The Masked Singer (2019–…): Season 2, Episode 6 - Mask-ish - full transcript

For weeks,
the mystery has been building.

‐ Who's that voice?
‐ I'm dying to know.

The world's been speculating.

Tupac is Thingamajig.
#HesAlive.

You might think you know.

Man, I'm on a roll with my guesses.
You're welcome, guys.

- ‐ But...
- Who is it?

Who are you?
‐ ...do you really?

I could be, like,
Ken Jeong wrong right now.

‐ ♪ Who is that? ♪
‐ This is "The Masked Singer."

Each week, undercover
celebrities show off everything



‐ but their famous faces.
‐

I have no idea who this is,
once again.

And the weakest performer is
forced to reveal their identity.

Last week, Penguin was iced out
of the competition.

Actress, host,

Emmy Award‐winner
Sherri Shepherd!

You belong on this show,

I'm Nick Cannon.
This is "The Masked Singer."

Whoo!

This is the show that keeps
the whole world guessing,

singing,
and using terrible puns.

We are halfway through
the competition,

and the talent level of our singers
is making it way too hard to call.

Big question around here is
who will win this whole thing

and earn the right to wear
the Golden Mask, right?

Now I want to know.

All right,
ladies and gentlemen,

tonight we have a very special
guest on our panel

who is a gifted actor,
comedian, writer, host,

and a personal friend of mine.

My brother,
y'all make some noise

for the one and only
Anthony Anderson.

‐ Yay!
‐ Wow!

Ho. Ho, ho.

Now, Anthony, we're thrilled
to have you here with us.

Now how in the hell
did we get you here?

I was trying to be
a masked singer on the show,

but I'm tone deaf,
so they asked me to judge.

Okay, let's get right to our
first secret superstar tonight.

It's time to get a better
spidey‐sense of a singer

who's the talk of the web,
the Black Widow.

Last round I totally
threw y'all off

with a genre
you didn't expect.

♪ I took a Louisville slugger
to both headlights ♪

You gave me the chills. Honestly,
you brought the house down.

Yes.

This costume
feels like home.

I can be myself, and I don't
have to pretend anymore.

Then again, I can make myself
at home

in pretty much
any nook or cranny.

So here are my tips
on how to jazz up

any new space,
no matter how dirty!

‐ Dirty!
‐ Christina Aguilera.

Whether it's a cozy den
in Memphis

or a bungalow in Bel Air.

Okay, she has a home in
Memphis, home in Bel Air.

Make sure to fill your space

with things that spark joy,

and always find time
to entertain your guests.

‐ "Misdemeanor."
‐ Did that say "Scrubs"?

‐ Did that say "Scrubs"?
‐ Missy, "Misdemeanor,"

or T‐Boz from TLC.

You still hanging with me?

Good, because tonight
this hot homemaker

is gonna keep you
on your toes,

and not even a broken arm
can stop me.

Who that? Missy Elliott?
Is that Missy?

‐ Missy's from Virginia, not Memphis.
‐ Yes.

♪ No matter how hard I try ♪

♪ You keep pushing me aside ♪

♪ And I can't break through ♪

♪ There's no talking to you ♪

♪ It's so sad
that you're leaving ♪

♪ It takes time
to believe it ♪

♪ And after all
is said and done ♪

♪ You're gonna be
the lonely one, ♪

♪ Do you believe
in life after love? ♪

♪ I can feel something
inside me say ♪

♪ I really don't think
you're strong enough, no ♪

♪ Well, I know

‐ ♪ I really don't think you're
strong enough, no ♪ ‐ Whoo!

♪ Do you believe
in life after love? ♪

Yes! She got that
samurai squat!

Black Widow! Black Widow!

Setting it off!
Hitting the notes.

Ken, please
tell our Black Widow

about her performance.

Your voice, Black Widow,

it makes people stand up

the more you crouch down.

You crouch better
than all the contestants

on either season.

That's how good
your crouch game is, girl.

- ‐ Look at that.
- Look at that!

‐ She got that mean lean. ‐ You deliver
consistently good performances

in, like, different genres,
different styles.

Amazing job. Love it.

