I've wanted to be on the show for eleven years, Mario. Want to take a battle of the written test for the honor?

Yeah, that was me you heard, Mario.

Who are you and what have you done with Kazoo?

Not even a comment about him using the ATA on the first question?

I did think that was kind of weird, even after he said that he thought it was India. It kind of reminded me of 5th Grader when the contestants say the right answer and then decide to peek at/copy off the kid's answer.
