Gordon: This is Gordon Pepper, and welcome to the Password Pre-Game special!
Joe: We're pre-gaming? Where's the booze?
Gordon: We will do some pre-game analysis while we go tailgating. We start in Brooklyn, where most New York Jets fans are looking to drive their team under the bus, Mr. Jason Block.
Jason: Grumble. Well at least the Giants have clinched.
Gordon: Next up, from Canada, where most Toronto Raptors want to drive their coach under Niagara Falls, Mr. Don Harpwood.
Don: So, how's that weather there? I've been getting so much snow lately...
Jason: The weather here? Cold and nasty
Gordon: Next up, a man from Pittsburgh who is waiting to drive his Steelers Steelers under the bus, Mr. Joe Mello.
Joe: I'm an Eagles man, myself. What a difference >_>
Gordon: What about the Eagles scoring 3 lousy points in a loss to Washington?
Joe: The less said, the better. I have 4 letters to describe the 3 points
Gordon: And finally, the man who will be driving Carolina under the bus in around 4 hours when his panthers get trampled by my New York Giants, Mr. Chico Alexander.
Chico: You bloody wish. One word... Plaxico. He was freaking carrying the team.
Joe: I respectfully disagree
Gordon: So what are we doing on early? We're going to do some pre-game for a specific contestant on this episode. The contestant: Chad Mosher. Tell us about Chad.
Jason: Chad was a 2nd place Kids Week winner in 2003.

http://www.j-archive.com/showplayer.php?player_id=1666

Chico: He's been on Jeopardy! and he was on America's team on TP: AP ... more than once.
Joe: Think he's up over 3 grand in that department.
Jason: He won twice on America's team.
Gordon: Can he pull off the Trifecta? We'll find out. And for more game show fan boys, it's game show night!
Chico: And it's SHOWTIME! Tonight, host of Big Brother Julie Chen...
Jason: It's Chen-bot!
Chico: ... and host of "The Amazing Race", Phil Keoghan...and they're all here to play MILLION DOLLAR PASSWORD!
Joe: I put the two celebs on even keel, actually. Maybe a slight edge to Chen
Chico: Julie's playing with Gail Golden of Buffalo, NY. She does diversity training... by theatre. Phil is playing with Rafael Rivera from Phil's adopted hometown of Santa Monica.
Gordon: Rafael just got laid off...and is getting married in 4 days. Oops.
Jason: Ouch.
Chico: Interesting.
Don: Yipes.
Joe: We start with the ladies

Don: Not bad at all.
Chico: This is gonna be a hot one.
Gordon: Based on the disaster that was last week, 4 points is great
Joe: Good stick-to-itiveness with "Cher"
Jason: yes.
Chico: Phil/Rafael's turn

Joe: Decent recovery
Chico: I'll say.

Jason: ouch.
Joe: That was all on Gail
Gordon: Sure was. Just let Rafael back in the game

Joe: That one was on Phil, but hey, it's a game
Chico: SWITCH!
Joe: Think Rafael may have the edge here.

Gordon: Another 4 for Gail

Jason: nice job
Joe: Got through them all at least
Jason: Boston...would have been the best clue
Chico: Yep.

Joe: Phil is not a good receiver
Jason: That was all on Phil
Chico: And Regis gives him the business for it. Gail: 11, Rafael: 10. Rafael has one last shot.
Gordon: Bye, Gail.
Chico: RAFAEL/Julie. 2 to win.

Gordon: Rafael wins - and he gets Julie. Rafael got 6 with each celebrity, so he plays with the person who got him the win.
Joe: And honestly, Julie's the better player.
Gordon: Rafael, like all other before him, will give. 3 clues, etc.
Chico: Reminder: $25,000 and $250,000 are safe havens. Starting with 10 passwords for $10,000. RAISE THE PLATFORM!

Joe: Well done
Don: Very well done.
Gordon: That was easy.
Chico: Very easy.
Jason: 9 clues
Joe: Anyone catch the clock?
Don: 1:05.
Gordon: Only took 25 seconds. Will he play for $25,000?
Chico: Sure he will. He's got to.
Gordon: Julie says she'll cut him a check. That's nice of Julie.

