- Apex Mountain is explained as whether anyone's career peaked with the movie; one host says yes for James Van Der Beek, on Dawson's Creek, leading a football movie and winning Teen Choice and MTV Movie Awards, while another asks whether his second life as a meme counts as more impactful.
- Thinks Dawson goes on for many more years and becomes a sensation for tweens, which is what he is still most associated with, so his apex is the later Dawson years. — Mallory Rubin
- Scott Kahn (as transcribed) is a no, with Hawaii Five-0 and the Oceans movie; Ali Larder is a no, with the Final Destinations, fighting Beyonce and Heroes; Amy Smart was already covered; John Voight (as transcribed) is a no, having won an Oscar for Midnight Cowboy in 1969 and fathered Angelina Jolie, with the joke that Anaconda, alongside Ice Cube, is his apex.
- Billy Bob, sadly, is a yes: this was his apex.
- Paul Walker is a no, not even close; this paved the way for one of the host's favorite apexes, and he is so beautiful and pristine here that everyone would have guessed he would be the biggest star from the movie.
