Hey, hey! Focus up, America! Today, one of us will be the moderator in a focus group... And the other will be participating in that same group. Now, the participant must read all the answers on his survey. The thing is, his completely embarrassing answers have been written by the moderator. If you can't read every answer, in its entirety, you lose. Shh. Q's really focused. Murr, the dress code today was Steven Seagal, so good job. [ Both laugh ] [ Door opens ] Hi, everyone. Welcome to Focus Suites. Q: Look at this guy. Joe has got to answer all the questions that Murray wrote for him as his own and own those answers. So, Murr, if Joe answers all those questions, you lose. Okay. So, first, Michelle, where do you get your news primarily from? Mostly from social networks. Social networking. So online. Okay. And how about you, Erica? Yeah, I said Twitter but also social media in general. Okay, and, Joe, where do you get your news from? Sal: Here we go. I think I ate too much cheese this morning. [ Both laugh ] That's what you wrote as the answer? Yeah. Uh, re-reading this, I guess, uh...I misunderstood. [ Both laugh ] Okay. [ Chuckles ] How did you get here today? Michelle? -Train. -You took the subway? And Alexis. -Subway. Murr: Subway. And, Joe, same question. Oh. I took this a little bit more. This is all open interpretation, but I said, "subway," but originally, I came here from my mom's Tallahassee, A.K.A. her rubber ducky... [ Laughter ] ...A.K.A. her strawberry smoothy. [ Laughter ] [ Chairs crashing ] Sal: Murr's getting his ass handed to him. Does price greatly influence your choice of technology purchases? Howie, how about you? Yeah, as a poor student, I would say it does. It does, for sure. And, Joe, how about you? I wrote, uh... I have a wife and Bichon Frise who spend money like it's coming out of my wiener. [ Laughter ] Sal: Murray, you got to get Joe here, man. He's coming out swinging. I'm sorry. What is a Bichon Frise? It's a Bichon Frise. It's a little puppy. How does the Bichon Frise spend your money? Oh, the Bichon Frise eats a specialty diet, via the wife spending the money like it's coming out of my metaphorical wiener. Joe really took ownership of that one. I feel like there was some truth there. [ Laughter ] Okay. You better pull out a big gun, Murr, because he has got you on the ropes. Final question -- Joe, on a lazy Sunday afternoon, what is your preferred activity? Mm. Yeah. I Dutch oven my cats, mostly. [ Laughter ] Look at this guy! Joe: No, I Dutch oven my cats 'cause that's what I said. [ Laughter and applause ] Joey! Looks like we've gotten through every question. [ Buzzer ] [ Laughter ] Okay. How's everybody feeling today? -Good. -Good? So, why don't we get started? Nicole, what is one word that you wish people would use to describe you? Passionate. Okay. That's great. Jacob? A New Yorker. New Yorker? That's good. Sal, what is one word that you wish people would use to describe you? Joe: Here you go, Sal. I wrote "papilloma." Murr: One word to describe yourself -- he's got an S.T.D. Like, human -- I just answered very honestly, and I recently went through a little bit of a situation. [ Laughter ] So, you want people to describe you -- "That guy Sal -- He's a real papilloma"? [ Laughter ] Uh, also, uh... driven. [ Laughter ] Leslie, have you ever served jury duty? Yes, twice. Yes? Oh, twice? Yes. Okay. Nicole? Okay. All right. Uh, Vincent? Yes. Yes? Uh, Sal, have you ever served jury duty? Uh, yes. Uh, I sent a man to die in jury duty, actually. It was a hoot. [ Laughter ] It was a hoot? What did he do? Unclear. Unclear. Unclear? But you sent him to die. No, no, no. It's -- It's -- It was -- It was -- It was circumstantial. [ Laughter ] You sent a man to die on an unclear, circumstantial crime?! All right. How do you give back to the community, Jacob? Through working as a counselor. Okay. Working as a counselor? Sal, how do you give back to the community? I go to kids' school, and I rap about my time that I spent in jail so they don't make the same mistakes as I did. [ Laughter ] -Give a rap. -Yeah. [ Laughter ] All right. [ Beatboxing ] Joe: That guy's helping him out! [ Beatboxing continues ] [ Rapping ] ♪ Don't make the same mistakes I made ♪ ♪ Don't get yourself taken out of grade 11 ♪ ♪ And go up to heaven ♪ Joe: Look at Q! He's just enjoying it! ♪ Yo, 'cause you were a fool when you were in school ♪ [ Beatboxing stops ] Give me five. [ Laughter ] Murr: Respect. Um, well, we'll just skip to one last question. Who is your favorite celebrity, Vincent? That would be Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ -- favorite celebrity? Leslie, favorite celebrity? The person I came up with was Amy Adams. Amy Adams? Oh, she's great. Q: Sal, who is your favorite celebrity? [ Laughter ] Jaden Smith. Who is Jaden Smith? Jaden Smith is Will Smith's son. Joe: Q, I can't believe you're going there. [ Laughter ] Is there anything else? No, that's all I wrote. 'Cause it looks like it goes on. You got to read it, Sal. Uh, I have a tattoo of him on my thigh. 3...2...1. [ Laughter ] You put Will Smith's son on my [bleep] thigh! Could you... Well, if you wanted to see it, I could show it, but I didn't think that would be appropriate, so I'm not gonna show it. I want to see it. [ Laughter ] Yeah, let me see. It's just on my leg. It's just a tattoo of Jaden Smith. It's nothing bad. Okay. Wow. [ Laughter ] He doesn't want to see it. You are not kidding. That's a photorealistic tattoo of Jaden Smith. Murr: Look at his face! I thought he was [bleep] too. [ Ding! ] Uh, good work. All right. Well, guys, thank you so much. [ Buzzer ] ♪♪ Chase: You guys can take a seat wherever you like. How's everybody doing? Q: Moderating is our boy Chase. He's gonna be guiding the whole thing exactly where we want it to go. The topic today is gonna be artificial intelligence. I do need a volunteer for a notetaker. Yeah? Okay. This notepad right here, you can just dictate, sir. Good acting. Sold it. So, for the first question today, how would you describe A.I.? It's man-made... ...computerized. I think of robotics, and I think of artificial. I think it's in many different, like, platforms now. We have it in our cellphones now. Type, Sal. Woman: Controllable, but then it could not be controllable. [ Laughter ] Murr: [ Laughing ] Look at her. Q: She's already in. What aspects of A.I. do you see in everyday life? "Okay, Google." Alexa. Like, Nest. I think it's like a hub for, like, the temperature. Like, thermostats. Woman #2: Oh, okay. Woman: You could, like, update it from your phone. Woman #3: Like, close your garage door. Things like that. Yeah, like -- or even, what is it, smoke detectors? Q: "It went great." [ Laughter ] A.I. can be destructive in that it removes, like, the humanity from people. We begin to rely on things to do work for us other than people. [ Laughter ] Joe: [ Laughing ] "Sexist!" What does that mean? Oh! I'm just -- what I was gleaning from the conversation, but -- When did we say that? No one said that, though. [ Laughter ] What steps can be taken, then, to prevent an A.I.