The Masked Singer (2019–…): Season 2, Episode 13 - Season Finale: And the Winner Takes It All and Takes It Off - full transcript

We started
with 16 undercover stars.

‐ Johnny Weir! Ninja! Laila Ali!
‐ One by one,

‐ they've been eliminated and unmasked.
‐ Dr. Drew! Paul Shaffer!

Sherri Shepherd!
Raven‐Symoné!

Kelly Osbourne!
Mrs. Patti LaBelle!

Michelle Williams!
Ana Gasteyer!

Victor Oladipo! Seal!

You were purr‐fect, darling.

Bye‐bye, baby.

In tonight's season finale,

three finalists
take the stage one last time.



Fox.

I didn't know until right now

exactly how much
winning this would mean.

Flamingo.

I was told I would never
amount to anything.

‐ We love you.
‐ And Rottweiler.

I've said that you were the strongest
vocalist. You did not disappoint.

I feel like I've already won.

It's an epic fight
for the Golden Mask.

And the identity of all three
singers will be revealed.

‐
‐ Who is it?

It's finally time
to find out...

‐ who... ‐ I'm gonna
go with Darren Criss.

‐ is...
‐ Jessica Simpson.



‐ behind...
‐ Jamie Foxx!

‐ ...the mask?
‐ My God!

‐ Come on!
‐ ♪ Hey ♪

Welcome to the night
we have all been waiting for,

the grand finale
of "The Masked Singer."

♪ Who is that?
Who is that? ♪

‐ Whoo! ‐ We had a lot of
colorful characters this season

who have all come back
to support the final three.

‐ Yeah!
‐ Tonight, we put a end

to the nation's family fights,

office bets, and Twitter wars

as you try and solve
this crazy who‐sungit.

You guys ready?

The time has come.

Our second season
all comes down

to a power trio
of finalists.

A Flamingo...

a Fox...

‐ Fox!
‐ ...and a Rottweiler,

all competing
for a Golden Mask trophy.

Tonight, we will be
crowning a champion.

‐ Whoo!
‐ It's the finale.

‐ I can't believe it.
‐ Let's do this.

I don't want anyone to go home.

I just want this to keep going

week after week.
Is that weird?

If you click Nick's shoes
together three times,

and say,
"There's no place like home."

There you go.

Okay, we put the spotlight
on a multitalented performer.

He's the first
of our three finalists

hoping to win
the Golden Mask trophy.

Here's your last chance
to figure out who is the Fox.

All right, little one,
chapter seven,

Fairytale Ending.

I've loved singing and dancing
my tail off every week.

I feel like whoever you are underneath
that mask, you are a legend.

Now, with this final
performance,

I have one mission‐‐ to win.

No matter what I do,
I try to make sure

that I am the most prepared
person in the room.

I'm obsessing over
every detail,

every dance move,
every kick ball change,

every jazz hand, all of it.

Loves his detail,
attention to detail.

‐ That's right.
‐ Perfectionist.

Winning will allow me to
showcase my skills as a singer

and finally write
my own story.

I'm so grateful,

and I think
I'm gonna make Mr. Fox

my friend
for the rest of my life.

‐ Whoo!
‐ Wow.

Wow! Ladies and gentlemen,

we might have just witnessed

one of the greatest
musical performances

in television history
right now.

This is exactly why this show
is the greatest show on TV

and the reason why
you are in the finals, buddy.

It was unbelievable.

You said, "Y'all slept on Fox
for too long."

Once you uncover that mask,

this whole world will
never sleep on you again.

I swear to you.

I didn't know
until right now

exactly how much
winning this would mean.

‐
‐ This is...

This is
all I've done my whole life.

And I've been able
to be blessed enough

to make a lot
of people happy.

‐ Yep. ‐ But I haven't
always been happy myself.

It's taken me all this time
to find my joy again

wearing a mask

and having
no preconceived notions

from anyone
about what I can do.

And I just want to thank
the show for,

making me one happy Fox, so‐‐

We love you!
We love you!

‐ We love you so much.
‐ He's so sweet.

