00:00From Hollywood, it's everybody's game of strategy, knowledge, and fun.
00:06It's Tic-Tac-Doe.
00:09And now, here's our host, Jim Caldwell.
00:17Thank you very much.
00:20Oh, boy. Thank you.
00:22Nice to have you here in the studio, audience, and welcome to another edition of Tic-Tac-Doe.
00:25Our current champion is a great player.
00:27He won a brand-new car on our last show, and, well, he's just met his latest challenger,
00:33but they haven't started a game yet.
00:34Let's bring out our players. Charlie.
00:36Jim, our current champion, is a painter whose interests include juggling and doing impressions.
00:41His winnings total in cash and prizes, $24,000.
00:45Meet Flyer Brown.
00:48And his opponents recently graduated from college, and her interests include skiing and travel.
00:52Meet Laurie Bell.
00:57Good to have you back on the show today.
01:00Good to be back.
01:02You just graduated from college, right?
01:04Yes, last month from Cal State Fullerton.
01:06And you plan to go to graduate school?
01:07Maybe. I'm taking a little bit of time off right now working and maybe going on.
01:11Well, good luck.
01:12And good luck here as you start a brand-new game with a champion who's playing very well.
01:16Thank you, Jim.
01:16You've been hanging in there, I guess one might say.
01:18My little claws, yeah.
01:20What are you going to do with your winnings? Any plans?
01:21Well, I've always wanted to buy a house. Maybe this will give me a start or something.
01:28This might be one heck of a start. $24,000 is a great down payment.
01:33Good luck. Let's start again.
01:36Dwyer Brown and Laurie Bell.
01:38All right. Here we go. Nine categories.
01:42They are...
01:43Fads and Follies. Trivia Dare.
01:46Art. Comic strips.
01:48Royalty. It's a dilemma.
01:49Movies. Number, please.
01:51About words. Red boxes. Special categories.
01:54And let's get to it.
01:55Dwyer, where would you like to go first?
01:57I think I'll stick with my luck and take royalty in the center.
02:00All right, Dwyer. Two-part question. You'll have some extra time.
02:02When the Spanish conquistador Cortez first arrived in Mexico in 1519,
02:09this Indian emperor greeted the Spaniards with gifts.
02:12Two years later, however, Cortez and his men attacked.
02:16The emperor was killed and his empire destroyed.
02:20Number one, name that Indian emperor.
02:22And two, name the civilization he ruled.
02:26Here's your extra time.
02:36All right, Dwyer.
02:37When the Spanish conquistador Cortez first arrived in Mexico in 1519,
02:41this Indian emperor greeted the Spaniards with gifts.
02:44Two years later, however, Cortez and his men attacked.
02:47The emperor was killed and his empire destroyed.
02:50Number one, name that Indian emperor.
02:55Montevallo.
02:57Half there. Montezuma.
02:59And, of course, the civilization he ruled?
03:01The Aztecs.
03:02Can't give you the box.
03:03Let's shuffle.
03:06And, Lori, where would you like to go first?
03:08I'll take comic strips in the center, please.
03:09You want to try to get that center box, huh?
03:11Okay, you'll have some extra time here.
03:13Since it first appeared in 1951,
03:16Dennis the Menace had been one of the most popular comic strips in the world.
03:20I'll describe two characters from the strip.
03:22You name them.
03:23Number one, name the red-headed girl who's always annoying, Dennis.
03:27And also, name Dennis' dog who's terrified of cats.
03:31Here's your extra time.
03:32All right, Lori, since it first appeared in 1951,
03:43Dennis the Menace has been one of the most popular comic strips in the world.
03:47Number one, name the red-headed girl who's always annoying, Dennis.
03:51Margaret.
03:51Margaret is right.
03:52Number two, name Dennis' dog who's terrified of cats.
03:56Ruff.
03:57Ruff is right.
03:57You have the center box.
04:00Hello.
04:00That's under $300 pot.
04:02We're going to come back and continue after this.
04:04Stay with us.
04:05Dwyer Brown's the champion, and his challenger is Lori Bell.
04:13And they've just started a game.
04:14$300 in the pot.
04:15Let's shuffle.
04:18Dwyer, it's your turn.
04:20I'm going to go to movies in the bottom right, please.
04:23Dwyer, take a look at this picture.
04:26These were two of the stars of the hit 1986 release,
04:30Hannah and Her Sisters.
