[IN$TANT CA$H]And that sound means it's time for Instant Cash. James, you're still in the lead.
[IN$TANT CA$H]
[$$$$$$$]
[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]
Three screens here. Behind one is our jackpot, which has grown to....
[IN$TANT CA$H]
[$15,000]
[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]
$15,000 in cash! (audience cheers) A second hides $1,000 in cash, and a third also hides $1,000 with the bonus of an extra pick off the Winners' Board should you win the game. James, you're in the lead by $19. That's how much it will cost you to play. You're a good player, but it's your decision. (audience shouts suggestions)

1. What TV family lived at Southfork Ranch in Texas? (buzzcode: 56) *James buzzes in (78)*James? James: the ewings!Exactly right, up to $45. (ding)
James: $45
Frank: $35
Brendan: $40
2. What hotel/motel chain adopted its name based on its original room rate? (buzzcode: 5) *James buzzes in (6, 1st to respond)*James? James: Motel 6Yes, indeed. Up to $50. (ding)
James: $50
Frank: $35
Brendan: $40
3. Budapest is the capital of which European country? (buzzcode: 25) *James buzzes in (15)*James again? James: HungaryI'm getting pretty Hungary myself. You're right. (ding)
James: $55
Frank: $35
Brendan: $40
4. What Shakespearean character has the most lines? (buzzcode: 72) *James buzzes in (69)*James? James: Hamlet(brief stopdown, edit) As it turns out, Hamlet, with 1569 lines, has the most lines of any character in a single play. Henry V, however, speaks the most lines of any character (if we combine his lines in Henry V, and 1 and 2 Henry IV). The way the question was worded was ambiguous, so to be fair, we will throw this question out and have a replacement question. 5. In Old School, what actor is caught streaking and says, "Come on snoop, snoopaloop, bring your green hat"? (buzzcode: 91) *Brendan buzzes in (53)*Brendan? Brendan: Will FerrellThat is right, Brendan goes up to $45. (ding)
James: $55
Frank: $35
Brendan: $45
Replacement Question: The ailment known as conjunctivitis is also known by what colorful name? (buzzcode and answer, please) |

The ailment known as conjunctivitis is also known by what colorful name? (buzzcode: 57) *James buzzes in (69)*James? James: Pink eyeCorrect again. (ding)
James: $60
Frank: $35
Brendan: $45
Well, let's see where we are at this point. James is at $60, Brendan at $45, and Frank... you're in deep trouble. You need to secure control and get at least a $10 Money Card to tie Brendan, a $15 to overtake him. Otherwise, you are headed home. This puzzle focuses on a famous PERSON.

[RYAN SEACREST]
(ding)He got it! (audience cheers) Alright, Frank, nice anticipation. Full puzzle read "Pat Sajak's Replacement on Wheel: 2024". I don't know if they had auditions for the gig, but they got a safe choice. They could've asked me. Next thing you know, he'll be hosting all the Miss Universe Organization pageants. (rolling my eyes) Stacey, where's the $25 Money Card? |

I say give Ryan Seacrest some time before making judgement (and he hasn't even started his Wheel hosting job yet).
Anyway, let's keep the game going when you're ready please?
