04x04 - Secret Samta 3

[bunniefuu]

- [Sam] Get ready for a Game Changer.

Tonight's guests,

you won't wanna touch his lucky charm,

It's Raphael Chestang.

On the naughty list for shoplifting,

it's Tao Yang.

And to making her in-person
Game Changer debut,

it's virtual champion, Carolyn Page.

And your host, me.

I snuck down your chimney
when you weren't looking.

This is Game Changer.

The only game show where
the game changes every show!

I am your h*, h*, host, Sam Reich.

I am joined today by these
three lovely little elves.

That's enough Christmas
references for this Jew.

- No, it's not.
[Tao and Raphael laughing]

- Now you all understand
how the game works?

- Yes.
- Yes.

- Actually this time, yes.

- That's right.

It's a special holiday game samer.

So without further ado,

Ash, could we please
bring out the gift boxes?

[Carolyn gasps]

- [Tao] Whoa.

- [Carolyn] Wow.
- [Raphael] Wow.

- Inside these boxes,

you will find handsome prizes

and ugly punishments.

[Tao gasps]
- Ooh.

- [Sam] You will take
turns opening the boxes

one at a time and
telling us what's inside.

You may tell the truth

or a lie

after which point your fellow players

will have the opportunity to steal.

Will they steal a punishment?

Will they let a prize slip
through their fingers?

We're about to find out.

- Oh my gosh.

- Raph.

[Raphael gasps]

It's time to open up

box number one.

- [gasps] Ooo!
- [Tao] Okay!

- Alright. Alright.

Let me find the first one. Okay.

- Take number one.

[anticipatory music]

- Oh, man.
- What is it?

- Oh, wow! These boxes are really nice!

[Carolyn laughing]

- The box is not the prize.

The box is not the prize.

- I want the box. I'll take it.

- Yeah, what's gonna
happen to the boxes after?

- I'll steal the box.

- It's magnetized, you see this?

It's very satisfying, like, click.

- Come on, that's good. Let
us keep the boxes, at least.

- Took a page from Apple.

[anticipatory music]

- Okay. A $30 gift
certificate to Tropicali.

- Is that a restaurant?

- The $30 gift certificate to Tropicali.

- Tropicali is a pretty nice restaurant.

- Ohhh!

- Oh, well, $30, that's
not going to get you much.

- Nah, that's one entree.

What's the vibe?

- I'm not saying whether or not
what Raph is saying is true,

but clearly the vibe of Tropicali

is right there in the name.

- Mm mm.

- Now I will say

the prizes do get better

- [Carolyn] Oh.
- [Tao] Okay.

and the punishments do get worse...

- Oh.

- As the game wears on.

Is that a prize I would
give as prize number one?

Perhaps.

Regardless, Raph has more
experience of this game

than either of the two of you.

- This is true.

- I don't think he would
have lied about that.

I don't think Ralph
would've lied about that.

- I don't think so either. You know what?

I am new to the neighborhood.

So, I'll steal.

- [Carolyn and Sam] Oh!
- [Tao] I will steal.

- Well, you'll have an
opportunity to steal, Tao,

as soon as I say

three, two, one...

- Steal.

- Tao steals.

And Raph, what was on that card?

- It was reset your phone
to factory settings.

[Carolyn and Tao wailing in shock]

- [Tao] Oh, my god!

- [Carolyn] You devious little elf!

- I got a lot of two factor
authorizations on my phone, Sam.

[Sam cackling]

- No!

- Now, Tao. This is a
gnarly a*s punishment.

I trust you as a technically savvy person

to have your phone backed up.

- Yeah, I have everything backed up.

- Raph, please go back to your podium.

- Sorry man.

- I would like to see you do it.

- Okay, great. Great. Great.

- [through laughter] Oh no.

- For me, it's settings...

- This is an Android.

- [Carolyn and Sam] Ohhh.

- Oh, here we go. Reset options. Oh, god.

[Raphael laughing]

- [Carolyn] Ugh.

- All right, here we go.

- I feel like we're off on
the wrong foot here, Tao.

[Carolyn and Raphael laughing]

- Here, zoom in on that.

- That is a hundred percent
authentic Game Changer.

- Oh my god.

