SHORT SHORTSHOTS: (Today's episode of
Hershey Celebrity Week was a repeat from My Network TV.)
Shelly Hartman, who likes to do the robot,
plays the nightcap. She was actually on a tear to start, but ends up
with $1500. She can turn that into $15,000 if she knows about...
( $15,000 ) 5th Grade Anatomy
Along with the cornea, what membrane, whose name comes from the Greek
for "hard", forms the external covering of the human eyeballs?
Shelly makes something up... Retina... is
wrong. It was sclera. She gets $250 in plastic.
Celebrities are the order this week on CMT.
Today, three boys from Philly made good. They are Shawn Stockman, Nathan
Morris, and Wanya (no relation) Morris, collectively known as Boyz II
Men. They are playing for the Arnold Palmer Children's Hospital. They
were on a hot run before Shawn ruined it. They end up with $3500. Will
they go for $35,000? The Bonus Question... goes to Nate. The subject...
Math. Nate's going for it.
( $35,000 ) 5th Grade Math
A geometric pyramid with three faces and a base has a height of 20. If
the base has an area of 30, what is the volume of that pyramid?
The formula is 1/3 (Bh), where B is the
area of the base and h is the height, so in this particular case, it
would be 200. Nate says... 60. That's $2500 to the children's hospital.

Baggage

sales rep |
Small bags first. Colin's body
looks like a shag carpet. Seriously. Peter giggles like a little
schoolgirl. Jacobi goes the other way from Colin, getting a bro-zillian
wax every month.
Now for the Dealbreaker Round...
First bag gets naked in public when he's drunk. Second bag would
rather talk to his mother than his girlfriend. Final bag cheated
on his own mistress. The Dealbreaker? Number three. Nudity from
Peter and alienation from Jacobi she can stand... Colin's
cheating... not so much.
... and it gets better.... Colin
left his ex in a Mississippi jail.
Now for the big ones.... Peter
married a woman in Vegas... and divorced her the next day. Jacobi
personally repo'ed his ex's car. One has a funny laugh, a drunken
streak, and a crazy ex. The other has a smooth undercarriage, a
concerned mother, and a crazy ex. Someone's gotta go. That someone
is... PETER.
So Jacobi gets Lorena, but before
he can go call his momma, Lorena has something to say... "I make
men date my mom before they can date me." She apparently wants a
real man who can get with her mom. So does Peter. He can accept
her baggage. Mexican and horses await.

SHORT SHORTSHOT: Gerald Michaels is a
stay-at-home dad from KC. He makes $5000 for three songs. That'll get
him a pretty decent music center. But will he risk it for $10,000?
He's... GOING FOR IT!
( $10,000 ) "Uptown Girl" by Billy Joel
(10 words)
PREVIOUS: Uptown girl, she's been living in her white...
Gerald: ... "Bread world, I bet she never ever had a chance."
CLOSE. It was "bread world, as long as anyone with hot blood can." He's
leaving with an MP3 player.

PREVIOUS: You're not warm...
Katie: "But you're really cold, it's urgent can I get a jacket on."

had only one answer left on the board on finding a word that
rhymes with spanky. There was hankie, cranky and lanky. They went
for panky, but not thinking of baseball, or what some Americans in
the north are, it was Yankee, giving the Abdur-Rahmans their
fourth win.
Amina & Salima go for Fast Money once again. Amina & Salima didn't
do too tell on her answers, as they didn't get any of the #1
answers in their game. Despite their bad luck, they have a
four-day total of $22,195 and are one win away from a new Ford. |

