Episode 3 Last time on “Duel”, we were working with this board...
…. And we were playing with Robert the used car salesman and Johnny the rocker on this question...
… but we didn’t get an answer. We’ll have it right now. The correct answer… A! Johnny stays and leads, 8-7. Jackpot is now up to $495,000.
Robert will continue in this duel… but so will Johnny. Correct: C. Johnny leads, 6-4. Vermont only has five Starbucks. And we are over half a mill.
Robert knows this for sure. It is 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 = B. We’re tied at 4, and the jackpot gets $10,000.
If it’s B, Robert wins. If it’s C, Johnny wins. Otherwise, the game continues. Correct answer… A. We play on tied at 2. Harry made $4.5 billion to date with two films to go.
If it’s West Virginia, we play on with Robert leading 2-1. If it’s North Carolina, Johnny wins. Correct: B. We play on with Robert leading, 2-1.
If it’s B or D, we go to Shootout. If it’s C, Robert wins. If it’s A... we’re tied at 1. Correct… C! Robert wins another $5000, and we have a new person on the board.
Unfortunately, Denise is out
of the running. Robert moves into the number one seat with another
victory against… Paul, a carpenter from Chicago OR… Tom, an Air Force
Major from Marion, OH, OR... Pat, the software engineer from Dayton, OH.
Getting chips off the table and into the pot. Correct: B. $30,000 into the pot and we play on.
If it’s 15 or 16, we move on. Answer… D. Eight arms and eight schools. $20,000 goes into the pot.
Paul thought of the country’s arc. After the break... correct answer... D! Robert is #1 with another $15,000 to show for it. The northwest angle in Minnesota is above the 49th parallel. Check the board out.
And it gets better. If
Robert wins the next duel, then he will get an automatic berth in the
Sunday final. This is a big duel. Choose your opponent wisely from...
Emily, a belly dancer from Boston, Ken an alligator wrestler from
Orlando, and Tammy the college administrator from Winston-Salem, NC.
“You have all the time you need, unless Robert presses you… and he does. You have seven seconds, max.” Okay, let’s count. Four new states, two north states, two south states, an island, and a west state. Someone’s going home right now. And it’s… Robert. Correct answer is C. Emily wins $45,000. Another $15,000 goes into the pot for…
The money puts her on the
board and puts Sue OUT. Next up, Emily faces... Kimberley, a PR exec
from Brockville, ON, Chris, the umpire from Philly, or Tammy… again. If
Emily wins, she’ll be #2. To that end, here comes Tammy.
“Please don’t be that way.” If the answer is rigatoni, then Tammy wins her first duel and Emily’s one and done. Correct: D. Unfortunately, Emily completely botches the translation. So we add $15,000 to the pot, and Emily leads, 8-7.
A or D and Emily wins her second. B or C and we continue… Correct: C. The Luxor has some 4408 rooms, the second largest hotel in the US. $20,000 in the pot, and we play on with...
If it’s 2, then it’s over. Answer: B. Spanish, English, and French. $25,000 more into the kitty, and play continues tied at 3.
“I don’t know,” says Emily. If it’s A, then Emily’s done. If it’s C, then Tammy’s done. Correct… D. We play on with $20,000 added and NO ROOM FOR ERROR.
If B is right, Emily wins. Tammy wins if it’s D. Otherwise, we go to a shootout. Correct: C. Both wrong. $10,000 into the jackpot. Time for a shootout. Remember, you have to answer the question correctly using the least amount of chips.
Correct answer… and Tammy knows it… A! Tammy wins. But she can’t get on the board with no money, so she has to win another duel. Let’s see the board.
Over ¾ of a million is up
for grabs. Duel victories are more important in the leaderboard, so all
Tammy has to worry about is winning against Pat the software engineer…
or Tom the Air Force major… or Robert the telemarketer from Chicago.
Everyone’s in with an
answer. We have $30,000 in the pot. Correct: Alaska, Hawaii, Washington,
Oregon, California, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida.
That’s D. |
