00:00If you can find the paddle hidden in this picture, then you can win a romp to our prize-packed house where what you find is what you keep on Finder's Keepers!
00:13And now, here's the host of Finder's Keepers, the man with a concealed identity, Larry Toffler!
00:23That's right, concealed identity, I'm actually my mom. I don't know who I am.
00:29Anyway, welcome to Finder's Keepers, the only show where you can do to our house what you only dream of doing to your house.
00:34And sometimes you can get paid for it, too. We have some contestants who are ready to make some dough and also make a mess of our house.
00:39Let's meet them. Over on the blue team, we have Monica and Santiago. Let's hear it for them.
00:44Yes, and on the red team, we have Angelica and Mike. Let's hear it for them.
00:50You guys feel welcome? And you? Great, well this is how Finder's Keepers works.
00:55In our hidden picture round, the first team to match the clue with what's hidden wins $25.
01:00They also win the right to search a room. If they find the object in the room, they get $50.
01:04If they don't, the money goes to the other team. The team with the most money at the end of the game wins, and they get to go on a wild room-to-room romp to our house for some terrific prizes.
01:14It's as easy as that. Any questions? None for the blue team. Any questions for the red team? None for the red team.
01:19Well, let's take a look at some of the objects we will be hiding.
01:22This is a boat. This is a bat. This is a hippo, and this is a tyrannosaurus.
01:29History lesson here, I guess. Let's take a look at the first picture.
01:33It's entitled, Midnight Snack. Yummy. Yeah.
01:41First clue is for the right to search Sherlock's study.
01:44We don't know where Cleopatra's daddy is hidden, but this is her mummy.
01:48Blue team, first on the bell. Go find it, Santiago.
01:52You got it right there. You got it, blue team. That's it. The old mummy. Good job, blue team.
01:59Next clue, this is for the right to search the kids' room.
02:03Of all the beasts of the Stone Age, this was the... Red team, first on the bell. Go ahead and find it.
02:12No, no. You took a gamble. You buzzed in early. Sometimes it pays off, but this time it didn't.
02:17Blue team, I'm going to give it to you. You'll have five seconds to find it.
02:19Of all the beasts of the Stone Age, this was the most high-flying. Find it, blue team.
02:26There you go. You got it. You'll find that one there.
02:29That's it. Right up there in the clouds, the most high-flying.
02:31So the blue team, they're off to a quick start. They got 50 bucks. They'll be searching at least two rooms.
02:35Red team doesn't have any dough yet, but I'm sure they'll pick some up in a hurry.
02:39Why don't we go say hello to our contestants right now, shall we?
02:41Hello, contestants. How are you guys doing?
02:43Fine.
02:44Great. Monica, tell me about yourself.
02:45Well, I'm Monica, and I'm from the blue team, and I love...
02:50Okay. I love spending my time with pets, and I enjoy dancing.
02:54Ah, great. Terrific. And Santiago, tell me about you.
02:56My name is Santiago, and I like to ride my skateboard and play softball.
02:59Softball and skateboard, but not at the same time. Obviously.
03:02All right. Welcome to Finders Keepers. You got 50 bucks. I'm sure you'll do great.
03:05Let's say hello to the red team over here. How are you guys doing?
03:07Good.
03:08Great. So tell me about yourself.
03:10Well, I like to be called Ruby. I enjoy dancing, and I'm in the seventh grade.
03:14How does Angelica become Ruby?
03:16Ruby's my middle name.
03:18Ah. All right, Ruby. And Mike, tell me about you.
03:20I like to collect aircraft carriers and soon to fly off one.
03:24Fly off one. It's going to be one of those hot shots, isn't it?
03:27All right. Well, good luck to you guys. No money yet, but I'm sure you'll pick some up in a hurry.
03:30So we got $50 for the blue team. None yet for the red team, but we're marching on.
03:33This is for the right to search the living room.
03:35When this guy plays Finders Keepers, the Tyrannosaurus...
03:39Red team, first of all, go find it.
03:43There you go. You got that, red team.
03:46They knew where it was before, but they found it again, so the red team has 25 bucks.
