D.J.: Gentlemen, for your final task, this will be the exact same task Jay and Brian tackled in the boardroom -- only this time, there are two Jokers in the deck. They're wild and can be used for anything.
Robert, you cut the cards while most of us were in the boardroom. And now, the first two cards are about to be revealed.
Jess: We start with the Jack of Spades and the 10 of Hearts.
Doug: I have to ask, where did you find that sharp suit, Deej?
D.J.: Part of the divorce settlement from ex-husband #4.
Doug: My fault for asking. Gents, good luck, let's settle this once and for all. Here we go...

\ miniature golf course
\ all of the above
\ none of the aboveDoug: Robert.
Robert: All of the above?
Doug: Not right. Jay, chance to steal.
Jay: None of the above.
Doug: Also not right. Chattanooga was the first city to have a mini-golf course. No harm, no foul, we just go on to the next question. Same cards up for grabs...

Doug: No, he's the son of Dick Van Patten, who's a great poker player in his own right. He was also on the soap The Young & The Restless and I think that's where he met his wife, Eileen Davidson.
Same song, same verse. New 10-point question. Cards stay up for grabs...

(winning bells; audience cheers)
Doug: Well, let's just check both blind cards -- because if they're both Jokers, Robert and Jay each win CY$5000. Jess, let's take a look.
Jess: OK... (turns over both blind cards)
Jess: Just one Joker.
Doug: OK, well no bonus there. Robert, you have CY$500 and there's more good news. Because there was a question that might have affected the outcome of this round and could've given you a winning hand, we'll let you come back on our next episode. (audience applause) So, don't stray too far away. And now... uh... where's Deej?
Jess: I don't know.
Nelson: (over loud speaker) She had to go to the other studio to prepare for Jay's apprenticeship. We just now fired up the external camera and we'll put her on the big screen for video conferencing.
