We're gonna need more tables.

We're gonna need more pens.

We're gonna need more
clipboards.

We're gonna need more forms.

We're gonna need more flags.

We are live here outside

"America's Got Talent,"

where this season we are
seeing record-breaking crowds

waiting in line for that shot
to win that million dollars.

Oh, my gosh.

The news is here.

We're gonna need

more stickers.

I'm sorry.
We can't print them any faster.

[alarm blaring]

Good luck.

All right, see you.

So cute. Oh, my God,

Simon has a big head too.

I have a big--
Look at my head,

and look at your head.
Yeah, that's true.

But big heads--
Walking in five minutes.

I've just been told
I have a big head.

It's humongous.
And he's saying five minutes

to go, like, of course.

please welcome Tyra Banks!

Hello.

Heidi Klum!

And Simon Cowell!

[buzzer]

No.
It's gonna need to be louder.

[buzzer]

That's better.

Hello, judges.

I am so nervous, Simon.

I'm so nervous
about this thing.

Stand still, Tyra.

Are we ready to get started?

Well, I'm ready.
Yes.

[cheers and applause]

Are you ready?

Let's go, let's go, let's go!

We never built those big
"X" s, did we?

So who are you, please?

I'm Bryce.

I'm Christian.

I'm Jason,
and we are Hamster Wheel.

Hamster Wheel?

So where are you all from?

We are all from the great

state of Minnesota.

And you built this thing?
Every last piece of it

and bigger

and better every time.

I'm a business analyst.

Ten years ago,

Jason was a professor
in college,

and one of the classes
that Jason taught was this

Rube Goldberg

engineering design class,

and we were quite good at it,

so we just kept on
going with it.

Rube Goldberg machines
started in the '20s

with the cartoonist who was
writing these comic strips

to do these elaborate
chain reaction machines,

and then sometime
in the '60s engineers

and others decided
it would be fun

to make these cartoons

come to life.

We can make that flag
fall softer

by starting at a higher angle.

The machine has to run
perfect without being touched.

We have never been asked before
to get on stage

and do it in one try

without any retakes.

Problem solved.

[laughter]

There we go, [inaudible].
[thud]

That's--that looks bad.

My dream is to be able
to take science and technology

to the biggest audience
that I can,

and being on "AGT"
is an opportunity

to take that
to 10 million people.

Our fingers are crossed
that it's all gonna work out.

Can I ask one question?

What could go wrong?

Anything and everything
can go wrong.

We were worried about
the breeze walking in here.

How many hours a week do you
spend

coming up
with these kind of ideas?

So this machine

took about 300 hours.

Wow.

I think we should get on
with it, don't you?

Yeah, I think

we're ready to go.

[cheers and applause]

We asked Tyra offstage
for her phone,

so we have Tyra's phone
up here,

and then we're gonna ask Simon

if you would please call Tyra

and start the machine?

We assume that you have
Tyra's number.

Is that--is that correct?

Well, I didn't, but I do now.

You can thank us

for that later.

[laughter]
Call me, Simon. Call me.

Simon, if you would please go

ahead and call Tyra,

we should be ready to go.

All right, here we go,

Tyra Banks.

I'm calling. I'm calling.

memorized the entire score to?

Too many.

My name is Maddock Johnson.

I'm 13 years old from
Portsmouth, New Hampshire,

I'm in chess club.

I'm in the school musical.

I was in electronics club.

I do fencing.

The way I got the nickname
Patches

was because
when I was in first grade

I got a fleece jacket, and

every new thing that I did,

I would get a patch,

and my mom would sew it

onto the jacket.

I wrote my first song

when I was seven years old,

and my big dream

is to pick up a patch

for "America's Got Talent."

I starred in our middle school

musical last year,

but this is way bigger
than anything

that I've ever done before.

I'm going to be doing
an original song for you.

That you wrote?

Yes, I wrote this.

And if you won the million

dollars, what would you do?

I would buy tickets

to "Hamilton" on Broadway.

Yes.

What's the song about?

My song is about the essence

of performing.

It's definitely yes for me.

Awesome. Thank you.

And Simon?

Yeah, I have got no idea

Welcome to the next round.

Look, Dad, we made it.

Yeah. My name is Sergei.

I'm 52 years old.

I'm Sasha, and I'm 15.

We are a father-daughter

acrobatic duo from Las Vegas.

I love the lights.

