0:00 - Welcome to this episode of "Bit City." Hi, I'm Deb G, Angela's mom. You know, if I had my way, I would host this episode with a big '70s Italian wig, just like my family back in New York City. So, have a good time. Thanks. (bright music) (electricity buzzing) - Wow, I'm obsessed with Ellen! Thanks Mom. You heard it right, guys. We're taking pitches from our parents, our family, everybody is welcomed at the table in this "Bit City" episode. We let our family join the writer's room. Yep. And we're gonna watch what they asked us to pitch.

0:38 Like, my mom wanted me to wear a big, old '70s Italian wig. - It works. - It does. - And this is it, right? So we will be taking pitches similar to what just happened this entire episode. - What kind of establishment do you think I'm running here? Do you think I'm selling goat suckers? - Goat suckers? - There's sex toys in there. - I don't really do that floozy twirl shit, but here you go. - Whoa, whoa! - There you go. - This burger sucked. - [Tommy] Okay. Yeah. - That's some hard-ass bread. ♪ Your eggs say more about you than they think they do ♪ ♪ Yes, your eggs, your eggs ♪ ♪ Your eggs, your eggs, your eggs ♪ ♪ It's true ♪ ♪ Your eggs ♪ - With me, I have Chanse, Spencer, Anthony and Tommy.

1:18 - Hey. - Hello. (group clapping) - So you guys are on the couch because your parents pitched stuff. Are you excited? - This is my dad's dream. - I drew mailboxes. - [Chanse] Oh. - Can we pause? Oh, my God, we have a drawing! (Anthony laughs) - I'm so happy to bring it to life. - I'm so excited. I could tell that my dad was really into watching Smosh videos in like 2006, 2007, so I think that's probably the vibe that he's gonna be going with. - Anthony's trying to get a pet for Ian, and it's a capybara. Can you see that?

1:48 (everyone laughs) - He's got the picture! - I can't wait. - I think this could be the first Smosh video my mom watches. (Anthony laughs) - Yes! - That's awesome. - Hi, Spencer's mom. Welcome to Smosh. - Like, I know Spencer and all those guys, all their stuff's from the Goodwill or from 10 years ago. I'm like, "Is it just you?" And then I'm in LA and I'm like, "Okay, it's not just you." (group laughs) - I'm scared of what my mother said. - I like gay people. - Yes! - So we got two dads, two moms on the couch? That's awesome. - Two dads, two moms.

2:13 - That's good. - Dude, that meet-cute? - Two dads, two moms walk into a bar, and two dads and two moms walk out of a bar together. They're like swingers or shit. - Yeah. Yeah. - Yeah! (group claps) Yeah, that's a sketch right there. - Our parents are gonna punch it up. - [Angela] Anthony. - Yeah, my dad was very excited about this, so. - How did you pitch it to him? Were you like, "Hey, get on this call." - I was like, you know, I didn't want him to feel pressured, so I was like, "You know, you don't have to do it.

2:37 I told them there's like a 1% chance that you'd wanna do it. You don't have to do it if you don't want to." He was like, so interested. And I was like, "You know, like a sketch or something funny, something you've always wanted to see us do." And he was like, "Okay, I'm gonna take the night and think about it. - Oh! - And then in the morning, I'll have an idea for you." - Okay, I can't wait. - [Chanse] That's awesome. - Danny. Okay, let's play it. - Danny Padilla. - So. - Okay, Danny. - I have an idea. - Hell, yeah!

3:01 - Anthony's trying to get a pet animal for Ian, and it's a capybara. Can you see that? (everyone laughs) - He's got the picture! - But it's really, it's really difficult to say. So when he's calling the pet store, they have different animals or whatever. There's a chuca, chucabra, I think. - Chupacabra. - Chupacabra. - Yeah, it's a chupacabra. - It's literally a goat sucker. (laughs) It means... Chupa means sucks and cabras means goats. So it's a goat sucker. So, people keep messing it up. There's another one. - That's good!

3:37 - There's also a bird called kookaburra. (everyone laughs) - He's cooking, bro. - I'm obsessed! - He loves it. - He's so into it. He's like, "We got four animals that kinda sound the same." - [Chanse] Yeah. - "Let's go!" - Word plays, that's always gonna hit. - Yeah, yeah. - It's always kinda confusing. Yeah. - I always really respect someone when they're pitching something and they're laughing at it. - Yeah. - Yeah, yeah. - It makes you like it more. - I'm like, "You're bought in, I'm bought in." - Yeah. Like, he's so far, only listing animals, and I'm in.

4:06 - Yeah. - Yeah. - I'm (beep) in. - So when Anthony's calling around trying to get, you know, trying to get this animal for Ian, the people keep saying, "Well, is it a cupabara? Is it a chupacabra? Is it a kookaburra? Is it a cabra, like a goat?" (laughs) And you know what, this is real life too, 'cause I could see myself messing up and actually getting Anthony a goat, (Anthony laughs) a cabra, as opposed to a guinea pig, you know. And he's like, "So what is this?" "You asked for it. You asked for a cupabara." And he goes, "Well, you forgot the first part.

4:40 'Cause this is a cabra, which is a goat." (laughs) I think those are gonna be really hard to find, like, a real one. So I think at the very end, I guess maybe like, Anthony gets Ian a stuffed animal that looks like this. I don't know. - Button. - Yeah. - That, okay. I actually can't believe we're hitting different types of comedy unintentionally. Now we're doing word play. - I'm excited to watch that one first. - Yeah, it's like a who's on first. And at Petco it's like, "Well, you ordered a kookaburra, but you wanted a coochachabra."

5:13 It's so, I can't wait. - Coochiechabra. I'm sure you're familiar with coochiechabra, bitch. - Yeah, yeah. - Let's go, Danny! (jaunty music) (calm music) (Ian laughing) - Check this out. - What is this? - It's a capybara. - [Anthony] Okay. They run like 20 miles an hour, but I've been practicing and I'm pretty sure I could outrun 'em. Check it out. - Oh, wow. Oh! (Ian panting) Yeah. Oh, yeah, you could totally outrun one. Yeah. Oh, yeah. No, I think that if you had one, you could probably race it and you would probably win.

5:46 - It's too bad I'll probably never be able to race one. (sad violin music) Well, anyway, I'm gonna go get in line for lunch. - Okay. Save me a seat and I'll be right there. - You know I won't have to. Nobody sits next to me. (mellow music) (Anthony sighing) (phone dialing) (phone ringing) - Hey. Hey, stop eating that. (dog barking) Rancho Cucamonga. Rodents, reptiles, and really weird creatures. How can I help you? - Hi. Yeah, I'm looking for a pet for my friend. He's really sad, depressed. No one will sit next to him at lunch.

6:23 You know, I'm trying to cheer him up. I was wondering if you have a, oh God, I forget the name. Kookaburra, I think it was? - The terrestrial kingfishers? - The king what? - Yeah. It's kinda like a bird with an underbite. - No, no, no. It's definitely not a bird. It's a... It is a weird shape though. - It's a mammal? - Yes. Yes, I think it's a mammal. - Okay. Yeah, yeah. We got an okapi. It's kinda like a small forest giraffe. - No, it's definitely not a giraffe. It's got like no neck at all. It's a... (sighs) It's like a chupacabra maybe.

