GMM 2428: Try Not To Get Slapped ft. Cody Ko

It’s time to catch some fish, summer style. – Let’s talk about that. (theme song music) Good mythical summer. – And welcome back to another riveting edition of Catch the Fish with Grandad. – That’s right, Link. We’ve been so excited to get back to the arena that, since the last tournament, we’ve been talking like this every day in our personal lives. – (laughs) Now I think we’re stuck like this forever. – Well maybe if we provide stellar commentary for another Catch the Fish with Grandad tournament, it’ll go away on its own. – Or what if we brought in some very special grandads to play in this here tournament? – Well there’s only one way to find out. It’s time for Catch the Fish with Grandad: Mythical Summer Slapdown 2023. – Hello, everybody, and welcome back to the Catch the Fish with Grandad arena zone here in beautiful Burbank, California. – Who would have thought we would have found ourselves back here with a new crop of grandads, ready to fight to the death for the Summer Slapdown Fish trophy? Figurative deaths, that is. (both laughing) – That’s right, you heard it correctly. It’s the first-ever summer edition of the world famous tourney. The player to make it all the way through today’s bracket will face off against the reigning Catch the Fish champion, Papi Frank. – [Rhett] Oh, yeah. – All in hopes of bringing home that coveted Big Fish trophy. – Let’s do it, why don’t we? (rock music) – You know, this tournament is gonna be double the excitement because, this time, it’s couples against couples. And some of them, you may recognize. – That’s right. They say love is a battlefield, and today we’re gonna prove it. Our competitors are coming in with their better half, but they might be facing off in the semi-finals. Let’s take a look at our elderly lovebirds. – Our first couple will make you believe in love at first fright. It’s Ghost Grandad Booris and Zombie Grandad Oooooscar. – And our second couple pulled their love right out of a hat. It’s Magician Grandad Marvolio and Rabbit Grandad Ronny. – Now for the moment we’ve all been waiting for… Oh, my voice, I think, is… Okay, that’s good. I’m finding my normal voice. This is great. Let’s meet our first competitors. – I haven’t. – Please welcome the coolest and cruelest ghoul in the retirement home. It’s Ghost Grandad Booris. (upbeat music) – I’ve got nothing to lose. I’m already dead. – [Rhett] Whoa, with the high kick. – [Link] That’s a karate-chopping ghost grandad. – [Rhett] Yeah, Booris died on the toilet. (audience laughing) That’s what I’m hearing. (laughs) And using his own foot for good luck, not that he needs it, it’s Rabbit Grandad Ronny. (show music) – Kiss my cottontail! – [Link] Did not understand what he said, but I’m sure it was intimidating and rabbit-related. – [Rhett] Yes, yes, yes, yes. Whoa, staring down the ghost. – [Link] Ronny has 50,000 grandkids and 200,000 great grandkids. – Oh, wow. – Been at work. – That’s impressive. – Okay, grandads, before we get started, let’s hear from our velvet-voiced ring announcer for a reminder of the rules. Stevie? – [Stevie] In every matchup, the shorter competitor will act as the kid first, meaning they get first crack at catching the fish. Upon the first short blow of the referee’s whistle, the grandad may begin wiggling his fish. Once the referee gives a long whistle, the kid may begin fishing. The kid will get three attempts to catch the fish. After each attempt, the kid must reset their hands by placing them on their lap. If the kid succeeds at catching the fish, they win one point. After a point is earned, the competitors swap roles. After each competitor has had a chance to be the grandad, the inning is over. Every matchup will have three innings, and each player has 20 seconds per attempt to catch the fish. The fish must stay within the fish column, which is the zone between the top of the head and the waist of the shortest competitor. And throughout the competition, both competitors must stay seated at all times. It’s that easy. Back to you, Rhett and Link. – Thank you, that was appropriately the most dramatic