A To Z Round
Doug: Welcome back. During the break, we were talking about "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" and how I just don't get into movies like that. For my money, vampire movies suck.
Doug: This is the last show for the year. Gotta get 'em in before the holiday break. (light laughter from the crowd) John, you know what's happening here. A right answer pays CY$1000 per unrevealed letter or CY$50,000 if you solve it before I even give you the A.
Feast your eyes on the board as Rich gives you this game's bonus definition.
Rich: Questions from a clueless meteorologist.
Doug: John, before we even give you the A, I have to give you two characters that are not letters of the alphabet. Light 'em up, please.
Doug: And no surprise -- they're question marks. That's all the help I can give you at the big payoff level. One time only for CY$50,000, questions from a clueless meteorologist.
John: Nary an idea yet. Pass.
(buzz buzz) (a few groans from the crowd)
Doug: OK. Maybe next time. For now, A.
Doug: Woah, three A's -- and each A appears in each word. For CY$9000, questions from a clueless meteorologist.
John: Pass.
Doug: Very well. B. (pause) C. (pause) D. (pause)E. (pause) F. (pause) Isn't this fun? G. (pause) H.
Doug: Gettin' 'em in threes, again. Let's see if you can go ha-ha-ha and laugh all the way to the bank with six-grand. (light laughter from the crowd) Questions from a clueless meteorologist.
John: What thaw? Hail?
Doug: Incorrect. We move further. I.
(ding)Doug: And an I pops in as the third letter of the last word. For five-thou, tell us these -- questions from a clueless meteorologist.
John: Let's try it this way and see what happens. Thaw what? Hail?
Doug: Incorrect. We move forward and give you a J. (pause) K. (pause) L.
(ding)Doug: L completes the last word. All you have to do is figure out the first two and you win CY$4000.
John: Still don't see it. Pass.
Doug: Okie doke. M. (pause) N. (pause)O. (pause) P. (pause) Q. (pause) R. (pause) S. (pause) T.
