Let's go with the "eyes" have it

I neglected to mention that you picked up both bonus prizes: the GPS worth $400, and the luggage worth $500. In any event, let's try THE "EYES" HAVE IT. All of these answers contain the word "eye" or "eyes," so keep that in mind. And the point value is...(BONG!) (Audience oooohs) The big one! 200 points! Darion and Matt did not want to see you get that, but look at 'em...they've already got their hands on their buzzers, waiting to pounce if you are wrong. Indeed, it'll be up to them if you do miss it. Tough one coming, but let's see what happens. James... Edgar will play the theme song from a movie. Listen and name the movie. Edgar, play it.
(Edgar plays this)
"See reflections on the water. More than darkness in the depths. See him surface in every shadow. On the wind, I feel his breath!"

He did it again! (Applause) James is at 740, Darion and Matt at 90 each. Let's close the gap, Darion and Matt. Next toss-up...
When The Rolling Stones made their first TV appearances in the U.S., they had to change some of their questionable lyrics and titles. For instance, the producers of "The Ed Sullivan Show" required them to change "Let's Spend the Night Together" to what?

SEE THE U.S.A. we shall...Blake, how many points? (BONG!) 120. Darion and Matt, be ready on the buzzer. James... Considered by many to be one of the greatest country songs of all time, this 1969 Glen Campbell hit stormed the pop and country charts, much like the hurricane that hit this city in 1900. Name the city, and you've named the song.

Right you are! (Applause) With only one question to go in this round, Darion and Matt won't be able to catch up, even with the Catch-Up Question, so we will simply play this last go-round. James, this will be a chance for you to add to your score of 880, while Darion and Matt, you'll try to deny him of extra money. Here's the toss-up question, hands on buzzers...
Complete this analogy with a manner of "speakin'": Bill Anderson is to "Whisperin'" as Mel Tillis is to...what?

There you go! (James realizes his mistake) Notice that I said "a manner of speakin'." By adding the G, you changed the pronunciation. He's known as "Stutterin'" Mel Tillis. Darion, let's go to the Bonus Board. Pick your category, please. You've got WHO'S THAT GIRL?, MOTOWN, and BEFORE THEY WERE FAMOUS.

Going back to that one, and it's worth....(Blake touches the screen - BONG!) 100 points. Matt, if Darion is wrong, you'll get to try the question. Darion... In the late 1980s, she worked as a tour guide at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum and appeared on the Nashville Network show "You Can Be A Star." In 1990, Garth Brooks chose her to sing backup on "No Fences;" ten years later, she married him. Name this singer.

ME: She's the one! (Applause) Leann Rimes and Trisha Yearwood do sound alike, though, so I can see why you'd get them confused.
EDGAR: Plus, they both had hits with the song "How Do I Live?".
ME: That's true! They did! (BONG-BONG-BONG-BONG-BONG!) That bell means that Round Two is over, so let's check the scores.
JAMES: 880 points DARION: 110 points MATT: 190 points
As you can see, even if Darion and Matt got the 100-point Catch-Up Question, and James missed it, there would be no lead change. Therefore, the game is over! James, you're our first "Fandango" champion! (Theme plays as the audience applauds. Blake and I go behind the podiums to talk to the contestants.) Darion and Matt, what can I say? You ran into a buzzsaw. You held up well, though, and we've got some great parting gifts, please come back and join us again, will you? (Blake and I shake hands with Darion and Matt, as they congratulate James). James, you did it, my friend! (Blake and I stand on either side of him, hands on his shoulders) You've won with 880 points, which we will convert to $880 cash. Add that to the two bonus prizes, and you've won, so far, $1,780! But, you'll have a chance to win thousands more in the Fandango Grand Slam, so stay with us!

Edgar has reloaded all the categories, so I'd like you to choose any THREE categories. The order in which you say them is the order in which we play them, so choose carefully. (Audience yells suggestions as James thinks about his three categories)

All right. Blake will touch all those screens now, in that order, and reveal your gifts. (She does so...BONG! BONG! BONG!) You got a BED AND MATTRESS, followed by a BUMPER POOL TABLE, then a WII U PACKAGE! (Applause) Edgar, tell James about those gifts (theme plays). EDGAR: For Question 1, you'll be playing for this bedding package. From Bassett, the Redin Park Queen-Sized Panel Bed comes in dark walnut. Featuring clean lines and a sleek style with Cathedral walnut veneers and a Satin Nickel finish. Plus, a Sealy Posturepedic mattress with HyperSoft foam and multiple layers of advanced memory foam for a great night's sleep. Approximate retail value: $1,660. For Question 2, you'll be playing for a bumper pool table. From Berner Billiards, manufacturer of fine gaming equipment since 1892, comes this black slate bumper pool table with chrome cabinet corners, rail casting, and slate bed. Fully assembled, this table comes with two 48" cues, ten balls, brush, and chalk. From americansupersports.com, a prize worth $875. And for Question 3, you'll be playing for this Nintendo Wii U package. You'll receive the Super Mario Maker Wii U package, containing a Wii U system with the new Super Mario Maker game. Create your own levels from the world of Super Mario and challenge others to play them. Get your inspiration from the Super Mario Maker Idea Book, or challenge your friends to four other best-selling Wii U games that you choose. Total value of this prize is $540. Grand total of all three gifts is $3,075! (Applause) ME: Nice choices, James! Now, a couple of things to remember: you must answer questions correctly to claim the gifts, you may stop and take what you've won after any correct answer, and a wrong answer forfeits all gifts. Your first category is LOVE SONGS, and you'll be playing for the Bed and Mattress package. Good luck, James. First question... Composed by LaForrest Cope, this love song was chosen as the debut single from Whitney Houston's debut album. It quickly became a smash hit for her, even though Ann Landers criticized it for being too suggestive. Was that song..."Saving All My Love For You" or "You Give Good Love"?

ME: All right, we have your answer. We're going to go to Edgar to see if you're right. Edgar, he said the song was "You Give Good Love." Is he right?
EDGAR: Both were big hits for Whitney Houston..."You Give Good Love," huh? Well, James, I don't know about your love life, but I do know that you give good answers. That's right! (CLANG-CLANG-CLANG-CLANG-CLANG! Applause)
ME: Good work, James! You've won the bedding package. Next category is CROSSOVER HITS, and you're going for the bumper pool table. Want to try it?