thing I’ve seen all day because this is important. – Yes, it is. Now in our first tournament, we learned a lot about the importance of the fish column. So to help ensure our competitors stay within the boundaries, we have David Hill on the sidelines acting as our fish column judge. He’s gonna be providing us with replay footage for our review. Now one note about this. – Mm-hmm. – Just a slight update to the rule or a clarification of the rule. The fish column, the entire fish has to leave the fish column, either the top or the sides, in order for it to be a foul. So we’re relaxing the rules a little bit in the name of fun. – If the contestant leaves the fish column, they’ll receive a warning, and we’ll start the round over. If they have a second foul, however, the only player… The other player. – The only other player. – Yeah, gains a point. – Yeah, and of course if referee- – And my voice is back. I don’t- – If referee Davin needs to address the official Catch the Fish rules, AKA the Grandad Gazette, it is always available right here. Oh, he also has one. – Good. And with that, there’s nothing left to say but, let’s go fishing with grandad! – Grandads, please hop on the board. – [Link] Okay, and Ronny’s cottontail is actually a toupee. (audience laughing) And it’s gray. – [Rhett] I don’t know if they’re scared of each other. – [Link] The dentures are coming out. – There’s some intimidation tactics there. But I expect a good, clean contest here, okay? Are you guys both ready? – Yeah. – Yes. Sorry, yes, I’m ready. – That’s okay, Rabbit. Hop on, bunny. I’m gonna take you on a mustache ride straight to hell. (audience laughing) – [Rhett] Oh, my god. – [Link] Wow. – I’m honestly scared, so… – [Rhett] No rules against trash talk. – All right. Grandad Booris, you are shorter. – [Link] Now that the dentures have been removed, I can understand Ronny. – So you will be the kid first. – Whoa, I’m shorter? – I think you are. – Should we stand? – Right? Does that look right to you guys? No, okay. – Don’t try to take that away from me, Davin. (audience laughing) – All right, grandad Ronny, you are shorter, so you’re gonna be the kid first. (audience laughing) You may take off your fish for now, as you get ready to catch. All right. I’m gonna blow my whistle. And then you can start wiggling your fish. – [Link] Here we go. – And on my second whistle, you can start catching. – [Link] Yes. – [Davin] Here we go. First game starts… – We’re at it again, buddy. (whistle blowing) (whistle blowing) – [Rhett] Oh, early, right out of the gate. First second, we had a try. Oh, whoa. – [Link] Ronny is giggling. – A slap’s not a catch, Rabbit. (audience laughing) – [Rhett] Oh! – That’s a miss. That’s third try. – [Link] Three rapid fire attempts. All failures. – [Rhett] Oh, oh, and then an intimidation swim there at the end. – It’s zero-zero. You may put on your fish now. You make take off your fish now. – Now you can see that the Ghost’s fish has a hat, which is well within regulations. But we have updated regulations where there can’t be things hanging off of the fish. – Right, right. We’ve learned the hard way. – [Rhett] Ooh. – I think that’s a catch. – Slap. – Your fish stopped. – [Rhett] Yeah- – [Davin] Your fish stopped. – [Rhett] The fish stopped. – [Davin] That’s a catch. That’s a point for Grandad Booris here. – Whoa, I feel kind of guilty about that one. – That was okay. (audience laughing) – The score is one-zero. – [Link] Referee Davin being very decisive. – You have to take off your fish. Now you get a chance to catch. Top of the second inning, here we go. (whistle blowing) (whistle blowing) – Booris, I’m getting word that Booris actually also died base jumping. – One! – So apparently- – Died twice? – They landed on a toilet. – Oh. – [Rhett] Yeah, that’s how they died, on a toilet while base jumping. – That’s a fish. (audience gasping) That’s a catch. – [Link] Oh, wow. – [Rhett] That was a catch, that was a catch. – [Davin] Yo, fish, what’s up? That’s a catch, yeah. – [Link] Look at that. – [Rhett] That was a full removal. – [Davin] Yeah. You may put on your fish. You’ll get the chance to