Looking a gift horse in the mouth! The Newsroom alum John Gallagher Jr. joins his sister on the Thursday, February 25, episode of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, as seen in a clip from the episode.
The footage shows Joni struggling with a question about Quentin Tarantino‘s films, and so she uses a lifeline by turning to her actor brother, who was watching from the audience.
“Reservoir Dogs was [a movie] that I probably saw way before I should have, and so I do know this one,” John, 31, says after joining his big sister on stage with host Chris Harrison.
The Broadway veteran, who won a Tony Award for Spring Awakening, tells his sibling that the answer is Django Unchained, but she isn’t ready to take his suggestion on faith just yet.
“Wait, are you definitely sure?” Joni asks. “I mean, no pressure, but this is our entire relationship on the line.”
Watch the video above to see if she goes with her brother’s pick.
Who Wants to Be a Millionaire airs in syndication on weekdays.
