- Welcome to the White Elephant Show,
where we gather gifts from Vat19 and beyond,
and see what we love best.
Today's theme is gifts that aren't what they seem.
So Ben gets to go first,
and open any present he wants on the table.
- It's not what it seems.
It seems heavy, but it's actually light.
Is that a thing, is that possible?
- There could just be dead weight in there.
- Oh, I got play dirt.
So this is sort of like our kinetic sand stuff.
It looks like dirt, but it's not.
It molds together and it sticks together.
It's super easy to clean up.
So this is a good first gift to get,
but it could be bad, 'cause it might be very stealable.
- Alright so, Ben's got the Play Dirt.
Now it's Kelsey's turn.
She can steal the Play Dirt, but she can also choose
a mystery item from the table, it's up to you.
- Well that looks fun,
but it looks a little messy.
- It's a little messy, I'll be honest.
- So, I just want a surprise.
- And we know you like opening presents.
- We know you like opening presents.
- Yeah, I like opening presents.
- Your ideal present would be
if there was another present inside of it.
- Yeah, like it just keeps going.
- Okay, perfect.
- Oh great, it's a hairbrush.
- [Danny] Oh, it's a hairbrush.
- But it's not what it seems.
Let's see if she can figure it out.
This is actually a good test of the product,
to make sure she can't, like,
tell that it is not just a hairbrush.
- I use to have a hair brush that you could
take off the end, and you could put hairspray in it.
So I was gonna guess something was gonna happen
on the end of it, if there's something else.
- [Ben] You could like put a martini in there if you want.
It's like a decoy flask.
- [Jon] You could be drinking at your desk all day
and Jaime would never know.
- It's like why is she brushing her hair so much.
(chuckling)
- Now it's my turn.
I can choose to steal either one of these things
or choose something on the table,
but once I steal something
then it cannot be stolen again in this round.
- In that round right? - In this round.
I think I'm going to hit the table again.
I'm going to just take my chances.
Oh! - Oh, Banana Phone.
- Banana Phone. - Banana Phone.
- So the Banana Phone is like a Bluetooth head set,
but it looks like a banana.
Yelling at somebody in this, would be really funny.
No, no buy it, no, sell it!
- I got my eyes peeled on that Jon, I'll be honest.
- Oh, alright!
Alright Maddie you're up.
- I've had my eye on that Play Dirt.
I love the like, cool, kinetic sand type stuff.
- [Ben] It's pretty satisfying.
- It's soothing, yeah.
I think I'm going to have to steal that from you Ben.
- Oh, we got our first steal.
- Yeah!
- Now this cannot be stolen back by Ben.
He can't just steal it right back.
So, he has to choose something new from the table
or steal one of our gifts.
- I want the Banana Phone.
Give me the Banana Phone.
I think that's funny
and I think my kids would think that's really funny.
Its a good fit for me, 'cause it's so like,
goofy, but kind of practical.
- I'm gonna go back to the table and I'm gonna go
with the plaid box over there if you don't mind.
Oh, I love skittles, oh, it's not skittles.
I thought it was.
It looks like a Ziploc bag, but its made out of glass.
You can fill it up with skittles or nuts.
Alright, Danny's up.
- Alright, I feel likes there's always
a small thing in a big bag.
(laughing) Oh.
(meowing)
- [Everyone] Oh.
- What is it Danny?
- This is Not-a-Cat, Cat.
So this is a stuffed...
(laughing)
- Period, that's just, that's the end of the sentence.
It looks like a cat.
- [Danny] It looks like a cat.
- [Jon] But its not.
- [Danny] But it's not quite an animal.
- It's kind of like an inside joke, personified.
- Yeah, this is a classic Vat19 product.
- It's good if you don't want to commit
to getting a stuffed cat.
- It's a big commitment.
Alright, Kara's up, she gets to steal anything
that she sees, or open something that she cannot see.
- I think I want to go with the unknown.
I'm going with this.
Oh this is very light.
Oh...
(chuckling)
- She is not happy about it.
Wait, hold on.
You got a bunch of giant cockroaches.
- These are roach clips.
You can use them to clamp anything, I guess.
- So it's like a chip clip. - Chip clips.
- But it's a disgusting roach.
Think of the prank possibilities.
- That's true. - True.
- I don't think anyone would steal your food.
Its a deterrent.
- Karrie is up.
Karrie gets to choose anything she sees,
or open the last bag.
- Well I really love animals, and soft and cuddly things.
So I'm taking that.
- The roaches!
- No!
- I didn't think anyone was going to take my Not-a-Cat, Cat.
- Gimmie that Not-a-Cat, Cat.
- Okay now that's been stolen, so Danny can't steal it back.
- I do like the stealing aspect of the game.
Ben wants the Banana Phone.
He's not going to offer a swap up in the next round,
so I'm going to steal the Banana Phone.
That way the game can go on.
So you can decide what you wanna do Ben,
and I'm just going to sit here
and I'm going to sync this to my phone.
- Okay, while Danny's--
- You're gonna do it in front of me?
God, Danny!
- While Danny's pairing his banana, I'm gonna remind you
Ben, you cannot steal the Banana Phone back.
You can also not steal the Not-a-Cat, Cat.
- Ah, it's not-- - Ben's kids?
Yeah, no he's not bringing the Banana home.
(laughing)
- I'm going to steal that Play Dirt back.
- Stealing it back!
- Now he can do that,
because this is a new round so he can steal it back.
But anything could happen in the next round.
- I'm going to go with the unknown.
- Oh. - Okay.
- Oh-ho.
- [Jon] That's not a gift.
- It is a food item.
It is the Pimento Olive Almond,
so I believe it's chocolate, right?
- Yeah, so those look like olives.
They're actually chocolate covered almonds.
- Oh, good crunch, from the almond.
- Good crunch, yeah.
- That's really good.
- I want those.
- [Maddie] That's good quality chocolate.
- Kara's like please get rid of these roaches.
Everyone has a gift,
but now we're back to the crazy round of miracles.
This might not last a long time,
it all depends on Ben.
Ben gets to go again, since he was the first one.
He gets to switch if he wants to,
with anything he sees before him.
Or he could just stick with the Play Dirt
and it continues until everyone is satisfied
with what they have.
- I do like the Play Dirt,
but if for no other reason than spite,
- [Jon] Oh no, it's a good reason, it's a good reason.
- Look what you've done, you did it to yourself.
- Alright, give me that Banana Phone Danny.
- Oh, pew pew pew!
- Fine, I'm going to steal things just to steal them.
Give me them olives.
- I do like the Play Dirt.
- She does like the Play Dirt.
- Alright now Maddie's turn to either say I'm good,
or she could try to steal.
- I'm going to stick with this.
- Stick with the Play Dirt, alright.
- Game's over.
- Hey, I'm happy.
- I think we are all happy, except for Kara.
(laughing)
- Thank you guys for playing and thank you for watching.
