Announcer:
Ladies and gentlemen,
Dr. Ken Jeong.

Thank you.

Good evening.

Thank you so much.

Patiently waiting
in the shadows

are six secret voices,

all claiming
to be brilliant singers.

However, some of them
are liars with voices so rotten,

they should be taken
to the dump.

Welcome to America's
brand‐new guessing game,

"I Can See Your Voice."



Through a series of clues...

Lip Sync Challenge!

Secret Studio!

Interrogation.

Girl, you know you lyin'.

...and without ever

hearing them sing a note...

I don't even think
he has vocal cords.

Okay, please, let me tell
the jokes. I'm feeling insecure.

...could you identify bad
singers...

Deray Davis,
and music superstar
Rick Springfield.

Get ready to play
"I Can See Your Voice,"

where spotting terrible talent
can make you rich.

( crowd cheering )

Welcome
to "I Can See Your Voice"!

Helping tonight's
contestant

weed out the bad singers
throughout this investigation

is our glamorous panel
of celebrity detectives.

‐ Yeah.
‐ Whoo!

Now let's meet
tonight's contestant

hoping to take home
$100,000, Tillman

from Charlotte,
North Carolina.

Yes!

‐ Yes! Yeah!
‐ North Carolina!

Whoo!

Yes, Tillman.

I'm from North Carolina, too.

‐ Awesome!
‐ Tell us about yourself,
Tillman.

What do you do for a living?

I've been a flight attendant
for the last 20 years.

‐ Wow.
‐ All right.

Tillman: I'm also the father
of a 27‐year‐old

who's also in the military.
She's in the Army.

I'm also a grandfather.

Cheryl:
Oh! That's so great.

( applause )

Tillman,
what would you do
with all that cash?

I would like to set up a trust
fund for my grandson Aiden.

That way his college education
and everything will be taken
care of.

There'll be no worries,
no stress, so that's what
I'm looking to do.

‐ So great.
‐ So good.

‐ We are all rooting
for you, Tillman.
‐ Thank you.

Pay attention.
The good singers will be
telling the truth,

but the bad singers
could be lying about anything.

You have to find and eliminate
the bad singers

who are trying to fool you.

So let's get
the investigation going

and reveal
those secret voices.

Number one
is the Camp Counselor.

When she isn't
counting campers,

she's licensing her songs
for movies and television.

Camp Counselor looks like
one of my ex‐girlfriends,

and she couldn't sing.

Ken:
Number two, it's
the Cruise Ship Singer.

When she's not entertaining
the high seas,

she's singing back‐up vocals
for Arcade Fire on daytime TV.

I'm just not buying it.

You can't cruise.
Not in that dress,
it's impossible.

Ken: Number three,
it's Copycat Katy.

‐ She's Katy Perry's
body double...
‐ Oh!

...whose career took off
singing "Silent Night"

at the Rockefeller Christmas
tree lighting.

Copycat may be going a little
too far with the blue hair.

Ken:
Number four,
it's Musical Bars.

He is a corrections officer

leading a singing and acting
workshop for inmates.

Probably got some singin'
in there locked up.

‐ And he needs to release it.
‐ Oh, uh‐huh.

Ken:
Number five, it's The Gamer.

This formerly shy gamer

sings as she streams,
racking up millions of views
on TikTok.

I feel like she is going
to blow us away with some
incredible vocals.

Ken:
Number six,
it's the Stunt Man.

When he's not getting
set on fire in Hollywood,

he's a session singer
at one of Nashville's most
famous studios.

‐ He looks kind of badass.
‐ I agree.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

So, here are the rules.

There are six secret voices
up on that stage.

But you will never know
exactly how many good

and how many bad singers
there will be.

Your job is to use clues
to eliminate all the bad
singers,

and for each one you eliminate,
you will earn $10,000.

Yes. Yes!

‐ Yes!
‐ Get that money.

By the end of the show,
you want to have eliminated

all of the bad singers
so that the last one standing

is a good singer.

And if they're a good singer,

‐ you could win $100,000.
‐ Whoo!

Yes!

Oh, man, I need that.

I need that.

Good luck, Tillman.
We're all rooting for you.

Thank you, thank you.

