I thought It's in the Bag was pretty easy except for the last bag. I was right with the snacks, but I could see thinking it was the barbecue sauce. To me though the size of the sauce bottle made it seem like it should be over $3.59. Race Game was definitely very easy, but a great win nonetheless.

It was kind of odd having a prize package of all things directly related to cars in Master Key. Getting the Master Key is the absolute best result in the game in terms of total amount won, but winning the car is the main objective. Winning the car but not both of the secondary prizes would've felt at least somewhat empty since they were a package deal (of course the contestant can use the car washes and gas for their own car though), and winning the two secondary prizes and not the car made it feel like something less than a partial win.

Today is the 28th.  Good to see quick 1 turn wins in Race Game.  Even though Lisandra only won the gas and car washes in Master Key at least winning a car in the showcase made up for it.  Also it allowed us to know how much the combined total of those 2 prizes were for stat purposes.

Did you see how Lisandra looked when George said "by sending you home with not 2, not 4, but 6 new wheels"? It seemed to me like she was thinking "Huh?" or "What?". :)

I would agree though that seeing a motorcycle and a car revealed at the same time behind the same door would qualify as "shaking things up". Unusual visual, and I liked it.

A hump day reference in Cover Up?

That... is not what the "hump" in "hump day" refers to.

I know. That's why I find it a little surprising that The Price is Right of all shows would make that kind of subtle reference.

Drew's inconsistency is mind-boggling at times.

Last week during Pass The Buck, with choices left after the contestant picked the car, he asked them if they wanted to go on. Great!

Today, he let's Lisandra try the first key in the gas prize after it already opened the car washes. Not great!

I would have thought that 10 years would be enough to learn the nuances of the games.

He has always done that in Master Key. I don't remember him ever having the contestant try the key in the car lock after they won the first prize. As for Pass the Buck, he has to ask the contestant if they want to continue even if they win the car. You never know, there could be a contestant who decides to go for money in addition to the car one day.

I don't think it's that big of a deal. In today's scenario, I actually thought it added a little more suspense - with Lisandra using both keys on the gas, it kept me wondering whether the second key would also unlock the car.

We've had really bad reveals in Master Key before (for example, I remember a recent playing where the contestant won both keys, one of them being the car key, and Drew had the contestant use the car key first), but I wouldn't say this was one of them.

I hadn't really thought about this before, but the reality of death means that every day there are less people in the world than the day before.  In reality there are many more people in the world than this but for illustration: If one day there are 1000 people in the world and the next day 55 people die, now there are 945 people in the world. if 30 more die the next day now there are 915 people in the world. So we'll eventually become extinct as will all creatures as the same reality applies to dogs, cats, horses etc.

The Race Game playing was fantastic.   Lorraine was so assured of what she had to do and where she was going to put the price tags; she was the kind of contestant who Bob would have recognised was an LFAT and would have had her explain the rules to the viewers as he occasionally did.

Hump Day means Wednesday. They had a camel replacing Wednesday. Camels have humps.

Where's the reference, subtlety or confusion?
