So, let us continue with the game now.
We have that business to decide.
$700 in the pot.
Let's move the categories around.
And after we shuffle, Marcia will continue
in this most critical game for her.
She's looking for a new car if she beats Gary.
Marcia, where is your next move?
Maps of the States.
Maps of States.
The question:
Take a look at this map of the United States, first of all.
In 1979, this state celebrated the centennial
of its native hero, Will Rogers.
Name this state.
I know that that's Oklahoma.
Yes, Oklahoma!
Another X goes on the Board
in Maps of States.
Let's move the categories around.
$900 in the pot.
Gary, now we have shuffled, and it is your turn again.
I'm going to go to block with Maps of States, Wink.
For a block on Maps of States, Gary,
you take a look at this map of the United States, please.
The Carlsbad caverns are one reason
that this states' license plates
proudly proclaim it the Land of Enchantment.
For a block, name it.
That's New Mexico.
Correct.
Good for a block.
New Mexico.
[audience applauding]
An O goes there.
Another $200 in the pot.
And we're coming right down to the wire, Marcia.
Four boxes are left on the Board, possibly a...
well, you could win.
Let's find out now if she does it.
We shuffle and move to Marcia for her next category selection.
I'm gonna try Bills and Billys to win.
If you answer this question on Bills and Billys,
it's worth $1,300 in cash.
You would also win a brand-new car.
That would bring your total winnings, Marcia,
to $23,300 in cash and prizes.
Here's the question for a win:
The novel "Billy Budd" was written by the same author
who told the story of a great white whale.
For a total of $23,300
and a brand-new automobile, name it.
Herman Melville?
Yes, for Tic Tac Dough!
[audience cheering]
So, finally, finally we get to meet, close up, Leonard.
Hi, Leonard.
Hi, Wink.
He can talk, yeah.
[audience laughing]
We kept seeing you give her numbers out there
and give her strategy and tell her what to do.
And, Marcia, you look like you're in love with the guy.
Or you go around hugging every guy you see like that?
No, just him, just him.
Alright. Come back up closer to the microphone now.
Marcia and Leonard, welcome.
Leonard, welcome to you.
Now, we found out at the top of the show,
the first time you came out,
the first time you were introduced as a contestant,
you collect old cars, right?
Mainly Ramblers, and you have, what,
about five of them now?
I do.
What if we told you we were gonna give you
a Rambler instead of that brand-new car?
Would you take it or...
Uh, I'd take the brand-new car.
I kinda thought so.
It's kinda good. 'Cause we were gonna
do that anyway, but I just thought I'd ask.
Marcia, again, congratulations to you.
Thank you.
Gary Lorden,
it was a good,
good, valiant effort on your part,
but you came up on the short end.
However, we do have for you a couple of nice prizes
as going-away gifts.
Let's have a nice round of applause
for Gary Lorden.
Thank you, Wink.
Who played a good game
against Marcia.
[audience applauding]
But one category got to him.
Okay. Marcia, Leonard, you're ready?
Come on over and let's beat the Dragon, hopefully.
[audience applauding]
Let's put her in the middle, okay?
Here we go. Leonard, you go right over there.
I [unintelligible] stand here.
Alright, you know what you're trying for?
You're going for... remember the mantle clock,
very nice clock, the lamps,
the furniture, beautiful furniture
and cash and prizes.
All of that comes to over $3,550.
You had a shot at it at the beginning of the show
when you beat the last opponent before this guy.
But you missed out 'cause you found the Dragon.
Are you ready?
I'm ready.
Alrighty. You're gonna see the Dragon jumping
all over the Board if you look at him.
You're gonna see him and we're gonna say
goodbye to him one final time
because I feel very strongly that with Leonard's help,
and only with Leonard's help,
with him standing this close to you,
that you are gonna come up with the winning combination of numbers.
You're ready?
Yes.
Go.
Five.
Number 5 in the center.
Let's see what's behind Number 5.
Is it a good number?
Yes. $250.
[audience applauding]
You always start hot.
All right, you wanna let Leonard pick one?
Six.
Number 6.
He feels 6 is a good lucky number.
You need $750 to win all of those nice prizes.
(Audience) Aw.
[Dragon roars]
You did it again. You found the Dragon.
Six.
Send him home.
Send him home?
Do you really mean that the way you were there hugging him?
No.
No, you don't
really mean that.
She's kidding. Let's look at the rest of the Board.
So many good numbers up there, so many winning combinations,
but you came up with Number 6.
Leonard, what do you have to say for yourself?
Send me home.
[audience laughing]
Alright. I'll tell you what, you won, though.
You won the car. Nobody's gonna take that away from you.
All of that money, that cash, all of those prizes.
Up to now, you have a total of $23,300
in cash and merchandise.
Leonard, I just
want you to get that.
We sure do.
You proud of her?
Without me.
Alright. We'll talk about marriage later then.
We're gonna send you back out there.
We're gonna send you over there
to play again against the new opponent, okay?
Go over there, Marcia.
[audience applauding]
Here we go, Jay Stewart,
who's next to take on Marcia in a new game?
(Jay) I'd like you to meet a senior at UCLA
studying Economics.
And her interests include tennis
and professional football.
Meet Cynthia Neiman.
[audience applauding]
I can hardly believe my ears, Cynthia.
First of all, welcome to Tic Tac Dough.
Thank you.
A football fan, huh?
What's your favorite team?
I was raised in Minnesota,
so my favorite team is the Vikings.
Uh, how did you get so interested in football?
I mean it's one thing to be a girl interested in football.
But why...I know the Vikings. But why football?
Both my parents are really big football fans.
They took us to all the games,
even when it was like 30 degrees below zero.
Thirty below?
Sometimes even colder.
How did you manage in a situation like...
I mean, cold is cold.
Well, we used to put baggies on our feet for insulation
and wear about 12 layers of clothing.
And if you had to go to the ladies' room,
you miss half of the game, right?
Yeah.
[audience laughing]
Well, listen, you don't have to get
quite so dressed up to play our game.