Okay, America, let's get
the investigation going

with our first three‐way
Lip Sync Challenge.

Come on.

‐ Yes!
‐ All right. Bring 'em out.
All right.

Remember, to win $10,000
on this round,

you want to find
a bad singer.

And, just so you know,
all of our good singers

will be lip syncing
to their own voices.

But, pay attention,
because all of the bad singers

will be lip syncing
to someone else's lovely voice.

See if you can spot
the difference.

Lip syncing "The Middle"
by Zedd, Grey, and Maren
Morris,

it's Camp Counselor,

Cruise Ship Singer,

and Copycat Katy.

‐ Whoo!
‐ Whoo!

Let's see it, yo.

I wanna see it.

Camp Counselor,
Cruise Ship Singer,
and Copycat Katy.

Okay, Camp Counselor
had a lot of the mic
moving away from the mouth.

Working the mic,
but, like, almost to much?

So, I'm gonna say
she can't sing.

Yeah, Camp Counselor's voice

didn't seem to match
her outside.

‐ Adrienne: It was husky
and raspy in the intro.
‐ Yes. Yes.

While I didn't expect
that voice,

what came in as a huskier,
sexier sounding voice,

may possibly be what's intended
to throw us off.

‐ Ooh.
‐ Yeah.

I think it's possible
'cause she's a camp counselor,

kids around,
"Get out the pool! "

Voice has to be‐‐
the voice‐‐

"If you don't get‐‐
I swear to God."

Cruise Singer, to me,
her voice matched

‐ what she looks like
more than, uh, the other two.
‐ Really?

‐ You know, it's just
something you feel.
‐ Ooh.

I expected a more soulful
sounding voice from her.

It was more of a pop vocal
that she was lip syncing to,

which made me think
she might be

one of the bad singers
trying to, eh‐eh,

52 fake us.

She came out here
and blew us away,

and I feel like that is
how she'd sound,

but feelings aren't facts.

Copycat Katy, I think,
is a great performer.

Was really fun to watch her.

But I wasn't feeling
that she could actually sing.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I felt the exact opposite.
She was moving with a good
amount of comfort,

she was lip syncing
the runs as well, as if,

perhaps, she would have
sung the song herself.

‐ I don't believe it.
‐ Me either.

Well, not to drop names.
I did a movie with Meryl Streep.

She played a singer,
and one of the first things
she wanted to know

was, "How do you address
the microphone?"

Copycat Katy, the microphone
is pointed at her chin.

Is a microphone
pointed at your chin bad?

‐ Yes.
‐ Oh.

‐ Ooh. Oh, man.
‐ Tillman?

It's time to make a decision.

In front of you,
you will see each secret voice's
name and number.

So, tap on the one
you want to eliminate,
then lock it in.

Camp Counselors usually
might have to do some singing
for the kids.

But the only thing that threw me
off about Camp Counselor

was the fact that
she was a little bit off
on her lip syncing.

Mm.

Cruise Ship Singer
blew me away.

I mean, I think
the Cruise Ship Singer's

the only one
that I'm very positive about,

‐ out of all three.
‐ Tillman.

Copycat Katy has
a strong stage presence,

but is it just that?
Is it just a performance?

( sighs )

I'm gonna go in a whim
and I'm gonna say

I think Copycat Katy
is the bad singer.

‐ Yeah, we're with you!
‐ You with me?

Let's go with Copycat Katy,
and I'm gonna lock it in.

All right, let's do this.
Let's do this!

Copycat Katy, show us what
you've been hiding.

And, remember,
bad is good, good is bad.

Now, Tillman,
have you identified
a bad singer

and made a cool $10,000?

Or a good singer,
and won a boatload of nothing?

( laughs )

Copycat Katy, let's...

All:
See your voice!

I tell ya, if she can sing,
you are the only one
that saw it in her.

I know.
I will be right.

‐ Whoo.
‐ Okay.

I'm nervous on this one.
I'm nervous.

Whoo.

♪ Come and show them

♪ Make 'em go,
"Oh, oh, oh" ♪

♪ As you shoot across
the sky‐y‐y... ♪

Oh, my God,
that's horrible! Stop!

‐ ♪ Baby, you're a firework!
‐ Tillman: Yes!

