Other segments of the episode include a round of "Gimme a Hand", in which contestants have to guess the difficulty level of a stunt involving a unicyclist juggling knives while perched on top of a stack of chairs. Additionally, there's another installment of "You're My Best Friend", in which contestants have to guess what a person's friend did to betray them in a series of mildly awful scenarios – ranging from revealing a secret to selling a beloved item for a few bucks.
