For weeks, the mystery has been building.
‐ Who's that voice? ‐ I'm dying to know.
The world's been speculating.
Tupac is Thingamajig. #HesAlive.
You might think you know.
Man, I'm on a roll with my guesses. You're welcome, guys.

Who are you? ‐ ...do you really?

Whoo!
This is the show that keeps the whole world guessing,
singing, and using terrible puns.
We are halfway through the competition,
and the talent level of our singers is making it way too hard to call.
Big question around here is who will win this whole thing
and earn the right to wear the Golden Mask, right?
Now I want to know.
All right, ladies and gentlemen,
tonight we have a very special guest on our panel
who is a gifted actor, comedian, writer, host,
and a personal friend of mine.
My brother, y'all make some noise
for the one and only Anthony Anderson.
‐ Yay! ‐ Wow!
Ho. Ho, ho.
Now, Anthony, we're thrilled to have you here with us.
Now how in the hell did we get you here?
I was trying to be a masked singer on the show,
but I'm tone deaf, so they asked me to judge.
Okay, let's get right to our first secret superstar tonight.
It's time to get a better spidey‐sense of a singer
who's the talk of the web, the Black Widow.
Last round I totally threw y'all off
with a genre you didn't expect.
♪ I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights ♪
You gave me the chills. Honestly, you brought the house down.
Yes.
This costume feels like home.
I can be myself, and I don't have to pretend anymore.
Then again, I can make myself at home
in pretty much any nook or cranny.
So here are my tips on how to jazz up
any new space, no matter how dirty!
‐ Dirty! ‐ Christina Aguilera.
Whether it's a cozy den in Memphis
or a bungalow in Bel Air.
Okay, she has a home in Memphis, home in Bel Air.
Make sure to fill your space
with things that spark joy,
and always find time to entertain your guests.
‐ "Misdemeanor." ‐ Did that say "Scrubs"?
‐ Missy, "Misdemeanor,"
or T‐Boz from TLC.
You still hanging with me?
Good, because tonight this hot homemaker
is gonna keep you on your toes,
and not even a broken arm can stop me.
Who that? Missy Elliott? Is that Missy?
‐ Missy's from Virginia, not Memphis. ‐ Yes.

Yes! She got that samurai squat!
Black Widow! Black Widow!
Setting it off! Hitting the notes.
Ken, please tell our Black Widow
about her performance.
Your voice, Black Widow,
it makes people stand up
the more you crouch down.
You crouch better than all the contestants
on either season.
That's how good your crouch game is, girl.
- ‐ Look at that. - Look at that!
‐ She got that mean lean. ‐ You deliver consistently good performances
in, like, different genres, different styles.
Amazing job. Love it.
Robin? ‐ I loved the song choice
and I loved your performance.
I was a little thrown off by the injured backup dancers.
Remember, last time she broke her arm.
She didn't want to effect her performance,
so this week, the dancers joined her.
So she got everybody from the emergency room,
‐ brought 'em with you. I get it. I get it. ‐ Exactly.
What clues are you picking up on?
I'm still sticking with some of the clues from early on.
Child actor who has an edgier side.
And there was something in the package
referencing "Hangin' With Mr. Cooper," I noticed.
So I'm still going with Raven‐Symoné.
‐ I think that she's multi‐talented. ‐ Good guess.
‐ ‐ The audience went ""
‐ Wait a minute. ‐ Raven‐Symoné, that's‐‐ Raven's my guess.
- I agree. - Right?
I think you guys are all wrong.
Now, I think based on the performance and the clues,
sounds like she was‐‐ maybe has a home in Bel Air and in Memphis.
And this may be‐‐ maybe a country star,
and it could be someone like Miranda Lambert.
- Okay. - Great voice.
I don't hate that answer. ‐ Okay, well tonight
we're asking each of our masked singers to bring something
from their home to show us who they really are.
‐ Whoo! Whoo! ‐ So it's time to reveal the revealing item.
Yeah, let's do it.
Thank you, sir. You guys ready for this?
- ‐ Yes, Nick. - My God.
I'm so excited!
What is it? ‐ Whipped cream and crackers?
Whipped cream and crackers? That's different.
What? That's the clue?
‐ My gosh. ‐ Are you Cardi B?
I've spun webs around these tasty treats.
You spun webs around these tasty treats?
I think it's‐‐ it's a prop.
‐ Maybe an actor? ‐ Anthony, you've heard it all.
Director's footage, started young, an actor.
I have no idea. Um...
Welcome to "The Masked Singer" panel.
Who's in "Charlie's Angel" that started young? What's her name?
‐ Drew Barrymore? ‐ Drew Barrymore.
Very good guess.
Wow. ‐ This is both helpful and confusing, by the way.
‐ Yeah. ‐ One thing that isn't confusing
was that was an amazing performance from the Black Widow.
Our panel thought one of these celebrities
might be under the Black Widow mask.
Who do you think it is?
I want to win this so bad
that I didn't quit even after my injury.
I said I'm getting on stage
and I'm leaving it all out there no matter what.
Coming up... ‐ Yeah!
I once had the chance
to choose life or death.
‐ And later... ‐ Take it off!
...the most shocking unmasking yet.
‐ Take it off! ‐
‐ Who's up next? ‐ Thingamajig.
Anthony, we think it's Usher.
- He's, like, 6'10". - It's two of Ushers.
It's Sisqó standing on top of Usher, I think.
‐ Sisqó standing on top of Usher. ‐ My God. So good.

