(audience cheers) Well, you're not going to believe this, Wade, but the Power Rangers saved my girlfriend, Stacey, and Mr. Devane, so we have more stuff to talk about during the break. Somebody call security up at Spaceship Earth.
Anyway, Marc.... A trip to Mohegan Sun and $7,000 in cash. Do you like the casinos? Do you do any gambling?

Well, let me see here. We do have to keep this game competitive. Best thing I can do is lower the price by a buck. $10. Take it or no sale.
