Hello and welcome back to the BIG SHOWDOWN. We're now into the FINAL SHOWDOWN with FRANKIE and JUSTIN.

Before we start, let's do some accounting: FRANKIE gained one payoff point for $100 as well as 16 points, and at $25 per point, that's an extra $400 for a total of $975.

JUSTIN gained also one payoff point for $100, but he gained 33 points and, at $25 per point, that's $825 for a total of $1,400.

(APPLAUSE)





Here's how the FINAL SHOWDOWN works: The Payoff Point is 7 and we play it the way we have been playing it, but this time, every time a question is asked the catergories will change and all twelve categories from all four rounds are to be played. The one who gets seven points wins the game, becomes the champ and will go on to the GOLDEN DICE bonus round for a chance at $25,000 in cash.

(OOHS AND AWWS)

And this is a special time for FRANKIE because if he wins this....he'll be an undefeated five-time champion, he will win a brand new car and he will have five rolls for a possible $50,000.