Joe: Whew
Jason: oh man
Don: I'd have said "period" for COMMA.
Joe: Comma was a straight-up misread
Chico: semicolon.
Gordon: As for Veto...that's Julie Chen. What about...Power...of... :)
Chico: OH!
Gordon: Power of Veto.
Don: Of course!
Chico: Be kind, G.
Gordon: She's only said that phrase 18,000 times.
Chico: She might not've become self-aware yet.
Joe: At least for that
Don: Maybe Rafael might have either forgotten about Big Brother, or he didn't see it enough to know that phrase to try using it here.
Chico: I'd believe either case.
Joe: So from perfect run to near-perfect train wreck. Don't you love this game? :P
Gordon: And if he did screw it up (since with only 8 seconds left, he probably wouldn't have had enough time to get another one), do you think Julie would have really cut him a check?
Joe: Doubt it
Chico: Why not... her hubby only owns the network, right?
Jason: That's pocket money to her.
Joe: Up to the 50K level
Gordon: And of course, since he has nothing to lose, Rafael is going for $50,000.
Chico: 5/8 passwords for $50,000...

Chico: $50,000!
Joe: 75 seconds, but it counts
Don: Another close one.
Chico: How scary is this?
Gordon: I hate to say this, if he didn't get it, it's all on him. His clues were strange. Now this time, if he goes for it and misses, he's giving $25,000 back.
Joe: I think he walks.
Don: I think might want to consider walking after that.
Gordon: Rafael...goes for it.
Jason: Here we go.
Don: Oh, boy...

Chico: Wow.
Don: Whew.
Jason: Nice clues.
Chico: Is it getting scary or what?
Don: Very.
Joe: Time for a free peak at the words for $250,000.
Gordon: Here's the 6 words that are coming up.

Novocaine...Mushroom...Tinsel...Geyser...Pomegranate...Default.

Jason: And I will guess he will walk.
Chico: Walking time.
Gordon: I can do 4. The last 2 are going to be tough.
Don: Walk!
Gordon: Rafael...decides to stop with $100,000.
Chico: He needs the money.
Jason: Good move.
Chico: He has no job and a woman to support in four days.
Joe: Well, 100K is a good dowry
Chico: Oh yeah. And next... our friend Chad's game. Now we like to remain impartial as a panel of amateur journalists, but between you, me, and the lamp post... fry your opponent like lumpia.
Joe: like what?
Chico: Like lumpia.
Joe: like what?
Gordon: They work in Willy Wonka's factory right next to the geese who lay golden eggs.
Chico: They're like Filipino spring rolls.
Gordon: Julie is with April Kelliwell, from Costa Mesa, CA. April is an activities director from a local high school.
Chico: Phil's playing with Chad Mosher, a college student from Flint, MI.
Joe: Trying to WinTuition
Gordon: And who is a game show media ho.
Chico: "Repeat offender," Gordon. World of difference.
Gordon: You say To-may-to, I say to-mah-to. Still a game show ho.
Don: Heh.
Chico: Game time.

Joe: That went south fast :(
Chico: "Journal."
Gordon: Journal's what I was thinking.

Chico: It's time for the civs to give.

Chico: Sweep.
Jason: Wow.
Chico: *waves broom in the air*
Don: Nice.
Chico: April: 7, Chad: 4.
Gordon: Let's see if Chad can match that.
Chico: CHAD/Phil

Chico: Sweep!
Jason: Wow.
Chico: *waves broom in the air*
Joe: My mother yelled "Aiken" for Clay :P
Chico: April: 7. Chad: 9.
Joe: As Dick Clark might say, 2 points is a tough hole to get out of.
Chico: SWITCH! Chad's in a room with three game show hosts...He's over the moon right now.
Gordon: But it's April who starts this round.

Jason: She got Gladiator just after the buzzer.
Gordon: Chad wants to be a game show host.
Jason: Don't we all. :)
Chico: YEAH.
Don: Heh.