Now, with the emotion
of this finale performance

and everything you learned
about the Fox all season,

panel, were you picking up
on anything?

You know, I gotta tell you

every week
I've been kind of confused

by who you are
because you keep bringing

something new to the table,

and here you go again
in the finals.

I mean, I did say from the get‐go I
was thinking Jamie Foxx, you know?

‐ He has that charm, that voice,
that dancing ability. ‐ Yep.

You know, that's my best guess

even though
I think you're better

than any name
I could possibly say.

Yeah, if I thought I was sure who
it was last time he performed,

and the rap and a little bit
of the gruff in the tone

that he was using at the
beginning kind of threw me off,

but I still think
it's Wayne Brady.

Yes. ‐ Dr. Ken Jeong.
Here we go.

‐ No!
‐ Here he goes. Here we go.

I know exactly...

...who this is.

‐ Right.
‐ But in all seriousness,

you're the most
complete performer

we have ever seen
on "The Masked Singer,"

and the most complete performer

I've ever seen is Jamie Foxx.

But the only thing
that has been bumping me

are the superhero clues,
and I figured it out.

"Beat Shazam,"
Jamie Foxx's show on Fox.

That "Shazam" is the title
of a superhero movie...

‐ Ooh, I like that.
‐ ...that happens to be

the show that
he is the host of

with his daughter
that's in it!

And it's Jamie Foxx!
It's Jamie Foxx!

‐ Yes.
‐ It's Jamie Foxx!

‐ You got it, Ken? ‐ This is what
happens every time he wears Versace.

‐ I swear, every time.
‐ Yeah.

‐ Hey! ‐ Well, the energy
is on high in here,

and I think it's all because
of this Fox right here.

Ladies and gentlemen,
we just witnessed greatness.

Whoo!
‐ Wow. This is a finale show!

- ‐ How do you beat that?
- Whoo!

Coming up, two more finalists
fight for the Golden Mask.

That took my breath away!

All three will be revealed...

‐ Man. ‐ ...but only one
will be crowned the champion.

‐ My God! ‐ Thank you,
thank you, thank you.

My God.

Winning, to me, would mean

that it is possible
to reinvent yourself.

That I was right to
never give up.

That the world
would finally get to know me

for the thing I love the most.

I want to win
the Golden Mask so badly.

'Cause I've poured blood,
sweat, and tears

into every performance.

And I want to make
my family proud.

♪ Hey ♪

Welcome back to the grand
finale of "The Masked Singer."

Now, a singer hoping to get
a leg up on the other finalists,

Here's our last chance
to get a clue or two

about the Flamingo.

When I first got here,

I was so nervous to sing
in front of anybody.

It's been such
an emotional journey

performing in front
of panelists

that I idolize
as entertainers.

♪ Never enough ♪

I love your fight.

I love how much
this means to you.

Just hearing their words of
encouragement every single week,

I've been able to break out of
the box that I've put myself in.

It's so strange is that
she feels this way

because to me she's a star.

Maybe she hasn't had
that success as a solo artist.

This competition has paved the way
for huge life changes for me.

I want to make the most of every
second I have left on that stage.

This mask may be
coming off tonight,

but Flamingo will always

and forever be a part of me.

Flamingo,
you may be rolling

into the winner's circle
after that performance, honey.

You've grown so much, and you've
just blown us all away this season.

Thank you.

I never thought
I'd be so emotional about this.

I was told I would never
amount to anything.

Man.

And even though
I've doubted myself,

I'm determined,
I'm hard‐working.

Yes.

And I have truly had
the time of my life.

So I just want to say
thank you, thank you, thank you.

We love you.

Flamingo! Flamingo!

‐ Wow. This is an amazing finale.
‐ Thank you.

Guys, after a whole season
of performances and clues,

are you picking up
on anything.

I mean, she did‐‐
she said a lot.

Heck, yes. First of all,

I'm so proud and honored
to have you on this show.

You're a true example.

I mean, you branded
yourself on YouTube.

‐ Yeah.
‐ Also, we saw cheetah luggage

‐ in your clue package.
‐ Yes.