catch now. So bottom of the second inning. – [Link] It was not pretty. – The score is one to one. – [Link] But the score is tied. – [Rhett] Yes, it is. (whistle blowing) (whistle blowing) – One. That’s a miss, no. You can keep going. – [Link] Booris is not looking at… There it is, the fish. – That was a catch. That was a clean catch. – [Link] Oh, and the celebration. – [Rhett] Wow, okay, just insult to injury there. – I’ll go back to the afterlife if my fedora falls off for too long. (audience laughing) – All right, score is two to one, top of third inning. You may put on your fish now. Now you have to catch this one in order to stay in the game. Okay? – The pressure’s on. – Okay. – Ronny needs to use that lucky foot of his, (whistle blowing) which has a missing toe, which was amputated during an escalator incident at a JCPenney. – My arm’s not getting tired even if it looks like it is. – That’s a miss. Two more attempts. – [Rhett] Ronny’s telegraphing the grabs a little bit. Okay. – That’s a miss. Your last attempt. You’ve only got eight seconds left. – [Rhett] Telegraphing just a teeny bit. – I carry groceries inside and all kinds of stuff. (audience laughing) I don’t make my girlfriend do it. – [Rhett] Oh! – That’s a miss. – [Link] I would have seen that be- – We have a winner. – The attempts- – Grandad Booris wins this match. – Did not pan out for Ronny, who’s gotta climb back in the top hat. – Tough loss for Ronny, but let’s check in and see how they’re doing with our lakeside journalist, Emily. – Thank you, Rhett and Link. Rabbit Grandad Ronny, that was a tough break. – Yeah. – Was there anything you think you could have done differently? – Yeah, I mean, I think my flopping game was not as strong as it should have been. – (laughs) That’s funny, ’cause you have floppy ears. – Yeah, I know. And you can’t flop… You can’t flop up here and here, apparently. – Oh, that’s just too bad. – It was tough. But I had a really strong competitor. I’m happy to lose- – [Emily] All right, good. – [Ronny] To Grandpa Ghost. (rock music) – All right, it’s time for our second contest in these preliminary brackets. He’s the baddest grandad in the entire hoard of the undead. It’s Zombie Grandad Oooooscar. (electronic music) (audience laughing) Right, okay. – [Link] Steady as he goes. – [Rhett] Moving a little slow. – There’s something in my teeth. Oh, wait, it’s your hopes and dreams. – [Rhett] Whoa. – [Link] Ooh, wow. It is true that Oooooscar ate all of his friends at the nursing home, including his hot girlfriend Dolores. – [Rhett] Ooh. – And facing off against Oooooscar is the mystical man who makes all of his competitors disappear. It’s Magician Grandad Marvolio. (dramatic music) (Link laughing) Whoa! – [Rhett] What? – Forget about hocus pocus. If you don’t focus, you’ll be nothing but a joke-us. – [Rhett] Oh, Marvolio. – [Link] Brilliant. – [Rhett] Now none of Marvolio’s grandchildren have ever seen one of his magic shows. (audience laughing) – Grandads, please, hop on the board. – Son, you’re gonna have to help me over this. – Okay, okay, I will. (audience laughing) Come on, grandad. – [Rhett] Is Oscar gonna be able to move his hand quickly? – [Link] Oh, oh. – Abraham Lincoln- – Alakazam! – You lost your hat. – Just… (laughs) He did a magic trick with his top hat by making it fall off his head. (audience laughing) And he made his opponent pick it up. – Grandad Marvolio, you are shorter, so you’ll be catching first. You may remove your fish. All right, Grandad Oscar, are you ready? – I’m ready. – All right, here we go, first inning. (whistle blowing) – [Rhett] I don’t know if Oscar (whistle blowing) has been in a recent accident. – [Link] He’s very bloody on the… Oh, whoa! Top hat is gone. Oh, attempt number two. – Oh, it’s a miss! – [Link] Oh, and three clean. God. – [Rhett] No, Marvolio has a red fish. – [Link] Is that a snapper perhaps? – [Rhett] I’m not a sports scientist, but I think that might be easier to see. (whistle blowing) Okay, okay, he’s got a… He’s got quite a flop. Look at the flop. – [Link] Look at the death stare on that zombie. (audience laughing) Oh, oh. Oh, that was