-related disaster? [ Keyboard clacking ] Man: So, like, the self-driving car, I think -- I don't know. I think right now, it has to have a driver still in the driver's seat. I don't know if they're, like... [ Laughter ] Joe: How do you not close it? I'm thinking about just, like, my spouse is very tech-friendly. If I didn't have him, I probably would be, like, still in the Stone Ages. [ Laughter ] How do you keep that open?! Q: Wow. Sal was unbreakable. [ Laughter ] Chase: So, today, we are going to be talking about artificial intelligence. How would you define artificial intelligence? Type, Murr. It's supposed to help us have more efficiency. A computer that can think or any something that can think, something that's programmed initially. The scope to have a conscious, but if we program it with enough, it can do other sums that we can't, and then -- I agree with you. The people who manage that type of technology, they, like, have the... It's just so instant, isn't it? They can be on their phone chitty-chatty with their fingers but can't have a conversation. [ Laughter ] Murr's not closing his laptop. We have to get him to close his laptop here. I think, also, another thing is, like, your photos, and if you lose those, it's not -- And these days, we didn't live the moment, and we sometimes took a photo, and then, yeah, remember this. And then, like... And then we're able to go home and go on the computer, and then there's a lot of negative things on there, a lot of people that put a lot of negative things. Chase: Oh, I see what you're saying. And then it's fueling people to think instead of being connected and going out and seeing the goodness and the love of humanity. So -- But then I don't know if I'm drifting off. I think that you make some good points. Let's review the notes. Yeah, she said, "Your photos, and if you" -- "These days, we want to live in the moment," then, "Oh, I remember this like I never had." "So what do you all think about that? Because I think that we're able to. I think that we should have more interaction and be more connected. And we are able to go home and go on the computer, and there are a lot of negative things on there. Is freaking people to be connected instead of going out in the world. And people could be, like, anonymous, you know? But then I don't know if I'm drifting off." That's all I got. I don't think it was meant to be verbatim. Nailed it. [ Bell dings ] Q: Wow! [ Buzzer ] [ Laughter ] -All right, okay. -Here we go. Joe: Q is in the driver's seat. Murr: So, Q has written all of Sal's answers. Yes. Sal will be reading what Q makes him say. Okay. We have Steven, right? Courtney, uh, Al... He called him Al! Sal. Sal. Sal. Okay, cool. Sorry. No problem. Murr: And here we go. Okay. We'll just start. Dwayne, do you have a nickname? No. No, no nickname. Uh, okay, Al. Do you have a Nickname? -Sal. Um...bologna cheeks. [ Both laugh ] Where did you get the nickname "bologna cheeks"? -Friends gave it to me. -Yeah. It's relatively new. "It's relatively new"! Stuck, huh? It better not stick. [ Both laugh ] You're coming out hot right away, Q. Uh, okay. Let me ask you another one. Please, thinking about smartphones, what comes to mind? Courtney? Apps, taking pictures. Perfect. That was an excellent answer. But you know who I think is gonna have a better answer? -Al? -Al's. Okay. Al, think about smartphones. What comes to mind? The time that I... accidentally sent a naked selfie to my sister... Murr: Oh, my God. [ Laughter ] ...and then she sent one back, so... [ Both laugh ] Joe: Great answer! "And she sent one back"?! Wait a second. She sent back a naked -- a naked picture of herself? He's turning the screws! [ Laughing ] We've all been there. No? [ Both laugh ] Oof. Next question. Steven, you want to start with it? What do you do for fun? I play basketball in my local community center. Okay. Al? [ Both laugh ] It's Sal. I thought I said "Sal" and you said it's "Al." No, it's -- it's been Sal since I've been born. [ Both laugh ] And what do you do for fun? Uh, I love to paint. -Paint. -Mm-hmm. What do you paint? [ Laughing ] There's more to that answer. What I wrote here was... I use acrylic paint... and a mirror between my legs. -What? -What? [ Both laugh ] It's a -- it's art, man. Okay, I'm just not understanding how it works -- It's art. It's subjective. [ Laughter ] Joe: Q is gloating! Q's got something up his sleeve. What are you painting? I do whatever it takes to, uh...make art. Uh, very unclear on what's -- what it means. Ha! You got to answer, buddy. I guess I -- I don't know. Maybe I... taint paint. [ Both laugh ] All right, well, follow-up question for you, then? And I promise it'll be the last one. Murr: It all comes down to this. On a lazy afternoon, what's your preferred activity? [ Both laugh ] Well, it depends. [ Laughing ] He's blowing... If there's a girl... [ Both laugh ] He's pointing the guns at him! [ Laughing ] -If there's a girl with me... -Right. Oh! It's a Mexican standoff! Sal's got a gun! A Mexican standoff! ...I like to be, uh... lazy all over her. [ Laughter ] Let me know if you don't get it. [ Laughter ] [ Ding! ] Oh! He does it! We're all done here. [ Buzzer ] Oh, too bad, Q. ♪♪ Today we're just gonna be designing the perfect city. Joe: Sal wrote Murr's answer. Murr wrote Sal's answer. At the end, they're gonna vote somebody off the island. Imagine you are starting a city from scratch. What's the first thing that you do? Uh, Amber, would you like to answer this one? City planning, infrastructure, and, like, public transportation. Great. Uh, James, would you like to answer this one? Uh, sure. Um, I would separate the C-section people f-- from the vaginal births, just to get an idea of those stats. [ Laughter ] For what reason do you want to know that stat? We should always be thirsty for knowledge, and there's no wrong answers. Yes? -There are no wrong answers. [ Laughter ] Uh, let's go on to the next one. What would the city's sports teams be called? Janelle, would you like to answer this one? Yeah, I just went with the Giants 'cause I'm a New Yorker. -Okay. -That's a good one. Man: Sal, would you like to answer this? I had written -- I thought this