The very same year that had a Bush vs Gore Presidential Election... the year 2000 is correct! And another 25 bucks goes to our three contenders. [CHEERS, APPLAUSE][TIME'S UP TONE]That signal means that round 1 is over. So far, Nels is in the lead with $250, Greg is in second place with $200, and Kevin is in third place with $150. Still ahead, we'll chat with the players and then, play the second round. Find out who's gonna drive home in a brand new automobile when Split Second continues... right after this. Stick around, folks...

Well, I'm working for our local minor-league baseball team, the Durham Bulls, as a concession stand cashier. In my spare time, I enjoy watching TV, playing games on my phone, and participating in clinical trials as a healthy volunteer. Believe it or not, I earned $200 in two days for mostly blood and urine collection.

Let's hope that you'll earn a whole lot more. Good luck to you, Greg.
Kevin, please tell everyone about yourself...

I sure will. I'm an accountant from Long Island, New York. I've been working for about seven years now and when I'm not doing taxes, I'm reading, writing or at the gym. I'm on vacation in Atlanta and I like the city so far.

*** DUE TO AN ERROR, A NEW QUESTION IS NOW REPLACED *** Good luck to you, Nels. Now that we've gotten to know our contestants, let's take a look at the scores... At the end of the first round, Kevin is in third place with $150... Greg is in second with $200... and Nels is in first place with $250. In round 2, the dollar amounts are now doubled. If the three of you give me a correct answer, you'll each score $50. If the two of you give me the correct answer, you'll each earn $100. If one person give me the correct answer, we'll give you $200. And if that person is the only one who answers it correctly, will also win a Singleton prize. Here comes the first question. Time to play cashier. I will ask you to determine the correct amount of change for each of the following transactions:$8.43, customer pays with a $20 bill... $6.19, customer pays with a $10 bill... $37.73, customer pays with a $100 bill. *You have 24 hours to PM your buzz-code between 1 and 100. Do not use the same buzz-code for this round... or you'll be on lockdown. |

You need to give the customer who paid with a $10 bill $3.81.

$3.81 is the correct sum, Kevin.

I'm a cashier. $8.43, out of $20. Eleven dollars and 57 cents is your change.

That is correct.

I could have hosted "Supermarket Sweep" instead. [AUDIENCE LAUGHS]Anyways, you're right as well, Nels. $50 goes to all three players. [APPLAUSE]
I will list three facts about planets in our solar system.
You identify the name of the planet.Planet demoted in 2006 to "dwarf" status, its axis of rotation is tilted sideways, one of its moon is named Io. |

Io is one of the moons of Jupiter.

Post by tmann3x on Aug 4, 2018 8:38:52 GMT -5
Jupiter is correct. Its axis of rotation is tilted sideways... the name of the planet is called Uranus.Kevin and Greg each score 100 bucks. [CHEERS, APPLAUSE]
Greg is now in the lead with $350. Next question... I will list three pairs of motion picture titles. Identify which one won the Best Picture Oscar.A Passage to India or Amadeus... Driving Miss Daisy or Dead Poet's Society... Kramer vs. Kramer or Apocalypse Now? |

Kramer vs. Kramer is the correct answer.
And Kevin...?

I think Dead Poets Society won over Driving Miss Daisy.

Post by tmann3x on Aug 5, 2018 20:43:37 GMT -5
Kevin...? ...it was Driving Miss Daisy who had won Best Picture. [BUZZER]Since Greg is the only player who have gotten the answer right, he wins $200 and the Singleton prize! [SIREN][CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
Greg... not only that you've scored an additional 200 bucks, our announcer Brian will tell about the prize you have just won. [THE ALL-NEW LET'S MAKE A DEAL RHYTHM THEME PLAYS]Brian Cummings: Greg... you have just won a Grandfather Clock.[CHEERS, APPLAUSE]From the Howard Miller Clock Company, the Langston grandfather clock is traditionally styled with a windsor cherry finish and polished brass. It's a Singleton prize worth--Congratulations![CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]Tony: What a spectacular Singleton prize. How do you feel after winning that Grandfather Clock, Greg? |

Hey, Brian.... can I trade this grandfather clock in for what's behind Door #2? Brian: Spoiler alert-- Behind door #2 is a Zonk. [LAUGHTER, APPLAUSE]Tony: You had to ask... eh, Greg? Anyways, congrats on winning the clock. Before we get to our next question, here's the multiple choice question that was missed out on-- "A Passage to India or Amadeus"? The correct answer was Amadeus. I'm going to show you three different sequences of numbers, you tell me which number should be next in the sequence…1, 3, 6, 10... 32, 16, 8... 1, 4, 9, 16... |