We start performing together

when Sasha was six years old.

We work in street for tips.

Our act today
is based on acrobatics.

There will be some handstands,
some equilibrium,

some foot juggling.

Our job is dangerous.

I feel very big responsibility

for her.

I'm really happy that I have

this special relationship

with my father.

I know that I could talk to him

if I have any problems

even though he can't always
help me with math.

[laughter]

It's amazing to have this
"America's Got Talent"

experience with my father.

It was our dream. This dream,

it will give her future.

I know I'm not gonna be able
to perform

with my father forever,

and I can't stand the fact
that one day

I'm not gonna be able
to.

That makes me tear up.

[moans]

[cheers and applause]

What are your names?

My name's Sergei.

And my name's Sasha,

father-daughter.

Oh. Oh.

Really?

Really.
So how old are you both then?

I'm 15, and my dad is 52.

Wow.

And how long have

you been doing this act?

Ten years, yeah.

We start when she was
six years old.

Wow.

Can I ask a question?

Is this act dangerous?

Yes.
You're not scared at all?

Nope. I trust my dad 100%.

What is the dream?

The dream is to be recognized
anywhere,

like I'll be

in a grocery store,

and somebody's like, "That's

Sasha from 'Got Talent.'

Oh, my God.

I got to get her autograph."

Okay, well, I can't wait
to see this. Good luck.

by saying I was traumatized

but in a really, really

because you--you made it

out alive.

I haven't actually seen an act
like this before,

so I was blown away.

Thank you.
Thank you. Thank you much.

Well done. Howie?

I mean this in
a positive way.

That was so scary.

Yeah.

Yes.

when you started when
she was six, it was easier.

Yes, it was definitely easy.

And it's just getting tougher

And I'm getting heavier

Heidi, what did you think?

You are such

an amazing entertainer.

I don't think I was breathing

I thought it was amazing.
Well done.

Thank you. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much.

Simon?

I agree with

what you just said.

Both of you, particularly you,
you've got so much personality.

Thank you.
And no question or doubt

the following day people are

up to you

and saying, "Yeah, I saw you on
'America's Got Talent.'"

Yes.
It's gonna happen.

I can feel that.
Good.

The only question I would say

is does it get more dangerous?

Yes.
Much more?

More dangerous, more props.

Fire?

No, not fire. We don't end up

[soft acoustic guitar music]

My hero's got to be my dad,

'cause everything I do,

I mostly do it with him.

My dad's my best friend.

On my childhood,

I went to school

and tried to learn music,

and I never get to play

because my father couldn't

afford to buy me a trumpet.

When I came here,
my only dream,

it was try
to give him everything,

all the opportunity

that we didn't have.

There was a small garage
that we have,

and I built up
with a little karaoke,

and then Angel and I sing

together, and I loved it.

The first time
I couldn't take it,

to be honest with you.

I used to cry.

When I sing, I feel like

I'm free

and that I can fly everywhere.

I think you're a good

songwriter.

What has been the moment
that's been the low

The low is I've been out

on my own since I was 18,

and I've had times and--

over the years

where I'd--I haven't had

enough money to eat,

like this

that much better.

Do you guys see this?

I'm Michaela Phillips,
I'm 15 years old,

and I'm a singer
from Canyon Lake, California.

Oh, my goodness.

Today I brought
my little brother,

my mom, and my dad.

My dad is a firefighter.

My mom teaches drama class.

All right, can you
believe we're here?

I do not believe that
we're here right now.

She always sang.

She was just a singer
from the get-go.

She sings everything.

It's annoying when at, like,
3:00 she's singing.

In the morning,
let's specify in the morning.

Thank you, bye.

When Michaela was

three years old,

she saw "America's Got Talent"
for the first time,

and she was just

mesmerized by it.

She was just on that screen

constantly,

and she would turn and say

she wanted to go on this.

I fell in love with it,
the sights, the sounds,

everything about it.

I just knew that it was

something I wanted to do.

I have never done anything
this big before,

and I'm so extremely nervous.

I'm like...

[sighs]

All that hard work
that you've put in,

we are so very proud
of you now.

We love you.
I love you too.

I just want to sing for people
and have them hear me

and be like,

"Wow, like, I felt that,"

and I just want to perform
for everybody.

And...

[cheers and applause]

I am going to just be
myself,

and I'm gonna show them
that this is me

and sing my heart out.
