TRIVIA

• Penny Ante was played first this episode, although Penny Ante has never been played first on the real show. This is the second straight episode that a game played first has never been played first on the real show (Take Two).
• We gave away three cars this episode, making car games 3 for 4 in the show's history. In all, 11 cars have been offered, but only 5 have been won.
• Three of the four car games have not been traditional car games (Take Two, Penny Ante, and One Wrong Price). The only "car game" played was Cover Up, which was won despite an 0-18 record on the real show this season.
• For those wondering about the tennis package - each tennis racket was $199, plus two entrances to a 10-week beginner's program with the US Tennis Association cost $315 each (for a total of $1,028).
• Of the three bonus spins on the wheel, all have occurred in the second half and two of the three have landed on green. We have given away a total of $23,000 on the wheel.
• Stagey's CSS score? 52.56, which miraculously is an improvement over last episode's (since GuyWithFace went over).

PRODUCTION NOTES

• Originally, the sixth game was supposed to be an original game played for cash, but that idea was scrapped in favor of Check Out once 1/2 Off was played in order to avoid a conflict.
• I did not intend to make Mongolia so expensive; it was in fact the cheapest trip to Mongolia I could find. I briefly thought about Madrid, but that would've been too boring
• The motorcycle in Check Out was $5,699, which I decided was too small of a prize. The next plan was to offer $1,000 gas money, which would've been $6,699, and that would've just been a bad idea.
• Yes, the storage locker showcase was inspired by Storage Wars.
• I mistakenly added two small prizes from 1/2 Off to 88JRFAN's total at the end of the game. His correct total is listed above.

And that's it! I'm going to be submitting a script for Episode 3, which may or may not be an MDS. Episode 3 will probably be my last HYO since I will be attending college in the fall and will in all likelihood not be able to run any HYOs. Thanks to everyone for playing, and see you this summer! (Actually, you'll see me around the boards, but you get the point.)
