loud.
19:22I wish I got a new bicycle.
19:25What kind of bicycle would you like?
19:26I want one that feels like you could do
19:28on like trails and stuff.
19:30BMX?
19:31So you don't want anything for women in the industry?
19:35Santa said that was off limits.
19:36That was Zach's first choice.
19:37I was waiting for a man to ask.
19:41See, that's where the change happens.
19:43You get a bike. You get a bike, dude.
19:45Okay, great.
19:46Thank you, Zach.
19:48Allie.
19:49Come on over here, Allie.
19:51No.
19:52It quickly settled into what?
19:56I want a $400 hammer.
19:58Is that for real?
20:00There's this really fancy, really nice hammer that's $400,
20:04and I want it.
20:05Does this relate to something that you discovered in trade school?
20:07Yeah, no, it's just like a really nice industry standard hammer.
20:10Industry standard?
20:12It's really nice, and you can pick your color.
20:14What color would you like?
20:15Red.
20:16Red.
20:17With a lime green handle.
20:18Oh, now you're talking my color.
20:20Yeah, exactly.
20:21Thank you, Santa.
20:23Well done, Allie.
20:26Santa, do you happen to have a read of which of those you felt was the most earnest?
20:31It's between Lisa and Allie.
20:33Yeah.
20:35Because I know what Lisa said.
20:37She really deeply desires this to happen.
20:40Yeah.
20:41But I also have the feeling Allie really wants that $400 hammer.
20:44I know. That's exactly where I'm at, too.
20:46Like, to even know that such a hammer exists.
20:48Yeah, I agree.
20:49I think I am going to say two points for Allie
20:54and one point for Lisa.
20:56Because once again, Lisa thinking a little outside the box.
20:59Yeah.
21:00Do you want a little behind-the-scenes?
21:01Sure.
21:02Zach also whispered to me that he wanted a new laptop,
21:04but then I guess he felt shy about it when he was telling everyone.
21:09He downgraded to just a bike.
21:11That's incredible.
21:14It'd be fun to play games on it and stuff.
21:16You know what, Zach?
21:17A late point for you for your honesty.
21:20That's huge.
21:21Now, Sam, this is a pretty naughty premise for an episode.
21:25You're getting cold this year.
21:26Spank him.
21:27What?
21:28Spank him.
21:29That's not a thing I do.
21:30That classic Santa thing.
21:31Spank him.
21:32That Santa spang.
21:33Spank that man, Santa.
21:34You guys are freaks.
21:35Spank him.
21:36You're freaks.
21:37But I will tell you, the way to spice things up in the bedroom is
21:40pretend somebody's in the room next to you
21:43and try to be as silent as possible.
21:45That is a really good tip, Santa.
21:49Thank you so much.
21:50Santa.
21:51Santa.
21:52Santa.
21:53Santa.
21:54Bye, Santa.
21:55Next up, players, it's a compliment duel.
21:59Two at a time, I'm going to ask you to take center stage about five paces apart.
22:05You'll each take turns giving each other compliments one at a time
22:09and then taking a step forward until your nose knows.
22:14The first person even to crack a smile loses.
22:19It's Allie and Zach.
22:21Let's have you begin.
22:22Zach, you're going to stand about here.
22:25Allie, you're going to stand about here.
22:29Now, if you could please turn your backs to each other to start.
22:33This is going to be a turn and Zach's go on three, two, one.
22:40You're an incredibly, deeply funny person.
22:46I think that you're spontaneous in a way that a lot of people try to be,
22:52but it's just effortless for you.
22:57You have an incredible varied skill set,
23:00especially in recent years with your carpentry and building skills.
23:08I think you're a really great role model to a lot of people
23:12and you're going to be a great parent one day.
23:17I admire your courage and many politically active moments in our world.
23:30Allie, out!
23:34It's me about to compliment just your neck.
23:37That's where I was.
23:39Zach, as that champion, same spuck.
23:43Lisa, players, turn your backs to each other.
23:47This is going to be a spin and Lisa's go on three, two, one.
23:53You are one of the most welcoming people in the comedy community.
23:59No one can go zero to 60 as silly as you.
24:04Your freckles are adorable.
24:07You moved here and very quickly became one of the faces of the comedy scene that we were in.
24:15You have a playful and contagious...
24:22Fuck.
24:23Excellent!
24:25Oh my God.
24:28Lisa.
24:29We're going to do it now, you sick fuck.
24:31Not you and me.
24:36Allie.
24:37Great.
24:40Out there.
24:41Excellent.
24:42I don't know what I'm going to do.
24:45Tumbleweed goes fine.
24:48Turn your backs to each other.
