Episode 3 - February 1

Week three of 13 for Distraction begins. The three contestants today are Signe, who helped to steal an ice cream truck; Kenny, who gets ignored by girls at bars; Karen, who said the most exciting thing about her is not setting a cup on a coaster; and Matt, who hit a girl in a wheelchair with a Frisbee and ran away. The first round today consisted of the normal buzz-in round. However, this time, contestants wore Devo-style plant pot hats. If you knew it, jump on the trampoline under you and hit the ceiling with your head to buzz in. To make it fair, the ceiling was different heights for everyone, making it the same distance to jump.

This time, all the questions had to do with song lyrics. Our host, Jimmy Carr, would read part of a lyric, and players had to finish it. Karen quickly slams her head off the ceiling and gets a point for knowing the song lyric "Oops, I did it again". Matt, however, picked up two knowing "Sweet Dreams are made of these" and "Friends say I should act my age; what's my age again?" Kenny finally locked in with one knowing a Spice Girls song. However, Matt came back in answering, "I fought the law and the law won". Karen finally rang in again with "Do you really want to hurt me?" However, Signe missed the last one, which meant she is out of the game.

Round 2 this time was a spin-off of an older round on the first episode. When you buzz in, you get hit in the head with a bottle. Please note that these are breakaway bottles. This time, all the questions were Capital and Country questions. Karen got two right, knowing Seoul is Korea and Vienna is in Austria. However, she did miss on saying that Kabul is the capital of Georgia. Matt locked in, but missed that Budapest is in Hungary. Kenny missed another one right after, not knowing Madrid is in Spain. We really hit the bottom of the question difficulty barrel, but Kenny got Brasília is in Brazil. Kenny locked in the final round, but missed it, not knowing where Prague is located. Through a lot of fake painful looks, Karen and Kenny came out ahead, and Matt is out.

It's time for the final round. The champion today will be playing for a brand new Mazda. Every right answer you get when you buzz in, now, means a nudist enters a small phone booth with you. Note: these aren't necessarily good-looking nudists. Karen picks up three very quickly, much to Kenny's chagrin, knowing the super model in "Fair Game", Cindy Crawford; the actress in "Monster", Charlize Theron; and the actress who was in G.I. Jane, Demi Moore. Kenny finally rang in, knowing who starred in "13 Going on 30", Jennifer Garner. However, Karen, even with a very early buzz, knew the actress in Baywatch, Pamela Anderson. I would have put more, but that's all he got through. Kenny got a second, knowing that Jessica Alba was in "Dark Angel". Finally, Karen locked the game up with the woman who was married to David Justice, Halle Berry. Karen got the final nudist in the booth and won a brand new Mazda. Kenny won two used nudists.

It's time for everyone's favorite Distraction bonus: the damaged car round. Each question right meant a part of the car was safe. Each one wrong meant an eliminated contestant damaged a part of the car. Karen chose questions about Botany, but in reality, they have nothing to do with it at all. It's just a little pre-question story tie-in. The first question was to protect the headlights. She got the first one correct, knowing Demi Moore was going out with Ashton Kutcher. The headlights were safe, but the hood could be gone next. Not for her, though, as she knew Tony Robbins said "Unleash the power within". Two down, but the paint job could be screwed up with multi-colored paint next. However, she did not know who the author of "Naked Lunch" was. Because she didn't, the other 3 eliminated players poured tons of paint all over the car. As Jimmy put it, she had just pimped her ride. The next question would be even more painful, because it was for the windshield. However, it was no trouble for her, as she knew Nia Vardalos starred in "My Big Fat Greek Wedding". The final question answered wrong meant her doors would be keyed. This did not happen, though, as she knew the TV chef Emeril has the catchphrase "bam!" Karen is the big winner today with a brand new Mazda…. with a lot of paint over it!
