-Guys, and I'm serious about this.
Please don't spoil this, okay?
But, if anyone played Wordle today, don't tell me what it is.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Don't tell -- You did play? Don't tell me.
I want to play Wordle right now. -Right now?
-Right now? -Did you do it?
-I didn't do it this morning. -Me neither.
Did you do it? -Yeah.
-Alright, you did it.
Alright, so, Higgins, you can't play.
-Z!
No. -You ruined it.
So, you know the game Wordle? [ Cheers and applause ]
If you don't know it, it's some website you got to go to,
some wordle.uk or something.
You guess the first five letters, right?
And if you're close, it gives you a yellow square.
If you're completely correct, they give you a green square.
-Right.
-But I think we can play together.
-Okay. -Right?
-Let's do this. [ Cheers and applause ]
-So, is my screen -- My screen will go up?
This is my screen, so I can move the mouse.
There you go right there. Okay.
-Roll the dice, move your mice. -Alright, here we go.
What's our first word?
What do you normally go with, Quest?
-I did "title" yesterday and I got it in three guesses.
-Title. I usually go with "loved."
-See, you're confident that a "V" is going to be in this word?
-Oh, that's interesting.
-I always do -- -That's in --
-I always do "arise"... -Arise.
-...or "adieu."
-Yeah.
-Because that's got a lot of vowels in it.
-Adieu?
-Mm-hmm.
-Nice. -Adieu?
Is that a word? -Yeah.
-Adieu. -I know ado, A-D-O, but adieu?
-Yeah, like -- -A-D-I --
-I bid you a fond adieu.
-Nice. -Fond adieu?
-Yeah.
I'm sorry. Fondue.
-Fondue would be a word.
That's too many letters. It's five letters.
Alright, so, let's --
What are you thinking? Title, loved, or adieu?
-I like his arise better. -Do arise.
-Alright, I'm going to do arise. Alright, here we go.
-It's "R," "S," a bunch of vowels.
You should be good. -Arise.
This is our first word we're doing.
Here we go.
-Ooh!
-Ooh! -Ooh!
Alright! Yes!
Alright, so, it's "A." We got "A" is definite.
That's a guaranteed letter. -That's exactly the right place.
-Yes, that's exactly right, and "E" is somewhere in there.
-Wow, no "R," "I," "S" in it? -No.
-Wow.
-Alright, so, now -- So it's "A" definitely.
And there's an "E" in there somewhere.
So it's "A," blank, "E," I'm assuming.
"A," "H" -- No.
Achoo?
-I thought the same thing. -What?
-I thought the same thing. -What do you think?
-But there's no "E" in "achoo."
-The "E" is in -- That's true. There's no "E" in achoo.
All? All?
App?
Aet?
An?
An sounds like something?
A-N-E?
-Awake?
-No, 'cause the E's in the wrong spot.
-Higgins, you can't -- -I'm just saying the rules.
I'm not saying you're close.
I'm saying the rule.
You don't want to guess that,
because the "E" -- You'd blow the "E."
-So, words usually end with "D."
-Ahead. -Ahead.
Let's try that.
Ahead.
-[ Imitates buzzer ]
-Oh! -Hmm!
-So it's definitely the second-to-last letter.
-Yeah.
-The "E" is definitely the second-to-last letter.
-Yes, that's correct. It has to be.
So the "E" is definitely the second, so --
-With no "R" and no "D" added? Wow. That's crazy.
-No "D" in there either. Ahead.
So it's "A," blank, blank, "E," blank.
E-R?
Adhere? -Nope.
We got a "R" right there in "arise."
I'm just saying.
The rules of the game. I'm not cheating.
-I almost want Higgins' microphone to be turned off,
just because...
-No, he's right.
-We've gotten this far. No one spoiled it.
-Alright. -He's right. He's right.
-I know he's right. He's right. He's right. He's...
Alright, ad -- ad --
-What could follow an "E" that's not "S," "R," or "D"?
-"T." -A "P"?
-"T." -"T"?
"T"? E-T?
-Phone home.
-I don't think it's E-T. It's "E..."
-"N." -"N"?
Oh. Again?
-Ah!
-No. [ Audience groans ]
-Sorry, sorry. Hey, sorry! Gosh! -Alright.
Oh, my gosh!
I'm just suggesting something. What?!
Alright, Quest, what do you think?
-Ah, damn! It's too much pressure.
-I know.
-I thought it was going to be "aware," but it's not, no.
-Awake? -Awake.
-Mnh-mnh
-No, the "E" has got to be before the --
It's in the middle.
-Annex.
-Annex? -Mnh-mnh.
-Geez. That's really tricky. I mean, what day is today?
Thursday? Should it be this hard?
-No, it was a hard one.
-This is too hard.
Quest, maybe just stop playing the drums and just focus.
-Yeah.
-Get your head in the game.
-Okay. -Come on!
-Annex? -Judas Priest.
-Annex?
On a Thursday? [ Laughter ]
Of course not! Annex?!
That's a Sunday word!
-It's cool. It's cool. -Annex.
-It's cool. I meant -- -It's not cool.
I'm so upset.
-We're progressing right now. We're good. We're good.
-Okay, okay, okay. Don't freak out.
[ Laughter ]
-Asked.
-Asked?
I got to zone out.
So, you got -- Look at those letters left.
So...
-"F." -"F."
I mean, now I'm hoping for spoilers.
-Alley! -Alley?
Oh, yeah, that feels like a Thursday.
Alley.
[ Drumroll ]
Ooh!
-Oh!
-[ Laughs ]
-Ashey? Ashey?
No, no, no. There's an "S" in it.
-Ashey? -No, no, no.
-Abbey? -Yeah.
-Yeah, "Downton Abbey." I feel that way.
I feel that -- It's England.
This thing is U.K. -- wordle.uk.
I think it's "abbey."
-Really?
Okay. -You don't think it's "abbey"?
-It could be.
I mean, isn't that a proper noun?
Like, are proper nouns allowed or...
-Abbey? -I mean --
-No, it's allowed.
-Let's try abbey. You guys agree? Abbey?
[ Cheers and applause ]
[ Drumroll ]
-Oh, I think it's really allowed.
[ All cheering ] ♪♪
-Whoo-hoo!
Yeah! Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
Thank you!
