That is right! Nicely solved, Vahan. The full puzzle reads "Sandwich cookie Oreo is imitation of". Hydrox. The sandwich cookie with the crappy name. Stacey, where is that $15 Money Card?

$2,500 in cash, ladies and gentlemen. Well, Vahan keeps collecting the loot, and Amanda still doesn't have a damn thing. We're trying to get this poor girl in the Tournament of Champions, and she hasn't won anything. We hope to change that in our next segment. Stick around, folks. Special musical guest coming up! (main theme to commercial, cheers and applause, clips of Steve surrounded by Disney princesses, fade to commercial)
Greg: Hey, everyone. There are streaming channels for every show these days, so why not one for $ale of the Century? (clips from the Perry, Australian, UK, and Palmer versions of the show) All $ale, all the time. (fade in, main theme closes, cheers and applause)(shot of Amanda) Greg: This is Amanda, ladies and gentlemen. Get a good look at her face. We're trying to get this girl into the Tournament of Champions. Amanda: $35 Frank: $35 Vahan: $72
Vahan has a $37 lead, though, and he is hot. Now, should Amanda fail to win something, we will put the names of all the contestants who didn't win anything into a hat and draw one name. That name will go on and complete our grid of nine. Vahan and Frank are already in. Anyway, let's get to the next set of questions. 1. What movie, starring and written by Sylvester Stallone, was the first sports-themed movie to win the Oscar for Best Picture? 2. What is the capitol of California? 3. Judge Bruce Schroeder is presiding over the case featuring what man accused of homicide in Kenosha, Wisconsin? 4. With the initials "M.L.", which member of The Beach Boys allegedly has no talent? 5. Give me the next line to this song.Here to perform it is Boston! (cheers and applause as Tommy DeCarlo stands by and gets close to Amanda) Tommy: Babe, tomorrow's so far away There's something I just have to say I don't think I can hide what I'm feelin' inside Another day, knowin' I love you And I, I'm getting too close again I don't want to see it end If I tell you tonight will you turn out the light And walk away knowin' I love you?
I'm gonna take you by surprise and make you realize Amanda I'm gonna tell you right away, I can't wait another day Amanda I'm gonna say it like a man and make you understand Amanda

1. What movie, starring and written by Sylvester Stallone, was the first sports-themed movie to win the Oscar for Best Picture? (buzzcode: 65) *Vahan buzzes in (65)*Vahan? Vahan: RockyIndeed it was, Vahan goes ahead. (ding) Amanda: $35 Frank: $35 Vahan: $77
2. What is the capitol of California? (buzzcode: 40) *Frank buzzes in (41)*Frank? Frank: SacramentoThat is indeed the capital. Frank goes to $40, taking second place. (ding) Amanda: $35 Frank: $40 Vahan: $77
3. Judge Bruce Schroeder is presiding over the case featuring what man accused of homicide in Kenosha, Wisconsin? (buzzcode: 9) *Frank buzzes in (25)*Frank again? Frank: Kyle Rittenhouse Whom, I am happy to report (as this round is being graded) is innocent on all counts! (audience cheers) Amanda: Didn't you have something in the game about him already?Yes, I did. (ding) Amanda: $35 Frank: $45 Vahan: $77
4. With the initials "M.L.", which member of The Beach Boys allegedly has no talent? (buzzcode: 74) *Vahan buzzes in (62)*Vahan? Vahan: Mike LoveTo be fair, he did write some of "Kokomo". (ding) Amanda: $35 Frank: $45 Vahan: $82
5. Give me the next line to this song. (cheers and applause as Tommy DeCarlo stands by and gets close to Amanda) (throughout, Steven and the audience wave glow sticks we have provided for them during the break) Tommy: Babe, tomorrow's so far away There's something I just have to say I don't think I can hide what I'm feelin' inside Another day, knowin' I love you And I, I'm getting too close again I don't want to see it end If I tell you tonight will you turn out the light And walk away knowin' I love you?
I'm gonna take you by surprise and make you realize Amanda I'm gonna tell you right away, I can't wait another day Amanda I'm gonna say it like a man and make you understand Amanda (buzzcode: 60) *Vahan buzzes in (61)*Vahan: And I feel like today's the day I'm lookin' for the words to say(buzzer)You forgot three very important words. "I love you". Sorry, we'll have to take off for that. Amanda: $35 Frank: $45 Vahan: $77
Boston, everyone! (audience cheers as Boston bows) [CASHCARD]And Vahan, now you have a decision to make. You can play CashCard for $25,000 in cash... but it will cost you $32 to play. That's the amount of your lead. You're a good player, and you could easily make it up. Plus, Amanda would probably love you, too. So, what do you say?
