Ep 11. Episode 211

Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader season 2 episode 11, titled Episode 211, features a group of adult contestants who have the chance to test their knowledge against a panel of fifth-grade students. The show is hosted by actor John Cena, who guides the contestants through a series of questions that cover a range of subjects including science, mathematics, history, and language arts.

The episode begins with the introduction of the adult contestants, who are each given a brief moment to share some details about themselves and their background. From there, the contestants are introduced to the fifth-grade students who will be assisting them throughout the show. Each student is responsible for selecting a particular category of question that will be asked of the contestants.

The first round of questions is relatively easy, with each contestant receiving questions that are generally considered to be at a fifth-grade level. For example, one contestant is asked to identify the seven continents of the world, while another is asked to perform basic multiplication. As the round progresses, the questions become slightly more difficult, and it becomes clear that not all of the contestants are feeling confident in their abilities.

In the second round, the difficulty level is ratcheted up a notch, with the questions becoming much more challenging. One contestant is asked to identify the common name for the condition known as hyperopia, while another is asked to recall the author of The Canterbury Tales. As the round progresses, the contestants struggle to keep up with the increasingly complex questions, and it becomes clear that some of them are beginning to panic.

In the third and final round, the contestants are asked to answer a series of questions that are considered to be at an eighth-grade level. This round proves to be particularly difficult, with contestants struggling to answer questions related to algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. Despite their best efforts, some of the contestants are unable to answer the questions correctly, leaving them eliminated from the competition.

In the end, only one contestant emerges as the winner of the game, having successfully answered the most questions correctly. The episode ends with a recap of the most interesting and challenging questions that were asked throughout the game, leaving viewers with a newfound appreciation for the knowledge and intelligence of fifth-grade students.
