The premise
Here’s the bit.
On the game show What's That Name?, a CFO and a senior partner easily identify celebrity faces from clues. The stakes rise when the host brings out a surprise clue-reader: the contestant's own doorman, then the office cleaner, each asking to be named after years of service. Both contestants come up blank, and the host and doorman skewer their obliviousness. A bonus round built around eight forgotten summer interns tests the winner's luck once more, with a final turn that sends his winnings back to zero.
