01:08He is our current champion on Tic-Tac-Toe.
01:10And to date, he's won $16,500 in cash and merchandise.
01:15This is the gentleman, if you'll remember, who knocked off our big $300,000-plus winner
01:20on the show, Tom McKee, our famous pilot from the Navy.
01:24Eric, how do you feel about this?
01:25You having fun?
01:25Yes, I'm having a very good time.
01:27Are you ready to try to beat our dragon?
01:28Sure enough.
01:28Because we didn't have time to do this at the end of the last show.
01:31We ran out of time.
01:31So come on over.
01:32Let's slay the dragon.
01:33Here we go.
01:39$17,400 so far.
01:42Behind these numbers are various amounts of money, a Tic-Tac and the ever-present dragon.
01:47Reach $1,000 or more, get the Tic-Tac, and you'll win a very nice prize package.
01:52Now, Eric, if you believe in business before pleasure, then you'll like the gifts in this
01:56next package, I'm sure.
01:57They're designed to, well, to make your business more of a pleasure.
02:01Jay?

02:05handsome brass desk.

02:33limousine service.
02:35Limousine service provided by A Limousine Service of Southern California, where one call does
02:40it all and see your air.

03:03And Eric, we mean business with this package, which is worth, in cash and prizes, over $3,600.
03:13Avoid the dragon or you lose everything.
03:15Get the ticket in the chat, you automatically get the dough.
03:17So let's shuffle them around, cover them up, and move out to the audience.
03:20You still have, for the show today, quite a contingent there in the first row.
03:24That's right.
03:25I've got them all.
03:26And your sister is holding up one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
03:29Did I count right?
03:30Uh, that's my count.
03:31I suppose I'll have to go with it.
03:32I don't trust her after the last one she gave me.
03:34She kind of goofed you up the last time.
03:35Found the dragon too soon.
03:36I'm taking it out of her hide.
03:38That's all right.
03:39All right.
03:39This is sister.
03:40He can say that.
03:41Number eight?
03:41Yes.
03:41Here we go.
03:42What's behind number eight?
03:43Bottom center on the board.
03:44Good for Tick.
03:45Add it to tap and you know what that means.
03:48Who is that man there holding up?
03:49That's my father.
03:51What does he say?
03:51He says six.
03:53I'll try six.
03:54All right.
03:55Dad's going to go with number six.
03:56What do we have behind six for Eric?
03:59$300.
04:00Dad knows what he's doing.
04:03All right.
04:03What do we got over there?
04:04Got a lot of people holding up numbers.
04:05Number three.
04:07Number three.
04:08Number three.
04:09Above the 300.
04:10Maybe another three.
04:11Maybe a five.
04:12250.
04:13I didn't miss my nuts.
04:14550.
04:15So you need 450 at Tick.
04:17Number five.
04:17You can stop any time.
04:19Number five in the center.
04:20Good for $450 at Tick.
04:22Let's take a look.
04:23150.
04:24Getting closer.
04:25Odd's getting better.
04:27Number two.
04:28Little deuce.
04:29Number two.
04:30Roll those dice.
04:30What do we got behind number two?
04:32Need $300 or a Tick.
04:34Who said two?
04:35I don't know, but I'm going to get him.
04:38Whoever that guy was, I'm going to get him soon.
04:40That's right.
04:41Let's look at the rest of the numbers on the board.
04:42One, four, seven, and nine.
04:44Missed out on an awfully good prize package.
04:47By the way, let me give you your total,
04:49and then I want to tell you why you shouldn't be so down in the depths
04:51if that kind of puts the damper on the activities here.
04:54You have $17,400 in cash and prizes to now, right?
04:58That jive with your man?
05:00That's right.
05:00All right.
05:00It's a computer man.
05:01I have to be very careful with him.
05:03Beat your next opponent and win what?
05:05Oh, a new car.
05:06Right.