close! – Oh, yes! – All three in rapid succession. – Wow. – I love it when they do that. I love it! – Abracadabra! (audience laughing) – Davin Top of the second inning. – [Link] Look at the brains coming out of that fish. Is that what’s happening? – [Rhett] Okay, oh. – [Link] Oh. – Oh! That’s an early catch, but that catcher doesn’t count. – [Rhett] Okay, so you can see- – [Link] Ooh. – That’s your first attempt. – It’s the upward sweeping motion- – Second attempt. – Total whiff. – [Davin] He’s got 10 seconds. (audience laughing) Third attempt, that’s it. (audience laughing) – You’re throwing me off my game! (audience laughing) I didn’t know I was gonna get roasted mid-round. – You’ve gotta keep your commentary a little bit… Keep your commentary down. – Sorry about that, Marvolio! – Okay, Grandad Marvolio. You can put on your fish. Bottom of the second inning, score still zero to zero. Here we go. (whistle blowing) Oh, not yet, not yet. You’ve gotta wait ’til the second whistle. – [Link] A quick one. – [Rhett] Whoa, wow. – [Davin] Wait ’til the second whistle. – [Rhett] Oscar is so quick on the draw. – I’m sorry. (whistle blowing) – [Rhett] Moves a lot faster than you would think he does. – 20 seconds starts now. That’s your first attempt. That’s your second attempt. – No, wait, I got scared! – That’s her third attempt. – [Link] What was that? – That’s it, that was- – That’s your turn. – That was a bonk. – That was a hesitation. – Once your hand leaves your lap, that is your attempt. So that’s it for you. Score is still zero to zero- – [Link] Zilch. – Going into the last inning. – [Link] Zilcho. – Do you notice, a lot of our competitors today are doing the- – Upward sweep. – [Rhett] Upward sweep. – [Link] Upward sweep. – [Rhett] Is there… Has someone started a website? The upward sweep. – [Link] This is the… This is the trend. – This might be the final inning. (whistle blowing) – [Link] He only eats vegetarians because he says that meat eaters taste too metallic. – [Rhett] Whoa, there you go! – [Link] And there we have it. – That happened so fast, I didn’t even register that. But that was a catch. You’ve got one point. – [Rhett] That was a catch. That was a catch, that was a catch. – And can we see a replay on that fish launch? – [Rhett] Oh, he’s totally focused. Whoa, whoa. There’s so much… There’s so much shoulder motion. – Grandad Oscar, you have to get this- – [Link] Come on. – Or the game is over for you. – Okay, okay, okay. – [Link] It’s sudden death for the undead. – Okay. – [Rhett] Well not really, but… (whistle blowing) – [Link] Not really? – [Rhett] No, they have to catch it in order to continue the game. – [Link] Oh, yes. – [Rhett] That’s when they get extra innings. – No! – First attempt. – [Link] Ooh. – Second attempt. – [Rhett] Oh? – [Link] The head bob- – Third attempt. – [Link] Oh, wow! – That was it, Marvolio. Marvolio is moving on. – [Davin] Marvolio, you win this match. – [Link] Marvolio. – I got a trick. 52 pickup. (audience laughing) – [Rhett] Whoa. – [Link] A little taunting. Insult to injury for Zombie Grandad Oooooscar. Marvolio moves on. – Let’s check in with our lakeside journalist, Emily. – All right, I’m here with Zombie Grandad Oooooscar. (laughs) That was very impressive out there. Apparently you’re one of the fast-moving zombies. That didn’t help much in your strategy. What were you thinking going in? – Well I’m not saying it was rigged. But all I’m gonna say is, I think it’s a little suspicious to have a magician doing a competition. – That’s very interesting. So you think that there was maybe some cheating going on? – I do, I think there was a moment in there I couldn’t move my body as quickly as I used to. And I was thinking maybe that that was some magic up in my body. – That’s a good point there. They’re very strong accusations. No, no, no biting. (laughs) All right. All right, please, please let this interview end. (rock music) – And as if this chaos isn’t enough for you, we’ve got another chaotic event coming up. It’s Good Mythical Evening. It’s gonna be live on August 24th, at seven p.m. Pacific, 10 p.m. Eastern. Tickets are available