Robin?
‐ I loved the song choice

and I loved your performance.

I was a little thrown off
by the injured backup dancers.

Remember, last time
she broke her arm.

She didn't want
to effect her performance,

so this week,
the dancers joined her.

So she got everybody
from the emergency room,

‐ brought 'em with you. I get it.
I get it. ‐ Exactly.

What clues are you
picking up on?

I'm still sticking with some
of the clues from early on.

Child actor who has
an edgier side.

And there was something
in the package

referencing "Hangin' With Mr.
Cooper," I noticed.

So I'm still going
with Raven‐Symoné.

‐ I think that she's multi‐talented.
‐ Good guess.

‐
‐ The audience went ""

‐ Wait a minute. ‐ Raven‐Symoné,
that's‐‐ Raven's my guess.

- I agree.
- Right?

I think
you guys are all wrong.

Now, I think based on
the performance and the clues,

sounds like she was‐‐ maybe has a
home in Bel Air and in Memphis.

And this may be‐‐
maybe a country star,

and it could be someone
like Miranda Lambert.

- Okay.
- Great voice.

I don't hate that answer.
‐ Okay, well tonight

we're asking each of our masked
singers to bring something

from their home to show us
who they really are.

‐ Whoo! Whoo! ‐ So it's time
to reveal the revealing item.

Yeah, let's do it.

Thank you, sir.
You guys ready for this?

- ‐ Yes, Nick.
- My God.

I'm so excited!

What is it?
‐ Whipped cream and crackers?

Whipped cream and crackers?
That's different.

What? That's the clue?

‐ My gosh.
‐ Are you Cardi B?

I've spun webs
around these tasty treats.

You spun webs
around these tasty treats?

I think it's‐‐ it's a prop.

‐ Maybe an actor?
‐ Anthony, you've heard it all.

Director's footage,
started young, an actor.

I have no idea. Um...

Welcome to
"The Masked Singer" panel.

Who's in "Charlie's Angel" that
started young? What's her name?

‐ Drew Barrymore?
‐ Drew Barrymore.

Very good guess.

Wow. ‐ This is both
helpful and confusing, by the way.

‐ Yeah. ‐ One thing
that isn't confusing

was that was an amazing
performance from the Black Widow.

Our panel thought
one of these celebrities

might be under
the Black Widow mask.

Who do you think it is?

I want to win this so bad

that I didn't quit
even after my injury.

I said I'm getting on stage

and I'm leaving it
all out there no matter what.

Coming up...
‐ Yeah!

I once had the chance

to choose life or death.

‐ And later...
‐ Take it off!

...the most shocking
unmasking yet.

‐ Take it off!
‐

‐ Who's up next?
‐ Thingamajig.

Anthony, we think it's Usher.

- He's, like, 6'10".
- It's two of Ushers.

It's Sisqó standing on top
of Usher, I think.

‐ Sisqó standing on top of Usher.
‐ My God. So good.

♪ Who is that? ♪

Welcome back to
"The Masked Singer,"

where stars come to hide
their famous faces

and their whereabouts
from their family and friends.

Our next performer is clearly
a singer with range,

so let's all look for anything
that helps us figure out

‐ who or what is Thingamajig.
‐ ♪ Who is that? ♪

♪ That there's always been
a rainbow ♪

Last performance, I let my guard
down and sang from the heart.

‐ I'm gonna marry you.
‐ ♪ Hey ♪

But let's be real. I'm used to my
voice winning over the ladies.

‐ What's up, Nicole? ‐ Your voice
is saying you're baby Jesus.

‐ So, thank you.
‐ ♪ Hey ♪

After I put on a good show,

I always like to break bread
with the homies,

and this is how we do it.

Yeah, Montell Jordan.

Feel free to snoop
into my life.

It's Snoop.

You'd see that my pops taught me
how to serenade the ladies,

and I haven't stopped since.

What is that?
What are these shoes?

So, Nicole‐amajig,
tonight this song is for you,

and I ain't too proud to beg.

‐ He is just as sweet as pie.
‐ He's meant for you.

I think I'm gonna have to
date him. ‐ You might have already.

