[English]

...

tWitch, now your breath has been caught, I want to show you--

this is what he did this week.

Can I share?

Yes.

Well, I'm going to do it anyway.

[LAUGHTER]

We set up hidden cameras at a local grocery store,

and we sent tWitch out there to see

if he could get random strangers to help him.

So if they offered to help him, he

had a little reward for them.

It's a new segment we're calling Karma's a tWitch.

[LAUGHTER]

[TWITCH PANTING]

...

Excuse me.

Sorry.

Could you help me out, please?

I kind of-- I grabbed a little bit too much.

I'm sorry.

OK.

Oh, sorry.

You know what?

Would you mind grabbing my keys out of my jacket pocket--

this jacket pocket right here.

Thank you.

Oh, I see.

Thank you so much.

Maybe it would be better if you'd take two trips.

I know.

I thought I grabbed--

I grabbed too much.

Oh my.

Oh no.

Oh my god.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh god.

I know.

I tried to do too much.

Oh.

It's OK.

Yeah.

Oh.

Oh my-- oh god.

Does that one have a hole in it?

I think it does.

It must have a hole in it.

Do you need help?

Thank you.

I saw when you lost all those--

Thank you.

I'm so sorry that happened to you.

Thank you.

No, thank you.

It's OK.

I just-- I tell you who's going to be upset is my wife.

[LAUGHS]

Oh.

Tell your wife two lovely women helped you.

I will do that.

Thank you very much.

Thank you.

Oh, there you go.

You know what?

Before you go, I just want to let y'all know that

you're on a hidden camera right now.

For your acts of kindness, I would like to offer

y'all a $1,000 prize.

No.

This is actually for both of y'all.

And here's the camera right here.

Oh my god.

[LAUGHS]

Oh, thank you.

Thank you, absolutely.

Thank you so much.

See, I thought you were tWitch from Ellen's show.

I've heard that.

I've heard that before.

[APPLAUSE]

You look like that guy.

I look like tWitch from The Ellen Show.

You look like that guy from The Ellen Show.
