At this point Ellen in the present time appears in order to tell guests that every time somebody takes a nap in front of the TV that means they are going to have a dream. The scene then shifts to Ellen's dream (or nightmare) in which she is appearing on Jeopardy! alongside Dr. Judy Peterson and Albert Einstein. Alex Trebek (the host of Jeopardy!) tells the contestants the categories for the day’s show, which all have to do with energy. After the end of the first round, Judy has $17,800 while Einstein has zero and Ellen has negative money. Although defeated, Ellen declares that since it is her dream she can still win. Bill Nye then appears (to meet Einstein) and agrees to teach Ellen about energy, by taking her back in time.