6:53 - Hey, whoa, whoa! - What? - What kind of establishment do you think I'm running here? You think I'm selling goat suckers? - Goat suckers? What? No! - Yeah, the creepy little reptilian dogs that run around plucking and sucking goats. - There's no plucking, no sucking going on over here, okay? I'm just trying to get an animal for my depressed friend. I think it was a coopaburra, maybe. - Am I a joke to you? (intense music) "Let's make fun of the guy who sells reject animals nobody wants," huh? You know what? Why don't I go in the back.

7:18 I think I got a Koopa Troopa and a Bowser for you. (beep) you, man. - Yes, yes, yes. It was a coopa-something. Do you have any animals there that are weird shapes, start with a C? - Oh! - It's like right on the tip of my tongue. - A cabra. - Ca- Yeah. Oh, it's like- - A cabra! - It's like a coo- - You're looking for a cabra! - A coop of cabras or something like that. - Okay. Yeah, yeah. - Coopacabra. - I got that for you, man. No problem. - Yeah. Okay, cool. I hope you're ready for your surprise! - Did you name a highway after me?

7:46 - Nope. Even better. - [Ian] What? - I got you a.... Surprise! What? - What's up, dude? - Oh. That's cool, I guess. - What? I thought you were a pet store owner. What is this? - Oh, we also sell kids toys. Yeah. Keeps their spirits high if their pets die. - Oh. - And cabra is goat in Spanish. - How's that relevant? - Yeah, I was trying to get you that animal that you showed me a video of. You were gonna race it. I was trying to make you feel better. - Oh! Capybara. - Capybara. - Capybara. - Capybara. - Capybara. - Capybara. - Bara. Yeah.

8:20 - [Anthony] Capybara. - [Ian] Capybara. - That's what it was. - Si! - Do you have one of those? Do you have one of those that you're... - No, they're illegal in California and they're rodent not a mammal. (Anthony groans) - So, you were wrong in kind of every way possible. - Nobody said it was a... What? I don't think that's- - I said it. I said it on the phone earlier. Yeah, I did say- - And rodents are mammals. - Don't tell me how to do my job, man. I'm the animal guy. - Oh, sorry. - [Anthony] Yeah. - Hey, look.

8:44 I feel kinda bad for you guys, so, got something for you. (toy squeaking) (Ian gasping) (soaring music) Wrested this out of a kid's hand at a birthday party I did a few months back. Been weighing on my conscience, so I knew I needed to get rid of it. Feels like the perfect moment. - Oh! - Wow! - Oh. It's kinda sticky. - Kids' hands are sticky, yeah. (mellow music) - Well, I guess it's the thought that counts. (Ian and Anthony laughing) (hands slapping) (soaring music) (sparkles tinkling) - What was that? - Shut the- (beep) (jaunty music) - This episode is sponsored by Lingopie.

9:21 And honestly, perfect timing, because watch what happens when I try to order food while I'm visiting in Italy. Okay, so I'm trying to translate pasta with tomato sauce. (Angela speaking Italian) Waiter! But then I started using Lingopie, which is an innovative language learning platform that combines entertainment and education. So you don't like, fall asleep while you're in Miss Dougal's class trying to learn Spanish. Where was this app when I was in school? I pop on a TV show or movie, and bada bing bada boom, I'm immersed in another language.

9:59 My current favorite show is "Gnocchi: What a passion." I love using the interactive subtitles while I watch. I can easily click on a word that I don't know and it says it back to me. - [Translator] Gnocchi. (bell dings) - A little tip I picked up, there are flashcards and quizzes from the show or movie you just watched so you could retain the vocab. Practicing is key. And with the Say It feature, Lingopie can tell me if I'm saying the words correctly. (Translator speaking Italian) (Angela speaking Italian) Okay, I need to practice that one more.

10:28 Not into TV or movies? Don't worry. They have music and short stories too. You have zero excuses to not sign up, because Lingopie is available on multiple devices. (Angela speaking Italian) I use Lingopie daily and I'm on my way to being fluent. Once I master Italian, I'm moving on to French. There are over 12 languages to choose from. (Angela speaks in foreign language) See? I'll learn that soon.

10:58 Click the link in the description below. Now, back to the show. What I'm really excited about with this episode is we even let them pitch things that aren't sketches and more just like, what we're gonna do throughout the episode. And Spencer's mom pitched some fun main stage activities for us to do that I'm really excited about. Had Ellen ever seen an episode of "Bit City" before she pitched? - I have no idea. I don't think she watches games content. I think she'll see the clips, maybe. - What if she watched "Bit City" and not games?

11:24 - I would be- - Whoa! - [Tommy] That'd be awesome. - I would be livid. (everyone laughs) I would be pissed. - Okay, let's see what Ellen wants us to do right up top. - Okay, but this is kinda one of my favorite ones. - Pause! - [Chanse] Are those presidents in the background? - [Angela] Are those presidents in the background? - Yeah, she lives in Washington DC. - [Angela] Look at her. (Chanse gasps) - Oh. - She went all in. She loves a theme. - [Tommy] Oh, she's a cutie. - [Chanse] She looks like she's about to go to a tennis match, and I love it.

11:46 - I'm so excited. Okay. - Like a fashion show with Smosh people. Like, okay, like exactly with what you have on today, right? And they wouldn't know, but you have to like, walk down a runway and somebody would be commentating. Or maybe you'd even have to commentate about yourself and you're like, you know, "Yeah, I got ready in three minutes today. I threw all my... My hair wasn't looking its best." I mean, I'm not funny like that, but you guys can make it funny. You know, like, I know Spencer and all those guys, all their stuff's from the Goodwill or from 10 years ago.

12:13 And it's like, you know, "I've got this nice hole here." I mean, no offense, but I can't believe. I know, and I'm like, "Is it just you?" And then I'm in LA and I'm like, "Okay, it's not just you." (Anthony and Angela laugh) - Pause. Pause. - Your mom thinks you dress like shit. - No, she really, she loves me though. Doesn't matter, bro, she loves me. - I like how she roasted all of LA as well. - Yeah, that's true. - No, but truly, like, anytime there's like a hole in a shirt or anything, she finds it immediately, and she's like.

12:37 (button beeps) - My mom does that too. - Yeah. Yeah. - [Chanse] Well, look at how prim and proper she is. - My mom is very preppy. - Of course. Yes. - Very, very preppy. - Yeah, I'd love for him to play like a... As his mom, a preppy little, like, in like a Lilly Pulitzer jacket. And, you know, it's like, put people in the opposite of what they are or something. Or like, if parents could dress their kids. Even if you did it on like a... 'Cause it would be expensive, the outfit I'd wanna put him in. But, you know, something like that would be very funny.

13:05 - Burberry. - 'Cause I'm sure your mom would like to see you in like a, I don't know, you know? We wish we could dress our kids again. - Aw! - And then, okay, so, the hamburger one, which, I fricking love all that kind of stuff, but I don't know if that's too much of a game. - So, pause. - Do we have clarity on what the hamburger one is? - I think she's gonna explain it. If I had to guess, it's something, she, like, she's always like, "Oh, you guys should, like, try different, like, hamburgers." - Wow, that's actually crazy. She's pitching YouTube videos.

13:29 - Yeah. - Yeah. - She watches- - [Angela] She know the format. - Yeah, she watches, like, Mythical. - Yeah. It's also funny that how your mom and my mom both pitched on things they want changed about our appearance. - Yeah. - And we'll just let that sit, so. (group laughs) - But you know, like, In and Out Burger, Wendy's, McDonald's, I swear to God I could win it. I love a good burger, but I also am picky about a burger. The hard thing is if I saw it, then I'm gonna obviously know what it is. So like, if I felt it, I'd be like, "Okay."

