Emily has "BMX racing", Melvin has "table tennis", Katie has "synchronized swimming" and Anthony has "trampolining". They have 60 seconds to put them in the proper order; when they think they have it they are to shout "final order". If they're right, they win and will split $1,000. If not they will hear a horn indicating the order is wrong. They have 3 tries to get the proper order.