now at GoodMythicalEvening.com. Get it. – That’s right. Now welcome to the semi-finals. Returning for their shot to face Papi Frank, it’s Ghost Grandad Booris. (upbeat music) – I’m going back to the afterlife after this, and I’m bringing that dumb magician with me. – [Link] Dang. – [Rhett] That’s a threat. – [Link] The smack talk is otherworldly. And their opponent, Magician Grandad Marvolio. (dramatic music) – Now you see your victory. Now you don’t! – Boo! – Dang, gonna make her victory disappear. – Those are some good tricks. I was hoping for doves. – [Rhett] Well Marvolio has killed over 50 doves throughout his performances throughout the years. – [Link] Okay. – [Rhett] Yeah, so maybe if he pictures the fish as a dove- – All right, grandads, I want a clean competition here. You guys gonna be nice to each other, okay? – [Rhett] Oh, wow. You can see (audience laughing) the significant others of our current competitors are coming in and… I don’t know if what they’re doing is helping or hurting. Okay, oh, right, okay. – [Link] Was there a little bit of a make-out sesh there? – [Ronny] You guys don’t get to see that, sorry. – [Rhett] I think she may have taken a little of her lip with her. – All right, well, grandads- – [Link] Is there an inappropriate power dynamic between a magician and a rabbit? I’m just asking. – Booris, you will be catching first. So please remove your fish. – All right, let’s do this. – Let’s go, buddy. – Here we go, the first inning. – Wow, this is crazy. The red snapper’s in motion. (whistle blowing) – [Rhett] But the little rattle is… Uh-oh. – First attempt. 15 seconds left. Second attempt. – [Link] I like how much fun Marvolio is having. – Third attempt, that’s a miss. That is a miss. – [Link] And, the scales are off. – [Davin] Here we go. (whistle blowing) – [Link] Okay. (whistle blowing) Spitting out a little ghost juice. – First attempt. – You’re fast. – [Link] A quick miss. And another quick miss for Marvolio. Oh, wow! – That was the first inning. Score is still zero-zero. – [Link] The ghost fish motion was switched up at the last second, luring Marvolio into a trance. (whistle blowing) – [Rhett] Maybe if Booris were to close his eyes, he could hear where the fish was at. You know? – That’s a miss. – [Link] Was that slow motion? No, it just looks like it. – You’ve got two more attempts and 10 seconds. – Okay. – Second attempt. – Ooh. – It would help if… (Rhett groaning) – That’s a miss. – If they looked at the fish. I don’t know, I’m just saying. – Okay. – No, let me clarify. Because you did not catch the fish, you released the fish, and the fish was still going. That was not a catch. – [Link] Oh, so close. – Sometimes Davin has to break people’s hearts. – Davin, I’m gonna haunt you. (Davin laughing) – Ghostdad Booris did not become a grandad until the afterlife. – Oh, you’ve gotta wait for the second whistle. – Oh, there it is! – I have not whistled. I have not whistled the second whistle. – I keep forgetting that rule. Sorry. – That does not count. – [Rhett] The all-important second whistle. – It’s difficult. The first whistle is just to make the fish move. – The flop, the flop begins on the first whistle. The catching begins on the second whistle. – I’m gonna blow my first whistle again. (whistle blowing) Then you’ve gotta wait for a second one. (whistle blowing) – Marvolio- – I think the ghost is winded. – Marvolio is a premature- – First attempt. Second attempt. – Oh. Two in a row. – One more time and 15 seconds to go. – That’s not a good strategy. – He’s gotta make it count. Oh! So close. – [Rhett] Wow, this is, wow. – All right, we’re going into our third inning here. Here we go. – Okay. (whistle blowing) (whistle blowing) – First attempt. That’s a miss. – [Link] That was very close. – It grazed my tips, okay. – You’ve got two more attempts and 10 seconds. That’s a second attempt, that’s a miss. Third attempt, that’s- – I think that’s- – [Link] The swipes start in a slow motion. – That does not… That was not a catch. I think you… I think you made a catch, and then you accidentally swatted it out of his hands. So that was not a catch. – Just