Correct. The other was Zimbabwe. Last question...
This tourist hotspot is smaller than New York’s Central Park. Famous for its Grand Prix and casino, it’s a tax haven and playground for international jet setters. To complete the contract, name this Mediterranean microstate.

ME: Judge?
JUDGE OVER PA: The question said “name the microstate,” which means we needed the name of the country. Since he gave the name of a city, we’ll need to rule that wrong.
ME: Thought so. Sorry, James, but the answer I have is MONACO. There’s $1,200 in the pot, and control goes to JC (BONG!). Let’s activate the windows (shuffle effects). JC, press the button when you’re ready.
(3 numbers, 1-20, inclusive, no repeats, please, JC)

Lower value category. 3 questions, $200 each, for a contract worth $600. First question...
In this 1983 arcade classic, you assume the role of a secret agent who needs to collect documents from a 30-story building. You can kill enemy agents by shooting them, dropping a light fixture on them, or squashing them with the title conveyance, which moves you from floor to floor. For $1,400 in the pot, name this game.

I honestly have no clue, so I’ll take a guess. Secret Agent?

Post by jmdarrall on Jun 8, 2019 16:25:59 GMT -5
No. The clue was “moves you floor to floor,” so what would do that? An elevator. The game was “ELEVATOR ACTION.” Control goes back to James (BONG!). We’ll shuffle the windows (shuffle effects), and James, take it away.

With the Bullseye, you’ll need five correct answers to win. You can stop after any correct answer, though. First question...
With almost 3,000 hours of sunshine annually, it ranks as one of America’s sunniest cities. A large wave of Cuban immigrants helped contribute to its nickname of “The Cigar City.” For $1,500 in the pot, name this Florida city.

That’s right. Last question...
In many cities with well-known theaters, tourists can enjoy a pre-show dinner on a “prix fixe” (Pronounced “pree fix”) menu. To complete the contract, what does the phrase prix fixe mean?

Post by jch20088 on Jun 9, 2019 22:02:09 GMT -5
Oh dear. I was in Chicago visiting my sibling and we had dinner at a place that had this. So I should know this...
I’m gonna take a guess and say, Fixed Price?

Post by jmdarrall on Jun 10, 2019 6:46:12 GMT -5
Exactly right! Nicely done, JC. You have completed the contract, and there is $2,400 in the pot. Do you want to bank it, or spin again and try for the victory?
|
|
|
|
Post by jch20088 on Jun 10, 2019 7:40:37 GMT -5
It’s only $100 away, but I had a few tough questions earlier. I think I better bank it.

Interesting choice (money moves to JC’s board as Audience reacts with surprise). That money is yours, but control goes to James (BONG!). Before we spin, though, we’ll take a short break. Stay with us!

(I am standing with the contestants at their podium)
Gentlemen, we don’t have enough time to finish this game on this episode, but we’ll pick it up on our next episode with James taking his turn and building a new pot.
We hope to see you on our next episode, and until then, this is Jon Darrall, hoping everything you do hits the Bullseye!