- Whoa.

- Tao, gonna give you the opportunity

for the turnaround of a lifetime.

Would you open up box number two?

- Yes.

[Tao nervously breathing]

I'm already down so much.

[Raphael giggling]

[paper crumpling]

Okay.

Um.

God, I'm so bad at lying.

[everyone loudly laughs]

- [Carolyn] Or are you?

- Way to start!

- Uh, this is uh...

This is two tickets to the Hollywood Bowl.

- Okay. So, it's
definitely not two tickets.

- The flea market or just anywhere?

- No, no, no, no. The Hollywood Bowl.

You know, where the concerts are.

- Yeah, you know!

- [Carolyn] The entrance. Just to get in?

- It's two tickets to any event.

- Oh, okay.

- We can skip get past this part.

We know he's lying. The question is why.

Is he lying because

it's a punishment he doesn't want to get?

Or is he lying because
it's a really good prize

that he wants to keep?

You see what I'm saying?

- I actually think that

that might be what's written on there

and he's trying to fake us out right now

because he wants those tickets.

Because it could just be like an IOU,

like, we'll buy you tickets
to whatever concert.

- Right.

- Carolyn, that's a great
point that you make.

If someone were a good
liar saying I'm a bad liar,

not the worst strategy.

- Right.
- Yeah.

I'm going to give you
the opportunity to steal

in three,

in two,

in one.

- Steal it!

[Sam gasps]

Carolyn, you win a Go Bag.

- Oh, like a disaster bag?

- Like a disaster bag.

- Oh! I'll put it in my
car right after this!

- Everyone should have a Go Bag.

- This is my Go Bag.

[Everyone laughs]

This is all that's in it.

- Carolyn, could you please
open up box number three?

- [exhales] Okay.

Let's do it.

[sharply inhales and exhales]

[anticipatory music]

Okay.

It says on here...
- Uh huh.

- "One foot massage to Grant O'Brien".

- One foot massage

[Carolyn joins] to Grant O'Brien.

- That is a punishment.

- If Carolyn is telling the truth.

- [in a baby voice] Am
I telling the truth?

[Raphael and Sam laughing]

- [in a baby voice] Or not? I don't know.

- So if I take this,

Grant will show up and I will
have to massage his feet?

- I don't want to touch that sh*t.

- If that's what's on the card
why would Carolyn say that?

- That's a great question.

- Players will have the
opportunity to steal.

- Ah, f*ck.

- In three...
- f*ck.

- Two...One.

- Steal.

- Raph.
- Is it worse?

- You have to change into a Sia costume.

- I thought it might be worse.

[Sam cackling]

I thought it might be worse.

All right, let's do it.

- We want to give Raph
the opportunity to change

so we will be right back
after this transition.

[upbeat jingle]

Introducing now the new Raph.

- Yeah, this a new me.

- [Carolyn and Sam] Whoo!

- Raph, come over here.

Just let me get a quick look at you.

Keeping the sneakers! I like that a lot.

- [Raphael] That's what
I didn't get to change.

- [Tao] Nice legs.

- [Carolyn] Yeah!

- Thank you.

- Raph, it's nice to imagine

that the picture of the
two of us right now,

out of context,

[Raphael cackling]

will look like a fever dream.

Please return to your podium.

- Will do.

- This is a weird show.

- No.

- I think you look good!
I like the bangs on you.

[Raphael laughing]

It's cute.

- You know something Raph?
- Uh huh?

- I realize it's your go! Box number four!

- Okay! Well I definitely don't have

a vendetta against any of you guys.

[Carolyn and Sam laughing]

[anticipatory music]

[paper crumpling]

- Would you go ahead and read to us

what's on that card, Raph?

- Okay. One session in a float tank.

- Don't know if you've ever participated

in a float tank before,

but basically it is a sensory
deprivation experience.

- I've done a float tank
before and here's my hint.

My tip with a float tank is

you got to get more than one session

because you spend the first session

figuring out how to float.

It took me 45 minutes
just to figure out how

to not get the saline solution in my eyes.

- Got kind of an expert on our hands.

- Yep! [smacks lips] So...

Is Raph lying?

- [Carolyn] I think he's lying

and then it's a punishment,

but that's also not a
prize that I would want.