What if you already did?
Exactly, Robin.

Whoo!

‐ Whoo! ‐ Thingamajig did
his thinga‐amathing.

Do you know who that is,
Anthony? Come on, help us out.

I have no idea who that is.

This is my favorite one.
This is my favorite one.

Wow. Miss Scherzinger, now
he dedicated this song to you.

He said, "Don't leave me."

I said,
"I'm not going anywhere."

‐ I'm right here.
‐ Wow. Wow.

I'm in love with your voice.

You have so much, just,
effortless swag on stage,

and you're just
a soulful crooner.

Your tone is just so beautiful.
Thank you so much.

Yeah.

‐ Aww.
‐ I gotta say, Thingamajig,

I loved your confidence
this week.

‐ Yeah. ‐ You're getting
really comfortable on stage.

And your voice
is unbelievable.

Robin, were you
picking up on any clues

from the package,
from the performance?

Who could this possibly be?

I'm trying to look
at the height comparison.

Montell Jordan is definitely
becoming my first guess

as I'm hearing the tone
of his voice when he's singing.

Wait. I was gonna say
that name right there.

‐ This is how we‐‐ exactly. ‐ Yeah,
and he's not dancing too much.

You know, he's mostly just kind
of, you know, gangster swag.

He can dance though.
He can dance.

- There we go. See?
- I love it, I love it.

‐ He's got swag. ‐ I love this combo.
It's like Thingamajig and son.

I love it. It's so great.

The clues, of course,
doesn't run with the bulls

really kind of sticks with me
being from Chicago,

so it makes me go
basketball player

with that body of yours.

What about, um,
the retired NBA‐‐

Tony Parker,
is that his name?

‐ Tony's‐‐ ‐ Yeah, he's two
inches shorter than Nick.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

- ‐ Whatever.
- I don't know.

I was thinking based off
of the clues

with the gummi worms,
Dennis Rodman.

His nickname was Worm,
I believe.

‐ Dennis can't sing though.
‐ Then he said‐‐

We don't know.
It could be his hidden talent.

And then last week
his clue for us

was his darkest moment
was rehab.

‐ ‐‐ So I'm
thinking Dennis Rodman.

Well, you know, there's a club
in Vegas called Rehab,

and it's dark inside there.

Could be up in there, too.

I think
just based on the clues,

and this is a stretch,
so bear with me.

You know, he likes to hang out
with his crew.

There are five people there.

And he's the tallest member
of that crew.

I mean, I'm a big New Edition
fan, like, growing up.

It could be‐‐ Nick, wait.

It could be, you know,

it's not Bobby, Ricky, or Mike,

but Ron DeVoe is the tallest guy
of Bell Biv DeVoe.

That was my favorite group
growing up.

You are Ronnie DeVoe
of Bell Biv DeVoe.

Welcome to
"The Masked Singer." BBD!

He's Ron!

All right, we asked
all our singers

to show us something

that reflects who
the really are.

So, men in black! Security!

All right,
here comes the clue.

Reveal the revealing item.

It's gonna be a can
of poison.

‐ P‐p‐p‐p‐poison.
‐ P‐p‐poison.

‐ You ready?
‐ What is this gonna be?

"American Sign
Language Dictionary."

‐ Love it. He can sign.
‐ Hi!

That's tough.
‐ Well, this book taught me

to communicate with others,

which is the most
important thingamajig.

‐ ‐ That's my husband, guys.
That's my husband right there.

‐ Thank you. ‐ Why and how would
a book on sign language...

‐ Yeah. ‐ ...help us figure
out who this man is?

This show doesn't
make sense at all.

I mean, the only thing I can
say out of a clue from that

is I went to Catholic School and
we had to learn sign language.

So I don't know if we had
the same school district maybe?

I learned different things
in Catholic school than you did.

I don't even need to know who he is.
I love him already.

Ladies and gentlemen,

one more time
for the Thingamajig.

Whoo!

The panel thought
one of these celebrities

might be Thingamajig.
Who do you think it is?

I'm one of Nicole's
biggest fans.

You know, I'm just glad
that she likes me.

So, see where it goes.
Thingamajig, you already know.