Yeah.
‐ To me, that's confirmation

that you were in
The Cheetah Girls.

So, without a doubt,
it is Adrienne Bailon.

That's right.
That's right!

And also because last week,

we brought out the globe
and it said "Israel."

And her husband
is the great Israel Houghton.

‐ That's right.
‐ And so I agree with Jenny.

I think it's Adrienne Bailon.

Robin? ‐ I've been thinking
it's Fantasia for many weeks.

However, I'm noticing
a couple of things

that are a little different
from Fantasia's style.

I don't know as much
about Adrienne's voice.

Sounds just like that.

But it sounds just like that.

So I'm gonna agree with the girls
and go with Adrienne Bailon.

Dr. Ken,
what are you doing?

I know exactly who this is.

Where did you get
those sunglasses from?

This is from Robin Thicke's

unsold merchandise bin
in the hallway.

Now, okay, everyone's
on this Cheetah Girl train.

Not this guy, all right?
This person is too established.

Every performance you have done

has just been so outstanding.

How can you not already be

an established recording artist?

Think about this.
Fergie "Fergalicious" Ferguson,

that is her real name,
is an established star

that has amazing
stage presence.

There is these Cheetah clues
that was threaded throughout.

Fergie has leopard shoes.

I'm scared that you know that.

Fergie, welcome to
"The Masked Singer."

Look,
whoever you are, Flamingo,

you are the phoenix that
has risen on this show.

You really are.

Keep it going
for the Flamingo.

♪ Who is that? ♪

Who do you think
will actually win?

I can't see anyone
who can beat the Fox.

I'm telling you, Flamingo's a sleeper.
They love the Flamingo.

♪ Who is that? ♪

Welcome back to the finale
of "The Masked Singer."

Our next finalist has stunned
the panel week after week

with his astonishing
vocal power and range.

Who does this talent belong to?
The Rottweiler!

The first time I walked
onto this stage,

it felt like
a new beginning for me.

♪ We did not know
the answer ♪

‐ ♪ And I miss the way ♪
‐ Come on!

You just brought
tears to my eyes

with that performance.

I feel like you flipped
your heart inside out for us.

♪ Castle on the hill ♪

My big break happened
when I was just a pup,

and I never really got a say
in defining who I was.

I spent years trying to live p

to everyone else's idea
of who I should be.

And although I've fought hard
to forge my own path,

it's been impossible to change
the way people see me.

Until now.

Here I've been given
the most amazing opportunity

to break that mold.

‐ Reinvention. Yeah.
‐ Reinvention, yes.

And winning this would show

everyone who's ever
underestimated me

that I'm capable
of so much more than they,

or even I thought I was.

I don't want it to be
the last performance.

Wow!

Alive, indeed. Amazing.

You guys keep it going
for the Rottweiler.

The first time you sang,
I said that you were

the strongest vocalist
this season.

I said you're going to go
to the finals.

You are in the finals.
You did not disappoint.

Killed it.

I'm just really,
really grateful right now.

I'm often my own worst enemy.

And like most of us,
I'm finding my true voice.

But this experience has brought
me so much closer to that.

I feel like I've already won.

Aww.
‐ Yes! Whoo!

‐ We are grateful to have
you, Rottweiler. ‐ So true!

Now, panel,
after everything you've learned

this season about
the Rottweiler,

it's your last shot.

You guys picking up
on any more clues?

Putting the clues
together from the past,

we saw 30 seconds,
a lot of Zen, meditation,

so I was thinking maybe
Jared Leto.

I mean, he's from
30 Seconds To Mars.

But he also said "unconventional
route to stardom."

And I felt like I recognized
some of the tone,

so I'm going to go still
with Darren Criss.

I agree with you, Nicole.

It is not Darren Criss.

Guys...

I know exactly who this is.

Because of his
incredible range, to me,

it's like the stage presence

of an actor
and the voice of a singer.

So who I think it is,
a friend of mine,

he is married to my good friend
Alison Brie of "Community."

He sounds like an angel.

Dave Franco, welcome to
"The Masked Singer."

