Hey! I'm high above The Kid's Room
up in the Lava Lounge.
This oversized world of wonders
is filled with all sorts of games
and gadgets galore.
I've super-sized
all my favorite childhood toys.
You can scale an extra-sketchy board,
slide under 90,000 gallons of lava,
or teeter-totter
to the four-in-a-row board
to solve the giant puzzle cube.
The top two teams will advance
to compete head-to-head
and try to cap the Volcano.
The team who does it first
wins $10,000 and the Floor Is Lava Lamp.[/i]
Let's see who's ready to run wild
in this big Kid's Room,
on Floor Is Lava.[/i]
Our first team is a trio
of improv teachers for at-risk youth.
-Say hello to...
-[all] Zip Zap Zop!
{\an8}"Zip Zap Zop" is a theater game.
We use it as a warm-up, as an icebreaker...
{\an8}If you've ever taken a theater class,
you have played this game.
The first person to start the game
is "zip."
They make eye contact with the person
that they will send their energy to.
-Zip!
-Zap!
Zop!
It's about eye contact,
being in contact with your teammates,
which will help us out in this game.
I would say my skill is climbing.
I love to climb. So, pretty agile.
{\an8}I'm the strategist,
checking in, like, where can we go?
What can we do? What are our options?
I am a marathon runner.
I've done one triathlon.
So, I have endurance and stamina.
I've got the balance.
This lava ain't gonna be nothing for us.
It's a piece of lava cake.
There you go.
[Rutledge] Here we got team Zip Zap Zop.
Improv is all about thinking on your feet.
Can they think on their feet
to get through this room quickly?
That is way more lava-y
than I anticipated.
Hey, I'm up here, guys!
-Hey, Rutledge!
-[Rutledge] All right, Zip Zap Zop.
Just like in improv,
nothing in this room is out of bounds.
Be sure to say "yes" to the exit passes,
'cause there's no way to leave the room
without them.
[Robert] There's the pass
below the balloons.
A pass up there, on the other side.
There's the other pass.
I can do that. I can do that.
And only the top two teams
go on to the Volcano.
So channel Robin Williams-level quickness
and agility.
-Are you ready?
-Yes.
[Rutledge] Then improvise this:
don't fall in, because the floor is...
[all] Lava!
[Zach] Oh my God.
It's like the ooze from Ghostbusters 2.[/i]
-Whoa! Oh God!
-This is where all that ooze went.
-So...
-Can you make that?
-I can make that. Yeah.
-[Robert] Okay.
[Zach] You can do this.
[Rutledge] Marathon runner Marta[/i]
looks ready to make that short jump[/i]
to the dresser.
-I think you can make it.
-One, two, three!
{\an8}-[Rutledge] And there... Oh no!
-[yelling]
{\an8}[Rutledge] Oh my gosh!
{\an8}How did that–?
That happened so fast,
we gotta see that again.
She misjudged the distance, came up short,
and was unable to grab the dresser.
This is what happens when a marathoner
tries to sprint.
With Zip gone, Zap and Zop
have a lot of work to do.
-I'm gonna go for this.
-Go for it.
-This is tricky.
-[/i]Grab the edges of the dresser.
-There you go! Nice, nice.
-Okay. All right.
-I think headfirst down into that tube.
-Coming through.
[Rutledge] A new role for Robert[/i]
entering that 25-foot slide.[/i]
Okay, this is good. This is doable.
[grunts]
All right, slide. Now what?
[Rutledge] Don't stop to think,[/i]
just keep moving.[/i]
I'll go this way, you go that way.
I'll meet you there.
[Robert] Okay.
-All right. So...
-All right.
-[Robert] You good?
-[Zach] I'm good, I'm good.
[Rutledge] Both of them have[/i]
a long way to go[/i]
if they wanna get to that exit.
This Kid's Room is not child's play.
[Robert] Oh boy!
Okay.
All right. Here we go. Here we go.
[Robert] Wait for it...
[Rutledge] Watch out, Zach.[/i]
You know what lives under every kid's bed...[/i]
[Zach] Whoo, made it.
[Rutledge] That's right, a monster[/i]
that you can use as a stepping stone
to get through the room.
[Zach screams]
Demogorgon!
It's the Stranger Thing.
[Zach grunts]
-Oh, bloody nose.
-[sci-fi music playing]
[Rutledge] Pretty good.[/i]
On a scale of one to 11,
"Eleven" being the telepathic kid
from Stranger Things,[/i]
I give it an eight.
[Robert] Oh boy...
-Can you climb that to get that pass?
-I don't know.
It's this little balance thing
that's super tricky.
You climb it like a rope in gym class.
-I didn't take gym class!
-[music warps]
What?
[Robert] I... was in the band.
Oh my God. Now you tell me!
[Rutledge] Not a lot of[/i]
upper body strength for us band geeks.[/i]
-Oh boy.
-[Zach] Come back to...
There you go! There you go!
[Rutledge] And he got it![/i]
Which means he can
get out of the Kid's Room.
Heck yeah, Robert!
Forget pumping iron.
Just curl some clarinets.
