Doug: Oh man -- no help here at all.
ROBERT ED JAMES ![]()

Doug: A nickel for Robert. Ed's assured of last place going into the Poker Run; Robert will be second with one free letter. James, this amounts to a free ride on the screen.

Doug: You'll have at least two free letters just before the Poker Run starts. But if you can make four of a kind or a straight flush, you'll have more than 100 points and three free letters. A royal flush gives you more than 1000 points, four free letters and -- uh -- oh yeah, CY$1,000,000.
Doug: If you end up with something less than a pair of Queens, you'll just lose five points -- but still have the lead before the Poker Run. Now, before you draw five cards, tell us about yourself.
James: I am James Greek, I am from East LA, As in Eastern Lower Alabama. I enjoy game shows, music, classic TV, and girls, and riding jet skis. And, collecting TV Guides.
Doug: Ahhh, yes, I'm familiar with Lower Alabama. I have friends in and around Mobile. That and I've visited Enterprise. Nice town. Five numbers, please.
James: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
Doug: Numbers 2 through 6 comin' right up.

Doug: Yes, some potential. A pair of Aces and a pair of Kings. Other ways to look at this: You're 3/5 of the way toward a spaded royal flush and 2/5 of the way toward a royal in hearts.
How do you play it?
James: I'll get rid of the hearts and keep the spades.
Doug: All right, which two numbers do you think hide the Queen and 10 of Spades?
James: 13 and 21
Doug: All right...
if
thirteen
and
twenty-
one
hide
the
Ace
and
Queen
of
Spades,
not
necessarily
respectively,
you'll
win
one
million
cyber-
dollars.
What's
behind
thirteen
and
twenty-
one?

Doug: The good news for you, James, is you're maintain your lead as we start the Poker Run.

Doug: In a three-player Poker Run, our contestants will race to collect letters in the word "POKER". Our two top players in points get a head start.
ROBERT ED JAMES ![]()
![]()
![]()
Doug: James, for having the most points, you'll receive two free letters. Robert, for placing second, you get one free letter. Ed, no free letters, I'm afraid -- but anything's possible.
Each time you chime in and correctly finish an analogy, you score one letter. The first to collect all five letters in "POKER" wins the round and up to CY$7500.
Hands back on the buzzers, please -- because the Poker Run starts -- NOW!
Jay Leno is to Burger King as Jimmy Fallon is to...
Doug: Ed.
Ed: McDonalds.
Doug: No, we were looking for Capital One. We're comparing a late night talk show host to the company he appears in commercials for. Robert, James, this next one's just for you.
Romeo is to Montague as Juliet is to...
Doug: Robert.
Robert: Capulet.
Doug: That's right. All three are back in for this.
Kleenex is to tissue as Cuisinart is to...
Doug: James.
James: Kitchen appliances.
ROBERT ED JAMES ![]()

![]()
Doug: We'll accept. We were looking for, specifically, a food processor. But Cuisinart is a brand name connected with other kitchen appliances. James is two away from victory, Robert three away, Ed needs all five.
Men are to misandry as women are to...
Doug: Ed.
Ed: Misogyny.
Doug: That's right. We're comparing genders to the hatred of the particular gender. Misogynists hate women; misandrists hate men.
John Joseph Patrick Ryan is to Jack Lord as Alexander O'Lachlan is to...
Doug: James.
James: Alexander O'Loughlin
