Last week, Dewey Moorman left with $1000 after underestimating America's feelings about firearms. Julie Foehr left with $10,000 after overestimating Americans' freedom to drive. Tonight, Carissa Scarpa puts her $10,000 on the line AND a current houseguest on "Big Brother" will try their luck.

As a reminder, every question answered correctly within range will increase winnings by the power of 10, from $1000 to $10,000 to $100,000 to $1 million to $10 million. Players can walk away at any time, but if they go for it and miss, they'll lose by the power of 10 and walk out with that much. Help is available, though, in the form of the audience and companions.

But the moment an answer is "locked in", it is considered final and binding.

We switch out companions this week, trading in Carissa's boyfriend Matthew for her father Matthew. We're playing for $100,000... now.

"I have asked myself 'What would Bob Barker do?'" First guess from Carissa is... pretty high, 65-85%. "I bet people would SAY they'd answer that." Smart girl. Audience is dimorphic lower than Carissa. Matthew says that it would be a hair lower because of all the different beliefs.

"What would Drew do?" Drew already has $100,000. Remember, she doesn't have to go for it...

Carissa locks in with 56-76%.

America said...  54%. A HAIR! By a hair! She does leave with $1000.

Next, it's the moment Big Brother fans have been waiting for. It's time for Amber Siyavus (Las Vegas) and Daniele Donato (Huntington Beach, CA) to play the game. This is their first taste of "the real world" in 53 days. At this time, I think I'll let my compatriot Ryan Vickers take over contestant intros...

Drew Carey: Gee, so much has happened since you've been in the house. We've invented flying cars, Karl Rove is president, I'm the new host of The Price is Right...
Daniele AKA Not so bright BB player #1: Yeah! (just feigning interest)

Cut to BB broadcast an hour later...
Amber AKA Not so bright BB player #2: He couldn't be the new host of TPIR could he?
Eric AKA "America's Player" on BB: Nah.

Ha ha frickity ha. They should bring back the "headlines" challenge from Season One, that was damn good entertainment.

---

Amber wants to give her family the money if she wins. Daniele wants a new car and to go to school.

But only one will play for the money. The other will catch a jet back to Radford and the BB House.

America said..... 33%! Holy cow! We're up to $10,000!

So what's it like to have so much scrutiny in the house? "Honestly, I don't know what scrutinize means." Once Drew defines it. "Everywhere you go, you're being watched." So she redefines it. Good for her.

Next for $100,000...

"Talking to you, Michael Vick." Amber: "I like Michael Vick." Drew: "You won't after you get out of the house and find out what happened to him."

Amber's first answer... 27-47%. The audience goes along the same lines. Amber thinks pit bulls are great dogs. Katie wants to go lower.

Amber locks in with 18-38%.

Tom spins a first answer of 21-61%. Audience goes to 5-45%. Todd thinks about Republicans and Democrats and what not. Doesn't really gel with the question. Tom splits the difference and locks in with 11-51%.

America said..... 26%! That's worth $1000! For Arnold.. not worth much.

For $10,000...

Tom goes with 5-35% first... The audience ... agrees. No one cares about these people. Todd agrees...

Tom locks it in.

A lot of variables to consider with this... Tom goes 12-32%. Audience goes between 30-50%. It is hard to adopt babies in America today. Todd wants Tom to go higher. Tom is still thinking relatively low...
