Ok. You must answer all 4 questions to win. Miss one, and Mark will get a spin and a chance to win. First question...
This phrase originated in colonial periods, when the well-off didn’t have to work outside, leaving them with paler skin and more visible veins. It’s also the title of a crime drama starring Tom Selleck. For $2,450 in the pot, tell me the phrase.

Right. Third question...
Invented in Victorian Times, it became popular in the U.S. after an armadillo-shaped one was featured in the film “Steel Magnolias.” Its color comes from a certain blend of cocoa, although many recipes use beet juice for it. For $2,850 in the pot, name this dessert often covered with a cream cheese frosting.

You’ve won!
(Victory cue plays as the money goes to James’s board)
Congratulations, James! Third victory, another $3,050 in your pocket. Mark, you played a great game, but once James got back control, he wouldn’t give up. However, you do have $1,000 to show for your efforts. Mark Liotta, everyone!
(Applause as Mark leaves the podium)
James, when we come back, we’ll go to Bonus Island. Stay with us!
(Outro cue plays)

ME: We are back! James, are you ready to take on Bonus Island?
JAMES: Yeah!
ME: Come join me! (Bonus Island cue plays as the podium slides into place, and James and I step on it when it stops moving). Ok, James, you know that if everything goes your way, you could win over $35,000 cash and prizes. First, here’s Jim Thornton to tell you about the trip.
JIM: James, rack up at least $5,000 or get three Bullseyes, and you’ll be off to DUBAI! We’ll fly you and a guest round trip coach from L.A. to Dubai on Emirates Air. You will stay in a Club Suite with all meals at Sofitel The Palm Dubai, a resort and spa on the Persian Gulf’s playground for the rich and famous. We’ll also include ground transportation, a dune buggy ride through the desert, and tickets to the top of the Burj Khalifa. This prize is worth $6,300!
ME: We want you to win that, and you know how to do it. Couple of reminders: you can stop after any successful spin, and getting three Bullseyes in one spin will get you the trip and $29,000 in cash! Let’s get to work, James (Shuffle effects). Press that button and let’s see what you get.
(James, 3 numbers 1-20, inclusive, NO REPEATS, please)

You got it! Now, we would double your money, but we have a house minimum rule, so we’ll bump your cash for this round to $5,000! That, along with the trip, gives you a three-game total of $37,950 (Applause)!
By the way, let’s see where the Lightning was (I press the button and the Lightning crashes on the second window). You froze the right window. We’ll take a short break, and then you’ll face a new challenger. Stay with us! (Outro cue plays)