‐ Whoo! ‐ Thingamajig did his thinga‐amathing.
Do you know who that is, Anthony? Come on, help us out.
I have no idea who that is.
This is my favorite one. This is my favorite one.
Wow. Miss Scherzinger, now he dedicated this song to you.
He said, "Don't leave me."
I said, "I'm not going anywhere."
‐ I'm right here. ‐ Wow. Wow.
I'm in love with your voice.
You have so much, just, effortless swag on stage,
and you're just a soulful crooner.
Your tone is just so beautiful. Thank you so much.
Yeah.
‐ Aww. ‐ I gotta say, Thingamajig,
I loved your confidence this week.
‐ Yeah. ‐ You're getting really comfortable on stage.
And your voice is unbelievable.
Robin, were you picking up on any clues
from the package, from the performance?
Who could this possibly be?
I'm trying to look at the height comparison.
Montell Jordan is definitely becoming my first guess
as I'm hearing the tone of his voice when he's singing.
Wait. I was gonna say that name right there.
‐ This is how we‐‐ exactly. ‐ Yeah, and he's not dancing too much.
You know, he's mostly just kind of, you know, gangster swag.
He can dance though. He can dance.
- There we go. See? - I love it, I love it.
‐ He's got swag. ‐ I love this combo. It's like Thingamajig and son.
I love it. It's so great.
The clues, of course, doesn't run with the bulls
really kind of sticks with me being from Chicago,
so it makes me go basketball player
with that body of yours.
What about, um, the retired NBA‐‐
Tony Parker, is that his name?
‐ Tony's‐‐ ‐ Yeah, he's two inches shorter than Nick.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- ‐ Whatever. - I don't know.
I was thinking based off of the clues
with the gummi worms, Dennis Rodman.
His nickname was Worm, I believe.
‐ Dennis can't sing though. ‐ Then he said‐‐
We don't know. It could be his hidden talent.
And then last week his clue for us
was his darkest moment was rehab.
‐ ‐‐ So I'm thinking Dennis Rodman.
Well, you know, there's a club in Vegas called Rehab,
and it's dark inside there.
Could be up in there, too.
I think just based on the clues,
and this is a stretch, so bear with me.
You know, he likes to hang out with his crew.
There are five people there.
And he's the tallest member of that crew.
I mean, I'm a big New Edition fan, like, growing up.
It could be‐‐ Nick, wait.
It could be, you know,
it's not Bobby, Ricky, or Mike,
but Ron DeVoe is the tallest guy of Bell Biv DeVoe.
That was my favorite group growing up.
You are Ronnie DeVoe of Bell Biv DeVoe.
Welcome to "The Masked Singer." BBD!
He's Ron!
All right, we asked all our singers
to show us something
that reflects who the really are.
So, men in black! Security!
All right, here comes the clue.
Reveal the revealing item.
It's gonna be a can of poison.
‐ P‐p‐p‐p‐poison. ‐ P‐p‐poison.
‐ You ready? ‐ What is this gonna be?
"American Sign Language Dictionary."
‐ Love it. He can sign. ‐ Hi!
That's tough. ‐ Well, this book taught me
to communicate with others,
which is the most important thingamajig.
‐ ‐ That's my husband, guys. That's my husband right there.
‐ Thank you. ‐ Why and how would a book on sign language...
‐ Yeah. ‐ ...help us figure out who this man is?
This show doesn't make sense at all.
I mean, the only thing I can say out of a clue from that
is I went to Catholic School and we had to learn sign language.
So I don't know if we had the same school district maybe?
I learned different things in Catholic school than you did.
I don't even need to know who he is. I love him already.
Ladies and gentlemen,
one more time for the Thingamajig.
Whoo!
The panel thought one of these celebrities
might be Thingamajig. Who do you think it is?
I'm one of Nicole's biggest fans.
You know, I'm just glad that she likes me.
So, see where it goes. Thingamajig, you already know.
‐ That's my husband. ‐ You can have a baby Thingamajig, Nicole.
Baby Thingamajig!
I can marry them. I'm ordained.

