Sue made a crucial error in judgment
yesterday, so Stefanie is back for the hat trick.
Stefanie starts with $200 Best Actress Oscar by Film. At the TV time out, Wright and Stefanie are tied with $1800 to Melanie's $800. We go to the New York Times Times Machine for $600 for this round's Daily Double. Melanie wagers $2000 on this: the high hopes of this year are indicated here... LEAGUE OF NATIONS PLAN IS ADOPTED; PEACE CONFERENCE ACTS ON WILSON PLEA, STRONGLY SUPPORTED BY LLOYD GEORGE "What is 1917?" Nope, it was after WWI, 1919, meaning she ends the round at $1000. Stefanie with $1600 and Wright with $3600 means that Melanie is picking first in Double Jeopardy!... ... with $400 What a Cast of TV Characters! Melanie sweeps an "IQ" Test for $11,800! First Daily Double is under $2000 in Bruges. Stefanie bids $5000 on this from Jimmy... "The heroes in this state are a butcher and a weaver, who led a struggle against the wealthy merchants who dominated these medieval trade associations." "What are guilds?" Correct for $13,000! Melanie finds the other under $2000 100 Years of the Telescope. She bets $3000 on this: this type of telescope was developed when a Bell Labs engineer tried to find the source of shortwave interference. "What is a radio telescope?" Correct for $18,000 to Stefanie's $13,400 and Wright's $7200. Remember, all this week, you have a chance to win one of 25 spots on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure with Alex in the Galapagos Islands.

"US Presidents" The clue: besides Carter, 1 of 2 20th Century Presidents to live at least 30 years past the day he entered office? Correct response: who is Gerald Ford or Herbert Hoover?

It's Earth Day at 33, as Michael
Kovochich, Corinne Tumbarello, Brooke Magness, and Whitney Drolen,
who you may or may not remember as host of the equally-unimportant
"BMOC" on the defunct WB.
First up is a pair of cell phones made from recycled plastic. With a year of service, it's $960, as Brooke plays for a Zen electric car in Range Game with special guest Ed Begley Jr. She stops the rangefinder at $16,033. The price... $15,995. Woops. Antonio Sanico comes down and up with a $1902 recycling cabinet. Can he win a sofa, a trio of coats, and a home gym? Which is the Most Expensive? He goes with the coats. The sofa... $1605. The home gym... $1599. The coats... $2886! Michael's next with an $811 hammock. Next is a green vacation in Austria in Bonkers. The trip is not $6456. He makes several changes, and at the buzzer, he goes high, low, low, high... Someone didn't want this trip won... too bad. He's got it! And to offset the carbon emissions from the trip, TPIR is making a donation to the Voluntary Carbon Standard Association. Find out more at www.v-c-s.org. Michael also wins some green on the Big Wheel... $1000. Corinne gets a $1000 pair of watches and a shot at a catamaran in Balance Game. The bags... which are reusable canvas... ba dum bum... $795, $1000, $3000, and $4000. She prices it at $5795... It was $4795. Anna Zarley gets to come on stage with a $663 solar cell rechargers. Now comes more green... $10,000 in the Grand Game. The target: $6. Ferry-Morse carrot seeds... $1.59. Ziploc Evolve bags... $2.99! Nature's Source cleaner... $3.69. She's playing on with Miracle-Gro potting mix... $4.99! That's $10,000! It's last round last bid for Whitney, who's been down at the row all hour. The last prize: the greenest laptop on the market, a MacBook. She bids a dollar... she wins the $1299 prize! Now comes Pathfinder for a Chevrolet Malibu hybrid. First number is a 2. She gets saved with a $10 coffee tumbler and a $40 mop... but only gets so far as $27,---. It was $27,214. Corinne & Anna both win $1000 on the Wheel, so we bring back the arrow shot. Nice. Corinne spins out 25... Anna... a dime. First Showcase gives us a bedroom with sleep set and a photo safari in Kenya. Not included in the total cost is adopting an animal in Kenya through the World Wildlife Fund. Top winner Michael passes, as Corinne bids $18,600. Ed Begley Jr. returns with this Showcase: an electric bicycle, a solar-powered golf cart, and a Toyota Prius! Michael tags it at $30,500. Actual price: $35,557, a difference of $5057. Actual price of Corinne's Showcase... $26,517. The difference... $7917, as Michael wins the green today, $46,505. |
