There's a brand-new episode of my new show,
Ellen's Game of Games.
It's tonight on NBC.
We play a lot of fun games.
We give away a lot of money.
We meet incredible people.
Unfortunately, not everyone gets to move on to Know or Go.
But then I realized, well, I have my own show.
So I invited three people to come back for a second chance.
Let's play Know or Go.
Let's bring them out.
[DRUM ROLL AND APPLAUSE]
All right!
Hi, ladies.
Oh, boy.
It's so good to see y'all again.
Look, you get another chance, and it's not even-- yes.
Yes.
[APPLAUSE]
--not even as high up.
All right, Let's take a look at how you ended up here.
I'm a 61-year-old fan.
I am from Vacaville California.
I'm a real estate agent.
I love to gamble and party.
[APPLAUSE]
This is the final stool.
[CHEERING]
[CHIMING]
[APPLAUSE]
You were so close so many times, Lynn.
[LOW HORN BLOW]
[HIGHER HORN BLOW]
[SAME-PITCHED HORN BLOW]
[MUSIC - "SHAVE AND A HAIRCUT" ON HORN]
Patriots.
Ball?
[HONKING]
OK, Super Bowl.
Champions?
[HONKING]
Game.

[HONKING]
Sunday.
I don't believe this.
Thanks.
[BUZZER]
Football.
I was going to say that.
But you didn't say it.
Oh.
[SCREAMING]
[APPLAUSE]
All right.
Well, and here you are.
[APPLAUSE]
Here's how it goes, and we're going to go round-robin.
I will ask you a question.
I will start with you, Monica.
And if you know, you stay.
And if you don't, you go.
That's how it goes.
This game is all about redemption.
The last word, "redemption," has 10 letters in it.
List all of the vowels in the words "Ellen DeGeneres."
All the vowels.
E. E. E. E. E.
That's right.
[APPLAUSE]
Kerri, Ellen's Game of Games is on NBC Tuesdays at 8:00.
[CHIME]
Name something you should do on Tuesday nights at 8:00.
Watch Game of Games.
That is right.
[APPLAUSE]
Linda.
Yes.
You told me, and you told everyone,
that you love gambling.
And that you have a gambling problem.
Yes.
In blackjack, or aces high or low?
They are high, and they are 11 points.
I was a dealer in Tahoe.
I know this.
Or they could be low, too.
You can be one, or you can have--
it's your choice.
All right, finally, you said that.
Yes, it is high or low.
Yes.
It's high or low.
High or low.
Good.
Yes.
All right.
Monica, I love game shows.
I also love art.
What legendary artist produced the beautiful masterpiece
"Too Legit to Quit?"
I know it, I know it, I know it.
I do know it.
"Too Legit to Quit."
"Too legit--" MC Hammer!
That's right.
[APPLAUSE]
Kerri, if you know, you stay.
If you don't, you go.
Finish this book title.
If You Give a Moose a--
If You Give a Moose a Cookie?
Ah, Kerri.
Do they like--
I am afraid of heights, and I don't want to go down there!
I don't want to go down there!
This is so much lower than the one on the-- on the game show.
So you're actually really lucky, because this
is a-- stand up straight.
You don't want to go down like that.
Oh my God!
Yeah.
[SCREAMING]
OK.
Right now?
One word.
I'll tell you the name of it.
It's If You Give a Moose a Muffin.
I know that!
I knew that!
You say that after-- every time, you say afterwards.
You did that on the show, too.
"I was going to say that."
You got to say it when I ask you the question.
If You Give a Moose a Muffin!
Nope.
Oh my gosh.
OK, OK.
I'll see you later.
OK, OK.
[SCREAMING]
[APPLAUSE]
We're in the middle of one of the craziest games of Know
or Go I've seen all day long.
Let's get right to it.
The square root of 9 is 3.
In fairy tales, three is often a magical number.
Name three of the dwarfs from Snow White.
Oh, um, um.
Oh.
Smokey.
Um.
[LAUGHTER]
Grumpy.
Grumpy!
Grumpy.
Um, Pudgy.
[LAUGHTER]
Oh my God.
There was Smokey, there was Boozy, there was, uh--
there was, of course, the famous Pudgy.
Yes!
No, no, no.
But you know what?
I appreciate you, Linda, and I'm going to see you soon.
You're coming on down.
All right.
But they were Dopey, Sneezy Bashful, Grumpy, Sleepy, Doc,
and Happy.
[LAUGHS]
All right.
All right, Linda.
[SCREAMING]
[APPLAUSE]
You know that means you win.
Woo-hoo!
But--
[APPLAUSE]
I still need to drop you.
We don't have a ladder.
There's only one way to come down.
I can walk.
No.
There's-- there's no way.
I can walk.
I can climb down.
Nope.
I can climb down.
I don't want to fall.
Nope.
I don't want to fall.
Please, please, please.
It's going to be so fun.
You're going to see your friends.
Oh my gosh.
I don't want to do it.
No.
I don't want to do it.
Don't make me do it!
Your friends are down there.
Ellen, Ellen, Ellen!
Please, please!
I'll answer a question.
Let me answer a question.
All right.
OK.
Oprah could go from the Queen of Daytime
to the Queen of the White House.
In checkers, what do you say if you get a piece
on the other side of the board?
Checkmate?
Nope.
[SCREAMING]
[APPLAUSE]
[INAUDIBLE]
Linda!
It's "king me."
It was checkers.
Oh!
All right, for playing, all of you
are getting a 65-inch TCL Roku TV.
[CHEERING]
There you go.
[APPLAUSE]
And if you want to see a super-sized version of Know
or Go, tune in to my Game of Games tonight at 8:00 on NBC.
