Okay, then. This game is officially a draw. I must tell you the answer...
IT'S A MOST UNUSUAL DAY
This one was harder than I thought it would be. You had a bunch of sound-alikes representing multiple words. The song itself was sung by Elizabeth Taylor and Andy Williams. Didn't ring a bell with either of you, it seems.
So, here's the procedure. Nels, this game will not count towards your two-strike status. Jake and Nels, you two are going to pick three of the prizes on your board to carry into the next game. Nels, unfortunately, you are not allowed to keep the cash jackpot. It will be placed back on the board and have $500 added to its value. We've opened a new page, so I'll show you your inventories for reference.

All right. You two will be building on the prizes you chose in another game. We'll get to it when we come back!

Welcome back to Concentration. In case you just joined us, you missed a most unusual round. We had our first draw. Neither of our contestants could get that last puzzle after it was broken down entirely. The stakes now are much higher. I'll explain how.
Jake and Nels each claimed three of the prizes they matched in that draw game. They're going to play once more. Hopefully things will go a lot smoother. This time, we're going to play for foreign currency since that last game took so long. Jake, Nels, if you solve the puzzle, any foreign money you earn will be converted to American dollars. Jake, you're still the champ, so you get to decide who picks first.

Four...
30,000 Mexican pesos, or about $1,700. You wanted 14 next...
*dingdingding*
And it's the first Wild Card of the game! First match is yours!
The pesos are on top of the three prizes you carried over. Let's reveal the natural match.
27. Nels, you have first licks at the puzzle.
Solve or pick again?

Wild Card! Gold Take is automatically yours!
Jake hasn't gotten any matches this game yet, but you can leave him shorthanded early. You can steal one of his prizes he carried over.

You're the boss. Where was the other Gold Take hiding?
Behind number three. We turn those squares over again.
Have a guess this time, Nels?

Chance to make it three in a row...
No, that won't help you. Two different currencies, and we must move the board back.
Jake, go ahead.

And there's your first match of this game! We add that to the prizes you took before.
That's about $1,400 you could add to those and all your previous winnings. You just have to solve this puzzle. Take a look...

BTW, interesting choice of prizes. Foreign currency. There's something you don't see every day.

Six...
And of all the monies we have up there, you'll claim the American cash!
It got carried over, so it's worth $2,500 in this game. Where was the other jackpot square?
#24. Three more squares open up.
What say you now, Jake?