‐ That's my husband. ‐ You can
have a baby Thingamajig, Nicole.

Baby Thingamajig!

I can marry them.
I'm ordained.

‐ Hey.
‐ I can marry you two.

♪ Who is that? ♪

‐
‐ We have a call incoming.

Hi, Mom!
Sorry I missed your calls.

No, no, I'm fine.
I'm just, at the gym.

Butterfly, to the stage.

Hey, I gotta go.

Love you. Bye.

I hate lying to my mom.

Welcome back to everybody's
favorite who‐sungit mystery.

We don't have a moment to waste,

so let's get back
to our guessing game.

She's a beautiful creature
who's taken flight each week,

so let's search high and low

for any new clues
about the Butterfly.

Rehearsing for
my last performance,

there was an accident and
I suffered an electric shock

that nearly knocked me out.

‐ Aah!
‐ ♪ Living on a prayer ♪

All my insecurities
about performing resurfaced.

♪ Whoa ♪

But I couldn't let that setback
stand in my way.

‐ ♪ Living on a prayer ♪ ‐ We
are happy that you are alive.

Becoming the Butterfly
has reignited a love I've had

since I was seven years old.

I found others modeled
just like me

and was welcomed
to the choir's joyful noise.

‐ Joyful noise. ‐ Okay, that's church.
That's religious.

It made me feel safe
even in the hardest times.

‐ Car salesman of the year.
‐ She sold cars?

This bleeding love has given me
the highest of highs,

but sadly led
to the lowest of lows.

As the Butterfly,
I am taking charge

and reclaiming
what I thought I'd lost.

Because this is what
I was meant to do.

Aww.

The Butterfly has definitely
blossomed this week.

Our guest panelist,
Mr. Anthony Anderson.

I wrote three words down.

Soulful, textured,
and honest.

Whoo.
‐ That's what I felt

when I saw you perform
on the stage tonight,

- ‐ and that's all I want to say.
- Yes.

Miss Scherzinger,
are you picking up on any clues?

Okay, so you have such
a unique texture to your tone.

‐ ‐ I'm definitely getting
maybe pop group vibes.

Someone from, like,
Destiny's Child.

I think I know who it is
off of that voice.

‐ Who?
‐ Who? Say it.

- ‐ Michelle Williams.
- Yes.

‐ Yeah.
‐ Michelle Williams?

‐ Yes. ‐ I think so, too,
based off that voice.

What's that got
to do with London?

Well, you know,
the clues from last time,

the London thing confused me,
she felt alone,

and has a body like that,

and those thighs
that I'm so jealous of.

Like, I've seen those thighs.
I've heard that voice.

I agree, I think
it's Michelle Williams.

I disagree.
I'm still sticking

with some of the clues
from early on.

Every week we've seen clues
about London,

so that's why I've been going
with Leona Lewis.

Okay. Robin got one.

I mean, I'm sure
she's won a Brit award.

‐ Yeah. ‐ Nick: All right, well,
we're gonna get one more clue

from the Butterfly.

Bring out the revealing item!

Whoo!

Do you guys really think
that thing helps?

I actually‐‐
I think it makes it worse.

Are you guys ready
for the revealing item?

‐ Yes!
‐ Whoo!

My gosh.

What?

‐ Doesn't make any sense.
‐ ♪ Who is that? ♪

- ‐ Are you guys ready?
- Whoo!

My gosh.

‐ What the heck is that?
‐ What the hell is that?

A forensic kit.
‐ A forensic kit?

Doesn't make any sense.

I once had the chance

to choose life or death.

She once had the chance
to choose life or death?

Wow.
‐ Okay.

Um, you guys are gonna
hate my guess, and it's, um...

‐ Yes! ‐ Look, this is
a Norah Jones song.

I love Norah Jones.
What if, all right,

we've never done this
on the show.

What if it was actually
Norah Jones

singing a different version
of a Norah Jones song?

Just what if? Just‐‐ I just
want to blow your mind grapes.

Norah Jones is your height.

She's not 6'5"!

And let me tell you,
it could happen.

