Earlier on The Big Risk, we learned Latvia spends $2189 a year, in American funds, to feed each dog in its security force. How much money per year does Latvia spend to feed each human soldier? Please respond in American dollars.
(time passes)
Lots of unusual guesses and the answer is -- well -- unusual in of itself.
Yup, $1282. They spend more for Fido than they do G.I. Joe. Latvian tax dollars at work, I suppose. Anyway, the closest is...
Eddie Timanus $3500...Eddie, welcome aboard. Completing our trio is...
Jay Cross $9287...Jay, even though he missed it by a couple of country miles. TBR's next.
====================================================================== Rich Jeffries: "Big Brother Spies On Julie Chen And Les Moonves" (audience laughs) will not be seen tonight. Instead, let's look in on the following. ======================================================================("A Little Less Conversation" plays)
Rich: Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to take The Big Risk.
(audience applause) (roll montage of games of chance from previous episodes)
Rich: From Studio 63, it's The Big Risk, a test of knowledge and a test of luck where tens of thousands of cyber-dollars can be won or lost on the turn of a card. And now, here's the star of our show, Doug Morris!
(Doug walks from behind The Big Risk board)
Doug: Thank you, Rich Jeffries. Hellooooooooo, everybody, and welcome to The Big Risk. Last time we were together, we crowned a new champion, he won a lot of cyber-money and is looking to defend his crown against two opponents. Here to introduce all three contenders is the lovely D.J. Hamilton.
(D.J. walks out wearing a red strapless dress) (audience cheers)
D.J.: Hi, Doug and helloooo (coughs) I can't do it like you.
Doug: Imitation *is* the sincerest form of flattery, ain't it?
D.J.: You're right. Let's say hello to the players. They are Player 1, our returning champion Erskine Thompson with CY$16,550; Player 2, Eddie Timanus and Player 3, Jay Cross.