I'm gonna try this ladder.
Just like doing planks at the gym,
slow and steady.
[Robert] Take your time!
Slow and steady.
Oh, it's slimy up here too.
Oh God. Oh, the lava is everywhere.
[gasps] The pass, the pass.
The pass!
I did it! I got it.
I got the second exit pass!
[Robert] Heck yeah!
[Rutledge] If both Robert and Zach[/i]
can make it across the room,[/i]
their team stands a good chance
of making it to the Volcano.
-This is the zip line?
-[/i][Rutledge] Well, now it's a Zap line.[/i]
I'll do the hopscotch.
-You're gonna do the hopscotch?
-Yeah. Here we go.
[Rutledge] Yeah, here we go.[/i]
[epic music playing]
-[music warps]
-Got it.
[Rutledge] That's it?[/i]
I was expecting more.[/i]
-I'll try to get to the bed.
-Okay.
[Rutledge] And look at that![/i]
Captain Zach Sparrow[/i],
swinging in
like he's in his own action movie.
-[Robert cheers]
-See, Robert? That's how it's done.[/i]
I'll try to get to this cube.
I think it might help us get to the end.
Can you jump it?
-[Zach] This is a big jump.
-Okay.
[Rutledge] Robert's smartly avoiding[/i]
the pink tiles on the hopscotch.[/i]
They're booby traps.
-[Zach] Yes! With those long legs!
-Got it, got it.
-It's all right.
-Can you get there?
-I have to go over it.
-Okay. Yeah, yeah.
[Rutledge] Zach about to take that leap[/i]
onto the puzzle cube.[/i]
Not only is it a six-foot jump across
and four feet high,
but that bed is very unstable.
-This is a big jump, bro.
-That's a big jump.
This is a big jump. Do you wanna go first?
[laughs] Do I wanna go first?
Just give it momentum,
because this will stop you.
-[Zach grunts]
-[Robert] You got it, you got it! Yeah!
[Rutledge] He's made it![/i]
-[Zach grunts]
-Okay.
-I can do one of these in two minutes.
-Turn that.
[Rutledge] Weird time for a humble brag,[/i]
but whatever.[/i]
We got a step here.
[Rutledge] Now that will lock in place[/i]
and give you an extra step
towards the exit.
I think you can make it,
but I'm not the one jumping.
I wonder if I can just step from here.
You think so? The lava has an opinion.
-I'm gonna go for it.
-Okay.
[Robert] You got it.
{\an8}-[Zach grunts]
-Yeah!
Yes!
[Rutledge] And a successful curtain call[/i]
for Zach as he exits stage left.[/i]
[grunts] Yeah!
I gotta get there first.
You can totally make that!
I think you should go there, then there.
-And then there?
-Yeah.
[exhales]
-All right. Okay.
-I believe in you, man.
This is for Marta! Marta!
Oh boy. It's for Marta.
That's never a good sign.
Come on, boy. You got this.
Nice!
-Oh!
-Stay on! Stay on!
{\an8}[yells] No!
Why have you forsaken my team?!
[Rutledge] Zip Zap Zop lost its zip[/i]
when Marta exited stage down.[/i]
[both] No!
[Rutledge] Robert dropped the ball[/i]
and slipped into the lava,[/i]
along with his hopes of leaving the room.
But Zach knew the show must go on,
and got his team up on the board.
Will the one exit be enough
to take them to the Volcano?
Oh! There he is.
-Nicely done.
-Thank you!
Yes, and there they are.
Oh, guys, here. I...
I got you this. Maybe you could share.
Marta, Robert, tell me,
what's the lava like? I've never been in.
It is like a day at the spa.
You're not hurt, you're obviously alive.
Yeah. We got out alive. We made it out.
Well, let's see if our next team can get
more people through the room.
These three Fitness BFFs
have a long track record
of not letting anything
stand in their way.
They're a red light's worst nightmare.
Here come The Unstoppables!
[woman 1] Wow.
-[woman 2] Whoo!
-[woman 3] Wow.
-Let's look around.
-What are we gonna do?
So, basically what makes us Unstoppable:
{\an8}our attitudes, our drive,
our willingness to not give up.
{\an8}We are, like, the most unstoppable trio
that you can ever see.
We're the dynamic three.
{\an8}I am a former gymnast.
{\an8}For me, I could hold myself...
I have upper strength.
And Alana has long legs.
Yes, track and field,
long jump, triple jump.
So, lava ain't nothing but a thing.
[all] We're The Unstoppables
and we're ready to go, go, go!
Whoo! It's getting close! [laughs]
[Rutledge] Hey, Unstoppables!
-[Unstoppables] Hey!
-How you doing?
All right. Let's examine the space,
devise a route,
and don't stop till you reach the exit.
And remember, the faster
you grab an exit pass the better,
because they can be a tiebreaker.
Now, only the top two teams
will meet on the Volcano.
So move with speed and purpose.
Okay, you're going that way,
we're going that way.
Okay.
One final rule:
don't fall in, because the floor is...
[all] Lava!
[Alana] Okay! Let's go!
