MG Round 2 Question A
Doug: Well, on the one hand, I'm surprised more batmobiles didn't come up. On the other, I'm glad you got CY$300 out of them Barry. Kyle, now you get a chance to pick up some cyber-cash. Let's see how you do with A.
Doug: (grabs A; walks to panel) Ryan Morris said, ... Ryan: (chuckles along with audience) Oh, no, now what have you done? Doug: I actually think you'll like this one. Pick it up from where it reads, "Ryan Morris said,". Ryan: I said, "I had a team of Net Hot Potato 2000 challengers that was SOOO dumb..." (points to audience) Everyone else in unison: HOW DUMB WERE THEY?!?!? Ryan: "...they actually thought they were trying to win << BLANK >> instead of cyber-cash."(J! think music plays)Doug: Thanks, Ryan Morris everyone. (audience applause) (Note: Ryan no longer hosts NHP...so, please don't ask Ryan or I about getting on NHP...because we can't help you there. -Doug)
Doug: All right, Kyle, let's see if you can rack up some moolah. Ryan Morris said, "I had a team of Net Hot Potato 2000 challengers that was SOOO dumb, they actually thought they were trying to win << BLANK >> instead of cyber-cash." Kyle: I think I got a good one here, I'll say French fries. (audience applause) Doug: That *is* a good one. We'll see how you do with the stars. Randy, he's looking for some fries to go. Randy: Since I'm lactose intolerant, I'll skip the sour cream and just give you CHIVES (buzz) Doug: Not a bad answer. No match there. Jay, Kyle's looking for french fries. Jay: They thought they'd win +----------+ | | | POTATOES | | | +----------+ Doug: Fries and potatoes... (pause) (buzz) ...don't match. (audience boos) Now now now, potatoes can be served fried, baked and a few other ways. This is a general vs. specific mismatch. Kelly, what did you think the dumb NHP2K players were winning. Kelly: Dumb hot POTATO players would, of course think they were playing for CHIPS! Doug: Hmm, now this is interesting beca... (buzz) ...well I guess not. I was about to mention "chips" in Britain is fries in the US. But, since we're in North America, "chips" is interpreted as Pringles and such. (audience boos) Now now now, one more boo and Randy's taking away your Krispy Kremes. (audience laughs) Sorry, Kyle, I get the feeling if Sanner wrote down "British chips" the judge would match it. Anyway, let's see if you can match the expert opinion of Net Hot Potato 2000 host Ryan Morris. What say ye? Ryan: (turns to the crowd) You people in the audience did your part so well that I am going to take you all out for some..... +------------+ | Steak & | | Baked | | Potatoes | +------------+ (buzz) (audience cheers) Doug: Hey Ryan, we may have to talk to the VBS promotions department -- but I think they can spring for gift certificates to *Ryan's* Steakhouse. (audience laughs) Over to David. David: (looks at Doug and remembers his last remark) What kind of operation do you think I run from the Borderbound studios? It's a family company!!! (audience laughs) Doug: Well, sorry 'bout that. But, I hear VBS is looking to fill some late night hours. So, might wanna call the programming department a buzz. (audience laughs) David: Seriously though, those contestants sound so dumb, they thought that they were playing for ------------- + REAL CASH + ------------- instead of cyber cash!!!! (buzz) (audience cheers) Doug: Now *that's* a good thought. Ryan: Good thought indeed. Doug: (turns to Ryan) I remember the blurb you have on the NHP2K site -- "If you think your going to win some cash or prizes, from this game, GET A LIFE!" Well, Kyle, given Noiel's streak of rotten answers, I don't think you're gon... Noiel: Not so fast, Mr. Take A Guess And Say "People Who've Never Been In My Kitchen" In Net Tribond! +====================+ | A SUPER SIZE ORDER | | OF MCDONALDS | | FRENCH FRIES | +====================+ (ding; audience applause) Doug: Well how ya like that? Kyle's on the board after all. Let's recap the answers, shall we?CHIVES | POTATOES | CHIPS
STEAK/BKD.POTATO. | REAL CASH |...McD'S...FRIES
Doug: All right gang, two rounds are in the books. Barry's still leading. But will he be able to say that after the third and final round? Or will Kyle come back from behind and face Eddie in Hollywood Squares. We'll get some answers after this. (audience applauds; MG-HSH music plays)MG ROUND 3 BEGINS