- It's not a great prize.

- The three of you will have
the opportunity to steal

in three, two, one.

Raph, what's on the card?

- It's a float tank session.

- [Sam] It is in fact,
a float tank session!

- Oh! Hahaha!
- Okay, that's fine.

- I'm going to love it.

- You're going to love it, Raph.

And you know what? Just
because Tao said that

I'll throw in an extra one.

- [Raphael and Carolyn] Whoa!
- You're welcome.

- You get an opportunity
to learn how to float.

- How about a couples? Me
and Raph in the same tank!

- Oh! There you go!

Raph, you may return to your podium.

Tao, you're up!

- [quietly] 'Kay.

- [Sam] Box number five!

[anticipatory music]

It's exciting. Isn't it? Every
new time a box is opened.

- [Raphael] Yeah.

- Again, holding it like a
sandwich he's about to devour.

- It's a-- You have to--

- Oh my, god! Tao! Come on!

- You have to... Yeah.

- Come on!

- Okay.

Someone else gets to pick their
nose and you got to eat it.

- I wrote that down during COVID.

That sounded fun and safe to me.

- Sam's a sicko.

- Again, the question
g*ng, is why would Tao lie?

- Clearly not what's written on there,

but I don't know if
it's a worse punishment

or something good.

- Players, I'll give you
the opportunity to steal

in 3, 2, 1.

- Steal.
- Steal.

- Oh.

Carolyn, I think you were
slightly quicker on the draw

than Raph.

- Oh! I hope it's not a punishment!

- What is it Tao?

- It's an air fryer.

- [Carolyn] Ahh!
- [Raphael] Nice!

- [Sam] It is an air fryer.

The most popular gadgets at the moment.

- Are you sad that you didn't get that?

- That's a very nice prize.

I'm happy for you that you won it.

- I'll make you some wings or something.

- Okay. Thank you.

- Carolyn, would you
open up box number six?

- Yes.

I will.

[anticipatory music]

[in singsong] What is it gonna be?

Oh!

I mean, oh.

[Raphael and Sam laughing]

- I wonder if she likes it.

- It's a one year membership
to Pure Barre North Hollywood,

which I already have.

Come along and do--

- Isn't that a gym?

- It's like a barre studio. It's great and

shout out to them.

- If I'm trying to figure
out whether it's a punishment

or a gift, I don't think it's in there.

I think you would go hard
either punishment or gift.

- [Sam] This is a new area?

- Yeah. This is a new area.

- To you, that feels like it's in between

a punishment and a gift?

- It's perspective,
that's fully subjective,

whether that's the punishment or a gift.

- Players I will give you
the opportunity to steal

in three, in two, in one.

- Steal. f*ck!

God f*cking dammit.

- Oh, Raph.

- What the f*ck?

- Oh, Raph.

- What is it this time?!

Wait, do what now?

- Raph, on the one hand, I'm
so sorry this happened to you,

[Raphael maniacally
laughing] looking like this.

But on the other hand,

this could not be better for the show.

[Raphael giggling]

Carolyn, Tao, I'm going to
need your assistance here.

- [Tao] Okay.

- [Sam] Let's put you
to either side of Raph

and Ash is going to hand
each one of you a color bag.

- Uh oh.

- [Sam] So the Color Run, Raph,

I'm not sure if you're aware of this.

Or do either of you know what it is?

- Yes, I think I know what this is.

- You mind explaining it for us, Tao?

- It's like a 5k and they
throw colored powder on you.

- I did it once and then was like,

"That's very stupid. I
would never do this again."

Cause there was color in my ears all week.

- So when I say go Raph,

Tao and Carolyn are going to

toss some powder over you.

- Okay.

- For let's call it 10ish seconds.

- Are you gonna use your hand?

I think I'm just going to
sprinkle it with the bag.

- I guess I'll use my hand.

- And a three, and a two, and a one, go!





















Wow.

[Carolyn clapping]

- Here's the thing about this game.

- [Sam] Yeah.

- It's not so hard to
figure out who's lying.

What's tough is figuring out why.

- Every time you move, there's
just a light haze of dust

[Raphael chuckling]
that just falls of you.

- Raph, I believe it's your turn.

