(audience cheers) Well, what do you know? Double Play! And we sell $ale baseball caps... apparently. Donald has one for each of you. (Donald passes out ball caps for both Bob and Marc, along with one for everyone) And our studio audience will be getting them during the break. (audience cheers) Now, what this Double Play means is that the next five questions will be worth $10 instead of $5. However, you must be doubly careful, because a wrong answer will cost you $10. Between this and the Brain Drain, there'll be a lot of money up for grabs. How will this affect the scores? We'll find out after these messages. Free caps for everybody! (main theme to commercial as Donald and I start passing out $ale baseball caps, cheers and applause, fade to commercial)
Burton: (VO) This portion of NBC's $ale of the Century: $uper $ale is brought to you by:
Walt Disney World. Join The World's Most Magical Celebration.
And by Donald J. Trump for President. Jobs! Jobs! Jobs!
(shot of Greg on set) Greg: You think tonight's primetime special is good? You ought to see the fun stuff we do every night. (theme starts up as we see fun and funny footage from the regular show, plus some big wins) Burton: (VO) It's the show where anything can happen, and it usually does! Start primetime off with a bang every night on $ale of the Century.WEEKNIGHTS BEFORE PRIMETIME! |

(fade in) (Goofy plays a Latin vamp on the organ)
(every time Greg is about to say something, Goofy plays another vamp) (audience cheers) Greg: Thank you very much, Goofy. (Goofy plays "Hava Nagila")(by the second verse, Greg has his chin in one hand and is tapping the lectern with his fingers in annoyance) Michael: You're about 65 years too late, Goofy.Greg: Now, as I was saying... welcome back. The reason we're all wearing $ale baseball caps is because Marc hit the Double Play in the Fame Game. So, the next five questions are worth $10, plus or minus.
Marc: $30
[G2R2P1: DOUBLE PLAY]
Bob: $30
And with Bob and Marc tied at $30 a piece, it's still anyone's game. Back to the questions. 1. In 2009, what did the "Sears Tower" have its name changed to?
2. What was the middle name of composer Bach?
3. What pro sport did Althea Gibson play when her tennis career ended?
4. Which three states share a border with Michigan?
5. The Peabody Awards for journalism are presented by what school?(buzzcodes and answers, please) |

I don’t know. I’m $60 ahead at the moment, and there’s still a lot of time for Bob to catch up if I let him.

Ha ha ha ha ha! (I urge the audience to join in and start laughing) That was kind of funny, Bob.
OK, Marc, I'll cut down to brass tacks. You're not going to be getting anything for winning with a score over $100. You've got the potential of picking up $40 off the Fame Game board. Anything can happen. I'll drop the price down to $10. You'd still have a $10 lead. What else would you want?