was cute. The Mexican Marshmallows. [ Janelle laughs ] And I'd -- And I'd be -- I'd be the captain. Why "Mexican"? Why? Because my friends -- They mess it up and think that I'm Mexican 'cause I'm Spanish, but they get it wrong all the time, so I just put a little of my own personality in the mix. Hmm. Might want to get new friends. I couldn't agree with you more. [ Laughter ] ♪ Dun-neh-neh-neh! ♪ Uh, let's keep moving. Benny, what would you do to encourage business in the city? Benny: Lower taxes. That's what I thought about. Okay. Sal? Uh, I think tax abatements are a great way, and, like, 15 years, no taxes for mom-and-pop shops, and then 20 for the titty clubs. [ Laughter ] I used to run a small business, and I had, uh -- [ Laughter ] Uh, how else would you attract tourists? James? Uh, I wrote "Ladies' Night city-wide on Thursdays, and 5-cent ass-blast wings on Saturdays." [ Laughter ] -Yeah, it might, right? -You're on board with that? Joe: She clearly likes Murray better! How much were the ass-blast wings? Murr: 5-cent ass-blast wings. Okay, Sal, what types of parks and/or other public spaces would you create? I'd grant poor kids access to the sewer immediately. What the hell, dude? -Ohh! -Why? There's a lot of the sewer that is abandoned, and it's ripe for space to re-develop and make into, like, recreational areas. No, you're -- you're saying that I'm creating a city out of thin air like I'm Jesus. I'm talking about -- No, you're not Jesus. You're the Mexican marshmallow. [ Laughter ] I have to agree with Janelle here. [ Laughter ] Okay, uh, James, would your city be more progressive than other cities? I wrote, "Yes, of course. We'd be open to all gay and straight lords." Lords? Gay lords and straight lords. You know. [ Laughter ] Joe: Look at Benny! Benny loves it! Thank you, everyone. I want you to write down the name of a person at this table that you would not take to your city. Oh, this is gonna be good. Janelle, how do you spell your name? [ Laughter ] Uh, it is actually a tie between Sal and James. [ Laughter ] Wow! That means I would have won if I voted for you. [ Buzzer ] Man: Hello. Hi. How are you? Sir, James. Michael, nice to meet you. And? Joe. Joe, nice to meet you. James Murray. Hi, everyone. Thank you for your time and patience today. We appreciate it. Can I just put this here? [ Laughter ] These questions -- there are no right or wrong answer, so please feel free to be honest and we'll have a little fun. It won't take too long. Sal: Joe has got to answer all the questions that Murray wrote for him as his own. Let's start with the first question. Uh, okay. So, what is your opinion on the afterlife? Perla, what did you write to the question? It's a possibility. Great. And, Joe... Here we go. ...what is your opinion on the afterlife? Well, I wrote here, "After I die, I'm coming back as Beyoncé's middle finger." [ Laughter ] Can I ask why her middle finger? Well, statistically, the middle finger is the most used finger on your dominant hand. I don't know if you knew that. So, that would be the one I'd want to be, 'cause I don't want to be an unused finger -- the pinky. Q: [ Laughs ] Put a ring on it. [ Laughs ] He's putting Beyoncé's middle finger right in your face right now, Murr. [ Laughs ] All right. Let's change the tone a little bit. Uh, Michael, have you ever served jury duty? Yeah. And, Celia? I have not. You have not? And, uh, Joe? Um, if I'm gonna be hon-- Have I ever served a jury duty? I-I feel like everyone in this room hates me. [ Laughter ] That's what I... You wrote that? I feel like everyone in this room hates you. Why would you think that everyone in the room hates you? I'm not following the answer. Well, I read people's body language, vibes, and that was just the vibe I was getting, so I feel like everyone in the room hates me. Murr: Okay. Q: Look at Barb! Look at Barb! Finish this sentence. I feel my best when... I can help others in need. Michael, I feel my best when... I feel my best when I'm at work on an event. Joe? Um... Here we go! ...I feel my best when I'm not in this room because this guy definitely hates me. [ Laughter ] Michael, do -- do you mind if I ask? Do you hate Joe for some reason? [ Laughter ] I mean, I could be wrong. [ Laughter ] Q: Murray's playing it well now. Murr: Barbara, if you had one wish, what would it be? To have a home that's paid for. [ Laughter ] And, Joe, if you had one wish, what would it be? Um... [ Laughter ] ...If I had one wish, I wish I was this girl's mirror. [ Laughter ] You wish you were her mirror? Yes. [ Laughter ] So, not money or wealth or world peace? You wish you were Perla's mirror? You said there was no wrong answers at the top of this, so I'm just shooting you straight. If I had one wish, I'd wish I was this girl's mirror. Q: Oh, Joe! F.U., buddy! F.U.! Okay. And then, finally, how do you spend your money? Perla, please? Pay my bills and buy anything I want. Okay. And, uh, Celia? I have down rent, food, clothes, pet supplies, charities, and then out on the town. Q: Out on the town? Okay. Interesting. Okay. And, Joe, final question -- how do you spend your money? Uh, in the past, I had a wife and Bichon Frise spending my money like it was coming out of my metaphorical wiener. [ Laughter ] Uh, currently, I still have my wife and Bichon Frise. I bought a Cockapoo, as well. Um, I... Tricked out a Fiat and a house with a hefty mortgage on Long Island and a baby on the way, and I've got no more [bleep] money, basically. [ Laughter ] So, you spend your money on bills, and then below that, there's nothing left? Nothing after that, yeah. You've got no money left? I live, yeah, paycheck to paycheck, basically. And this guy definitely hates me. [ Laughter ] Q: Joe got through all of the questions! That was one of the most interesting focus groups I've ever participated in. He's a weirdo, huh? [ Laughter ] [ Buzzer ] All right. Okay. So why don't we just get started? Since I was a teen, my sense of humor has always been "out of this world." You know what I mean? For instance... Hello, Earth beings. I'm here invading your Earth camera. Prepare to die as we attack your planet from Moon X. And the music has stopped. What is going on over there? Oh, my God! What the hell is that?! Joe: [ Laughs ] You dork! [ Laughter ] Well, I still wear that fedora. [ Laughter ] And then, uh... All right. My troubled teen years. My nickname was "Clunt Baby." What does that mean? Joe: "What does that mean?" [ Laughter ] What does Clunt Baby mean? All I know is that I came home one day and my mother was like, "What's up, Clunt Baby?" And it just stuck. [ Whistles ] [ Laughter ] Nowadays, I'm