Davin’s deciding this? – I’m the referee here. – Okay, let’s see the replay. – Let’s see the replay. – [Rhett] We’re gonna see the replay on this. Okay, so that was not a catch. That was a graze and pop-off. (whistle blowing) (whistle blowing) – [Link] This is dramatic. Ooh. – One. Two. – [Link] That was so close. – That’s three. – [Link] Oh! – I should have done it! You were there! – [Link] Marvolio is so frustrated. With no catches, we are going into extra innings. – [Rhett] Wow, this is a first. Zero-zero, extra innings. – [Davin] Here we go, extra innings. – [Link] Okay. – As far as I remember. – Oh, that’s a catch. – Oh! – An emphatic- – Let’s go! – Catch for the ghost, Grandad Booris. – Now it’s gotten interesting. – The game is not over yet. – What? – [Link] Marvolio- – You still have a chance to catch. He still has a chance to catch. – It’s just like baseball. That was the top of the round, inning. – We don’t watch baseball. (audience laughing) – Yes. That’s okay. – I’m dead. – [Rhett] They don’t have TVs in the afterlife. – If you don’t catch this, the game will be over. – Okay. – All right? – Marvolio has got to produce. (whistle blowing) (whistle blowing) – Ooh. – One. – One attempt. – Two. Three. – Oh! – And Marvolio- – Let’s go! – Is defeated. – Grandad Booris, you are actually winner. Look at that. – [Link] I have a feeling that is gonna haunt him for at least 10 minutes. – It will. (audience laughing) – We have Magician Grandad Marvolio here. You couldn’t quite pull this trick out of the bag, could you? Anything you could have done differently, you think? – You know, I was trying to embody David Blaine out there. But I was more David Lame. – Well your name is Magician and not Illusionist, so I don’t think… (laughs) – That’s the problem. – I know! (laughs) – The whole time. – Well you have fun going and working at children’s birthday parties. – [Marvolio] Thank you. – [Emily] It’s been great to have you here. (rock music) – Welcome to the final match. And remember, the winner will walk away with the big grandaddy, big summer fish trophy. – Of course. – First up, we’ve got Ghost Grandad Booris. (upbeat music) – I’ve beaten Satan in hand-to-hand combat, so I’m certainly not scared of my next competitor. – Okay. – Yikes. – I think that they should be though. He’s the reigning Catch the Fish with Grandad champion, and he’s everyone’s favorite party grandad. It’s Papi Frank! (action music) – Oh, yeah! Papi Frank. And I ain’t afraid of no ghosts. I’m only afraid of O’Doul’s and the communists. We’re gonna get ’em. (audience laughing) – Since we last saw Papi Frank, he has had five liver transplants. – [Link] Nice. (audience laughing) – Grandads, please hop on board. – [Link] Didn’t know that Papi Frank holds the world record for the number of hips broken during a keg stand. – Are you sober enough to get over this? – [Rhett] Mm, yes. – Not really, can you help me? – I think that would be two hips. – [Davin] All right, here we go. (whistle blowing) – Get your feet off me. – Oh, my god. I don’t know if this is legal. – Get your feet off me! – Keep everything inside the canoe please. (whistle blowing) – [Rhett] We might have to develop some foot rules. – [Link] Yeah, Papi Frank’s playing footsie. – First attempt, first. That’s not a catch. Second attempt. – [Rhett] Okay, okay. Whoa, whoa, whoa. – [Link] Papi Frank with the shoulder shake. – [Rhett] Oh, hey, that’s a new thing. – [Link] Three rapid Papi Frank attempts. – I don’t really like the foot game you have been having over here. – Very close. – We might have to add some rules about the foot game. I will say, Papi Frank just introduced something that I was hoping someone would do, the shoulder shake, which is completely legal. You can do anything you want, as long as you don’t leave… Your hands don’t leave the lap. – All right, bottom of the first inning. Now Papi Frank, you gotta keep your butt on the chair, okay? That’s the wrong sport here. – I did notice that he was sliding forward to diminish the fish column width. – But he’s gotten a warning. He’s gotten a warning from the referee. (whistle blowing) Okay, he’s