(pre-opening, at Greg's office at 20th Century Fox; Greg is on the phone) Greg: So, they're shooting a pilot in Australia, huh? Fantastic. Stacey and I might make a trip up there sometime. (pause) OK, thanks. Bye. (I hang up, then go back to reviewing some notes, my intercom goes off, I press the button) Yes? Secretary: (VO) Mr. Palmer, you have a call on line two. A Doctor Bruce Banner.Greg: (I press the button again) Oh yeah. I've been expecting him. (I let go, then turn to the audience) Working on customizations to the Hulkbuster add-on. (I press the intercom button again) Thanks, Cindy. I'll pick him up here. (I let go of the button, then pick up the phone, hitting line two) Bruce! Hey, what's up? (pause) You're angry. OK, and what else is new? (pause) Stark told me you were always angry. About what? (pause) Ohhhh, so you're actually angry about the Green Giant not showing up when you need him. Oh. Hey, this kid in Tucson uses some sort of device to control his powers. So he can Hulk out whenever he wants. (pause) How do I know this? The Internet. (pause) Yeah, his name is Amadeus Cho. Yes, that's actually his name, Bruce. (suddenly, I check my clock) Hey, Bruce, I gotta get going. Have a show to do. Why don't you come in and watch? (pause) You're... still in Wakanda. OK. OK. Talk to you later. (pause) Bye. (I hang up, then look to the audience) He's still in Wakanda. (the phone rings again) Hello? Burton? (pause) Family emergency? Got it. (I hang up)
[OPENING THEME]
Marc Summers: (VO) This week, our contestants are competing for a house full of IKEA furniture, a home theater, or a cruise around the world!
And one of our contestants will win everything, including this custom Mach 1 Mustang......
And as much as two million dollars in cash!
It's Clearance $ale Week on.....
(echo) And now, here's the star of our show, GREG PALMER!(wild cheers and applause as the doors open and I run to my lectern)Greg: Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to $ale of the Century. Yes, it is Clearance $ale Week, and no, that was not Burton Richardson. Burton had a family emergency, so we found, at the last minute, the current announcer for Double Dare, Marc Summers! (audience cheers) And during the break, we're going to slime him senseless. No, we can't do that, Viacom won't let us. How are things going on Double Dare? (shot of Marc) Marc: Great. I'm doing Harvey's job, Liza's doing a great job taking over for me, and I get to help introduce the show to a new generation of kids. And I'm going to host an episode this season. (audience cheers) Greg: Hey, that is great news. Now, the reason he's here is because he's announced for Grundy before. Isn't that right? Marc: Yes, indeed. Bruce Forsyth's Hot Streak. Did it a few months before I got Double Dare.Greg: Yes, that is fantastic. Now, here to introduce the challengers is Stacey Wren! (Stacey walks out to cheers and applause) Hiya, Stacey. Stacey: Hiya, Greg. Oooh, who's the new....?Greg: Now, Stacey, don't be impolite. That's Marc Summers. The man, the myth, the legend. Stacey: What'd he do?Greg: Fall into a giant ice cream sundae without having a psychotic meltdown on air. (audience reacts) And that's all I'm going to say. Who are our challengers? (As Stacey introduces the contestants, models of the opposite gender escort them to their seats)Stacey: Well, first we have a caretaker whose interests include WWE, game shows & video games. From Milwaukee, Wisconsin, here's Antonio Gray. Our next player is a cashier and part-time cheerleader. From Council Bluffs, Iowa, here's Matt Ringgenberg. And finally, we have an international competitor. He comes to us all the way from Alicante, Spain. Please welcome to the West Coast, Sergio Roman Rodriguez. (audience cheers) Greg: OK then. Thank you. Let's meet our players. Sergio, coming all the way from Alicante, Spain. Now, we don't have any singing and dancing pumpkins or secretaries around here. Still, it should be a fun show. Please tell us some more about yourself. |

I will Greg, I'm Sergio Roman, I'm a language student. And I'm focused on game shows from Net Game Shows like "Cardiators" and other future projects like my own version of "Wheel Of Fortune" or the Disney edition of "Cash Trapped", by the way it will be broadcast on NBC Daytime!