the Slump Buster of Staten Island. Joe: Explain it, Q. Murr: Explain it. This is what a slump buster is. Um, do you know how, like, sometimes you go through dry spells in your personal life and you haven't been intimate in a while? Ohh. And you're like, "Well, I got to break this slump," so you just go out and you find anybody. You lower your standards to the bottom, and you get someone that you call a slump buster. That's my zone. I'm the slump buster. [ Laughter ] Clunt Baby busts slumps. Clunt Baby busts slumps. [ Laughter ] Oh, I spent the summer in Jordan. This is, like, your travel part of the movie. Exotic locations, exotic people. Well -- [ Laughter ] Murr: In Jordan. I spent a year in Israel. Here we go. [ Laughter ] So, that's my life. [ Laughter ] On a scale from 1 to 10, how likely do you think that you are to go see this movie? A 5. Probably a 5, also. A 5! Murr: Wow! ♪♪ We are a market research company that works for both independent and network television. We're gonna pitch you possible and potential new television ideas. Fire away. -Yeah. -Okay. Murr: Now, Joe wrote all of Sal's ideas. Sal wrote all of Joe's ideas. So, I'll pitch my first idea. It's called "Eat My Nuts, Witch." [ Laughter ] This show answers the question -- what if we sent a bully from the 1990s to the Salem Witch Trials of the 1690s? Will the bully continue his bullying ways or have a change of heart and save a good witch or two? Witch, please. [ Laughter ] How do you -- How are you portraying the witches? 'Cause they weren't witches. Right? These are just -- Well, they believed in practices that were, at that time, deemed to be supernatural. And so we inject that 1990s teen bully in there, he's going to befriend one of the witches on trial. Yeah, I'd love to see, like, the female, the one that he befriends, be a really strong female. Oh, in these times? Of course. That's what we want to lead with. "And then we burn her." And then she might get -- You said she gets burned. Yeah, she gets burned. [ Q laughs ] -I'll jump in. -Yeah, please do. Murr: Here we go, Joe. Two Wimbledon area drug dealers ply their lucrative trade at the world's most famous tennis court where the cocaine is as white as the clothing and the only thing hotter than the tea is the crack pipe in Queen Elizabeth's hands. It's called "Game, Set, Crack." [ Murr and Q laughing ] It's always fun when you have a little bit of the underbelly shown, and we thought what better than having, like, you know, a queen with a crack pipe? And it's a cocaine story. Well, it's a tennis story wrapped in a cocaine story. -What? -Ohh! Like a "Breaking Bad"... Exactly. "Breaking Bad" for tennis. Sounds great, Joey. -Two good ones. Yeah. You're up. -Okay. "Freaky Every Day." Not "Freaky Friday." -Oh. Just Friday. -"Freaky Every Day." Denise has an important job, a passionate husband, and a mischievous daughter named Bridget. Bridget finds a magic amulet that switches her body with... her dad. -Q: Ugh! -Murr: Oh, my God! [ Murr and Q laughing ] Uh-oh. Now Dad is in a 13-year-old girl's developing teenage body, and Bridget has to be a passionate husband to her own mom! -Q: Oh, my G-- -Sal: And guess what. It's forever. [ Murr and Q laughing ] So think about the kind of box we're painted in in that one. Has to be a passionate husband forever. Well, this 13-year-old is gonna be in the father's body, sleeping with the mother forever? The switch is forever. And then you can't see your mom ever again. Not that she's gonna stay in the relationship forever. "Who's -- So who's banging the mom?" [ Murr and Q laughing ] Q: Sal's covering his face. Look. And just -- It could get so many questions. Like, who's banging the mom? The mom's gonna be banged by whoever she chooses. Seems like a tough elevator pitch. Yeah. -There we go. Right. -Murr: All right, Joey. We're inventors conducting a focus group on our brand-new product. But we have no idea what it is, since the "invention" was created by the other guys. At the end, we'll ask them how likely they are to buy the product on a show of hands. Whoever gets the fewest hands raised loses. -This is gonna be ugly. -You're gonna be ugly. [ Telephone rings ] I'll get it. ♪♪ So, how's everybody's day? Good? -Good. -Yeah, thank you for coming in. Appreciate it. I am an aspiring inventor, so I am here just to showcase some of my prototype/products. I will show you my first product. We threw Joe under the bus right at the top. There's no possible way he can explain this product. Okay, so... Here we go, here we go, here we go. I'm excited to show you the product. ♪♪ -What the hell is this? -[ Laughs ] These here -- [ Laughter ] I'm excited about this product. So, these here I call -- Uh, uh. These are, uh... brick-flops. They're flip-flops with bricks attached on the bottom. [ Laughter ] What is the thinking behind this? The thinking behind this is you know about all the rage is the exercise shoe. When you work out with these, it focuses on the Achilles tendon, which is the weakest part of the leg. Woman: I don't believe you. That looks really crummy, and those look like used flip-flops, and that's, like, a really crappy idea. I wish you would speak your mind a little more. [ Laughter ] Working out's all the rage, and the brick-flop really plugs into the market. Then you put them on and show us. -Yeah, yeah! -Do it! Do it! No, I'm showing them to you. All right. If you'd like me to -- -Yeah, take your socks off. -Of course. I'll be more than happy to show you. She's all over him, man. Well, I mean, these aren't my size. [ Laughter ] [ Glass crashing ] This is not gonna -- Yeah, it's just a prototype. What the [bleep], dude? How much time did you spend on it? This, about 20 minutes. [ Laughter ] The brick-flop is not a concept that you're buying into. -No. -No? -Probably not, no. -Probably not. So, by show of hands, how many people like the brick-flop? Zero. Okay. That was a brick flop. Now, this is a product I wanted to show you guys, I was excited about. This is... Q: Explain that, Joe. This here is, uh... ♪♪ Glasses with side-view mirrors attached. [ Laughter ] The mirrors are not for you. They're for people behind you so they can see behind them. These actually are a great accessory with the brick-flop, if you put it all together. I have to be honest. I really cannot imagine anyone wearing this. Is it the color? [ Laughter ] By show of hands, would you buy this product? -As a gag gift maybe. -So that's a...? I would say maybe, under some circumstances. -There's one. Okay. -Oh! He got one! He gets one. [ Ding! ] Have a seat, please, guys. Have a seat. -Here we go. -Thank you guys for coming.

