(audience cheers) Doug: Welcome back. Before we go, we want to play our extended version of the Cyber-Phone Match. And joining us on the phone is John Menjes. (audience cheers) John: Hi. Doug: Hi, John. We drew your name out of the hat. And already, you just won CY$500 -- and more could be on the way.
Doug: All nine members of the panel will play a Match Game question similar to one we would normally play in the main game. John, for each match you scores, you win an additional CY$100. Should you "run the table" and match everyone, I'll add a bonus of CY$1100 for a grand total of CY$2500. (audience cheers) Doug: After that, John, you'll will play one Head-To-Head Match question with one panelist for ten times your current cyber-cash score for a possible CY$25,000. So, let's start your road to riches with this... Did you hear about Bobby the Butcher? The other day, he backed into the meat grinder -- and got a little << BLANK >> in his orders. (think music plays) (light laughter from the crowd) (panel writes answers)
Doug: OK, they're ready, John. Question again. Did you hear about Bobby the Butcher? The other day, he backed into the meat grinder -- and got a little << BLANK >> in his orders. John: I'll say Bobby got a little BEHIND in his orders. (audience cheers) Doug: That's *the* answer. Let's start comparing answers starting with Jason way up there. Jason: Oh, those writers. (clears throat) (audience laughs) He got so BACKED up, that he got... +--------+ | BEHIND | | | +--------+ Jason: in his orders! (ding; audience applause) Doug: And just like that, you're up to CY$600. To Dana, now. Dana: Why, "rump roast" of course! (audience groans) (buzz) Doug: Darn. Well, no sweep -- but CY$25,000 could be won later. Tom, what say ye? Tom: You know, Doug, I thought on it a little bit and I finally caught on! The old noggin' still works... poor Bobby got a little... ---------- | BEHIND | ---------- Tom: ...in his orders. (ding; audience applause) Hey-ooo! Doug: Hey-ooo! Up to CY$700. We go to the middle row now and Dane. Dane: I was originally say "pain in the a**" but this is a family show, so I will say the next best thing - [RUMP ROAST] (buzz) Doug: Another rump roast. Chad, what did you come up with? Chad: The only thing coming to mind is... [SKIN] (buzz) Doug: OK, still at CY$700, John. Hey now, it's Jay, now. Jay: I thought that meatloaf tasted odd. It was filled with his [back hair]! (buzz) (audience groans) Doug: Oh, man, thought we'd get more behinds -- but not so much. Ryan? Ryan: Rump Roast (buzz) Doug: More rump roast. Does not match behind, though. Trusty Dusty? Dusty: I probably shouldn't confess that the first thing that popped into my mind was Sir Mixx-a-Lot's "Baby Got Back." +--------+ | RUMP | +--------+ (audience groans) (buzz) Doug: So close -- but not quite. And David, wrap this up for us. David: Someone call the health department! +--------+ | FINGER | +--------+ (buzz) Doug: No match there. Well, John, only two mat- -- huh? (judge tells Doug something about reversal of calls of mismatches) Doug: John, good news, the judge is reversing his decisions. Anyone who included "rump" in his answer matches John. (audience cheers)
BEHIND | RUMP ROAST | BEHIND
RUMP ROAST | SKIN | BACK HAIR
RUMP ROAST | RUMP | FINGERJohn's answer: BEHIND
Doug: Given the context of the question, had John been playing against another player, "behind" would have to match exactly. But he's playing against the house -- hence the relaxation of the rulings. OK, John, out of the kindness of the judge, you have a total of CY$1100 -- CY$500 we started you out with plus CY$600 for the six matches. Now, you'll play the Head-To-Head Match for ten times that 1100 -- or CY$11,000. Before you pick a star, we need to find out who's in our Cyber-Phone Match secret square. Because if you match the star in that secret square, the Head-To-Head Match will be worth CY$25,000. (audience cheers) Doug: The CY$1100 you already have will be unaffected -- but let's see if you'll play a CY$25,000 question. Odds are in your favor. Who's in that secret sqaure?
(secret square sfx; audience applause) Doug: It's Ryan. Great for you -- you'll play for 25K.
(audience cheers) Doug: John, now we go to the Head-To-Head Match. All you have to do is choose one star to help you. Who will it be? John: Ryan, please.
Doug: Very well. Now unlike the earlier leniency, the answers have to match exactly. Ryan has the magic marker in hand and is ready to right down his best answer to this...ABRAHAM_______ Doug: Abraham << BLANK >>. That's A-B-R-A-H-A-M. Abraham << BLANK >>. (MG-HSH Super Match think music plays)
(ding) Doug: And Ryan's ready with his answer. John, we await yours. For a grand total of CY$26,100, Abraham << BLANK >>. John: Gotta be Abraham Lincoln. (audience cheers) Doug: Abraham Lincoln. Now if Ryan here said "Lincoln", you win -- but you'll win in a unique way. I'll explain if we cross that bridge. Ryan, what say ye? Ryan: Well, Doug, there is only one answer... +=========+ | Lincoln | +=========+ (dings; MG-HSH music plays; audience applause)
Doug: There ya have it. CY$25,000 here, CY$1100 from earlier, total of CY$26,100. John: Yes! Thanks! Doug: Now, stay on the line because we'll take down your address. *Then*, instead of a check, we're sending an armored truck your way filled with 2,610,000 cyber-pennies. (audience laughs) Each with the likeness of Abe Lincoln. Enjoy and thanks for playing. (MG-HSH theme plays) Doug: Friends, that's going to wrap it up for today and for our year. 'Til we see you next time, make it a great time with family and friends, keep the faith, treasure your loved ones -- and meet us back here in the new year for more of the Net Match Game - Hollywood Squares Hour -- because if you miss out, you're << BLANKED >>.
