[___SOMEONE___] [_____BY______] [__ACCIDENT?__]
[ALEC BALDWIN]
(ding)(audience cheers... kinda) That's right, it is Alec Baldwin, not Ale x. Ale c. I'm sorry about that, Frank. The last syllable made all the difference. The full puzzle reads "Baldwin brother killed someone by accident?". I don't think so. I guess it'll be up to a jury to decide. May God have mercy on his soul. Stacey, where's the $10 Money Card?

(we get a shot of a computer with Charlie O's picture on it) So, we'll be using that until Steve comes back in full form. More game right after this!