04:32Name one of the actors.
04:33Mia Farrow.
04:35Mia Farrow is one, and Woody Allen's the other.
04:37You have the box.
04:38Good to you, Dwyer.
04:40Very popular movie.
04:42Let's put an X on the board, bottom right-hand corner.
04:44$500 pot.
04:45Let's shuffle.
04:47Lori, what's next?
04:49I'll try comic strips again.
04:50All right, you had success last time.
04:52Here's the question.
04:53This popular comic strip details the day-to-day life of three young career women
04:57who share an apartment.
04:59Luann is a teacher, Tommy is a nurse, and Margot is a secretary.
05:03The strip is named after the apartment they share.
05:06What is their apartment number?
05:09202.
05:11Nope.
05:123G.
05:13Apartment 3G.
05:14Box remains unclaimed.
05:15Let's shuffle.
05:16$500 pot.
05:18Dwyer.
05:19I'll take comic strips on the right, please.
05:23All right, you get it this time.
05:24Here's the question.
05:24Since little orphan Annie made her first appearance in 1924,
05:28she has been accompanied on her adventures by her faithful dog.
05:32Name that dog.
05:33Sandy.
05:34That's right.
05:36Sandy's the dog.
05:37Keep getting on.
05:38Comic strips gets the next.
05:40$700 now in the pot.
05:42Let's shuffle.
05:45Lori.
05:46It's a dilemma to block.
05:48You're going for a block, Lori.
05:50Dwyer, if you get this box, you'll win your sixth game of Tic-Tac-Doh.
05:54Here's your opening clue, Lori.
05:56The plant from which this beverage is made originally grew wild only in Ethiopia
06:02and was made into food, wine, and medicine.
06:05We're looking for the name of that beverage.
06:08Now, here's your dilemma, Lori.
06:09I have five more clues here.
06:11You have to decide how many more clues you think are needed to answer the question,
06:15and then Dwyer will decide whether he answers it or you answer it.
06:19How many more clues?
06:20I'll take two.
06:21All right, two additional clues.
06:22Dwyer, do you want to answer this question with two more clues or have Lori answer it?
06:27Remember, a right answer from you, and you'll win the game.
06:31I'll answer it, Jim.
06:32All right, Dwyer.
06:33Here are your two additional clues.
06:35Number one, the average American consumes more than 10 pounds a year.
06:42Number two, a 17th century pope baptized this beverage,
06:46overruling priests who considered it an invention of the devil for the game,
06:52and a grand total now of $24,900.
06:56Name that beverage.
06:59Coca-Cola?
07:00No, coffee.
07:02Lori, you have a block.
07:05Dwyer, if I was to say that this beverage contains caffeine,
07:15what would Jim might have said coffee?
07:16I might have said coffee.
07:18How about that?
07:18I have to work on that.
07:19Good strategy, Lori.
07:20You handed it over to him, and you ended up with a box and a block.
07:23$900 pot.
07:24Let's shuffle.
07:27Dwyer, it's your turn.
07:28I think I'll have to take fads and follies for the block.
07:31Fads and follies it is.
07:33And for a block.
07:34During the late 1970s, Dwyer, this craze had highway drivers talking to total strangers,
07:40warning their good buddies about Smokey the Bear on their CB radios.
07:45For a block, what do the initials CB stand for?
07:53Compact breaker.
07:54No, citizens banned.
07:56That box remains unclaimed.
07:58Let's shuffle.
08:01Lori.
08:02Trivia dare for the win.
08:05All right, Lori.
08:05You'll become our new champion if you get the box.
08:08Dwyer, you won it for a block.
08:11Now, I'll read this question to you, Lori.
08:12Then you decide whether you'll answer it first or dare Dwyer to answer first.
08:17Listen carefully.
08:17This American president was capable of writing in Greek with his right hand while writing simultaneously in Latin with his left hand.
08:27Was he James Garfield, Thomas Jefferson, or Woodrow Wilson?
08:33What are you going to do, Lori?
08:34Answer or dare?
08:35I'm going to answer.
08:37You're going for the answer and you're going for the game.
08:40Was he James Garfield, Thomas Jefferson, or Woodrow Wilson?
08:45Wilson?
08:46No.
08:47Dwyer, you can still get a block.
08:50Was it James Garfield or Thomas Jefferson?
08:55I'll have to say Thomas Jefferson.
08:57No.
08:58James Garfield.