05:06Will he be able to do it?
05:07We'll find out when we come back.
05:20If Eric, as I mentioned, beats his next opponent,
05:23he's going to win something very special.
05:24It happens to a champion when they defeat five players.
05:27Tell them, Jay.
05:28For your driving pleasure, Eric, it's a brand new car.
05:36Oh, you know the stakes are high in this game.
05:38Let's meet that next opponent.
05:39Who is it, Jay Stewart?
05:40From Reno, Nevada, a beauty consultant
05:42whose interests include traveling and reading.
05:45Meet Lillian Bay.
05:53Played a little African dominoes in Reno before.
05:56What's it like to live in Reno, Lillian?
05:58Oh, it's such a lovely...
05:59It's a very small, lovely town.
06:01Of course, you know, we do have the casinos there.
06:04You certainly do.
06:05Lillian, just between the two of us, okay?
06:07Won't tell anybody here or at home.
06:09Do you ever, ever indulge in a little wagering?
06:13I've got to admit, after church,
06:16I have a tendency to walk down,
06:19say a prayer to St. Jude,
06:20and walk over and do a little bit of the slot machines, yes.
06:24At least you're honest, right, Lillian?
06:26Why St. Jude?
06:27Well, he's the saint of the impossible.
06:31So, I figure he likes to hear from me,
06:34and I can use all the help I can get.
06:36Well, let's see if St. Jude can bring you a little luck
06:37here on Tic-Tac-Toe, Lillian.
06:39Eric, take a look at the board.
06:40These are the subjects for this game.
06:41We're playing with comedy movies,
06:43Georges, boxing, clothes styles,
06:46nicknames, United States cities, mixed words.
06:48There's that all-important secret category,
06:50and it could be any category at all.
06:51The correct answer there doubles the pot automatically.
06:53We also have colors to complete the subjects on the board.
06:56They're all ready for you, Eric.
06:57All you have to do is begin right now.
06:59Nicknames in the center, please.
07:00In the center box, worth $300 to the pot,
07:02a little harder, and for that reason,
07:03we give you a little extra time for your answer.
07:05Two of the world's greatest jazz musicians
07:07have well-known nicknames.
07:09I'll give you their nicknames,
07:10you give me their last names.
07:11Deal?
07:11All right.
07:12First, name the band leader who helped found bebop music
07:15and whose nickname is Dizzy.
07:18Secondly, name the jazz great whose nickname was Satchmo.
07:21Think about those.
07:31Nicknames of the world's great jazz musicians.
07:34Two of them.
07:34Name the band leader who helped found bebop music
07:36and whose nickname is Dizzy.
07:38Could I answer the second question first, please?
07:39Yes, you may.
07:40Name the jazz great whose nickname was Satchmo.
07:42That's Armstrong.
07:43Right.
07:43Louis Armstrong.
07:44Now, back to the number one.
07:46Band leader, helped found bebop music,
07:48name, at least nickname, Dizzy.
07:51Gillespie.
07:51Right.
07:52Good for the center box.
07:55So we put an extra $300 apart.
07:58Let's move the categories all around.
08:01Lillian's standing there thinking,
08:02aha, he's going to miss this.
08:04I think we'll go with colors.
08:06All right.
08:07Colors it is.
08:08In that category, this question for you, Lillian.
08:10This 1980 film stars Brooke Shields as a young girl
08:13who grows up on a deserted tropical island
08:15with only a young boy for company.
08:17According to the film's title,
08:18what color was the lagoon?
08:20Blue.
08:20Right.
08:21The color blue.
08:21Put an old man in that shuffle.
08:24Shuffle around.
08:24Put another $200 in the pot.
08:26That's $500, Eric.
08:29I'll try U.S. cities in the bottom, please.
08:32And here's the question.
08:33In 1962, the Century 21 Exposition
08:36was billed as this Pacific Northwest City's World's Fair.
08:40Name the city.
