MG Round 2 Question A

 

 

Doug: Welcome back.  We're about to start Round 2.  Before we do, I wanted
to let you know about a special tournament we're going to have here on
NMG-HSH later this summer.   Two of our biggest winners of all time will 
play against the Texas Instruments TI-99/4A home computer.

(audience laughs and applauds)

Doug: If I were you, I'd bet against the computer.  Let's take a moment 
and meet our challengers.  Let's start with our leader so far, Dom Falance.

Dom: Well Doug, I'm originally from Kingman, Arizona; I now live in Boise,
Idaho. I've been a fan of Game Shows all my life, and have been a fan of 
the VBS network for about a decade. This is my first netgame, and I'm a 
little nervous here, but I wanna have a good time and hopefully pick up 
that fifty large.

Doug: Well, hey, you're doing well so far.  Thanks for watching all these
years, by the way.  And I've never been to Boise -- but I hear it's a
lovely city and I know it's a great control word.

(audience laughs)

Doug: Andy, a word or two about you, please.

Andy: I'm Andy Silikovitz, 42 and single from West Orange, New Jersey,
where I've lived for thirty-five years. I work as a Torah reader in 
Montclair, New Jersey.

Doug: All right, well you're down a little bit here -- but the night
is still young.

(Doug pushes button on toaster revealing Round 2 questions)

 

 

Doug: OK, Round 2 starts with you, Dom, since you're leading.  A or B?

Dom: A.

Doug: (grabs A) Going with A.

(fanfare sounds; audience cheers) 

Doug: Ayyyyyy, Grand Question time.  Here's the deal.  Dom and Andy,
you'll each play for a CY$1000 bonus, which doesn't apply to the
score of the game.  And then, Dom, you'll still play for CY$100
a match which will apply to the score of the game.

 

Doug: (walks to panel as he opens card) And if Dom or Andy matches
Tom Hornikel on this question, we pay CY$1000 to either -- or perhaps
both players.

Shawn, by the way, per the normal scoring of the game, you'll sit this
one out since you matched Dom earlier.  Here now -- our Grand Question.

Mrs. Cleaver said to Mr. Cleaver, "Ward, I'm *really* worried about 
the Beaver.  He just brought << BLANK >> home." 

(audience laughs) (think music plays)

 

Doug: Oh, I think we're going to have fun with this one.  Dom,
this is your question -- so I'll go to you first and then I'll
take Andy's answer.

Mrs. Cleaver said to Mr. Cleaver, "Ward, I'm *really* worried about 
the Beaver.  He just brought << BLANK >> home." 

Dom: Well Doug, I can think of only one person that would give 
the Beav's parents a bit of grief.  Eddie Haskell.

(audience laughs and applauds)

Doug: Alway the least likely to suspect.  Andy, your answer.

Andy: His fiancee.

(audience groans) 

Doug: We might run into a generic vs. specific mismatch on that
one.  OK, let's go to Tom since he was randomly designated as
the star for this Grand Question.  Tom, did you write down
Eddie or "his fiancee"?

Tom: I went for the road of least resistance...

(*( Eddie Haskell )*)

Doug: And that's a grand for Dom!

 

 

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

Doug: OK, that thousand doesn't count toward the score.  That's just
a sidebar bonus.  Better news, we still give you credit for matching Tom in 
the regular score of the game.

 

 

(ding)

Doug: So you're now CY$200 to the good for matching Tom here and Shawn in
Round 1.  Now, we'll pick it back up with Troy over here.  Still going for
an additional CY$100 per match.  Troy?

Troy: I think Mr. and Mrs. Cleaver would be realllllly worried if he brought --

[LUMPY]

(audience laughs)  (buzz)

Doug: Another "Whodathunkit?" answer.  Chad?

Chad: He's taking his name a bit too literally. He wants to get his dam built, 
so he brought home a load of...

[WOOD]

(buzz) (audience laughs) 

Doug: Now that was a dam good response.

(more groans) 

Doug: Made worse by my pun.  No one's come to my answer, by the way, as we
visit Ryan Morris.  Mrs. Cleaver said to Mr. Cleaver, "Ward, I'm *really* 
worried about the Beaver.  He just brought << BLANK >> home."  Dom said
that rascal, Eddie Haskell.  You say?

Ryan M.: The great Gene Rayburn always said, "Put down the first thing 
that pops into your head..."

(audience laughs)  (buzz)

Doug: Two same sex relationships, wood and now cross-dressing.  
Ryan Vickers, what do you bring to the table?

Ryan V.: Beaver hasn't really been thinking much these days, Doug.  He 
brought home:

+-----------+
|  LINDSAY  |
|  LOHAN    |
+-----------+

(audience laughs)  (buzz)

Doug: The double-L.  The way I saw it, June was worried about the Beav
becoming a druggie -- after he brought marijuana home.  

(a few groans; a few laughs from the crowd)

Doug: Which explains why Dom's our leader and I'm not.

(audience laughs)

 

LUMPY | WOOD | EDDIE HASKELL
A DRESS | LINDSEY LOHAN | (match in R1)

Dom's answer: EDDIE HASKELL
Andy's answer: HIS FIANCEE

 

 

Doug: Dom, CY$200 plus the bonus of a grand.  Andy, you've got lots
of nothing.  Here comes a chance to turn nothing into something.
