In our last episode, we had a game in progress between the challenger Kourtney Wilson and our returning champion Matt Ringgenberg. BTW, Matt had won 2 straight games with a grand total of $62,709 in cash and prizes.
And while we're waiting on Kourtney and Matt to be ready, I'm looking for a standby participant to play against the winner of this match. If you want to join us, please let me know.

Well, I am a shift leader at a national sub sandwich chain. I love listening to different types of music, collecting stationary products, cigar boxes. Learning about different cultures and languages. The normal things.

Good luck to you, Kourtney. We had a game in progress as our players tackle on the five categories. [CATEGORIES CUE]We have MUSIC, IN THE NEWS, HUMAN BODY, FIRST LINES, and finally... WHO WHAT WHERE. Remember... whoever reaches $1,000 will be playing Face The Devil for thousands more in cash and prizes. Now here's how the score looks like. [DING]Our challenger Kourtney has $500 and our champ Matt has $400. Let's resume the match. Kourtney, give it a spin.

Answer it correctly and you'll be a hundred bucks short of claiming victory. Here is your clue. FIRST LINES - $400
"When Mr. Bilbo Baggins of Bag End announced that he would shortly be celebrating his eleventy-first birthday with a party of special magnificence, there was much talk and excitement in Hobbiton".For $400, name the book and author.
