Doug: Ouch! Not even a pair! Gonna be tough to build a full house. Go ahead and make exchanges.
Barry: Yikes! Way to go Phoebe. Anyway, I will keep the Ace, and replace the others with 2, 6, 22, and 24.
Doug: Let's hope this hand's not as cat-astrophic. (audience boos) You realize you folks are staying for Net Definition. (light laughter from the crowd) Let's see 2, 6, 22 and 24.

(FF reveal sfx) (audience groans)
Doug: Well, you got two more Aces but you also got a Queen and 10.

Doug: Bumps you up to 45 -- but not enough for a win. Eddie, you'll need at least a full house to stay in it. Let's shuffle.
|
Doug: We're all set. Before you pick five numbers, let's get the Eddie Timanus story.
Eddie: Well, I'm a reporter covering college sports for a major daily, which is thankfully still printing. My lovely wife and I have the world's cutest four-year-old boy.
("awws" from the crowd)
Doug: Here's hoping the little guy continues to bring you and the Mrs. lots of joy. OK, five numbers, please.
Eddie: All right, let's try 4, 11, 16, 21 and 23.
|
Doug: Eddie, 4, 11, 16, 21 and 23 gave you, respectively, the Ace of Spades, King of Clubs, 10 of Clubs, Ace of Diamonds and Queen of Clubs.
You've got two ingredients for a full house -- but the other three cards are ingredients for a royal flush in Clubs. Tough decision -- how do you play it?
Eddie: Hmmm...know what? I'm gonna take a shot at the royal. Let's lose the bullets.
Doug: Calling his shot. OK, the Aces are gone. Pick two new numbers.
Eddie: I'll try 8 and 19.
Doug: All right, if those numbers hide Clubs higher than a 9, *you* win the car and the 100-hundred grand, *you* win a berth in the Mega Playoff -- and if Josh were to win this game later, we'll figure something out. What's behind 8? What's behind 19?
