Hey folks... I've decided to have another round of the sudden death round called the Shortcut to Victory. The first one was a successful run... therefore I'm so pumped to have an encore. If you want to participate on this test run, please let me know.

OK then... let's open up the computerized board right now. [ Board Opens Up, Initials, Letter, and Category Reveal ]The category for this Shortcut To Victory is GENERAL KNOWLEDGE. There are two initials and one letter. I'll ask a question... you give me the initials or a letter and the answer. If you're right, you'll be one step closer to the win. If you get all three of them correctly, you'll win $5,000. Any further questions? |

[ Buzzer, Losing Horns, Audience Groans ]Sorry, but the correct answer was Nineteen Ninety- THREE. You were off by just one. For getting one answer right, we'll give you $500 just for playing the test run. Any final words before we move on, Bryan?

That's great to hear. Good luck to you, James. During the intermission, one of our art directors Hunter Dillon has created an improved look at the Shortcut to Victory board. Let's take a closer look... [ Board and Initials Reveal ][ Audience Gasps ][ Applause ]Excellent job on the improved design, Hunter. The category, this time, is HISTORY. Each time I ask you a question, you must tell me the initials and the answer. Answer all three questions correctly, and we'll give you $5,000. Any questions...? |
