MG Round 3 Question A
(Doug grabs B) (fanfare sounds; audience cheers) Doug: Ah, and the Grand Question's been saved for last. (scans card) OK, the designated star on this question is Dane. Steve and Robert, you'll both have a chance to win a bonus of CY$1000 -- which doesn't apply to the score to the game. Match Dane, win the grand. Dane: No pressure. (audience laughs) Doug: You got it. Then, Robert, each match you score is worth CY$100 to your score, including Dane -- or CY$1000 for a clean sweep and the tie. Folks, last question in regulation before the Squares goes like this. 104-year-old Mr. Perrywinkle said, "I'll never understand the internet. In my day, a web site was created by a << BLANK >>." (audience laughs) (think music plays)
Doug: OK, they're all set. Robert, I'll take your answer first -- since this is your regular half of the round -- then I'll get Steve's answer. 104-year-old Mr. Perrywinkle said, "I'll never understand the internet. In my day, a web site was created by a << BLANK >>." Robert: I think I'm doomed, but thinking of the word "web", I'll say spider. (audience cheers) Doug: Well, they seem to like that answer. We turn to Steve now. You can agree with Robert's answer or go with something else. Steve: Spider (more cheers) Doug: (to Robert) Well, you matched your opponent. Make that's a sign. Dane, Robert needs a spider to stay in business. If you put down spider, each player racks up a CY$1000 bonus. Dane: A web site was created by one thing - and they seriously creep me out! [SPIDER]
(dings; MG-HSH shorter win music plays; audience applause) Doug: And that's a grand for each player. Congrats. In addition, Robert's on the scoreboard. Let's give him a triangle and a hundred.
(ding) Doug: All right. Now, you need to match everyone else to stay in the game. Chad, we go to you next. Chad: Come on, now! [SPIDER] (ding; audience applause) Doug: There's CY$200 for Robert. Jay? Jay: A [SPIDER]! (ding; audience applause) Doug: Three for three, now. Ryan, do you keep this drive alive for Robert? Ryan: (card) +========+ | Spider | +========+ (ding; audience applause) Doug: That's CY$400. Trusty Dusty, what say ye? Dusty: No doubt, THE definitive answer. +--------+ | SPIDER | +--------+ (ding; audience applause) Doug: That's CY$500. It all comes down to David... if David Hammond said "spider", we are going to a tie- breaker. Otherwise, Steve Michaels plays against the champ in Hollywood Squares. David, show and tell time. (David gets ready to duck and reveal his card) . . . . . . . . . . David: (card) +--------+ | SPIDER | +--------+ (ding) (audience cheers) Doug: Tie game!

Doug: (to Robert) And to think you were packing your bags for the Island of Consolation Prizes. (light laughter from the crowd)MG TIE-BREAKER BEGINS
