A derecho.
Well, I'm gonna have to phone the friend, because I'm...
I'm praying to God she may know this.
Okay. You're calling Cynthia?
Yeah.
Cynthia Erivo. She's gonna be so pissed.
She's won a lot of awards, right? [ Laughing ] She has.
Do you know what awards she's won?
She's won all of them, the major ones,
except the Oscar.
Alright, let's get her on the line.
She's an EGO. See if she can win another one for this.
She's gonna be so pissed. Best Phone-a-Friend.
[ Laughter ]
Let's do it. [ Line ringing ]
Cynthia: Hello?
Hello, Cynthia?
Hello.
It's Jimmy Kimmel.
Oh, hello. Oh, God.
[ Laughter ]
You'd be surprised at how often I get that.
[ Laughs ] We are calling
from the set of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire."
I'm here with Lena.
Lena's going for $125,000 and needs help from you.
Okay. Go on. [ Laughs ]
Okay.
In just a moment, Lena's gonna read you
a question and four possible answers.
You'll have 30 seconds,
which includes the reading of the question and the answers,
so you don't have a lot of time.
You have to answer quickly.
Are you ready?
Ready.
Lena, are you ready?
I'm ready. [ Laughs ]
Again, we're going for $125,000 here.
30 seconds.
Time starts now.
You got 13 seconds.
Um, I'm gonna say...
the wind.
Wind, wind. I'm gonna say wind.
Wind. Okay, thank you.
[ Buzzer ]
[ Sighs ]
[ Laughs ]
Is weather one of her areas of expertise?
I don't know, man. [ Laughs ]
It's interesting, 'cause I was thinking dust cloud.
I've just never heard the term derecho.
It's a type of -- but, see, that's the other thing, too --
it's a type of rare storm.
It was a hairstyle in the '90s, wasn't it?
Derecho?
Oh, no. That's da -- the Rachel I'm thinking of.
[ Laughter ]
Um...
The word "rare" is interesting.
"Is a type of rare" -- That's why I like dust cloud.
That's probably why we never heard of it.
Okay, I don't want to risk it. I think that's what --
I'm not confident enough to risk the charity's money.
So that's where I think I'm at. I'm just not confident enough.
So I'm think I'mma call it.
That's your final decision? That's my final answer.
I'm too scared. Okay.
Now, I want to go to Rishi for a second.
Do you know? If you had remained,
what would you have guessed? What would you have said?
Would you have guessed?
Uh...
I mean, knowing everything I know,
I feel like I would've guessed wind, but...
Okay.
I mean, I would've went with that
because Cynthia, you know, sounded confident.
But my guess would have been dust cloud,
but, mm, I don't know if that's right.
In Spanish, derecho means "straight."
Straight? Okay.
Didn't know that.
A wall of strong wind.
It turns out that Cynthia was exactly right.
It was "A," wall of strong wind.
But I think -- you know what? That kills me.
There's nothing wrong with being careful
with other people's money. That kills me.
And she's going to kill me.
And you are walking away
with $64,000 for The Trevor Project. 00:04:04.453,00:00:00.000 [ Cheers and applause ]
