MG Round 2 Question A

 

 

Doug: (grabs A; walks to panel)  Once again, all on the panel get to
play this.


Entertainment reporter Roma Garrett said, "I'm hearing a rumor Charlie Sheen
will be starring in a sequel to 'Drag Me To Hell'.  Rumor  has it in this movie,
instead of winning, he'll be << BLANKING >>."

(audience laughs)  (think music plays) 

Doug: Everyone's almost done.  Chad's finishing up.  Likewise David --
aannnddd...

 

Doug: ...they're ready.  Rick, query again.

Entertainment reporter Roma Garrett said, "I'm hearing a rumor Charlie Sheen
will be starring in a sequel to 'Drag Me To Hell'.  Rumor  has it in this movie,
instead of winning, he'll be << BLANKING >>."

Rick: Losing.

(a few laughs; smattering of applause)

Doug: Eh, makes sense.  But if you think about it -- there's a *REALLY* good
answer.  Philip, start us off as we compare answers.

Philip: I'm a Christian!  (card) [SINNING!]

(buzz) (audience cheers)

Doug: I'm a Christian, too -- and that's the definitive answer.  Instead
of winning, he's -- ya know -- sinning!  Chad, what came to your mind?

Chad: Sounds like he'll be...

[DUH, BURNING!]

(buzz) (audience laughs and applauds)

Doug: Another good answer.  Mark, over to you now.

Mark: He'd still claim he's winning.  No...I said he would be 

(card) BURNING

(buzz) (audience applause)

Doug: More burning -- but no losing.  Over to Ryan now.  Entertainment 
reporter Roma Garrett said, "I'm hearing a rumor Charlie Sheen will be 
starring in a sequel to 'Drag Me To Hell'.  Rumor has it in this movie,
instead of winning, he'll be losing."  That according to Rick. What
according to you?

Ryan: I have to admit I've never seen this movie. I'm not into 
horror movies. So the best answer I could come up with is...

+=========+
| Cursing |
+=========+

(buzz) (smattering of applause)

Doug: Ryan, I'm with ya.  Horror movies aren't my cup of tea, either.
Cursing's not a bad answer -- especially if Charlie does a lot of 
cursing. To Dean now.

Dean: He just had a roast, so it makes sense...

  +----------+
  | ROASTING |
  +----------+

(buzz) (audience laughs and applauds)

Doug: Ahhh, clever.  I like that.  David, last chance for a match in 
this round. Rick's counting on you.

David: Get the boos ready.....

+-----------+
| BE KILLED |
+-----------+

(buzz) (audience boos)

Doug: Been studying the Patti Deutsch technique, I see.  

(a few laughs from the crowd)

 

SINNING | DUH, BURNING | BURNING
CURSING | ROASTING | BE KILLED

Rick's answer: LOSING

 

 

Doug: Well -- if anything good's coming out of this, all six stars
play both questions in Round 3.  Come back and see if we get *any*
matches -- (audience laughs)-- after this.

(audience applause; MG-HSH music plays)
