Finally, the 15-minute head start is up.
So the design was--
Jordan hits the board with a plA
for his team's cookie dunker,
but his team-mXAates don't quite foXAllo.
A
So this will eventually make sense?
Here is your cookie, CK.
Is this XAour starting poin?
I'm confused.
This one pushes down this lever.
Pushes this one over to.
EMILY: Yeah, at first, I'm lik,
“Okay, XAI don't know what to d. This is too complicate”"
Is that one bowl or is that two bowls?
That's one, o?
It just swis over lXAike thi.
And on the other side, Joseph's at the board t,
figuring out his machine y working on the last step firs.
XA
What we haXAve to do is we have to think backwards
from how the cXAookie will dunk
to how everything will start.
I made a giant layout,
step by step layout, so that each step
shows a little compoXAnent of the big thing.
And then after we have XAeverything built,
we will put it together into--
Into the cookie dunk.
We could have step five all set up here.
But what we need is we need height, all right?
For the-- So what we can do is we can use these woos
XA
and then build it up higher.
Meanwhile, Jordan's givp on his complexXA machine
XAand come up wh something easie.
OkXAay, so we're keeping the saA thing at the top, okay?
And it's just a simpler five-steXAp thing. Okay?
Yes.
And with a new pl,
XA
the orange team kics it into high gear.
This will swing properly, right?
Okay.
So I'm gXAoing to use pie plate, and then use them as steps.
So as the marble lands in one of them,
it's going to be slante,
A
And then it's going XAto go to the next pie plate
and keep going neXAxt, like stairs.
See?
They're all in the same spot.
O.
Destiny's been a realXAly great help
by giving me new ideas and helping me try nXAew stuff.
Now we have to thinkXA of a way
to attach the pie plates to the--
Just glue XAit on.
Here, I'll hold it.
Now they can start one steps for their XAcookie dunk.
here and it hits the .
And then tXAhis ball is going to hit
XA
another marble that's going to roll on the other side.
With one step together and working fin,
Jordan works with Emily on the next ste.
Just try it right n.
See, if-- XAYou have toe sure that XAit kind of work.
We're an hour and a half into the competition.
And with three steps almost finished,
XA
the purple team is in the lead.
The XAorange team only has e step on their cookie dunker,
but they have good idea, and are working hard.
Can the purple team hang on to its lead?
DESTINY: XASo right now I'm makingXA part five.
So the basket's going to be right here.
XA
So when this drops and there's no marble inXA ,
the coXAokie goes down to the XAmilk.
Perfect.
So this is hXAow it will go.
XALike this.
And then see how it could tip?
Yep.
So there is step five.
Okay, what's happenXAing so far in it?
Where's the starting?
The.
That's where your part comes in. See?
Oh, the wonder.
Uh-oh, to make this step work,
Jordan needs to line XA the ramp up with the .
XA
Nope.
And on the other side, the purple team works on step fouA
XAThe biggest challenge for XAus right now
is getting the marble from the tin can to XAthe birdi.
ShXAould we use t?
We could just cut this.
No, there's just something at the top
that's blocking.
Emily, Emily, start building your marble airplane.
XA
Okay.
Yes, there we.
So it works?
Yeah, this pXt works now.
The orange team has cracked step three.
That was perf.
I feel like a XAscientist.
So with the lt
Joseph works on step .
I found soXAme sticky notepads.
YeXAs.
That's awesom.
XA
is tXAoo low to hold all the steps.
Okay, you guys, I have tXAod of raise the whole tXAhing .
All XAright.
Pull it up.
Okay.
We're freaking ou.
WellXA, I'm freaking .
There'XAs only a half hour left in XAthe Invent Off,
and the orange team is in trouble.
XA
and onlyXA have half the steps they neeXAd
on their cookie dunker.
The purpXAle team is rog it and is almost done.
Can the orange team finish in time?
Okay, so there's 30 mXAinutes left.
And I think you guys should continue workiXAng on decoratin.
And then step five is almost done.
This is the key componet of our whole machine.
And if this doesn't wor, nothing woXArks.
(Marble raXAttling)
Well, the problem right now is that--
It's the bucket.
And with time running o,
XA there's big troubleA for the purple team.
The machine doesn'XAt l,
so the marble doesnt land in the bucket.
