Name That MJ Tune from One Line (Pt. 2)

About This Quiz

Here’s the deal. A single MJ line flashes, you choose the door that actually opens. Fast hands, faster gut. It’s muscle memory with a score.

Watch for the easy tells and the sneaky ones. “It’s close to midnight,” a desperate “Annie, are you OK?”, or a cool denial about “the kid is not my son.” Let texture decide—silk, steel, or stormcloud.

If you biff it, laugh and tap on. Heat up and you’ll feel the floor tilt happy. Curtain call: you pacing past a crooked picture frame, humming to it like it’s the audience, socks betraying you with a tiny slide.
