Pass

Pass is a lifeline, which is used in Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Hot Seat only. The meaning of this lifeline is that one contestant in a difficult situation can "pass" to another contestant, another also to the next and so on. The contestant, who made the pass, leaves the hot seat, and the next contestant sits in it and tries to answer this question. Repeated pass on the same question is impossible. In order for this option to appear, it must answer at least one (current) question, that is, pass it. A warning appears on the screen that "Can't Pass".

If a contestant fails to give an answer in the time limit, it is considered an automatic use of the Pass lifeline. In the case that time expires and the current contestant cannot pass the question (either because they were passed the current question or they used their pass already), they are treated as if they gave an incorrect answer.
