Glenn: If you'd like tickets to see the Net Match Game - Hollywood
Squares Hour, forget it!
(audience laughs and applauds)
Doug: Thanks, Glenn, I think. Welcome back to our grand finale of
the Net Match Game - Hollywood Squares Hour.


Doug: And here they are -- our top three winners for our final season,
Cassie Hikari, Evan Hatfield and Gio Montagnino.
(audience cheers)
Doug: Now, normally, this would mean a Champions' Special. But as
we alluded to earlier, we don't have time to play that tournament.
So, instead, we play what we'll call a Champions' Playoff. And here's
how it will work.
First of all, we're going to put away all the loot you won in a safe
place -- and spot each of you CY$100 for this playoff.


(ding)
Doug: Now, we tried something similar a few years back. We'll try this
one more time -- a tribute to "Match Game '90's" Match-Up round.
All three of our players will be shown a short fill-in-the-blank question
with three possible answer. Each player will secretly lock in an answer
to that question. Two or all three players may lock in the same answer.
Doug: Once answers are locked in, we'll go to one of our stars and offer
him or her the same three answers. Jason plays the first question,
Dana plays the second question, Gordon the third, Brian the fourth --
and so on down to Mystic Girl for the ninth and final question.
Each match adds an additional CY$100 to your score. The player with
the highest score after nine questions plays one final head-to-head
match -- for a possible CY$1,000,000.
(audience cheers)
Doug: Good luck to all and away we go. We start with Jason and this
qusetion for the panel. << BLANK >> Park.

(dings; MG-HSH win music plays; audience applause)
Doug: Stand by -- because that could lead to a payoff of CY$800,000.
Before we go any further, Glenn, I believe you have something nice for
each of our playoff champs.
(MG-HSH theme plays)
Glenn: That's right, our players in the Champions' Playoff have each
won an SUV/camper. (audience cheers) Rough it in style with this Nissan
Roadtrek N6 Active. It's great for your next trip to the campgrounds,
the racetrack, the beach or anywhere you'd like. It comfortably sleeps
five people -- and come with a kitchenette, a TV set and much much more.
A fantastic prize worth CY$74,500.
(more cheers)
Doug: So let us crunch some big numbers.


Doug: Cassie, you're going home with winnings that total CY$251,100.
Evan, I think getting that SUV/camper was worth coming back for.
You've got that plus your other winnings here and the cyber-cash you
won in the earlier games for a total of CY$226,700.
Thank you, Cassie and Evan.
(audience cheers)
