Brooke: Life hacks are supposed to make your life better.

Kevin: So if any of these hacks make it worse,

stop what you're doing immediately!

On a sizzling new "hacks del corazón"...

I've been secretly seeing your twin sister.

[ Gasps ]

Who do you love more?!

Honestly, you're both very similar.

[ Grunts ]

You broke my heart!

And my nail!

Here.

File it on the strike pad of this matchbook.

This way, your ragged nail won't snag on anything.

You have mended my broken nail,

but still, my heart is broken!

We will fix your broken heart by sparking the match of love.

Will señor solución choose his mistress or her twin?

Find out on the next "hacks del corazón."

[ Whistle blows ] Brooke: Tonight...

So, you want to sleep with me? Nope?

Brooke: We find out if it's sink or swim

for these floatation hacks.

Who wants to save me?!

Kevin: Plus, tricks to hail a cab faster than the competition.

Oh, this guy likes the sight of your cash!

Brooke: Hacks to get you through pregnancy like a pro.

Kevin: And a special visit from science Bob

that will help you achieve liftoff.

Science!

Brooke: Lights, camera, hack-ion.

Kevin: This is "hack my life."

The human body is made up of 60% water,

which makes it pretty buoyant.

But that's not particularly comforting

if you don't know how to swim.

Well, don't worry.

Today, we're testing out hacks that could keep you afloat

if you don't have a life jacket.

Hack vs. Hack.

Right now, I'm joined by Eileen, James, and Mark.

So, all three of you are, in fact, lifeguards, yes?

Together: Yeah. Underneath this towel,

I've got three items

that could help keep you afloat in case

you don't have a life jacket handy.

Any idea what they are?

No idea.

♪ Here they are! ♪

Three potential lifesavers, my friends.

First up, we got a soccer ball.

Our next hack is a pair of pants.

Finally, some good old-fashioned bubble wrap.

So is there a hack that you're gravitating towards?

Yeah, I think I'm gonna take the ball.

Because it reminds me

kind of like a buoy you'd see on the ocean.

That's a good idea, but, I mean,

I've never gone to the beach with a roll of bubble wrap.

But I think there's gonna be enough air in it

that if you wrap yourself up, maybe you can stay afloat.

That means, Mark, you've got the pants.

Congrats? I'm sorry? How do you feel about that?

-I feel good about it. -Yeah? Yeah.

I'm actually trained in survival swimming.

I know exactly what to do with those babies.

-Really? -Yeah.

All right, friends, the rules are very simple.

Whoever's hack keeps them afloat the longest

while they exert the least amount of energy

will be declared the winner.

One final question -- who's ready to get wet?

On the sound of my whistle, let's get to it.

[ Whistle blows ]

Oh! Okay, they're in.

-Eileen, how's it going? -Good.

Yeah? I haven't seen seen those legs kicking, do I?

We're just floating with a soccer ball?

-Just floating. -Oh, James.

I'm struggling over here.

I don't know if this is gonna work.

Is that bubble wrap holding you up entirely, James?

'Cause I feel like I'm seeing a lot of leg movement down there.

-What was that? -I don't know.

I don't think it's going to be able to hold me up.

Mark has got the pants off.

Now let's see if he can tie them and fill them with air.

Mark, what's going on, buddy?

You got the pants off right away.

Then you're fumbling with a button there?

Okay. Get them nice and cinched.

Make sure everything's tight to that air does not escape.

Oh! Wow! Did you guys see that?!

James, you holding strong?

These are falling apart.

I'm going down slowly.

But a smile on his face.

[ Laughing ] Mark? Mark, you still with us, buddy?

Super-easy. It's like a pillow.

But don't you have to refill it with air every now and then?

Isn't some escaping?

When that happens, all you have to do is blow it up.

Wow.

Eileen, you seem to be going very strong.

Yeah, I mean, as long as I hug this ball really tight,

I can float here as long as I need to.

You've got energy for days.

All right, before we lose James, should we call it?

Hack vs. Hack is over.

[ Whistle blows ] Bring it in.

James, let's start with you.

I would say altogether, just keep away

from the bubble wrap in the pool, yeah.

-That's fair. -Yeah.

Mark, how did those pants hold up?

They held up pretty well. They're still pants.

And you dry them, they're good as new.

It did require a bit of effort, though, to get on.

