(Bill spins) Here is Bill's first spin of the day, and me thinks that will end up with.........55 cents. Go again. (Bill spins again) 40 cents would tie Kevin and 45 would give him the dollar. (Wheel slows down) And..............30 cents more for 85 and that won't be enough. Bill, enjoy your winnings from Plinko. All right Jack, you're up. (Give me two numbers from 1 to 20 for your spins, Jack)

(Wheel stops on 25) Jack, have fun with that Japan trip. (cue Dig We Must) Kevin, you are the winner of the first showcase showdown! You'll be back a little later, and we'll be back after this.

$3146. (ding; Perfect bid bells) One of you is exactly right! And as per nighttime rules, I have an extra $1000 for the contestant that has bid exactly right. And that contestant is the one who bid $3145. Immanuel, get on up here! (COD cue, Immanuel follows me over to center stage) That was a very good bid down there, and here are your ten $100 bills. (I hand them to Immanuel one at a time) That's yours no matter what happens. But I would love to see you walk away with something else. Something like the prize that George and I have for you behind the doors. Take a look.
(Door number three opens)
George: A new 4K TV! (Consolation Prize cue) Enjoy your favorite shows and movies in stunning 4K high definition on your new Sony 4K 75 inch HD television. Comes with Blu Ray DVD player and a PlayStation 5 game console with five games. This prize package is worth $9,386!
(Consolation Prize cue fades out)
Me: Immanuel, I will give you that television if you are successful in a round of Penny Ante. (I hand Immanuel three pennies) If you can price the two items we're about to show you before using up all three pennies, you win. George, let's find out about those two products please.
George: First, we have an eight pack of Eggo waffles from Kellogg's. And second, a pack of Michelina's macaroni and cheese pasta.
Me: Immanuel, look at these prices for the waffles.

$1.99
$2.42
$3.55
$4.25

Make your first choice out of those four prices, Immanuel

[babytims]

I'll say $2.42

He says $2.42. (I hit the $2.42 button. Flap reveals YES) That's right. Now for the pasta.

$1.99
$2.15
$5.55

You still have all three pennies, so with that in mind, make your first choice for the pasta

[babytims]

[GameShowNetwork]

He says $21.5 (I hit the $2.15 button; flap reveals YES; winning bells) That is your television! (1972 main theme) Congratulations, Immanuel. Enjoy that. Rachel, come on over here if you please. (Rachel comes over to the Penny Ante board) Rachel has been with Price Is Right for the last twenty years, and during the commercial break we had after the first showcase showdown, she said that there was a fond memory she has from her time working with Bob that she would like to share. So we will let her share it.
Rachel: This is something I remember very well. We were about to play Lucky Seven, and I was in charge of driving the car on stage, and I was a little too focused on smiling for the camera and drove the car into one of the doors.
Me: I remember seeing that clip on YouTube somewhere. That took place, I wanna say, in 2003.
Rachel: Close. That happened in 2004, right around the time Rich Fields had become the permanent announcer.
Me: I bet Bob got a good laugh out of that when it happened.
Rachel: Oh he sure did.
Me: Were you embarrassed when that happened?
Rachel: I was a bit embarrassed at first, but looking back on it now, it's one of the funniest things that's ever happened on the show and I'm glad to still be part of this family all these years later.
Me: Well you've been doing a fine job here so keep up the excellent work. There's more Price Is Right coming up!
George: Stay tuned for more pricing games and the fabulous showcases! Which are coming up as our tribute to Bob Barker continues on the second half of The Price Is Right! (Fade to commercial)

All right George, I want to know some very important information. That information is who our next contestant is going to be.
George: I've got your answer right here. Bill Skinner, come on down! (COD cue) You are the next contestant on The Price Is Right!
Me: We had Bill McDee earlier, and now we have the other Bill joining us. Now then, let's see the next item up for bids.
George: It's a lovely photo booth. This 19 inch photo booth includes a ring light, and a 12.9 inch iPad from Apple.
Me: Bill, you get to give me the first bid on that photo booth please.
Bidding order: Bill, Bryan, David, George

(George follows me to center stage) George, we've had two game wins in a row and I would love for you to make it three. If you can do that, then you'll end up with the prize that Rachel's bringing out right now! (camera pans to Rachel driving a new car onto the stage)
George: It's a new car! (cue Passing Lane) It's the 2023 Scarlet Ember Nissan Sentra SR. Comes with 2 liter engine, CVT, four wheel drive, SR premium package and bumper protector. The Nissan Sentra SR. (Passing Lane fades out, I take George to door number three)
Me: George, that car can be yours if you are able to win a game of Lucky Seven. (I hand George seven $1 bills) The way you win is if you have $1 left at the end of the game, and if you do, I will let you have the car for that one dollar. Open the first door please. (Door opens to reveal a 2; ding) There we go. One at a time, I want you to give me the next four numbers in the price, and for every number you're off, you'll have to pay me that amount. What's the second number, George?