Very bad.
Feeling the time cr,
XAJordan works on ther
that will be the last sp of his team's machine.
Uh-oh.
JORDAN: Whoa.
So we only have 10XA minutes let to figure ouXAt this proble.
Y.
Now we have to match this weXAight on the other side.
Play dough.
BEA: So that's approximately enough.
Yeah, there we go.
No, almos.
Okay, this is hugeXA because we have not gXAot the last part
to get the marble
to gXAet the cookie to go into the milk.
So we're still trying to figure that out.
Is it going?
Yay!
A
Now decorate, decorate!
XAIt's a mad dash to the .
Is that XAgoing to stay?
Oh, it should go on top of that board there.
This is still kind of funny.
(Emily Laughing)
It's down to the wire,
and there's another problm for the purple team.
Now their marbles are getg stuck in the machine.A
That one got stuck.
Reall?
Yeah, it's missing all of them.
See, this is the problem.
There'XAs always one thing that will make it-
YeahXA.
There's always one thing
that will make it like nXAot work.
(Buzzer soXAunding)
Time's up.
Good job!
Oh, I'm pretty nervous,
but my team did very well.
Good jXAob.
JORDAN: I feel kind of nervous,
beXAcause I really despise losiXAng.
I just don't like it at allXA.
So Jordan and Joseph hae some mixed feelings,
but itXA's anybody's game.
And now let's judge these inventions.
The judge for today's challenge is a ***
when it comes to machin.
My namXAe is Prachy, and I'm a mechanical engine.
A mechanical engineer is someone
who designs and buXAilds machines.
Hi, teams, my name XAis Prachy.
And I'm going to be your judge today.
Orange team, please reveal your inventio.
Purple team, please revXAeal your invent.
Orange team, what's your invention called?
Our invention is called the Alligator Dunker.
Can you explain to me how itXA works?
So step one is this tube tht rolls down into this tunnel.
And step two is the alternation of directio.
Step three is when the ball hits this marble.
And step four is when the marble rolls down and hits this pa.
Step fivXAe is the lever, which dunkXAs the cookie.
Why did you choose to use the ball?
We felt that the ball Xs easiest to maintain its swi,
instead of, say, using a weight.
Can you demonstrate it to me?
♪♪♪♪♪♪
That's awesom.
Thank you,XA orange t.
Purple team, what's your invention calle?
Our invention is called the Cookie Creature.
And how does it work?XA
Step one, we have the noo,
wherXAe the mare would go throuXh
and then land in this white container.
And like a waterf,
it will bring itXn to the third steX,
which is this pip,
where the marble would fall throh
and then roll dn into this catch.
And through this catche, it will fall down
thXArough the red pipe and land into step five,
which is the green bucket.
It will tip the lever,
which would lower the cookie iXAnto the m.
Okay, can you guys XAshow it to me?
♪♪♪♪♪♪
That's aXAwesome.
Thank you, purple team.
Both teaXAms have done a great job,
and I am really, really impres.
So I need a XAminute to dece who will be the winner.
The orange team's fantastic machine really impressed me,
because they used a hanging ball in the a,
and they took a huge risk with that.
XAWe didn't know what was going to happen at all.
The purpXAle team's fantastic machine
really impressed me als,
becaXAuse each step was very creative.
Our teams are psyched.
Who will win the Genius Cup?
Prachy is back wiXAth her decision.
Orange team, what I likd about your invention
was the great risk you tok with the hanging ball.
You never know wXAhat's goig to happen with that bal.
What I would
is more variety of materi.
Team purple, what I lovXAed about your dn
was the flow of the marA throughout,
but what I would have liked to have seXAen
was more of a risk,
where we dXAon't know
what's going to happen next,
like the otherXA team.
Now it's time for my decisi.
And the winnXAer is...
team purple.
Yes!
Yes!
I chose the purple teaXAm becaue they had a lot of steps,
and each step was
Congratulations.
Thank y.
XA
The purpXAle team did have a more relXAiable design.
you know,
building everything from scrXAatch
and then also getting rewarded for it.
It just feels fantastic.
Way to go, purple team.
Both teams should be very happy
with their dunktastic machines.
I think I want a snack.
It just goes to show great things happen
when you Think Big.