I hate lying to my mom.
Welcome back to everybody's favorite who‐sungit mystery.
We don't have a moment to waste,
so let's get back to our guessing game.
She's a beautiful creature who's taken flight each week,
so let's search high and low
for any new clues about the Butterfly.

there was an accident and I suffered an electric shock
that nearly knocked me out.

All my insecurities about performing resurfaced.
♪ Whoa ♪
But I couldn't let that setback stand in my way.
‐ ♪ Living on a prayer ♪ ‐ We are happy that you are alive.
Becoming the Butterfly has reignited a love I've had
since I was seven years old.
I found others modeled just like me
and was welcomed to the choir's joyful noise.
‐ Joyful noise. ‐ Okay, that's church. That's religious.
It made me feel safe even in the hardest times.
‐ Car salesman of the year. ‐ She sold cars?
This bleeding love has given me the highest of highs,
but sadly led to the lowest of lows.
As the Butterfly, I am taking charge
and reclaiming what I thought I'd lost.
Because this is what I was meant to do.

The Butterfly has definitely blossomed this week.
Our guest panelist, Mr. Anthony Anderson.
I wrote three words down.
Soulful, textured, and honest.
Whoo. ‐ That's what I felt
when I saw you perform on the stage tonight,
- ‐ and that's all I want to say. - Yes.
Miss Scherzinger, are you picking up on any clues?
Okay, so you have such a unique texture to your tone.
‐ ‐ I'm definitely getting maybe pop group vibes.
Someone from, like, Destiny's Child.
I think I know who it is off of that voice.
‐ Who? ‐ Who? Say it.
- ‐ Michelle Williams. - Yes.
‐ Yeah. ‐ Michelle Williams?
‐ Yes. ‐ I think so, too, based off that voice.
What's that got to do with London?
Well, you know, the clues from last time,
the London thing confused me, she felt alone,
and has a body like that,
and those thighs that I'm so jealous of.
Like, I've seen those thighs. I've heard that voice.
I agree, I think it's Michelle Williams.
I disagree. I'm still sticking
with some of the clues from early on.
Every week we've seen clues about London,
so that's why I've been going with Leona Lewis.
Okay. Robin got one.
I mean, I'm sure she's won a Brit award.
‐ Yeah. ‐ Nick: All right, well, we're gonna get one more clue
from the Butterfly.
Bring out the revealing item!
Whoo!
Do you guys really think that thing helps?

