(The intro this season looks very similar to the intro of the network version)
(fade in, cheers and applause as we get a wide shot of the crowd)
[OPENING "COME ON DOWN!" CUE]

[MAIN THEME]

And now, here's your host....... GREG PALMER!



(I walk out from the audience to cheers and applause, I approach Contestants' Row, and Amber hands me my mic; I then bow to the audience)

Greg: Thank you very much, George. I welcome you to The Price is Right! (audience cheers) What a wonderful welcome. And joining me over there at his booth is George Gray!

George: Hey, Greg! Hey, everybody, welcome to the show! Hi, Mama Mai!

(cheers and applause)

Greg: And hi, Mom. Seriously, George, do you do that every episode?

George: Yes, do you have a problem with it?

Greg: No, I just have a problem introducing you every episode.

George: And you're no picnic, either.

(audience ooohs) Greg: Now now now, the audience didn't come to watch us fight. They came to win something. Am I right? (audience cheers) Like these four contestants down here. How are you guys doing?

[mringgenberg]

Great

[romnserg]

Fine!

[grapebuy789]

Woo hoo! This is going to be fun!

[palmer7]

And George and I are going to have even more fun when we take this outside during a break. (audience... reacts) Ha ha ha. Anyway, let's begin as Rachel comes down with the first item going up for bids on The Price is Right!

(the lights dim as a spotlighted Rachel enters Contestants' Row wearing....)

George: And Rachel is wearing this lovely necklace.

This Amulette de Cartier necklace is made of 18K yellow gold, set with a brilliant-cut diamond of 0.02 carats with white mother-of-pearl.

(audience cheers, Frank looks rather pleased with himself) How are you liking the show so far, Frank? America's newest thousandaire?

[grapebuy789]

I haven't even played a pricing game yet and I've won money already. So far, I am liking this!

[palmer7]

And guess what? You're going to be going down the Golden Road, and for doing absolutely nothing, I'll give you this video game. George, tell us about Detective Pikachu.

(We go to the end of the Golden Road, and Door #2 opens up to reveal a special guest with....)


A NEW ALFA ROMEO!

(the fireworks go off inside the pots of gold, shot of Frank, shot of audience losing their minds)

Awaken your senses every time you drop the top in this 2018 Alfa Romeo 4C Spider. It comes equipped with a 1750 four-cylinder engine, automatic 6 speed transmission, plus the following options: Dark 5-Hole Wheels, 3-Season Tires, Carbon Fiber Halo, Bi-Xenon Headlamps, Front Fascia with Carbon Fiber Vents, Anti-Stone Protective Film, Alpine Premium Audio System with Subwoofer, Spider Track Package 4, Spider Convenience Group, Carbon Fiber Interior Trim Group, Black Brembo Brake Calipers, and Akrapovic Dual Mode Center Mounted Exhaust. It's an Alfa Romeo 4C Spider!


Greg: Now, we can't get to that Alfa Romeo until we get to the other two prizes. We start with the video game, that is worth...

[4 0]

$40. Right this way to the action camera and accessory kit. (we walk over there, I lower the lid on the price)




[4 0]
$[?][6][0]



Now, the price is blank-60 dollars. Is that missing digit a four or a zero? (audience shouts suggestions)

[pathfinder20]

From the audience: 4!

[grapebuy789]

It's gotta be 4. I'll go with 4 Greg.

[palmer7]

He wants a four.... (I pull out the tab)



$[4][6][0]



(ding)
(audience cheers) He's right!


(I pull the "460" out) That is your action camera and accessory kit, and on we go down to the trip to New Zealand. (we walk past the Alfa Romeo, Frank pauses) Keep walking! Wait a minute! I've been trying to figure out who the ridiculously short person sitting in the driver's seat is. It's not James, it's..... CONNOR! (audience cheers) CONNOR CAREY! Oh no..... (audience reacts) This is Connor Carey, the adopted spawn of... well, the other guy that hosts this show. What are you doing here behind the wheel of that Alfa Romeo, kid?

(Connor gets out and approaches us) Connor: My dad left a note for you. (he gives it to me, I unfold it and read it)

Greg: Let's see what it says. "Dear Greg, I am busy making a pilgrimage to Lumbini. I had to drop Connor off here so I could make my flight. Would you please watch him while I am gone? Thanks. Drew." OK, we'll watch your kid. Now, Connor... why don't you go over off-stage for a bit, and Uncle Roger will try to indoctrinate-- er, teach you a bit more about how things work. Won't you, Uncle Roger? Yessss, he will. (Connor exits, we move to the trip)

Now that we have that out of the way, we're up to the trip to New Zealand. (I lower the cover)



[4 6 0]
$[7][8][1][?]


Now, this trip is worth almost $8,000. It's seven thousand, eight hundred, worth at least that. However, we want to know what the last digit is. Is it 4, 6, or 0? (audience shouts suggestions)

[pathfinder20]

I would say 0 but it’s up to you. Any of those numbers are plausible.

[romnserg]

If I was there, I would had said 9.

[palmer7]

Hold on, wait just a second. Sergio, there's no 9 in the three options presented. It's 4, 6, or 0.

[romnserg]

(Embarrassed) Oops, I would had said 6. But as Kourtney said It's up to Frank