It does, yeah.

Eileen, what about the soccer ball.

The soccer ball works so well.

So in a pinch, a soccer ball or any sort of ball

could potentially save your life.

I would say so.

I have to award a winner, and pants are an amazing hack.

However, when every second counts,

it just feels like too many steps.

So for the sake of simplicity,

I'm giving it to Eileen and her soccer ball.

-Yeah! -The soccer ball wins!

[ Cheers and applause ]

Who wants to save me?!

-Soccer ball. -Oh, god, that hurt!

That hit my face!

Ugh! [ Groans ]

Kevin: Sometimes even extraordinary couples face ordinary problems.

Couples like Helen and humphry,

two hack heroes who are adding a little hacker

to the family any minute now.

Getting through the final weeks of pregnancy won't be easy,

but these two are up to the challenge

because they are the hacktastics!

Helen's baby bump is bigger than ever,

and so is the strain it's putting on her spine.

-I can't sleep. -Hmm.

Fortunately, humphry's got a hack

for his wife's aching back.

A travel pillow.

Placing the pillow under Helen's tummy takes

some of the weight off her spine

and lets her sleep comfortably on her side.

Sorry, humphry, this hack just isn't big enough

for the three of you.

[ Cat yowls ]

[ Grunts ]

Kevin: As Helen's belly grows, her wardrobe options shrink.

But she won't waste money on maternity wear,

not when she can harness the hacking power of hair ties!

Helen loops the hair tie through the buttonhole of her jeans,

then hooks it into the button to extend the life

of her dungarees by another trimester!

Nice jeans, mom!

Though Helen is pregnant,

humphry knows she likes to start her morning

with a couple of cold ones.

[ Wolf-whistle ]

The hormonal imbalances of pregnancy

can be a real pain in the ta-tas.

But with support from an ice-cold brassiere,

Helen will stay cool, calm, and collected.

Pregnancy can be a joy, a natural wonder.

But Helen is a week overdue and ready to pop.

To speed things along,

she and humphry ditch the couch...

For exercise balls.

Bouncing gently up and down can ease the baby

into the birthing position and induce labor.

[ Rumbling ]

Holy hacktastics! It worked!

The little hacker is on the way!

Nice work, mom and dad.

Now the hard part is almost over.

Well, except for actually raising the kid.

[ Door closes ]

But you'll be fine, because you are the hacktastics!

Coming up, science Bob makes

all your flying car fantasies come true.

Science!

Brooke: And we'll show you

how to hail a cab faster than ever before.

Kevin: That was like three seconds.

Kevin: When the hack returns.

Later this season on "hacks del corazón"...

I am no longer seeing your twin sister.

Then you are all mine, señor solución!

But I'm not señor solución.

I am his twin brother.

Eduardo.

But how?!

Make love to me!

[ Crack ] Ohh!

My love, what is wrong?

I've hyperextended my elbow.

-It is mucho extended. -Oh!

You must be in so much pain!

Do not worry, my little bird.

By cutting off the bottom of this beer koozie

and slipping it onto my arm,

I have made a compression sleeve

that will reduce swelling.

You are even smarter than your twin.

Will señor solución find out his twin

is having an affair with his mistress all the while

he's having an affair with his mistress's twin?

Find out on "hacks del corazón."

My fellow hackmericans, despite promises

from "the jetsons" and "back to the future,"

we still do not have flying cars.

Well, that changes today --

thanks to my friend and hack master science Bob.

This is hack masters -- hovercraft edition.

Science Bob, these are my friends.

Hi, friends.

They don't know this, but in their garage,

they actually might have a fully functional hovercraft

-waiting there. -Waiting to be built.

So, how are we powering this thing?

With a little something called air.

In this case, a leaf blower.

[ Humming, humming stops ]

This is all the air we need.

I've taken the nozzle off,

and now we're ready to start our build.

And we gotta start with the base.

For that, we are gonna need a 3/4-inch piece of plywood

cut into a ginormous circle.

Ah, we happen to have just that.

In this case, a four-foot circle.

We need to put a hole in it, so I've matched a hole drill

with the size of the leaf blower.

-Oh! Okay. -And so now,

our leaf blower will fit right in there nice and snug.

Now it's time to add a little cushion.

We can't just blow it out of one place.

We have to spread the air out.

And that is where that old tarp

in the corner of your garage comes in handy.

