Oddly enough, all rolls are still good. However, that won't be the case for long. We're going to have to take a short break for some station identification, but when we return, we'll finish this game up. James Greek risks over a quarter of a million in cash! Stay with us!

[COMMERCIAL CUE]

Dean: (VO) Stay right where you are! More High Rollers coming up, after a word from your local NBC station!

Now a 12 can clear Column 2, and a 4 or anything using a four, really, can clear Column 1. All rolls are still good, but that's going to change very shortly. Here's the next question.

True or False: The dance for the song "Y.M.C.A." originated on American Bandstand.

James has three trips now up on his side of the board. We have three bad rolls, now. Still anyone can get in here.


Roku translates into what number in Japanese?

(buzzcode and answer, please)

[palmer7]

(buzzcode: 7)

*James buzzes in (6)*
James?
James: 6

That is correct. It was given that name because it was the sixth company founder Anthony Wood started. I don't think he'll need to create any more, though. Bad rolls are 3, 8, and 10, and you have a Liberty Mutual Insurance Marker.

[jman8606]

Let's roll the young lady down to.tbe juicing room at once please.

[palmer7]

(singing) "Oompa loompa doompety dee, the only bad rolls are 10, 8, and 3." Roll!


(James rolls the dice)

Five. That's a good roll. One way to take it out, let's do it.

Good rolls are 2, 4, 6, 7, 9, and 11.

You foodies ought to know this one. What sauce is used in a traditional eggs Benedict?

*Frank buzzes in (67)*
Frank?
Frank: Hollandaise


That is right! (audience cheers)


Frank, the good rolls are 2, 4, 6, 7, 9, and 11. You don't have an Insurance Marker. Roll or pass?

[Frank]

7 is the most common roll, and some other good ones, i'll take a shot

roll

[palmer7]

(Frank rolls the dice)

You're right, it is a 7! (audience cheers) Let's take out the 7, that's the only way to do it.

And would you look at this? A roll of a 6 will win you over $529,000 in prizes plus the right to play "Love Letters" for a brand new car. You thought we'd forgotten, hadn't you?

This question could decide the game.

On The Newlywed Game, when Bob Eubanks talks about "whoopie", what is he really talking about?

(buzzcode and answer, please)

(buzzcode: 24)

*Frank buzzes in (43)*
Frank?
Frank: coitus
Or sex, you're right! (audience cheers)


So, Frank, here's the sitch. If you roll a six, you'll not only win the game, you'll clear the board and have a potential at over $600,000 in prizes. You don't have an Insurance Marker. James does. You have, effectively, one chance, and he has two. What do you want to do? (audience shouts suggestions)

[Frank]

I have to pass

[palmer7]

Alright, James. You have two chances, at least, to roll a 6. That would let you sweep the board and win a whole load of money. Promo guys, get those cameras ready. James.... roll the dice. We want a 6!


(audience starts chanting "6" over and over)


(James rolls the dice)

[DOUBLES]

Eight the hard way, no good here. I'd give you an Insurance Marker, but I'd have to take it right back. (the dice come back) We want a six!


(James rolls the dice)

A seven. Now I have to take the Insurance Marker you do have back. You rolled an 8, and you rolled a 7, so now, we should get a six! (audience chants "6")


(James rolls the dice)

A four! Bad roll!


[BAD ROLL]


Frank wins the first game!

[GAME WIN]

Well, Frank, for all that, you won $5,000 in cash. That's yours. We'll just have to add more prizes to the board for game #2. Dean, what are we adding to add to Column 1 this time?


(prize cue)

Dean: (VO) It's a $100,000 cryptocurrency investment portfolio from Coinbase. Customers around the world discover and begin their journeys with crypto through Coinbase. Approximately 68 million verified users, 9,000 institutions, and 160,000 ecosystem partners in over 100 countries trust Coinbase to easily and securely invest, spend, save, earn, and use crypto. That fills up Column 1 and gives it a value of $629,493!

James needs to win this game to stay in the match and protect his $255,000 in cash. Frank needs this game to win the match and dethrone the champ.


It's hard to believe, but Alfred Hitchcock was frightened of something we use everyday. Was he afraid of pencils, eggs, or water?

(buzzcode and answer, please)

[palmer7]

(buzzcode: 99)

*Frank buzzes in (41)*
Frank?
Frank: eggs

That's exactly right. Believe it or not, Alfred Hitchcock was deathly afraid of eggs.


All rolls are good, so have at it.


(Frank rolls the dice)

First roll is a 7.