You know what, Nick?
Ken's wrong again.

- ‐ I know exactly who this is.
- ‐

Who is it, Jenny? ‐ There's
an artist by the name of Arnel Pineda,

one of the guesses
I had last week.

The only thing that would
make me doubt myself

is that he's a little bit older
than I think this dog is.

So there is
an artist out there

that has a beautiful voice,

one that, to me,
compares to that.

Jason Mraz.

Right?
Thank you, audience member.

‐ Wow.
‐ Go, Jenny. Go, Jenny.

All right, all right.
Well, one thing we do know,

this was an amazing performance
for an amazing finale.

Ladies and gentlemen,
the Rottweiler.

I'm dying
to know who this is.

Everyone is killing it.
This finale is just too much.

Isn't it? Isn't it?
It's overwhelming.

Coming up, all three
finalists will take it off.

And the winner
of the Golden Mask

will finally be revealed.

The winner is...

My God!

Welcome back to the finale
of "The Masked Singer."

As we've seen here tonight
and all season long,

there's a reason these three

are "The Masked Singer"
finalists.

But now the time has come

to saw farewell to our
favorite characters

and see which of these
incredible performers

will earn our ultimate honor,

the Golden Mask trophy.

Panel, audience,

vote now for your favorite.

Please be
who I think it is.

The performer
with the most votes

will earn the Golden Mask.

And now,
our final votes are in.

I'm scared.

The third place winner

of this season's
"Masked Singer"...

is...

‐ Nicole.
‐ Crazy.

Ladies and gentlemen,
give it up for the Flamingo.

‐ Wow. ‐ Flamingo, congratulations
on winning bronze.

‐ Wow. ‐ Fox and Rottweiler,
you guys head on back.

But right now,
give it up for the Flamingo.

Wow. That's a surprise.

Flamingo! Flamingo!

Why? I‐‐
That's shocking to me.

As you know, Flamingo,
we love you,

and we're so sorry
to say good‐bye,

but we are so excited
to see your famous face.

‐ I'm dying to know!
‐ Very exciting. Very exciting.

But before we do that, panel,
I'm gonna need each of you

to give us
your final guesses

about who you believe
is behind this mask.

Whoo, first of all, I want to tell you
how much I enjoyed you this season.

You were so full of life,
love, entertainment.

That voice of yours, you can't
confuse it with anybody else.

I think you are
Adrienne Bailon, girlfriend.

I agree.
We had some Latin clues.

She said from hood rat
to Hollywood.

Someone discovered her
in a church choir.

I think that person
was Ricky Martin,

so I think
it's Adrienne Bailon.

‐ Mr. Robin Thicke? ‐ Robin:
From the level of performance

and everything that
you've been doing,

since "Lady Marmalade" I thought
you were Fantasia Barrino.

But there's just little
attributes and vocal things

that don't sound
like Fantasia,

and all the clues do,

you know,
line up into one thing.

And so I'm gonna agree
with the girls on this one

and go with Adrienne Bailon.

I won't lie to you. I don't
know exactly who this is.

‐ What?
‐ I've literally guessed

a single different person
week to week.

At first I said Fergie,

but I may have to go
to one of my earlier guesses.

Someone who started out
in a church choir.

Someone who's been through
a lot in life.

‐ Jessica Simpson.
‐

Half of the audience
agree with you,

half of them
said you're crazy.

Well, sounds like my family.

Okay, panel,
we have your final guesses.

Now it's time to see
who's right.

Flamingo,
we need to know who are you?

‐ ♪ Who are you? ♪ ‐ Take it off! Take it off!

♪ Who, who, who, who ♪

‐ She doesn't want
to take it off! ‐ No!

♪ Who, who, who, who ♪

‐ ♪ Who? ♪
‐ Take it off!

‐ ♪ Are you? ♪
‐ Adrienne Bailon!

‐ I knew it! ‐ Nick: There she
is, ladies and gentlemen.

The multitalented superstar,
my friend.

Adrienne Bailon,
you killed it.

A lot of you were right.
Jenny, you started it.

You‐‐ I'm a fan of yours.
Your voice is so beautiful.