13:56 Or, but I guess that's all part of it. Like, Burger King, you can smell a Whopper. Oh my God, you guys are so cute. I love what you do. - I think this could be the first Smosh video my mom watches. - I love what you do. I really love what you do. - Can she see us right now? - Aw. Yeah, that, I was like, "Right now? Thank you." - I was like, "What?" - [Angela] You think we're cute? - Where is she? - Wow! I'm obsessed with Ellen! (group clapping) - That was so cute. - [Tommy] Ellen! - Ellen! - Burger Ellen. - Burger Ellen.

14:22 Okay, we're gonna do everything Ellen told us to do. We're gonna start with a fashion show of what we're all wearing today. Then we're gonna have a fashion show of things that our parents want us to wear. And then we're gonna try to guess some burgers. - That sounds good. - That's awesome. - Sounds like a YouTube video. (everyone laughs) - And then we're gonna guess some burgers, wrap it up, it's a YouTube video. It fits in. Yay! - Yay! (group clapping) - Okay guys, we're about to do a fashion show. And with me, I thought it would be only appropriate if I have another mom from our cast here.

14:49 Please welcome Olivia's mom! (group clapping) (upbeat music) How are you? - I'm obsessed with Angela. - I love you so much! You're one of my favorite people. So, do you have strong... - Okay. - We're sorta already filming on a bunch of other cameras, so. - Okay. Smile over here. (phone camera clicking) Yeah! - Okay, Olivia's mom, here's the thing. - Yeah, look. - Oh, I already- Oh, it's in portrait mode. Okay. We're gonna look at what our friends are wearing and as a mother, you're just gonna let your opinions run free.

15:18 Ready to see our first person's outfit? - I can't wait. - Please welcome Spencer! (Angela and Olivia clap) (rap music) There he is! - Thank you, thank you. - Okay, so- - A pose! - This is Spencer. - [Spencer] Yeah. - This is Spencer. You guys have a little thing. - We have a thing. - This is Spencer. - I'm not actually sure if I've met Olivia's mom. - Are you wearing shoes? - Yeah, so let's see these shoes, bud. (scary music) - Birks. My house shoes that I wear out. - Exposed sock. - [Spencer] Yeah, it's kind of a- - [Angela] Yeah, Olivia's mom, she's gonna take a- Oh, she's gonna do a hug.

15:47 - (censored) yeah. - [Olivia] Oh. (sensual music) - What's interesting about this, it seems like it's half cuff up on the sleeves, or is that just on accident? - Just on accident. - Seems like everything about this outfit is on accident. - Is this real? - Yeah. Do you like 'em? Do you like the tattoos? - Oh, he's making me blush. (Angela guffaws) - I love the jeans. I will say, Spencer, I do think you have good taste. Like, it's hard to kinda roast you. I think you have good taste. - So here's the funny thing. Your daughter, Olivia.

16:10 - She's so wonderful. She's perfect. - Perfect woman. - So funny and incredible. - Perfect. - She brought Sam to the holiday party and I was like, "Sam, I love those jeans." And he was like, "Oh, thanks. This is the Abercrombie model." And he showed me what they were, and I went home and I ordered 'em. These are them. - Are these them? - These are them. - [Olivia] Wow. - Are these they? - Give us a twirl. Give us a twirl. - Yeah. (pop music) - I was like, "Well, it's a fun, like, vintage fit." - Yeah. And this is a perfect shirt.

16:32 - I was gonna say, if Angela roasts my outfit at all... - It's hypocritical. - I'm like, "Bro, you would wear this." - Angela has that shirt. - Spencer and I basically dress exactly the same. I think I wash my clothes a little bit more. - My clothes are, I... (scary music) I wash my clothes weekly. - Are you wearing any underwear? - Yes. - That's good. - That's good. That's the bare minimum. Well, thank you so much, Spencer. - Thank you. Thank you, everybody. - Do you guys want a picture together? - Yes! - [Olivia] Yeah.

16:56 - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Can you do portrait mode? - Yeah. - Yeah. - We like portrait mode, natural lighting. - Moms love portrait mode. - Moms love portrait mode. - Oh! - [Angela] Whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa. - Oh! Whoa, whoa! Okay, haven't been touched like this in a long time. (phone camera clicks) - [Angela] Whoa. (upbeat techno music) - Please welcome Chanse McCrary. (both clapping) - [Olivia] (gasps) Chanse! (upbeat techno music) - [Angela] Whoa! - [Olivia] Wow! - Whoa! A Dress-To-Impress pose. (upbeat techno music) - Zara model.

17:26 - I'll take it. - He hates Zara for some reason. I love Zara. - H&M model. - That's worse. (crew laughs) - My favorite brand is Uniqlo. - Okay, Uniqlo, sometimes. - You like Uniqlo? - Yeah. - More than Zara? Let's start with, I'm obsessed with these workering, worker pants. - Workering! - Working pants. - [Olivia] High waisted. - What are mom's opinions about high-waisted? My mom hates 'em. - It helps me suck in my belly. - Exactly. - [Olivia] Yeah. - And let's see the sock. He's really particular about his sock. - [Chanse] They're random. - Navy.

17:53 Wow, your ankles are so perfect. - So we're not commenting on people's bodies, right? - No, that's fine with me. - We're actually just commenting on the clothes, right? Okay, so let's look at all the jewelry. I'm obsessed with your harmonica necklace. - Thank you. - Oh, it's a- Can you play a song? - [Chanse] Yeah. (harmonica squealing) - What do you think of that? - It's so beautiful. - That's for you. - [Olivia] You're so talented. - [Chanse] Thank you. (sensual music) And you're so young and beautiful. - Thank you. - You're welcome.

18:20 - [Olivia] You are too. - [Chanse] Thank you. - Do you guys want a picture together? - Yes. - Yes! (sighs) Portrait mode! - Yeah, you got it. - Natural light, please. Portrait mode, natural light. - I love portrait mode. - [Olivia] Get his shoes. - You got it, you got it. - [Olivia] Okay. (phone camera clicking) - Now here's my thing, is if I was... Oh, I got the pic. If I was channeling my mom, my mom would say that this is too baggy. - [Olivia] Yeah. - And I always am trying to explain to my mom baggy clothes are fun sometimes.

18:43 - I wanna see your waist. - [Angela] Yeah. - [Olivia] I wanna see the shape. No, I'm saying when you wear- - Oh. - It has to compliment your body. - [Angela] Yeah. - Oh. - Do you like this overcoat? Or what would you call this, Olivia's mom, an over-shirt? - I think that's a shirt. - Yeah. - [Olivia] It's a nice shirt and striped shirt. - Yeah. And the hat's really good too, yeah? - Thank you. It's from Nashville. - Is that where you're from? - Mm-hm. - I've never been. - I would treat you like the queen you are, because I'm a southern gentleman.

19:08 - Are you wearing underwear? - Yes. - That's good. - She really cares about asking that. - They're cute. - Your shoelaces are untied. - I guess I'll just... (slow country music) - You gonna propose? (crew laughs) - Why is everyone hitting on Olivia's mom? - I know how to tie a knot. (Chanse laughs) - Is that supposed to- - Is that supposed to mean something sexual? - Is that sexual? ♪ Tana, tan, tana, ow, ow, ow, ta ♪ (Chanse laughs) - Was there an audition process to be a part of this? - There should have been, yeah.