still making… He’s still making noises. – [Link] Yep. – [Rhett] Just like last time. – Second attempt. That’s a miss, 15 seconds left. – [Link] His dodging ability- – Third attempt. That’s a miss. – [Link] Is unmatched- – [Rhett] Papi Frank! – [Link] In this tournament. – [Rhett] And then you notice that Papi Frank keeps eye contact with the competitor? – [Link] Yes. (audience oohing) – That almost hit my face. That would be a yellow card, but- – [Link] The hat of the ghost has been thrown behind the couch. – Second inning. (whistle blowing) (all laughing) (whistle blowing) – What? Papi Frank is having a little tickle, tickle incident. – First attempt, it’s a miss. Second attempt. – Maybe this will- – That’s a miss. – Sober you up a little bit. – 10 seconds left. – [Link] I think the ghost is getting a little tired. The fatigue. – [Rhett] Well that’s where the 20-second clock comes in. – [Link] Might work in Papi’s favor. – Four, three. – [Link] Oh, that was so close. There was contact with the ghost fish. But then it just wasn’t an emphatic hold. – [Rhett] But Papi Frank is… Oh, okay, well… (audience oh-ing) We don’t have a rule against drinking or drinking your opponent’s drink. Papi Frank also hasn’t had water in 20 years. – Bottom of the second inning. Score is still zero-zero. – So you can loosen better? (laughs) – Papi Frank used almost the entire 20 second clock- – I saw that, yeah. – Which is very strategic ’cause it gets your opponent worn down. More people should do that. More people should do the shoulder shake, and also the 20-second clock. – Second attempt, it’s a miss. – Ooh, sorry. – [Link] The ghost hood is off. – You’ve got one more attempt and 12 seconds. – Papi Frank turns it easily. – [Link] And there you have it. – That’s not a catch. That’s not a catch. – That was close to a catch. – Zero-zero still. – [Link] Not a catch. – Here we go, top of the third inning, what might be potentially the last inning. (whistle blowing) (whistle blowing) That’s not a catch. – [Link] Papi Frank really in concentration mode. – Two more attempts. – What’s what? – What’s what? – 12 seconds left. – What’s that, ooh. – [Davin] One more attempt. – Ooh, get your fish, get your fish, get your fish, get your fish- – [Link] This is the last one. – Get your fish. – [Link] And the get your fish taunting- – And Papi Frank lost his hair. – [Link] Has seemed to be effective at snatching his toupee. – Grandad Booris, if you catch this fish, you will win this tournament. Here we go. – [Rhett] There’s a lot on the line here. – [Link] Wow. I’m pulling for Papi Frank, I have to be honest. (whistle blowing) – (laughs) Did you go Western, Southern? – [Link] Here we go. – That’s a miss. 15 seconds left. – (indistinct) nervous. – [Link] That was faster. – [Rhett] Booris has a little hitch in his- – [Link] And the final attempt. – We’re going into extra innings. – No! – Extra innings. – Have you noticed that Booris has a little hitch in the grab? A little hitch in the grab? – [Link] It’s like a slow-motion start. – [Rhett] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. – Here we go, inning number four. – [Rhett] I can’t think that that’s helpful. – Oh, okay. – Woo! – Might be getting seasick. – Yeah. – [Link] Papi Frank is going full bald for the extra innings. – That’s not a catch. – [Link] Ooh. It could have been a catch if he would have just held it. – [Rhett] Okay, oh. – That’s not a catch. – [Link] And that was a miss. – 10 seconds left. – [Rhett] Okay. – One more attempt. – [Rhett] He’s zeroing in on it though. He’s gotten so close, so many times. Okay, well now the fish is really moving. – That’s not a catch. – [Link] Ooh. – [Davin] That’s not a catch. – [Link] So much frustration and sweat on the brow of Frank. (whistle blowing) – Those of you watching at home, you might think this looks easy. (whistle blowing) It’s not. They’re very winded. – Are you Booris Johnson? – No. (audience laughing) Shut up. – Miss. – [Link] Ooh. That didn’t have a chance. – Two more attempts. Miss. – [Link] That’s the second one. – [Rhett] Yeah, that was a miss. – [Link] Is this gonna do it? Is