[Chanel] Oh my gosh. Okay. All right.
-Okay, Amirah.
-Okay. All right.
-I got this one.
-You got it?
-Yep. Okay.
-Take your time with...
[Chanel] Okay.
[Rutledge] Fitness fanatic Chanel[/i]
said her specialty is upper body strength.[/i]
She'll need it
to cross the wobbly Newton's Cradle.
-She looks a little unsteady.
-[Chanel] All right!
[Alana] Okay, Amirah.
[Rutledge] Former gymnast Amirah[/i]
sticks the landing on the dresser.[/i]
-That was a tough jump.
-[Robert laughs]
[Rutledge] That's only a two-inch foothold[/i]
on the extra sketchy board.[/i]
But Alana is holding on.
-[Alana] You guys good?
-Yeah!
[Alana] Okay.
sh**t.
[Rutledge] Alana's the one to watch.[/i]
She's the strongest athlete on the team.[/i]
If she can just reach
those track-star legs across to the...
{\an8}Oh no!
{\an8}[yelling]
{\an8}There goes Alana.
{\an8}Oh my gosh, let's see that again.
Track star Alana
perfected a lesser-known event,
the wrong jump.
And the Unstoppable trio
is now down to a duo.
-[Amirah] Who fell?
-She doesn't know!
She doesn't know,
'cause she was in the tunnel.
-Amirah, did you fall too?
-No.
-What happened?
-Congratulations, baby, you made it.
What happened? Wait, where'd she go?
[Rutledge] Well, Amirah,[/i]
let me sketch it out for you.[/i]
[Chanel] Oh no!
She gone.
[Amirah] Oh man.
[Chanel] I'm here,
but I don't know what to do.
[Rutledge] Chanel can't move[/i]
the teeter-totter[/i]
because the weighted stuffed monkey
is holding it down.
Hm.
If she only had
a lifelong best friend to help.
I've known Amirah for ten years plus.
No, it's over 20.
Over 20? Okay, good to know.
I've been knowing Chanel since we were
little bitty boppers in the sandbox.
Everything we do, we're together.
There's not one without the other.
Let's go, Amirah.
[Rutledge] Despite being down a member,[/i]
you guys are still sticking together.[/i]
And you'll need to, because both of you
will need exit passes
if you want a shot at besting Zip Zap Zop.
[Zach laughs]
She's like, "Excuse me."
[Rutledge] First, Amirah, you have to[/i]
knock that weighted monkey off your back.[/i]
And by "back," I mean teeter-totter.
[Amirah] Hey!
-Okay, hold on.
-[Chanel] I wonder if I can jump on it?
-[Amirah] Hold on, do not.
-Okay.
[Rutledge] Not a good idea[/i]
to jump from there.[/i]
Unless you wanna catapult your BFF
across the room.
Oh!
They're making me so nervous.
Come on! I need you. You cannot leave me.
[Chanel laughs] I don't...
-[Amirah] I'm coming.
-I can do this.
Hold on. Grab my arm.
Front.
-[Chanel laughs]
-Come on. Get up on that now.
Oh! Look at that teamwork!
You want me to climb over you?
No. Hold on. I'm gonna come back...
[Rutledge] A visual analogy here,[/i]
as long-term friendship
is a bit of a balancing act.
How are they going to do this?
-This is serious.
-[/i]Yeah, it is. We got this though.
-Stay down.
-Okay.
-I'm about to get... Stay down!
-Okay.
-I gotta get this.
-Go ahead.
-Don't move.
-Stay here. I'll wait till you get there.
[Rutledge] Look at that![/i]
A little teamwork and ingenuity
lifted her right up to that exit pass.
No climbing necessary.
Hold on... Whoo!
From the teeter-totter,
she has multiple ways
she can leave the room.
All right, I'm about to go here.
So come down.
I'm gonna jump this way. All right.
Okay. I'm gonna figure it out.
[Rutledge] There we go![/i]
"Find the piece to release."
Where is the piece?
[Rutledge] If Amirah wants[/i]
to scale the four-in-a-row board,[/i]
Chanel will need to
pull the piece to allow her to climb.
And it is a Kid's Room,
so that spare piece
certainly isn't in the box.
-You probably gotta go that way.
-Yeah.
-[Amirah] You good?
-[/i]I don't have a choice.
[Rutledge] You don't have a choice,[/i]
like when a best friend
asks you to help them move.
[Amirah] Come on. You got it.
-
Oh!
-[Amirah] Come on, girl. You got it, baby!
[Amirah] Yes!
[Rutledge] Those arms are unstoppable.[/i]
[Chanel] I got it, baby.
Come on, babe. We're on a time limit.
Don't rush, but let's...
We got it, we got it.
-[Chanel] It's a bit to go further.
-A bit. Come on.
-Come on.
-My arms are getting tired.
-Come on.
-Okay.
Okay. Come on, come on...
-[Chanel] Okay.
-Yes! Come on, girl. Whoo!
[Chanel] I got it, baby, I got it.
[Amirah] You gotta help me
get over this wall.
[Chanel] Okay.
[Amirah] Come on.