24:51This is going to be a spin and Allie's go on three, two, one.
24:57I feel like it's really hard to be femme and really funny because of fucked up circumstances
25:02and I feel like you are just such a great example for a lot of people like that.
25:09You have simply the most beautiful blue eyes.
25:13I'm so sorry.
25:18That is going to be two points for Lisa and one point for Zach.
25:24But we all won because we all got to hear such nice things.
25:26Yeah, that's true.
25:27Next up players, write a breathtaking poem.
25:31You each have notepads and pens inside your drawers.
25:34Your poems can be however long or short as you like, but they must be an earnest attempt to move us.
25:42You have one minute.
25:45Starting now.
25:53In five, four, three, two, one.
25:59There are also berets inside your drawers.
26:02I'm going to ask you to sport those berets and read your poetry to camera.
26:08Starting with Zach.
26:10If you would please come center here and you can direct this to AJ's camera.
26:16My poem is called This Old Dog.
26:19This old dog sits on the sunny porch waiting for his best friend.
26:25In time, he'll see him again and smile and finally cross on to the next world.
26:35Zach, way to play our heartstrings.
26:40Lisa.
26:42I've never seen a beret do that.
26:45Is this crazy?
26:46It looks like an acorn a little bit.
26:50Sam, you are obsessed with mom.
26:52You guys got that, right?
26:53You guys got that?
26:54That works.
26:55That's great.
26:56This poem is called Exhale.
26:58We share a cigarette outside your mother's house.
27:02White clouds of smoke meet the white clouds of winter air.
27:06I can't tell which are which.
27:07I only know I'm happy to share it, this air between us.
27:12I'm only pretending to inhale.
27:14I don't know why.
27:16But you, I am inhaling.
27:18Deeply and completely.
27:20These white clouds of air between us.
27:23Never wanting to exhale.
27:25Whoa!
27:27Lisa!
27:29Oh my God.
27:30Damn!
27:32Allie.
27:33Mine's a lot shorter.
27:35Hey listen, this was an interpretive assignment.
27:37Great.
27:39My parents, a sunset.
27:43My child, a sunrise.
27:46I sit here between with a view.
27:53Damn!
27:54I thought that was pretty profound.
27:57This is going to be tough to judge.
27:59Three poets.
28:00Three geniuses.
28:01Post an album cover?
28:02You sort of look like you're...
28:05Like you're all wearing sandbags on your heads.
28:08I think I am going to say that being such a profound poem, Allie.
28:14It really was.
28:16Three points for you.
28:18That almost made me cry at that point.
28:20Yo, yours, they were all very good though.
28:22Three points for Lisa.
28:23That's right.
28:24Thanks.
28:25And one point for Zach.
28:30Players, next up.
28:31Offer some constructive criticism on each other's poems.
28:37You may pick a fellow player.
28:40I mean, this is when we should actually do it.
28:43That's fine with me.
28:45Choose a fellow player and give them some actual constructive criticism on their poem.
28:49I loved your poem a lot.
28:51I feel like referring to dogs as men's best friend and stuff is something that we all know.
28:55It's a turn of phrase.
28:56It could be interesting if you chose a more specific way to talk about that.
29:00Something that's our personal version of best friend.
29:03I like that.
29:04Allie, any feedback?
29:05I didn't have any notes.
29:06I don't know.
29:07Zach with the dog.
29:12Zach?
29:13Did it have a title?
29:14This Old House.
29:15Yeah, yeah.
29:16If you take that beat up top, we will be kind of set up to sort of inhale the poem.
29:23I'm waiting on a tea.
29:24Yeah, we've been waiting on a pot of Moroccan mint tea.
29:27I think I have to say two points for Lisa and one point for Zach.
29:33And I'm sorry, Allie, I'm going to dock you a little bit.
29:35It's all right.
29:36Players, call in the COVID compliance team because we're about to drop some sick beats.
29:41Antonio!
29:43What's up, what's up?
29:44What's up?
29:45Thanks for coming out, man.
29:47Now, Antonio is a professional and very talented beatboxer.
29:51Wow.
29:52Next up, players, I'm going to ask you to freestyle rap a me diss track.
29:59It doesn't matter if it's good or bad.
30:01It only matters that it's an earnest try.
30:04Allie, I think I'll start with you.
30:08Hello.
30:09Hello.
30:10Great to meet you.
30:11Great to meet you as well.
30:13All right, here we go.
30:14One, two.
30:20Allie.
30:24It's going to happen any second.
30:26Any minute.
30:28Can't wait.
30:33So excited.
30:34It's just a long instrumental lead up.
30:37Cat in the hat.
30:38Cat in the hat.
30:43Now, cat in the hat is your freestyle Sam diss track.
