Whatever.
Greg: (VO) Previously on High Rollers.... (footage of the show from "last week", appropriate graphics follow) Now, there's almost 1.5 million dollars in cash and prizes on the board. James Greek's Big Numbers Bank stands at $605,000. Will he take the money and run, or will he try to take us for more loot? Find out.... right now! [OPENING THEME](cheers and applause)Dean Goss: (VO) And now, a game of high stakes! Where every decision is a gamble, and every move could be your last! (cheers and applause)And now, from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, here's the man with all the action.... GREG PALMER!(wild cheers and applause, as I walk to the dice table with the dice) Executive Producer Emeritus MERRILL HEATTER
Executive Producers MARK BURNETT GREG PALMER
Executive Producers BARRY POZNICK JOHN STEVENS WINK MARTINDALE
Directed by MIGUEL ENCISO
Greg: Thank you, Dean Goss! (shot of Dean, saluting the camera; back to Greg) Welcome to High Rollers. We've got quite a crowd here, and as you can see, dinner is now being served. On our last episode, we called in Hell's Kitchen in Las Vegas and ordered in food. We're going to get that served right now. This week, we're going to be doing things differently. I realize now that more time should be devoted to the game. If I really wanted to make an ass of myself, I'd be guest hosting The Tonight Show. Then again, I'd have to be a bigger one than Jimmy Fallon. (to editors) Make sure you cut that out of the reruns. As I was saying.... Skill, strategy, sabotage and these unpredictable dice are the elements we have for you tonight as our contestants compete for almost 1.5 million in cash and prizes up on our game board. (audience cheers) And whoever wins a two-out-of-three match gets to play The Big Numbers for possibly millions of dollars. Let's bring in our current champion, James Greek! (James is escorted by two lovely female models, audience cheers) Now, James, you currently have $605,000 in your Big Numbers Bank. You can either take the money and all the other cash and prizes you've won and leave, or stay and play the next game. Should you win this match, you'd be playing the Big Numbers for $100,000 a number or $1,000,000 for clearing all nine. (audience cheers) So, will you take the money and run, or stay and play? You've had all week to think it over. What's your decision?

(audience cheers)
Good choice, I'd say. And let's meet your challenger, coming to us all the way from Sydney, Australia, Brendan Richards! (audience cheers as Brendan is escorted to his spot and James takes his position)
G'day, Brendan. Welcome to Las Vegas. Tell us a bit about yourself.

Well, for the benefit of those new to Game Show Paradise (and a reminder for those who've seen me on Game Show Paradise games before), by day I do data maintenance for a specialist company, and outside of that I write songs for community theatre, enjoy travelling and photography.

That's excellent. Two things I wanted to point out: Australia had their own version of High Rollers back in the day, and if you're an Aussie, you might recognize the woman. That's Delvene Delaney before she was on The Young Doctors and $ale of the Century. Interesting photo there. Now, Brendan, I noticed you have "rage" on your hat. What is "rage"?

Well, "rage" is a long-running music clip show, like what MTV... used to be, but I won't go into that.

I think ViacomCBS would appreciate that. Good luck to you. Let's take a look at our board. [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ]
[$629493] [$500000] [$348570]
GOOD ROLLS: [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]
[COLUMN 1: CELL PHONE 100 AMAZON SHARES HAWAII PRIVATE ISLAND COINBASE]
[COLUMN 2: SPACE CAMP FOR 10 LUXOR/CAIRO CATTLE DRIVE DRYVER FOR YR. LAMB HOUSE]
[COLUMN 3: RING $25,000 CASH]
Already, we have a bunch of great prizes up there. In Column 1, a very expensive cell phone that James has his eyes on, 100 shares of Amazon stock, a trip to Hawaii, a $100,000 cryptocurrency portfolio, and if that wasn't enough, a private island. Over $629,000 there. Column 2 has quite a bit there as well. There's a trip for 10 to Space Camp, a trip to the Luxor right here in Las Vegas and a trip to Egypt, a three-week cattle drive vacation, and when you're done with all that, your Dryver can drive you to your new home which just happened to be used in Silence of the Lambs. $500,000 total there. Column 3 has a really expensive emerald and diamond ring, plus $25,000 in cash, and we're going to add one more prize to that. What is it, Dean Goss? ("Nights on Broadway" [Instrumental])Dean: (VO) Well, Greg, one of our contestants could be spending a lot of "Nights on Broadway" because we're adding a major investment in a Broadway musical. In addition to being credited above the title in the Playbill as a producer, you are eligible to be nominated for a Tony Award for the production, receive additional profit participation, participate in meetings, and have much more access to the inner-workings of the production than a simple investor does. Plus, you’ll have access to purchase house seats to almost every show on Broadway, on tour and on London's West End. Furnished by Cody Lassen & Associates. That brings the total of Column 3 to $750,000. That brings the entire value of the board to $1,879,493! [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ]

Audience, these people are playing for a ton of money, so no shouting out the answers. Thank you. Which one of the Bee Gees cupped his hand over his left ear to center his tone? Robin, Maurice, or Barry?(buzzcode and answer via PM, please)
