Tonight, there's something very exciting happening on NBC.
For the first time ever, you can cry laughing at my show,
Ellen's Game Of Games, and then regular cry at This Is Us.
What more can you do on Tuesday night?
That's really what we want to do.
It's just a few hours away.
But right now, it's time for our final game in our Game of Games
tournament.
All week long, we've been playing games.
And today, someone is going to go home with $100,000.
[APPLAUSE]
So here's how it all started with the most epic--
it was the most epic game of Make It Rain.
In what game do you earn 20,000 pennies for passing go?
Monopoly.
Yes, that is right.
Good luck.
[SCREAMING]
You have literally pulled every one but the one.
G-A-M-E.
All right, please welcome Kristen.
[APPLAUSE]
Next, I tried to get her dizzy, but she literally
knocked the competition off her feet.
Take a look.
Last night's Game of Games was two hours long.
How long is a foot long sandwich?
Whoa.
[APPLAUSE]
12 inches.
That is right, so you are the winner.
[APPLAUSE]
All right.
Come on out, Joyce.
[APPLAUSE]
All right, we tried to cover her head and make it rain,
but she's still soaking wet.
My birthday is three weeks from Friday.
What month is my birthday in?
January.
That's right.
Whoops.
It's cold.
Oh, my gosh.
All right, welcome back, Nicole.
[APPLAUSE]
And next, we had someone dive in dizzy dash
like no one has ever dove before.
What is the full name for the city Philly?

That's right.
True or false, the world record for longest running
television show is 102 years?
[APPLAUSE]

All right, welcome back, Allie.
[APPLAUSE]
And yesterday, she proved she had the hottest hands around
and even invented a new game called Banana Scrabble.
Monopoly.
Scrabble.
Yahtzee.
Battleship.
Banana Scrabble.
You are the winner.
You're coming back tomorrow.
And here's Bethany.
[APPLAUSE]
I love the camaraderie right now.
That's really good.
OK, we're going to play it Make It Rain.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
(SINGING) It's raining bins.
Hallelujah, it's raining bins.
Amen.
I'm gonna grow up, and gonna let myself get absolutely soaking
wet.
It's raining bins.
All right, let me tell you how this works.
Hidden somewhere under one of those umbrellas
is $100,000 cash.
It's the biggest cash prize we have ever given away.
Unfortunately, under all the other ones, a lot of water.
Whole lot of water.
Today's questions are about game shows.
One additional rule.
Before you pull each umbrella, you must yell, Ellen,
make it rain, purely for my own enjoyment.
Hands behind your backs.
Jay-Z and Beyonce recently dropped a music video
called Family Feud.
What show coined the phrase, survey says?
Price is right.
No.
Shoot.
Family Feud.
That's right.
[APPLAUSE]
All right.
Pick an umbrella.
All right, hold on.
We're going to take a break.
And we're going to come back, and we're going to [INAUDIBLE]..
So that's the one you picked, right?
Yes.
You're the first one up.
Let's see if you're lucky enough to get it on the first one.
Make it rain.
[APPLAUSE]
OK, Joyce.
I did.
I made it rain.
Thank you for saying that.
All right, hands behind your backs.
OK, in the old days, if you wanted to fall in love,
you had to go on the Dating Game.
Now, what app tells you to get a date just by swiping right?
Twinder?
What?
Twin-- twin.
Tinder.
Yes, yes, Tinder.
All right.
Oh, god.
Come on.
Twinder is different.
Oh, Ellen, please.
All right, Joyce, say it.
Make it rain.
[APPLAUSE]
All right.
You can't be demure.
You just let her have that.
I know.
Fight for it.
OK, Make It Rain is one of my many games
we play on Ellen's Game of Games.
Name one other game we play.
Hot heads-- I mean, hot hands.
Yes, hot hands.
Bethany, say the phrase.
Ellen, make it rain.
OK.
[APPLAUSE]
All right.
Hands behind your backs.
I used to be the center square on Hollywood Squares.

You won $100,000.
[MUSIC PLAYING]
(SINGING) --absolutely soaking wet.
It's raining bins.
Hallelujah, it's raining bins.
Oh, my gosh.
Thank you so much.
You got $100,000.
And you didn't even have to get wet.
I know.
That's amazing.
All right.
That's fantastic.
What are you going to do with this?
I have two kids at home.
And this is just going to do so much good for them.
They're really little.
And it's hard to live out here in California.
It's going to put them in a good home.
And I just want to go on a vacation.
I haven't taken a vacation in--
for three years.
That's fantastic.
All right.
Well, congratulations.
You're not going home empty-handed.
Each of you is getting $1,000.