30:53That's you, dog.
30:54You're so cat in the hat.
30:55If that's your go, then that's your go.
30:57I'll take it.
30:58That's my go.
30:59Zach.
31:00Hi, how are you?
31:01Nice to meet you.
31:02That was amazing.
31:03Let's get our cameras in here, please.
31:04I'm just trying to think of rhymes right now.
31:05Is that what you do when you freestyle?
31:06Yeah.
31:07I'm trying to think of them right before.
31:09Take it away whenever you're ready.
31:22Here's a freestyle about Sam.
31:24He looks like a bit of a fucked up lamb.
31:26Sam is so sweet.
31:27Sam is so kind.
31:29In reality, he won't help you out in a bind.
31:31Sam pretends that he likes to fuck, but everybody knows that Sam sucks.
31:38Woo.
31:39Everybody knows.
31:41Hell yeah, Zach.
31:43It's just...
31:44This whole show is blackmail.
31:46It's just tough.
31:48I thought that was an earnest try with some rhymes and some heat thrown my way.
31:54It's the best rap I've ever done.
31:57Lisa.
31:59Are you hyperventilating?
32:01Yeah, I'm ready.
32:02Take it away, Antonia.
32:08Fuck you, Sam.
32:11Oh, Sam is stinky.
32:13Pork and beans.
32:15Look at him with his white, white sneaks.
32:18Idiot in a striped suit.
32:20Walking around here thinking that you're so cute.
32:23Four-eyed bitch.
32:24I want to kill you.
32:26And that's what I'm going to do.
32:28Sam, Sam.
32:29They call you Reich, but you're so rude.
32:31You're not even nice.
32:32I would push you off a building.
32:33I would throw you down the stairs.
32:34Sam, deeply, I do not care.
32:36You can't stand behind here and do the game, so you act like this?
32:40Oh, so, so lame.
32:41Like, welcome to Game Changers.
32:43I'm the boss.
32:44I'm scared inside, and my heart is made of moss.
32:46I'm a little tree, baby.
32:47I'm a mushroom man.
32:49I'm scared.
32:50Give me a can of milk, mommy, please.
32:53Give me my beans.
32:54I'm little baby, baby, and I have disease.
32:56I belong in the grave.
32:58Yes, you do.
32:59Get in there, Sam.
33:00I'll kick your ass.
33:01I belong in the grave.
33:02Yes, you do.
33:03Get in there, Sam.
33:04I'll kick you with my shoe.
33:08Wow.
33:09That was on point.
33:10God.
33:11Oh, my God.
33:12Wow.
33:13You sure you didn't prepare that?
33:15Lisa's had that ready to go for years.
33:17That is three whole points for Lisa Gilroy.
33:21Yeah.
33:22Antonio, I think we all know you're the most talented person on this stage.
33:25Thank you so much.
33:26Hey, one of these, and...
33:27Oh, wow.
33:29Thank you, man.
33:30Like the Paul Hollywood handshake.
33:32Peace.
33:33Hi.
33:35Wow.
33:36I'm sorry I called you a little mushroom man.
33:37My favorite part was when you said you would kill him.
33:40You weirdly aren't the first and won't be the last.
33:45Next up, players, shoot a heartfelt intro to this episode.
33:50In a moment, I'm going to take you offstage where we have director's chairs set up
33:54in the style of a BTS interview.
33:57Keep in mind that this will go at the beginning of this episode without context.
34:03No.
34:04If you could follow me to the director's chairs behind the scenes.
34:07Damn it.
34:11This is very funny.
34:12One of us has to be British.
34:16Hi, Dropout fans.
34:17I'm Zach.
34:18I'm Ali.
34:19And I'm Lisa, and you're about to watch a brand new episode of Game Changer.
34:26Players, terrific intro.
34:27I think that's going to set up our episode brilliantly.
34:31Lisa and Ali might have leaned into the bit a touch.
34:34I was playing Robert Pattinson.
34:36And I was just doing what you had asked us to do earlier with the meatball and the Italian,
34:39but with British.
34:40That's brilliant, isn't it?
34:41It's brilliant.
34:42In it.
34:43In it.
34:44We are going to say two points for Zach.
34:46Yeah.
34:47Oh.
34:49Hello?
34:50Really?
34:52Players, that was Hollywood calling with a very exciting audition for all of you.
34:58It was so fast.
34:59Did they say it?
35:00So fast.
35:01If you could please memorize these signs while we get the three of you into makeup.
35:08Oh, no.
35:10Oh, no.
35:13Next up, players, audition for the role of the Joker, starting with Ali.
35:23My name's Ali.
35:28I'm 5'9".
