Link’s gonna look at closeups of people’s faces and see if he can figure out – what they’re doing. – Let’s talk about that. ♪ (theme music) ♪ – Good Mythical Morning! – You can tell a lot by looking at someone’s face. For instance, if you could really do this well, you would look at my face and know. “Hm, he had a smoothie with an avocado in it this morning.” Or I could just smell your breath. (sniff) – Really? Eh, avocados don’t smell strong. – Don’t smell strong. We’ve played this game before. It’s called What they Heck Are They Doing, and the way it works is we show an extreme closeup of someone’s face, and then you have to, given multiple choice guesses, guess what they’re doing. – Yeah. – But this time, you’re playin’ – and I’m hostin’. – (high-pitched voice) And I’m playin… – …and you’re hostin’. – Link there’s 9 million points up for – grabs. You get 1 million points… – Holy cow! …for every one that you get right. If you get 7 million points, my friend, you get a satisfying spa treatment on your face, because it’s all about the face. And if you do not get 7 million points, you get a very unpleasant spa treatment on your face that will be done in Good Mythical More. Are you ready to play – (Rhett) What the Heck Are They Doing? – ♪ (dramatic music) ♪ (Rhett) A.K.A. What’s That Face’s Body Doing? – Yes, I am ready to play. – All right, remember, Link. You have three lifelines. They are — one, I can zoom out; two… – Good. – …I can show you something else – from the picture; or three, I’ll – You are powerful. “make that sound” that I think this person would be making in this photo. – Oh! – You can use all three of those, but… – But only once. Okay. – …you get one of each. And if you win along with me, you can give yourself a spa treatment. – But you have to pay for it. – You’re not allowed to play along at home. Did I mention that? That is the fourth rule. You are not allowed to – play along at home. (evil laughter) – (evil laughter) – Okay, first picture, Link! – First one? Okay, here we go. – (Link) There she is! – (Rhett) What the heck is she doing? (Link laughing) Well, it’s not immediately obvious, because it’s such a tightly – cropped shot, Rhett. – (Rhett) That’s right. Is she A: trying to blow out an enormous wizard candle, B: Dropping a piece of cheesecake, C: Watching her friend tripping on a rug, or D: Try to perfectly match the lip configuration of a short man she is about to kiss who is making the exact same face. – (Link) If anyone is making that face… – Come on, baby. …the last thing I’m thinking is “I want to kiss you.” – (Rhett) Let’s match. – (Link laughing) I don’t know. Dropping a piece of cheesecake… If it was an entire cheesecake, maybe I’d make that face, but I’m not making that face for one piece of – cheesecake. Wizard candle doesn’t seem – Okay. (through laughter) plausible. I’m going with watching her friend tripping on – a rug. C. – (inhales) Oh, Link, I’m sorry. – It WAS dropping a piece of cheesecake! – (incorrect buzzer) (Rhett) Aw, but it’s a big piece of cheesecake. – (Link laughing) That’s crazy. – Link, what the heck is he doing? – (Link) Can you de-pixelate this for me? – Is he A; Getting hand-slapped in the gut, creating a giant skin crater, B: Trying to laugh off the embarrassment of being caught with his fly open, C: Having his leg hair burned off by a fire breather at a steampunk circus, or D: Enjoying a lovely dinner with his friends eating crab legs or perhaps for tea cakes for dessert if there’s room. He’s not sure because he had a big lunch. Oh, what the heck! There’s always room for tea cakes! – Um… – (Rhett sets his mug down) It’s just so pixelated. I mean, my hands are tied here. I’m gonna have to ask for… Can you, um… Can you zoom out a little bit? Sure, and there is an asterisk along with the zoom out, Link. And that is it’s very – pixelated when I zoom out. – (Link) That makes no sense! – (Rhett) In fact… more pixelated than it… – (Link) Look at this! – was originally. I don’t know. – Looks like an 8-bit video game. I got Eddie to make these for me, and he was like, “I had some trouble with the pixelation,” and I was like, “Whatever!” – So