Uno: The Game Show - Episode 3 FINISHED!

[dad90]

#2 it is. OK Matt, you have 2 cards from the board, as you have 1 card for winning 1 round from our Main Game, and 1 more for winning the game. We won't reveal these cards yet, because we want you to increase your chances of cracking the Mastercode, and here's how...

[1] [2] [3] [4]
[5] [6] [7] [8]

?-?-?-?-?

Our board is now showing 8 numbers, and behind each number is a clue that will lead you to a person, place, or thing. Now the key here is that the less clues are revealed, the more guesses you win. We're going to allow you to pick up to 4 clues. If you are able to identify the subject with all 4 clues, you'll earn 1 additional guess. 3 clues, 2 additional guesses. 2 clues, 3 additional guesses. And if you are able to get it right with the first clue that you picked, you'll an additional 5 guesses, and that will take you one step closer to winning $100,000.

(Audience Cheers and Applause)

So Matt, in this first-ever playing of the Champion's Mastercode, I can tell you that we're looking for a Person.

Pick a clue to get started.

[mringgenberg]

7

[dad90]

#7 is your first choice, and here is your first clue.

[1] [2] [3] [4]
[5] [6] [--] [8]

?-?-?-?-?

The town he wrote about in "My Little Town" is probably Forest Hills, New York.

That is your clue, and now, for 5 additional guesses, and to keep the $100,000 dream alive, who is this person?

You have 24 hours to give me your answer.

[mringgenberg]

Pass

[dad90]

OK, so now the $100,000 is out of play, but you have 3 clues left. Choose another number.

[mringgenberg]

5

[dad90]

Going to #5, and here's your second clue.

[1] [2] [3] [4]
[--] [6] [--] [8]

?-?-?-?-?

In the mid 1970s, he got high ratings as a host of NBC's "Saturday Night" show.

For 3 additional guesses, can you tell me who this person is?

You have 24 hours to give me your answer.

[mringgenberg]

George Carlin?

[dad90]

Is it George Carlin?



(No!)

No, it is not.

2 clues left, Matt. Choose one.

[mringgenberg]

2

[dad90]

Here's your third clue behind #2.

[1] [--] [3] [4]
[--] [6] [--] [8]

?-?-?-?-?

His album "Bridge Over Troubled Water" was certified a gold record on the day it was released.

For 2 additional guesses, who is this person?

You have 24 hours to give me your answer.

[mringgenberg]

Paul Simon

[dad90]

Is it Paul Simon?

[1] [--] [3] [4]
[--] [6] [--] [8]

PAUL SIMON

(Ding x 3; Audience Cheers)

Yes, it is Paul Simon. You got it right for 2 additional guesses, making it a total of 7.

Those guesses are going to be useful as you try to crack tonight's Champion's Mastercode, and this is how you do it...

[?] [?] [?] [?]

Here is Mari with a board of 4 question marks here. Your job is to figure out what the Mastercode is. Now, I can tell you that there are no 0's in the Mastercode, and the numbers are between 1 through 9, and they are only used once.

Also, the colors of Red, Yellow, Green and Blue are also used once. So you have to figure out the number and the color of the code, and where they are located. Of course, the less guesses you attempt, the more money you'll make.

Since you have a total of 7 guesses, you have a potential of winning $40,000!

(Audience Cheers)

1st guess: $40,000
2nd guess: $30,000
3rd guess: $20,000
4th guess: $10,000
5th guess: $2,500
6th guess: $1,000
7th guess: $100

This is the Money Chart based on how many guesses you have, but before we ask for your 1st guess, we have the two cards that you have picked earlier to give you some helpful hints, so listen up.

The card you got from the Main Game, #4, reads as follows:

The first digit's color is NOT Yellow.

And the card that you got for winning the game goes as follows:

The last digit is an even number.

Those are the hints from the cards you've accumulated. Use that information wisely.

Now...



This indicates that both the color and the digit are wrong.



This indicates that either the color OR the digit are in the right place.



This indicates that the both the digit AND the color are in the correct place.

[?] [?] [?] [?]

Now, to make an attempt, you must say the color and then the digit.

For example:

Green 9
Yellow 2
Red 8
Blue 1

Then, we'll put it in, and we'll find out how many you have right.

With all that said Matt, good luck, and give me your first attempt for $40,000.

[mringgenberg]

Red 6
Green 1
Blue 7
Yellow 4

[dad90]

Let's lock that in.

[6] [1] [7] [4]

For $40,000, is Matt right?

(Trivia Trap Wrong SFX)

No, it is not. Now, we'll look at the digits, and see how well you did.

OK, so you know that for the first and last digit, either the digit itself OR the color are in the place, but the middle two digits are completely wrong.

Now, take your second guess. This is for $30,000.

[mringgenberg]

Yellow 6
Blue 9
Green 7
Red 1

[dad90]

Let's lock that in.

[6] [9] [7] [1]

For $30,000, is Matt right?

(Trivia Trap Wrong SFX)

No, it is not. Now, we'll look at the digits, and see how well you did.

Now it's the opposite as the first and last digits are completely wrong while the middle two may have the correct color OR the correct digit.

Here's your third guess for $20,000.

[mringgenberg]

Red 2
Green 5
Blue 6
Yellow 8

[dad90]

Let's lock that in.

[2] [5] [6] [8]

For $20,000, is Matt right?

(Trivia Trap Wrong SFX)

No, it is not. What do we have here?

Once again, the first and last digit may have the correct color or digit, but the middle two are entirely wrong.

This is now your fourth guess for $10,000.

[mringgenberg]

Red 4
Blue 2
Green 8
Yellow 9

[dad90]

Let's lock that in.