-All right. -Oh, yeah, that looks nice.

So now the air is gonna blow and fill this up like a pillow.

What we want to do is control it exiting,

so we create a cushion of air going around to all the sides.

So first we're gonna put down a support right

in the middle of this.

You can use a coffee can lid, a couple of washers --

just something to give it a little bit of support.

That will just make sure it doesn't balloon out too much.

Then we're gonna make five or six holes around the center.

So the good news is, we're pretty darn close.

I don't see how we are almost finished.

It's a piece of wood and a tarp.

Well, let's just try it here on the table.

-Okay, please, please. -Ready, here we go.

[ Humming ]

What?!

That's crazy!

But with all due respect, Bob, if I can't go forward,

I'm gonna be really hover-bored. [Board]

[ Rim shot ]

Yes.

So the next thing we need to do

is add some propulsion.

Now, you can do that just by having someone push you.

Okay.

Or you can use a fire extinguisher.

Yes! Yes! That's way better!

It's time to trick this thing out.

Hell yeah. Okay, please.

Ta-da! Come on, it's nice, huh?

She's so beautiful!

We tricked it out an extra bonus by doing dual propulsion.

So in theory, this should give you the ability

to not only go forward, but to turn.

-That is incredible. -I know.

One thing, though, if I may?

-Yeah. -Brakes?

Oh. Uh, no brakes.

[ Smacks lips ]

Great.

[ Bob laughs ]

Science!

Wait -- yeah.

There you go.

Squeeze them! Squeeze them!

Whoo!

Okay, Bob.

Well, sometimes in science...

You have a hypothesis.

-Right. -And then you do the test...

-Right. -And you don't really hover.

Right. So you have to tweak.

So you figure out what went wrong.

Now, in this case, I'd say we have kind of an uneven surface,

which affects the air flow.

And then maybe we could put

a slightly more powerful blower in there.

Okay. So we make a couple adjustments,

and then we dare to dream and hover another day.

Hover another day.

Bye! [ Laughs ]

See ya later -- in the future!

Science!

Bedding blues got you down?

Well, I've got you covered.

This is pop quiz.

Difficult duvet cover threatening to ruin your date night?

Everything needs to be perfect before chazz gets here.

Well, lucky for you, I know my way around a bedroom.

I've got a hack that'll get that comforter under wraps

in today's pop quiz!

This is more excitement than this room

has seen in weeks!

-Let's play! -Easy, tiger.

Save it for chazz.

Do you think you should use "a," a broom stick,

"b," rolling it up like a delicious burrito,

or, "c," a clothes hanger?

Well, it seems a broom stick

would help you get the comforter in those corners.

I'm gonna go with "a," the broom stick.

[ Buzzer ]

Ha! In your dreams.

The answer is actually "b," the burrito method.

-Really? -Just turn the duvet cover

inside out and lay it flat on the bed.

Place your duvet on top

and start rolling at the closed end.

Then tuck the ends into the cover

to finish your bedroom burrito,

zip the cover closed, and unroll.

This looks amazing!

Thanks, pop quiz lady.

Now, do you have any hacks for convincing someone

it's time to move in together?

Um, not that I can share on a TV-14 show.

Sleep tight, hackers.

[ Whispering ] I'll be watching.

Kevin: Coming up, a hacker's guide

to catching a cab anytime, anywhere.

Not easy for a wounded bird out here

in this concrete jungle.

Brooke: And tricks to turn those cheap sheets

into hotel-quality linens.

No way!

When the "hack" comes back.

On the rousing conclusion of "hacks del corazón"...

My sister and I are in love with your twin!

Forget him. Run away with me.

I can't!

Ay, you're right.

Aaah!

[ Gasps ]

You have spilled the wax on the expensive rrrrug!

Worry not.

I shall place this bag of ice on the wax until it is frozen.

Then I will chip away at the wax with this dull knife.

[ Ting! Ting! ]

It seems your bag of ice has saved the expensive rrrug.

Now place that bag of ice on your heart --

to cool your burning passion!

There is no ice on this earth cold enough to cool my desire.

Ay!

"Hacks del corazón."

Taxi. Taxi!

Rush hour in big cities is the worst!

It's just a mob of angry people all fighting for the same cab.

Yeah, now, whether you live in a big city

or you're just visiting one,

we're gonna show you how to stand out from the crowd

and hack your way into the back of a cab.