‐ Cheryl: Yes!
‐ Whoo!

Copycat Katy,
you are a beautiful disaster.

‐ And for that, Tillman,
you won $10,000.
‐ Yes! Yes! Yes!

Whoo! Oh!

What‐‐ what made you
decide to do the show?

I mean, I've been her double,
but, like, to actually,

like, dress up and,
like perform, like,

that would never happen
'cause I can't sing.

So I mean,
of course I want to do this.

I get to act like
I was a superstar.

We loved it!

Give it up for Copycat Katy!

Don't go anywhere.
After the break,

we'll be getting
a closer look

at our next batch
of secret voices.

And, with any luck,
earning Tillman $100,000.

Yes!

Get involved.

This is "I Can See Your Voice"

only on FOX.

That was hilarious.

♪ Baby, I'm a firework

Welcome back to
"I Can See Your Voice,

the only show
where spotting terrible talent

can make you really rich.

Tillman, before the break,
you eliminated Copycat Katy

‐ and won $10,000.
‐ Yes! Yes! Yes!

And, remember,
your goal is to find as many
bad singers as you can

because if the last one standing
is a good singer,

you could win $100,000.

Yes, yes, oh!

Well, it is time
for our second Lip Sync
challenge.

‐ I love that note.
‐ Yes.

‐ All right.
‐ Oh.

Performing "Ain't Too Proud
to Beg" by the Temptations...

‐ Oh, I love it.
‐ ...give it up
for Musical Bars,

Gamer, and Stunt Man.

‐ Drop the mic.
‐ Oh, my God.
Give it up, Musical Bars,

and Gamer,
and the adorable Stuntman.

Adrienne: Now, Tillman,
there's a big question mark
on the Stunt Man.

I tried to go over
what was said when they first
introduced him to us.

He is a stunt man in Los Angeles
but he sings in Nashville.

‐ Taye: Ooh.
‐ Mm.

Now that just doesn't match.

That's‐‐ that's my point.
Something ain't right there.

I think Stunt Man's
trying to fool us.

Well, when he was singing,
he was, like, coming in
on the off‐beat.

And he was nailing,
which I thought, "Whoa,

if I was lip syncing,
I wouldn't be able to do that."

Yeah, with
a lot of good singers,

they want to sing
over the lip sync.

And I seen that comin' out.

A couple more lyrics,
he was gonna be out here.

I think he was
a really great lip syncer.

Dude, well done.
I think that was his real voice.

Gamer, she was on it,
but she was almost
over‐enunciating.

‐ Yeah.
‐ Mm.

But maybe she's
doing that to throw me.

‐ Mm, Gamer.
‐ Are you?

Are you, Gamer?

I think the bad singer
is the Gamer.

‐ Really?
‐ I'm going with my gut.

Right. Maybe
go with your brain.

Just in this one,
to help Tillman.

Gamer, I like.
I think she's got
that stage presence.

I think she can sing.

I think she's more of a athlete
in a singer's body.

Musical Bars,
great person, I'm sure.

‐ Ken: Yeah?
‐ Bad singer.

You don't felt like
his vocal matched his face.

‐ No, no.
‐ Really?

‐ Me either.
‐ When he was begging.

He's obviously never been
in a relationship.

He didn't have a beg
in his face.

When he was like
♪ "Please"...

it was more like,
"Please."

Very valid point.
Very valid point.

I would say Musical Bars is...
( smacks lips )

If I meet you in prison,
this didn't happen.

All right, it is time
to make a decision.

Oh, man.

Gosh, yeah, Musical Bars,
you know what I'm saying,

has me teeter‐tottering
a little bit,

you know what I mean?
I feel like I'm behind bars

and I'm ready to ask for help.
Help!

Get me outta here!
Give me this money!

I think the Gamer
might be the bad singer.

Ooh.
I agree, I agree.

But I was also thinking
about what Adrienne was saying

about Stunt Man,
you know, working in LA

and then singing in Tennessee.

You know what I'm saying?
I can't see that happening.

‐ I'm gonna go
with Stunt Man.
‐ Yes.

‐ Lock it in.
‐ I'm locking it in.

‐ I'm locking him in.
Come on!
‐ Adrienne: Follow your heart.

