Now we talk to Kevin for the last time this round. You're only $1300 off the lead.


(board spins)

Let's see what happens here.

---

(Kevin, please "STOP" with a letter from A-O.)

[koopakid17]

Stop! (O)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(ding)

(scattered cheers)

*Another* chance space. Could this be the one that adds a one to your total?







































(big bucks sfx)

(audience cheers)

No -- it's perhaps the next best thing. You're advancing to Big Bucks, Kevin, for how much?































(ding)

(audience cheers)

$3000. Now then...

...if you stop here, you'd have the lead. If you took the second chance, you could do better than $3000; you also could bust.

Either way, the final turn of the round belongs to James.

How do you play it, Kevin?

(audience shouts suggestions)

---

(Kevin, if you decide to take the second chance, please indicate same and "STOP" with a letter from A-R.)

[koopakid17]

I'll take the $3,000.

[dougmorrisontheair]

(scattered cheers)

Taking the money and the lead...

...as that 6 turns upside down into a 9. $9300 for Kevin. Now -- the last turn is with James.

James, the only way you can vault from last to first place is to land on a chance space and have that chance stick a 1 in front of the 2300 you currently have.

Next best thing would be to hit Big Bucks for $5000 -- which still gives you third place.

(board spins)

It may be a long shot -- but anything can happen.

---

(James, please "STOP" with a letter from A-O.)

[Deleted]

STOP! (A)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(ding)

(a few applaud)

Just $950.

James, you may end the round right here, take the money and eventually take $3250 into the final round -- or you may risk the $2300 you currently have on a second chance.

How do you play it?

(audience shouts suggestions)

---

(James, if you take the second chance, please indicate same and then "STOP" with a letter from A-R, inclusive.)

[Deleted]

Maury, I think I'll take a second chsnce! (M)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(audience cheers)

Okay, James, who did you bring to help you out? (audience laughs) Seriously, let's roll that board.

(board spins)

Let's see if you can get $10,000.

James: STOP!

(ding)

(a few applaud)

Lost a little bit for $800.

(theme plays)

James ends this round in last place with $3100. Bryan's in second with $7800. But the big story on Action News is Kevin gets advantages as he's leading with $9300.

We'll meet our players and starts Round 2 -- when you come back.

(audience cheers)

Thanks, Doc. We're about to start Round 2 -- but first, let's take a moment or two to meet our players -- starting with Kevin. Kevin, please tell us a little about yourself.

[koopakid17]

Okay, my name is Kevin Kolsen and I'm an accountant from Long Island, New York. When I'm not doing taxes, I'm reading, writing and working out at the local gym.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Nice range of interests. Thanks for joining us today, Kevin.

James, they tell me you came from Alabama to play our little game.

[Deleted]

Yup! I sure do! Also, a little birdie told me told me you had kinfolk in Enterprise. That's where we go to to go walmart. I live in Elba. A small town west of Enterprise. Btw, I grew up in Orlando and remember when our beloved announcer Mr. Doc Holliday was in radio there. I came across some airchecks of him btw!

[dougmorrisontheair]

Doc: Ah, so *you're* the one. Thanks for tuning in.

Doug: And hello to the gang back in Enterprise. Thanks for visiting us today. And Bryan, you've written about NASCAR. Which one track on the NASCAR circuit would you recommend visiting on raceday?

[Bryan]

Hadn't never actually been to a NASCAR racetrack, but I have been to the Talladega museum years back and little did I know at the time legendary singer Marty Robbins was once a race car driver. But back to the topic at hand, I would want to see the Daytona 500 one day.

[dougmorrisontheair]

I've been to Talladega twice and Daytona once. All those times have been time well spent. And, indeed, Marty lived a great life between auto racing and music.

Players, good luck to you all as we throw some questions your way. First, we've got to throw some spins your way.

(spins awarded sfx)

Kevin, since you finished Round 1 with the most money, we give you a head start of three spins. Bryan, you finished second in the last round; you get a two-spin head start. James -- just the one spin -- but you *can* do damage with that spin.

Now, we go to the questions. Three sets of answers and two questions for each set. The first question in the set is open to all and is worth three more spins. Those who didn't score on the first question are eligible to play the second chance question worth one spin.

Let's take a look at the board for our first set of answers.

Olivia Munn, Olivia Newton-John, Olivia Wilde -- three women who I could only *wish* were in my kitchen. (scattered laughter from the crowd) Here's the question

Which Olivia is the youngest?

Kevin?

[koopakid17]

Olivia Newton-John.

[dougmorrisontheair]

(scattered groans)

If -- Olivia Newton-John is the youngest in this trio, you'll score three spins. Is that right?

(buzz)

No -- sorry.

[Deleted]

Olivia Wilde!

[dougmorrisontheair]

(scattered applause)

James says Olivia Wilde. Is that right.

(ding)

(audience cheers)

Yes. Olivia Wilde was born in 1984, Olivia Munn was born in 1980 and Olivia Neutron-Bomb was born in 1948.

I'm showing my age, aren't I?  James now up to four spins. James, you'll sit this next question out while Bryan and Kevin play the second chance question...

(ding)

...involving Olivia Munn and Olivia Newton-John. 

One of those wrong answers from the last question is the right answer to this next question. Here it comes...

(Kevin buzzes in)

Kevin.

[koopakid17]

Now's when I say Olivia Newton-John.

[dougmorrisontheair]

(scattered cheers)

Kevin giving the ONJ a second chance. Is he right this time?

(ding)

(audience cheers)

There ya go. We commonly associate Olivia Newton-John with Australia. But she was born in Cambridge, England; she and her family relocated to Australia a few years after her birth.

(spins awarded sfx)

Olivia Munn, by the way, is a native of Oklahoma City. Kevin and James now with four spins each. Brian still with two as we bring in our next set of answers.

(ding)

Denny's, Hooters or McDonald's. (men in the crowd cheer) Before this turns into "The Man Show", here's the query.
