The episode begins with host Jeff Foxworthy introducing the contestants and the rules of the game. Each contestant is asked a series of questions, beginning with first-grade level trivia and increasing in difficulty up to fifth-grade level.

The stakes are high as contestants have the opportunity to earn up to $1 million by successfully answering all ten questions. However, if a contestant answers a question incorrectly, they will be "saved" by one of the fifth-grade students who has the opportunity to answer the question correctly and save the contestant from elimination.

As the episode progresses, tension builds as contestants are stumped by difficult questions and forced to rely on the expertise of the fifth-graders. The fifth-graders prove to be formidable opponents, answering questions with ease and often outsmarting the adult contestants.

As the final question approaches, the remaining contestants face the ultimate challenge: a fifth-grade level science question. The pressure is high as the contestants weigh their options and decide whether to gamble and go for the million-dollar prize or play it safe and walk away with their current winnings.

In the end, some contestants succeed in winning big while others fall short, proving that the knowledge of fifth-graders is not to be underestimated. The episode concludes with Jeff Foxworthy bidding farewell to the contestants and congratulating the fifth-graders on their impressive performance.
