Player 1:  
Player 2:  

The board comes , and Player 1 flops a pair of kings and rivers two pair, but the ace on the river also gives O’Neill an ace-high straight with his pocket queens to win the entire pot and eliminate both players shortly before the dinner break.

After the hand O’Neill mentions how weird it is that he started out rooting against seeing an ace, and then it was an ace that saved him on the river.
