Sale of the Century - Season 2 Episode 1

[Shieldsy100]

(fade in on me at my podium)

And welcome back to Sale. It's Round 3, and after a handy pick-up off the Fame Game board. Sam is now in the lead on $60, but we still have a long way to go, so here we go with Round 3 questions.

1. Rhyming with action, is which small dissenting group, within a larger group?
2. In the Harry Potter universe, what is the incantation for casting a disarming spell?
3. What is both another name for a hairdresser, and the last name of the first host of this show?
4. Add a letter to luck, to get which word meaning to take hold of something and aggresively remove it from its place?

[Shieldsy100]

(If there is a tie for buzzcodes, the person who posted earlier gets the question)

Rhyming with action, is which small dissenting group, within a larger group?
(buzzcode: 53)
*Sam buzzes in (50)*
Sam: Faction?
CORRECT

Sam: $65
Matt: $35
John: $50

In the Harry Potter universe, what is the incantation for casting a disarming spell?
(buzzcode: 10)
*Sam buzzes in (21)*
Sam: Expelliarmus?
CORRECT

Sam: $70
Matt: $35
John: $50

What is both another name for a hairdresser, and the last name of the first host of this show?
(buzzcode: 3)
*John's podium lights up (3)*
Ah, now John, if you get this question right, we will give you the Sale Chip. It's very simple. If you have the Sale Chip, you can buy whatever is in the Gift Shop, you can play the Cashcards for absolutely nothing, disregarding the Sale Price entirely. And, not only that, if you win the game, and take the Sale Chip with you to the End Game, regardless of whether you scored over $100 or not, we will automatically flip over the WIN card on the board for you, and you will then solely have to guess where the Lexus Symbol is. So John, with all that in hindsight, what is your answer?

John: Barber?
CORRECT

Sam: $70
Matt: $35
John: $55 (SALE CHIP)

Add a letter to luck, to get which word meaning to take hold of something and aggresively remove it from its place?
(buzzcode: 10)
*Sam buzzes in (2)*
Sam: Pluck?
CORRECT

Sam: $75
Matt: $35
John: $55 (SALE CHIP)

GIFT SHOP TIME

Alright, it's time for the second gift shop, and I turn to Sam first. Sam, you're in the box seat. You're $20 ahead of John, and $40 ahead of Matt, so you have plenty of money to spend, and here's Karina to try and tempt you to part with your money.

(Karina is sitting in a chair facing a big screen TV, her face appears on the screen)

Karina: Sam, how would this complete home theatre package sound to you. I hope it sounds good, because it sounds great to me! This package comes with a trio of home theatre seats, which will make you feel like you're at the movies, a 55inch LED 3D HDTV with 1080p resolution, 3 pairs of 3D Glasses and a Nintendo WiiU, so you can watch movies and play games in the utmost quality. Normally priced at

$5,615

but tonight it's a fantastic

$12

From carolinachair.com, Samsung and Sale of the Century.

Alright Sam, you heard Karina, all we're asking for is $12. You'll still be in the lead, and it's a very nice prize. This is my one and only offer, so what do you say?

[hodders]

It sounds good, but I need to keep the lead, no sale.

[Shieldsy100]

Alright then, Sam's not interested, so I turn to you John. You have the Sale Chip, so if you want that prize, it will mean we take absolutely nothing off your score. So, do you want this prize or not?

[johnnyb]

Sorry, won't do it.

[Shieldsy100]

Alright, not even John's taking the prize. I hope you don't regret that in the long term John. Back to the questions.

1. The Australian Liberal Party leader between 1983-85 and 1989-90 was Andrew WHO?
2. According to the closing theme of a classic British TV show, which hero was, “feared by the bad, loved by the good?
3. What do we call a novel or movie that continues the story or develops the theme of an earlier one?
4. Which former member of the Beatles went on to narrate the British version of the children's show, “Thomas the Tank Engine?”

(PM me your answers and buzzcodes)

[Shieldsy100]

The Australian Liberal Party leader between 1983-85 and 1989-90 was Andrew WHO?
(buzzcode: 60)
*Sam buzzes in (81)*
Sam: Peacock?
CORRECT

Sam: $80
Matt: $35
John: $55 (SALE CHIP)

According to the closing theme of a classic British TV show, which hero was, “feared by the bad, loved by the good?
(buzzcode: 40)
*John buzzes in (40)*
John: Robin Hood?
CORRECT

Sam: $80
Matt: $35
John: $60 (SALE CHIP)

What do we call a novel or movie that continues the story or develops the theme of an earlier one?
(buzzcode: 34)
*Sam buzzes in (45)*
Sam: A sequel?
CORRECT

Sam: $85
Matt: $35
John: $60 (SALE CHIP)

(buzzcode: 27)
*Matt buzzes in (5)*
Matt: Ringo Starr?
CORRECT

Sam: $85
Matt: $40
John: $60 (SALE CHIP)

CASHCARD TIME

Alright, now we have an interesting situation. John still has the Sale Chip in his possession, so now could be the opportune moment to strike. Sam, you have a $25 lead over John though. If you play Cashcard and pick a suit, it could be $10,000, or it could be a random amount of cash on your score, anywhere from $1 to $50, it could mean that you play for the Lexus GS350 in the final round, or it means you could get your $15 that you paid to play the Cashcards returned to you. Are you game enough to risk that money Sam?

