Whoooooo baby! That is the highest valued prize we've ever offered on the show, and someone is going to win it. OK. Let's get back to the match.
Marc: $25 Vahan: LOCKED OUT James: $25
Vahan is locked out for this round, so it's between Marc and Vahan, who are tied at $25 a piece. Let's get back to the questions.
1. How many Oscars did the 1997 movie Titanic win? 2. In what Caribbean country did steel drums originate? 3. What US city is mentioned in the first line of the Bob Seger song "Turn the Page"? 4. What decade gave us the first ATM? 5. In what part of a flower is pollen produced?
(buzzcodes and answers via PM, please; Vahan does not participate for these five questions)

["Catch the Buzz" by Gordon Brisker](two special guests spend time together in this outdoor space) Stacey: As.... wait, who are you two?(the two guests make themselves known as Angela and Tony [Judith Light and Tony Danza], the audience lets out a loud cheer) Tony: Stacey, why don't we go ahead and take over this one? (Stacey agrees) We know springtime is a great time to get your outdoor space ready for the season and we are here to help with a $20,000 gift card to The Home Depot.
Judith: You can plan and design a backyard paradise. An outdoor grill, all-weather furniture, lighting and options are limitless. Plus, we will include a consultant to help bring your ideas to life. Furnished by Angi.
Tony: This prize package, normally priced at...
can be yours on $ale for only....
(audience cheers as I join Tony and Judith) Greg: Well well well, a blast from the 80s past. If it isn't Tony and Angela. What brings you two down here to Orlando? Judith: You needed some star power for the Tournament of Champions, and Kim and Kanye couldn't make it.Greg: So we did. So, what's everyone doing? Judith: Well, I'm working on post-production for two new series. One of them is Shining Vale, that's on Starz. The other is called Julia, and it's based on the life of Julia Child. I play Blanche Knopf.
Tony: And I was recently in Rumble, where I got to be the voice of a monster wrestling coach. That's on Paramount+....Greg: Tony, do you have to mention Paramount+? Tony: Why not?Greg: You see, we're on NBC, Peacock, Hulu, Disney+.... (Tony and Judith quickly apologize) Greg: Right. (to James) James, you could have (singing) "a brand new deck, brand new deck, a brand new deck around the bend". You only have a $3 lead, could you use $20,000 from The Home Depot?

Well, we could use a deck for my aunt to sit and smoke. Because all she has are the steps. We could build a deck for her to sit on where she won't have to sit on the steps

Oh, that's very convenient. Thinking of your aunt. OK, I won't be able to give you such a generous cut on the price that I gave Vahan. I knocked his down from $5 to $3, but for you, you only have a $3 lead over Vahan. Tell you what, make me an offer and I'll see what I can do.

That's a lot of nerve you got, James.
They call this a game of temptations for a reason. Nearly $25,000 in backyard renovations for $12. Big risks, possibly big payoffs. Not going to touch the price one bit…. But to help with the cost of fuel and the like: (I pull out an envelope from my pocket, open it, and pull out more $1,000 bills) 1…2…3 thousand dollars in cash. $27,500 for just $12 going once… going twice…

No sale. Doesn't want to buy.
Tell you what, Tony and Judith, why don't you two sit over here in the front row and enjoy the show?
Tony: You know what, we'll do that. Thank you.
Greg: Tony Danza and Judith Light, everyone! (audience cheers as the two take their seats, I walk back to my lectern)
Asking me if he'd still be in the lead. Oh well. Back to the questions.
1. According to Tony Danza, who was actually The Boss? 2. What famous rapper's real name is Calvin Broadus? 3. Who produced two booklets for "Comic Relief" under the names Newt Scamander and Kennilworthy Whisp?