this the moment? – That’s a miss. – [Link] No, it is not. – We’re going into our fifth inning. – Fifth inning. You know, theoretically this could go on forever. – Woo! – [Rhett] We do not stop until we have a winner. – [Link] That’s right. – Here we go, fish up. (whistle blowing) – [Link] But we may leave. – A lot of people don’t know this, but I died in a fishing accident. (whistle blowing) – I think that contradicts what Rhett and Link said earlier. (audience laughing) – Okay, well it’s hard to hear- – [Link] On the toilet. – That’s not a catch. That’s not the fish, that’s his elbow. – [Rhett] Elbow, elbow is not a catch. – Now that is a catch. – [Link] Ho! – That is a catch. – [Link] So… – I did it, but it didn’t feel good. – So yeah, the time continues, the time continues. – The time did continue. – Yeah, let’s see the replay. – [Rhett] Okay, so we know that that’s not a catch. – [Link] So with the forearm catch, we’re… It’s ruling that that is not catching the fish. – [Rhett] Right, but whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. – [Link] Disdainful look to cam- – [Rhett] Okay, pause it right there. So right there, the fish is out of the fish column. Am I right, David Hill? – [Davin] You are correct, Rhett. That is a foul first before the catch. So that catch actually did not count. And the clock resets. Here we go. (whistle blowing) – Papi Frank’s knees just popped. – Don’t. You’re trying to distract me with your feet. – This allowed both players to rest a little bit. And they really needed it. – It’s a full reset too. You know, you’re- – That’s not a catch. You’ve got two more attempts. – Okay, and almost a forearm catch. – He’s going a little… He’s actually going a little- – That’s a catch! – That’s a catch. – And we have the Papi Frank catch. – I got a thumbs up from David Hill. That is a catch. – [Rhett] Yes, that’s a catch. – [Davin] It’s a bit dramatic, but that is a catch. (audience clapping) – Wow, I’m just thrilled to see anyone get a point at this moment. – Right. – Fish up, please. – [Rhett] But Booris still has an opportunity. – Booris still has an opportunity. – [Rhett] To tie and continue into even more innings. – [Davin] You’re at the top of the inning. (whistle blowing) – [Rhett] Okay, legs up again. (whistle blowing) – [Link] We have the… The footsie happening down below. It’s something we’re gonna have to look at. – First attempt. That’s a miss. 12 seconds. – Oh, my goodness. – No, that’s a miss. You’ve got one more attempt- – That was as close as you could get. – And 10 seconds. – The ghost is getting- – Five. – Real grabby. – Four. Three. That’s a miss. That is a miss. We have a winner, Papi Frank. – [Rhett] Oh, Papi Frank reigns supreme! – [Link] Ghost Grandad Booris was circling that thing left and right, – Big Grandaddy, Big Summer Fish Trophy. – [Link] But could not pull the point down. – When the pictures come out, I wanna have hair. – [Rhett] All right, so Papi Frank takes home another trophy, the Big Grandaddy, Big Summer Fish Trophy. Two time champion. Who’s gonna beat Papi Frank? I don’t know. We’re gonna have to find out next time. – Mm-hmm. – All right, Papi Frank, you’ve won two tournaments. How does it feel to be a winner? – It’s five o’clock somewhere. Let’s go to Margaritaville. – (laughs) I like that. I’d like to join you. I’ll buy you a drink. – Oh, all right. (audience laughing) – [Link] It seems there’s some sort of a… A connection happening here. – I thought we were flirting. – We were. Papi Frank! (audience laughing) – [Rhett] The referee has left. There are no rules. We don’t know what happens from here. – There are a lot of rules, but none about this type of stuff. Until next time, thanks for subscribing and clicking that bell. – You know what time it is. – All right, any other unfinished business? – Well like all the tournaments in my life, I lost the game, but I won two new lovers. – (laughs) That’s right. Wanna add anything at the end? – Well I’m Ghost Grandad Booris, and it’s time to spin the Wheel of Mythicality. – Two new lovers, not a bad day. – And Papi Frank still won. That’s a great day. – Oh, okay.
