Nope. That last word was difficult, it was "Method".
Still we got 3 out of 4!

(BONG-BONG-BONG-BONG!)
Great teamwork, guys, and great clues! METHOD was a tough one, so I don't blame you for that. You've won an extra $1,500 so far, and that's the minimum you'll win. But, you could parlay that into $15,000 with the right word.
Bill, here's how it will work. I'll show you one more Password, and you'll get to set your clue maximum. If you think you need three clues to convey the final Password, then you can play for double stakes, or $3,000 (Light applause). If you think you need just two clues, the stakes go up to 5 times the amount, or $7,500 (heavier applause). But, Bill, if you think you can get Raymond to say the Password with one clue, and one clue only, then you may play for ten times the amount or....
$15,000! (Audience applauds and cheers loudly)
Bill, please check your monitor for your Final Password (he does so).
What's your maximum? Three clues, two clues, or one clue?

I'll try it in two clues Jon. Let me know when I may begin.

You have a maximum of two clues. Do it within two clues and it's $7,500 for you. Otherwise, you still get the $1,500.
First clue, Bill.

No, sorry  Tough word, even with 3 clues I think... "BEHAVIOR" |

(BUZZZ! Lose horn plays)
ME: Those were excellent clues, but the word just wasn't coming. Still, you picked up another $1,500. We'll come back to sum it all up momentarily!

ME: We are back with our first champions, Bill and Raymond! Came up short on BEHAVIOR, I'm afraid. I think "temperament" would have been a good clue. In any event, you are coming back for our next episode, building on your total so far...
$2,500
ME: And you'll keep playing until you are defeated. How far will they go? Find out next time! See you then!
(So, what did you think? My intent is to make one episode 3 full rounds - either 3 main game rounds, or 2 main games and 1 bonus, with the chance of straddling. What did you think also of the best-score-after-5 format? And the Bonus? Any feedback is welcome.)

Overall I thought this was executed very very well.
What you could perhaps do, if you want to avoid straddling, is kind of do what "Name That Tune" would do.
Round 1 = 10 points
Round 2 = 15 points
Round 3 = 25 points
If tied after three rounds a one word playoff tie-breaking game to determine the match.
