Michael?
Michael: a piano
That's right, man. A piano. Far out. (audience cheers)

All rolls are still good, so you get four more rolls. Here comes your first one. (he rolls the dice)





The Lawrence Welk. A-one and a-two, or a-three.

Pokémon?

[palmer7]

(some in the audience cheer)

Is it Pokémon?

(correct)

Yes it is. Michael, I have a feeling this could be one of those days again. If you solve this puzzle, not only will you be playing for as much as $60,000; but you'll also be one game away from a brand new car. The clue is "Pokémon". Michael, solve the puzzle.

[Deleted]

I don't know a whole lot about Pokémon.  Is it Pikachu?

[palmer7]

For the game, is it Pikachu?




(winning bell sounds, Showcase Showdown cue, cheers and applause)




        [ ]PIKACHU[ ]

Very good, Michael. Let's take a look at the rest of the clues.

He goes with Ash, so far to seven regions. He is yellow, yellow-colored that is. And, he's the most famous Pokémon in the world. Very nicely solved, Michael. Well, Mark, what can I tell you? Our champion is the champion for a reason.

[GameShowNetwork]

And a very good champion at that. But at least I get another chance later in the show

[palmer7]

That's right. But first, Mark, you get a special honor that only contestants on this show get. You actually get to sit in Contestant's Row, where John Cena is going to join you. Maybe you can pick up a few wrestling tips. Mark, we'll see you in the second game. (Nikki escorts him to Contestant's Row, cheers and applause)


Michael, this is a big moment for you. First off, with this win, you are now one game away from winning a brand new automobile. (audience cheers) But now we come to the first bonus game. I'll give you the dice, you roll them, and we'll multiply what you get by $5,000. (I give Michael the dice) Here are the dice, good luck, let's all hope for a high number. (audience cheers as he rolls)







(dings, audience cheers loudly)
A ten! You're playing for $50,000!



$50,000


Having two WWE champions must have brought us a lot of luck, don't you think?

[Deleted]

If you say so, Greg.

[palmer7]

We'll be right back.

Greg: We're back with Michael Clifford, who has just won game #4 in his career on our show. Michael, you know how this works by now. It's just you and the dice. $500 for each number you knock off, and if you get all seven, how much do you win?

[Deleted]

50 grand!

You're right! (audience cheers)

However, there's a little added wrinkle this time. Now, whenever you come down to your last number, Wally's going to activate a 5-roll shutdown timer. That means you'll have only 5 more rolls to make that last number before the game ends. If you get your third strike by then, the game's over. If you roll 5 repeats or wild numbers, which are 3 or 11, then the game is over. If you can roll that last number naturally, then you win. All right. Good luck to you. Here are the dice. You are On a Roll. (Michael rolls the dice)





That's a 7! Good for $500. (audience cheers)

[Deleted]

I agree.  I'm going to keep hugging the Bella Twins during the break. 

(audience laughter)

[palmer7]

And I'm going to find a doctor for when John Cena is finished with you. Then I'm going to Forrester Creations to pick up a girl. We'll be right back.

       [$50,000]                                      [ ]







We're back. Michael's won $50,000 in his first bonus game. Mark, in order to come back tomorrow, not only will you have to win, but you'll have to beat $50,000. No pressure, bro. Anyway, Michael, how did you do with John Cena during the break?

[Deleted]

John was actually very nice to me, so Greg!

(audience laughter & applause)

[palmer7]

(I give the camera and audience a bewildered look) I don't know why he's sticking his tongue out at me. I knew that the whole time. 


Anyway, let's get to game #2. Good luck to you both, here's the first question.



Robert Hays, Adrian Pasdar, and Robert Downey, Jr. have all portrayed what famous Marvel superhero?


(buzzcode and answer, please)

[palmer7]

(buzzcode: 97)
*Mark buzzes in (45)*
Mark?
Mark: G.I. Joe
(wrong)


I had no idea G.I. Joe was a Marvel character. Audience? (I conduct the audience)


Audience: IRON MAN!



Greg: Yes, it was Iron Man. And after marrying Donna Pescow on Angie, Mr. Hayes was glad to take the role. Look it up! Michael, once again you have control of the board. We have Brie at the board this time, and here's the puzzle.

[?][2][3][4][5] [6][7][8][9]

[1][2][3][4][?][6][7] [8][9][10][11]




And as usual, we don't tell you what the category is because we want you to figure it out. Michael, you have four rolls. Here are the dice, and you are On a Roll. (audience cheers as Michael rolls the dice)

And a Y. Do you have a guess?

[Deleted]

It's "May" something.  I need more letters for that row, so I'll roll again.

[palmer7]

(no guess)



(Nikki brings the dice back)


That's OK, that's OK. You have three more rolls. Let's see what this next one is. (he rolls the dice)







Six and one, or a seven.

And an R. Do you have a guess for either row?

[Deleted]

I'll guess the top row.  Mayberry?

[palmer7]

Is it Mayberry?

(Correct)

Very nicely solved, Michael. Now, this is an important puzzle. If you solve this, you will win your fifth game, and a brand new car. The clue is "Mayberry". For a brand new car, solve the puzzle.