She once had the chance to choose life or death?
Wow. ‐ Okay.
Um, you guys are gonna hate my guess, and it's, um...
‐ Yes! ‐ Look, this is a Norah Jones song.
I love Norah Jones. What if, all right,
we've never done this on the show.
What if it was actually Norah Jones
singing a different version of a Norah Jones song?
Just what if? Just‐‐ I just want to blow your mind grapes.
Norah Jones is your height.
She's not 6'5"!
And let me tell you, it could happen.
You could have a singer of a song,
disguise yourself as a butterfly,
and then guest star on "CSI" or whatever,
and then she came here and sang her own song.
Drop the mic. You're welcome.
Great job, Dr. Ken.
I'm just clapping because it's over.
Ladies and gentlemen, one more time,
let's give it up for the illustrious Butterfly.
Love you, Norah! Good job singing your own song.

What exactly is this show about?
I'm still trying to figure that out.
What did I agree to do?
Dr. Ken, are you picking up on any clues?
Okay, all right, I know exactly who this is, and I'll tell you why.
‐ No. ‐ Here it goes.
I've given this a lot of thought.
‐ Here he goes. ‐ Okay, I have some clues, guys.
New Edition, all right?
And remember, I possibly think the Thingamajig
is someone from Bell Biv DeVoe‐‐ Ronnie DeVoe.
I think they wanted to carpool to "The Masked Singer."
Hold on. Hear me out. Hear me out, man.
‐ Stay with me. ‐ Yeah, we're with you, Ken.
This is clearly Bobby Brown.
Stay with me. Stop laughing.
I thought you were fantastic, Bobby.
Salute. Salute.
Anthony, are you picking up on any clues?
This person in this costume has embodied this costume,
so all I see is this character here right now.
Yeah. Yeah, that's what threw me.
Yeah, that's all I see right now.
Yeah, you gotta get through the Leopard and the dress
to get to the Bobby Brown, you know what I mean?
It's just like‐‐ gotta be like me and smart.
‐ Okay, okay. ‐ "To get to the Bobby Brown."
I'm at a loss. ‐ Nicole, you're pretty good with these things.
‐ What were you picking up on? ‐ I saw "Pose,"
and they're so theatrical,
and I'm a huge fan of this person,
so I'm still thinking Billy Porter.
- ‐ Me, too. - Yeah, yeah.
- Yep. Me, too. - Yeah.
I'm gonna go with Billy Porter. I'll go with the Billy Porter.
Leopard, please reveal the revealing item.
‐ Saucer of milk. ‐ A saucer of milk.
You guys ready? ‐ We're ready.
- Cameras. - Cameras. Photography.
Bobby Brown likes to take pictures, I mean, you know what I mean?
It's just like‐‐ it all makes sense.
Well, darlings,
you know, my life has been so tiresome.
I spend most of it in front of the lens.
But I much prefer being behind the lens.
Maybe it's the director Tyler Perry because he likes to be behind the cameras.
- Yep. - Right?
Ooh, that's good.
Why does the Leopard sound like Eartha Kitt from "Boomerang"?
Yes! Yes!
‐ "Marcus, darling." ‐ "Marcus, darling."
My God! It does sound like Eartha Kitt!
Well, we know he was amazing in front of the lens here tonight.
Ladies and gentlemen, the Leopard.
Our panel thought one of these celebrities