It's the Crotch Watch. ...Crotch Watch. [ Laughter ] These days, it's all about wearables, right? Right. Crotch Watch takes that to then next level. [ Laughter ] It's great for many purposes. It's Wi-Fi- and Bluetooth-enabled. You can download your e-mail. You can respond to texts. [ Laughter ] As you're running, you can seamlessly, easily check what time it is, your heart rate. It does have a heart-rate monitor in it, too. What vein is it reading? [ Laughs ] I'll show you, for example, how it would work, okay? Let me just... This is worn outside the pants, just so you're clear. [ Laughter ] If you're running -- If you're running and you get tired... [ Breathes heavily ] Read my e-mail. Respond to Sandra.

So, for example, if you would see me... [ Laughter ] I'm actually setting the alarm to go off. "It's also good for the single man." It's also good for the single man. You're out and about in a bar, a beautiful lady asks you what time it is. You tell her to take a look. Okay. Now she's interested. [ Laughter ] No, man. It's the Crotch Watch. [ Laughter ] Sorry. "No, man." By show of hands, how many of you think you would actually purchase the Crotch Watch? -Two! -Whoa! Wow. You're left not knowing what time it is. [ Laughter ] Pleasure to see ya. How you doing? So Q has a product that Sal has never seen. Murr: And Q's got to sound like he's supporting this product. But he's not. But in actuality, he's undercutting Sal the whole time. He's just trying to trip him up. We focus-group products that we create to gauge interest to see if they're worth bringing to market. Joe: And here we go. Q? ♪♪ It's Toxic-O's, the market's newest, hottest rat poison. [ Laughter ] What in the world loves brightly colored boxes, circular-shaped, candy-looking food, characters, and stuff like that? You know, what will look at this and put it in its mouth and die? Rats. [ Laughter ] Tell them about it, Sal. Let me take you through this. Someone comes to my house. -Take us through it. I have a rat problem. Someone comes to my house. They see this, and they might be like, "What is this?" And if I don't want to admit that there are rats in my home, I'd say, "Oh, just a fun cereal." It's interesting that you say that, 'cause a kid did accidentally eat this once. What happened? [ Laughter ] Uh... Joe: Oh, Q has got a home run right here. What turns out is that the poison that affects the rats won't affect the children as -- as much. It would take almost five boxes of Toxic-O's to hurt a child in any way. And to lower the price, we're also offering a bulk version that's approximately five boxes for one low price. So it's all in the house. So it's also economical. But now that I'm saying it loud, that's probably not the best idea, because five b-- Tell them about the toy that you want to put in it -- you know, the collector's edition. We're gonna put a little rat jingly toy in here so when you put the rat poison out and you put the jingly toy, the rat will go right up to the jingly toy and try to play with it. Speaking of jingles, we came up with a great jingle that shows it's just for rats. Sal, why don't you show them? [ Laughter ] Hit it, Sal. Rat-a-tat-tat. Rat-a-tat-tat. Toxic-O's will put your rats to the mat. Ah. Well done. Well done. Take that vote, boys. Let's see how he did. So, just by show of hands -- if you would purchase this, please raise your hand. [ Laughter ] Q has won the game. -There you go, Q. -Nicely done. We probably shouldn't have nutrition facts on it. [ Laughter ] [ Buzzer ] And you're done. ♪♪ Q, I don't know how you did this, but... it's heavy back here. Yeah. I'm surprised you didn't dye it, though. There's a little bit of grey there. Well, I'm not gonna deny the aging process. I don't even like working out or getting my body in shape. Let's just age. -Correct. -Yeah. -Welcome. Welcome. -Hello. Pleasure. So, Joe made Murray's toy, Murray made Joe's toy? Correct. What we do is we test out new products that we're thinking of bringing to market for children. -Okay. Here we go, Joe. -So, this is mine here. This... [ Laughter ] These are Sexy Beasts. [ Laughter ] I got the idea because my daughter put my wife's lingerie on her stuffies. And then, you know, there's something for the ladies too, 'cause you could just have a raccoon with abs. [ Laughter ] So obviously, the walrus has huge jugs. [ Laughter ] [ Snorts ] And the kangaroo is more of a leg-and-back situation. Are these marketed towards adults? This is for children, bought by adults. No. Sorry? No. You gotta think -- it's 2-k-17 now. You have to jump off the shelves, and that's what we're trying to do here with Sexy Beasts. This is a lawsuit, dude. You think this is a lawsuit? Why don't you show them the commercial for Sexy Beasts? Oh. Yeah. I can't wait till you see this one. -What? -[ Laughs ] ♪♪ Woman: [ Sultry ] Babe-A-Roo. [ Laughter ] Hard-Bodied Raccoon.

"A" for effort, but terrible idea. Okay. [ Laughter ] Okay, so...my item... Let's take a look at what this is. Right here. Aha! This is... It's a pregnant belly for children. It's for future single moms, okay? Q: Nice one, Joey. Oh, okay. Oh, there it is. Now, this is a prototype. Okay. [ Laughter ] Uhh... So what this is is it-- it's for little girls that are going to be future single moms one day. [ Laughter ] My daughter, for example, she loves to play single-mom-with-one-on-the-way. Now she can let her imagination run wild and actually experience what it's like to -- to be with child for nine months.

What's your name? -Keisha. -Keisha, how are you? -Nice to meet you. -Francesca. -Francesca, Joey. Call her "Franch." Joe: Have any of you ever done a focus group before? Oh, okay. Francesca: Online one. Oh, you do it online, Franch? -[ Laughs ] -[ Chuckling ] "Franch." Okay, great, so I'll get started. This is... It's a briefcase. There you go, buddy. Open that briefcase. It's kitty litter. [ Laughter ] Are you a business person on the go? Do you have a kitty cat that you love? Do you wish you could bring it with you on the go? -Oh, no. -No. -No? -No. Just because you won't travel with your feline, Franch, doesn't mean that other people wouldn't. All right, so, now this is lockable, so you could -- no one steals your kitty litter. "You know, in some countries..." In some countries... "...kitty litter is more valuable than gold." ...kitty litter is actually more valuable than gold. Sal: [ Chuckling ] What country is that? It's more the Eastern European regions because it's hard to import there. So, like the Slovakias -- Anything that really ends with "-akia." [ Laughter ] But it's easy. If you're on the go, and you just have this -- This is -- Basically, you're carrying your kitty litter with you. "Am I a businessman or am I holding a briefcase full of [bleep]" Is this a briefcase full of cat [bleep] or is it important documents that I need to get to someone?