Chico: SWEEP.
Jason: Ve-ry nice.
Don: Great clues.
Chico: April: 11. Chad: 14.
Gordon: I'm guessing April would have preferred to be on the first show.
Chico: She's up against fire here.
Gordon: April must get at least 3 here to stick around.

Jason: Wow.
Joe: Phil killed her
Don: Big ouch.
Gordon: The good news is that Chad won. The bad news is he has to play with contestant killer Phil Keoghan.
Joe: No one said this was going to be easy
Chico: This game will self-destruct in five... four... two... three... one...
Gordon: (BOOM)
Joe: We dyslexic with numbers our? :P
Chico: Nope, just me watching the chicken gun ep of Mythbusters.
Gordon: Chico is the perfect contestant to play with William Shatner :D
Joe: Yes, if we want to see a head explode a la Scanners
Gordon: Chico's or Phil's?
Joe: Both?
Chico: You both suck.
Joe: Heh.
Don: Based on what we've seen, I'm thinking Chad might want to receive the clues here.
Gordon: I don't think it would help.
Chico: I don't know... I think he likes this game....I think he'll do well either way.
Gordon: But...Chad will...give. just like everyone else.
Chico: RAISE THE PLATFORM!
Joe: Best piece of Chrome in game shows

Don: Whew.
Jason: Oh man.
Joe: So okay, I need a clarification: York for subway?
Chico: Yeah, York... the New kind. Because if he said "New York", he'd get the razz.
Joe: Thank you. Some of us don't associate York with new. Like Pennsylvanians and residents of England.
Jason: I do :)
Gordon: Phil wants to swap places with Regis.
Chico: No, Phil, you can't host.
Gordon: He can't play, either.
Chico: And sure enough, Regis gives him the business...
Joe: Could've done better with "hole"
Chico: "Pit". "Bottomless". "Donut."
Gordon: What's in Phil's head. Chad is going to go on. I feel sorry for Chad right now.
Joe: Golf, eighteen

Chico: Holy cow.
Don: Whoa!
Chico: And he thought Race was hard.
Gordon: Phil faints. Regis does what any concerned game show host does and dumps water on him.
Joe: Someone tell Phil that you can't talk out your answer
Chico: What was it you said about game show hosts putting fires out with petrol?
Gordon: Regis is channeling the spirit of Bert Convy quite nicely. Chad is going to go for $50,000. Good luck, Chad!

Joe: There we go
Don: That's better.
Jason: Much better.
Chico: That's how you do it.
Joe: 34 seconds
Gordon: Now if Chad knows what's good for him, he may want to think long and hard before going for $100,000.
Chico: Will Chad go for $100,000? More important question... how much longer can these guys survive?
Gordon: Phil can only make 2 errors. So far, Phil has made 3 errors in each of the first 2 rounds. If I'm Chad, I'm walking with the $50,000. Chad asks Phil if he can go another round. Phil says yes, so they will go for it.
Chico: I'm scared, daddy.
Gordon: Me too. I would have quit right there.
Jason: Here we go.

Chico: Sorry, Chad.
Don: Darn.
Joe: More's the pity
Gordon: I think Chad right now is currently thinking of a word that sounds very similar to the word 'sheets'. :D
Chico: But Chad does leave with $25,000.
Gordon: Will Phil cut a check for $75,000 for Chad?
Chico: He can afford it.
Joe: I don't think he should. Chad dug his own grave there
Gordon: True. I can't completely blame Phil here. Chad did not give good clues for some of those words. He should have called out 3 different states.
Joe: Or did something like United.... geographic...divisions
Chico: Still, it was a good show all around...Even if Phil almost lost it.
Gordon: Mercifully for Phil, we will end the show here. Special thanks to everyone for joining us.
Jason: Thank you
Joe: No prob
Don: Can't wait for next week! Betty White and Adam Carolla.
Chico: Stay tuned for Family Guy coming up on another station. Good night, everyone =p