- Oh, is it?

[everyone laughing]

Box number seven.

- Seven. Lucky number seven.

And I am feeling lucky.

[everyone laughing]

[anticipatory music]

Eat a spoonful of wasabi.

- Another punishment.

- Not the worst punishment in the world.

Could he be hiding an
even bigger punishment?

- I think he might be telling the truth,

but I think I've also thought that before

and am pretty easy to
gaslight and lie too.

So, I'm not sure. I don't f*ck' know.

- He, oh. Ralph has almost dead eyes.

[everyone laughing]

- Utterly...

Utterly glib.

Players, I'll give you
the opportunity to steal.

In three, two, [whispers] one.

- Steal.
- Steal.

- That was Tao's steal first.

- Raph.

- Eat a spoonful of wasabi.

- [Carolyn] Ohhh! f*ck you, Tao!

- [Tao] Oh no!

- Tao, if you could approach.

[Raphael loudly clapping]

[Carolyn, Tao and Raphael laughing]

- Is it high quality or
is it like cheap stuff?

- Chloe says it came out
of the tubes you squirt.

[Raphael giggling]

- You know, wasabi tubes.

Oh gosh. It looks like the Grinch's jizz.

[Raphael laughs]

- Okay, here we go.

- Oh!

[Carolyn laughing]
Whoo ha hee!

Ha!

- Agh!

- [Sam] h*! h*!

[Tao coughing]

[water bottle cracking]

- Not so bad!

- h*!

[everyone oohing in amazement]

Hot!

That was like watching coal walker!

- I think if you eat it really fast

and doesn't touch your
sinuses, it's totally fine.

Maybe I'll regret this later.

- I genuinely thought that would be worse!

- Yeah. I thought it'd be way worse.

- Tao. It's your go.

Would you please open up box number eight?

- Mhmm.

[Sam laughs]

Whoo 'kay.

[anticipatory music]

- Dinner for two.

- Tao!

- Dinner for two...

- Dinner for two. Let him finish!

- [Carolyn] Mhmm.
- Okay!

- [Sam] Dinner for two.

- At...

- Tropicali?

- [Tao giggles] At a...

four star Michelin restaurant.

- No, that's not on there.

- Don't they only go up to 3 stars?

- I don't know if that's true.

- He would list the restaurant on there.

- Do they only go up to three or four?

- They only go up to three.

I can't lie, but

maybe it was a misprint.

- Hahaha!
- Uh huh, uh huh.

Again, is he hiding something good,

or disguising something,

or making us think that
he's hiding something?

- We always know when Tao is lying.

[Carolyn, Raphael and Sam laughing]

- Don't know why,

and unfortunately this
mistake has misled us.

- Us?

[Carolyn, Raphael and Sam laughing]

- Yeah, I've got a Go
Bag and an air fryer,

like, I'm doing good.

- I am going to give you
the opportunity to steal.

In three, in two, in one.

- Steal.

[Sam gasps]

- Fast on the draw there, Carolyn.

Tao, what is on that card?

- Dinner for two at a
Michelin star restaurant.

- [Raphael and Carolyn] Ohhh!

- Great try, Tao!

- Oh, h*, h*! Tao!

- I love what you tried to do there!

- Thank you.

- Really elegant try.

- Great job.

- You're not getting any past me.

- Thank you, Raph. Thank you.

- [Raphael] That was really good.

- Carolyn. Would you do us a favor

and open up box number nine?

- Number nine.

Okie dokie!

[anticipatory music]

Get acupuncture on your face.

[Tao sharply inhales]

- See, this is another one.

I don't know whether this is a punishment

or a prize.

Acupuncture is a good thing.

- Acupuncture is a good thing.

- To get it on your face, I don't know?

Maybe that's a great thing!

- Would I offer this as a
punishment, is a good question.

- So last time

that happened, okay?

[Carolyn and Sam laughing]

Do you think it's a better prize?

- I don't know! That's what
I've thought every time.

- Does he look like a man you
should be taking advice from?

[Raphael cackling]

Have either of you had acupuncture before?

- Once as a, as a kid and
I don't like it. Not a fan.

- I'll give you the opportunity to steal.

In three, two, one.