You gotta come over here. Don't forget.
You gotta come help me.
[Rutledge] Chanel going the distance[/i]
to save Amirah.[/i]
And she's still got a long way to go.
-[Amirah] Yes! Come on!
-[Rutledge] Yes![/i]
-Oh, the piece. You seen a piece?
-[Amirah] All right. Come on.
[Rutledge] Here we go.[/i]
Going for the leap to the beach ball.[/i]
Here we go. Here we go.
[Rutledge] Oh no!
{\an8}[Amirah] No!
{\an8}[Rutledge] Oh, Chanel is down!
Chanel tumbles over the ball,
ends up all wet,
and gets burned in the process.
Worst beach day ever.
But now it's on BFF,
best final friend, Amirah[/i]
to get out of the room faster than you,
Zip Zap Zop.
Okay. I think I can do it.
I think I can jump over here.
Oh my gosh.
[Rutledge] That block is a six-foot jump,[/i]
and it has a height of nearly four feet.[/i]
[Amirah groans]
[Rutledge] You can do it! Come on, girl.[/i]
This is not gonna work.
[Rutledge] Dip into all those gymnastics[/i]
you learned as a kid.[/i]
-[Amirah groans]
-[Rutledge] {\an8}Oh, and Amirah is down![/i]
{\an8}[groaning]
[Rutledge] The vault was just too high[/i]
for Amirah.[/i]
A classic late-release, high back mount,
with a two-hand back roll
from our gymnast.
However, judges are going to
have to penalize her for that dismount.
No splash, though.
She should consider diving.
[Rutledge] And with that,
The Unstoppables have been stopped.
That means you guys are
moving on to the Volcano!
[cheering]
Although The Unstoppables didn't
get anyone out of the room,
Amirah did pick up an exit pass,
setting the bar, a very low bar,
for our next team.
Unstoppables.
-With a name like that, I thought fierce.
-Tell me about it.
-And y'all were fierce.
-Still fierce.
-It's just... stoppable, turns out.
-[Amirah] Yes.
[Rutledge] You guys got one exit pass.
So you have a shot here,
but Zip Zap Zop got one person through,
so they're going on to the Volcano.
-But...
-[Unstoppables clapping]
...this next team,
it all comes down to them.
What do a tricycle and our next team
have in common?
They each have a vital third wheel
that's absolutely crucial
for maintaining balance.
Here's our last team,
The Roommates: Luke and Maria.
Oh, and you too, Esteban.
[man] We all met in college.[/i]
{\an8}They started as roommates first,
and then I was introduced in LA.
{\an8}And now, this is my wife.
We got married, because we fell in love.
{\an8}We don't have a place to stay, and Esteban
so graciously has lent us his couch.
{\an8}-[Esteban] I'm the couch and third wheel.
-[laughter]
{\an8}-[Maria] Yeah.
-[Luke] We love him.
Aw! I love you.
-[both] Slap tap.
-[Maria] Ew!
[laughter]
Living together,
we have outstanding chemistry.
Esteban knows every trip
I take to the bathroom.
Maria knows every thought in my mind...
Mm! Look at them dimples!
...and I know what their deepest darkest
secrets are.
So, we definitely have an advantage
because we know each other
very, very well.
[producer] If someone falls in,
who will it be?
-I know!
-I thought we all knew!
Yup. Maria!
-[Luke laughs]
-No! No! I am not gonna fall.
-[Luke] I thought it was me!
-Wait! We agreed it was him!
-Oh, we did?
-Yes, you're back to the...
-That's why I need my own space.
-My inner thoughts came out.
Oh my God! It's so cool.
How you guys doing?
[all] Hey!
All right, Roommates. House rules:
review the room
and plot your courses carefully.
In order to advance to the Volcano,
you'll need to get at least one person
out of the room,
or grab an exit pass
faster than The Unstoppables did,
because they are on the bubble.
And Roommates? One final rule:
don't leave your wet towels on the floor
because the floor is...
[all] Lava!
Esteban, that still you, bro?
I don't think I can reach this.
I'll try this.
-You got this one here, Esteban?
-Yup!
-Anything we can do for you?
-Oh man. This is so slippery.
Try holding on to the pole, like the door.
[Luke, Maria] No!
[Rutledge] Esteban is gone!
{\an8}-[Luke] Oh my God!
-[Maria] What happened?
Oh wow!
The same thing as Marta.
He might have gone in even quicker.
Hope he paid his portion of the rent
before that jump.
[Luke, Maria] No!
Well, Esteban, you said that I was gonna
be the first one out.
-And who's the first one?
-[Luke chuckles]
Okay. Well, we only need two exit passes.
Even one exit pass faster than you
would put them in the Volcano.
-You wanna go first or me?
-I'll go.
All right, I made it.
That's my hot wife.
She's way hotter than this lava.
[Rutledge] Oh, getting spicy[/i]
with Esteban gone.[/i]
If you come over here while I go,
and sturdy it up?
[Rutledge] Aw, look at 'em. The newlyweds.
You can tell they're newlyweds, right?
'Cause a couple of years in it's,
"You go down there.
