Todd jumped really high off the floor when he was called on down...and when he saw the car, his jump shook out his valuables and everything out of his pockets.

Janice and Nikki wheel in the Dice Game table.

The first number in the price is...

▒ ▒ 1 ▒ ▒

▒ █ – █ ▒

▒ █ – █ ▒

▒ █ – █ ▒

▒ █ – █ ▒

Is the 2nd number a 2? No! Todd guesses HIGHER.
Is the 3rd number a 2? No! Todd guesses HIGHER.

His next attempt doesn't quite make it to the line, despite all his energy, and the audience boos him. The roll after that is even weaker.

Is the 4th number a 6? No! We all know that it's LOWER.
Is the 5th number a 4? No! Todd guesses HIGHER.

▒ ▒ 1 ▒ ▒

Surprisingly, Bob honors a request from Todd to change the 5th digit guess to LOWER.

Light up the rest!

▒ ▒ 1 ▒ ▒

H 6 ⚁ █ ▒

▒ █ ⚅ 3 L

▒ 5 ⚃ █ L

Dammit! To think Bob shouldn't have allowed the change in the first place anyway, since the 4 was already lit up.

Todd will be back for the Showcase Showdown after our final game.

Bob learned that Todd is a paramedic in Honolulu, but he's working out for the Ironman. If there's any jumping, he's ready. Also, whatever number Todd spins, Bob won't allow him to change it.