You could have
a singer of a song,

disguise yourself
as a butterfly,

and then guest star
on "CSI" or whatever,

and then she came here
and sang her own song.

Drop the mic.
You're welcome.

Great job, Dr. Ken.

I'm just clapping
because it's over.

Ladies and
gentlemen, one more time,

let's give it up
for the illustrious Butterfly.

Love you, Norah!
Good job singing your own song.

Nicole, talk to the Leopard.

I mean, I just‐‐ I love you
because you're all in,

and I just love how you're so
theatrical and so in character.

I'm
dying to know who you are.

- ‐ Wow.

‐ Rawr. ‐ Wow. Get a tree, you two.
Am I right, guys?

‐ Get a tree.
‐ Okay? ‐

He's loving on Nick
right now.

‐ My God!

‐ Can it be?
‐ I'm uncomfortable right now.

‐ I do, I do, I do.

Yeah! Yeah!

Yes! ‐ Hey,
Nicole's with the Thingamajig.

I had to get something.

What exactly
is this show about?

I'm still trying
to figure that out.

What did I agree to do?

Dr. Ken, are you
picking up on any clues?

Okay, all right, I know exactly who
this is, and I'll tell you why.

‐ No.
‐ Here it goes.

I've given this
a lot of thought.

‐ Here he goes.
‐ Okay, I have some clues, guys.

New Edition, all right?

And remember, I possibly
think the Thingamajig

is someone from Bell Biv DeVoe‐‐
Ronnie DeVoe.

I think they wanted to carpool
to "The Masked Singer."

Hold on. Hear me out.
Hear me out, man.

‐ Stay with me.
‐ Yeah, we're with you, Ken.

This is clearly Bobby Brown.

Stay with me.
Stop laughing.

I thought you were
fantastic, Bobby.

Salute. Salute.

Anthony, are you picking up
on any clues?

This person in this costume
has embodied this costume,

so all I see is this
character here right now.

Yeah.
Yeah, that's what threw me.

Yeah, that's all
I see right now.

Yeah, you gotta get through
the Leopard and the dress

to get to the Bobby Brown,
you know what I mean?

It's just like‐‐
gotta be like me and smart.

‐ Okay, okay.
‐ "To get to the Bobby Brown."

I'm at a loss. ‐ Nicole,
you're pretty good with these things.

‐ What were you picking up on?
‐ I saw "Pose,"

and they're so theatrical,

and I'm a huge fan
of this person,

so I'm still thinking
Billy Porter.

- ‐ Me, too.
- Yeah, yeah.

- Yep. Me, too.
- Yeah.

I'm gonna go with Billy Porter.
I'll go with the Billy Porter.

Leopard, please reveal
the revealing item.

‐ Saucer of milk.
‐ A saucer of milk.

You guys ready?
‐ We're ready.

- Cameras.
- Cameras. Photography.

Bobby Brown likes to take pictures,
I mean, you know what I mean?

It's just like‐‐
it all makes sense.

Well, darlings,

you know, my life
has been so tiresome.

I spend most of it
in front of the lens.

But I much prefer
being behind the lens.

Maybe it's the director Tyler Perry because
he likes to be behind the cameras.

- Yep.
- Right?

Ooh, that's good.

Why does the Leopard sound like
Eartha Kitt from "Boomerang"?

Yes! Yes!

‐ "Marcus, darling."
‐ "Marcus, darling."

My God!
It does sound like Eartha Kitt!

Well, we know he was amazing in
front of the lens here tonight.

Ladies and gentlemen,
the Leopard.

might be under
the Leopard mask.

Who do you think it is?

The performance
was simply exquisite, darling.

I loved every minute of it.

It made me feel like I was
a teenager all over again.

Coming up...
‐

I'm just gonna take the "O"
off the Flamingo

and say you flaming,
because that's how hot you are.

...and a reveal that will
leave you speechless.

- ‐ This is hard, man.
- Show us who you are.

Welcome back
to "The Masked Singer,"

where the identities are fake,
but the competition

could not get more real.

And now,
let's take a close look

at the bird clue droppings

about our final singer tonight.

It's the Flamingo.

After my last performance,

I realized that being
the Flamingo

is one of the greatest
opportunities of my life.