I'll go this other way."
-He's holding it.
-[Rutledge] "You'll be fine."
-[Luke] How do you feel?
-[Maria] I feel good!
You look good!
[Rutledge] Luke's basically[/i]
got married life down to a science,[/i]
holding things for your wife,
and complimenting your wife.
[Maria grunts]
-Need to get closer?
-Hold on.
[Rutledge] It's nice that Luke[/i]
is holding that,[/i]
but what would be really helpful to Maria
is if he made his way
over to the teeter-totter
to knock that stuffed monkey off
to allow her to move forward.
Oh, crap!
We can't grab it
until the monkey is moved?
Yeah. Do you wanna go that way?
Yeah. You're gonna hang out there?
-Yeah.
-[Luke] I like not this.
[Maria] Yeah, well, you have long legs.
You can do it.
[Rutledge] Where are you going?
-He's gotta go around.
-He's gotta go to the slide.
You lowered your wife out there,
and now she's stuck.
[Zach] Good luck, honey.
You're doing great. Look at that strength.
[Maria] Good job, good job,
good job, good job!
[Luke] I like not this.
[Rutledge] He likes not this?[/i]
Star Wars fan much?[/i]
[Maria] Just hold on. In the bed, yeah!
-[Rutledge] Oh!
-[teams groaning]
[Maria] Wait. Oh my God!
[yells]
-That's a Demo... How you call it?
-[Maria] Demogorgon.
It's a Demogorgon.
[Rutledge] There are Stranger Things[/i]
hiding in here.[/i]
Stranger Things, the Netflix show?[/i]
It just hangs around. I dunno why.[/i]
-Use the Demogorgon!
-To go where?
To go over there! Yeah!
-But the exit pass is up there!
-Go! Yeah! Go for it.
[Rutledge] Yeah. Go for it, Luke.[/i]
Both of you still need an exit pass.[/i]
Are you sure I shouldn't take a nap?
[Maria] No.
-Pillow fight?
-[Maria] No, leave it there.
-I'm stalling. I'm terrified.
-[Maria] Luke! Go for an exit pass!
-I don't trust this.
-Well, you're gonna have to.
Hold on. I can get my torso
on top of that box.
Then do it!
I'm about to hit that YOLO.
Come on, Kenny. Let's go, Kenny.
Whoo!
[grunts] Let's go.
-[Rutledge] Oh!
-Let's go, baby!
[Rutledge] Does he make it?
Can he hold on?
[Rutledge] Yes!
Look at that.
Luke made the leap, and he survived.
Ooh! That was a lot of man
flying through the air.
-That was.
-Yeah, Luke.
[Luke yells]
[Rutledge] Scream of triumph or terror?[/i]
You decide.[/i]
Okay, I can make that jump,
provided I don't slip.
I am not trusting this.
Baby, I'm going for it, okay?
-Just go for it, just go for it.
-For Esteban.
[Rutledge] Maria encouraging her husband[/i]
to make the leap.[/i]
Just like they did the whole time
they were dating.
[Maria] Okay, go for it,
go for it, go for it!
-[Rutledge] Oh! He makes it!
-[Maria] Oh my God! Yes, yes, yes!
-That's what I'm talking about, baby!
-Okay! Release it!
-[Luke] Where?
-It says right there. Find to release.
I can't climb
till the pieces are released.
We're trapped, baby.
-We're trapped?
-Yeah.
[Rutledge] And finally,[/i]
realization setting in on the newlyweds,[/i]
that not only are they
stuck together for life,
but they're stuck in front of
the four-in-a-row,
because the piece to release
and the exit pass are on the other side.
Remember, they only need to get
one exit pass faster than Amirah did.
He's stuck, and she's stuck,
'cause neither of them are at
the right spot to get that exit pass.
-I know!
-Right!
Can you go like this to the monkey?
[Maria] Oh dang.
[Maria] Dang it!
Do you want to sacrifice yourself,
knock over the thing, so I can go in here?
Yeah, that might work.
I could try to step on that
to knock it off.
-Okay.
-[Chanel] What is he doing?
-It's crazy if you think about it...
-He's gonna save his wife.
-He's gonna save her! Oh!
-[Amirah laughs]
Go! Luke, you gotta do it now,
you gotta do it now.
All right.
[emotional orchestral music playing]
-I love you.
-Babe, well, just be careful.
-[Luke] All right.
-Oh no!
[operatic singing]
[Luke] Oh!
[yelling]
[cheering]
{\an8}No!
[Rutledge] Luke sacrificed himself[/i]
{\an8}for the marriage,[/i]
{\an8}so Maria could live on and prosper
on the teeter-totter.
[operatic singing]
[Rutledge] It's just like[/i]
the end of Titanic,[/i]
except Jack could've survived.
That door was huge, Rose.
Huge.
Ladies, the smiles are getting bigger.
If Maria falls
before getting an exit pass,
y'all are moving on to the Volcano.
[cheering]
One, two...
Gosh dang it.
[Zach] Is that gonna teeter
when she gets to the other side?
-[Rutledge] For sure!
