(razzle)  (Bonus Bells) $500 if you can tell me the word right now Nels. The clue is - It's where some people are told to just butt out. Do you want to try to solve it, or do you want to try that Y? |

That's too bad. But the pink square for $1,000 is still up for grabs! Let's see if that Y works. (razzle)  It does. You have the first and last letters now plus the H. Can you solve it or do you need two more tiles Nels? |

If Nels does not select a letter by 12:05pm eastern time today (Tuesday, August 29th), he will lose his turn and Matt will take over.

And that's time up.
Matt, you're now in control of this word.
Do you want to place one of those letters or do you wish to solve it?

(Game win cue)
That's it!

Also $1,000 bonus for you Matt for solving it with the letter on the pink square. $1,750 total for you so far and the lead in the match one game to none.
We'll be back to play game #2 right after these words of interest!

(intro from commercial music) Welcome back to Scrabble. Matt Ringgenberg won game 1 of the crossword match. He has $1,750 and that's his to keep no matter what. Nels Snesrud, no money yet but a chance right now to even up this match at one game apiece. Nels we'll go to the board with you first. We are building off of the letter "E", there are 9 letters in this word and the clue is... English teachers and criminals both hate long ones.  This first word is worth $225 to whoever solves it first, two chances at a $500 bonus with the blue squares. Nels you can either solve the word right now if you think you know it, or you can select a couple of tiles. |

(word win cue) Very well done Nels! You knew that R was a stopper. $225 for you and you lead 1 word to 0. Matt we'll go to the board with you to start out this time. And this next word is worth $250. Building off of the letter T in SENTENCES, this is an 8 letter word and the clue is... Having one is usually a taxing situation.  Matt, you can either solve it or select 2 tiles if you're not yet sure. |

(razzle)  (Bonus bells) That R landed on a blue square. To tie up the game and to pick up another $750 Matt, can you solve it? If not, you'll need to select 2 more tiles. |
