Concentration: Episode 19 (END)

Let's flip that over...

*dingdingding*

And with that, you've taken control of the other Take!

You can only use one because Jake has only one prize. How about it?

[pathfinder20]

I will take the ranch vacation. Hands over take to Kevin.

[koopakid17]

Then that vacation is yours.

Don't have to worry about Jake stealing it right back because you have the other on reserve. Kourtney, take a look at the puzzle after we turn over two more numbers.

[pathfinder20]

I am going to take a guess: BUST A MOVE?

[koopakid17]

Is it BUST A MOVE?

*bell sequence*

Yes, it is! That will do it for this game. More importantly, that will do it for Jake as our champion. With that solve, you have ended his reign. What made you want to guess, Kourtney?

[pathfinder20]

I saw the bus and the cow mooing. The rest was pretty much an educated guess and hoping I was right.

[koopakid17]

To solve with only that much showing is impressive in itself. It got you a couple nice prizes. Debra?

Debra: A new computer! The Dell Inspiron all-in-one computer is perfect for gaming or business with its 27-inch screen, Intel Core i7 processor and 16 gigabytes of memory. It comes equipped with 16 gigabytes of memory, a one terabyte solid state drive and a Windows 11 operating system for maximum reliability and proficiency.

And you can do it all on a ranch vacation in Jackson Hole, Wyoming! You and a guest will fly round trip to Jackson Hole, Wyoming. You'll spend six nights at the Goosewing Ranch, a historic guest ranch hosting many a cowboy since 1897. Explore nature and the wilderness like you've never seen before on horseback. Also, explore the many hiking trails, fishing spots as you admire the stunning Teton scenery.

Two wonderful prizes totaling $8,485! Congratulations!

Me: What an ending to this episode. We'll have our final recap when we come back!

[koopakid17]

We've come to the end of two things on Concentration, one of them being a champion's historic run, the other being this episode. I'll chat a bit with our players before I sign off. Kourtney, one of your prizes was a ranch vacation. Ever done that before, or something similar?

[pathfinder20]

Actually never been on a Ranch before. I am looking forward to saddling up and see where the road takes me.

[koopakid17]

Bound to be quite an adventure for you. You are going to defend your title tomorrow. This means we have to say goodbye to one heck of a player. Jake, it seems like yesterday you won those swing dancing lessons during your first game. Here you are now, two cars, nine trips, a cruise, $30,000 in cash and a whole bunch of knickknacks later. You leave us having won 16 games and $258,051 in winnings. Jake, anything you want to say before I sign off?

[dawes55000]

Oh dear, my little brain lapse proved to be my undoing. I'll try to pick up the pieces and move on with my life.

*Laughter*

No, but seriously, I couldn't stay here forever, could I? Sooner or later, my run had to end. I had a wonderful run and had so much fun. Thank you for having me...

But mark my words, this game hasn't seen the last of me. *Arnold Schwarzenegger voice I'll be back for the Tournament of Champions (if you're going to have one that is).

So long! Kourtney, hopefully you have just as good a run as me.

[koopakid17]

You'd be a frontrunner if we did have a tournament of champions. You never know what we'll have cooking in case we do. Again, I'd like to congratulate you for your impressive run, and we thank you for being on this show.

We also thank you at home for tuning in. See you next time here on Concentration!