Who do you think it is?
The performance was simply exquisite, darling.
I loved every minute of it.
It made me feel like I was a teenager all over again.
Coming up... ‐
I'm just gonna take the "O" off the Flamingo
and say you flaming, because that's how hot you are.
...and a reveal that will leave you speechless.
- ‐ This is hard, man. - Show us who you are.
Welcome back to "The Masked Singer,"
where the identities are fake, but the competition
could not get more real.
And now, let's take a close look
at the bird clue droppings
about our final singer tonight.
It's the Flamingo.
After my last performance,
I realized that being the Flamingo
is one of the greatest opportunities of my life.
♪ So I gotta cut loose ♪
‐ ♪ Footloose ♪ ‐ I mean, that voice.
I was smiling so big, I think you broke my Botox.
Mira, the real truth is my story's not all fantasy.
‐ "Mira." ‐ Spanish?
See, years ago, I started hating the sound of my own voice,
and being on stage became one of my biggest fears.
‐ Aww, man. ‐ Insecure.
But now as the Flamingo,
when I hear I've done a good job,
I'm relearning how to say thank you,
and I'm reminded that I can do it all.
I've danced, sung, and acted my way to the top.
Triple threat.
So tonight it's going to just be me and my voice,
and I'm finally okay with that.
Thank you for helping me see
that this bird is anything but basic.

