Buenos noches, and welcome to tonight’s show! Last night saw the Pulido family set a one-day record with $310,000 pesos in total winnings, including two Dinero Rapido wins. They will face the winner of the first half of the show, and here are the families:

Avila: Luis, Marisela, Rodrigo, Victor, y Marissa

Rangel: Ricardo, Miryam, Sergio, Karina, y Maria

Vamos a jugar! Round one, and 5 answers on the board: Name something a fortune teller uses. After a few seconds, Ricardo buzzes in with “las cartas/tarot” as the #1 answer. The next family members get the next 3 answers before striking out, leaving the #5 answer up for grabs. The Avila family try to steal the bank with tea, but that doesn’t work out, and the Rangel family jumps out to a 90-0 lead! Here is the board:

1. las cartas/tarot (tarot cards) – 52
2. leer la mano (palm reading) – 20
3. bola de crystal (crystal ball) – 13
4. el café (coffee) – 5
5. “De Tin Marin” (?!?) – 3

Second round also has 5 answers on the board: Name a bad trait in a person? Marisela swung and missed, so then Miryam took control with the #4 answer of “insegura” (or uncertain). The next three family members then got the #5 answer, “perdedora” (loser), the #1 answer, “mediocre,” and the #3 answer, “fracasada” (failure). After Ricardo gave a wrong answer, Marco Antonio joked around with the director, and we could hear him off-camera! After that, two more strikes appeared on the board, giving the Avilas a chance to steal with “bueno para nada” (nothing good). But that wasn’t up there, and the Rangels now have a 147-0 lead! The #2 answer was “conformista.” Now on to round three. Vamos a jugar!

6 answers are on the board to this question: “Menciona una divercion que puedes en contrar en una playa turistica.” (Translation: Name an activity you can do at a tourist beach) Rogrigo buzzed in with the #4 answer of “nadar” (swim), and then Sergio tried to gain control with sunbathe, but that wasn’t up there! The Avilas gain control now, and they get answers #1 to 5 before getting three strikes in a row. Now the Rangels have a chance to steal the bank of 59 points with the #6 answer. However, parasailing was not on the board, and the Avila family is on the board! Here are the answers:

1. banana (banana boat) – 16
2. voleibol (volleyball) – 12
3. motos acuaticas (water bikes) – 11
4. nadir (swim) – 10
5. surfear (surf) – 10
6. lanchas (boats) – 6

After three rounds, the Rangel family is winning 147-59. By the way, we have people from Haiti in the audience! Welcome to them! Here we go with the fourth round where the points are doubled! 4 answers on the board to this question: Name a characteristic of a Japanese person. Victor quickly buzzes in with the #1 answer of “ojos rasgados” (closed eyes) worth 64 points. The rest of the family sweeps the board with “color de piel” (skin color), “kimono,” and “son delgadas” (thin), each response worth 4 points, 8 doubled. 152 points are added to the Avilas’ score giving them a 211-147 lead now! We now move onwards to “quinto round! Vamos a jugar!”

The points are now tripled as the top 4 answers are on the board to this question: Name an animal that reproduces quickly. Marissa buzzes in with the #1 answer of “conejos” (rabbits), and after the Avila family get the #2 answer of “cucarachas” (cockroaches), they quickly strike out and give the Rangel family a very good chance to win the game with two answers left! They answer “arenas” (spiders)…but that wasn’t up there! This gives the Avila family the win, 376-147! Here was the board:

1. conejos (rabbits) – 36
2. cucarachas – 19
3. hormigas (ants) – 11
4. batas (bats) – 10

Victor takes first shot at Dinero Rapido, and he earns 101 points for his good work, including something you don’t do around children, “fumar” worth 37 (smoking). However, Luis was unable to capitalize as 4 of his 5 answers earned 2-7 points. They ended up with 156 total points and will now face the intimidating Pulido family in the second part of the show! Once again, let’s introduce the Pulido family! There is Anita, Maggie, Guillermo, Fer, and Maria Elena.

After the first round, the Pulido family got off to a quick lead, 49-0.