And to be able to watch you
every week?

I was like, "My God.
I'm the luckiest girl ever."

‐ Thank you so much. ‐ I hope you
know and gain more confidence

when the world see this that you can
go out there and do this, girl.

I kind of want to. I might need
my mask to make it happen!

But I have gotten
a bit of the bug.

I'm like, "Wait, I might
think I sound terrible,

but if they think
I sound a'ight,

maybe I sound a'ight."

‐ Beyond a'ight. ‐ You were
born to do this. You made it.

This has been life‐changing.

I never thought that
I would love performing again,

and this has just been so crazy and
I can't thank you guys enough.

It's been the best thing
I've ever done.

- ‐ Wow.
- To sing one last time,

the artist formerly known
as the Flamingo,

Adrienne Bailon!

We're about to reveal the winner

Who will take home

Will it be the Fox?

Or the Rottweiler?

Wow, it's, like, equal.

The winner of this season's
Golden Mask is...

I'm scared.

Man.

The Fox!

‐ Yes!
‐ ♪ Hey look, ma, I made it ♪

right there.

My God, it's so cute.
It's so cute to see them hug.

Fox, you are the king
of "The Masked Singer."

Please make your way
over to the throne.

‐ He fought for that.
‐ He did.

♪ Hey look, ma,
I made it, yeah ♪

The Fox is holding it down.

You can see the excitement
in the Fox over there.

‐ He's so happy.
‐ ♪ Hey look, ma, I made it ♪

Ladies and gentlemen,

give it up for our runner‐up,
the Rottweiler.

Now, panel,
this has been a long journey,

but before we go
any further,

who on earth do you think
the Rottweiler is?

Well, honestly this is one of the best
voices we've ever had on this show.

‐ Yes. ‐ Originally it gave me
more rock alternative vibes.

I thought you were someone

from Fall Out Boy,
Patrick Stump.

Or from Incubus.

But in the clue package,
it started to talk about makeup,

and I know that this person
wore makeup at the Met Ball

and recently got married,

so I'm gonna go
with Darren Criss.

That's a good one.

Yeah, I agree with Nicole.

I think the very first
performance,

he had such a great range.

The way he moved,
he had swag.

And so I was thinking
it was from a boy band,

maybe somebody
like Brian Littrell

of the Backstreet Boys.

But then we got into
the musical theater

and we heard more songs.

I think it's Darren Criss,
a very talented young man.

Okay.

Dawg, you've had me
all over the place.

Because when you first
came out the first time,

I was like, "Robin,
this is, like an R&B guy.

Listen to that voice."

Then the next week I was like,

"Robin, this is
definitely a boy bander."

But based off of your
amazing vocal ability,

I kept thinking like,
who can sing like that?

And for some reason
I flashed to Jason Mraz.

- Good guess.
- Thank you, thank you.

- That's good.
- Wow.

He's already standing.
Dr. Ken.

All right,
we've been through

a long and winding journey
with the Rottweiler.

We've gone from boy banders
in the very beginning.

And then my favorite guess,
Bow‐wow.

But in all seriousness,
I think it's someone

known for one thing and it's
freeing to be something else.

So right now I'm going with
a friend of mine, Dave Franco.

He's of a similar build.
He's not known as a singer,

but has an amazing voice.

‐ So I think I'm right.
‐ Well, you never know.

All right, well,
we have you all on record.

So it's time to see
if any of you are right.

Rottweiler, show the world
who is behind the mask.

- ‐ It's Chris Daughtry!
- Nobody guessed it!

‐ ‐ Grammy‐nominated,
multi‐platinum,

superstar recording artist
Chris Daughtry.

My God!

Whoa! What a treat!

Man, what in the world
made you do this show?

Man, I wanted to do
something fun.

I wanted to challenge myself.
I saw it last year.

When T‐Pain won, I was just
like, "I just want to do this.

‐ That looks like so much fun."
‐ Man!

I had no idea
how challenging it was gonna be.

I'm so happy I did it. And my
kids have no idea I'm doing this,

so I'm so pumped for them
to see this.

