I always had a real problem with this show, but I watched it every sunday anyway because it came on right after america’s funniest home videos and we didn’t have cable so there was nothing else to watch anyway. my problem initially began as a selfish one - I was upset that all of these families were getting fancy new houses and cars and shit just because someone’s dad was a firefighter...

The Game Called TIG.
ELIJAH: All those days of playing Cup...
DOM: Oooh yes, Cup!
SEAN: Cup was a fantastic game.
BILLY: Cup, by the way, is where you take a paper cup ---
SEAN: Dixie cup.
BILLY: A... Dixie cup, if you're American...
DOM: Or a paper cup, if you speak English.
BILLY: And you keep it up by passing it to each other. It was quite boring, but if you're waiting for a helicopter for four days, it's the main way that you pass the day.
DOM: I would just like to say that it's an original Dominic Monaghan game, available online at my website, and you can use different cups, but if you want, you can log on to my website and get an official Cup cup.
BILLY: Dominic Monaghan's Crazy Games dot com
DOM: And another game called Nudge, Billy's a huge fan of that. So, if anyone wants to get involved with game-making...
ELIJAH: Speaking of game-making, what was the name of the fake game that y'all tried to get me into?
BILLY, DOM, SEAN: Oh, Tig! Tag? Tig! Tig! *laughter*
ELIJAH: Oh my God...
BILLY: Tig was when we were filming Weathertop, and myself and Dom just started tigging each other, you know just touching each other, going "Tig! Tig!" Just for like, no reason. And then, Sean came over, and he started doing it as well. And then we'd say, "Tigtig, tigtag" like, for no reason. And then Elijah came over and said, "What are you guys doing?" We said, "Oh, we're playing a game called Tig." He says, "Well how do you play?" And we spent like the next two hours making up rules...
ELIJAH: And trying to teach me, and of course, I was getting everything wrong...
SEAN: He couldn't follow the game, and the three of us were forever frustrated that he wasn't following these new rules that we continued to make up...
DOM: So we, the three of us, were constantly getting it right, and every time Elijah tried a new way of tigging, we'd say, "No, Elijah, you can't tig on a tog, you can't tag on a tig, you have to do an elephant impression if you're gonna tig Billy... If Billy's gonna tig you back, you have to get on your knees and take your trousers down..."
BILLY: How many times, Elijah, you can't double-tig a tag! *laughter*
DOM: And for like three weeks, he was saying how much he enjoyed playing Tig
SEAN: And he wanted to get the rule book!
BILLY: And remember we forgot to say it was a wind-up! So a year later he says, "Why do we never play Tig?" *laughter*
ELIJAH: And then they finally let the cat out of the bag. My whole world came shattering down on me when they told me that that was a lie. For a whole year, I believed it was a real game, and then they told me."
DOM: Sorry, Elijah.
ELIJAH: And then, what else was not true? That's what I was asking.
SEAN: It undermines the integrity of the entire relationship.
DOM: That's what I think.
{during the weathertop scene}
BILLY: You have to remember, between these shots, we were teaching Elijah how to play Tig.
ELIJAH: That's right, keep that at the back of your mind. The lie!
