[Due to a screw-up on my part, Oronde's playing the Cyber-Phone Match.

-DM]

 

Doug: Welcome back to the Net On The Cover - Headline Chasers Hour.

(audience laughs)  Before we move onward in this game, we want to give

someone on the internet a chance at CY$5000 in the Cyber-Phone Match.

And that someone is Oronde Jarrata.



(audience cheers)



Oronde: Hi everyone.



Doug: Hi, Oronde.  As always, we'll give you CY$500 just for playing

the Cyber-Phone Match.  Now, which star do you want to team up with

for a CY$5000 payoff?



Oronde: Barry Brooks Please and well what the heck...Barry Barry Barry!!



(light laughter from the crowd)



Doug: Barry Barry Barry it is.  And here's the question for five-grand...

PAT_________

Doug: Pat << BLANK >>.  That's P-A-T << BLANK >>.  Pat << BLANK >>. 



(MG '76 Super Match think music plays)

 

(ding) 



Doug: OK, Oronde, for CY$5000, what do you think Barry wrote down for

"Pat << BLANK >>".



Oronde: Pat..Pat...hmmms Pat white..no..er..that's vanna for white..i 

say Pat Sajak.



(audience cheers)



Doug: Well, it would make sense for the Net WoF host to write down

"Pat Sajak".  Barry, if that's what you wrote down, Oronde's CY$5000

richer.



Barry: (shakes head; shows card) Morita

 

Doug: Woah! (buzz; audience groans; TPiR losing horns)  Well, that

was a surprise.  But then again, as Chris Berman reminds us, "That's

why they play the games."  Oronde, you've CY$500 headed your way.

Nice hand for Oronde, everyone.  



(audience applause)  (Doug pushes button revealing Round 2 questions)

 

 

Doug: OK, let's see if we can break this dry spell and record some

matches.  Gus, since Kourtney picked first in Round 1, you get to

pick first in Match Game's Round 2.



Gus: I'll pick A.

 

 

Doug: (grabs A; walks to panel) Going with A.  Every star plays

this one since Gus didn't score any matches earlier...

104-year-old Mr. Perriwinkle said... (Doug grunts and groans) 



(audience laughs and applauds)



"We just got a new TV at the home. To save on energy costs, we put 

<< BLANK >> in the TV to make it work."



(MG '7x changing keys think music plays)

 

 

 

Doug: OK, we're all set.  Gus, let's see if you can strike first...



104-year-old Mr. Perriwinkle said, "We just got a new TV at the home. 

To save on energy costs, we put << BLANK >> in the TV to make it work."



Gus: Insulation?



(a few claps and a few boos from the crowd)



Doug: Well, some in the audience like that answer, others don't.

Of course what really matters is how the answer rated with the stars.

Robert, we start with you.



Robert: Remember my appearance as a contestant, Doug? 



Doug: Ah, yes.  You're one of few netgame hosts to play as a civilian 

here.



Robert: In this case TV, we need to put a little....

GASOLINE

...in your tank!



(buzz) (smattering of applause)



Doug: Well, it's not my tank, it's Mr. Perrywinkle's.  Anyhoo, on

to Jay.



Jay: If it were Dumb Donald, I's say he used batteries to save 

energy costs but Old Man Perriwinkle used

Doug: *That's* what I was thinking.  Martin, over to you.



Martin: How about 'hot water'?



(buzz)



Doug: Want to watch old movies?  Just add water.  Over to

Ryan.  104-year-old Mr. Perriwinkle said, "We just got a new 

TV at the home.  To save on energy costs, we put << BLANK >> 

in the TV to make it work."  And Gus said "insulation".



Ryan: The only thing I could think of was...

(buzz)



Doug: Coin-operated TV?  Eh, stands to reason.  Barry?



Barry: I can't come up with anything for this one...I'll say Ovaltine.



(buzz)



Doug: More Ovaltine, please.  And Nancy, last chance to give Gus some

insulation.



Nancy: I think I get it...Migrant workers.



(buzz) (audience laughs and applauds)



Doug: Do I detect a little Patti Deutsch ingenuity with that answer?

Well, anyhoo...

Gus' response: INSULATION

 

 

Doug: Well, Gus, remember, you've got one more shot at it.  Kourtney,

here's yours.
