On A Roll (CBS, Episode 15)

[dougmorrisontheair]

Away goes the 10 -- (ding) -- and now...

(alarm goes off)

...Tiffany, I think your toast is ready.

(scattered laughter from the crowd) (quick shot of Tiffany at announcer's podium laughing and smiling)

(ding)

No -- it means, Kourtney, you have five tries to naturally roll a 4. Roll anything but a 4 and you score $50 more. But if it's a double, that's still a strike.

You must come up with a 1 and 3 combination in five chances in order to win that $35,000.

Korrina's returned your dice. You're still on a roll.

Folks, chant "one-three" please for good luck, okay?

(audience cheers; chants "one -- three -- one -- three -- one -- three...")

When you're ready, roll 'em.

(Kourtney rolls)

Got a 6.

(ding)

Four more tries, Korrina. Go get that big money.

(Kourtney rolls)

Wild roll -- but...

(ding)

...can't get a fifth token and you've got to roll that 4 naturally. Maybe this will be the time to do it.


(Kourtney rolls)

(burst of cheers)

YES!!!!!

(dings; win theme plays; audience cheers)

And here's the impressive thing about this -- not *ONE* strike.

Kourtney, you've now cracked the $70,000 barrier in cash winnings.

And -- no rest for the weary -- because we're going to dive right into a chance to win a fantastic prize. Tiffany, remind us what we've yet to give away this week.

(cut to Tiffany at announcer's podium)

Tiffany: Well -- there is that Florida vacation which we could give away later. But, Kourtney, right now, you're playing for -- A NEW CAR!

(board game moves stage left)

(car theme plays; audience cheers)

Tiffany: The Mercedes-Benz CLS550 Coupe is a luxurious ride. It comes with the Premium 1 Package plus high performance tires, leather/wood steering wheel and much more. This fantastic car is worth $79,735. Good luck, Kourtney!

(FF reveal sfx)

Good luck indeed. Wally's already set up the car game. He has randomly hidden the word "car" in one of those numbered screens. With the four tokens you earned from Game 1 and the wild rolls, you may select up to four numbers. Pick the number that hides the magic word "car" -- and you will better than double your total winnings.

(bursts of cheers)

So -- all at once, Kourtney, please pick your numbers.

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Bump for Kourtney.)

[pathfinder20]

Let's go with 2, 3, 5, 6

[dougmorrisontheair]

All righty then. Wally, please cover 2, 3, 5 and 6.

(ding)

We'll now reveal the numbers in the order you selected them, Kourtney -- starting with 2. Wally, did you hide "car" in 2?

(buzz)

(audience groans)

No. Sorry. But -- still three shots at it. Speaking of 3, Wally, did you hid "car" there?

(buzz)

(audience groans)

Negative. Keep the faith, friends. Maybe he's won the car through the courtesy of screen number 5. Did he?

(buzz)

(audience groans)

No me gusta.

Well, Kourtney, it's down to 6. It's either the car or a consolation cash prize of $2000. Wally, Wally, give us the news.

(dings; DSW sound effects play; win theme plays; audience cheers)

You won it!!!!

(Kourtney jumps up and down; hugs Korrina; runs to car where Paige is; hugs Paige; hops in car; waves to everyone)

FINALLY!!!!

(Doug walks over with everyone else; shakes Kourtney's hand)

Kourtney, you finally got the car. That means if you win the next game, you'll have a shot at up to $120,000 and that 007-themed weekend getaway in Florida.

Hey, Wally, what does the scouter say about the champ's winnings level?

(scattered laughter and cheers)

(audience cheers)

$149,935. Back with Game 2 -- after this.

(theme plays; audience cheers)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(fade from black)

Doug: (to floor director) So -- we have to play -- how many commercials to pay Kourtney?

(scattered laughter from the crowd)

Oh -- hi -- we're back.

Time for the second half of On A Roll. Kourtney won the first game, the car from Wally and $35,000 from Lucky 7.

Mark, in order to stick around, you must solve this next puzzle correctly, have your money roll total higher than a 6 -- and then win at least $35,000 from Lucky 7.

Our guest models have changed jobs. Korrina Rico is at the game board.

Paige Collings joins us here at the table.

Let's start the second half with a new name game.

(FF reveal sfx)

Seven letters in this famous surname. Here's your clue.

He was on a roll -- as television's comedic poet laureate.

(ding)

(Kourtney and Mark, please PM me your answer and a buzz code from 1-100.)

(Mark buzzes in)

Mark?

Mark: Russell

(dings; audience applause)

Nipsey Russell. One of the greatest comedians ever.

Mark, please step in the box. You get first crack at uncovering letters -- off of this board.

(FF reveal sfx; Korrina poses by numbered and blocked spaces)

Three-word clue at the top, another three-word clue in the middle and just one word at the bottom.

(Paige hands Mark the dice)

You've got as many as four chances to uncover letters, Mark, because you -- are on a roll.


(Mark rolls)

And we've got a 4 and a 3...

...or a 7 for the first roll of Game 2.

