Oh goody, it's more time-filling banter! Bob reminds Mildred that she was one of the first four contestants called down and she's still down there because she hasn't bid right (Way to shame her, Bob!). She was a student and recently graduated from USC with a degree in Psychology and wants to work on her masters. Bob asks what Dock does and as Dock is speaking, he is rudely interrupted by the applause in response to Mildred's occupation. After all that we learn that Dock works at Howard Manufacturing. Bonnie is also a recent graduate from Boston University going on to law school. Bob remarks that they are all intellectuals and that everyone else has been coming on stage. After all this, Johnny, who will be our fourth contestant?

James, come on down! We learn that James is a salesman- a women's undergarment salesman which illicits a wild response from the audience.
