(fade in, main theme closes, cheers and applause)We're back, and it's been a big day so far for Marc Enyedy. He just won a Ferrari worth close to $600,000. However, we must carry on with the game. Frank: $35 James: $45 Marc: $55
Marc leads with $55, James at $45, Frank at $35. Before we go any further, I must introduce our act for this game. Take it as a hint, the band is Yes. The lead vocalist, however, is someone who is no stranger to The Walt Disney Company. He's been around since the days of The Gummi Bears, and while his characters have had songs, he's never had a chance to sing them. Please welcome Jason Marsden! (audience cheers) OK, we'll hear from him in just a bit. First, some questions. 1. What common cooking ingredient gets its name from the French words meaning "sour wine"? 2. The anniversary of the death of what magician is recognized as National Magic Day in the US? 3. Kurt Cobain, Krist Novoselic, and Dave Grohl were the three members of what musical band? 4. According to Betsy Ross' family, what was the first American flag made from? 5. Give me the next line to this Yes song.Here's Jason Marsden with Yes! (the music starts up) Jason (with the group on backing):
You wanna get close to me, the feeling so clear But I need some time to see, vision through my tears You wanna get next to me, I need your intrusion I don't need to be blinded by confusion
Here is my heart, waiting for you Here is my soul; I eat at Chez Nous
Love will find a way, if you want it to Love will find a way, love will find a way for me and you
Steve Howe: Love will find a way... Love will find a way... Love will find a way... Love will find...
Jason: a way
So you want to get over me,
(buzzcodes and answers, please)

We'll start off by adding $500,000 in cash... (ooooh) plus the cash equivalent of the car Marc already won, so that's $1,080,000 in cash. (ooooh) Plus the statue, the 110-grand in insurance, the 146" monitor unit, and the 50-year subscription to Peacock Premium Plus. That makes CashCard tonight worth a whopping.... $2,165,994 in cash and prizes! (audience cheers) Marc, it will cost you $10 to play, the amount of your lead. If you say no, somebody in America will be playing for all that loot. It's the last CashCard of the tournament, the last one on NBC.... are you going to play? (audience shouts suggestions)

Isaac: Isaac Sims, from Fond du Lac, Wisconsin.Greg: Wisconsin, eh? Well, my computer is showing me that you watch on NBC 26, WGBA. Isaac, just for picking up the phone, you've won a family vacation for five to Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. Isaac: That's great!Greg: And more importantly, you have a chance now at over $2,000,000 in cash and prizes. If you can find the CashCard, you'll win that whole lot of cash and prizes. So, which suit do you want? Isaac: Diamonds, please.Greg: OK, he wants diamonds. Marc, if you had played, which suit would you have chosen?

It all.....am I getting this right? It all goes to the grand champion. (audience whoooos) Are we really giving the ultimate winner over $8 million in cash and stuff? To quote Conan O'Brien....Yes we are! (audience cheers)
Anyway, Isaac, I am also going to make an executive decision. You don't get $5,000. We're going to give you $50,000! (audience cheers)
Isaac: $50,000! Oh my gosh... thank you so much.
Greg: What are you going to do with the money?
Isaac: Pay off some student loans!
Greg: I say that's a great choice. Well, you'll be going to Disney World with $50,000 in cash. Thank you for playing, and stay on the line so we can get those prizes out to you.
Isaac: Thank you so much.
Greg: Bye. (I hang up, audience cheers) Alright then. Let's get back to the questions.

1. What U.S. State was the first to recognize Christmas as an official holiday? (buzzcode: 11) *Marc buzzes in (7, 1st to respond)*Marc? Marc: AlabamaYes, sweet home Alabama. Sweet home for James, anyway. (ding) Frank: $40 James: $55 Marc: $70
2. In the eye, what is the more common name for the condition also known as "lens opacity"? (buzzcode: 54) *James buzzes in (55)*James? James: cataractsYes, that's right. James up to $60. (ding) Frank: $40 James: $60 Marc: $70
3. Which two US states do not share a border with any other state? (buzzcode: 18) *James buzzes in (46)*James? James: Alaska and HawaiiIndeed. Up to $65. (ding) Frank: $40 James: $65 Marc: $70
[FAME GAME]As we enter the final Fame Game, Marc leads by $5. James won last night's match by $10. Therefore, a Money Card is crucial for Marc. Frank needs a $25 Money Card to stay in the running in this match. James needs to maintain his lead. A Money Card is crucial. However, also consider this. The car is gone, but we are adding $250,000 in cash and hiding it up on the board! (audience cheers) So, control of the board is critical. We're looking for a FICTIONAL CHARACTER.
