Doug: We're back on Net Definition. Jay Cross has had his first taste of dessert -- and now he's up for seconds. Same deal like last time. Solve the puzzle with no letter exposed and you win CY$50,000. Otherwise, we'll dip into the alphabet until we stumble upon a letter that works -- then entitled you to a guess for CY$1000 per unrevealed letter.
Let's go to Rich for your next bonus definition.

Rich: Even Broadway's not immune to the tough economy.
Doug: Wow, lengthy puzzle. Now I have two pieces of additional information for you. Somewhere in the answer, there's an apostrophe...
Doug: ...and somewhere else, there's a comma.
Doug: The remaining blanks hide letters of the alphabet. And that's all the help I can give you here at the CY$50,000 level. One time here for the 50-grand -- even Broadway's not immune to the tough economy.
Jay: No guess.
(a few groans from the crowd) (buzz buzz)
Doug: All right. Let's start giving letters. A.
Doug: Just *one* A in that mess? OK. This is for -- CY$27,000. Would be the most we've paid out without giving away 50-grand. Even Broadway's not immune to the tough economy.
Jay: Pass.
Doug: Okie doke. B.
Doug: Two B's. Or not two B's. The question is -- can you solve this for 25-thou? Even Broadway's not immune to the tough economy.
Jay: Need more letters up there.
Doug: OK, next up, C.
Doug: Ah, geez, don't tell me this is one of those puzzles where there's at least one of each letter. If so, we're going to have to call Net Family Feud and tell 'em we're gonna run late. (light laughter from the crowd) Unless you solve it here for 24-grand.
Jay: Well you better get Net Family Feud on speed dial... no guess.
(more laughter from the crowd) (buzz buzz)
Doug: No guess. Let me guess if there's a D there.
A TO Z ROUND CONTINUES
