That's it -- BEN.
(ding; audience applause)
Some of you at home are wondering about a few links near the midway point and the end of the chain. Let's tell you now how one word leads to another.
As we noted earlier, Mr. Mister was a popular band from the 1980s. Mister Big was a nemesis of Rocky and Bullwinkle. You can find Big Ben in London. Ben Gazzara played Jackie Treehorn in the movie "The Big Lebowski". And the links that gave you two trouble -- Ben Gazzara was married to Janice Rule. Finally, to learn how to play a game, you'll want to consult a rule book.
That's our first chain. Michael swept it for $1500. Clément, plenty of time for a comeback -- as we up the ante for the next chain. And this second round chain starts with...
(ding)
... MR. and it ends with BOOK. (a few laughs from the crowd) I promise you the words in the five links in between have changed.
This time, every link in the chain is worth $500. The player who completes the chain scores an extra $500.
And don't forget about our money link in the center. If you solve that link correctly, you'll pocket a bonus of $250 per letter in that link.
Michael, we left off with you. How do you play it?