This is gaming the system.

Kevin: Today, we're testing out three hacks

that should help you hail a cab faster,

and we're doing it at peak rush hour,

so the majority of cabs are already full.

The average wait time for a cab

in New York City is five minutes.

If we can beat that time, we'll consider the system gamed.

Our first hack, believe it or not -- it's a wad of cash.

Ooh, la la!

The thinking here is that if cabbies

see you flashing a little green, they'll pick you up faster.

Brooke: Flash that cash. We got a stack.

Oh, this guy likes the sight of your cash.

Oh. He didn't. Wow.

Come on, buddy.

I wonder if they think you're trying to do

an illegal transaction with me.

And they don't want any part of it.

This guy might cut across four lanes of traffic.

No, he just got someone.

Oh, she's gonna? Oh, okay.

Did she just upstream us? This is gonna be a battle right here.

-But I got a wad of cash. -Yeah.

Are you kidding me?! I had a wad of cash!

[ Mockingly ] Well, enjoy your ride. Enjoy your ride.

[ Buzzer ]

Our next hack is a whistle.

Brooke: Using a whistle is a trick that doormen at hotels

and fancy apartment buildings use

when they need to hail a cab for someone.

Let's see if it will work for little old me.

Okay, we got five minutes to use that whistle to get a cab.

Oh, I'm gonna hail a semi.

[ Whistle blowing ]

[ Ding ]

He made eye contact with me. Sorry, guys.

Gotta have a whistle to get a cab in New York.

-How you doing? -Cab wasn't even visible.

He heard the whistle, pulled around the truck

with the hazards on, and now Brooke is off.

And for our final hack, it's the lame duck.

Kevin: All right, it's not the most ethical thing in the world,

but let's see if these crutches can score me

some sympathy points and a quicker ride.

[ Grunting ]

Oh, my god.

[ Grunts ] Come on.

Oh, come on! I got a busted wingie!

Sir, si-- oh, come on!

Where's your soul?!

God! All these cabs are taken!

Sir, let me hop on the back. No? Okay.

Okay, four minutes, buddy.

You know, maybe if you're lucky, an ambulance will pick you up.

Okay, I got a minute. You'll see. This is my one.

Come on, I'm gonna lock eyes, give it a nice wave.

Oh, this guy up here. Come on, buddy. Come on.

Oh! Oh, eye contact!

Blinker! Oh!

Oh, sweet victory. [ Ding ]

Oh, thank you. Curbside service because I am injured.

Byeeeeee!

Oh. Oh, look who it is.

It's 2017's biggest a-hole.

Oh! My ankles are fine!

I guess that's a hack.

And this bad boy got me into a cab in under a minute.

Want to get us a ride out of here?

Yeah, let's do it. So I'm just gonna...

Oh! Why?!

Okay, get your little crutch out there, bud.

-Oh! -I'm trying the whistle, too,

just so we definitely succeed.

-Get your own cab. -What's the..

[ Whistle blows ]

Kevin: Close your laptop and throw your smartphone down a well.

Brooke: We're bringing the Internet's craziest hackers to your TV.

It's worldwide hacks.

If you're a fan of this show, then you know that Kevin

and I have failed miserably in our attempts

to change the way america eats corn.

-Is that working for you? -It's wack.

Which is why we're excited to bring you a hack

that will change the corn-eating game forever.

Here to show it to us is competitive eater yasir Salem.

Thanks for having me.

So you have the current world record, correct?

-Yeah! -I'm the world record

holder in sweet corn eating.

What was everyone doing so wrong

where you saw the window for improvement?

So the way that most people do it is the typewriter method,

which is basically start from one end,

you go to the other, and use your teeth up and down.

And everybody seemed to be topping out at about

36 ears of corn in 12 minutes.

-So much fiber. -Yeah.

So I started looking around.

I completely threw the typewriter

method out the window.

And so I picked up this little device,

which is actually called a corn stripper.

Okay.

And the way it works is up and down,

as opposed to, you know, the typewriter method.

So it's more about the strength of going up and down

versus, like, using your jaw.

Tell me about the new hotness.

When you entered the game, when you changed things --

what are you at?

47. 47 in 12 minutes.

Which is basically one corn on the cob every 15 seconds.

I kind of want to see this in action.

