Doug: ...thanks in part to "The Apprentice".  OK, Michael, you're
now up to CY$81,000 and now you have a chance at the head-to-head
match.  Because you won CY$500 from the audience match...

(ding)

Doug: ...it means we seed the head-to-head bank with 500.  Time
now for you to pick a star to match head-to-head...

 

 

Doug: ...four of our stars have the number 20, four others have the
number 30, one has the elusive five-oh.  Your selected star's
multiplier will determine how much higher the bank will grow and
determine the value of this head-to-head question.  So, pick a star,
please.

Michael: Even though I didn't take his answer for the SuperMatch, 
I will still pick Mark Sinsabaugh.

Doug: Mark, you're the chosen one.  Michael's going to play for
CY$500 times what?

(ding)

Doug: Twenty.  Meaning you get to play for CY$10,000.

(ding; audience applause)

Doug: Michael and Mark, as you know, we need an exact match.  
Spelling doesn't count and rarely will we except singular 
for plural.  Otherwise, we gotta call it a mismatch.  
Michael, face me please and Mark, please put pen to card 
on this question...

LOS ANGELES_______

Doug: Los Angeles << BLANK >>.  L-O-S, Los; A-N-G-E-L-E-S, Angeles;
<< BLANK >>.   Los Angeles << BLANK >>.

(MG '76 Super Match think music plays)

(Mark starts to write his response)
 
(Mark pauses, looks over toward Jay's desk)
 
(Mark writes some more)
 
(Mark pauses, then sticks card in slot)

(ding)

Doug: OK, Michael.  Mark finally reached an answer.  We now 
call for yours.  For CY$10,000, how do you fill in this blank?
Los Angeles << BLANK >>.

Michael: Geez louise, there's gotta be a lot of answers to this. 
I will say CALIFORNIA.

(audience applause)

Doug: OK, California's your answer.  Indeed there are lots of
ways to play this.  

Mark,

for

ten-

thousand

cyber-

dollars,

Michael's

hoping

you

wrote

down

"California"

as

your

final

answer.


Mark: I'm sorry, Michael.  I said (flip) *** LAKERS ***

(buzz; audience groans; TPiR losing horns)

Doug: Los Angeles Lakers.  Oh, well.  What were some other goodies?

(lots of folks say "Dodgers")

Doug: Dodgers, yeah.  

(some dingbat says "Clippers")

Doug: Clippers?  Uhhhh, I think we need to outlaw the two-drink
minimum here.  (audience laughs)  Well, before we take a break, let's
see who had the magic 50.

 

 

(ding)

Doug: The Ryan Express did.  Well, Michael, you are literally on the
doorstep of the champions' special.  We'll take a break, come back
and sort out the possibilities here on NMG-HSH.  

(audience applauds; MG-HSH music plays)