19:37 (crew laughs) - You crying? - Oh, you're cry- - Yeah. - That was a song? - Yeah. - That was... - It's more of like an instrumental. - Okay, thank you so much, Chanse, for this song and the outfit. - And let me know if you wanna see my underwear later. (upbeat music) - Next up, please welcome Anthony! (upbeat dance music) - [Olivia] This is the one. - This is the one you like. - No, that's.... Oh! - [Angela] Wow! Okay, let's see the fit. Let's see the fit. - [Olivia] Okay. (upbeat dance music) - [Angela] Okay, I love the camo.

20:12 Olivia's mom, what do you think off the bat? - Are you in the military? - I'm Anthony, by the way. - Whoa! (sensual music) - Oh. - Hi. I've never met Olivia's mom. So good to meet you. - Oh, my. - I'll get it. - Can you do portrait? Like, natural. - What about a panorama? Let's do that. - No. Portrait mode, please. - [Angela] Got it. I'm getting it. - [Anthony] Okay. - It's you with someone in the army. I got it. (Anthony laughs) This is, he does feel like a well-dressed man. - Is this well-dressed? I just put it on and I was, I didn't know we were doing this today.

20:37 - If I were you, I wouldn't dress like this. - [Angela] Okay, what would you dress him in? - Maybe some big flowy silk pants. - Ooh. - Maybe a silk top like this. - Okay. - [Angela] Okay. - I love the art on his arms. - Oh, thank you. You're the first person to call it art. I appreciate that. - [Olivia] I like that. - Wow and we got that on camera. - [Anthony] Yes. - Are you wearing any underwear? - [Angela] Don't. - Yes. - She's asking everybody that. - Yes. - Okay, that's good. What about those shorts? Did you cut them yourself?

21:02 - No, but I should have. I bought these as a pants version. I was like, "Oh, they got a shorts version?" And I bought those. - These shorts are sick. - And then when I received them, they were exactly the same thing, just cut with scissors, so I could've cut them. - That's how it goes. - I could have cut the pants myself. - Could've cut the pants. But I like it as pants too, I imagine. - Yeah. I don't know if they're supposed to fray and get destroyed, but I think slowly it's like, unraveling and it's gonna just be nothing but peepee soon.

21:24 - What soon? What did he say? - I'm not repeating it. This is between you two. - We'll talk later. - It's crazy this fashion show is turning into a little bit of like a bachelorette moment for you! - It's sort of a bachelor moment. And I feel like they're all gonna stand in front of me and I'm gonna give them a rose. - Thank you so much, Anthony. We really appreciate it. (upbeat music) Please welcome our last, but certainly not least, Tommy Bowe. (both clapping) (pop music) - [Olivia] I love Tommy. - [Angela] Whoa.

21:53 - [Olivia] I love Tommy! - [Angela] Whoa! - I love Tommy. - [Angela] Wow, look at that. - Hi. Oh my God, it's Olivia's mom! Oh! Shit! Is your knee okay? (laughs) - Are you okay? - Are you okay? - No. - Okay. - I'm weak in my knees! Oh! - It's okay, sweetie. (silly music) - [Angela] And it's sort of in portrait mode. - Portrait mode? - Yep, it is. - [Tommy] You got it in the end. - [Olivia] You okay? - Yeah. Are you okay? - Are you okay? - Are you okay? - That was really cute. You guys kind of... Are you okay? - [Olivia] Yeah.

22:18 (Angela and Tommy chuckle) - [Angela] Okay! - Olivia's mom, I didn't know you were here. - I am here. - He's kind of, yeah. - You know what, I'm such a fan. - He's a big fan. - I love Tommy. - I love when you show up on Olivia's stories and you're just like, really gorgeous in the background. That's really- - Like, really just stunning. You are adorable. - Thank you. - I love these jeans. I love these shoes. Tell us about this belt. - I don't know. I've had this belt since like, college. - I could have bet $100 on that.

22:41 - Okay. - I'm sorry, they told us to roast you. It's hard! - No, it's fine. No, it's fine. - You guys picked four really well-dressed people. Like, I don't know how to roast you. - This isn't well dre- You know how I dress. This isn't well-dressed. - I know. It is unfortunate you're in Smosh merch. - My car broke down this morning and so I threw some shit on real quick, and now I'm here. - I love your silhouette. - Thank you. - I love the straight pants. - [Angela] Yeah. - You are so adorable. - Thank you so much.

23:03 And I am wearing underwear today. - You're wearing underwear. - Oh my God. It's like he was listening. - It's like I was backstage for the other three. - So this shirt is... My daughter was on this team. - Yes. Yeah, I'm actually- - My daughter. - Just like you, I'm such an Angela fan and I saw that she was wearing this shirt today, and so I ran back home on foot and put the shirt on and ran back. - In your running shoes. - In my running shoes. These are my gym shoes, because I did come from the gym when my car broke down.

23:27 (Angela and Tommy chuckle) - Thank you, Tommy! (upbeat music) Now we're gonna get to put them in clothes that their moms wanted them to wear. - (gasps) Moms know best. - Tommy's dad's pitch. - Dad reveal. - Yup. Dad reveal. - What's his name? - His name is Tom Bowe. - Oh! - Tome Bowe! - So... - I'm the third. - Wow! - [Tom] He's junior. - Tom Bowe! - Never met the first. (classical music) Just a preface to this, I think we spent 20 minutes getting the video set up. (playful music) Dad, do we need the link? Should I email it to someone? What do you need?

24:00 I have sent the email with the link. My mom had to come over. Why is it taking you to the app store? It doesn't... I don't know why. Hey. Okay, can you FaceTime me? "I don't know how to download." And I'm like, "You don't have to download." (Spencer laughs) Hey Tim, why is it taking my parents to the app store? Mom, you're not gonna download an app on the computer. I won't allow it. It's like, "Is my stuff gonna get stolen?" And I'm like, "It's a video call." (Angela laughs) I'm gonna try sending you a second link.

24:26 - "Says we won money." - "No, no, no!" Nope nope nope nope nope. Join Studio. Okay, there we go. Thank you, mom. (Anthony laughs) So anyway. - Okay. So we're gonna play this and watch it. Look out for the details, because everybody here at "Bit City" worked really hard to just replicate exactly what our parents said. So, I'm excited to watch this. Let's hit play. - Well, first of all, I used to work for the post office. I just retired. And I had one incident happen in my first few years, where I was in a lobby of a condo.

24:59 Elderly people are waiting for the mailman, 'cause could be news and things like that. So they're all congregating. And this one lady was just insisting to get her mail. "I'm 117. I'm 117." And I turned around and said, "You don't look a day over 90." - Hey. - And then everybody laughed in there, but she was pissed (Anthony and Spencer laugh) and left. But you know, stuff like that. My skit is the condo room like that. There's a sofa and chairs and little tables and stuff where they can sit and read or whatever. And the mailboxes would be in the wall.

25:38 And the scene, I guess, would be the mailman would come in through the door and then there would be conversation, and he would be putting the mail in and then he would leave. That's the set. So it'd be one room, and wouldn't be a whole lot of stuff. - Frugal. (intense music) - I drew mailboxes. - Oh. - Oh, he's got schematics. - [Tom] You know, just 1 through 101. - Can we pause? - Whoa! - Oh my God, we have a set dress! Like, a drawing! It says "Smosh" up top. - [Anthony] And "Postal Skit." - "Postal Skit, Smosh." (Anthony laughs) - I love "skit." - Yeah.

