Mason watches as the yellow ball sails over his head. "Thanks for returning that." He shouts over to the red side, before going to pick up the ball again.
Pick up the YELLOW ball and throw it at the last remaining RED guy. Try to time it so that it is thrown at around the same time as Larry if Larry throws a ball, but from a different angle.

EDIT:
Hey, are there guns to shoot at the contestants?
The fat man wobbles in excitement.
"Of course sir. The cheapest would be a revolver for 30 deadman dollars."
I'm glad customer service is high priority here.
Larry and Mason both grab their chosen ball and hurl them at Allen at the same time, but from different angles. Allen manages to dodge Larry's blue ball, but catches the Mason's yellow ball straight to the chest and contorts violently as it pumps electricity into his body. After a few seconds he finally collapses, still twitching, to the ground with a fresh electrical burn on his chest and smoke leaking from a black scorch mark in his jump suit.
A loud airhorn sounds and the center divider jerks up into the air, separating the two zones. The Host, high up on his vantage point, opens his arms to the crowd and gestures wildly as they applaud.
It's all over folks, and the Blue team has won! Thats right, with half it's members remaining, the Blue Barbarians have secured a tidy victory for themselves. And not only that, but two of their members, He gestures down toward Larry and Mason,
Have won first and second place!
The Host vaults off the clear catwalk and drops 10 feet to land effortlessly next to Mason and Larry. At the same time, Allen, still looking only semi-conscious, is carried out by two burly stage hands, his arms around their shoulders and his feet dragging limply behind him. He is dragged over next to Mason and Larry so that they form a neat little line and the Host steps in front of them, still smiling up at the audience.
Of course, third place goes to Allen. He gets himself a whole 2 points! The Host pats Allen on the shoulder
Good effort. Second place, and three points, goes to Mason here. He survived just as long as Larry, but wasn't nearly as proactive. Remember Mason, fortune favors the bold. And finally, in first place, He stops here for a moment to motion for more applause
Larry! Congratulations Larry! You not only get a whole FIVE points, but one randomly selected prize! And that prize is... A drum roll plays and the Host contorts his face into an exaggerated mask of anticipation
A BRAND NEW REVOLVER! He whips the revolver out of an inside pocket of his suit and holds it in the air for all to see.
Yes, this chrome plated, double-action beauty comes complete with 6 hollow point rounds all loaded and ready for immediate use. And it's all yours, Larry. He hands the weapon to Larry.
Use it in good health. He gives Larry a hard pat on the shoulder before smiling up at the cameras.
Stay tuned folks, because after this commercial break, we've got Navarro in his punishment game! .........
Nathan Schmidt says he's got your best interest in mind. He says he wants to roll back taxes. He says he wants to increase freedom of speech and reinstate the right to assemble. He says he wants to make this a government for the ordinary citizen, not a plutocracy which seeks only to protect the wealth of it's richest citizens.
But let me ask you something? Are you gonna listen to a man whose last name sounds dangerously close to Shit?
Paid for by the foundation to get Nathan Schmidt Assassinated.
.........
Welcome back ladies and gentleman, To DEAD MAN RUNNING!The camera pans out from The Host's grinning face to show a room that seems quite separated from the open arena of before. It's a long, brightly lit metal tunnel, with the Host on one end, in front of some sort of machine, and Navarro all the way down at the other end, standing behind a yellow and black line painted on the ground.
Now, before the break, played a nice round of Maul-ball and Navarro down there He points down the hall Was eliminated first.
And we all know what that means: He gets to play a PUNISHMENT GAME! And today's game is called Glass Cutter! The premise is very simple: Behind me, here, He points to the machine behind him with his cane,
Is a pitching machine! It is designed to use a pair of spinning wheels to throw baseballs for batters to practice their swings on. Well, our engineers have modified it a bit. Now, it throws these! He holds up a foot long, jagged glass shard, which appears to have simply been roughly broken off of a pane of glass.
Fun huh? Now, when I press the start button, this machine is going to start hurling shards of glass similar to this one down this hall towards Navarro. And all he has to do to complete this game is to catch one! Simple, right? How he does it isn't important, all thats important is that he catches it and holds on to it for 5 seconds without it breaking or touching the ground. Now then, NAVARRO! he shouts down the hall,
GET READY! GET SET! GOOOOOOO! The host presses a button on the machine and, after a few seconds of the wheels spinning up to speed, the first shard is hurled down range with a horrifying hiss.
