Well, I'm gonna go again for the center
Linda.
One of the most stylized of the musicals,

Here's your extra time.
Why do I pick hard ones?
Linda, we're talking about a most stylized musical,
introducing such songs as "I Feel Pretty" and "Maria,"
was set against the background of love and gang warfare
in New York City.
First, name the film.
You're halfway there.
Name one of the two warring gangs.
I think it was the Sharks.

Might have been a guess, but it was a good one.
Put an O there. Let's move the categories around.
Another $300 in the pot.
Pot is now worth $2,200.
Well, Paul, if nothing else, we got above $1,900.

Oh, boy.
Well, I need Latin America for the block,
and I don't know a thing about it.
Well, what do you wanna do? You wanna...
Alright.
Answer this, and you'll block Paul.
This strait was named after
a famous Portuguese explorer
who sailed around the world.
To block Paul, name it.
Yes, that's right.
I can't believe it.
[audience applauding]
We put an O there.
Linda, before we shuffle the categories,
let me ask you one question, may I?
do you know?
[audience laughing]
That, I had no idea where the Straits of Magellan were.
That's how I guessed the answer.
In other words, that was your answer.
That was it.
I kinda got that impression the way you said Straits of Magellan.
It was like asking me a question.
the categories around.
$2,600 in the pot. Paul?
Again, Latin America.
You're trying to block Linda.
Answer this, and you'll do that, Paul.
One of these South American countries
does have a coastline.
For a block, is it Bolivia,
Paraguay or Brazil?
Yes, that's right.
[audience applauding]

Now, then, we have four boxes left on the Board.
Linda, we're gonna shuffle,
and you take a look at those subjects.

I'm gonna stick with Numbers.
Gonna go with Numbers?

Yes, that's right.
[audience applauding]
Put an O there.

As we shuffle, we find Numbers and Foreign Words.
Well, I need Numbers to block.

between Paul and Linda.
Linda, for a tie game, here's the question:
In the classic Charles Atlas ad,
a weakling is driven to action
after having sand kicked in his face.
For a tie, how much did he weigh?
Right. For a tie game.
[audience applauding]

hey, before we start, I noticed there's a gentlemen
on the first row out there who is just going wild
every time Linda... It never happens when Paul answers a question.
Only happens with... So, perhaps, uh...
that's my honey.
What is this honey of a name?
Hello, Joe.
How are you?
[audience applauding]
Personal question, Linda. Does he belly dance, too?
No, he just grins a lot.
[audience laughing]
And you're giving him a lot of cause to grin, too.
Alright, Paul, let's begin. What subject would you like?
I pretty strong about World Capitals,
$300 to the pot.
Listen carefully. I'll give you a little extra time, of course.
I'll give you the names of two South American countires,
and you tell me their capital cities.
First, Colombia. Secondly, Peru.
Think about that.
Tell me their capital cities, Paul.
Bogota.
Lima.
[audience applauding]
Let's move the categories around.
