Actual retail price... $2,095.  Punchy, you've made it!

(Multiple dings)

Meet me over here, Punchy, by the rightmost door.  We're a little short on time - doggone hurricane - so we're going to play something of a quicky.  Still, I think you won't be disappointed with this offering of prizes!

(Door #3 opens)

"It's a sofa, a crib set, and a china cabinet!"

(Applause)

"First, from the David Leather Collection comes this Italian Sofa!  This high quality sofa holds a minimum of 720 pounds of pressure per inch.  The wooden frame is composed of seasoned European hardwoods; the seat and back cushions are composed of polyurethane foam cores with a high quality Dacron fiber topper for comfort.

Second, from Stanley's myHaven Collection comes the Young American Crib Set!  The set, consisting of a crib, a dresser and a changing station, has a Heart of Pine finish.  The crib features a spring frame assembly with three height adjustments.  The dresser has four drawers.  The changing station includes a pad and safety strap.

Finally, from American Drew's Beacon Ridge Collection comes this large China Cabinet!  The cabinet, of solid rubberwood construction with pecan veneers, has a rustic pecan finish.  It features 12 bottle capacity on removable wine rack, two doors with three adjustable shelves in each, three pull drawers, silver tray, and two adjustable shelves in the center.

There they are, Chinook!"


Now, Punchy - your game is Most Expensive.  Very simple... we have those three prizes, the sofa, the crib set and the china cabinet.  All you have to do, quite surprisingly, is tell us which one of those three prizes is the most expensive.  And after you do that, we'll give you all three.

Well, let's do this rationally.  :P

I don't need a crib because I don't have a baby.

I don't have any fine China, either.  :P

I'm a couch potato.  :-P

So....obviously...give me the crib!

Alright, although I don't see what part of that logic is rational, he's chosen #2 - the crib.

What's the price of #1, the sofa?



(Ding)

$1,950.

What's the price of #3, the china cabinet?



(Ding)

$2,419.

If the crib set is worth more than $2,419, you're a winner.

What is it?



(Multiple dings)

And it is!  Congratulations, Punchy.

We'll be back with our second showcase showdown, right after this.

And we're back.  Punchy, that Most Expensive win gave you the biggest win total, so you're spinning last.  Before him will be Rob, who took a valuable bribe in Temptation.  And our first spinner is Pathfinder, who won Safe Crackers.

Each of you needs to inform me of two numbers between 1-20 inclusive and the lowest amount you would be willing to stay on.

5 and 21, for my birthday!  :-)

Wait, no 21?  :-o

5 and......20. And I'll stop if I will win. You'll have to ask me about a spin-off, though.  :P

Pathfinder, spin that wheel!

He's given it a powerful twirl - here comes that dollar.  Stop, wheel, stop!



(Groans from the audience)

So close - 15 cents.  I would assume that you'd like to spin again - unfortunately my contract doesn't allow for those types of assumptions, and you didn't tell me.  Keep it or spin again, Pathfinder?

Here's his second spin... looking for anything less than 90.  Uh oh - less than 90, I said!



(Horn)

Ugh - not a very friendly wheel in this show.  I'm sorry, Pathy, but that puts you over by a nickel... thanks for playing.

Rob, yer' up.  Here's the first spin...



25 cents.  You want to spin again, I think?

"Yes."

Do it.

90 cents is too much!  One dollar is too much!



Hmm... still alive, at least, with a total of 30 cents.

(Ding)

It comes down to you, Punchy.  Beat 30 cents and you're in.  And we'll soon know the result...



That'll do it!  Thanks for playing, Rob - hope you had fun.  Punchy, you'll be in the showcases... right after this!