‐ Come on, baby!
Come on! Come on!
‐ Adrienne: Follow your heart.

Tillman, have you correctly
identified a bad singer

and made yourself
another $10,000?

( groans )

Stunt Man, let's...

All:
See Your Voice!

Man, this is nerve‐racking.

‐ You thought he could sing?
‐ Yes.

I don't think
he can sing.

( music playing )

Uh‐oh.
Oh, it's a slow jam.

Please be awful.

♪ Ain't no sunshine
when she's gone ♪

Ooh!

♪ Ain't no sunshine

♪ She's always
gone too long ♪

I knew it!

♪ Any time she goes away

Yes, sing Stunt Man.
Sing it.

‐ I knew better.

♪ This house

Wow, wow, wow.

‐ Wow, whoa.
‐ How could you do this to us?

You sing in Nashville
and you're a stuntman in LA?

Yeah, so, I'm a full‐time
stuntman in LA

and in my off time,
I go to Nashville
and do sessions.

I think you'll be doing less
stunt work after this.

You're an amazing singer.

Give it up for the Stunt Man.

Amazing.
Amazing job.

All right, Tillman,
you missed out on $10,000.

But your total is still
$10,000.

Yes, yes, yes!

‐ Yes!
‐ You still have
four remaining

secret voices
left to choose from.

You want answers,
I want answers,

and let's get them
after the break.

Keep it locked here, America,
to "I Can See Your Voice."

Welcome back
to "I Can See Your Voice."

Tillman, you still have
four remaining secret voices
left to choose from.

And, remember,
your goal is to eliminate

as many bad singers
as you can

because if the last one standing
is a good singer,

you could win $100,000.

Yes, yes, yes!

In order to reveal more clues

about our remaining
secret voices,

I have stolen their phones,

but you only get
to check out one.

Let's play Unlock My Life.

What you will see
is an exclusive video

from inside
the secret voice's phone,

revealing vital pieces
of personal information
about themselves,

all with their voice
slightly altered.

Tillman, who are you
gonna choose?

( sighs )
I'm gonna say
Cruise Ship Singer

is definitely a good singer,

but I'm curious about
Camp Counselor and Musical Bars.

But Gamer's got a nice
presence to the stage.

Looks like she's ready
to just take it to the audience.

But that could be a gaming
audience or a singing audience.

We gonna find out
about Gamer.

Yeah, here we are.

Ken: Pay attention, people.
Good singers will be
telling the truth,

but the bad singers
will be trying to trick you.

Tillman, let's find out
what Gamer is all about.

‐ Yeah!
‐ ( music playing )

( distorted voice )
I was an only child,

so I had to find ways
to entertain myself.

Singing, dancing,
the full works.

I joined TikTok in 2019,

and I decided my angle
was gonna be playing
iPhone games.

One day, I decided to post
a video of me singing.

That one video of me singing
went viral.

I don't know.
I‐‐ I don't think
she's a singer.

Now I have 26,000 followers.

That's a lot of followers.

My followers are always
sending me song requests.

It's like music
to my ears.

I love being
their singing gamer.

Ooh.

I love how she included
the fact that her followers

were always asking her
for song requests, which is
a real thing.

‐ Oh.
‐ 25.9 thousand followers.

She's gotta be doing
something on there

that they're following
her for.

‐ Taye: I think it's too much,
too forced.
‐ You think it's too much?

It all looked
a little too general.

‐ I didn't get a vibe.
I don't get a singing‐‐
‐ I agree.

Singer vibe.
And I'm not a gamer,
but I've seen it.

Um...

They don't sit on the couch,

They sit in, like,
weird chairs

on the ground
close to the TV.

I don't think
she's a gamer.

I'm unsure about Gamer.
That didn't help me.

But I think I know for sure

that Musical Bars
is a bad singer.

The vocals sounded like it could
be his voice, though.

I agree with you,
Rick Springfield.

Really?

Yeah, I'm just not buying it.

Tillman, it's time
to make a decision.

Bear in mind, Tillman,
you can eliminate any of the
four remaining secret voices.

I'm still kind of intrigued
with Gamer

because even though
she has a lot of followers,

I'm not quite sure
what those followers
are following her for.

