And although I'm not really in a position to say for certain, he'd probably qualify as a "hunk".

It's a shame that Kevin had to burn two lifelines on this question by not trusting his PAF. And as Meredith pointed out, the audience could easily have been swayed by the PAF call rather than answering from their own knowledge. I would have thought that the connection between "Fists" and "Boxer" would have been a giveaway - and perhaps the question writers did also by valuing this at only $2K.

How could anybody answer this question without using the Church Lady's voice, "Could it be....Satan?" :twisted:

Yeah, but if he came down wearing a Red Sox hat, they'd be storming out of the audience to rip his head off.

Do the writers in the dungeon have access to films that we above ground do not?

Congratulations on passing your emergency training. Now see if you can put the fire out that is this show blazing out of control...

Kev, some people think anything that challenges the status quo or takes the Lord's name in vain is a communist slogan. This show's communist attitude towards selecting its contestants would have gotten it deported by now how someone not decided that McCarthyism was a bad idea...

Unsure of the answer Kevin decides to call Jeff, a former colleague and manager.

Jeff repeats the phrase “Righteous and Harmonious Fists” and finally says, “It’s the Boxing rebellion.”


The Boxing Rebellion? Did Mills Lane officiate this uprising?

Kevin still isn’t confident so he decides to ask the audience.

I thought firefighters were trained to act reasonably and make smart decisions in tense situations like this. This is kind of the equivalent of being called to a fire, and while standing on the street in front of the building that's completely engulfed in flames, you have to yell at the crowd gathered around to gawk at the fire to ask them which house is on fire. I've seen more sensible decision making from Fire Marshall Bill...

ATA results

B – 12%

Meredith points out that the audience heard Kevin’s PAF answer.


D'oh! One of Boston's finest has just been taken to school by one of New York's leastest...

Kevin decides to go with his PAF and the ATA.

I guess if there's one reason to tune in tomorrow, it's to see if Kevin can become the first contestant to go down in flames who can put himself out. But I doubt Kev's training made it as far as Stop, Drop and Roll...