35:29I'm based in Los Angeles.
35:34You want to know how I got these scars?
35:39It's a skin condition.
35:42It's called angular chelitis.
35:46Cracked, painful sores in the corner of my mouth.
35:52Dermatologist doesn't like that, not at all.
35:58It's not contagious, but people always avoid me.
36:03Like I have the plague.
36:07And I'm like, why so serious?
36:13Wow, Ali.
36:16Wow.
36:19I'm going to turn you to your podium.
36:20Okay.
36:22Next to audition, Zak Oyama.
36:28This is my mark, right?
36:29Yeah.
36:30Okay.
36:31Hi, thanks for seeing me.
36:32I'm a huge fan of the franchise.
36:34I'm 6' tall.
36:35I have my passport.
36:36These are my hands.
36:38Take it away whenever you're ready.
36:39You want to know how I got these scars?
36:43I was trimming my mustache.
36:46The ladies love a mustache.
36:49When I dropped my razor and oops, I didn't like that.
36:56Not one bit.
36:59Carved me up like a Thanksgiving turkey.
37:03Wine?
37:06Excuse me.
37:08Carved me up like a Thanksgiving turkey.
37:11Then I did the other side just to make it even.
37:15Why so serious?
37:19Yeah, Zak.
37:20I don't know.
37:21Like that a lot.
37:22I don't know, man.
37:24You got it, man.
37:25Seriously.
37:26And lastly, Lisa Goroy.
37:32Hi, I'm Lisa Goroy.
37:33I'm 5' 8", and I'm based in L.A.
37:39You want to know how I got these scars?
37:44There was a Slice Your Face Open Challenge on TikTok.
37:49So I did it.
37:50I posted it.
37:54And my followers didn't like that.
37:57Not one bit.
38:01And the irony is, I was the only one who liked it.
38:06Why so serious?
38:18Wow.
38:23Wow, players.
38:25I got to say, I would book any of you.
38:29Oh, no, don't do it back to me.
38:32Oh, God, it's so rough.
38:35But there is one performance that I felt was particularly dropped in in earnest.
38:42And that was Allie's.
38:44Wow.
38:45I'm going to give you three points.
38:47Now, players, so far, you have done incredibly well squaring off against each other.
38:53But how will you do when faced with your most formidable opponent yet, yourselves?
38:59Ash, if I could please have the mirror.
39:01Oh, my God, this is great.
39:03Thank you so much, Ash.
39:05Next up, players, it's an Affirmation Off.
39:08How this is going to work is you're going to line up in front of this mirror.
39:12And going one at a time, repeat the affirmations I give you.
39:16Wow.
39:17First even to crack is out, and the last player standing wins.
39:22Okay.
39:23Standing in front of this mirror, let's have Lisa first, followed by Allie, followed by Zach.
39:31Lisa, your first affirmation is money just happens to me.
39:35Cha-ching.
39:37Money just happens to me.
39:39Cha-ching.
39:41Allie.
39:44Money just happens to me.
39:46Cha-ching.
39:49Money just happens to me.
39:51Cha-ching.
39:54I ate today and left no crumbs, and that's on period.
40:03I ate today and I left no crumbs.
40:08That's on period.
40:13Oh!
40:15Let's get you back to your podium, Lisa.
40:18Allie.
40:19I ate today and I left no crumbs, and that's on period.
40:26Zach.
40:27I ate today and I left no crumbs, and that's on period.
40:33Last one, Allie.
40:35I'm a sex magnet. No one can resist this body yada yada.
40:45I'm a sex magnet, and no one can resist this body yada yada.
40:53I'm a sex magnet, and no one can resist this body yada yada.
40:58Wow! Okay! Allie and Zach, bravo! Let's get you back to your podiums, please.
41:05Why so serious?
41:07I am going to say two points for each of Zach and Allie.
41:12Lisa's still in the lead as we enter into the last prompt of our game.
41:18Players, for this last challenge, I would like to introduce you to our guest choreographer, Amy Hessler.
41:25Amy!
41:27Oh my gosh!
41:29Amy, thank you so much for being here.
41:31So happy to be here. Y'all look hot.
41:36Your very last challenge.
41:43Oh my God.
41:44Did you know that using the song twice per episode costs the same amount as using it once per episode?
41:49Amy is going to rehearse with you here and now, and when we cut back from that transition,
41:55we will be in the world of I Never Said I Could Dance.
42:01I'm gonna kill you.
42:06See you after this transition.
42:13And now, Allie, Zach, and Lisa.
42:36And now, Allie, Zach, and Lisa.
42:38And now, Allie, Zach, and Lisa.
42:40And now, Allie, Zach, and Lisa.