- Steal.
- Steal.

He did it first.

- Oh no!

- It was Tao by a hair.

Carolyn, what's on that card?

- Unfortunately you are going to get

acupuncture on your face.

- Oh, right now?

- Right now.
- Oh my God!

- Players, I would like to introduce you

to our qualified acupuncturist, Ursula.

Come up on stage this way.

- [Carolyn] Yay.

- Thank you. Hi.

- Hi, Ursula.

- Hi.

- Facial acupuncture is good for what?

I'm assuming sinuses, that sort of thing?

- Oh for sure. And wrinkles.

- Oh wow!

- Acne.

- Oh!

- We do it for other conditions, as well.

Like stress and stuff like that, but.

- Okay, well, I'm very stressed right now

so that's very helpful.

- I'll do specific stress points.

- Okay, great.

- I'm going to have you
take a nice big breath in

and out.

[Tao shakily exhaling and oohing]

- Oh yeah. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

This is great.

- Okay. Another big breath in

and out.

- Oof.

- There you go.

- Oh yeah. Okay. Yeah.

[Raphael, Carolyn and
Sam stifling laughter]

Oh, this is relaxing.

This is great.

- So I'll do the sinuses, this time.

- Okay, okay. Great.

- Which might be a little sensitive.

- Ohhh, okay.

- Like right there.

- Ohhh, okay.

Okay!

- Sorry. Don't resist me.

- I'm not trying to.

[Sam laughing]

- I feel bad now that I--.

Did such a great job lying?

[everyone quietly laughing]

- Those are the most sensitive points.

And here's the last one.

- Okay, great, great, great.

- Close your mouth for a sec.

- Just relax!
- Just gently though.

Yeah, yeah.

[Carolyn squeaks in laughter]

- Whoa! Okay!

- Now Tao in typical acupuncture,

you would keep those needles in for,

Ursula, How long?

- For a relaxation treatment,

I'd recommend a half an hour.

- A half an hour.
- Oh, okay.

- If it's a facial, like
a cosmetic treatment,

definitely a half an hour.

- But we don't have that
kind of time, unfortunately.

- No.

- So we're going to take them out now.

- Yes.
- Okay. Great.

And so what happens if
you take them out now?

It's not relaxing at all, right?

[everyone laughing]

- Quite possibly.

[Sam guffawing]

I don't know, do you feel relaxed?

- No.

Sam, next time you do this,

you should get like, a, a neck rest.

- And that's a good note.

- Thank you. Just a little note from me.

Ugh! Whoo!

- You did it.

Thank you.

- You're welcome.

- Thank you very much.

- You're welcome.

- Raph.

- Yes.

- Could you please open up box number 10?

- Your walk, every time,
gets a little angrier.

[Raphael giggles]

[anticipatory music]

- Okay.

[anticipatory music continues]

A new pair of prescription glasses.

- Oh.

- Hm.
- Hm!

- Now I suppose the question is

which of you wear prescription glasses?

- We all wear prescription glasses.

- So this could be a good
prize for any of you.

- [Carolyn] Yeah.

- Hmm.

- I think that that's
probably a real prize

that he doesn't really care about.

- Lenses, too?

- Yeah. Lenses, too.

[laughter erupts]

- Well, ok, now I have questions!

- Okay, okay, okay, now, wait. Wait.

I think that this is a real prize

that he's trying to keep for himself.

- Uh huh. Uh huh.

- I could use a pair of
prescription glasses.

- [Tao] Okay, great.

- But I also do pity Raph at this moment.

[Raphael stifling laughter]
- [Sam] Mhmm.

- So I don't want to take from him.

- That's a fair point. The question is,

are you leaving him with a
punishment he doesn't want?

Players, you'll have the
opportunity to steal.

In three, in two, in one.

Raph keeps the card.
What's on the card, Raph?

- It's a new pair of prescription glasses.

- [Carolyn] Yeah! Yeah!
- [Tao] Way to go, Raph!

Very nice prize.

- Thank you.

[Carolyn laughs]

This is what winning looks like.

[everyone laughing]

- Tao,

would you please open up box number 11?

[anticipatory music]

[Tao inhales]

- Okay.

Mhmm. Mhmm.