Round two asked what top 6 important people are around the president. The Avila family got off to a great start, getting all the answers, except #5. The Pulido family tried to steal, but didn’t get it, giving the Avilas the 78 point bank! Here was how the board looked:

1. senadores (senators) – 20
2. diputados (deputies) – 18
3. gobernadores (governors) – 15
4. secretario de estado (state secretary) – 15
5. su esposa (First Lady!) – 12
6. otro presidente (other presidents/presidents from other countries) – 10

Round three had 6 answers and this question asked 100 KIDS: “Nombra un animal aquatico que se…” BZZZ! Eep! Guillermo jumped the gun and after much hesitation said “delfin” (dolphin). That was the number one answer! The whole question asked what kind of aquatic animal is portrayed in cartoons. After Fer and Maria got answers #3 and #4, Anita answered the always popular answer, “La mas popular? Un perro!”

Marco Antonio then proceeded to repeat, “Animal aquatico!” Anita insisted there was such a thing as a seadog…and Marco then tried to act out a sea dog! After much fun and embarrassment, two strikes were on the board! Then Guillermo proceeded to give an equally funny answer, “La sirenita!” (a mermaid?!?) Once again, Marco Antonio repeated, “Si…animal aquatico…” Guillermo also insisted that a mermaid was a sea animal, and as Marco Antonio was making fun and laughing while seeing if the answer was up there….there it was at #2! Marco was so red-faced that he was bowing down to Guillermo saying, “Es Buena repuesta!” (Good answer!) After Fer gave the #6 answer, the Pulido family got their third strike. The Avilas tried to steal with “cangerjo” (crab), but that was not the #5 answer, and the Pulido family wins another round nabbing 77 more points! Here was the board:

1. delfin (dolphin) -- 24
2. sirenita (mermaid) – 17
3. pez (fish) – 16 (Buscando a Nemo!)
4. ballena (whale) – 13
5. tortuga (turtle) – 8
6. pulpo (squid) – 7

After three rounds, the Pulido family leads 126-78! Here we go with round 4 and the points are doubled! 4 answers are on the board asking to name something in tennis. The Pulidos gain control with the #2 answer, and then Maria gets the #1 answer! After two strikes, Guillermo gets the #4 answer! If they get this last one, they will win it all! However, the Pulidos miss and give the Avila family a chance to steal with the number three answer…and they nail it! The Avilas successfully steal 200 points and now take a 278-126 lead! Here was how the board looked:

1. forma de agarrar la raqueta (holding the racket) -- 40
2. pegarle a la pelota (hitting the ball) -- 32
3. las reglas (the rules) -- 20
4. el saque (the serve) – 8

Now it’s time for the fifth round where the points are tripled! 3 answers on the board: name a bad characteristic when you are bringing up someone. (At least that’s the gist of it) Maria buzzed in with “corriente” at #3, but then Marissa nailed the #1 answer! Almost right away, Luis finished it off with the #2 answer, and that wins the game! The Avilas take another 201 points with this board:

1. grosero (rude) -- 32
2. naco (filthy) -- 18
3. corriente (common) – 17

The Avilas win the game 479-126, and they move on to the big Dinero Rapido round! We must say “Adios” to the Pulido family, but not before congratulating them on winning $310,000 pesos from yesterday’s show! Right now, that is the current record for high winnings in ONE DAY.

Marissa and Victor are teaming up this time to try and win the $200,000 pesos on the big fast money round. But first, let’s see what Marissa can pull out of the candy basket…

…$5000! Not bad! That automatically adds another $5000 pesos to their current grand total giving them $15,000 pesos for the day, so far. Marissa only gets 80 points for her answers, which means Victor needs to do the dirty work here. Here we go…

His first response to a cookie flavor besides chocolate was vanilla…and that was the #1 answer worth a whopping 68 points! Only 52 points to go! However, when he answered 1 liter on the size of a soda bottle, that only garnered 9 points! (Medio-litro, or 500 ml. was #1) After gaining 26 points in the next 2 questions, it came down to the last question to name a part of the clothes that is folded. “Manga” (sleeve) was given as the #1 answer already, and Victor then said “cuello” (neck). He only needed 17 points for the $100,000 pesos… “La…encuesta…dice…”

12 points! Ay! What a heartbreaker! They ended up with 195 points total. Oy, that “Puntos Extra” candy wrapper would have been VERY useful today. However, the Avila family wins $15,000 pesos today, and they will be back tomorrow to try again for the big money! Adios, amigos!
