Doug: And we're back with the Net Match Game - Hollywood Squares Hour
and our current top seed in the tournament of champions, Robert McBride.

Robert, for matching the second most popular answer in the audience match
earlier, you won CY$500 and now...

 
(ding)

Doug: ...we seed the bank with CY$500.  You know how this works.  

 

Doug: Four of our stars have been secretly assigned the number 20,
four others a 30 and one has the 50.  Pick a star, he or she will
reveal the hidden number and we'll then multiply the CY$500 by that
hidden number to determine the value of the head-to-head question.
Who do you turn to this time?

Robert: Let's try Chico this time.

 

 
Doug: All right.  Chico, before you pull the tab, congratulations to
you and everyone at "We Love To Interrupt" on 300 episodes.  

   (audience cheers)

Doug: It's always a real treat at www.gameshownewsnet.com.  Now please
reveal the number.

 
(ding)

Doug: A 30 -- times 500 means...

 
(ding)    

Doug: ...CY$15,000. (audience applause)  Certainly a nice way to ice
the cake.  Robert, Chico, as you know, we *have* to have exact matches.
Misspellings are OK as long as it's "close enough".  Here's the question
for 15-grand. 

SANTA ______, CALIFORNIA

  

Doug: Santa << BLANK >>, California.  Santa << BLANK >>, California.  

(MG-HSH Super Match think music plays)

(Doug lets Robert look at the card as Chico writes down his answer)

 
(ding)

Doug: And Chico's ready.  Hope you are -- because the time has come
to call for your answer.  For CY$15,000, Santa << BLANK >>, California.

Robert: BARBARA.

(audience cheers)

Doug: Could you get a little more excited about this?  (audience laughs)
Let's turn to the chairman.  Chico, for CY$15,000, Robert's hoping you
came up with Santa Barbara, California.

Chico: I don't know if you know this -- but I'm from Monterey, California,
which is close to Santa Cruz, California.  (a few groans from the crowd)
Which is exactly why I happened to write Santa...
 
(flipped) BARBARA
 
Chico: ... California! 

  
(dings; MG-HSH music plays; audience applause)

Doug: Got it, my man.  (MG-HSH theme plays) We're a little short on
time, let's find out where the 50 was, please.

 

  

(ding)

Doug: Our Air Force beauty, Tammy, had the big five-oh.  (Ryan hurries
to center stage) Robert, congratulations on winning a grand total of
a nice round CY$118,000.

(audience cheers)

CY$118,000

  
Doug: Of course, we have more games yet to play.  That score of 118-grand
isn't necessarily a lock for top seed honors -- but it's going to be
awfully hard to topple.  Robert, we'll see you again at tourney time.

Ryan: Thanks to all our stars for another great episode.  We'll have
three new players next time.

Doug: 'Til then, make it a great day, keep the faith, treasure your
loved ones and join us for the next NMG-HSH or else you're << BLANKED >>.

Ryan: I agree.

(more cheers)