26:10 - By the way, we did end up making these mailboxes. It's a flat, like, fabrication, so they don't actually open, and we didn't really even utilize them in the sketch. But it was important that we made them. - Yeah. - Yes. - So that my dad goes, "Good, there are mailboxes there." (group laughs) "That used to be my job. Mailboxes." So. - Like, I imagine you got Shayne and Tommy and all those people dressed. - We got Shayne? - And they're sitting there and then they can be like, "Oh, the mailman just pulled up. What's he doing?

26:39 What's taking him so long?" And, "Oh, he's getting packages. We got packages! Yay!" (Tom claps) - That was a Tommy "yay." - I was gonna say that! - An then the mailman would come in and, "Alright, everybody leave the mail alone. I got a couple of trips to make." - The voice work. - "You can't help yourself. I have to scan this." And so I wrote this one thing, this one box. I'll have Mrs. Smith, and I have her sign for it. And then she whispers, "Did you look in the box?" And I was, "No, I'm not allowed to do that."

27:06 "Well, if you did, there's sex toys in there. Do you have any batteries?" So I'm just... (group laughs) And then the ladies- - Pause! - [Tom] I've had this happen. - This is it. This is good. This is good. - [Tommy] Yeah. - We got a joke! - Yeah. - We got a joke, everybody. - And I'd be putting the mail in and the ladies are sitting back there giggling, and I'm talking 80-year-old ladies. And they're like, "You know how tanned your legs are? Look at the muscles on that." - Oh. - And, "Don't mind us. We're just helping our heart beat a little faster."

27:38 We don't have this, we have pepper spray for the dogs, but I was thinking of some kind of belt, which you can make it like a bat belt. - Yes! - With a couple of compartments on it and have the spray on there. And as he's done with the mail and everything and he opens up the one that says "Emergency" and takes some Sweet'N Low and toss it over into the corner, and then all the elderly people are gonna run over there and get the Sweet'N Low as he slips out the front door. - That's pretty good. - It's pretty good. - Tom Bowe, everybody!

28:09 - Tom Bowe, everyone. (group clapping) - Tom Bowe! - Tom Bowe Junior! Give it up for Tom Bowe Junior! - [Angela] Tom Bowe! Tom Bowe! - Was it all the same sketch? - Yes. - Yeah. - It was all the same sketch. - Yeah. So, yeah. - It's like vignettes. - How the sketch got translated when it was written out, it's just mail guy comes in, three old, like, old horny people, basically, and him just having to, like, deal with them. And then we did the Sweet'N Low bit. By the way, we already filmed it. And right now we already filmed it. We filmed it yesterday.

28:33 It was crazy. The Sweet'N Low bit was- - The Sweet'N Low button is fun. - Yeah. - [Tommy] It's fun. - I love that. - [Tommy] It's very fun. - I also love that your dad wrote that he's getting hit on in this sketch. - [Anthony] Yeah. - Oh no! He would. Like, this is coming from his real life. - Aw! - He'd come home and be like, "The old ladies, they're hitting on me again." - Do you think he ever partook? - Spencer! - No. - No, it's a fair question. - [Angela] It's a fair question. - Fair question, fair question. - Hey, you can ask. - I'm proud of him.

28:56 It was very, it was funny. When it came together, it was really funny. - Yeah. - Stocked to see it. - Okay, let's play it. (upbeat music) (lively music) - What is taking so long? - He drives that truck every day and he keeps us waiting. What could he possibly be doing? - Wasting my tax dollars by the minute. He'd better get his tight ass up in here. - Why are you taking so long? - Oh! Ooh, he's coming, girls. (playful music) - Afternoon, everyone. - Ooh. - Ooh. Packages? Do we have some packages? - Well, I have to check the names first.

29:38 - Oh. Oh, oh, here. - Look. - [Mrs. Brown] 117. - Okay. Mrs. Smith. - [Mrs. Brown] 117. - Mrs. Smith, those could be for other residents. - [Mrs. Brown] 117. Ladies, we've been through this before, alright? - Did you know that I'm 117? That's one hundred seventeen, mailman. - Well, you don't look a day over 90. - Oh! (group laughs) He touched me. - Well, I have to go make another run. Don't go taking these packages, 'cause I still have to scan them, okay? I'm trusting you guys, alright? Okay. (Mrs. Brown growls) - This must be my husband's ashes.

30:17 He likes to collect used cigarettes, so he'll be very happy I got this. - Amazing. Oh! - Oh. - My! Impressive! - Oh. Oh, those are beautiful. Lydia did me so dirty this week. - Ask for Mia next time. She doesn't speak a lick of English, like my 4-year-old grandson. - Ah! - Florida education system, am I right? - Did you open one? - Oh, we would never! (box rattling) - Oh, Mr. Mailman, would you scan this one for me? - Yes, of course I can, Mrs. Brown. - Thank you, dear. Did you- (scanner beeps) - I got it. - Did you take a look inside?

31:00 - No, I'm not allowed to do that. - Why didn't you take a look? Because there's sex toys in there. Do you have any batteries I can use? - No. - Batteries? - No. - A mailman doesn't have batteries. Could you imagine? - Oh my God! Gee willikers, your legs are so tanned, huh? - Oh, and the muscles on them! (sensual music) (Noah hisses) (Mrs. Smith babbling) (sensual music) (scanner beeping) - Now, don't mind us, dear. (scanner beeping) Don't mind us. - Ooh. (scanner beeping) (boxes thumping) - No, no. We're just trying to get our heart rates up.

31:49 (intense music) - Back off! - Ooh! - Arrest me. - Please, ladies. I don't want to do this. - Throw away the key. (intense music) - Ha! - Sweet'N Low. - Sweet'N Low! - Sweet'N Low! - Oh my God! - Always a pleasure, ladies. - Oh, Sweet'N Low. - Share, girls! - [Mrs. Smith] Oh my God! - You're taking all the Sweet'N Low! (bag thuds) - Oh! - Put the Sweet'N Low in my purse. - Sweet'N Low! Oh, Sweet'N Low! Arrest me, daddy! - Gladys, you're eating all the Sweet'N Low! You fat bitch! - [Mrs. Brown] You call me a bitch? - I'm looking at your ass, Gladys, and it looks like a backside of a Thunderbird.

32:32 I'm gonna die here. My time is up. - I hope so! - Oh. Oh! Someone get help. We can't get up! - Oh. (jaunty music) - It's only fair that if I'm wearing this wig because my mom wanted me to wear it, that everybody else has to do it too. So, each person that we just saw is gonna come back, go down the runway and wear something that their parents specifically ask them to be in. Are you ready, Olivia's Mom? - You're so cute, Angela. I love this hair on you. - You have such a funny way of drowning people in compliments.

33:04 Okay, here we go. Please welcome, wearing what Ellen wanted him to wear, it's Spencer! (group clapping) ♪ Wow ♪ ♪ Can't stop till I get enough ♪ (Angela laughs) ♪ Such a miles above ♪ ♪ Must have been bit by the bug ♪ - It's me. It's the new me. I was walking by out there and Emily was like, "Oh my God, I love your outfit." And I was- - Though you were genuinely wearing that? - Thought I was genuinely wearing this. I was like, "It's for a bit." She was like, "Oh!" (Angela laughs) This doesn't feel that crazy to me.