-[Maria squeals]
Dang, dang, dang.
No. Please, Maria, please.
Listen. People doubted me,
and I'm the last one standing.
[Rutledge] She's gotta get that exit pass.
Ooh. Ooh, if she gets that before you...
I cannot even reach that.
Can I?
[grunts]
Nope.
[Rutledge] She's only got
a few more seconds.
[teams yelling]
{\an8}[cheering]
{\an8}Just like that, The Roommates are evicted.
With no one getting out of the room,
and zero exit passes,
plus all this lava damage?
Looks like they're not getting
their security deposit back either.
With their one exit pass,
that means The Unstoppables are moving on
to face off against Zip Zap Zop
at the Volcano.
[cheering]
Just like that, the whole game can change.
Who's gonna win that Floor Is Lava Lamp
and $10,000?[/i]
Let's get to the Volcano and find out.
[dramatic music playing]
[teams cheering]
[Chanel] Gosh, look at that thing.
Spitting.
[Rutledge] All right!
[cheering]
Welcome to the Volcano.
[whooping]
The top of that Volcano
is where you each need to be.
Both teams will have to make their way
across the roof to the base.
Once you climb to the top,
each member of your team
must cap the Volcano with their rock.
The team that caps their Volcano
the fastest will win $10,000!
[whooping]
[Rutledge] And the Floor Is Lava Lamp.[/i]
There is one final rule,
and it's the most important:
Don't fall in because the floor is...
[all] Lava!
-[Rutledge] Good luck! Go for it!
-[whooping]
-Here we go.
-[Chanel] Swing me.
-[Zach] Whoa.
-[Robert] Oh.
[Rutledge] Zach and Chanel
leading the charge for their teams.
[Zach] Okay. Yep. Come on.
Come on, Marta. We got it for you. Ready?
[Rutledge] Alana is on the rooftop,
and The Unstoppables off to an early lead.
-Marta still above the lava.
-There you go!
Go, go, go! I got you, Robert. I got you.
[Rutledge] Ooh,
Unstoppables making headway!
Come on, baby!
-[Zach] Go, go, go!
-[Rutledge] Zip Zap Zop lagging behind.
-[Chanel] Okay, jump!
-[Amirah] I gotta get up.
[Alana] I'm coming. You good?
-[Amirah] Come on!
-[Alana] Okay.
[Rutledge] There we go, Unstoppables!
Yeah!
All right, Unstoppables have made it
to the Volcano.
-[Rutledge] Oh! Have a seat!
-[Robert] Wait!
[Rutledge] Unstoppables
at the base of the Volcano.
Now they've got to climb
and get those rocks.
All three members of Zip Zap Zop
have to get to the base
before they can begin their climb.
Yeah! There we go!
Zip Zap Zop
all at the base of the Volcano.
They have got to hurry, though.
Unstoppables making big moves here.
Trying to get up to that first landing.
[Alana] Come on! Come on, y'all got it!
[Rutledge] Zach catching up
using those rock climbing skills.
[Alana] Good job, you got this!
Oh, we have got a race on our hands now.
Zip Zap Zop has the rope down.
Unstoppables passing the rope down.
-[Zach] Really dig your foot in!
-[Rutledge] It is neck and neck!
Amirah and Zach each have their rocks.
[Chanel] Amirah! You got it!
[Zach] One in!
[Rutledge] Zach places the first rock
for Zip Zap Zop!
-[Alana] Did you get the rock in?
-Yes!
[Rutledge] Amirah gets her rock in!
Oh, it is all tied up.
[Alana] Got it, Chanel? Come on.
Keep the... Come on, y'all, come on!
[Rutledge] Chanel cannot find her footing
on that slick surface.
-Hurry up, you guys!
-There's some up here too...
[Rutledge] Robert picked up his rock.
[Amirah] Get to the... Come on.
[Zach] Put it in!
Zip Zap Zop got the second rock in!
Marta, easily making the climb.
Can she redeem herself for her early exit
by getting that third rock in?
Oh, Unstoppables are holding on
for dear life.
Marta in position, can they do it?
Can they do it?
-[cheering]
-[Rutledge] Yes, they did!
Good job! Congratulations, Zip Zap Zop!
[cheering]
Take that, Volcano!
Unstoppables have been stopped again.
Great effort, ladies,
but it's time for you to slide
unstoppably into the lava.
[slowed speech] Oh no!
[slowed speech] No!
[slowed shouting]
-Congratulations, Zip Zap Zop!
-[whooping]
You guys just won $10,000!
[chanting] Zip Zap Zop!
Not only did you win $10,000,
guess what else?

[Amirah] Yes!
[Rutledge] Those arms are unstoppable.[/i]
[Chanel] I got it, baby.
Come on, babe. We're on a time limit.
Don't rush, but let's...
We got it, we got it.

You gotta come over here. Don't forget.
You gotta come help me.
[Rutledge] Chanel going the distance[/i]
to save Amirah.[/i]
And she's still got a long way to go.
-[Amirah] Yes! Come on!
-[Rutledge] Yes![/i]
-Oh, the piece. You seen a piece?