- Mhmm.
- Mhmm.

- Mhmm.
- Uh huh.

- Uh huh.

- Uh huh.
- Yep.

- Ahh.
- Affirmative.

- Uh huh.
- Heh.

- Yes.
- Uh you are...

- Indeed. Indubitably.

- Hahaha!
- Uh.

- That's right.
- Mm.

- Correct-a-mundo.

- It's a stay at Big Bear.

- For how many people, Tao?

- It just says a stay at Big Bear.

- I got to say...

- This one was already a prize.

- That I have offered
stays in nearby locations

in California, in Game
Changer games before.

- Big Bear specifically.
- Mhmm. Yeah.

[Raphael cackles]

Well it does.
- I think you're lying.

And that this is some kind
of horrible punishment.

- Raph, what do you think?

- I think I'm probably trying
to steal most of these.

Cause how much worse could
it get for me at this point?

Some of them are going to be prizes right?

- How much worse can it get?
- Yeah, yeah.

- Might as well double the odds.

- How much worse can it get?

- Yeah, how much worse could it get?

- How much worse can it get?

- What the f*ck are you talking about?

[everyone laughing]

It can always, always be worse.

You can be on top of the world right now.

This could be your peak.

[Sam erupts into laughter]

- This could be my peak.

- I'll give you the opportunity to steal.

In three, two, one.

- Steal.

- Raph.

- Oh, no!

- What is it?!
- Nooo!

- Of all people.

- I don't even remember what you said.

- Of all people.

- What did you say the prize was?

- It's a stay at Big Bear!

- It's not.
- Okay. What is it?

- Post a sonogram to Instagram.

[Carolyn gasps]
[Raphael cackling]

- Now, Raph.

- This is pranking my mom.
That's who you're pranking.

- Awww!

- Of all the people to
pick this, in a way,

I'm glad it's you.

[Raphael laughing]
- Yeah!

- I am about to text you this image.

- Ohhh, boy, oh, boy, oh, god.

I'm just going to post
this with no caption.

- No caption. I like it. Elegant.

- All right. I did it.
- [Tao] You could "at" Sia.

[Carolyn and Tao laughing]

- Carolyn, would you open
up box number twelve.

- Lucky number twelve!

- Down to the last four.

- [through laughter] Oh god!

[anticipatory music]

- Thinking. Considering
pondering, strategizing.

- A...

garbage can

full of money.

- What's the feasibility of
a garbage can full of money

as a prize.

You know? I mean it's possible, but...

- Mhmm.
- Sounds uncertain over here.

- Yeah. I'm uncertain, too.

I'm just going to tell
you, Tao, I'm stealing it.

Whatever it is. I'm stealing it.

- I'll give you the opportunity to steal.

- Okay.

- In three, in two, in one.

- Steal.

- Raph.
- What is it?

- The newest iPhone!
- [Sam] The newest iPhone.

- Whoa!

- So after getting your phone covered in

yellow and orange chalk,

after posting an Instagram
of a baby that isn't yours,

you win a new phone.

- Yes!
[Carolyn laughing]

- Comin' back!

- Man, that boy comin' back!

[Carolyn and Raphael laughing]

- Before we go on, a quick recap.

Raph, what prizes have you won so far?

- One session in a float tank,

glasses,

I'm glad I didn't get new glasses now,

because I won those.

- There you go.

- And then newest iPhone.

- Tao.

- I won a acupuncture session from Ursula.

- Wow.

[Raphael loudly cackles]

- And I already used it.
[Raphael laughing]

- Carolyn.

- Michelin star dinner.
- Yup.

- Go Bag.
- Go Bag.

- Air fryer.
- Air fryer.

- I'm very excited about all those.

- Tao, you're the one
we're worried about now.

- I'm, I'm worried about it, too.

- I'm worried about you, bro.

- Raph.
- Okay.

- Would you go ahead and
open up box number 13?

- Yes. I will.

[lid smacks table top]

[anticipatory music]

Chug a gallon of milk.

- Now a gallon of milk is a lot.

- It's a lot.

- Also keep in mind

that Raph has been very consistent

in how truthful he's been so far.

However, you never know when
he's gonna switch it up.

- I think he had that locked and loaded.

- He did.