Let's Make a Deal
by Chico Alexander
Air time: 3p/2C on CBS
Host: Wayne Brady with Jonathan Mangum & Tiffany Coyne
On the Web:
cbs.com/letsmakeadeal |
|
|
Marie & Wayne (Asian couple) go
high-low for $500 a card and perhaps a Hyundai Elantra to start us
off. First... a 7. Higher? 10! Lower? 7! Higher? Ace! Lower? 5!
Higher? 2. There goes the free pass. That's as good a place as any
to stop with $2500. Let's play it out, though. They would've gone
higher (9), then lower (10). Good call!
Next up, Rachael (she's got a pea in
her pod) & Cameron (NERD!) get nine checks. Rachael picks #4,
Cameron #7. We start by bypassing $500, $700, and $3000. Next
check is Cameron's. He can trade it in for a big box. Doesn't
happen, as he passes on an iMac & MacBook. So Cameron is going
away with... $150. Next, $1500 and $99. Rachael's check is next.
She can take it for either the computers or what's in Curtain #2.
She trades up her $3700 for... Tiffany's coins (ZONK!) Two cents.
Make your own joke, people.
Lucy (green\-haired chick) gets to
Spell Out a Deal. OR she can take a small box. On the board: MI.
She might have an MI if she rejects the box now. She does, and she
won't get a handbag with $1000. Now will she trade up for $500?
$700? $900? NO DEAL. She wins... MI... AMI! A trip to Miami Beach
for you!
Dana (pajamas), Maria (red
cheerleader), Rhonda (blue cheerleader) and $2100 split between
the three. Wayne's got a small box for $700. No one wants it. It
has... a spa experience. Instead, everyone gets $300 more. Wayne's
got a big box for $1000. No one wants it. It has... an LMAD puppet
show (ZONK!). Everyone gets another $300. Wayne has Curtain #1 for
$1300. NOBODY wants it. So everyone has $1300. No one has a dining
room.
We hope Stacy (vampire) was paying
attention, because it's time to play... Who Wants to Answer
Multiple Choice Questions for Cash & Prizes?. She sweeps the game
for $3500, but we have one more question... Will you a) buy
Curtain #2, b) buy Curtain #3, or c) Keep the money? One of them
has a new car. She buys Curtain #3. Behind Curtain #3... a
Zonkmobile! Behind Curtain #2... a 2010 Kia Rio.
More spelling with Brian (referee).
The first two letters... CA. He could take a car... or a piece of
caca. Instead, he can trade for a box. He missed out on some
camping equipment... thoroughly used (ZONK!). Instead, he's taking
a Sea-Doo!...
... but not for long, because he's
at the top of the board for the Big Deal worth $30,487.
TRADE LIST:
Brian: $8699
Lucy: $6591
Marie & Wayne: $2500
Dana: $1300
Maria: $1300
Rhonda: $1300
Cameron: $150
Rachael: $100... and two big cents
Stacy: ZONKMOBILE!
... and he's giving it back for
Door #2. Door #3... a retro kitchen worth $8685. We'll see Brian's
door... AFTER Door #1 reveals a Wii Fit with HDTV. Brian's Big
Deal is... trips to Hawaii and Paris! |

*game in progress |
We are back with Karla Abea and 26
people left in the Mob. She was at $5,000 and she wants more!
Let's see if she can get more...
1 Vs. 26
According to USA Today, 70% of Americans think that new brides
should do what?
A. Keep her last name, B. Take her husbands last name, C.
Hyphenate her last name.
Karla, who thinks B is too easy, says C. She should have gone with
her gut. It's B! Karla is out and the Mob takes their first win.
Only 3 people got it wrong, so 23 people will split the $5,000,
for $217 each. Win #1 for the Mob!
Will they get win #2? Not if Max Diamond has anything to say about
it. He had a dream that he would be on the show. Would he dream
about $50,000? Let's play...
1 Vs. 100
What hands-free phone technology was named for a Danish king?
A. Redbeard. B. Beowulf, C. Bluetooth
Despite not having one, Max says Bluetooth. He's right.
Eliminated: 3. Level: $0
Max isn't going to stop and take $0, so let's play.
1 Vs. 97
Lindsay Lohan is opening a bottle of champagne to celebrate
getting out of rehab. What pasta in her cupboard would she most
likely mistake for a corkscrew?
A. Fusilli, B. Vermicelli, C. Screwcini
Max is logically reasoning that it's A. It is A. Eliminate: 19
Level: $750
1 vs. 78
If Spartacus was smartacus, how would he correctly write the year
2011 in Roman numerals?
A. MXMI B. XMMI C. MMXI
Max can use his 'Progressive Helps'. He will and polls the Mob on
B. He gets 3, and the contestants are 0-3 on getting the Mob
Members on the right answer. For the 3rd straight contestant is
going to also Trust the Mob on the same time. He trusts the Mob
and he is right. Eliminated; 5 Level: $750
1 Vs. 73
Kate Middleton became the envy of millions of women in 2003 when
she started dating what royal lad?
A. Prince Harry, B. Prince William, C. Prince Andrew.
Max goes with Prince William...he's right! Eliminated: 14 Level:
$1,500
Now Max is over $1,000, so he can stop. He doesn't want to. Bring
on the Mob!
1 vs. 59
Jesus, Vishnu and Buddha each open Twitter accounts. If all of
their current followers became followers, who would have the
biggest following?
A. Jesus, B. Vishnu, C. Buddha
Max is going to go with Jesus. Carrie Ann is going to ask a mob
member, and we see SISTER ROSE (#19), who was a staple on the NBC
airing of the original 1 Vs. 100. She made a decent amount of coin
on the national NBC version, but she's not going to make any coin
now, because Jesus is right. She may have been part of the group
that won $217 though. Eliminated: 36. Total: $5,000
Max is 3 away from $10,000. However, he's all out of helps. He's
going to take on the mob! We'll see if he can be the highest
contestant...on the next show. Aw. |