Sir, you must be quite mistaken. Anything Disney-branded belongs on ABC. Yes, I can say that because Disney owns them, and we will soon be bought by them, too. You're a language student. What languages are you studying, aside from English?

You've forgot Spanish. Anyway aside from English and Spanish. I also know French, Catalan (Well, Valencià), a bit of Italian, and many others.

You're right, I did forget Spanish. You want to be a world traveler, then. Well, we'll just see if we can't finance that tonight. Good luck to you, y buena suerte.
Matt, you're a cashier and part-time cheerleader. Which team do you cheer for?

Oh, Special Olympics. Hey, Marc, didn't Double Dare 2000 have a Special Olympics episode?
Marc: Yes, we did, and so did GUTS. May we please move on?
Greg: OK, OK. Didn't mean to keep dragging you into Memory Lane. Good luck to you, Matt.
Finally, we have Antonio Gray from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. You're a caretaker. What or who do you take care of?

Ohhhhh.... sorry to hear that. Oh, what's this? (something pops up on my screen) Ladies and gentlemen, this is television history. Sergio, I have a message here from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. You're being arrested and deported. (audience reacts as ICE agents enter the set and arrest him live on the air, taking him away [IRL: Sergio, due to your one-week ban from NGC, we're replacing you.]) And this is where we edit.
(Edit)
What are you taking care of now, if anything, Antonio?

(Marc and his wife, Alice, are working together to make a pie)Stacey: Matt and Antonio, they say a woman's place is in the kitchen. I'd like to argue with them, personally. Anyway, with this range, you won't have to spend too much time in it. The stove top has four sealed burners with flame settings ranging from VariSimmer for gentle simmering to 15,000 BTUs for powerful cooking capacity. The large-capacity convection oven in this dual fuel Viking range preheats rapidly, so you start baking faster. And that means getting out of the kitchen. Furnished by Viking. It's normally priced at....But on $ale of the Century, it's yours tonight for only....(audience cheers as I join them) Greg: Apparently, there's a back entrance to the stage I don't know about. Marc, what are you doing up here? Alice: (to Marc) I've got this, dear. (to Greg) He's helping me make a pie and acting as your co-host.Greg: I already have a co-host, Mrs. Summers. It's Stacey. Marc is my announcer. I do not need another George Gray. Alice: Oh, so now you're complaining about George Gray, now. What does that have to do with my husband? Apparently, the George Gray you have couldn't make it
tonight, so you call my Marc, and now when he attempts to support you, you complain. Oy....(Marc and Alice get in an argument, their mics are turned off) Greg: Apparently, Mrs. Berkowitz now hates me. Matt, Antonio, I'm sure either one of you will be able to cook things well on this range. Anyone want to make me an offer?

1. A group of engineering students from Purdue University reported that it took an average of 364 licks to get to the center of what? (buzzcode: 88) *Mark buzzes in (43)*Mark? Mark: Oreo cookie(buzzer)Only if the Oreo was the size of your head. (audience chuckles) No no, a Tootsie Roll Pop, or Tootsie Pop. Sorry, Mark. Gotta drop you to $10.
Mark: $10
Matt: $25
Antonio: $30
2. What Italian dish's name translates literally as "cooking pot"? (buzzcode: 5) *Antonio buzzes in (12)*Antonio? Antonio: Pentola(buzzer)Uh uh. Lasagna. Although I'm curious. Marc, you're a foodie. Have you ever had a pentola? Marc: No. Greg: See, Marc hasn't had one, and he's an expert. Antonio, I'll have to take $5 off your score.
Mark: $10
Matt: $25
Antonio: $25
3. True or false: Alan Thicke landed the male lead role on Growing Pains when he offered to write the theme song. (buzzcode: 70) *Mark buzzes in (53)*Mark? Mark: falseThat's absolutely right, you go back up to $15. (ding)
Mark: $15
Matt: $25
Antonio: $25
Speaking of Alan Thicke, most involved with Growing Pains did not want him, but when no one reading for the part fit the bill, he was auditioned and hired. Sort of a last-resort measure. The theme song, by the way, was written by Steve Dorff and John Bettis. Although Alan probably could've come up with a decent theme, too. [FAME GAME]Now, we're up to the Fame Game. We're putting $10 up on the board, looking for a famous person. (whoosh as the puzzle board appears on screen)