Look how cool dad is.
He's the Rottweiler.

I'm so happy you did this show

because we all know that you
have an unbelievable voice.

‐ You blew us out of the water
week after week. ‐ Blew us out.

This is crazy.
Now to sing for us

one last time unmasked,
the phenomenal Chris Daughtry.

Wow! Yes!

Coming up, the moment
we've all been waiting for.

We'll find out
who's behind the mask

of our season two champion,
the Fox.

♪ I'm still breathing ♪

Just moments ago,
we all found out together

that the Fox is the king
of "The Masked Singer."

But who's behind that
beautiful mask of a champion?

Before we all find out,
panel, one last time,

who is the Fox?

‐ Ladies, want to start this?
‐ Yes, I will. Thank you.

‐ Such a gentleman.
‐ We've been through a lot, Fox.

It's been a great journey.

Every single performance
was perfect.

And the only person I could
think that is a perfect artist,

other than myself, because I
can't be there at the same time.

It's gotta be Jamie Foxx.

I, too, thought it was
Jamie Foxx.

But then I started
to look at the clues,

and he had a great weekend
with one of us.

And I did "Rent" at the Hollywood
Bowl with this person.

And he also said, "I went
from Doogie to Doubtfire."

So Neil Patrick Harris
directed us in "Rent."

That's why I think
it's Wayne Brady.

Yep,
I heard it in his voice,

and I could see the dancing
and the performing.

I was actually on
his talk show many years ago.

I performed on it.
I think it's Wayne Brady.

Well, the only reason that would
make me doubt Wayne Brady

is that he didn't bring up
the talk show aspect

in any of the clue packages.

So my final guess,
triple threat superstar,

super obvious‐‐

I'm agreeing with Ken

in the finale!

I must have a fever.

- ‐ Jamie Foxx.
- All right.

- Wow.
- All right.

Final guesses are in.

Here we go.
We need to know.

Fox, show us all
who are you?

Six time Emmy Award‐winning

My friend Wayne Brady!

You got it! Come on!

‐ Boom! ‐ One of the
most talented people

ever to walk the face
of the planet.

Host, actor, Broadway star.

‐ Wow!
‐!

I told you I knew who this person was.
I was catching a vibe.

I was like,
"I know who this is,"

and I'm so proud of you, man.

This has been quite
the emotional journey for you.

This has been the coolest,
most amazing,

most touching,
most challenging,

weirdest,
and this is the weird‐‐

and I host
"Let's Make a Deal."

But, God, I mean, really

I'm gonna take this
with me forever.

Aww.
‐ My God.

‐ Wow. ‐ Panel, some
of you were right.

‐ I got it, I got it, yeah.
‐ Yeah.

Somebody who could pull
all that off,

sing all those
different styles.

There only a few people
in the business like that,

and Wayne is one of them
for sure.

Thank you, Robin.
Thank you, brother.

This show is amazing
because of the mask

you lead talent‐first.

‐ Yes.
‐ So there's no one to say,

"Wayne Brady doing our‐‐

Shut up,
that's the funny guy."

I'm over the freakin' moon
right now.

This couldn't have gone
to a better, more deserving

human and talent,
superstar, superhero.

You slayed everybody.
You was on other levels.

Thank you, Nicole.

I was so scared
to guess anybody

'cause I thought
any name wouldn't even

come close to the talent
that was in front of us.

You just proved to the world

that you are a true legend
and an icon.

And I cannot wait
to buy your albums.

This is what
you should be doing.

‐ Thank you.
‐ Now, as our king,

it is my honor to present you
with this trophy.

‐ Wow, wow. Yes!
‐ Congratulations.

‐ You've earned it.
‐ Wow, thank you, sir.

‐ Whoo!
‐ The Golden Mask.

Thank you all for being a part
of this crazy success story.

We will be back February 2nd

right after the Super Bowl
with more masks,

more mysteries,
and more mayhem.

‐ Yeah! ‐ Now, unmasked
once and for all,

the winner of "The Masked
Singer," Wayne Brady!

‐ Thank you, sir.