Robin, were you picking up on anything?
Yes, some of the clues that we picked up on earlier
were that she came to Hollywood
and was discovered by a wizard.
That could be Simon Cowell of "American Idol."
‐ Yeah? Yeah. ‐ The performing, the moves, the voice,
and the big finish the way‐‐ that's Fantasia to me.
In my opinion, I think that's Fantasia.
I will agree with Robin.
It seemed as if she was trying to masquerade her voice
because she sings‐‐
her voice is very distinctive. It is Fantasia.
I think it's a pretty good guess, but from the clues
that I got your first time,
lifestyle brand, fashion, beauty advice.
This week, the film references that you gave
made me believe that you're an actress and a singer.
So I'm still gonna stick with Adrienne Bailon.
I like that.
All right, our Flamingo wants you to know
‐ a little bit about herself. ‐ ‐
So, security, bring out the revealing item.
Bring it.
All right, let's see.
You guys ready? Flamingo, are you ready?
- Ooh. - Whoa, what is that?
Is that a NAACP Image award?
‐ That you hosted. ‐ Yes.
I was tickled pink when I received this award.
Tickled pink when she received‐‐ ‐ Tickled pink.
‐ I know. I know who she is. ‐ She is P! nk.
‐ She's P! nk. Yeah. ‐ She's P! nk.
The singer, P! nk. She's P! nk.
- ‐ It could be. - Yeah.
Well, we know that the Flamingo
is a NAACP award‐winner
and possibly a "Masked Singer" winner with that performance.
Ladies and gentlemen, give it up. Flamingo!
Our panel thought one of these celebrities
might be under the Flamingo mask.
Who do you think it is?
God, we gotta vote.
I forgot it's this time. This competition's hard.
There's so many good ones today.
I mean, musically this is my favorite episode maybe ever. I mean, musically.
- ‐ Yeah, me, too. - Yeah, I agree.
Now the time has come for our live audience and our panel
to vote for their favorite performer tonight.
Wow, this is hard, man.
The singer with the least amount of votes
will unmask and head home.
The others will sing another day.
And the singer with the least votes tonight...
‐ I'm scared. ‐ ...is...
I don't want to know.
...going to be revealed right after this.
‐ You ain't right! ‐ I do that all the time.
‐ You ain't right! ‐ I do it all the time!
You ain't right. ‐ ♪ Who is that? ♪
And the singer with the least votes tonight...
‐ I'm scared. ‐ ...is...
I don't want to know.
- ‐ The Black Widow. - ‐
So sad.
Go ahead, say your good‐byes to the Black Widow.
‐ That hurt. ‐ Black Widow,
come on down over here.
‐ You were amazing. ‐ Whoo!
You know I'm a fan. Now this is what I have to say.
I'm definitely sorry that you're leaving us,
but we're excited to see who you really are, right?
‐ Yes! ‐ Yes!
But first, gang, we need your final guesses.
I'm gonna start with you, Nicole.
Okay, we started out with a squeaky clean image.
So somebody from Disney, possibly a child actor.
Someone who didn't want to have to pretend anymore,
which I took to be someone from the LGBTQ community.
But the giveaway for me
was the dropping it low and the samurai squats.
'Cause when she be doing her dance‐offs and stuff on TV,
the first thing she does is she gets real low.
That's why I think it's Raven‐Symoné.
I agree with you, Nicole.
From day one, there was a lot of clues.
Famous for years, powerful empires.
Her show "That's So Raven"
was the most successful show at the time.
‐ I actually wrote a song for her. ‐ Yeah, right.
I did. I wrote a song on one of her albums,
so I'm pretty familiar with her voice.
I'm gonna stick with Raven‐Symoné.
If it is the person you say it is,
I actually wrote her as my sister into my sitcom "Black‐ish,"
‐ so you're a‐‐ ‐!
If this is Raven‐Symoné, I used to babysit her!
I don't think it's her though,
because we've never talked about her
being from Memphis or owning a home in Memphis.
‐ Interesting. ‐ You know, I'm gonna stick with my first here,
because I texted Raven while she was up there singing,
and Raven was like, "Yo, what up?"
So I know it ain't Raven.
There you go. That's why you're the expert.
So I'm gonna stick with Drew Barrymore.
- Good. - Jenny?
The film references that you gave made me believe
that you're also an actress and a singer.
So I backed up and thought, "Okay, TV, singer, 'Glee.'"
So I'm gonna stick with Amber Riley.
Going off the clue package of having a home in Memphis,
can easily sing any genre,
I see no reason to change my guess,
Miranda Lambert.
Okay, panel, you've made your final guesses.
Now let's see if any of you are right.
Black Widow, show us who you are.
‐ ♪ Who are you? ♪ ‐ Take it off!
‐ ♪ Who, who, who, who ♪ ‐ Take it off! Take it off!
‐ She really needs help. ‐ Help her out!
- ‐ Help her out! - Take it off!
‐ Who is it? ‐ I have no idea!
Why am I even asking you?
‐ ♪ Who, who, who, who ♪ ‐ 'Cause I'm out of my mind.
‐ ♪ Who ♪ ‐ ♪ I really want to know ♪
♪ I really want to know ♪
‐ ♪ Who ♪ ‐ Who are you?
♪ Tell me, who are you, you, you ♪
♪ Are you? ♪
My God!
It is Raven‐Symoné!
Yeah! Yeah! ‐ My God, Robin!
‐ You got it. You got it. ‐ Nice job, Robin.
‐ No! You guys! ‐
Wow! Actress, singer, television star,
Broadway star, television host.
So many things.
Wow, you had me fooled for real, for real.
What made you do this show as the Black Widow?
I've been in the music industry‐‐ in the industry
for a really long time, and I said,
"My goodness, it would be awesome
if I don't have to see anybody, they can't see me.
I can be the person I am in the mirror
and not have to put on this all the time."
‐ Aww. ‐
And you guys called me a professional singer.
I peed my pants. So thank you very much.
Aww. Right after your first performance,
‐ you injured yourself. ‐ I got to only really do one performance.
You know, just don't ride a hoverboard at 33.
But you still gave us a great, amazing perf‐‐ yeah!
My gosh! Like, exactly!
Yes! A samurai squat.
I texted to see if it was you.
You could have hit me back and be like,
"Yeah, Ant, vote for me."
No, but I am so proud of you.
‐ Thanks, brother. ‐ You know I'm a fan, and I love you.
- ‐ She's a star. She's a star. - And one more time,
the artist formerly known as the Black Widow.
Ladies and gentlemen, Raven‐Symoné!
♪ I can feel something inside me say ♪
♪ I really don't think you're ♪

Get it! Get it! Get it!
