_____SCOTT GREAT GEORGE C. DEBRALEE (dings; audience applause; MG-HSH win music plays) Doug: Good one! CY$1000 for you. And now we head for the head-to-head match. Since you racked up a grand in this first half of the endgame, we'll deposit a grand in the head-to-head bank.
(ding) Doug: Just like that. And now it's time to team up with a star.
Doug: Four of them have the number 20, four others a 30, one has a 50. You want to pick someone you're in sync with -- but at the same time you want to find the star who has your ticket to a possible CY$50,000 win. Pick a star, he'll reveal his multiplier and that will determine how many thousands of cyber-bucks you'll play for on one question. JX: I'll go with Jason. Doug: Jason Antoniewicz. You came through for him in winning a thousand. What's at stake now? Pull the tab and we get the answer.
(ding) Doug: Twenty-thousand.
(ding; audience applause) Doug: JX and Jason, as you are well aware, we need an exact match with this much on the line. Spelling doesn't count and rarely will we except singular for plural. Otherwise, we gotta call it a mismatch. JX, face me please and Jason, please put pen to card on this question...
_______SANDDoug: << BLANK >> Sand. That's S-A-N-D. << BLANK >> Sand. (MG '76 Super Match think music plays)
(ding) Doug: All right, champ. Jason's ready. Hope you're ready. Because if you match him exactly, it's CY$20,000 more. << BLANK >> Sand. JX: QUICK Sand (audience cheers) Doug: Excellent thought. Not only is "Quick" a great answer, "Quick" also describes how long Fred Scott's popularity lasted. (audience laughs) But I digress... Jason, Jay Cross is hoping you're on the same wavelength with him. Because if you wrote down "Quick" for "<< BLANK >> Sand", he's richer by twenty- thousand cyber- dollars. What did you think? Jason: I've quoted Christopher Lloyd and now I quote Steve Edwards. Get...Rich... +=======+ | QUICK | | | +=======+

Doug: Got it! We'll add everything up in a moment. But, I'll tell you now, JX, if you win the next game of HS, that will be your third win and you'll qualify for the champions' special. Also, if you can break that CY$55,000 secret square jackpot, you'll crack CY$100,000 in winnings and *that* will get you in the champions' special. Right now, let's see who had the big five-oh?
(ding) Doug: Nolan Slover had the mucho dinero. OK, JX, we can now tell you, that your winnings on NMG-HSH total...
(ding) Doug: ...CY$81,000. (audience cheers) That's 19-grand or one HS game win away from the champions' special. We'll see if it happens next time. Meantime, we're giving a lucky home viewer a shot at CY$20,000 as we remember the premiere of the original MG-HSH series -- which occured 20 years ago this Halloween. We'll play the special 20-grand anniversary cyber-phone match after this.