[hodders]

I scored big the last time I went for the Cashcard, let's give it a shot.

*Buzzer*

[Shieldsy100]

Alright then Sam, what suit would you like?

[hodders]

Let's chance it with Diamonds.

[Shieldsy100]

Alright, and behind the Diamonds we have.....

RETURN $15

All right, so the money goes back onto Sam's score, and you stay at $85. Now, John, you have an interesting situation here. If you decide to use the Sale Chip on Cashcards now, you have a 1 in 3 of picking up $10,000 cash, getting a chance to play for the Lexus in the final round, or getting a random amount of cash between $1 and $50 onto your score. Would you care to hand over your Sale Chip for a go at the remaining Cashcards, and if so, what suit would you like?

[johnnyb]

I'm going for it..........Let's do clubs.

[Shieldsy100]

Alright, and behind the Clubs we have.....

RANDOM CASH

Alright, now this is interesting. The Random Cash adds a random amount of cash between $1 and $50 onto your score. At the moment, you are trailing Sam by $25. Any amount higher than that will put you in front. What is the Random Cash amount for tonight?

$36

Alright John, you are now in front by $11. You are now on $96, Sam is trailing on $85, and Matt is on $40.

FAME GAME TIME

Alright, and it's time for the Final Fame Game. $25 and the Wildcard are now on the board. Matt, even though the $25 can't really help you now, you can still get a nice prize if you get the correct answer to this Fame Game.

WHO AM I
I WAS BORN IN PORTLAND, OREGON IN 1954, THE MIDDLE CHILD OF 5 CHILDREN. MY MOTHER, A FORMER TEACHER AND MY FATHER A FILM-MAKER, BOTH ENCOURAGED ME TO BE CREATIVE FROM AN EARLY AGE. THE NAMES OF BOTH MY PARENTS AND SOME OF MY SIBLINGS INFLUENCED SOME OF MY CREATIVE WORKS IN THE FUTURE.

(If you know the answer, PM me the answer and a buzzcode between 1-100. If you don't know the answer, PM the word PASS to me)

[Shieldsy100]

(buzzcode: 80)
*Sam buzzes in (61)*
Sam: Matt Groening?
CORRECT

(Matt looks disappointed)

Alright Sam, you are trailing John by $11. We have the Wildcard, the $15 and the $25 on the board. Who would you like off the board?

[RAY WARREN][ANGELINA JOLIE][HAMMOCK ($800)]
[JIM PARSONS][MARCIA HINES][$10]
[SHELLEY CRAFT][JENNIFER LAWRENCE][BEN FORDHAM]

[hodders]

Let's go with Jim Parsons please Cameron.

[Shieldsy100]

Alright, he plays Sheldon on "The Big Bang Theory", does he have money for you?

[RAY WARREN][ANGELINA JOLIE][HAMMOCK ($800)]
[$25][MARCIA HINES][$10]
[SHELLEY CRAFT][JENNIFER LAWRENCE][BEN FORDHAM]

*camera flashes between Sam's podium and the $25*

Yes he does! Currently, you are now on $110, and John is on $96. Where was the rest of the money Karina?

Karina: The Wildcard was with Marcia Hines

[RAY WARREN][ANGELINA JOLIE][HAMMOCK ($800)]
[$25][WILDCARD][$10]
[SHELLEY CRAFT][JENNIFER LAWRENCE][BEN FORDHAM]

Angelina Jolie had the $5

[RAY WARREN][$5][HAMMOCK ($800)]
[$25][WILDCARD][$10]
[SHELLEY CRAFT][JENNIFER LAWRENCE][BEN FORDHAM]

and Ben Fordham had the $15

[RAY WARREN][$5][HAMMOCK ($800)]
[$25][WILDCARD][$10]
[SHELLEY CRAFT][JENNIFER LAWRENCE][$15]

And Matt, unfortunately, since you are the lowest scorer, I'm afraid we will have to say goodnight to you.

MATT'S PODIUM RESETS TO ZERO AS HE FADES FROM VIEW

So, it's down to just 60 seconds. Is $14 enough of a buffer for Sam to win his 3rd game, or will John come up trumps. We'll be back shortly with the Mad Minute to find out.

[Shieldsy100]