-[Amirah] All right. Come on.
[Rutledge] Here we go.[/i]
Going for the leap to the beach ball.[/i]
Here we go. Here we go.
[Rutledge] Oh no!
{\an8}[Amirah] No!
{\an8}[Rutledge] Oh, Chanel is down!
Chanel tumbles over the ball,
ends up all wet,
and gets burned in the process.
Worst beach day ever.
But now it's on BFF,
best final friend, Amirah[/i]
to get out of the room faster than you,
Zip Zap Zop.
Okay. I think I can do it.
I think I can jump over here.
Oh my gosh.
[Rutledge] That block is a six-foot jump,[/i]
and it has a height of nearly four feet.[/i]
[Amirah groans]
[Rutledge] You can do it! Come on, girl.[/i]
This is not gonna work.
[Rutledge] Dip into all those gymnastics[/i]
you learned as a kid.[/i]
-[Amirah groans]
-[Rutledge] {\an8}Oh, and Amirah is down![/i]
{\an8}[groaning]
[Rutledge] The vault was just too high[/i]
for Amirah.[/i]
A classic late-release, high back mount,
with a two-hand back roll
from our gymnast.
However, judges are going to
have to penalize her for that dismount.
No splash, though.
She should consider diving.
[Rutledge] And with that,
The Unstoppables have been stopped.
That means you guys are
moving on to the Volcano!
[cheering]
Although The Unstoppables didn't
get anyone out of the room,
Amirah did pick up an exit pass,
setting the bar, a very low bar,
for our next team.
Unstoppables.
-With a name like that, I thought fierce.
-Tell me about it.
-And y'all were fierce.
-Still fierce.
-It's just... stoppable, turns out.
-[Amirah] Yes.
[Rutledge] You guys got one exit pass.
So you have a shot here,
but Zip Zap Zop got one person through,
so they're going on to the Volcano.
-But...
-[Unstoppables clapping]
...this next team,
it all comes down to them.
What do a tricycle and our next team
have in common?
They each have a vital third wheel
that's absolutely crucial
for maintaining balance.
Here's our last team,
The Roommates: Luke and Maria.
Oh, and you too, Esteban.
[man] We all met in college.[/i]
{\an8}They started as roommates first,
and then I was introduced in LA.
{\an8}And now, this is my wife.
We got married, because we fell in love.
{\an8}We don't have a place to stay, and Esteban
so graciously has lent us his couch.
{\an8}-[Esteban] I'm the couch and third wheel.
-[laughter]
{\an8}-[Maria] Yeah.
-[Luke] We love him.
Aw! I love you.
-[both] Slap tap.
-[Maria] Ew!
[laughter]
Living together,
we have outstanding chemistry.
Esteban knows every trip
I take to the bathroom.
Maria knows every thought in my mind...
Mm! Look at them dimples!
...and I know what their deepest darkest
secrets are.
So, we definitely have an advantage
because we know each other
very, very well.
[producer] If someone falls in,
who will it be?
-I know!
-I thought we all knew!
Yup. Maria!
-[Luke laughs]
-No! No! I am not gonna fall.
-[Luke] I thought it was me!
-Wait! We agreed it was him!
-Oh, we did?
-Yes, you're back to the...
-That's why I need my own space.
-My inner thoughts came out.
Oh my God! It's so cool.
How you guys doing?
[all] Hey!
All right, Roommates. House rules:
review the room
and plot your courses carefully.
In order to advance to the Volcano,
you'll need to get at least one person
out of the room,
or grab an exit pass
faster than The Unstoppables did,
because they are on the bubble.
And Roommates? One final rule:
don't leave your wet towels on the floor
because the floor is...
[all] Lava!
Esteban, that still you, bro?
I don't think I can reach this.
I'll try this.
-You got this one here, Esteban?
-Yup!
-Anything we can do for you?
-Oh man. This is so slippery.
Try holding on to the pole, like the door.
[Luke, Maria] No!
[Rutledge] Esteban is gone!
{\an8}-[Luke] Oh my God!
-[Maria] What happened?
Oh wow!
The same thing as Marta.
He might have gone in even quicker.
Hope he paid his portion of the rent
before that jump.
[Luke, Maria] No!
Well, Esteban, you said that I was gonna
be the first one out.
-And who's the first one?
-[Luke chuckles]
Okay. Well, we only need two exit passes.
Even one exit pass faster than you
would put them in the Volcano.
-You wanna go first or me?
-I'll go.
All right, I made it.
That's my hot wife.
She's way hotter than this lava.
[Rutledge] Oh, getting spicy[/i]
with Esteban gone.[/i]
If you come over here while I go,
and sturdy it up?
[Rutledge] Aw, look at 'em. The newlyweds.
You can tell they're newlyweds, right?
'Cause a couple of years in it's,
"You go down there.
I'll go this other way."
-He's holding it.
-[Rutledge] "You'll be fine."
-[Luke] How do you feel?
-[Maria] I feel good!
You look good!
[Rutledge] Luke's basically[/i]
got married life down to a science,[/i]
holding things for your wife,
and complimenting your wife.