33:31 - This feels crazy to me. - You look like Olivia's dad and I don't like that. - Okay. - [Angela] Oh, okay. - I like Spencer's original clothing. - [Spencer] Okay. - You in boat shoes. Is that what those are? - These are boat shoes. - [Angela] What makes them boat- - I think my mom, I think she meant like Gucci loafers, I think is literally what she actually meant. (Angela laughs) I think when she said boat shoes she meant Gucci loafers. - You in white pants. - After Labor Day too. - After Labor Day. - You're gonna get that dirty immediately.

33:57 - Yeah. - With the work that you do. - Yeah, with the, yeah. - So you don't feel crazy? - I'm crawling around on the game stage. I don't feel that crazy. - I feel crazy. - [Spencer] Yeah. - I don't like it. I need you to switch back into your Abercrombie jeans. - Okay, I will. - And your socks. - And my socks. So, actually, I still have the socks on. - [Angela] Oof. (scary music) - [Spencer] Still got the same- - Ah! - Errol Bean. - Okay, there you go. So now that you look exactly the way your mom wants, is there anything you wanna say to her?

34:22 Shout her out down the barrel? - I love you, Mom. - Aw! - Like, you know, there's boy moms. - You're a mom's son. - I'm a mom's son. - Look at that. - It's actually a good picture. - Look at that. - Okay. - Thank you, Spencer. - Yeah. - And thank you, Ellen. - Yeah, send that to me. (upbeat music) (group clapping) - Yeah, send that to him. That's good. Next up, please welcome Chanse McCrary. (group clapping) (upbeat music) ♪ Pay me my money ♪ ♪ Make it rain, yeah ♪ - Shut the (beep) up. That's not what she wants you to look like.

34:47 - What do you mean? (Olivia gasps) She wants me to be a redneck. - Oh no! This is getting deeper than I wanted it to. - What? What do you mean? - Okay, let's see it. Let's see a twirl. Tell us what you're wearing. - I don't really do that floozy twirl shit, but here you go. - Whoa, whoa! - There you go. - Where are your sleeves? - What do you mean? I cut 'em off so I could put some timber on the fire. (crew laughs) - You cut them off so you can put some timber- - Yeah, I don't want wood all over my sleeves. It gets caught up and shit.

35:15 - Yeah. A second bad belt. - I liked the Zara model. - You don't like this belt? - [Angela] Yeah, no. I don't think I really like any belt. - Don't like bulls? Can't take the horns? - What's in your mouth? - Wheat. (crew laughs) - [Olivia] That looks like- - They didn't have jerky back there. I tried to find some jerky. They ain't got no jerky. All they got is fruit and nuts and shit, so I got some peanuts that I can't (beep) open on the set 'cause people are allergic to 'em. Like you're gonna lose a fight to a nut.

35:37 That's crazy to me. (Olivia gasps) (Angela laughs) - So you think that allergies are a fight that they need to put up with? - Yeah, I'm just like, grow up. You just gotta rub it on your skin a little bit. You'll get over it. - That's not true. Do you want to say anything to your mom? - All right, what's up, Mom? I love you. I'm about to get a tat of your name right here. I'll wait till you pass away if you want, and then once you pass away I'll get a tat right here that says Jay. (melancholic music) - No. - Says Mama Jay.

35:59 And like, a little bluebird and Dallas Cowboys star. - Okay. As he talks- - And I'll get it right in the same place you got yours. - Look how much the- - We'll be matching. You'll be in the grave though but I'll be alive. - [Angela] The wig moves. - With the Dallas Cowboys. They'll still be losing. (crew laughs) - Could you please sing a song? - Oh, I don't sing unless it's in church. - But a second ago when you were in your normal outfit, you sang. - Yeah. - If Jake will get up there on the worship, then you know I'll be singing.

36:24 My hands will be out and I'll be singing. But other than that, no, I don't really sing. - It's crazy how much your goatee moves... - Moves when you're talking. - When you talk. Talk about the Cowboys again. - Well, the Cowboys ain't had a winning season in a while. - Keep going. It's crazy, the way it- - They got that new-ass stadium. I heard the Titans about to get another stadium too and I'm like, "How much money are we spending on these damn stadiums?" - [Angela] Thank you so much, Chanse. - Yep. Thank you for having me.

36:45 - I'm not gonna take a portrait picture of you, okay? - Yeah you don't have to. I don't even know what that is. (Angela chuckles) - Yay! (upbeat music) (group clapping) Okay. How do you feel? - I hated it. - [Angela] Yeah. - The second guy didn't even hit on me this time. - No, it seemed like he didn't give a shit about us. Okay, do you wanna introduce who's next, Olivia's mom? - Yes. Up next, we have Anthony. (group clapping) (rock music) - No! - [Olivia] No! - No! (rock music) Oh my God, this looks so good! - Oh, look at you there. Hello.

37:24 - Oh my God, you look sick as hell. This is what- - Yeah, I gotta get going, but go ahead. - [Angela] This is what your dad wanted you to look like, or your mom? - My dad. Yeah, thank you, Danny. He apparently listed out every single item of clothing in an itemized list. And it feels a little "The Matrix" meets Ozzy Osbourne meets Slash, perhaps. - Yeah. - He said he wanted little tiny glasses? - He did. - [Angela] You should wear this to VidCon, dude. - [Anthony] Yeah. - [Olivia] I think you look spectacular. - You'd get so much attention if you wore this to VidCon.

37:54 - You look really good. - Oh, thank you. Actually- - I love the versatility of that coat. It could be... - Yeah. - [Olivia] A coat and a shirt. - In case, maybe if you don't want, if you don't wanna look too scary. - Yeah. And toss it over, like a cape. - Oh my God, day to night. - [Olivia] Yeah. Yeah! - From the office to the club. (sensual music) Thank you, Anthony. (Olivia and Angela screaming) Wow, thank you, Anthony. Do you have any final words for Danny? - Love you, dad. I have some questions, (Angela laughs) but I get to dress you next time, okay?

38:29 - Yeah, that's it. That'll make it fair. - Yeah. - I love this. - Thank you. We love it. We love it. It really works. (rock music) - I would love to walk down the aisle with you one day. - Like at the grocery store, or? We'll talk later. - He is my dream man. - Wow. It seems like you booked. (group clapping) (rock music) - My mom would actually, I think, (beep) with that coat. - I think a lot of moms would (beep) with that coat. - Dude, that's cool. It's like two in one. - Okay, last and certainly not least, do you want to introduce him, Olivia's Mom?

38:57 - Yes. Tommy! (group clapping) (soaring orchestral music) - My parents dressed me like this on the day of my daughter's wedding. - Oh! - Shut up! Wait, your parents wanted you to be old and Italian like "The Godfather" and they wanted me to look like this? - [Olivia] Marlon Brando! - A reference all the kids get. (Angela and crew laugh) I think my dad misunderstood what this prompt was. - What do you think he thought? (laughs) - I think it was like, "Oh, I can put him in a costume. That's fun." Not, "What I wish he would dress like on a daily basis."

39:28 Unless this is what they want on a daily basis. I got paper towels in my mouth. (crew laughs) - [Olivia] Oh! - This is so good. - But you have to dress like this every day, Tommy. - No. - I love it. You look so handsome. - You look gorgeous. - Thanks, Olivia's Mom. - [Angela] I really love it. - Thanks, guys. - You look like a prom king. ♪ Promline ♪ - Well, I'm a prom king at heart, and a paper towel mouth. - Do you have a cummerbund? - No. (crew laughs) There's no cup. I'm just- - No cummerbund. - Wow! Wow! - No cummerbund. I'm bund-free.

