Rerolling the outer dice. Very well. Let's freeze the 4 first. (freeze sfx) (rolling sfx)And the outer screens reroll. Stop 'em when you're ready. (ding)There's a 2 again. (ding)And there's a 5 for 11 points. After Round 2:
  MARC
  JONATHANJonathan leads by 4. We move on to Round 3 of this rubber game of the match with another question. Missing digit question: I'll show you the year "The Star-Spangled Banner" officially became America's national anthem -- and you tell me the missing digit.(ding)72 marc412

(time passes) (buzz buzz) No answer in time. That means Marc gets a chance to steal. (ding)Help comes from the odd straight, oddly enough. Marc, again the question, this is the year "The Star-Spangled Banner" officially became America's national anthem. Is the missing digit in the year 1, 3 or 5? |

OK, Marc says the missing digit in the year is 3. Is he right? (ding; audience applause)Yes. Good job. Marc, we still haven't had a Crag in this match. Put one together in this round and you'll win the match. Let's got those dice screens rolling. (rolling sfx)Stop 'em when you're ready. (ding)Starting with a 1. (ding)There's another 1. (ding)And we've got a 6 on the end. Marc, want 8 points or another try? |

You'll definitely take the lead freezing the 6. Question is will you surpass the goal of 100? Let's answer that right now as we freeze that 6... (freeze sfx) (rolling sfx)...and reroll everything else. Stop 'em with your buzzer when you're ready. (ding)There's a 3. (ding) (scattered groans) And *another* durn close call. The 3, 5 and 6 overshoot the magic 13 by 1. After Round 3:
MARC
JONATHANGot 14 points out of that deal, Marc. Now, unless someone rolls a Crag in this round, this is the next-to-last round of the match. Let's see who gets the crucial control of the dice -- with this. Single digit question: How many stars are in the state flag of Tennessee?

Jonathan says 3 stars in Tennessee's flag -- and I *know* he's right. (ding; audience applause)I used to live in Knoxville -- and can recognize that flag from a mile away. The 3 stars represent what they call "The Grand Divisions" of the state -- East, Middle and West Tennessee. (rolling sfx)Jonathan, chance to take back the lead or even win the match comes here. |

I knew about the three stars, but I did not know the divisions. (A, D, A)
By the way, Knoxville was the city that basically turned my life upside-down...it's where I auditioned successfully for "Wheel."

(ding)There's a 2. (ding)There's a 4. (ding)And there's a 5. Now, Jonathan, you've got something to think about. You may stop here, take 11 points and have a 1-point lead going into the final round of the match. *Or* you may reroll.

(scattered groans) Stopping here with the 11 points. Folks, Jonathan's playing his game his way. And with that... After Round 4:
MARC
 JONATHAN(tones sound)There's the signal confirming we've reached the last round of the match. Jonathan with a one-point lead. Here's the situation. Marc, if you win this question, there's no need to go to the dice. We'll give you 4 points and the match. If you buzz in and miss -- or cannot capitalize on Jonathan's wrong answer -- Jonathan takes the match. Jonathan, all you have to do is chime in and answer correctly to win 4 points and the match. Quiet in the audience, please, because this question is for the match. Missing digit question: I'll show you the number of people who signed America's Declaration of Independence -- and you tell me the missing digit.(ding)97 marc412

(time passes) (buzz buzz) (scattered groans) No answer in time. Marc, you can win it here. (ding)Again, this is the number of people who signed America's Declaration of Independence. Marc, for the match, is the last digit in the actual number 4, 5 or 6? |

Is it 56? (dings; audience cheers)It is and Marc's the winner. Marc, congratulations. Please stand by because we owe you a chance at the winner's board and Super Crag. Jonathan, it's been brought to my attention that an irregularity cropped up in the playing of the game. Would you be available to come back next week and play again? (In layman's terms, the "irregularity" was Jonathan's outage that he spoke of. Jonathan, if you accept, the earliest we could have you back is Episode 12 -- since we owe Matt Johnson a chance to play again.) |

All right, we have rematches next week involving Matt, Jonathan and Marc. Jonathan, we'll see you next week as you try to add to your winnings of $3500. (audience cheers) Marc, as for you, before Super Crag, we've got the winner's board. Please pick a letter in "CRAG" -- and you'll win that much money immediately. We'll also match that for the head start in Super Crag. You could win as much as $5000 right now. Which letter has that five large? |

We're back, Marc's back -- and we're a little short on time. So, Marc, we're going to dive right into this -- if you're up for it. Anna has the dice cup which contains the three Super Crag dice. One of those dice has the gremlin on one of its sides. Anytime your roll includes the gremlin, you lose everything in the pot -- which we are seeding with... (ding)...$5000. But if your roll doesn't have a gremlin, we add the roll's value in hundreds of dollars to the pot. There you see the combinations. Straights are now worth $2000 each, triples $2500, non-Crag 13 $2600 and a Crag pays $5000. If you decide to roll now and get a Crag, that's another $5000 to the pot and you'll have exactly $10,000 plus the mega bonus of $1,000,000. (audience cheers)Come up with any other safe roll and we'll talk about the super bonus at stake should you, eventually, have more than $10,000 in the pot. Right now -- we'll call for your decision. Do you want to stop before we even start and pocket another $5000 -- or risk that money in the pot for a chance at a possible $1,000,000? (audience shouts suggestions) (Marc, if you decide to roll, please respond in the affirmative and then give me a number from 1 to 100. You'll see the result of that roll and the next few rolls "down the list" so long as you don't roll the gremlin and have less than $10,000 in the pot.) |

(audience cheers)Marc, good luck. If you roll a Crag here, you're an instant millionaire. Roll anything else and we'll talk about the super *or* mega bonus that you could win. You just don't want that gremlin. Hey, audience, we haven't had a Crag all show. Start chanting Crag for Marc, Anna, me and everyone else, OK? (more cheers -- then the crowd starts chanting, "Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag!") When you're ready, Marc, do the honors. (crowd continues to chant, "Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag! Crag!") (Marc shakes up bucket; pours dice down ramp) WHAT?!!?! (audience groans; wonk wonk wonk wonk)Marc wins an exciting match and *this* is the thanks he gets? (more groans) (Doug picks up the gremlin cube and drop kicks it off the stage) (audience cheers)Marc, I'm terribly sorry this Super Crag came out the way it did.