[ Laughter ] Like, wider, rectangular -- You don't even have to make it deeper... -He's winding up to say it. [ Laughter ] But this is coming at you, Franch. You know, this is a working prototype. I took a [bleep] last week in this in Saint Louis. [ Laughter ] Nothing. This is my carry-on. I take this with me. Take a [bleep] in Saint Louis. Nothing. "Franch, you take [bleep] right?" Oh, wow. [ Laughter ] If you think about it, cats are the only species that you don't have to train, right? Franch, you take [bleep] right? -Mm-hmm.

Any of you guys want to buy it? [ Laughter ] Murr: Hi. How are you guys? Pleasure to meet you. I'm Sal Vulcano. These guys just fight about everything. Come on and have a seat, please. Do you think they would be friends if we weren't in the picture? No. My product that I'm gonna be talking about today... [ Both laugh ] ...is the 47 Hour Energy bar. Finally, right? And then, the other product, that I'm going to be showing you is... [ Both laugh ] They're wireless tin cans. We call these the "cantennas." [ Q and Joe laugh ] Okay. [ Chuckles ] Are you like me? [ Both laugh ] Do you find yourself getting dreary and weary at the 46th hour? I kept on finding that, around the 46th hour, I would start to get tired, and I needed something to get me through that. Wait. This is gonna be the size of it? That is the size of it. How much of it do you need to eat to get your... The whole bar. If you want all 47 hours, you're gonna have to eat the whole thing. [ Laughter ] Say that you need 23 1/2 hours -- right about there. [ Both laugh ] Now, you've seen tin cans before that have been joined by string. So, in the past, you've been limited to the distance that you can communicate with people. So, for example, you talk into this end while the other person's listening, and you just, you know? And it's very -- and then, you can switch, and the other person can listen as you're talking. You know what I mean? It's very much like that. They connect into any kind of Wi-Fi system that you've got, too. Why wouldn't I just use my cellphone? Hello! data-plan costs! Right? [ Both laugh ] $10 for my data plan, unlimited. There is no data plan for these. This fits right in my pocket. You know what doesn't fit in your pocket? A 4-pound bar. It doesn't even fit in your stomach. This is also extremely heavy. That's -- that's a solid foot. Extremely heavy for who -- a Smurf? [ Laughter ] -Wow, it's heated in that room. -Damn. How many of you would bring the cantennas to market, by show of hands? I stick with my vote. -So, one. How many of you guys think an organic, all-natural energy is the way to go? Joe: One, two. -Three. -Thank you very much. Q: Boom! And Murr's out.

If you have the other version? What's the advantage over a single one-line -- You get the extra yo-yo. [ Laughs ] So, it's a yo-- yo-yo-yo-yo, so it's got more of, like, you know. It's a fun name with it. It's probably -- it might, you know, really play to, uh... Joe's starting to sweat. Joe's lips are getting moist. Uh, the lip's going. It's more like, you know...

So this is targeted, basically, for people -- for yo-yo enthusiasts or people that wanted to challenge themselves with a double yo-yo situation.

That was -- you didn't see that coming. [ Ding ] So, I want to show you guys a couple of products today. Joe: All right, let's get into it. So, my first product is... So, Sal, this is Mr. Nightlight. ♪♪ [ Q chuckling ] Allow me to introduce you to Mr. Nightlight. [ Laughter ] So, Mr. Nightlight, it's a hooded, six-and-a-half-foot-tall figurine which is a protector of your children. So, he would stand above the bed or in the corner and, you know -- Slumber, little ones. [ Laughter ] It is motion activated. [ Groans ] And it -- is when a baby responds or child responds, that's like a parent -- Slumber, little ones. And it'll tell them to just go back to bed, everything's fine. So it knows that someone's there watching it, it knows to go back to bed, it lights up the room red. So... Thoughts? [ Laughter ] First of all, scared the crap out of me. Out of you? He looks like the Grim Reaper. He looks like the Grim Reaper? -What is up with all this black? -Why all black? The Grim Reaper has a sickle and has, like, a skeleton face. But it looks like something that's coming to kill me. So, if I'm scared, then I feel like, you know, more color, maybe a fluffier toy or something, and not sexual sounds. -Sexual sounds? -Like, "Mmmm." Like, why -- why are we -- No, that was meant to be soothing. It's not soothing at all. Like, I don't know how kids -- Why don't you make a bear, like fluffy bear? So, bears are predatory and terrifying. Not at all. Bears? Bears are cute, yeah. I mean, they kill hundreds of people a year. Like, you know... [ Laughter ] What if we put him under the bed? -No! -So it's not, like... She went, "No!" So, you think then we should have a -- Slumber, little ones. [ Laughter ] Picture that from under the bed. Could have an arm that crawls out from under the bed, too. We don't want to scare kids. Yes. By show of hands, how many people think that this might be a viable product? Nothing! [ Groans ] We'll let this one slumber. -How are you today? -Hello. How are you? -Here we go. -We develop toys. And we're deciding which one we might move forward in developing and going to market with. All right, Sal. What's your toy? Uh, I'll help you. I'll pull it out for you. Q has designed this toy for Sal. Now, this is really exciting. This is next level, guys. -Let me see. -Oh yeah. You really outdid yourself. Oh, wow. Oh, wow! -Okay. Oh, wow. -Boom. Murr: [ Chuckling ] It's a toilet with guns on it. [ Joe laughs ] We call this Toilet Soldiers. And this can make any standard-sized toilet into a whole entire military base. [ Laughs ] You want children to play with a toilet. Sal: It actually is ergonomically the perfect battle station. ♪♪ There you go. This is...if the kid is also on the toilet, "I'm in here. Don't come in!" Boom! Shoots the gun at the door, like kinda thing. So it's combining privacy -- it's making it more masculine, more fun. What happens if the boy takes the G.I. Joe, pretends he goes up the ladder, sticks his hand in the dirty toilet water and does all that? -Ooh. -Okay so, we -- I... I envision that the child would play before the making. But that's not how it's always gonna happen. Kids do whatever they want. I will tell you. We showed this to children, and their eyes lit up. That's fine. But you got to think about the dirty water. Joe: This guy is all over Sal. You still got the, uh, the ladder? -Yes. -Okay. So they're gonna bring in their own soldier and climb the ladder and, "Oh, let's see if he can swim." The ladder opens up and, guess what? "Look, there's water. He could go swimming in the water." Okay. So the ladder... I would remove the ladder. I'll move -- move -- move -- the ladder!