[GameShowNetwork]

5 and 2 on the top

[dougmorrisontheair]

No can do, Buckaroo.

You may take any 4 and 3 -- or play the sum and take any 7.

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Bump for Mark.)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(time passes) (buzz buzz)

That's time. The computer will randomly choose for you.

(ding)

It's giving you the 4 at the bottom and the 3 from...


(ding)

...the middle. Now, Mark, you may guess the middle or bottom clue -- or roll again.

[GameShowNetwork]

roll again

[dougmorrisontheair]

All right. Just avoid those doubles.

(Mark rolls)

And you do.

Now -- Mark -- you may take any 2 *and* 4 -- or play the sum and take any 6.

Please remember -- you can't take any other numbers that add up to 6.

[GameShowNetwork]

4 and 2 on the top

[dougmorrisontheair]

That's how we roll as you take...

(Korrina touches screen)

...an O and...


(Korrina touches screen)

...an A. With those two vowels, Mark, would you like to guess the top clue or roll again?

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Bump for Mark.)

[GameShowNetwork]

roll them again

[dougmorrisontheair]

All right. Kourtney's over here want you to get a double.

(Mark rolls)

But you don't. It's a 3 and a 1...

...or a 4.

[GameShowNetwork]

3 and 1 on the bottom

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Korrina touches screen)

You get an H and...

(Korrina touches screen)

...a W. Mark, care to guess the bottom clue or take the last roll of the round?

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Bump for Mark.)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(time passes) (buzz buzz)

No decision in time -- but you're still entitled to the final roll of the round. Make it count.


(Mark rolls)

And -- this is just an observation folks. We haven't had a double since Kourtney's bonus round started -- perhaps since the latter stages of the first main game.

In any event, a 6 and a 4 or a 10, Mark.

[GameShowNetwork]

6 and 4 in the middle

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Korrina touches screen)

Wrapping up the round with an A and...

(Korrina touches screen)

...an H. Mark, that was the last roll of the round. Take a guess of the second clue?

Remember, if you're wrong or want to pass on a guess, you and Kourtney play a new name game.

[GameShowNetwork]

I'll try guessing the second row.

TO SAY HELLO

[dougmorrisontheair]

(dings; audience applause)

That's it.

Now -- Mark -- with a correct guess of the clue, you have a chance to solve the puzzle.

The right answer wins the game. A wrong guess triggers another name game.

[GameShowNetwork]

I'll try it.

ALOHA

[dougmorrisontheair]

(scattered applause)

For the game -- is it -- aloha?











































(dings; SCSD win theme plays; audience cheers)

Yes! Well done!

Mark, just for fun, do you want to guess the other clues?

[GameShowNetwork]

Yeah, I'll guess the other two just for funsies.

Top: TO SAY GOODBYE
Bottom: HAWAII

[dougmorrisontheair]

I think he's right and all over it.

(FF reveal sfx)

Yes. To say goodbye or to say hello in Hawaii, you say the word -- aloha.

(Paige places dice near Mark's buzzer)

Well, Kourtney, that was a quick game. 'Fraid aloha means goodbye -- for now. Paige will walk you to the comfy chair in the front row. We'll see you at the end of the match, Kourtney Wilson.

(audience applause) (Kourtney and Paige exit the table area)

Okay, Mark. You've cleared the first hurdle. It's all up to Lady Luck from here and it starts with the money roll.

Remember, it's worth $5000 per point and determines the maximum payoff for Lucky 7. Kourtney set the high score of the day at $35,000. This means the money roll has to be higher than a 6 for more than $30,000.

Good luck and give 'em a roll.

(Mark rolls)

(audience groans)

Well -- drat. A puny total of 3 for $15,000.

(someone screams, "Make it wild!") (scattered laughter and applause)

Only if you're willing to pony up at least $20,000 more, pal.

(more laughter)

Well, Mark, sorry *that* just happened. But you do have a chance at $15,000 and a new car -- after this.

(theme plays; audience cheers)

---

(theme plays)

[dougmorrisontheair]

And we're back with On A Roll -- and Mark's bonus round of Lucky 7.

Mark, since it's mathematically impossible to meet or beat the high score of the day, we're not going to display it. But we still give you a chance at a nice pay day.

To win top dollar, you must eliminate those numbers, 4 through 10 inclusive, by rolling our dice. Anytime the sum of your roll matches one of those numbers, that number disappears and you win $500. If you repeat one of those sums, it's $50.

Doubles you still want to avoid -- because a double means we'll assess one strike. Three strikes and it's game over -- but you hang on to the money you've scored.

On the positive side, you did earn a couple of tokens for Wally's car game.

(ding)

(scattered laughter from the crowd)

And -- heheh -- 1 of those tokens 4 U came courtesy of winning Game 2. The second you got because you solved the puzzle with just one clue fully exposed. A wild roll of 3 or 11 could give you another token or clear out a number. But remember, you're allowed up to four tokens.

When one number's left, you'll have up to five tries to roll that sum naturally.

If you can clean house and get rid of all the numbers, look right in that camera and tell us how much you'll win.