♪ So I gotta cut loose ♪

‐ ♪ Footloose ♪
‐ I mean, that voice.

I was smiling so big,
I think you broke my Botox.

Mira, the real truth
is my story's not all fantasy.

‐ "Mira."
‐ Spanish?

See, years ago, I started hating
the sound of my own voice,

and being on stage became one
of my biggest fears.

‐ Aww, man.
‐ Insecure.

But now as the Flamingo,

when I hear
I've done a good job,

I'm relearning
how to say thank you,

and I'm reminded that
I can do it all.

I've danced, sung,
and acted my way to the top.

Triple threat.

So tonight it's going to
just be me and my voice,

and I'm finally okay with that.

Thank you for helping me see

that this bird
is anything but basic.

‐ My God!
‐ Yes!

Whoo!

- Wow.
- Whoo!

‐ Yeah, yeah.
‐ That's a voice, Robin.

Standing ovation.

‐ Come on!
‐ That was amazing.

Flamingo! Flamingo!

‐ Robin, you're still standing.
‐ We both are.

Yes, yes. Sorry, I was‐‐

‐ We're in shock. ‐ Yeah, no,
that was‐‐ that was outstanding.

Can I‐‐ can I hear it
one more time?

I am so blown away.
I honestly‐‐

I could listen to you
sing that over and over again.

The way you sing it
was so effortless.

‐ Yeah.
‐ And beautiful,

soulful, meaningful.

Best performance by far,
I think, of the show yet!

‐ That's how much I loved it.
‐ That was great.

Outstanding. ‐ I'm just
gonna take the "O" off the Flamingo

and say you flaming, because
that's how hot you are.

‐ Hey!
‐ Did you like that?

‐ You like that? You like that? ‐
Nick: I like what you did with that.

‐ Flaming‐go. Flaming‐go.
‐ Whoo!

Whoo, Flaming‐go.

Robin, were you
picking up on anything?

Yes, some of the clues
that we picked up on earlier

were that she came to Hollywood

and was discovered
by a wizard.

That could be Simon Cowell
of "American Idol."

‐ Yeah? Yeah. ‐ The performing,
the moves, the voice,

and the big finish the way‐‐
that's Fantasia to me.

In my opinion,
I think that's Fantasia.

I will agree with Robin.

It seemed as if she was trying
to masquerade her voice

because she sings‐‐

her voice is very distinctive.
It is Fantasia.

I think it's a pretty
good guess, but from the clues

that I got your first time,

lifestyle brand,
fashion, beauty advice.

This week, the film
references that you gave

made me believe that you're
an actress and a singer.

So I'm still gonna stick
with Adrienne Bailon.

I like that.

All right, our Flamingo
wants you to know

‐ a little bit about herself.
‐ ‐

So, security, bring out
the revealing item.

Bring it.

All right, let's see.

You guys ready?
Flamingo, are you ready?

- Ooh.
- Whoa, what is that?

Is that a NAACP Image award?

‐ That you hosted.
‐ Yes.

I was tickled pink
when I received this award.

Tickled pink when she
received‐‐ ‐ Tickled pink.

‐ I know. I know who she is.
‐ She is P! nk.

‐ She's P! nk. Yeah.
‐ She's P! nk.

The singer, P! nk.
She's P! nk.

- ‐ It could be.
- Yeah.

Well, we know
that the Flamingo

is a NAACP award‐winner

and possibly a "Masked Singer"
winner with that performance.

Ladies and gentlemen,
give it up. Flamingo!

Our panel thought
one of these celebrities

might be under
the Flamingo mask.

Who do you think it is?

God, we gotta vote.

I forgot it's this time.
This competition's hard.

There's so many
good ones today.

I mean, musically this is my favorite
episode maybe ever. I mean, musically.

- ‐ Yeah, me, too.
- Yeah, I agree.

Now the time has come for
our live audience and our panel

to vote for their favorite
performer tonight.

Wow, this is hard, man.

The singer with the
least amount of votes

will unmask and head home.

The others
will sing another day.

And the singer with
the least votes tonight...

