1st IUFB - A new projection TV: Zenith 50-inch projection television with picture-in-picture and stereo surround sound, the ultimate home theater experience (Rosie, with "Fingers" surprised to be on TV)

Rod is cracking up while reading prize copy.

|	THOMAS	|	LEAH	|	JASON	|	SHIRLEY	|
|	$3700	|	$650	|	$1400	|	$800	|

Bob noticed the "difference of opinion" in the bids.

Actual Retail Price: $1,900!

Jason is part of a group from Ithaca, which Bob thinks is a real party school. But they study a lot, too, as Jason insists.

Jason is playing Freeze Frame for a trip to Japan: Fly with a guest round-trip coach from L.A. to Tokyo aboard Korean Air, for a 6-night stay at the Crowne Plaza Metropolitan centrally located near many tourist attractions and minutes from the business district (Charlotte).

Jason watches the show...but he hasn't seen this game. Bob reminds us that there are a lot of people to choose from who are also at Ithaca.

	51 15
92		87
62		33
	75 24

Jason freezes at 51 and 15. He pulls the lever so hard that Bob wonders if he destroyed the prop. Didn't it cost $5,700 to build that prop?

Reveal the price!

	51 15
92	$3324	87
62	––––	33
	75 24

We can't charge him for the prop after that. Jason might be able to pay it off if he wins some cash in the Showcase Showdown.


The next calldown needs to be careful! Juliano, who is also a bit older, fell backwards on the steps, but she's on her feet again!

And Bob even referred to her as his kind of gal...and just as he said that, Juliana disappeared. Bob thought they pulled a trap door.

2nd IUFB - A fabulous diamond tennis bracelet: Jewels by Angelo tennis bracelet featuring just over 1 karat of diamonds each set in a round 14-karat gold setting (Rosie)

|	Thomas	|	Leah	|	ULIANA	|	Shirley	|
