The remaining four Group C contestants brought their A-game in an attempt to ensure a spot in the Masked Singer‘s Super Nine.

Wednesday’s episode saw the four remaining disguised stars — Astronaut, Night Angel, Rhino and T-Rex — kick off the night with a group performance of Jennifer Lopez‘s “Let’s Get Loud.”

“That was one of the weirdest things I’ve ever seen,” admitted guest judge and LEGO Masters host Will Arnett.

Then the singers took the stage individually for the Group C Playoffs after their clue packages shared hints from a close friend or family member. For their final clue, each singer offered up a LEGO-themed clue to one of the judges in honor of Arnett joining Jenny McCarthy, Ken Jeong, Nicole Scherzinger and Robin Thicke on the panel this week.

McCarthy asserted that Night Angel will “win the whole competition” and she just might be right. Night Angel moved onto the Super Nine after the judges and studio audience voted on their favorite performances of the evening. Unfortunately, T-Rex — who sang “Jai Ho! (You Are My Destiny)” by A.R. Rahman and Scherzinger’s group The Pussycat Dolls — turned into a fossil in the Masked Singer graveyard of eliminated contestants when she ended up as voters’ least favorite performance.

Moments before T-Rex removed her sharp teeth, McCarthy, Scherzinger and Thicke all correctly agreed that Dance Moms alum JoJo Siwa was underneath the prehistoric outfit.

“I actually paused my tour to do this,” the singer, actress and YouTube star, 16, said. “I was like, ‘Pause, I want to do this!’ ”

With her LEGO clue, Siwa told Arnett that they were connected through his movie LEGO Batman. She explained after being unmasked, “I was at the world premiere of the Lego Batman movie and I was wearing my poodle shoes. It’s very subtle.”

Scherzinger then joined Siwa for her final performance of “Jai Ho.”
