Oh man, all down to this, 50/50. Does it get any better than this?

How is this suspenseful at all? If he goes snack bars and they are THEN, then Gel is NOW. If they are NOW, then Gel is THEN. He can't lose! (Unless GRF Isn't using the 2T/4N "Hidden" Rule :P)

If the audience feels the suspense, there's no way I'm going to let some "rule" get in the way of it!

That being said, I'm going to bank on the fact that goldie is much nicer in his HYO's than Frank. That previous setup was pure evil.

I'm going to pass on that decorating gel question for a moment and try THEN on the snack bars. If that is correct, I will say NOW on the decorating gel for the rare five-in-a-row win.

Okay, he's going for what I call the five-card charlie here.  He thinks the Nutty Bars are then, and…



DING(cheers and applause)

They are then!  Now, if the decorating gel is now, Flerbert, you will have won that motorcycle and we will have broken even for the day with three games won.  That price on the decorating gel is…






Now!

DINGDINGDINGDINGDINGDINGDING(cheers and applause)(2007 main theme)

That is how you play this game, folks!  Flerbert pulled off a five-in-a-row win and, I congratulate you, enjoy that motorcycle! We're going to have the second showcase showdown after this!

(2007 CNAoS Cue)

Contestants not appearing on stage will receive: A new globe!  GeoSafari's interactive geography quiz game with dazzling lights and sound effects to guide, reward, and excite. One to four players choose quiz categories (USA/ Canada, World, All) and answer response times. It's an effective teaching globe, as well as a fun quiz machine!  And a new barbecue!  From Char-Broil, the TRU Infrared two-burner T-22D barbecue has all of the features of a full-size gas grill with the convenience of a reduced footprint for smaller spaces or families.  And now, here is goldroadfanatic with our showcase showdown!

(applause)



Thank you, George!  I have 123123123, Flerbert, and RCPlanes ready to spin the big wheel and the one of them who is nearest to one dollar without going over will advance to the showcase.  RCPlanes, you won the most, so you'll spin last, Flerbert will spin second, and 123 to the third power will spin first.  Good luck!

Spinning Order:
123123123
Flerbert419
RCPlanes59


(Pleases submit two numbers from 1 to 20 as well as the lowest score you'll stand on if you get it in spin #1)

(beeps)

And away we go!  123123123 is trying to get a dollar in one or a combination of two spins so he can win $1,000 and a bonus spin!  The wheel is slowing down on…

(beep)



Thirty cents, and that is not enough for him; here's his second spin!

(beeps)

What will we add to that 30 cents?  That dollar better not come down, and that wheel better not stop on 90…

(beep)



Right in the middle of those amounts, an additional nickel, for a score of 35 cents.  Don't fret; you're still in this, 123123123!



DING(applause)

Someone did win with just 30 cents on this show before, so it is possible for you to win, 123123123.  Now it's time for Flerbert to try his luck; spin the wheel!

(beeps)

Flerbert played Now…or Then in a spectacular fashion, and he'd love to do some more winning in the showcase.  It looks like he might unseat 123123123….

(beep)



And he does with 85 cents, that's a great score!



DING(applause)

Now it's up to RCPlanes59 to beat Flerbert to get into the showcase!

(beeps)

Here goes his first spin, and 85 cents is what he needs to beat.  He did not do it with one spin…

(beep)



You have 60 cents to build on, RCPlanes; spin again!

(beeps)

This will decide who goes onto the showcase round and who leaves the stage.  It looks like things might work out for you RCPlanes, here comes that 40!  Come on down!  Come on down!

(beep)



MRRRRRRRRRRP

Oh, so close!  But enjoy that new car of yours, RCPlanes, goodbye.

(applause)(Dig We Must 2007)



Flerbert, you will be in the showcase alongside wildbill0962.  Folks, the penultimate part of our show is next, you don't want to miss it!

Despite not being the most glamorous showcase, it's things I feel that I might be able to price well.

$18,381

Flerbert bids a palindromic $18,381…



DING(applause)

Now, wildbill0962, take a look at your showcase!

(Switcheroo Cue #1)

Wildbill0962, your showcase takes a look at prizes used by our models as they attempt to survive a zombie apocalypse!  First, the girls must make their plan of escape, and keep track of time counting against them at the same time.  They do so with this new clock table!



(Turntable spins)

From Howard Miller, the Ravenna coffee table clock is 40" wide and this handsome Clocktail table treats form and function as one. Antique Moment in Time Style face. Beautiful, decorative metal work surrounds an antique clock dial which is visible under a glass top. The metal frame is finished in Burnished Umber with gold highlights. Quartz, battery operated movement!

The girls must stay in contact with each other as the zombies make their way toward our studio.  That's why each of them is prepared with the latest in digital communication, these new iPods!




(applause)(All four brandish them)

Four 32GB Apple iPod Touches!  Now in its fifth generation, this device allows you to stream the web, use thousands of apps, and take pictures with its five megapixel camera!

As the zombies continue their assault on CBS Television City, the girls remember where their shelter is located, just in case the studio is completely overrun with the walking dead, fabulous Jamaica!




(door #1 opens)(applause)

You and a guest will fly round-trip coach from Los Angeles to Kingston, Jamaica, for a six-night stay at the Royal Sandals Caribbean Resort's own private island!  Enjoy the tropical paradise and amenities that come with these exquisite accommodations, from the Royal Sandals Caribbean Resort!

But unfortunately, the zombies have already broken into the studio, and so the girls take place in their emergency refuge, your final prize, this new trailer!




(door #2 opens)(cheers and applause)

From Keystone RV, the 26.5' long 24BH Hideout travel trailer features a liquid propane kitchen, a queen bed, a bunk bed with room for the whole family. Designed for maximum comfort in a well-appointed living space that feels larger than the square footage suggest, the Hideout could be your next hideout from the real world.

And wildbill0962, your showcase, where our girls are now fending off the zombie invasion from taking over our studio, can be yours if The Price is Right!




wildbill0962, that is your showcase; what is your bid on it?