Every fish in the audience is found
in the Go Find Fish, giving us a 150-150 tie to start.
Maze Craze: Both ladies come up
short on the sweep, so the score is still tied, 250-250.
A claw, a crescent moon, and
a turtle are in the Eyeballs & Oddballs. Again, a perfect
sweep, so this comes down to whoever can find the finish fish. It
is... the Greens! They lead, 395-370.
Oranges need just one in 3-for-1 to
take the lead. They get four for 630. The Greens need four to win.
They get the four to win, 655-630
Penguin Prize Hunt for a trip to
Arizona: Even with a last-second no-go on #3, they still have #1,

Midweek at the Price with Helina Golaw,
Michel Berthiaume, Sylvia Mendoza, Amber Davis, and a Dell. Michel
gets the Dell for $1648. Now can he get a Chevrolet Equinox in
Lucky Seven? He's down to his last dollar with $23,78- showing. He
goes with 9. The number up... 5.
Sylvia gets a $673 women's watches.
Time for her to take on 1/2 Off for $10,000. She gets a $20 light
keeper, a $100 weather station, a $30 20 Questions game, and a $40
stock pot set. That leaves her with 6, 7, 10, and 11. She picks
#7... and she should've takes the next one over.
Diana Fonseca gets a $2095 wall
aquarium. Now for a chair, a set of Gucci accessories, and a set
of golf clubs. Which is the Most Expensive? She goes for the
clubs. Desk is $4698, accessories is $3535. Clubs... $2905. This
is going to be one of THOSE shows...
Even so, Diana wins the first
Showdown. Helina wins a $2220 Vera Wang stemware set. Now can she
win a PS3, Wii & Xbox package and a trip to San Diego? Setting the
Magic # at $1116... Less than the $2780 for the trip... and the
$1539 for the games.
Amber wins a pair of iPhone 4s
worth $1718. She'll Let'em Roll for a Mazda 3. She gets two. First
one... $3000. She's good with that, and we avoid the outright
skunk.
Rachel Brigoni goes down and up
thanks to a $1249 Blu-Ray player. Now to add onto it: a popcorn
cart, an HDTV, and theatre seating. The board in Bonkers: 5645.
It's almost like they're trying for a loss here. They get one, as
she tries six combos when she really needed only four.
Extreme budget Price ends with
Amber winning on the Big Wheel. First Showcase is eye-catching
with a set of jewelry, a pair of motorscooters, and a 2011 Mazda
Miata. Top winner Amber bids $25,000. Diana gets hot & cold with
snowboards & skis and trips to Miami & Switzerland with $5000. She
bids $24,000. Actual price: $24,806, a difference of $806. Actual
price of Amber's Showcase: $36,173, a difference of over $11,000.
That's going to give the day - and $26,901 - to Diana. |

$5,000. She also jumps the 7th, missing out on $2,000. Then, with
$21,500 in her bank, this pops up...
[Question 8] (It's Therapeutic)
As defined by the International Spa Association, anthotherapy
takes place in a what?
A: River
B: Jungle
C: Cave
D: Desert
Since she can't figure out what the prefix "antho-" would refer
to, Gail walks with $10,750. The answer, by the way, is C.
Paulette Renna (East Patchogue, NY) - High school English teacher.
She didn't tell anyone that she would be on this show.
[Question 1] (TV Hosts)
In 2010, CNN hired what British reality TV judge to replace Larry
King as host of a nightly talk show?
A: Simon Cowell
B: Len Goodman
C: Nigel Lythgoe
D: Piers Morgan
Paulette is only familiar with one of those names. She asks the
audience, and 74% say D. She trusts them, and they're of course
right, giving her... $3,000!
After that, she jumps the 3rd and 4th questions, which had $15,000
and $2,000, respectively. Then, after Paulette builds her bank up
to $36,000, she has this to think about...
[Question 7] (Mixed Music)
Which of these music acts is not co-ed?
A: Coldplay
B: The Black Eyed Peas
C: The White Stripes
D: Lady Antebellum
She rules out B, and she's thinking A. But Paulette isn't familiar
enough with these groups, so she walks with $18,000! As it turns
out, though, the answer was indeed A!
Michelle McNamara (New York, NY) - Graduate student. Her goal is
to repair the country's education system.
She makes it halfway through Round 1 without any problems,
bringing her bank up to $40,000 along the way. Then, she sees
this...
[Question 6] (The Tonys)
Of the following Tonys, who is the only one to have won a Tony
Award?
A: Tony Curtis
B: Tony Danza
C: Tony Kushner
D: Tony Randall
Though she has an idea, Michelle isn't certain enough, so she asks
the audience. 47% are thinking D. That's what she thought, so she
goes with D... but it's C (23%)! Ouch. That means she leaves with
$1,000 as the show ends for today. |
