00:58As you know, we are the most competitive game in television.
01:00And now, let's meet the three players
01:02who are going to be pressing their luck today,
01:04starting with our returning champion, Tony.
01:06How are you, Tony?
01:07I'm fine. Nice and rested.
01:08Ready to go?
01:09A little bit richer today.
01:10$7,258.
01:12Yeah, my pockets are heavy, but I...
01:14Back for more.
01:15Took it all in pennies, huh?
01:16All in pennies.
01:17All right, Tony.
01:18You ready to meet your competitors?
01:19Yes, sir.
01:20Let's do it.
01:21Your first competitor is Leanne Jelovic.
01:22Did I say that right, Leanne?
01:23Jelovic.
01:24Jelovic.
01:25Close.
01:26And where are you from, Leanne?
01:28I'm from Los Angeles.
01:29Uh-huh.
01:30And I understand you are bilingual.
01:32Actually, trilingual.
01:33Wow.
01:34What languages?
01:35I know you speak English.
01:36I speak English, French, and Spanish.
01:38Oh, that's true.
01:39Do you teach?
01:40I am a bilingual coordinator in L.A. City.
01:43Great.
01:44Well, nice to have you with us.
01:46All right, let's meet the other challenger.
01:48It is Gabe Cohen.
01:50How are you, Gabe?
01:51I'm good, thank you.
01:52Hi, Gabe.
01:53I understand that you hail from up north a ways.
01:55I do, from Toronto, Canada.
01:56Yes.
01:57Uh-huh.
01:58And you are a tennis player?
01:59Uh, yes.
02:00How good are you, D.A.?
02:01How good?
02:02Yeah.
02:03Uh, I'm okay.
02:04Some of the guys are watching, right?
02:05It depends whether you're playing for money or not.
02:07Oh, I see.
02:08Well, you've come to the right place.
02:09Are you ready?
02:10Yes, I am.
02:11I'll tell you what I'm going to do.
02:12I've got four questions.
02:13Your correct answers will, of course, earn you spins at our big Press Your Luck game board.
02:17The more spins you get, the more money you can win.
02:19It's that simple.
02:20Our board is loaded.
02:21Thousands of dollars in cash.
02:22Great prizes.
02:23And every time you stop at the board like this, stop.
02:25You'll win money as I...
02:27Wow.
02:28Wow.
02:29$2,000, folks.
02:30However, on occasion, you'll do something else, which is you'll hit a whammy.
02:32If you do that, you'll reduce your total to zero, so you want to avoid that.
02:35With that in mind, here are the four questions.
02:37Are you all ready to press your luck?
02:38Yes.
02:39Okay.
02:40Let's say you're in an Italian restaurant and you want to use the Italian expression.
02:44What will you say to your waiter if you want your pasta cooked to the tooth?
02:48Tony.
02:49Al dente.
02:50Al dente.
02:51If you are right, Tony, you will pick up three spins.
02:53I'll give your answer and two others to Leanne and Gabe.
02:55If they're right, they'll earn a spin apiece.
02:57Is the correct answer al dente, al polo, or aubergine?
03:02Leanne?
03:03Al dente.
03:04Al dente.
03:05And we'll go over to Gabe.
03:06Yes, I'll say al dente as well.
03:07Al dente didn't say it as well as Leanne, but you happen to be right.
03:09It is al dente.
03:10Leanne gets one spin.
03:14Tony buzzed in, he goes to three, and Gabe gets a spin.
03:18Here's the second question.
03:20Reporters Woodward and Bernstein won fame and fortune uncovering Watergate.
03:25What newspaper did they work for?
03:27Gabe?
03:28The Washington Post.
03:29All right.
03:30Is the correct answer Washington Post, New York Times, or Wall Street Journal, Leanne?
03:33It's the Washington Post.
03:34Leanne says the Washington Post.
03:36Let's see what Tony says.
03:37Washington Post.
03:38All right.
03:39Woodward and Bernstein worked for the Washington Post.
03:42Indeed.
03:43Leanne goes to two, Tony goes to four, and Gabe gets a big three and hits four with that.
03:49Here's the third question.
03:50Picking up a lot of spins here.
03:52Here's a little press your luck beauty tip for all you girls.
03:55What does cover girl Christy Brinkley say she puts on her lips first to keep her lipstick from running?
04:04Gabe?
04:05Lip prime.
04:06Lip prime.
04:08Why not?
04:09Is the correct answer lip prime, powder, or blusher?
04:14Leanne?
04:15I'm gonna say powder.
04:17Leanne is going to say powder.
04:18Let's go over to Tony.
04:19I have to go with the lady on this one, powder.
04:22Powder.
04:23You're a smart guy, Tony, because it happens to be powder.
04:26Lip prime.
04:30All right.
04:31Leanne goes to four, and Tony goes to five.
04:34Does she go to four?
04:35Three.
04:36Three.
04:37She goes to three.
04:38I tried to give you an extra spin, Leanne.
04:39I'm a nice guy.
04:40Tony's at five, and Gabe is at four with his lip prime.
04:43Okay, Gabe.
04:44Now is the fourth question.
04:46American income tax was started to help finance what war?
04:52Tony.
04:53The Civil War.
04:54All right.
04:55Is the correct answer the Civil War, World War I, or World War II, Leanne?
04:59I think it was World War I.
05:01Leanne says it's World War I.
05:02Let's go over to Gabe.
05:03I'm gonna say World War I.
05:05Well, since Tony looks like the elder statesman, it is.
05:08It is the Civil War.
05:10Tony was right.
05:12That leaves us with Leanne with three.
05:14Tony picks up a hot three, goes to eight spins.
05:17Gabe stays at four.
05:18Well done.
05:19You're all gonna have a chance to convert those pins into dollars
05:21to the big cluster luck game board.
