Our board of investors has plenty of money — but they don't have a ton of patience for contestants who step into the elevator unprepared to seize the moment. "When you're in that elevator, you've got only sixty seconds to make your case, so don't waste that time," says Netflix co-founder Marc Randolph.

Find out what got Randolph so hot under the collar, and see other missteps that sent aspiring entrepreneurs back to the basement on this intense episode of Elevator Pitch. "This has been a real bloodbath!" says investor Kim Perrell. "Sometimes pitches get stitches."
