Team Dustine (Rob, Paolo, Stephanie, Stef, and Kai) against Team Luke (Eslam, Tiff, Gabb, Ashton, Maxine) wins the history quiz bee.

Netizens’ Reaction

Despite the winning moment for Team Dustine, the netizens are not happy with their performance as most of the questions are easy and are basic Philippine history that everyone must know and remember. 

The most trending topic “GomBurZa” earned a lot of attention when Kai and Gabb guessed based on the names presented.

The answer “SLEX” also gained much attention as an answer for the longest bridge in the Philippines.

Due to the disappointing event that happened during the episode, the people are tweeting and tagging DepEd to open the schools.

Meanwhile, others have gone to memes to express their reaction.
