Find the threatened float
In a fictional bomb-threat mini-game, Curtis lists eight parade floats and the group eliminates candidates to find the threatened one. A proposal to eliminate Santa Brad would remove Brad’s voting rights, but that option is never selected. There is no individual winner or numerical score.

RECORDED ANSWER / CHOICE
Eight floats at risk
The options are the K-pop float, a cocoa hot tub, a Cheers bar, Santa Brad, gingerbread Nakatomi Tower, a giant Christmas sweater with Andalusian goats, High School Musical, and Island Niles on a sandy flatbed. The “flatbread” misunderstanding becomes a joke.
RECORDED ANSWER / CHOICE
First elimination: sweater and goats
Before any clue, the group chooses the sweater/goat float over a High School Musical suggestion. It contains no bomb. The collective result is explicit; individual votes are not assigned.
RECORDED ANSWER / CHOICE
Second elimination: cocoa
The first clue says it is fitting to take down the float “in this season.” The recording confirms the quoted clue ends at “this season.” The group interprets season as the Frasier season and eliminates cocoa, incorrectly.

Third elimination: the K-pop float
The next clue says, “I don’t care how much joy it brings, it must go.” Despite discussing High School Musical, the group destroys its own K-pop float. It is not the target.
RECORDED ANSWER / CHOICE
Fourth elimination: High School Musical
“White men always think they’re the hero” points the group toward Zac Efron. Sneha is asked for agreement; after briefly reconsidering the surviving options, they select High School Musical and successfully find the bomb. Individual assent voices are not invented.
RECORDED ANSWER / CHOICE
Island Niles closes the surviving parade
Curtis explains that “season” meant winter, the joy clue referred to Daniel, and the hero clue to Zac Efron. Two unused clues concern children and the speaker singing after the float is gone. Cheers, Santa Brad, Die Hard and Island Niles survive; Santa Brad moves earlier so Island Niles can close the parade.