[4] [2] [8] [9]

For $10,000, is Matt right?

(Trivia Trap Wrong SFX)

No, it is not. Let's see how well you did now...

Well, look at this. You have made progress on this one. In fact, I can now tell you that you have placed all the colors in the correct position. Now, you need to take care of the digits.

You do have to hurry, though. You have 3 guesses left. This is for $2,500.

[mringgenberg]

Red 9
Blue 8
Green 2
Yellow 4

[dad90]

Let's lock that in.

[9] [8] [2] [4]

For $2,500, is Matt right?

(Trivia Trap Wrong SFX)

No, it is not. We're now going to see if you have any digit in the right position.

Not yet. That means that you have to try again.

2 guesses left. This is now for $1,000.

[mringgenberg]

Red 2
Blue 4
Green 8
Yellow 9

[dad90]

Let's lock that in.

[2] [4] [8] [9]

For $1,000, is Matt right?

(Trivia Trap Wrong SFX)

No, it is not. We're now going to see if you have any digit in the right position.

There are still not in the right position.

OK, you have 1 guess left. I can now tell you this:

12358

4 out of these 5 digits are in the Mastercode, and they are NOT in order.

This is your last chance for $100.

[mringgenberg]

Red 3
Blue 5
Green 1
Yellow 8

[dad90]

Let's lock that in.

[3] [5] [1] [8]

This is your last chance.

Is Red 3, Blue 5, Green 1, and Yellow 8 right for $100?

(Trivia Trap Wrong SFX)

(TPIR Losing Horns)

(Audience Groans)

I'm sorry, Matt. That is incorrect. In fact, you even chose the digit that didn't belong there as well. Mari is now coming over and is showing what the combination of tonight's Mastercode is...

(Mari takes out the 4 cards for the right combination)

[5] [3] [8] [2]

It was Red 5, Blue 3, Green 8, and Yellow 2. That was tonight's Champion's Mastercode.

Well Matt, you didn't pick up any extra cash, but not to worry. We still got the Bonus Bonanza coming up, and that's where the real BIG money is waiting for you, and that's coming up right after this, so don't go away!

(Cheers and Applause)

DK: And welcome back to Uno: The Game Show, and as you know, Matt Ringgenberg has won the game, and now, it's time for the moment that we've all been waiting for, and especially for our champion. It's now finally time to play...

Audience: BONUS BONANZA!

(The Screen rises up and the curtain opens up to reveal the Bonus Bonanza logo)



(Audience Cheers and Applause)

MATT

BANK: $0

STRIKES: 0

TOTAL: $14,087

Matt, welcome to the Bonus Round of Bonus Bonanza. Despite winning only 1 round of the game, you have managed to answer enough questions correctly and held up a strong hand to prevent Danny from winning the game. And because of that, you have proven yourself worthy, and by becoming our new champion, you have earned the right to play Bonus Bonanza.

Now, up until this point, we've tested your knowledge, strategy, skill, and even a little bit of luck. Now, we're really going to test your luck. Here in the Bonus Bonanza, you can play up to 3 Bonus Games, and hopefully, you'll do well enough to make it to the Power Pyramid.

However, you have to earn your way to the Power Pyramid for a chance to win the Grand Progressive Jackpot of $1,400,000. And the way we do that is you have to FULLY win AT LEAST one of the two bonus games that you're allowed to play for free.

Now, if we're ready, let's proceed to Bonus Game #1, which involves our Question Card Board. We call this the $10,000 Race.

[0I] [II] [III] [IV] [V] [VI]
[VII] [VIII] [IX] [X] [XI] [XII]

Now instead of regular numbers, we have Roman numerals, and this time, behind 10 of those cards are cash amounts ranging from $500 to $5,000 in $500 increments. Your job is to accumulate $10,000 or more without finding the '0' card. That's right. There's a '0' card on the board, and you want to avoid that, because if you pick it, your final total will be $0, and the game will be over. However, after a cash award has been picked, you'll have the option of stopping and taking the money or continue on. Now, if you accumulate $10,000 or more without finding the '0' card, and your total will be augmented to $25,000 in cash!

(Audience Cheers and Applause)

But wait! There's more! Hidden somewhere on this board is a WILD card. If you find that card at any time, not only you'll automatically win the game, thus earning your ticket to the Power Pyramid, but you'll also receive these great prizes that Shadoe Stevens is going to tell you about right now!



Shadoe: Dayo, tonight's Wild Card Grand Prize Package starts with...



a kitchen island.

(Applause)

From the Home Depot comes this Hodedah kitchen island that's finished in fine polished oak, and includes a spice rack and towel holder.

Next, prepare some meals in your kitchen with these new appliances!



(Applause)

From the Home Depot, this GE stainless steel appliance package includes a four-burner electric range, microwave oven, dishwasher and side-by-side refrigerator/freezer with ice dispenser.

And you might want to serve your culinary creations in this dining room set!

And when the meal is over, gather the whole family around and play some beautiful music on this baby grand piano!



(Applause)

This Yamaha GB1K baby grand piano is a perfect addition to your home, with a bright ebony finish, gold accents and matching bench.

And Matt, this makes this Wild Card Prize Package worth...

$27,670

$27,670!

(Audience Cheers and Applause)

DK: And thank you, Shadoe. Matt, there are a couple of things I need to tell you. If you find that Wild Card, your cash winnings for this bonus game will be augmented to $10,000 and you'll win all those prizes that Shadoe has just described, but if you find the Wild Card on your very first pick, and your cash winnings will be augmented to $50,000 in cash!

(More Cheers and Applause)

[0I] [II] [III] [IV] [V] [VI]
