Doug: Questions in this round are now worth CY$100 each. Good luck and let's play...
What cleanser was the first product to use animated characters in its TV commercials?

Doug: Next question...
Fill in the blank: In the '60s and '70s, Crazy Foam was billed as "the toy that << BLANK >>."
(time passes) (buzz)
Doug: It was the toy that cleans. OK, let's try a football question.

(audience applause) (bells ring)
Doug: And time's up in this half of the round. Kourtney leads with 600. Chris and Matt are tied with 400 each. Let's see if we can convert those hundreds into thousands. Time to visit D.J. and Harry at The Big Risk board.
D.J.: Thanks, Doug. Dirty Harry randomly selected the theme for tonight's Five-Card Risk. And it is...
D.J.: ...Any Spade Loses. During the break, he shuffled a deck of 54 playing cards -- with two Jokers -- and placed the first five cards of the deck accordingly behind the numbered spaces.
In a moment, you'll place a bet on the first card. So long as it's not a Spade, the payoff is 1-to-1. You'll then have the option to freeze and protect your winnings -- or risk and try to double what you just doubled.
Anytime we turn over a Spade or Joker, the round is over and you lose whatever cyber-cash you have at risk.
Doug: Thanks, Deej. Since we spotted you guys CY$100 each and the questions were worth CY$100 each, the minimum bet is CY$100. Max bet is all in and you still have to wager in CY$50 multiples. Good luck and place your bets.

CY$200Doug: OK, and we're all set. The champ bets 300 and each challenger has wagered 200. Remember, we don't want to see any spades -- because they lose. What's that first card?

Doug: Four of Spades -- a loser. Oh, mercy.

Doug: Well, that unfortunate turn of the card made things mighty interesting. Only CY$300 separate first from third place. (("A Little Less Conversation" plays) Final round features CY$200 questions and a final risk where each player will have to risk at least 200. Who's going to the Lucky 7 Playoff? We'll find out after this.
