The following is a list of episodes of Fox's game show The Moment of Truth.
The first contestant was former XFL and NFL player Tinker Keck (called "Ty" on this episode). He lost the $25,000 that he had earned when he claimed he had never touched a female personal training client more than was needed. The first episode was the lead out after the highly rated American Idol, and managed to rate very well itself with 23 million viewers, the highest rating for a premiere so far in 2008.
The following were the questions asked to Ty (the contestant's answers are included in parenthesis):
Following Ty was George Ortuzar, who worked as a manager at Hollywood Park Racetrack in Los Angeles, California. He answered seven questions correctly on the first episode before time ran out. He came on the show with his girlfriend Lilly, Lilly's Uncle, and his boss.
The following are the seven questions George was asked during episode 1 along with his answers in parenthesis:
1. Have you ever gone through a co-workers private belongings without their knowledge? (yes)
2. Have you ever had a sexual fantasy while attending mass? (yes)
3. Do you consider yourself to be better looking than most men your age? (yes)
4. Are you currently a member of the Hair Club for Men? (yes)
5. Have you ever considered that you might be addicted to gambling? (yes)
6. Do you have a bank account your girlfriend doesn't know about? (no)
7. Have you ever padded your underwear to look more well endowed? (yes)
Marketing manager and television personality George Ortuzar continued his questioning on the second show. After truthfully answering no to the question of whether or not he'd ever gambled away one of his children's college funds (his son, who was present, had previously been told by Ortuzar's ex-wife that he had gambled his college fund away), he declared that he felt that he "was a winner" even if he left with nothing. He ended up walking away after question 15 with $100,000.
Here are the questions George was asked in continuation of Episode 1.
8. Have you ever helped someone smuggle something into the country? (yes)