- I think that was a prepared answer.

I've seen people try and
do the gallon challenge

with milk and they throw up.

- Mmm!
- Every time.

- Would I have researched
this well enough to know that?

- No.

- Players, I'll give you
the opportunity to steal.

In three, two, one.

- Steal.
- Steal.

- That was Tao's.

- [Raphael] One month's rent.
- [Sam] One month's rent.

- Whoa!
- Whoa!

- Tao, of all the prizes to steal.

- Wow.
- Wow.

- Big time.
- My god.

- You came up big.
- That's a big prize.

- That's a trashcan full of money.

- Very nice.

- Wow, thank you.
- [Sam] Good job.

- Thank you.

- Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

- I have subjected you guys

to some pretty gnarly punishments.

The least I can do is
make things exciting,

here at the end.

Tao, I think that's you up.

[Tao clears his throat]

- Fourteen?
- Yes.

- Fourteen.

[anticipatory music]

- Very big box.

- Oh wow.

Oh man.

Holy cow.

[exhales audibly]

What's in the box, Tao?

- What's in the box?
- What's in the box!

- Says, "take someone's prize".

- So if I steal this,

I could take your one months of rent?

Which might strain our friendship,

but wouldn't strain my bank account.

- Yeah, that'd be real f*cked up.

- That is true. This is a tough one, g*ng.

Stealing that would mean

you could take a prize from
one of your fellow players

- Right.

- If this is true.

- Man, Tao, if that's a lie,

you won the best prize so far.

And then that's the best lie so far.

[Carolyn laughs]

If it's a lie,

that's a really good cause it
could absolutely be on there.

- I'll give you the opportunity to steal.

In three, in two, in one.

- Steal.
- Steal.

- That went a little faster to Carolyn.

What does it say, Tao?

- Give us back a prize you've won.

- Nooo!

- That is exactly your fear,
Carolyn. Exactly your fear!

- That's opposite! That's
opposite, Tao! You liar!

- That was an excellent lie!

- That was a fantastic lie!
- Thank you.

- How far has this man come?

[Raphael laughing]

From the worst liar we've
ever had on Game Changer

to the best lie we've
ever had on Game Changer!

Growth is what it's all about, people!

- Noo!
[Raphael laughing]

Carolyn,

I hate to ask this because,

I'm sure the injury is fresh.

Which price would you like to give up?

- I think I'm going to
give back the Go Bag.

- Last, but certainly not least, Carolyn.

Box number 15.
- Oh, sh*t. Okay.

[Raphael loudly exhales]

- All right. So that was a punishment.

Is the last one going to be a prize?

- Raph, trying to crack my psychology.

- Interesting!
- Interesting.

- I don't know if this is
a prize or a punishment.

- Okay. I'm just going to read it.

Join a protest in front of city hall.

- What?
- Hmm.

- [Carolyn] I don't know if there's like

a protest now that we have to go to.

- Is there some sort of twist ending

to this entire episode
that I have planned?

- It could be any kind of protest

and there's some protests
you don't want to join.

- That is very astute, Tao.

- That's true.

- Now, would Sam make us
go to a Proud Boys protest?

[laughter]

That's happening right now?

- Raph, your strategy so far:

quick on the draw,
already down, risk it all.

You still feeling that?

- No. No.

- Because now you have
somewhere to fall from.

- Yeah, because I don't
want to be a Proud Boy.

[Carolyn laughs]

I'll give you the opportunity
to steal, but no pressure.

In three, two, one.

Goes to Carolyn.

- Woo, baby! That's another month's rent.

- Whoa!
- Wow!

- Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!
- [Sam] Holy sh*t.

What a game!

Congratulations.

Tao and Carolyn, especially listen, Raph.

- Yes.

- You've been through
the ringer this episode.

- Yes I have.

- And I am sorry.
- Mhmm.

- In fact, I've written you a sorry note.

It's in your drawer.

[metal rustling]

- Sorry.

- It's heartfelt. It's heartfelt.

[laughing]

- A third month's rent!
- Whoa!

- That does it for us
here at Game Changer.

I am Sam Reich,

reminding you that the holidays are a time

to get together with family

and lie as a means of self preservation.

Good night.

[applause]