And who thinks Brian had the better toy? [ Laughter ] God forbid something bad happens to your sister, who's the hero that's tracking her down? [ Laughter ] -Sal loses! -That's it! So, Sal and I work for a well-known toy company. So, what we need your help with today is your honest opinion on several toys that we've developed. Here we go. So this toy... Now, Sal's made this for Murray. Okay. Let's see what we got here. Okay. It's Grandpa Whoopsie. [ Laughter ] Research shows that children are extremely scared of their grandparents because of the accidents they often have, right? So what we do here is we've created a doll that teaches them not to be afraid of their incontinent grandparents. [ Laughter ] I'll show you how it works. You remember the dolls that piss and stuff like that? Basically, the kid at home can pump it up and see what happens to Grandpa. Oh! Geez! I -- I -- excuse me. [ Laughter ] As you can see, you pump up, and Grandpa Whoopsie becomes incontinent. "Whoopsies" -- you know, an accident happens. Oh, I'm so sorry! Oh, my God, Murr! You think children want to hold a senior-citizen male penis? This happens to all of us when we get older. I mean, you and I often have trouble urinating, right? That's -- That's not true. We do. We -- We use the restroom, we think we're finished, we go to walk out, and then we fall and wet our pants. We talk about this all the time. That's true! Yeah, they do talk about it a lot. Uh, you also have a commercial for this one. Let's take a look. Who am I? [ Laughter ] [ Laughter ] [ Laughter ] -All right. -Okay, you're up, Sal. Let's see what Murr made for Sal here. All righty. Joe: This looks like -- more like a man's doll. Q: Let's see what he turns this into. This is Heather, and she's the cookie monster, basically, for girls. He gets it! Woman: Yeah, what is that? [ Laughter ] What do all kids want to do? They want to eat a whole box of cookies, right? And they can't, but the kids are going to live vicariously through her 'cause she has enough room in the receptacle, which is the head, to eat an entire box of cookies. [ Laughter ] It's the outfit that's the problem. [ Laughter ] And then, you will be able to unzip here and empty the cookies out and then she can eat a whole box of cookies again. You feed cookies into it just to open the pouch in the back? That's about the dumbest idea I've ever seen. [ Laughter ] I just came out of a thing that I always wanted more cookies and I wasn't allowed to have them. And the parents are going to buy this, knowing the purpose of the doll. I can see dads buying it. [ Laughter ] Aw, man! I'm sure there's a commercial, right? Yeah, we -- we -- we produced one, but it ended up being just a huge mess. We couldn't do it. There wasn't a cookie in the whole commercial. There was -- They made the whole commercial without a cookie in it, and so, it's like, "All right." That's not gonna -- that's not gonna sell the doll that we're trying to sell. [ Laughter ] Murr: We can only bring one of these to market, okay? How many of you think we should bring Grandpa Whoopsie to market? -Yeah, there you go. -How many of you think we should bring Heather to market? -A one. There you go. -And? Deciding vote. [ Laughter ] -All right. You got it. -All right, so it's a tie. We have our first deadlock ever! Wow! [ Ding ] Okay, well, my name's Brian Quinn. These are prototypes we're gonna present to you, and here's the first one. Murr: What do you got, Q? Geez, they really wrapped this up good for me. All right. [ Laughter ] That looks scarier than my night light. The Artificial Intelligence Teller Machine. This is the Artificial Intelligence Teller Machine. It's an ATM that looks like a banker, okay? So, what we got here is a, you know -- technology's scary to people. We want to put a human face on the ATM. Murr: That's a human face? We come to Alan -- boom. Sal: "And it goes right in his mouth, if you were wondering." And then, in case you're wondering, you slide that right in his mouth. Right on in. So, you're like, "Here you go." Is there a reason he has detached retinas? There we go. Okay, there we go. You need that money. Where's that come out? Try the pockets. Where's the money come out of? Try the pockets. Make it rain. So, there you go. I mean, look, man, this is the future of banking right here -- Alan. What do you guys think? Let me get some feedback. In terms of advice... [ Laughter ] He's right to be speechless. Why have the reader in his mouth? I think it'd be cool if he had the reader in his hand. Oh, I see what you're saying. Yeah, like, that -- that would literally feel more personal because there's an element of touch. Right. Yeah. But here's the thing about that. The thing that I don't like about ATMs the most -- -You touch it. -...is the germs! -Yeah. -This, it's like... Joe: Oh, good reversal! -Boom! -That's a little creeps. That's creepy? It's just weird in the mouth. And isn't he supposed to talk from the mouth? Like, then the card's just chilling there. Yeah, so this isn't a very consistent universe. Now they're just arguing the merits of it, not that it's ridiculous. He's crossed over. He might get a hand raise. Well, okay, well, let me ask you guys a question. Just show of hands if you guys think that you would use Alan. [ Laughter ] -It's a zero. -All right, Alan. Later, bud. [ Buzzer ] -Hi, guys, how are you? -Hello. Hi. Hello. Joe: Have a seat. How's it going? What we do here is present our ideas to video games, and then it'll say who's going to the next phase of development. All right, let's see the ideas. So this is just one of my ideas that I got. I'm very proud of this one. It's..."Superman: Just the Clark Kent Stuff." [ Laughter ] Sal: You're only Clark Kent. Let's be honest. There have been a bunch of Superman games already, you know? We never have really nailed the character. Yeah, yeah. You're, like -- Q: He's at the Daily Planet, right? Lunch break with Lois Lane. You got to clean your house, but not at super speed. you got to get to Kansas -- It's a connecting flight -- to visit ma and pa Kent. This is the most boring game ever. All right, well, I'll get into mine, I guess. Okay, so, here's mine. Mine's a little different. [ Laughs ] Look at the face. "Murder Your Family." [ Laughs ] So, here -- It really is just -- You want to -- Sometimes you're like, "Ohh, I could kill them," you know. We think of video-game violence. We flip it on its ear here and give the kids the power to murder their own families. It's like you have to build contraptions and you have to track them. We put it in a fun world where you could actually just vent and no one gets hurt. [ Laughter ] Woman: Get a therapist if you need it. There's other ways. Q: Oh, there's a level where Clark goes to a therapist in this. Really? Yes! So he needs one? Yeah, sure, 'cause he's got all the power of a god and he's got to keep it contained, so he goes to a therapist. Wow, Q. Nice. So, is like the last level, like, you get to become Superman? 