It's a giraffe. With an incorrect answer, the money for that question goes unclaimed. But never fear...another question's here! This one's worth a grand, and it goes like this: What is the slogan of Apple, Inc.?

I'm drawing a blank, I can't even think of any famous woman from 1903 right now!

Marie Curie is the name. *audience groans* Huh kay. Still no dough given out. Which is fine by me, means my pay's gonna be larger. *laughter* Let's try again with the $2,500 bonus question. $2,500 goes to the person who can tell me... Which country has a unicorn as its national animal?

*buzz, audience groans* It's Scotland that we were looking for. Welp...in times like these, it's good to have backup questions, and thank God we do. We'll keep doing $2,500 bonus questions until we find a winner: What actor played Alex Keaton on the '80s TV show "Family Ties?"

You win! *dings, win cue, cheers*  Bryan, hope you can use $3,500! Because it's yours fair and square! Come over to center stage so I can offer you some more loot. Normally, we have games where either you choose your prize, or you win a bunch of cash. But this one's a bit different. Tell him what he can win, Darrell!Darrell: It's a trip...to Acapulco!*trip cue, cheers* You'll spend 6 nights with a guest in fabulous Acapulco, Mexico! You'll spend your nights in a luxurious vacation home:
Featuring air-conditioned accommodations with a private pool, garden view and a balcony, Villanas - The Best Villa at Las Brisas is located in Acapulco. In Acapulco, ride a horse along stretches of unspoiled beaches outside Acapulco, then help release baby turtles into the ocean on this half-day tour. Get matched up with a rehabilitated rescue horse and follow your guide on a ride to some remote areas, far from Acapulco's more developed areas. Plus, snorkel and swim in the shimmering waters of the Pacific Ocean on a half-day snorkeling tour from Acapulco. And for this lovely trip...we have some spending money for you! You can win up to...
 $10,000 in cash! Good luck!
*cheers*
Yes, and Bryan in this game...the object is to spell the word "Trip". You see:
There are 8 tiles. 4 of them have the letters T, R, I, and P...to spell out "Trip", and 4 of them have L, O, S, and E...to spell out "Lose". You'll choose a tile, and any letter in the word Trip goes in a green space, and a letter in the word Lose goes in the dreaded red space. Whatever word you spell out first is what you win.
Now, you're probably wondering about the cash. We'll start you off with $10,000...and if you pick a Trip letter, your money stays neutral. But if you choose a Lose letter, your money drops by $2,500. So, if you feel you're on the verge of losing...I'll offer you $300 for every tile you select. Without further ado Bryan, good luck, go ahead and choose a tile...should you have no questions! |

The last card. What letter have we?  *buzz, audience groans* O...literally...oh dear. The O goes on the board:  Meaning you can no longer win $10,000....you can now win as much as $7,500 along with that trip. Still a lot of money, and you're not out of it yet. But...now is the time I offer you some incentives. If you feel like you don't think you have a shot at winning that trip...because if you spell out LOSE you get nothin', I'll offer you $300 for every tile you've selected. So, if you wanna forget the trip and $7,500...you can take the $300 and sit down, or try for higher. Do you wanna take the sure thing or keep playing? |

He's gonna keep going! *applause* What's in number 3?  *more applause* An R!  That's more like it, now you have a letter in each word. But if we keep up this pattern, Lose, Trip, Lose, Trip...you'll Lose before you ever get the chance at the trip. But if you fill out the Trip you win $7,500 and you're going to Acapulco. Now I'll offer you another $300...bumping this offer to $600, to quit and walk away...or you can choose another tile. What say you? *audience shouts suggestions* |

Number 6 has...  *buzz, audience groans* An L! No Bryan, that knocks your top cash prize even lower!  Now you're 2 letters away from losing, which we don't want you to do. You can win as much as $5,000 if you play the rest of this game perfectly. But that's an if, and IF you don't think you'll have that luck...I'll increase the offer, and offer you an extra $400 to make it $1,000 to call off the game. That's one thousand smackers, or keep trying to spell TRIP. What say you? *audience shouts suggestions* |

*scattered groans and applause* Well, that makes you one thousand dollars richer! You can take you own trip for heaven's sake! And as an extra incentive...you technically didn't lose. But as I always love to do, let's pretend you went forward...what would've been your next number, Bryan? |

Let's see number 4...  *audience oohs* Ooh...the dreaded E. That would've put you another foot in the hole. Let's see the rest of the board!  The magic letters were in 2, 3, 5, and 7. Nonetheless Mr. Law...you have $1,000...or could you? You can keep that for yourself...or gamble it in our Jackpot...that's looking purty spiffy as of right now...  It has $18,944 which consists of a boat and $4,500 in cash. If we add everything you have at this point Bryan, you have $4,500 all in cash. You can place that up for grabs along with the rest of the loot for the midgames, where you'll be at the halfway point. Do you wanna take that gamble or keep what you have? *audience shouts suggestions* |

Then you keep $4,500 for yourself that's yours to keep no matter what! And maybe you can still win that boat in the midgame, along with $15,000 cash perhaps! We'll see you then, Bryan!
*cheers, theme*
We're 2 for 2 so far technically, and we're going after another win...and hopefully a big win...when Jackpot Trivia returns!

Hi! *scattered laughter* We're down to 2 folks:  Jack and George. One of you will move on to play our final game and will have a chance to win that jackpot of ours. But to first do that, I have a couple of questions for you. Here, have a grand fellas: *ding*  Here we go. Good luck fellas, here's the $500 question: What U.S. fast food chain is credited with introducing the first drive-through window to the masses?

Nope, it's In-N-Out. One of my favorites. No $500 but I have another question: What temperature does water boil in Fahrenheit?

Betty White. *buzz, audience groans* Would've been certain you'd have gotten that, but I digress. This now is the big money bonus question for $2,500. Whoever gets this, or any subsequent question right will win this part of the round, $2,500, and will play our last minigame of the night. Here it is: Who plays the Fairy Godmother in the 1997 version of Cinderella, starring Brandy?
Jack: 29 George: 19 Buzzcode: 89 *Jack buzzes in*  Jack for the win! |