‐ I'm scared.
‐ ...is...

I don't want to know.

...going to be revealed
right after this.

‐ You ain't right!
‐ I do that all the time.

‐ You ain't right!
‐ I do it all the time!

You ain't right.
‐ ♪ Who is that? ♪

And the singer
with the least votes tonight...

‐ I'm scared.
‐ ...is...

I don't want to know.

- ‐ The Black Widow.
- ‐

So sad.

Go ahead, say your good‐byes
to the Black Widow.

‐ That hurt.
‐ Black Widow,

come on down over here.

‐ You were amazing.
‐ Whoo!

You know I'm a fan. Now
this is what I have to say.

I'm definitely sorry
that you're leaving us,

but we're excited to see
who you really are, right?

‐ Yes!
‐ Yes!

But first, gang,
we need your final guesses.

I'm gonna start
with you, Nicole.

Okay, we started out
with a squeaky clean image.

So somebody from Disney,
possibly a child actor.

Someone who didn't want
to have to pretend anymore,

which I took to be someone
from the LGBTQ community.

But the giveaway for me

was the dropping it low
and the samurai squats.

'Cause when she be doing
her dance‐offs and stuff on TV,

the first thing she does
is she gets real low.

That's why I think
it's Raven‐Symoné.

I agree with you, Nicole.

From day one,
there was a lot of clues.

Famous for years,
powerful empires.

Her show "That's So Raven"

was the most successful
show at the time.

‐ I actually wrote a song for her.
‐ Yeah, right.

I did. I wrote a song
on one of her albums,

so I'm pretty familiar
with her voice.

I'm gonna stick
with Raven‐Symoné.

If it is the person
you say it is,

I actually wrote her as my sister
into my sitcom "Black‐ish,"

‐ so you're a‐‐
‐!

If this is Raven‐Symoné,
I used to babysit her!

I don't think it's her though,

because we've never
talked about her

being from Memphis
or owning a home in Memphis.

‐ Interesting. ‐ You know, I'm
gonna stick with my first here,

because I texted Raven
while she was up there singing,

and Raven was like,
"Yo, what up?"

So I know it ain't Raven.

There you go.
That's why you're the expert.

So I'm gonna stick
with Drew Barrymore.

- Good.
- Jenny?

The film references
that you gave made me believe

that you're also an actress
and a singer.

So I backed up and thought,
"Okay, TV, singer, 'Glee.'"

So I'm gonna stick
with Amber Riley.

Going off the clue package
of having a home in Memphis,

can easily sing any genre,

I see no reason
to change my guess,

Miranda Lambert.

Okay, panel,
you've made your final guesses.

Now let's see if any of you
are right.

Black Widow,
show us who you are.

‐ ♪ Who are you? ♪
‐ Take it off!

‐ ♪ Who, who, who, who ♪
‐ Take it off! Take it off!

‐ She really needs help.
‐ Help her out!

‐ I have no idea!

Why am I even asking you?

‐ 'Cause I'm out of my mind.

‐ Nice job, Robin.

‐ No! You guys!
‐

Wow! Actress, singer,
television star,

Broadway star,
television host.

So many things.

Wow, you had me fooled
for real, for real.

What made you do this show
as the Black Widow?

I've been in the music
industry‐‐ in the industry

for a really long time,
and I said,

"My goodness,
it would be awesome

if I don't have to see anybody,
they can't see me.

I can be the person
I am in the mirror

and not have to put on
this all the time."

‐ Aww.
‐

And you guys called me
a professional singer.

I peed my pants.
So thank you very much.

Aww. Right
after your first performance,

‐ you injured yourself. ‐ I got to
only really do one performance.

You know, just don't ride
a hoverboard at 33.

But you still gave us
a great, amazing perf‐‐ yeah!

My gosh!
Like, exactly!

Yes!
A samurai squat.

I texted to see
if it was you.

You could have hit me
back and be like,

"Yeah, Ant, vote for me."

No, but I am so proud of you.

‐ Thanks, brother. ‐ You know
I'm a fan, and I love you.

- ‐ She's a star. She's a star.
- And one more time,

the artist formerly known
as the Black Widow.