'Cause that's really what everybody wants. No, no, last level -- You got to figure out how to do the spit curl. So at the end of the game, it's like [Humming fanfare] [ Slurps ] [ Both laugh ] There's also a huge shareability content here, where you could actually download the videos of the way you murdered your families in a fun way, and then you can e-mail it to people. I mean, I need, like, excitement, but not Charles Manson. [ Laughter ] I say take this idea before the PTA or something and see what the parents say. They wouldn't let us in. Bingo. Murr: [ Laughs ] Anyways, take the vote, guys. If you think that "Murder Your Family" is the better game between the two, please raise your hand. [ Laughter ] Yeah, so, who would pick "Superman: Just the Clark Kent Stuff"? Show of hands? One, two, three. Yep. Well, thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you. Murr: Nicely done, "Q.": [ Bell dings ] All right, brother. You ready? Ready to sell some scents. I'm feeling pretty good. I'm feeling, like, in a bull[bleep] type of mood. Yeah? The two smelliest friends we have are about to go head-to-head. I'm not a smelly friend. [ Laughs ] Hey, hey! What's going on, guys? Sal: How's everybody doing? Hello, and welcome -- welcome in. We work for a cologne and perfume company -- a fragrance company -- and we have new scents that are going out to market, and what we're doing here is we are workshopping the campaign, just getting your honest feedback. So, uh, we have two fragrances. ♪♪ [ Laughter ] What is it, Sal? Uh. Ee-ver com-pon-sah. [ Laughter ] This is, uh, a smell from France -- a fragrance from France. Uh... we sell it in very, very small portions, but it has a very... huge appeal. [ Laughter ] Joe: She knows what he's talking about. Q: Uh, here we have, uh... ♪♪ [ Laughter ] ...Mother's Musk. Oh! What is more beautiful and more natural than motherhood? The first smell that you smell when you come into this world is your mother's musk. Oh, God. She's got perfume in her uterus. Oh, no, it's a marketing tool. I mean, come on, it's not like we're putting a little bit of placenta in each bottle. You know, which we tested. That didn't work out. [ Laughter ] Maybe if I tell you about the commercial. A mother is giving birth... and -- and -- and the doctor is in front of her, delivering, and instead of a baby, out comes a hand... holding a perfume bottle. [ Spectators groan, laugh ] Murr: Oh, my God! And the doctor holds it up and then sprays some on and then goes out to a play. [ Laughs ] That is not a good ad campaign. [ Laughter ] And not a lot of people are gonna relate to that. Can you relate to a fine suit, a handsome gentleman, and a nice car? You sure can. With ew-ver com-pon-sah -- Overcompensate? What? [ Laughter ] Overcompensate? Ew-ver com-pon-sah. Overcompensate. Tiny package, big smell? It's not just for guys with little [bleep] -- it's for everybody. It's for all [bleep] [ Laughter ] By a show of hands, how many of you think the ew-ver com-pon-sah ad campaign is the better campaign? Oh, let's see. Wha-- oh! Nine! [ Laughter ] Unbeatable. Sorry, I've never had a full sweep before. [ Buzzer ] Wow! What did you do? I don't even know what happened to me today. Sal: Joe, you could have took an iron to that thing. You look like an old turtle. -Q looks way better than me. -It's unbelievable. It feels good to be on this side of the equation. -Hi, guys. -Hello! Hi! We're presenting our book to groups. And at the end, we're gonna take a vote out of which one you think should get published. Okay? So, my book here is... It's, uh... [ Chuckles ] "Joey Turncoat: How I Disgraced My Country During Battle." [ Laughter ] A memoir of sorts by me, Joe Gatto. Why do you have a black suit on? I didn't want to wear the uniform. Well, they took it from you, right? -Well, that, too, yeah. -Right. You can show them yours. Okay. Mine is, uh... It's a comic book called "Swamp Ass Thing." [ Laughter ] Murr: Since Q loves comics so much... We gave him a fresh take on an original. -Well, fresh take? -[ Laughs ] It's about a scientist afflicted with hellish swamp ass, which, as, you know, is... Right. It's a sweaty badonkadonk. [ Laughing ] Sweaty badonkadonk! Mine's more a story of truth. You know, I was in, like, the whole Afghanistani area. "Afghanistani"? And I did a short tour in Costa Rica. It's a little island in the middle of the Caribbean. -But you never know. -Costa Rica is not an island. You weren't there, man. It was disgrace all over the map, from tales of kidnapping children to get out of interrogations to "accidentally" shooting a sergeant in the foot. [ Laughter ] To get out of a tight pinch, I'll trade a secret in a heartbeat. Tell me more about "Swamp Ass Thing." One night he was working in his lab, and, you know, lightning hit the lab, and he fell into a vat of... ass deodorant. Ass deodorant? And he emerged... ...Swamp Ass Thing -- that's right. -She's on board with it. -She's on board. You got her. He uses his new powers to, uh, freshen up people's asses. [ Laughter ] Well, he walks over to someone and, like... Phttt! -Oh, no! -Swamp ass gone. And then, also, he fights crime. Secondary. Oh, anybody with swamp ass. -You've had it before? -[ Laughs ] Let me ask you something. How great would it have been if somebody had the Swamp Ass sense, swooped right in, phttt? I kidnapped the vice president. [ Laughter ] I'm a desgraciad. If you feel they should publish the ongoing adventures of "Swamp Ass Thing," please raise your hand now. -One, two, three! -Three! If you think the company should publish my book, please raise your hand. -Oh! Five! -Five! Sal: Q goes down! [ Buzzer ]
