Laverne Cox has swept the board. Laverne Cox impresses on NBC’s Password.
In an exclusive clip from E! News, the Orange Is the New Black alum leaves host Keke Palmer, recurring player Jimmy Fallon, and contestant Saigim visibly stunned with her perfect bonus round performance.
Laverne and Saigim had 30 seconds to convey and guess 10 passwords from “M” to “V” in the alphabet. Each correct answer earned Saigim $1,000, with a perfect score bumping her prize to $25,000.
The first eight passwords were easy for the duo, with Laverne noting their height difference as “iconic.” After skipping the ninth password, they secured the tenth with just one second left on the clock. Laverne’s correct answer to “ukulele” earned Saigim the ultimate prize.
An ecstatic Saigim and impressed Keke celebrated with the seemingly shocked Laverne, while Jimmy couldn’t contain his enthusiasm for her big moment.
Password airs on NBC Tuesdays at 10/9c, following The Weakest Link, and is available to stream on Peacock the following day.
