CY$750 Round







(FF reveal sfx)

Rich: An honor for a lazy guy.

Doug: An honor for a lazy guy. Steve, give away a letter you do not want.

Steve: Hoo boy -- let's get this thing rolling. I'll pass Michael the Q.

Doug: No Q. Now take a letter.

Steve: I'll take the E for myself, please.

Doug: We have two E's.






(ding)

Doug: Two E's give you the first chance at tying the game. An honor for a lazy guy.

Steve: I have to pass.

(buzz buzz)

Doug: That means we have to give Michael a shot at it.

Michael: I'll give away the X.

Doug: No X. Now take a letter.

Michael: I'll take the R.

Doug: We have one of those.






(ding)

Doug: Every time you earn a chance to guess, Michael, you're going for the game. Further, in this case, a clean sweep and a possible 100-grand. Here's the definition again: An honor for a lazy guy.

Michael: I think I know the last 3 words, but not the first word. I'm going to pass.

(buzz buzz)

Doug: All right. It's back to Steve.

Steve: I will give Michael the Z.

Doug: No Z. Take a letter.

Steve: May I have the T, please.

Doug: There are two T's -- but...






(ding)

Doug: ...we're still working on that bottom row. Still, Steve, it gives you a chance to tie the score. An honor for a lazy guy.

Steve: Fingers crossed, is it..."SNAIL OF THE CENTURY"?

Doug: That's right and we're tied!






(ding) (audience applause)

Doug: See, they gave me this follow-up joke -- but I'll spare you the line while resisting the temptation.

(Doug tosses away card) (audience groans)

Doug: I obviously can't win for losing.

MICHAEL
 
 

(theme plays)

Doug: Speaking of "win", Steve just won CY$750. It all comes down to one round for all the marbles. Find out who wins the game -- after this.