03:50Next clue. This is for the right to search the artist loft.
03:53This is how Dracula drives Franken...
03:56Red team, first of all, go ahead and find it.
04:00Jump again. That's good enough. You got it. Good jump. Good job.
04:04Whoa. That's on the floor.
04:06The old bat, the full clue was this is how Dracula drives Frankenstein batty.
04:10Obviously enough, it was the bat.
04:12So in a hurry, the red team ties it up. They got $50. They'll be searching two rooms.
04:15The blue team has $50. They'll be searching two rooms.
04:18We are going to search those rooms right now. Let's go, guys.
04:23Let's take a look at our crashable pad.
04:26We'll flush out intergalactic waste in Buck Rogers' bathroom,
04:30work up a horrible sweat in the swamp,
04:33trudge through the horse flop in the cowboy's bunkhouse,
04:36and do some totally deductive destruction in Sherlock's study
04:40in the madhouse we call home here on Finders Keepers.
04:53Boom! Yeah, welcome back. We are in Sherlock's study.
04:55Take a look around, guys. There's a lot of things you can trash.
04:57There's a whole pipe rack and a desk there, hat rack behind you.
05:00There's a table full of stuff over here.
05:02And over here, there's a fireplace with pipes and elephants and all sorts of things.
05:05Take a good look. This is for $50.
05:07If you don't find it, the money goes to the red team.
05:09Sherlock and Watson wanted to play Dungeons and Dragons.
05:13All they needed was this. Find it.
05:16Take a look at the whole room.
05:20Remember, the whole room is yours.
05:23So again, Sherlock and Watson wanted to play Dungeons and Dragons.
05:26All they needed was this.
05:28Yikes, the table's wiped out by Santiago. Is that your desk?
05:31Yes, you got it right. You got it right.
05:34The old mysterious siphoned dragon there.
05:37Good job, guys. You pick up $50.
05:39And we're moving on into the old kids' room. Come with me.
05:45You got a room like this at home?
05:47No. Do you? No.
05:49All right, well, don't be afraid to trash it, because your mom won't punish you.
05:51Come on over here, Santiago. Don't be shy.
05:54Don't be that bold, though. Stay right there.
05:56This is for $50. If you don't get it, well, you know what happens.
05:59The money goes to the red team.
06:01A famous horse race in Kentucky or a kind of hat.
06:05A famous horse race in Kentucky or a kind of hat.
06:08Find it.
06:11Take a look all over the room, Santiago.
06:14Balls are coming out of the window.
06:18They've dumped the garbage can upside down.
06:24Take a look, guys. The room belongs to you.
06:27Don't be shy.
06:29A famous horse race in Kentucky or a kind of hat is your clue.
06:34Steady the balls from the ceiling.
06:40Wow, time right on. Did you know what you were looking for?
06:43No.
06:44Oh, it was a derby. A Kentucky derby or a kind of a hat.
06:47This is it. The old derby there.
06:50So, the $50 goes on over to the red team.
06:52Again, we have ourselves a tie score.
06:54And I'm going downstairs to see the red team.
07:02Hiya, red team. How you doing?
07:04Feel good about the tie score? Yeah.
07:06All right, this is for $50. If you don't find it, well, then the blue team picks up $50.
07:10These are what you're aiming at when you whomp your thumb with a hammer.
07:14I'll give it to you one more time.
07:15These are what you're aiming at when you whomp your thumb with a hammer.
07:20Find them.
07:21Take a look throughout the living room.
07:28All right, just go in detail. Take it a little bit.
07:31Check the whole room. Don't be shy. It belongs to you.
07:35Yeah, go on. Get out of your way.
07:40Don't be shy, guys.
07:44Say it again. Yes, you got it. That's right.
07:46You got it, the old nails. With what? Four seconds left.
07:49Ooh, did you think you were going to find them? No.
07:51Ooh, but you did. They got the old nails. Good job.

08:55You found two things.
08:56Red team has $200.
08:57Blue team has $100.

11:07I'm going to give it to you.
11:08You have five seconds to find it.
11:09You may have to step in what's overflowing from the toilet
11:12before you can find this.