‐ Maybe she's
a good player.
‐ Mm.

I had my doubts
about Camp Counselor
from the beginning.

She was off
on her lip syncing a little bit.

‐ Adrienne: Yeah.
‐ I've been feeling
pretty confident

about Cruise Ship Singer.

From her lip syncing
performance, I was sold.

So I'm not making
a mistake again.

Rick said that he suspects
that Musical Bars
is the bad singer...

I'm gonna go
with Musical Bars.

Let's lock it in.

Yeah! Yeah!
Come on! Come on!

Oh, boy.

Musical Bars, let's...

All:
See your voice!

‐ He looks nervous, right?
‐ He does, yeah.

( music playing )

Ballad, ugh.

Lord.

‐ Look at his face!
Like he killed it.
‐ Wow. That was amazingly bad.

‐ Tillman, that was worth
$10,000!
‐ Oh, man. Yes!

‐ Whoo!
‐ Bringing your grand total
to $20,000.

‐ Tillman, you are still
in this game.
‐ Yes! Wow.

‐ Ken: Musical Bars.
‐ Hello.

‐ Who are you really?
‐ I actually teach acting
and comedy workshops

‐ to incarcerated youths.
‐ Oh, wow. That's so great.

‐ That's amazing.
‐ That's dope, yeah.

Give it up for Musical Bars.
You're amazing.

Amazing. Okay, Tillman,
you are now three decisions away
from $100,000.

‐ Ooh, yes. Oh.
‐ Yes, yes.

Let's find out
if Tillman can pull it off

after the break.
Don't go anywhere.

This is "I Can See Your Voice"!

Yeah! Yes!

‐ Whoo!
‐ Yes, yes, yes.

Welcome back to
"I Can See Your Voice."

‐ Tillman?
‐ Yes?

You have now eliminated
one good singer

and two bad singers,

leaving you with three remaining
secret voices to choose from.

Camp Counselor,
Cruise Ship Singer,
and Gamer.

None of us know how many
are good and how many are bad,

so you've got
to tread carefully now

if you're going to end up
with a good one at the end

and win that $100,000.

It's time for Secret Studio.

‐ Whoo!
‐ Secret Studio, y'all.

‐ Yes! Yes.
‐ Secret Studio.

We sent all of our voices
into our Secret Studio

to perform their finest solo
whisper.

‐ ( chuckles )
‐ So you'll be hearing
their real voice,

but just the non‐singing
breathy parts

without any of that annoying
vocal cord vibration.

Who would you like to see
going into the Secret Studio?

Camp Counselor was on my radar.
I'm still suspicious of her.

‐ Mm‐hmm.
‐ Tillman: Gamer I'm still
a little iffy.

Cruise Ship Singer
I feel solid about.

I think I wanna find out
more about the Camp Counselor.

I'm interested to see
what she can whisper.

Okay. All right, Tillman.
Panel, stay sharp.

You may pick up
on some vital clues.

It's Camp Counselor.

( clearing throat )

( whispering )
How much wood

would a woodchuck chuck

‐ if a woodchuck
could chuck wood?
‐ Wait, what?

‐ The extra enunciation.
‐ What did you make of that?

Her voice was still deep like
it was when she was singing.

I think she's good.

I agree.
She's a great whisperer.

Really great whisperer.

I think she's a good singer.

I didn't believe it at all.

Overexaggerating,
overenunciated.

‐ Okay, okay.
‐ She did not overact!

A a fellow overactor,
I agree. It's great.

‐ Great job. I love it.
‐ Cheryl: During the lip sync,

she winked to the camera.
My husband says never trust
anybody who winks.

‐ Never tru‐‐ okay.
‐ Cheryl: That's what he told
me. That's what he told me.

As he winks when he leaves...

See?

Tillman, it is time to make
a decision.

I have my reservations about
Camp Counselor,

and I've had those reservations
from the get‐go.

That video kinda showed me
a little something.

‐ Mm.
‐ So I think I'm gonna go with
Camp Counselor

is a bad singer.

‐ Lock it in, lock it in.
‐ Lock it, lock it.

Lock it in.

Come on! Come on, baby!
Come on! Come on!

Come on, Camp Counselor!
Come on! Yes!

