On A Roll (CBS Daytime; Episode 31)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Bump for Evan.)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(time passes)

(buzz buzz)

Time's up. Can't allow a guess -- but, Evan, you may still roll or pass the dice.

[Twentington]

I'll take the roll.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Taking the last roll. Let's see how this turns out...

(Evan rolls)

And it works -- a 2 and a 6 -- or an 8.

Twos are gone -- but you may take the 6 or 8 from the top row.

[Twentington]

The 8, please.

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Violett touches screen)

And there's a U for you, Evan. You may guess the top row's clue if you'd like. A wrong guess or a pass means we play a crucial name game.

[Twentington]

I’ve got nothing...

[dougmorrisontheair]

 

If you've got nothing -- then I've got another name game.

Evan's heading back to his side of the table. Both players' hands are on their buzzers. So here's the next name game.

(FF reveal sfx)

It's a seven-letter answer -- to this crucial question.

What blue-eyed crooner was on a roll -- when he was chairman of the board?

(Evan and James, please PM me your answer, your buzz code from 1-100 and your choice of roll the dice or pass the dice in the event you win this name game.)

(James buzzes in)

James?

James: Sinatra

(dings; audience applause)

Francis Albert Sinatra. That's it.

James, you see numbers continue to get scarce. Roll or pass the dice?

James: Play.

The man's down one game and wants to play. Thanks, Javicia. James, once again, you are on a roll.


(James rolls)

This should work -- yes -- a 3 and a 6 -- or a 9.

Threes are still gone and blocked. James, would you like the 6 or the 9?

[Deleted]

The nine

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Violett touches screen)

And we see a C there. James, you may guess the top row, roll or pass.

[Deleted]

Roy and Buck?

[dougmorrisontheair]

(dings; audience cheers)

That's right, James. With those two clues fully revealed -- and parts of that middle line -- can you solve the puzzle?

---

[James, if you don't want to guess, you may still roll or pass the dice.]

[Deleted]

Is it Smith?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Is it Smith, for the game?

(TPiR Pathfinder wrong move sfx)

Incorrect, James, but you may still roll or pass. And as you can see, you'll need a roll that includes a 5 -- or adds up to a number you see.

How do you play it?

[Deleted]

I will roll

[dougmorrisontheair]

(scattered woahs)

Brave move. Perhaps you've got a feeling.

(James rolls)

Four and one definitely make five. You'll automatically take the 5...

(Violett touches screen)

...and it's an A. James, you may guess the remaining clue, roll the dice or pass the dice.

[Deleted]

Is it Will and Fred?

[dougmorrisontheair]

(dings; audience cheers)

That's it. And now -- with all the clues, James, what is the solution to this puzzle?

[Deleted]

I think I got it now. Is it Rogers?

[dougmorrisontheair]

(audience cheers)

For the game -- is it -- Rogers?

(dings; SCSD win theme plays; audience cheers)

Our match is tied.

Quickly, we'll go back to the board.

A legendary cowboy named Roy, a sci-fi hero named Buck, a humorist and humanitarian Will and the legendary neighbor Fred all have the same last name -- of Rogers.

Evan, I would have Javicia walk you to the comfy seat in the front row -- but I've got a floor director giving me a wrap. So, please stay here for an extra moment. James, please take your money roll.


(James rolls)

One and four times $5000 mean a $25,000 game of Big 6 -- right after this.

(scattered cheers; two seconds of theme plays; quick fade to black)

(theme plays)

[dougmorrisontheair]

We're back -- as are the guest models from "God Friended Me". Frank's back, too.

Wally joins us for the first time today. He's already loaded up your Big 6 word, James. Wally, a hint, please.

(ding)

It's an action.

James, as in the main games, we give you four rolls of the dice here. What's different here is that if you roll two different numbers, you may play just one of the numbers -- and you can never play the sum.

Solve the word after just one roll -- and you win $25,000. If you need a second roll, we drop the value of the word down to $5000. Each additional roll cuts the potential winnings in half.

(Javicia hands James dice)

Steer clear of those doubles. Any double -- or any roll of numbers that you've already played -- is a wasted roll -- and reduces your winnings accordingly.

Good luck, James, because you are on a roll.

(audience cheers as...)
(James rolls)

Good start. Would you like the second or sixth letter, James?

[Deleted]

Sixth

[dougmorrisontheair]

Sixth letter, please, Wally.

(ding)

It's a G. One guess only for $25,000. What is this action?

[Deleted]

Don’t know

[nelson17]

Doug I pm u mine guess

[dougmorrisontheair]

Not going to guess? Okay. Audience, please keep your answers to yourselves. James, please roll again.

(audience cheers as...)
(James rolls)

And would you like the second or third letter?

[Deleted]

Third

[dougmorrisontheair]

Wally unintentionally hid the G -- and now let's see what's behind 3?

(ding)

It's a T. With the T and the G, what is this action for $5000, James?