40:00 - Bund-free. - Can we take the jacket off to see how it looks? - Yeah, take the jacket off. - My mic's on it, but yeah. - Okay. Suddenly catering. - Caterer. Caterer. - I was outside and I had this on and Emily Rose goes, "Are you a waiter?" (crew laughs) I was like, "Yep, I'm a waiter." - We really shoulda had her just sitting up here with us. - Right. - Thank you so much, Tommy. Do you wanna say anything to your parents? - Love you, guys. - [Spencer] Yeah! (group clapping) - Guys, that's it for our fashion portion of the episode.

40:27 We're gonna cut to a sketch and when we're back, we're gonna touch patties. (laughs) God, this is good. (jaunty music) - I like gay people 'cause I just feel like they need love sometimes. - Yes! (Anthony laughs) - So I went to Pride one year and I took a, you know, "Free Mom Hugs" and so he makes fun of me because I always try to talk to gay people. (beep) (Anthony laughs) - [Jay] So now we're at- - Dude, my mom as well. - It's called Pancake Pantry. So it's a very, very famous restaurant place here in Nashville.

40:59 We get people from all over the world. It's Taylor Swift's favorite place to eat when she's here. Yeah, I think the biggest thing day-to-day is me having to ask everybody how they want their eggs cooked over and over and over again. We said we were gonna write a country song that's something about how do you want your eggs cooked, and do you want patties or links, 'cause we ask it all day. You know what you could do? The Woo-Hoo Girls. Do you know what the Woo-Hoo Girls are? So you know... - Oh. - Nashville has become like, the bachelorette capital.

41:32 - Pause for a second. - Is she talking about Woo girls? - What is that? - A Woo-Hoo Girl. She's about to explain it. - Okay, is she holding her laptop? Is she standing and holding her laptop? - I was gonna say, it seems like she's standing. - She's on her phone like this. - Oh! - Okay. Okay. - Okay, but here's what's crazy. Chanse does Writer's Rooms exactly the same way. - [Director] Would you possibly be able to like, turn your phone this way? Perfect. Thanks. - Yeah. (everyone laughs) - We're all on laptops and he's on a phone.

41:58 Always. - I need to like, walk around. I need to be mobile. - And he's always walking around. - Yeah. And then if the laptop's there, I'm like walking around the kitchen. - That's like, actually crazy. She's doing the exact same thing. - That's awful. - [Anthony] That's so true. - So they all wear white boots and- - Boots! - The jean, you know, all the jean. Jean everything, but white cowboy boots are the thing. So, a couple of summers ago we made up this joke and it was like every time you saw white boots you had to take a shot.

42:21 Like, of course we didn't, but it was a joke. We were like, "We'd be drunk on that," because there's just white boots and jeans stuff everywhere. - Ain't that the truth. - And they're always "Woo-hoo!" So we call 'em the Woo Hoo Girls. Okay, we're thinking a sassy, salty, older waitress with a country song, guessing how his guests want their eggs cooked, and whether they're gonna choose patties or links for their sausage. - [Chanse] Wow. - Wow! - Oh, I see. I see. (group claps) - Okay, a pretty focused- - [Anthony] It's a game.

42:56 - A pretty focused pitch. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Like it wasn't, 'cause I do feel like when my mom pitches stuff, it's like, five different jokes, and this is just one joke. - Yeah. - Yeah, one joke. - Yeah. - And then we took the idea of her wanting it to be a country song and we were like, "Okay, let's paint the joke onto a song." - That's great. - It's so interesting that my dad was like, "Here's this sketch with some jokes and I want it like this." And your mom was like, "So, a country song." (group laughs) - Yeah, yeah.

43:18 - [Tommy] "Do a country song." - [Anthony] Yeah. - Well, actually, it's kind of mirror. It's kind of- - It is kind of mirror. It's really actually crazy. - It's actually getting a little crazy. - Genetics are real. (Angela chuckles) - Okay, we are now going to play Jay's sketch about the egg waitress.

45:10 - Sorry. (jaunty music) - Okay. Now, like Ellen said, we're gonna do the burger portion of the episode. We are going to try to identify what burgers are what without the senses. She mentioned that the senses will give them away, so they have Mickey gloves on, and you have a nose plug if you'd like it. Here are the five burgers you will be getting, not in this order. The Habit, Red Robin, Burger Kinger, Carl's Jr, or Shake Shack. Okay, let's bring out the first burger. Okay, guys, manhandle that burger and figure out where it's from.

45:43 - Okay. - Okay. - Ah. - [Olivia] Oh. - All I did was tongue a pickle. - That sounds like a vegan. - A whatever burger. - I think I can get a taste- (Angela laughs) - It's called Whataburger. - [Anthony] All I'm getting is pickle and lettuce. - I got a lot of pickle and a lot of lettuce. - Was that just a patty? - What happened with yours, guys? I had a bun, I had lettuce, I had meat. There was a tomato. - I can't really figure it out. - Okay, so, we're gonna move on- - There was some like, mayo or some shit. - Hey! (hands clap loudly) (crew laughs) When you hear my voice, clap once!

46:07 (Olivia claps) - We have gloves on. (beep) - Chanse, what do you think that burger was? - I feel like that was Shake Shack. - You, what the (beep)? - Spencer, what do you think that burger was? - That's Red Robin, dude. - Anthony, what do you think that- - I think that was Shake Shack. Yeah. - Tommy? - This feels like a burger that isn't their main thing that they do, but maybe one of the many things. I'm going Red Robin. Uncle Robin. - Okay, you will not know if you were right till the end of this. (bell dings) - Whoa!

46:32 - Sounds great. - Damn. - Three, two, one. - One. - Bite. - Okay, I put the love in my mouth! - I'm eating my glove! (Angela laughs) Why is this so crusty? This one's crusty. - [Chanse] This burger sucked. - [Tommy] Okay, yeah. - That's some hard-ass bread. - That sucks. - I'm assuming I can just wipe my mouth with the gloves at this point, right? (Angela laughs) - Yeah, you can. - [Tommy] Okay. - [Chanse] Was Burger King an option? - [Tommy] Yes. - That feels like- - Oh. That's Burger King. - That's Burger King. - Yeah. - "Was Burger King an option?"

46:59 (group laughs) - Got him. - Men used to go to war. Look at you guys. Okay, Tommy, what kinda burger do you think that was? - That's Burger King, baby. It was whatever. - [Angela] Anthony? - That was Burger King. It was hard and dry and shitty. - So there's a sauce on there that I'm not super familiar with. It tasted a little sweet and I don't know if a Whopper has, I don't remember last time I had a Whopper. - I don't either. - "I don't either." (group laughs) - And there we go. That's proof it works, see? - I'll go Burger King. - Got him.

47:27 - It tasted like Bit Mac sauce. Big Mac sauce. - [Tommy] High five. - Okay, Chanse? - You can't- - Whoa! - Whoa! We found hands. - Oh, that was great. - Chanse, what do you think that burger was? - I thought Burger King, yeah. (buzzer beeps) - Okay. - Okay. - Burger King. Yeah. - Three, two, one. - Three, two, one. - I can't find the meat. - Okay. - This shit sucked. This has gotta be Burger King. - [Anthony] Did you ask for a lettuce wrap? - I hate this. - No. I don't even know what- This is the most bland shit I've ever had in my life.