08:59The box is still unclaimed.
09:02$900 pot.
09:04But at this critical point, we're going to stop and come back and continue after this.
09:15Back to you, Jim.
09:16Thanks, Charlie.
09:17Dwyer and Lori are in the middle of a game.
09:18We have a $900 pot and let's shuffle those categories.
09:24All right, Dwyer.
09:25I'm going to have to go for fads and follies for the block again.
09:28Okay, Dwyer.
09:30In 1975, Gary Dahl was selling more than 100,000 of these items a day for $4 each.
09:39They came in a box with a leash even though they were inanimate objects.
09:42For the block, name that unusual fad pet.
09:46Pet rock?
09:46Pet rock is right.
09:49You have a block.
09:51Put an X on the board.
09:52$1,100 pot.
09:54Let's shuffle with four boxes remaining.
09:57Lori.
09:57Comet strips for the block, please.
10:00Okay, Lori, see if you can block Dwyer this time.
10:02This comic strip kingdom is ruled by a midget of a monarch
10:05and is populated with such characters as a drunken jester named Bung
10:09and a cowardly knight named Rodney.
10:12For a block, name that kingdom.
10:14The Wizard of Id?
10:15That's right, Id.
10:19That is right.
10:20Put an O on the board.
10:22For a block, $1,300 pot.
10:25Let's shuffle.
10:27All right, Dwyer.
10:28I'll have to go on top for art for the block.
10:31Okay, blocking back and forth.
10:32Here's another attempt.
10:34This artist named Alexander was one of the first American sculptors
10:37to win international fame.
10:39He is best known for his delicate mobiles,
10:42which may weigh thousands of pounds
10:44but can still be moved by just a breath of wind.
10:48For a block, give me that artist's last name.
10:50Johnson.
10:51No, Alexander Calder.
10:55Box remains unclaimed for now.
10:57Let's shuffle.
10:58$1,300 pot.
11:01Lori.
11:01About words for the win.
11:03All right, Lori.
11:04If you can answer this question,
11:07you will become our new champion.
11:09Now, listen carefully.
11:11This word, which describes the plan a family or business makes
11:16to keep track of their income and expenses,
11:19takes its name from the Latin for leather bag,
11:22in which merchants often carried their money for the game
11:28and a grand total of $1,500.
11:33What is that word?
11:35Budget?
11:35That's right.
11:36You win.
11:36Congratulations, Lori.
11:49What are you saying over there to each other?
11:51I need this money.
11:53Well, look, you just picked up lots of money.
11:56Vertical tic-tac-do, you just won $1,500 in cash.
12:00Congratulations, Lori.
12:07You'll have an opportunity to address your strategy
12:11when you take on the dragon in just one second.
12:13But first, hey, Dwyer, you're quite a champion.
12:17Believe that.
12:18Thank you very much.
12:19You've really been a lot of fun.
12:20Now, let me think.
12:21You principally paint pottery with some kind of stuff.
12:24A lot of peas involved, right?
12:25Yes, a lot of peas.
12:26Well, now you're going to be doing lots of things
12:28because not only have you picked up a car,
12:30I know a couple of trips, some terrific prizes, Dwyer.
12:32You leave us cash and prizes totaling an even $24,000.
12:38Best of luck to you, Dwyer.
12:40Good luck.
12:42All right.
12:42It's time for us to take a break
12:44and watch Lori in one moment.
12:46Stay with us.
12:50All right.
12:51Welcome back.
12:51You know, before I go any further,
12:52I want to mention one thing.
12:53This is the last show of the season,
12:55and during the upcoming weeks,

13:00and we'll be looking forward to that, I know.
13:01But first, we've got some business to do right now, right?
13:05Lori, you would like to come over and play the bonus game.
13:08I sure would.
13:08Come on over and face the dragon.
13:13It's the first time over here, isn't it?
13:14Yes, it is.
13:15Well, now you can kind of relax
13:16and kind of think about your strategy
13:18because the dragon's going to be hiding around here somewhere, isn't he?
13:21Yes.
13:21I'll remind you that behind these numbers are various amounts of money.
13:24There's a tick, there's a tack, and a good old dragon.
13:28I always call him the good old dragon.
13:29I guess he's a bad old dragon.
13:30Bad old dragon.
13:30Right?
13:31You want to get $1,000 or more or the tick and the tack,

15:52Let's see some numbers out there.
15:53What's coming up first?
