What "Punkd" 5-th episode about
Segment #1: A.J. sets up his wife, Jamie-Lynn Discala, in a restaurant. The friendly waitress, Dana, asks for a tip to cover the expense of things accidentally left out of the check. The manager, Chris, hears of this "tip-begging" and fires her on the spot, leaving the poor woman without any job to support her children. Jamie-Lynn feels guilty about it this and asks that the manager reconsider. After some dialogue between A.J., the manager and Jamie-Lynn, they leave the restaurant, when the bomb was dropped that it was all a sham.
Segment #2: Andy Roddick has to get to The Tonight Show and the driver, Chris, decides to take a shortcut. They hit a roadblock that is set up because of the problem of mudslides (which has actually been a real problem due to the serious weather conditions this winter). They get into a real problem when they cannot go further but they cannot go back. The driver gets "smart" and tries to drive through anyway. The car is sprayed with water coming from no-one-knows-where, and the mud just makes the road impassable and the car is stuck. When the
police arrive, an argument breaks out and suddenly Andy is blamed for the whole thing. The police make him sit there in this no-pass zone, intending to keep him there until 4pm. Finally the Punk'd camera crew arrive to let him off the hook.
Segment #3: Omarion sets up Marques Huston. Omarion brings his girlfriend to meet Marques, but also to break up with her. She reveals to Marques that she's pregnant. Omarion insists that there's no baby and she's making it up. After a while, her ex-boyfriend shows up and he looks angry. He wants to know whose baby it is. He insists that heads are gonna roll, but Marques keeps it pretty cool. Finally the Punk'd crew shows up to slow the roll.