47:51 - I got the vegan option, which was the- - This tastes like Islands, derogatory. (Angela laughs) (Olivia exclaims) - I feel like this fuckshit is The Habit or some shit. - I think it's The Habit too. - [Angela] Okay. - [Anthony] That was really, really bad. - Chanse thinks it's The Habit. Spencer, you think it's The Habit? Anthony, what do you think it is? - I think it was Red Robin. - Okay. - Red Robin's gotta be the fifth one, dude. (Tommy babbles) - Yeah. - Tommy, what was that? - This'll be a Shake Shack. (bell dings) - Shake Shack's good. Shake Shack's a good burger.

48:17 - Shake Shack's a good burger. - There it is. (Chanse laughs) - Okay, guys, I know you have a burger sitting in the driveway, (Spencer laughs) but before that, I do wanna give you a little bit of like a point check. One of you is in the lead and has gotten two of them right. And that's Tommy Bowe. (bell dings) - What the (beep)? - Whoa! - I don't even like burgers! - Three, two, one, down the hatchet. - Oh. - Oh. - I missed it. Wait, where is the burger? (Angela laughs) - Again, Angela, it's "down the hatch." - Down the hatch. - Whoops.

48:44 - Down the hatchet? - I wouldn't know. - I do that every time. - Okay, I like this one. - [Olivia] Oh! - This one's pretty good. - This is- - You think this is good? - This is crazy. - Wow. - See, this to me tastes like what I imagine Burger King tastes like. - Okay. - Do I taste like a barbecue or something? - No. - I'm going to use my tongue to grab the burger. (group laughs) - Absolutely had to. - Ah. (Angela laughs) I found some of it. - [Angela] Okay. - The bun sucks. - Tommy. - [Tommy] Yeah? - Our superstar, what is this giving?

49:12 - This one's Burger King. I screwed up last time. This is Burger King. That's the point I didn't get right so far. And I don't know what I said last time, nor do I remember that burger, so I'm just gonna lose that other point. (Angela and Anthony laugh) - Okay, Anthony. - I think this is Carl's Jr. - Carlo's Jr? - [Chanse] Ooh. - It has little bit of a charred flavor on the burger, I'm getting. - [Spencer] I think you're right. - I think it was thrown on the grill. - God, we gotta get Ellen on the programming team now.

49:36 - Yeah. - [Anthony] Mm. - Spencer? - I'm gonna go with Anthony's, Carl's Jr. - Great. And, Chanse? - I'll go with Burger King. - Okay. (bells dings) (buzzer beeps) - I gotta pose. - Three, two, one. - Three, two, one. - Oh. That's a different flavor. - I think this is The Habit. - [Anthony] I think this is this The Habit too. - Oh, that's delicious. Finally. Goddamn! (Angela laughs) - There's like a spice or something. - [Spencer] Oh yeah, there is a spice. - You're killing me. - Goddamn! That's good! - Well, to me this is pickle forage.

49:57 - There's a pepper in there. - This is like pickle and mushroom forage. - Whoo! - Chanse, how you feeling? You've been quiet. - I'm gonna go Red Robin. (Angela chuckles) - Okay. - Hmm. - I'm gonna go with The Habit. - Anthony, what do you think this is? - I think this is Habit. - Oh, God. - I haven't had Habit, but this just seems right. - Okay. - Based on Courtney ordering Habit often and it being a good burger, apparently, this is Habit because this is edible. (Angela laughs) - Okay. - [Spencer] This is Habit. (bell dings) - Is there bun, or? - Yeah.

50:23 - On? - [Tommy] What? - Is there bun on these? - "Is there bun?" (Angela laughs) (beep) - I will say, like- - Whoa. - You guys did not do well. - [Olivia] Yeah. - Oh, great. - Well, except for one person. - One person did well. But like, it is weird that you guys were just so off, and I think it was 'cause of the nose, Spencer. - Yeah. - [Angela] Like, specifically you. - We really couldn't taste anything. It was just textures. - Mm-hmm. - Yeah, Chanse, you got one right. (bell dings) - Damn. - You got Burger King right.

50:44 Anthony, you got one right. - Oh, great. The Habit? - The Habit. Yeah. - [Anthony] Okay. - That was The Habit. - Okay. - A couple of you nailed Red Robin right up top. It's down between Spencer and Tommy. And Tommy takes it with four guesses correct. - Whoa! - Whoo! Damn. (children cheering) - That's really good. - Four out of five? - Spencer, you got two. (bell dings) - How can you get four out of five? - How can you get our out of five? - I know, that's crazy. - Oh, 'cause he changed the one, the Burger King and left the burger- - Yeah, I changed the one. - Okay.

51:05 - That one was definitely Burger King. - Tommy nailed it. - [Chanse] Wow. - Yeah, the first one was Red Robin. - Okay. - Oh. - Got it. - The second one was Carl's Jr. - [Tommy] Yep. - Okay. - The third one, my favorite, Shake Shack. - Yup. - Which was so funny, 'cause you were like, "This is bad." - Yes. - 'Cause it was a smash burger, so it was really a crunchy, crispy. - And you guys really liked the fourth one. You guys love Burger King. - What? - No, we didn't. - No, the Burger King- - We did not like Burger King.

51:28 - [Olivia] Yes, you did. - No, we did. - You did, you did. - That was the one- - They really liked it. - That had sauce on it. - That was the wet one. - Oh, the wet one. - You hated Red Robin. - [Tommy] The wet one. - We hated Red Robin. - Red Robin's was awful. - Yes. - And you guys said the Carl's Jr. one was hard. - Yeah. - Yeah. - It was. - Yeah. - And then the last one, a lot of you nailed, which was The Habit. - And you guys loved it. - I was into it. - It was okay. - Good job, Habit. - [Anthony] I didn't love it.

51:45 - Guys, thank you so much for doing that. I know you can't see or smell or touch right now, but we appreciate you. You're looking at a lot of smiling faces. Okay, we have to thank Tom, we have to thank Danny, we have to thank Ellen, we have to thank Jay. We have to thank Olivia's Mom. Give it up, everybody. (everyone clapping and cheering) - Spencer, could you help me to my car? - I would love to. What's your name? - We call her Olivia's Mom. - I'll tell you when we get to my car. - Okay. - Oh. - Ooh. - Okay. - Okay. - Like that.

52:14 - Guys, this has been great. If you want us to do more stuff that our family tells us to do, we'll do it. Just put it in the comments. Bye! (crew clapping) (soft melancholic music) @jimothyspaghetti: "Does Angela hem her own pants or does the baby Gap do it for her?" (laughs) Okay, members, you're cooking now. - Cori9572: "Olivia gives off the energy of someone who is tenured." Like... (crew laughing) Like, at work? (crew laughing) Oh damn. - @giannadobra5354: "Chanse always looks like he's just farted and he's looking around to make sure no one noticed."

53:02 That's not true. I never fart. I sealed my butthole shut. And that's canon. - Himbo.lasagna says, "The Smosh cast gives me hope as a therapist that I will never be out of a job." Like what? Am I too stupid to get what they're saying? (crew laughs) I think I need to go talk to my therapist about this one, actually. - @megwin1946: "Shayne looks like the yellow M&M but like sadder." (crew laughs) Santa? (laughs) - I know we don't give awards out, but I'm giving an award @jimothyspaghetti. You killed it. (Angela and crew clapping) These were better than last time.

53:45 - But I still think that you could go in deeper. Like, my ego is way too high. Still. (upbeat music) - Wait, there's more content.
