The $40,000 Chain Reaction (USA, Episode 13)

[Deleted]

Exodus?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Not EXODUS. Sorry. Here comes another letter.









(ding)

E-X-O-R.

[Deleted]

Exorcist!

[dougmorrisontheair]

There ya go. EXORCIST.









(ding; audience applause)

"Blue Exorcist" is the title of an anime TV series.

Okay -- 40 bucks. Next link's for $400.

James, you have just two spare letters left. You're going to have to nail at least one of these off the bat. Let's see if you can do it under EXORCIST -- starting with D.

[Deleted]

Demon?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Ooooh no. Not DEMON. There goes another letter.









(ding)

D-E.

[Deleted]

Devil!

[dougmorrisontheair]

Nailed it!










(ding; audience applause)

An exorcist works to cast out the devil.

Up to $400 James. Next link's for $4000. Let's see if you can nail another one here. Under DEVIL, there's a W.

[Deleted]

Woman!

[dougmorrisontheair]

Great hit song by Cliff Richard. "Devil Woman" is right.










(ding; audience applause)

Best to disclose that now before we get complaints of misogyny.

Well, James, you've made quite a comeback. You've got $4000 already. Two shots to make convert that money into $40,000. Under WOMAN, there's an O.

[Deleted]

Obstetrician?

[dougmorrisontheair]

James, if it's OBSTETRICIAN, you are $40,000 richer.









































(buzz)

Not it. Here comes your final spare letter.









(ding)

O-F.

One last shot for $40,000. Good luck, James. Think it over. Tell me what that last link is.

[Deleted]

Of Troy?

[dougmorrisontheair]

James, if it's OF TROY, you'll win $40,000.
















































(buzz)

No -- OF THE YEAR.

(audience groans -- then cheers)

"Woman of the Year" is the title of a classic 1942. It starred Katharine Hepburn and Spencer Tracy.

EXORCIST, I think, held you up. If you solved that link sooner and had about 2 or 3 spare letters on that last link, I'm sure you would've gotten the 40 grand.

I'm sure about this. You did win $4000 from the final chain. We'll take a break, find out how much we owe James and tell you where we all go from here -- after this.

(theme plays; audience applause)

[dougmorrisontheair]

Just enough time to congratulate our new champion, James Greek, on winning $9250.

James, you'll defend your crown for the first time on our next show. Remember, win five games in a row and you instantly win $40,000.

For all of us on the chain gang, Doug Morris saying make it a great day, keep the faith and treasure your loved ones.