that’ what I came up with. – All right, I’m gonna… Trying to laugh off the embarrassment of being caught with his fly open. Uh… – Are you sure? – Leg hair, fire breather, steampunk circus. I’m changing my answer. Final answer. – Hm. Both of those were wrong. – Oh. It was A: Getting hand-slapped in the gut, creating a giant skin crater. – (Link laughing) Whoa! That’s crazy! – (Rhett) Look at that! – You couldn’t tell that from the zoom out? – I would not have guessed that’s the face – you’d be making. – Well, he didn’t make that face like – half a second later, I’m sure. – Wow, that’s amazing. – Okay, Link, you missed both of them. – That’s what that other guy’s thinking. You gotta get all the rest of them right. (scoffs) (Rhett) What the heck is she doing? Is she wing suit base jumping, is she getting her head bitten by a camel, is she C: Being face tazed, or D: Suddenly realizing that despite her best efforts to eat a diet high in fruits and vegetables and exercise regularly, she too, like all the rest of us, will one day become fertilizer. (heavy sigh) (whispering) She’s gonna die, Link, like us. We’re all gonna die. You’re gonna die. I’m gonna die. Worms will feed on us, unless you’re cremated. You could be dropped in a river. – I’m sorry, are you talking? – (Rhett) You may be incinerated. Uh, getting her head bitten by a camel. – Link, you’re right! – B. – (Rhett) That’s exactly what is… – (correct ding) – …happening here. Check that out. – (Link) Oh, whoa! (Link) That’s almost an understatement. She’s being eaten headfirst by a camel. I think that’c a camel kissing her. That’s how camels kiss. (Rhett) What the heck is she doing? Is she A: Trying to catch a flying hot dog in her mouth, B: Falling over backwards on some railing into a – koi pond, C: Dodging an errant… – (laughing) – …frisbee in Matrix-like fashion… – (Link) Oh, yeah. …or D: Appreciating the intricate details of a Baroque-period painting from the comfort of a zero-gravity massage chair bought on sale at Costcooooooo! Mm, she doesn’t seem like the type who would like hot dogs. I mean, just look at those eyebrows. They just scream, “No hot dogs here.” You’ve gotta get this one right to stay alive. Um, falling over backwards, koi pond. I’m gonna go with the koi pond. She’s fallin’ over backwards into a koi pond. So you’re gonna stick with that answer. That might not be the right one… Um, dodging an errant frisbee. I’m gonna go with frisbee. – (Rhett) Okay. – Matrix-like fashion. – That’s incorrect. (laughing) – (Link) Ooh! (incorrect buzzer) (Rhett) She is trying to catch a hot dog in her mouth. (Link) What’s that comin’ out of her mouth? – (Rhett) That’s her tongue. – (Link) Gross! (Rhett) It’s very long. It’s almost the size of a hot dog bun, which I guess is why she likes to catch things in her mouth. – Ooh! Listen, I’m glad to have lost. – You know what, Link? I’m gonna say if you don’t miss any of the rest of them. I’m opening it back up. I just wanna – make it interesting. I don’t want you to – All right, all right. – just be a loser. – All right, (Rhett) What the heck is she doing? A: Finding her roommate hiding in a closet during an intense game of hide and seek, B: Leaping away from an attacking goat in her bedroom, C: Getting proposed to, or D: Realizing that her boyfriend has been under the water in a jacuzzi all this time because he found and latched on to the air teat. – (laughing) – Found that air teat. – Any excuse to say “air teat” twice… – (Rhett) Yeah. …you’re gonna do it. Getting proposed to. That’s kind of boring. Um, an attacking goat. If you commit to making the noise of something else – in the photo that would actually help me… – Yeah. I’m gonna use that lifeline. (bleating like a goat) – I’m going with the goat. – Hey, Link! (clapping) You’re right! – (correct ding) – (Rhett) You knew I was making a goat… …sound. Sounded like a sheep, but that’s exactly — I don’t know how the goat got… …in there, but it got in there, but it got in there and it’s attacking her. (Link) Well, they kept it in that chest of drawers, and the it got angry. – That chest of drawers. – Wouldn’t you be angry if you