Crag: The Numbers Game (Syn., Episode 10)

[jmdarrall]

2.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Jonathan says 2 words are misspelled. If that's right, the 2 misspelled words will be marked as such, we'll hear a bell and go to the dice. Are 2 words misspelled in this sentence?

(ding; audience applause)

Yes. The "i" and "u" in "quick" were in the wrong place -- and you don't need an "e" in "lazy".

(rolling sfx)

Jonathan, now you have a chance to reclaim the lead.

[jmdarrall]

C, D, E, please.

[dougmorrisontheair]

(ding)

Starting with a 6.

(ding)

Got a 5.

(ding)

(scattered cheers)

And a 6 on the end. Jonathan, this is the best combination to make without getting a straight or better. Want to take 17 points -- or reroll?

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Bump for Jonathan.)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(time passes) (buzz buzz)

No decision in time. That means the round's over and...

...Jonathan picks up the 17 points. He now leads 37 to 24. We move on to Round 5 and this.

Ordinal number question: Was Jane Seymour the first, second, third, fourth, fifth or sixth wife of King Henry VIII?

(Marc buzzes in)

Marc?

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Bump for Marc.)

[marc412]

Third

[dougmorrisontheair]

Marc says Jane Seymour was the king's third wife. Does he say right?

(ding; audience applause)

He does. I liked her in "Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman". Oh -- wait.

(scattered laughter from the crowd)


(rolling sfx)

Marc, let's see if you can get your lead back.

[marc412]

Come on, Crag!

(C, A, B)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(ding)

Starting with a 1.

(ding) (scattered whoops and cheers from the crowd)

There's a *6*.

(ding) (audience groans)

And there's a 3. Well, Marc, want 10 points or another try?

[marc412]

I'll try again. Keep the 6 and 3, and hope for a 4.

(A)

[dougmorrisontheair]

OK, going for the non-Crag 13.

(freeze sfx) (rolling sfx)

Stop on a 4 and you'll roughly double your score and take back the lead.

(ding) (audience groans)

Overshot it by one. Got a 5 there.

At the midway point in the game, Marc takes back the lead. Now to Round 6 -- and it's time to try and match it up with -- Fill In The Blank.

(MG '7x stinger) (scattered cheers)

And with it -- a question about TV.

We're going to show you the title of a sitcom that combined comedy with science fiction. When Earl slides the title open, tell me the ordinal number that correctly completes the sitcom title. OK, Earl, slide it.

Marc?

(and please don't forget the stopper letters with your answer)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Bump for Marc.)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(time passes) (buzz buzz)

No answer in time. Jonathan, you get a chance to steal. Normally, the big Crag dice would help you. However, please continue to keep your eyes on the big screen because...

(ding)

...those smaller dice at the top are offering three possible answers -- 1st, 2nd or 3rd. Again, this is the title of a sitcom that combined comedy with science fiction. Is the correct title "1st Rock from the Sun", "2nd Rock from the Sun" or "3rd Rock from the Sun"?

(and please go ahead and give me your stopper letter parenthetically in the event you pick the right answer)

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Bump for Jonathan.)

[jmdarrall]

3rd (B, C, E).

[dougmorrisontheair]

Jonathan says it's "3rd Rock from the Sun". Is that right?

(ding; audience applause)

It is. The show starred John Lithgow, Jane Curtin and Kristen Johnston among many others.

(rolling sfx)

Jonathan, you'll reclaim the lead. By how much? Let's see.

(ding)

Starting with a 1.

(ding)

Well -- there's a 4.

(ding) (scattered groans)

And a 1 on the end. Well, Jonathan, want 6 points or another roll?

[jmdarrall]

Let's freeze the 4 and roll again. D and F, please.

[dougmorrisontheair]

All right, we'll freeze that 4 in the center.

(freeze sfx) (rolling sfx)

Outer dice reroll. Let's see what happens.

(ding)

There's a 6.

(ding)

And a 1 to complete an 11-point round for you, Jonathan.

Seesaw battle in this first game of the match. Jonathan leads by 10. This is Round 7. Remember, the game ends when we complete ten rounds or one of you reaches 100.

Next question deals with music and measurements.

Ever wanted to walk eight miles in Eminem's shoes? For this next missing digit question, we'll show you the number of feet in eight miles on the big screen. Just tell us the missing digit.

Marc?

[dougmorrisontheair]

(Bump for Marc.)

[marc412]

(Does some quick multiplication) 2.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Marc figures eight miles equal 42,240 feet. Is that right?

(ding; audience applause)

Yes. Well done and well calculated.

(rolling sfx)

Marc, let's see if you can get the lead back.

[marc412]

B, F, C

[dougmorrisontheair]

(ding)

There's a 2.

(ding)

There's a 4. Can he get a 6?

(ding) (scattered groans)

Nope -- a 1. Marc, if you stopped here, you'd collect 7 points.

Right now, Jonathan leads 48 to 38 and we have as many as three rounds to go.

[marc412]

Keep the four, toss the others. (B, B)

[dougmorrisontheair]

We're rerolling the outer dice again. Very well.

(freeze sfx) (rolling sfx)

And stop 'em when you're ready.

(ding)

There's a *5*. (scattered cheers)

(ding) (loud groans from the crowd)

And a 1. Get a load of that this does to the score.

We're tied at 48. Three questions are left in this opening game of the match. We're going to get a winner soon.

And it's time we gave the big screen a rest. We're back above the Crag dice for this question about TV.

Single digit question: How many times did Donald Trump fire Omarosa on a business-oriented reality show?

(Marc buzzes in)

Marc?

(and please include stopper letters with your answer)

[marc412]

Three (C, A, A)

[dougmorrisontheair]

Marc says Mr. Trump sent Omarosa packing 3 times. Is that right?

(ding; audience applause)

Yes. The first firing was on the first season of "The Apprentice", the second on the first version of "The Celebrity Apprentice" and the third on an all-star season of "The Celebrity Apprentice".


(rolling sfx)

Marc, you'll take the lead for sure. Question is -- by how much?

(ding)

Stop on a 1.

(ding)

There's a 3.

(ding)

And there's a 1 on the end. Well, 1, 3 and 1 make for a 5-point lead if you stop here.

[marc412]

If this were poker, I wouldn't dream of discarding a pair of aces, but here, I'm gonna do just that and keep the three.

(A, A)