Oh, I've been saving my appetite.

Yeah!

I'll just explain it to your real quick.

You go seven or eight passes

using only your top teeth, not your bottom.

And then you twist on the ends and then go all the way across.

Here we go. Ready?

Ready.

Kevin: Okay, that's good. Wow.

Wow!

Oh! Oh, there's the twist. There was the twist.

Twist to clean.

Wow!

-That tastes so good. -[ Laughs ]

I'm glad you really enjoy corn.

All right, I'm gonna try to -- I'm gonna go half speed.

I'm excited, yeah. Here we go.

-Yes. That looks good. -Oh. Yeah.

What's interesting is that your nose

gets really intimate with it, too.

-Yes! -Yeah, you can even get

an errant kernel in a sinus, can't you?

Yes, yeah.

Good. You're actually doing really well.

Thanks, yasir! Appreciate it.

Yeah. Good job!

-[ Muffled ] There you go. -Yeah.

They're gonna have to come and hose you down.

I'm a mess, yasir.

It's okay. It's okay.

Yasir, you are 10 kinds of awesome, man.

Thank you so much for joining us.

-Great talking to you. Bye!

All right, I'm gonna pass the corn to Brooke now.

Yeah, we just want to turn off the cameras when I do this.

Yeah, let's make sure everybody clear the studio, please,

'cause she gets into a rage.

Everybody, out!

She's corn-raging, guys! We know the drill.

Stop looking at me!

Kevin: Up next...

Step up and spot the hack.

We show you how to hack your thread count

without emptying your bank account.

What?!

When the "hack" slumbers back.

Trying to sleep on scratchy sheets can be a real nightmare.

But why pay top dollar for fancy bedding?

Today, we're trying out a hack to soften up cheap sheets,

and we're putting it to the test in the wild of New York!

Oh, it's so wild!

This is spot the hack.

To hack your own cheap sheets at home,

all you need to do is throw them in the washer

with one cup of baking soda, a half cup of vinegar,

and run them for one wash cycle.

-Come on, New York! -Step up and spot the hack!

Roll around in bed with Kevin, everybody.

Sir, do you want to sleep with me? Spot the hack?

Nope.

Hey, you guys want to spot the hack?

-Ah, there we go. -Take a break for a moment.

-How are you two? -Thanks for stepping on up.

We're playing a little game today called spot the hack.

Kevin: We have one set of expensive sheets,

and then we've got a set of $25 bedsheets

that we performed a hack on that might make it feel

just as soft as the expensive variety.

What do you say we hop in and see if we can spot the hack?

-Yeah! -Guys, no shoes in the bed.

That's our one rule.

Just get in here and roll around.

Ohhhh!

Brooke: So, what are you feeling in the sheets?

I don't know. I wouldn't buy these.

-Okay. -But I could sleep right now.

Oh, I could sleep on this, for sure.

-It feels simple, soft. -The texture?

-I would have to disagree. -Okay.

I think this does not feel too soft.

-How do you like those sheets? -They feel new,

like just out of the package.

-Mm-hmm. -But still not bad.

It doesn't take a lot to please me, so I like them.

All right, well, that's the first set of sheets.

Why don't we move on to our second set?

Brooke: Live it up. Roll around like you would at home.

These pillows are way softer. 100%.

The light-blue sheets feel...

I don't know, softer.

I'm still with the dark-blue.

-This one already feels softer. -It does. Less rough.

-Interesting. Okay. -I like them.

Well, this is spot the hack, so you have to do just that.

Which set of sheets do you think is the hack?

I think the dark-blue ones I think were the hacked ones.

Honestly, this looks more expensive.

I think the light-blue was hacked.

I'm going to say that the dark-blue one was hacked.

Dark-blue is the cheaper sheet.

I'd say dark-blue, too.

The hacked set of bedsheets...

[ Drum roll ]

...is light-blue.

-Yeah, these are -- -what?!

These are $25 bedsheets

that we hacked to feel luxurious.

I would love to know the secret of that.

One cup of baking soda, half a cup of vinegar,

and just do a wash cycle once.

-No way! -Five to one.

Go to your pantry, hack yourself some bedsheets

and sleep soundly for the rest of your life.

Treat yourself, people.

I'm gonna do that when I get home.

Want to come over to our place and wash our sheets, too?

Um...

No.