Camp Counselor, let's...

All: See your voice!

‐ Cheryl, they have a piano.
‐ I know. Maybe she can play
the piano but can't sing.

That don't mean anything.
People have pianos that can't
sing.

Still in the game.

‐ Adrienne: Whoo!
‐ Camp Counselor,
who are you really?

I'm a camp counselor,
but I'm also a singer
songwriter,

and I write music
for TV and film.

‐ Okay.
‐ My goodness.
Just so well‐rounded.

Give it up for the lovely
Camp Counselor.

‐ Beautiful.
‐ I knew it!

We are down to our last two
secret voices,

and Tillman is about to make
the most important elimination
of the game.

Get involved.
This is "I Can See Your Voice,"
only on FOX.

Welcome back to
"I Can See Your Voice."

Tillman, you have now eliminated
two good singers

and two bad singers.

You only have two secret voices
remaining.

They could both be good,
they could both be bad,

it could be one of each,
we just don't know.

Remember, bad is good,
good is bad.

If there's a bad one up there,
you need to get rid of them
right now,

which brings us
to our final challenge,
Interrogation.

‐ All right, yeah.
‐ My favorite one.

Tillman, you're about to get
the opportunity to grill

either one of our remaining
secret voices,

Cruise Ship Singer
or Gamer

and hear their speaking voice
for the first time.

‐ Tillman: Ooh.
‐ Ken: You get 30 seconds to ask
whatever you want.

But then you have to eliminate
one of them.

Who do you want
to interrogate?

We saw a little bit
about Gamer.

We haven't found out anything
about Cruise Ship Singer.

‐ Exactly. So smart.
‐ So I'm thinking let's go
with Cruise Ship Singer

so we can find out
some more about her.

Okay. Cruise Ship Singer,
prepare yourself.

‐ We like that.
‐ I agree with that.

All right, Tillman,
your 30 seconds

starts in three, two,

one, go.

Okay, what would be
your dream duet?

Uh, probably Stevie Wonder.

‐ Tillman: Stevie Wonder?
Awesome.
‐ Yeah.

Which star is your inspiration?

‐ I love Ella Fitzgerald.
‐ Ah.

And then how many people
have you performed in front of
and where?

All over,
but on the cruise ships
about 1,700 people.

‐ Whoa.
‐ What does your family
think of your voice?

‐ Ugh.
‐ I liked it. I liked
the Ella Fitzgerald answer.

‐ Yes.
‐ I thought it was
very specific.

And it would be hard to just
come up with that on the spot.

‐ Yeah.
‐ Deray: What in the Titanic
is going on?

‐ 1,700 people on a cruise ship?
‐ Yeah, there's‐‐

‐ I didn't know it was 1,700.
‐ No, yeah. There's like a lot‐‐
yeah, it's a lot.

I think get rid of Gamer.

Tillman, it is time to make
a decision.

Who do you think is a bad
singer?

Cruise Ship Singer
or Gamer?

‐ Who you guys feeling?
‐ Adrienne: I think that one
is a good singer

‐ and one is a bad singer.
‐ But which one?

‐ Cheryl, I don't know!
‐ Adrienne, which one?

Oh, my God.
This is really nerve‐racking.

I'd say the good singer
is Cruise Ship.

I think she's too good,
she's too comfortable.

‐ To be bad.
‐ Yeah. She knows what
she's doing.

I've already been fooled once.

No, I'm gonna go against
what I was feeling earlier.

Earlier I had been feeling
like Cruise Ship Singer
was a safe bet.

But looking at the presentation,
it kind of reminds me
of the Stunt Man.

Didn't look the role,
he was the role.

She's looking the role.
I'm thinking she might be trying
to fool me.

‐ Oh, God.
‐ And I'm thinking that Gamer

might have more to offer
than we know.

My final decision,

I'm gonna eliminate
Cruise Ship Singer.

Let's lock it in.

‐ All right.
‐ Oh!

Ken: That means Gamer will be
going through to the finale.

No biggie or anything
like that,

but you're about to duet
with Rick Springfield.

‐ So get ready, Gamer.
‐ Hey, Rick!

But first, Cruise Ship Singer,
we need to know the truth

behind that voice.
Cruise Ship Singer, let's...

