(LONG SHOT!)(Applause)There you go! It's a good thing that you kept your eye on that clock. You were at Level 4 with only 4 seconds remaining, but now, by calling Long Shot...  ...we're going to jump you up to the 6th level. However, Lenny, you are going to have one last chance to prevent Kevin from winning this round. In front of you are 3 secret buttons. I want you to press one of them right now to place a secret block on that level.

OK. Lenny has just placed a secret block on the 6th level. Now I must warn you: There could be another Block that's been placed on the board. Maybe, maybe not. However, I do know this: There is at least 1 blooper up there. If you find that blooper and correct it, you'll win the round, along with the cash for correcting that blooper, but if you're wrong, or if you find a Block, and Lenny wins the round. So here we go, Kevin. Which amount are you going for? |

I'm going to play it safe. $2,000, please.

Very well, then. For $2,000...  (BLOCKED!)...and you have been BLOCKED!   Which means that Lenny wins the round! (Blocker Win Cue, Cheers and Applause)OK players, join me at center stage. (They do so) Kevin, Lenny got you as that was one of the 6 original blocks that he placed up there. Now we're going to take a look at the ones that were missed. On Level 2, $400... In Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, the vain cock Chauntecleer is tricked by a rabbit.He was actually tricked by a fox. Then on the same level, $200... On April 1, 1698, several people were tricked into going to the Tower of London to “see the Cars washed”.They were tricked to see the Lions washed. And finally, on Level 3, $200... In the Middle Ages, April Fools Day was celebrated on March 25th in most European towns.You were so close, Kevin, but it was actually New Year's Day. In fact, in some areas of France, New Year’s was a week-long holiday ending on April 1. The use of January 1 as New Year’s Day was common in France by the mid-16th century, and this date was adopted officially in 1564 by the Edict of Roussillon. So, at the end of Round 1...  Kevin has $400, and Lenny has $2,300 and 1 round under his belt. However, it takes 2 rounds to win the game, so Kevin, you must win the next round in order to go to a Tiebreaker. But I want you two to take a breather right now, because we're going to take a commercial break, and when we come back, we're going to swap positions for Round 2 as Kevin will be the Blocker, and Lenny will be the Charger. We'll start Round 2 right after this. (Commercial Cue, Audience Applause) |

OK, and Kevin has locked them in. Let's bring Lenny out. (Contestant Intro as Lenny comes back out to the Charger's Podium) OK, Lenny. Now it's your turn to have a go at this board, and remember, we're dealing with Food & Drink. Clear this board, and you'll become our champion and you'll get a shot at $250,000. Otherwise, Kevin will tie up the match and we'll be heading to the Tiebreaker board to determine our champion.  You have 60 seconds, and don't forget about the Long Shot. You know how that works. So now, I want you to give me the level... ...and the money amount... CHARGE! |
