Put it in my savings account so I can eventually afford an apartment. (Average rent in San Francisco for a 1-bedroom is approximately $3,265 per month).

Alright. I'm sure that 30-grand, or what's left of it after taxes, will go a long way towards that. Congratulations. In the meantime, Hailey Upton of Pasadena, Texas, watching us on KPRC in Houston, you and four other people going to Disney World with $1,000 in cash. Steve, we haven't heard from you in a while. Why don't you tell Hailey what she's won?

Steve: Hailey, in addition to the $1,000 in cash, you and four guests will enjoy a week at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort. Victorian elegance meets modern sophistication at this lavish Disney Resort hotel. Unwind outdoors, indulge in a luxurious massage and watch evening fireworks light up the sky over Cinderella Castle. Just one stop to Magic Kingdom park on the complimentary Resort Monorail, this timeless Victorian-style marvel evokes Palm Beach’s golden era. We are also including passes to Magic Kingdom, EPCOT Center and Disney's Hollywood Studios theme parks. Enjoy your magical vacation valued at approximately $15,000!! Congratulations Hailey! |

(audience cheers) Very nice, Steve. Thank you.
Now, let's get back to the game.
Frank: $40
Vahan: $35
Nicholas: $40
Nicholas, the champ, is tied with Frank at $40, with Vahan not far behind at $35. In other words, $5 separates first and third, so it's anyone's game.
1. What is the only rock that will float on water?
2. Who are "the night visitors" in Gian Carlo Menotti's opera Amahl and the Night Visitors?
3. What is the sound of one hand clapping?
(buzzcodes and answers, please)

1. What is the only rock that will float on water? (buzzcode: 76) *Vahan buzzes in (58)*Vahan? Vahan: Pumice StoneCorrectamundo. Vahan gives us a three-way tie. (ding)
Frank: $40
Vahan: $40
Nicholas: $40
2. Who are "the night visitors" in Gian Carlo Menotti's opera Amahl and the Night Visitors? (buzzcode: 17) *Nicholas buzzes in (2)*Nicholas? Nicholas: Amahl, Amahl's Mother, King Kaspar, King Melchior, King Balthazar, The Page, Shepherds, Shepherdesses(A buzzer comes in after he utters "Amahl's Mother")Nicholas, I'm sorry. We're going to have to cut you off there. We were looking for the "three wise men", "three kings of Orient are", "the Magi", something along those lines. You practically gave us the entire cast list. $5 off for that.
Frank: $40
Vahan: $40
Nicholas: $35
3. What is the sound of one hand clapping? (buzzcode: 48) *Vahan buzzes in (63)*Vahan? Vahan: A KoanThat's correct. Now, if you'd given me the actual sound of one hand clapping, I'd have been very surprised. (ding)
Frank: $40
Vahan: $45
Nicholas: $35

[___FELL_____] [____IN_______] [____WELL_____]
[TIMMY]
(ding)(audience cheers) That's right. It is Timmy. The full puzzle reads, "Lassie's owner, never fell in well". You know that old joke, "What is it? Did Timmy fall in the well?". Well he was never stuck in a well. He fell into abandoned mine shafts, off cliffs, into rivers, lakes and quicksand, but he never fell into a well. Who says this show isn't educational? Stacey, where's the $25 Money Card? |

Greg: $8,000 in cash! We're giving away a lot of cash today. Congratulations, Frank. I'm sorry that doesn't help your score any, but the money should make up for it. With $10 separating first and third, this is going to be one of the closest Century Rounds we've had in a long time. Will Nicholas come from behind? Will Vahan beat him soundly? Or will Frank overtake them both? Find out after these messages! (main theme to commercial, cheers and applause, fade to commercial)

*Staff Note:* Each Fame Game is played separately, as prizes are added and removed as the game continues. Some features, like the *TRIPLE PLAY* and *DECISION* for example, are only in play for the first two rounds. Major prizes, usually a ~$25,000 Car or $10-$20,000 in Cash, as well as the $5,000 or Pick Again are only available in the third FG. As such, the prizes and numbers that go with them are assigned prior to each fame game. The letters only determine which number is landed on for the selection.
We typically do not reveal which letters led to what numbers, but in this instance as the FG portions of the show have already been played...
H:1:$15
G:2:PRIZE
B:3:$12,000 Cash
I:4:$5,000 or Pick AGAIN
F:5:$8,000 (Selected)
D:6:$10
A:7:$3,000 (Already Played)
C:8:BURGLAR (Steal $10 from an Opponent)
E:9:$25
