MG tie-BREAKER

 

 

Doug: Now, we've got a new way of breaking ties here on NMG-HSH.
It starts with our stars writing down answers to this tie-breaker
question.  Stars, the tie-break question is "Amazon << BLANK >>".  
(panelists write down their responses)  Now, Oronde and JX, while
they write down their responses, please look at your secret screens.  
Those of you watching us at home will get to see this, too.

AMAZON______

1	RIVER
2	.com
3	WOMAN
4	RAIN FOREST

Doug: There's the tie-breaker question again.  "Amazon << BLANK >>".
Below that question, you see four different answers that fill in
the blank.  You'll each pick one answer.  Then, we'll check the 
answers from the panel.  Each time a celebrity matches your answer,
you score a point.  Player with more points at the end of the 
tie-breaker wins Match Game, CY$500 for winning the game and the
right to play Hollywood Squares against Andy Geller.  Oronde, since
you went first in Round 1, you get to pick first.  Please lock in 
an answer -- #1, #2, #3 or #4.

Oronde: Doug, my man, I pick  number 4.  (presses the #4 button
on keypad)

 

 

(ding)

Doug: OK, thank you.  JX, please select from the remaining three.

JX: (presses #1)

 

 

(ding)

Doug: Number 1 for you.  Thank you.  Now, as we wait for the stars 
to finish writing, keep in mind with the quirks of the rules, four 
points will automatically send you to Hollywood Squares.

 

 

 

 

Doug: All right, the stars are set.  Brian, how did you fill in
that blank?  "Amazon << BLANK >>."

Brian: RIVER

 

 

(ding)

Doug: That's one point for JX.  He picked "River".  Jay Lewis,
your answer please.

Jay: RAINFOREST

 

 

(ding)

Doug: That's Oronde's answer.  Now that you know what matches,
Will, did you say Rain Forest or River?

Will: River

 

 

(ding)

Doug: Two points for JX, one point still for Oronde.  Ryan,
your answer please for "Amazon << BLANK >>".

Ryan: Women

Doug: Not a match.  Still two to one in JX's favor.  Tammy.

Tammy: I was torn between two, so I said AMAZON PRINCESS.  That's 
Wonder Woman for you laymen.

Doug: Gotcha.  *Still* two to one in JX's favor...

Oronde,

if

Alan

Timper

said

"Rain

Forest",

you'll

stay

in

the

game

and

force

another

tie-

breaker.

Otherwise,

Jay

Cross

goes

to

Hollywood

Squares.

Alan?



Alan: RIVER

Doug: And JX wins it in a comeback!

 

 

RIVER | RAINFOREST | RIVER
WOMEN | PRINCESS | RIVER

Oronde's response: RAIN FOREST
JX's response: RIVER

 

 

 
(JX and Oronde shake hands)

Doug: Jay, come on over here and stand on the blue dot.  Oronde, I 
thought "Rain Forest" would be a winner, too.  You played a great game.
You'll still take home the CY$1000 you accumulated in game play.
There's more prizes backstage.  Thanks for playing and thanks for 
being a fan of our show.  Oronde Jarrata, everyone.  

(audience cheers) (MG desks and toaster roll toward stage left)
