On A Roll (CBS Daytime; Ep. 58; aud. game)

[dougmorrisontheair]

Second letter, please, Wally.

(ding)

It's an R.

For $2500, what is this thing?

[Bryan]

Probably won’t make sense but I’ll say it anyway.

PREACH

[dougmorrisontheair]

(scattered groans)

You will let us know when you like a guess, right?

(scattered laughter from crowd)

Wally, is the word -- preach?

(buzz)

(audience groans)

Negative. Okay. Last roll for $1250. You'll need to solve it on this roll to have a chance to play Lucky 7. Avoid doubles -- and the roll of a 1 and a 2 -- or it's all over.


(audience cheers as...) (Bryan rolls)

And -- easy decision with the roll of a 2 and a 6. You just played the 2. So we'll automatically play the 6.


(ding)

The sixth letter is an N.

For $1250 and a berth in Lucky 7, Bryan, what is this Big 6 thing?

[Bryan]

PRISON

[dougmorrisontheair]

(scattered groans)

Again they're groaning because prison would be assigned the more specific hint of "place" and not "thing".

But -- let's hope for the best.

Wally, for $1250 and possibly more in Lucky 7, is the word -- prison?













































(buzz; NYSI89 losing horns; audience groans)

No -- and you finish with $500 -- which, as of now, is your total in cash winnings.

We have a free moment. Wally, please show us the extra hint had Bryan, or Kevin for that matter, won the main game with just one clue fully revealed.

(FF reveal sfx)

And I would clarify the extra hint since we didn't have the room.

The Big 6 word, which is a thing, is also the last name of Sheldon Cooper's favorite television professor -- across "The Big Bang Theory" and "Young Sheldon". Would that have helped, Bryan?

[Bryan]

PROTON

[dougmorrisontheair]

That's gotta be it.

(ding)

(scattered applause)

And it is.

Well -- $500 -- better than nothing.

More importantly -- a chance to win more if you win the next game.

We'll play a *quick* audience game involving prime numbers -- after this.

(theme plays; audience cheers)

[dougmorrisontheair]

Okay, let's wrap up this game with an audience game.

We'll bypass qualifying. Next NGCer to respond to this thread who hasn't played in said thread may play said audience game.

You in?

[pathfinder20]

I would like to play.

[dougmorrisontheair]

(theme plays; audience cheers)

We're back with more of On A Roll. We'll we tried giving away some money *with*... (points to crew)

Crew: (in unison) ROCK PAPER SCISSOR LIZARD SPOCK!

(audience cheers)

...but -- that didn't work. So we'll try a game with prime numbers. Scientists and math nerds love them some prime numbers.

A nice hand for Kourtney who's going to play Prime Time.

(audience cheers)

Kourtney, before we start, please tell us about yourself.

[pathfinder20]

Well, I am a shift leader at Firehouse Subs and have been there a total of 15 years. I am collector of stationary and cigar boxes. I also like learning languages, watching older serials, using different technology items.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Nice variety of interests. Good luck to you in this game.

Now in Prime Time, six different numbers are in play. Mathematicians tell us these three numbers...

(ding)

...are considered prime -- 2, 3, and 5. That means these three other numbers...

(ding)

...are not prime -- 1, 4, and 6.

Now, Shelly is going to roll a dice cube once. Before her roll, you must predict whether or not she will roll a prime number.

Kourtney, if you make the right prediction, you will win -- how much, Tiffany?

Tiffany: (quick shot of her at announcer's area) Kourtney, this might sway your decision. You're playing for a prime amount of money. $10,039 in cash.

(audience cheers)

(ding)

Ohhh -- kay -- clever. $10,039.

Do you think Shelly will roll a prime number? Yes or no?

(audience shouts suggestions)

[pathfinder20]

Yes.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Kourtney predicts Shelly *will* roll a prime number. Wally, please darken the numbers that are not prime.

(ding)

This leaves the 2, 3, and 5 active. If Shelly rolls a 2, 3, or 5, Kourtney, you are $10,039 richer.

Shelly -- it's all on you. No pressure.

(audience cheers as Shelly rolls cube borrowed from current version of LMaD since, after all, we tape in the same building)

(dings; SCSD win theme plays; audience cheers)

It's a 5! That's a win!

(FF reveal sfx)

$10,000 and change for you and a Bazinga! from Wally.

Congratulations, Kourtney.

[pathfinder20]

Thank you everyone! It has been a good roll.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Indeed a good roll. Bryan's looking to get on a roll toward riches. Our new champion will play for a lot more cash the next time we get together here at the dice table.

'Til then, make it a great day, keep the faith, and treasure your loved ones.

(closing theme plays; audience applause)