[Maria grunts]
-Need to get closer?
-Hold on.
[Rutledge] It's nice that Luke[/i]
is holding that,[/i]
but what would be really helpful to Maria
is if he made his way
over to the teeter-totter
to knock that stuffed monkey off
to allow her to move forward.
Oh, crap!
We can't grab it
until the monkey is moved?
Yeah. Do you wanna go that way?
Yeah. You're gonna hang out there?
-Yeah.
-[Luke] I like not this.
[Maria] Yeah, well, you have long legs.
You can do it.
[Rutledge] Where are you going?
-He's gotta go around.
-He's gotta go to the slide.
You lowered your wife out there,
and now she's stuck.
[Zach] Good luck, honey.
You're doing great. Look at that strength.
[Maria] Good job, good job,
good job, good job!
[Luke] I like not this.
[Rutledge] He likes not this?[/i]
Star Wars fan much?[/i]
[Maria] Just hold on. In the bed, yeah!
-[Rutledge] Oh!
-[teams groaning]
[Maria] Wait. Oh my God!
[yells]
-That's a Demo... How you call it?
-[Maria] Demogorgon.
It's a Demogorgon.
[Rutledge] There are Stranger Things[/i]
hiding in here.[/i]
Stranger Things, the Netflix show?[/i]
It just hangs around. I dunno why.[/i]
-Use the Demogorgon!
-To go where?
To go over there! Yeah!
-But the exit pass is up there!
-Go! Yeah! Go for it.
[Rutledge] Yeah. Go for it, Luke.[/i]
Both of you still need an exit pass.[/i]
Are you sure I shouldn't take a nap?
[Maria] No.
-Pillow fight?
-[Maria] No, leave it there.
-I'm stalling. I'm terrified.
-[Maria] Luke! Go for an exit pass!
-I don't trust this.
-Well, you're gonna have to.
Hold on. I can get my torso
on top of that box.
Then do it!
I'm about to hit that YOLO.
Come on, Kenny. Let's go, Kenny.
Whoo!
[grunts] Let's go.
-[Rutledge] Oh!
-Let's go, baby!
[Rutledge] Does he make it?
Can he hold on?
[Rutledge] Yes!
Look at that.
Luke made the leap, and he survived.
Ooh! That was a lot of man
flying through the air.
-That was.
-Yeah, Luke.
[Luke yells]
[Rutledge] Scream of triumph or terror?[/i]
You decide.[/i]
Okay, I can make that jump,
provided I don't slip.
I am not trusting this.
Baby, I'm going for it, okay?
-Just go for it, just go for it.
-For Esteban.
[Rutledge] Maria encouraging her husband[/i]
to make the leap.[/i]
Just like they did the whole time
they were dating.
[Maria] Okay, go for it,
go for it, go for it!
-[Rutledge] Oh! He makes it!
-[Maria] Oh my God! Yes, yes, yes!
-That's what I'm talking about, baby!
-Okay! Release it!
-[Luke] Where?
-It says right there. Find to release.
I can't climb
till the pieces are released.
We're trapped, baby.
-We're trapped?
-Yeah.
[Rutledge] And finally,[/i]
realization setting in on the newlyweds,[/i]
that not only are they
stuck together for life,
but they're stuck in front of
the four-in-a-row,
because the piece to release
and the exit pass are on the other side.
Remember, they only need to get
one exit pass faster than Amirah did.
He's stuck, and she's stuck,
'cause neither of them are at
the right spot to get that exit pass.
-I know!
-Right!
Can you go like this to the monkey?
[Maria] Oh dang.
[Maria] Dang it!
Do you want to sacrifice yourself,
knock over the thing, so I can go in here?
Yeah, that might work.
I could try to step on that
to knock it off.
-Okay.
-[Chanel] What is he doing?
-It's crazy if you think about it...
-He's gonna save his wife.
-He's gonna save her! Oh!
-[Amirah laughs]
Go! Luke, you gotta do it now,
you gotta do it now.
All right.
[emotional orchestral music playing]
-I love you.
-Babe, well, just be careful.
-[Luke] All right.
-Oh no!
[operatic singing]
[Luke] Oh!
[yelling]
[cheering]
{\an8}No!
[Rutledge] Luke sacrificed himself[/i]
{\an8}for the marriage,[/i]
{\an8}so Maria could live on and prosper
on the teeter-totter.
[operatic singing]
[Rutledge] It's just like[/i]
the end of Titanic,[/i]
except Jack could've survived.
That door was huge, Rose.
Huge.
Ladies, the smiles are getting bigger.
If Maria falls
before getting an exit pass,
y'all are moving on to the Volcano.
[cheering]
One, two...
Gosh dang it.
[Zach] Is that gonna teeter
when she gets to the other side?
-[Rutledge] For sure!
-[Maria squeals]
Dang, dang, dang.
No. Please, Maria, please.
Listen. People doubted me,
and I'm the last one standing.
[Rutledge] She's gotta get that exit pass.
Ooh. Ooh, if she gets that before you...
I cannot even reach that.
