And that is? Bill: Dale Carnegie(ding)That's right. [STEVEN] | [JAMES] | [BILL] [$18500] [$18500] [$18000]
(main theme)And you have $18,000. That ends Round 2. This is the closest game I've ever seen. You're only in second place by $500. Or is it third? Ah, who cares? Coming up, we'll be playing the Knockout Round, where only one of you will survive! This could be DEVASTATING!!!!! (cheers and applause) (fade to commercial)
(fade in, cheers and applause) (theme) Shadoe: (VO) And now, back to TKO and the Knockout Round!KNOCKOUT!Greg: Thank you, Shadoe. Yes, it's the Knockout Round, where only one of you will survive for a chance at our Bonus Bank, which we are starting at... [BONUS BANK] [$10,000]
$10,000! (audience cheers) Up to this point, you've been building up your defenses. Well, now the time has come for you to fight to the death! No more categories, we'll just have three choices and a variable amount. When you buzz in, a randomizer will stop on a value between $1,000 and $10,000. If you answer correctly, then you'll knock that opponent out, take the value from his score and put it in the Bonus Bank. The object of this round is to completely obliterate your opponent by bringing their scores to zero. The last person standing wins the game, the money they have left, and will go on to the Bonus Bout for thousands of dollars! (audience cheers) Now, does anyone have any questions?