lived in a – chest of drawers? – Yeah, that chest of drawers, man. All right, Link. You’re still alive! You’ve got one last lifeline and it’s – “show me more.” – Call me Chester. Chester Drawers. – (Rhett) What the heck is he doing? – (Link) Well, I know what’s been done… …to him. He got a pie slapped in his face. A: About to get drenched with a bucket of Gatorade, B: Sulking in defeat at the close of a pie-eating contest, C: In the beginning stages of transforming into Frosty the Snowman for kids at the mall, or D: Realizing he sucks at shaving. (laughing) If you’re at a pie-eating contest… why do you have it on – top of your head? – Great observation. GREAT observation. Um, he does look like he’s at a sporting event that he’s been participating in… – (Rhett) Mmm, mmm! – …where a bucket of Gatorade… – But why would you have… – Why would there be pie, also, right? – That’s a great question. – I’m going with, uh… pie-eating contest for this one. Sulking in the defeat at the close of a – pie-eating contest. – Link. You were on the right track, – and you left the track. (incorrect buzzer) – (Link) Ooh! (Rhett) He is about to get drenched with Gatorade! (Link) That has nothing to do with the picture you showed me. – He had pie on his face! – (whispered) It was a distraction! – Why does he have pie on his face? – But you said, “He looks like he’s at a sporting event.” You should have — Hey, listen. – Is there a… – The lesson here is go with your instincts. – You’ve got great… – Is there a baseball player – that plays baseball with pie on his face? – Yeah, this guy. – He like constantly is pie-faced. – Okay, uh, here we go, Link. This is just for the glory at this point. What the heck is he doing? A: Doing a backflip while riding on a kids’ tricycle, B: Being a passenger on a touring motorcycle doing a wheelie, C: Riding on the shoulders of a man wearing a bear costume in a go-cart, or D: Realizing he’s been locked out of his Flickr account because he forgot his Yahoo password because he hasn’t logged into Flickr for like two years, but he really wants to because he had this really cool picture of himself with some ladybugs that he wants to make his Facebook profile pic. (inhales) And this is not auto-bi-ographal at all. (laughing) And I also can’t say any words today. Wow, well, when you’re trying to cram that many in… You got a lot of ’em right. That was good. – Like 78%. – While you were trying to read that… Nothing is on the line here, Link, so you should just guess. – This is for the people at home. – Um, I think he’s a passenger on – a touring motorcycle doing a wheelie. – (Rhett) You are correct, Link! – (correct ding) – (Rhett) You are so correct, and he’s… – …so happy about it! – (Link laughing) My grandad had that same Gold Wing motorcycle, man. Those things are huge. – Is that your grandad? – That is not him, no. – Okay, Link, I’m gonna skip… – (Link) That’s not me on the back. …to the last one, ’cause I didn’t really like the next-to-last one. Uh… And you can’t win anyway. This is just for, uh, fun. (Rhett) What the heck is she doing? Is she A: Floating in… – (deep voice) Hello there. – …an inner tube — You like her, huh? – She’s just making eye contact. – Okay, well that seemed like a… – (deep voice) Hello there. – …”I like you,” hello there. A: Floating in an inner tube about to get pooped on by a duck, B: Sitting under the world’s largest lawn chair, C: Sitting on someone’s shoulders at a music festival about to get hit in the face with a flying cup of liquid, or D: Whatever she wants, because she’s a strong, independent woman. Well, D is true. I can tell…. by the angle of her… smile. But I’m going to say that she is C: Sitting on someone’s shoulders at a music festival about to get hit in the face with a flying cup of… – filled with liquid! – You know what, Link? You’re right, – but it doesn’t matter! – (correct ding) – (Link) Ho ho, look at that liquid! – (Rhett) Woo! Because you didn’t get 7 million points, and you’re gonna get a very unsatisfying – ♪ (descending chromatic scale) ♪ – facial treatment in Good Mythical More – with some fermented Japanese beans. – Sounds great.