All: See your voice!

( music playing )

Uh‐oh.
She gave me that look, Deray.

Cruise Ship Singer,
that was pitch perfect,

which is why
he's lying on the floor.

‐ It's not too late.
‐ Tillman, you missed out
on $10,000,

leaving your total
at $20,000.

Cruise Ship Singer,
who are you really?

I've been a cruise ship singer
for five years.

‐ Wow.
‐ Ken: Wow.

And for crowds that are like
huge crowds, like,
over 1,700 people.

‐ Absolutely, yeah.
‐ And you really worked with
Arcade Fire?

Yes, I did. It was fantastic.
They were so nice.

‐ It was great.
‐ Give it up for
the Cruise Ship Singer.

‐ Wow.
‐ Tillman, we are down to
our last secret voice.

And if you have successfully
eliminated all of
the bad singers,

and if Gamer turns out
to be a good singer,

you could be taking home
$100,000.

But first, you've got one
massive decision to make...

after the break.

‐ Oh, man.
‐ You're watching
"I Can See Your Voice."

Welcome back to
"I Can See Your Voice."

We're down to our last
secret voice‐‐ Gamer.

Tillman, it's time to make your
final and biggest decision
of all.

All game long, Tillman,
You've been trying to find
and eliminate the bad singers

so that a good singer is left
standing up there

to duet with
Rick Springfield.

Now, for the first time
in this game,

you're hoping Gamer
is a good singer.

Here's the decision
you have to make.

You can either walk away
with the $20,000,

guaranteed to go home with some
real life‐changing money,

or you can play on
for one final round,
our grand finale.

And if Gamer turns out
to be a good singer,

your winnings will shoot up
to $100,000.

( groans )

However, if you get it wrong
and Gamer turns out to be
a bad singer,

you will go home
with nothing.

Panel, this is a moment
of truth.

We're trying to get Aiden
some money.

That's the goal.
The goal is getting Aiden
some money.

I'm not sure. I'm, like,
I'm stumped on this one.

‐ Okay.
‐ I think I'm gonna go home.

'Cause this is very difficult.
Her video didn't tell me much.

I don't know what it told you.
With those clues alone,

she must be a bad singer
and that was all, like,
smoke and mirrors.

‐ Yes, yes.
‐ I feel like you should
take the money and run, man.

I'm a gambler,
but I don't like this bet.

Because you've eliminated a lot
of really great singers.

‐ Panel: Yeah.
‐ Definitely.

So, I don't have a good feeling

that she's a great singer.

‐ Tillman, how old is Aiden?
‐ My grandson is four years old.

You invest that money.
It's gonna be a lot more
when he's a man.

‐ Yeah, take the $20,000.
‐ Yeah, that's what I'm
thinking.

Invest that for him.
By the time he's even of age,

just imagine what $20,000
will be by then.

‐ Compound interest, okay?
Compound interest.
‐ Exactly.

Taye: Exactly.

Ken: Tillman, so you've heard
from the panel.

Which way are you leaning?

Me being here on this show...

is a lot bigger
than just me.

I gotta think about my family.
Ahem.

I gotta think about
my grandson.

And I'm gonna do
the right thing.

Yeah, man.

I'm gonna take that $20,000
to my grandson.

Locking it in.

‐ Whoa.
‐ Whoo.

Oh, man, I tell you, Tillman,
you've‐‐

you've been a great
contestant tonight.

You won $20,000.

That just happened.
That is all yours.

‐ Easy money.
‐ Ahem. There was lint
in the air

that got in my eyes.
I wasn't crying.

Something got caught
in my throat.

Deray:
You know what's crazy, dawg?

‐ Some of that lint was, like‐‐
‐ It came over here, too.

heading this way.

But right now
is the moment of truth.

Rick Springfield,
please go and join Gamer
on the stage of truth

for the grand duet finale.

I will remind you
if Gamer is a good singer,

you would have taken home
$100,000.

But if Gamer is a bad singer,

then you made the right choice
because your money is safe.

Singing "Jessie's Girl,"
please go wild

for Rick Springfield
and Gamer.

Whoo!

I do not think
this girl can sing.

Good night!
