The Wheel Returns | Smosh Mouth 157
On Smosh Mouth episode 157, Amanda, Shane, Chance, and Tommy play the wheel game where they spin to get a number (1-10) that determines the intensity or quality of their responses to various categories including tourist spots in LA, pickup lines, superheroes, prom proposals, restaurant complaints, breakups, and farewells. The hosts guess the numbers based on the performances.
Summary
This episode of Smosh Mouth features the return of the wheel game, a game where one person spins a wheel to land on a number between 1-10, and then performs or responds to a category prompt at that intensity level, with other players trying to guess the number. Shane was originally supposed to be on vacation but returned because Chance and Tommy specifically wanted him in the episode, leading to jokes about Amanda spanking everyone in his absence.
The team plays through multiple rounds with different categories. For 'Tourist Spots in LA,' they struggle to rate locations like the Hollywood Walk of Fame and the Grove, eventually landing on 4 as the number. For 'Cringey Pickup Lines,' they perform various cheesy and uncomfortable lines, with the answer being 8. The superhero discussion leads to debate about Superman being boring but powerful versus Captain Underpants being hilarious but ineffective, landing on 1 or 2.
In the 'Prom Proposal' round, Chance creates an elaborate scenario with pig-shaped balloons and the line 'when pigs fly,' which devolves into the other hosts accusing him of calling Amanda a pig. Tommy's proposal involves breaking into song with a group of guys doing breakdancing, while Shane's attempt to propose outside in freezing weather goes poorly. Another round involves rating how bad food returns at a restaurant are on a scale of 1-10, with responses ranging from slightly cold tamales to completely wrong dishes.
The episode also includes extended conversations about desserts and favorite treats, with the hosts discussing brownie preferences, fancy ganache cakes, root beer floats, and specific Oreo flavors (particularly orange Halloween Oreos being the best). Amanda shares a story about dating someone who immediately got a new boyfriend who looked almost identical to her, and how his friends knew about it the whole time but said nothing.
Throughout the episode, there are recurring jokes about Chance supposedly sewing his butthole shut, references to the 'pretty tree' insult, and extensive mic-grabbing by Chance. The episode ends with a final round of 'Fart Goodbye' where everyone gives their version of a farewell combined with a fart, with Shane's screaming version being deemed as needing a hospital visit.
Key Insights
- Amanda reveals she experienced a situation where her ex-boyfriend immediately started dating someone who looked nearly identical to her and posted about it on Instagram within days, while his friends all knew about the new relationship the entire time but said nothing to her
- The hosts debate that Superman as a superhero is boring because he is so powerful that he never faces real danger or challenges, making Superman stories primarily about humanity rather than Superman himself
- Tommy argues that orange-colored Halloween Oreos are objectively the best Oreo flavor, despite other options like mint, with something about the specific orange shade making them superior
- During a prom proposal scene, Chance's use of the phrase 'when pigs fly' with pig-shaped balloons is interpreted by the other hosts as calling Amanda a pig, leading to extensive discussion about whether he was insulting her appearance
- The hosts agree that bad actors in Los Angeles are worse than in other places because they have better facades and pretend to be better people, whereas back home it's more obvious who is a bad person
