  5. And wouldn't you know it? Another one worth 5 points. Nickel and diming it I see. Nels, here's your question. In 1972, just after this person had vowed never to step foot again on U.S. soil, he flew to America to receive a special Academy Award for "the incalculable effect he had on motion pictures". Who was he? |

Charlie Chaplin is correct.
SERGIO: 15
NELS: 10
Hopefully we won’t continue to nickel and dime this game here.
Sergio, your turn.

 A 6. If this reveals to be a 5, I'm goin home. (laughter) Show us.  20!! It's a miracle!! Sergio, this is worth 20 points. Here's your question. Up to 17 feet in length, what venomous snake with a royal name expands the skin of its neck to form a flattened hood? |

Snakes, why it has to be Snakes!? But that venomous grass snake can kill us with just a painful sting. That's the cobra.

Cobra or King Cobra is correct.
SERGIO: 35
NELS: 10
The 25 and the Win cards are still out there. So, there’s still a chance for Nels.
Speaking of Nels, it’s his turn.

A 6. This one is worth 20 points. This will put you behind only by 5, Nels. Here is your question. Possibly the shortest team sport in the summer Olympics; each of the four periods lasts only eight minutes. What challenging sport is this? |

 A 9. Won't be enough to win, but it'll get you very close. Sergio, for 10 points, this is your question.
Kevin Costner played the role of soldier John Dunbar in what film? |

Best Picture and Best Director (I can't remember more) in 1990. Dances With Wolves.

Dances With Wolves is correct.
SERGIO: 45
NELS: 30
Well, Nels, here’s the deal. Find a 20 or 25 and get the question correct, you win. Find the WIN Card and you win.
Simple. Go ahead and roll.

 A 4. Finally, one we haven't seen yet. What's behind #4?  10 points. Nels, it won't be enough for a win, but it will get very close. Here is your question, Nels. Oil painting first appeared in the 15th century, in which European country? |

Post by nelson17 on Apr 17, 2019 11:12:34 GMT -5

The Netherlands is correct!!!
SERGIO: 45
NELS: 40
This is gonna come down to the wire.
Sergio, basically roll anything and get the next question right and you win.
Get it wrong however and Nels gets his question right, he becomes our champion.
Simple as that.
Now as for how many points you will be playing for.
Sergio, go ahead and roll.

a 10. Haven't seen that one yet. Do we see the WIN card behind 10?  15 Points. You get this right. You win. Here's your question. On November 13, 2000, the Michigan State basketball team broke what team's 1,270 game winning streak? |

What a match.
Sergio, I'll take to you in a sec.
Nels, don't feel too bad. You gave it your all. It was an extremely good match.
We multiply your points by 25. That's $1,000.
You leave us with $8,000 and our thanks.
Sergio, you did it. You're the champ.
We multiply your points by $50. That's $3000. Plus the $500 for winning.
You now have a total of $14,375 and you'll play our bonus round right after this.

Ready Sergio?

Cool. For those that don't know how this works, listen up.  9 Numbers up there. He gets 2 insurance markers and 2 insurance markers only. No extra insurance markers for doubles. If Sergio can Knock out all 9 and use both insurance markers, he will win our mini jackpot of $2,500. Use only 1 and it's $5,000. But if he can knock out all 9 numbers without using a single insurance marker, he will win our Super Jackpot which has been reset to $10,000! Good luck, Sergio, let's go! (Number 1-36) |
