Sergio is our returning champion, with 2 games and $21,850. Please check in, Sergio.
James lost the last game without getting a turn, so he’ll play and start this game. Please check in, James.
Also, I need at least one more person to serve as a challenger. Priority will be given to those who sign up first. David is ineligible for this episode, but anyone else can sign up. So, who is in?

That’s right! It’s a mask that covers the entire head, except for the eyes and mouth. There’s $1,050 in the pot. You can claim it, yours to keep win or lose, or you can risk it and take another spin. What do you want to do?
(James, if you want to go on, give me three numbers)

OK. 2 questions, $200 each, $400 contract and a pot worth $1,450. First question...
The final line of this Rudyard Kipling poem about a young Indian water carrier states “you’re a better man than I am.” For $200 in the pot, James, name this poem.

Correct! Last question...
This film classic features Dustin Hoffman asking Anne Bancroft the following question: “Mrs. Robinson, you’re trying to seduce me. Aren’t you?” To complete the contract, name the film.

OK. It will take 5 correct answers to win the game, but you will have the option to stop after a correct answer. Question 1...
Contrary to popular belief, this quote associated with Sherlock Holmes was never said in any of the original Conan Doyle works. Indeed, it was first used in the movies. Nonetheless, this four word quote explains Holmes’s confusing conclusions. For $1,700 in the pot, give the exact quote.
