Can a theme park superfan be defeated by a casual observer? In this high-stakes episode of Bricking It, the tables are turned! Our resident quizmaster Mike (Universal Studios GB Updates) puts the boys to the test with 25 grueling questions spanning the entire globe of Universal Destinations & Experiences.

From the fog of Halloween Horror Nights in Orlando to the high-tech marvels of Universal Studios Japan, no stone is left unturned. Lawrence, known for his deep-dive expertise at Universally Bedford, enters the arena as the heavy favorite. Meanwhile, Andy from Project Universal—who claims he’s "not a theme park nerd"—is looking to pull off the ultimate underdog upset.

• Global Trivia: 25 questions covering Hollywood, Orlando, Japan, Singapore, and even early whispers of Universal Studios Great Britain.

• Expert vs. Amateur: Can Lawrence’s encyclopedic knowledge hold up under pressure, or will Andy’s "common sense" approach win the day?

• Play Along: We challenge YOU to keep score. Are you a "Team Member" in training or a "Creative Director" level genius?

• The Results: Stick around until the end to see who takes home the (imaginary) trophy and the ultimate bragging rights in the Bedford brickworks.

"It’s not just about what you know—it’s about how you handle the pressure when Mike starts digging into the obscure 90s history of the parks!"

This is a BIG one.