08:41Seattle.
08:42Right.
08:42Seattle, Washington.
08:43Great city of Seattle.
08:45Put an X there and shuffle again.
08:46Put another $200 in the pot.
08:48We'll move back to Miss Vey.
08:49Lillian, if you will, please.
08:50Wonderful.
08:51Favorite?
08:53Well, that's what's that right there.
08:55But we're going to go for boxing.
08:57Going to go for boxing.
08:57All right.
08:58If you answer the question on boxing,
09:00you'll have a block.
09:01You certainly will.
09:03My voice is changing.
09:04It'll get there sooner or later.
09:05Here's your question.
09:06Muhammad Ali first won the professional heavyweight championship
09:09in 1964 when he was still called Cassius Clay.
09:13He won the crown from a boxer he had nicknamed the Bear.
09:18To block Eric, name the fighter.
09:21Was that Walcott?
09:23No.
09:24Good guess, but not right.
09:25It was Sonny Liston.
09:26Sonny Liston was nicknamed the Bear by Cassius Clay.
09:30Still $700 in the pot.
09:31Let's shuffle again.
09:32Get back to Eric.
09:34For which subject, Eric?
09:37I'll try the secret category, please.
09:40The secret category in this case is national parks.
09:43Answer this question correctly,
09:45and the pot will double to $1,400.
09:48Eric, this national park,
09:50which lies in Wyoming and two other states,
09:53is the largest and oldest national park in the United States.
09:57For a pot of $1,400, at least to make it that, name it.
10:01Yellowstone.
10:01Right.
10:03Pop doubles.
10:04X goes in the secret category box,
10:06and we shuffle them around and move back to Lillian.
10:12I think I'll go for a block with U.S. cities.
10:16All right, a block across the board.
10:17You'll have it with this correct answer.
10:19The names of many cities in this southern state
10:22are synonymous with the tobacco industry.
10:24These cities include Durham, Raleigh, and Winston-Salem.
10:27For a block, name the state.
10:29North Carolina.
10:30Right.
10:31Durham, Raleigh, Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
10:33Put an O there and let's shuffle.
10:34Four boxes left.
10:36$1,600 in the pot, Eric.
10:38I'll go with colors to win, please.
10:40Vertically for a win.
10:42Top center.
10:43Answer this on colors.
10:44You will win $1,800 in cash.
10:47You would win a brand new automobile and your grand total in winnings, cash, and prizes combined
10:54would come to $24,600.
10:58Eric, for tic-tac-toe and all of that, answer this.
11:02This popular tourist region of southwestern Germany gets its colorful name from its many dark trees.
11:09It's famous for its ancient legends and cuckoo clocks.
11:13For a total of $24,600, name it.
11:17The Black Forest.
11:18Right for tic-tac-toe.
11:41I don't know when I walked out here.
11:43I thought they were giving that great, great, spontaneous applause.
11:46Strictly spontaneous for me, but they do it for everybody.
11:49Hey, Eric.
11:50Sounds like you brought your whole family.
11:52Yeah, it does.
11:52They aren't all yours, but they sound like it.
11:54Congratulations.
11:56$24,600 in cash and merchandise.
11:58Does a car mean very much to you?
12:00Are you walking?
12:00If you saw my car, you'd know how much it meant.
12:04Maybe, perhaps.
12:04You stay around long enough.
12:05Bring us a picture.
12:06We'll show it.
12:07All right?
12:07Okay.
12:07I'll bring you the pieces.
12:09Congratulations to you.
12:11Lillian, we just should have stayed away from a category called boxing.
12:14Yes, I'm afraid so.
12:15Have you ever been to a boxing match?
12:17Never in my life.
12:19Yeah.
12:19Well, perhaps you needed somebody up there to help you a little bit.
12:22Well, I'm going to get very upset with St. Jude.
12:24I'll tell you that right now.
12:25I started to say that, and I said, no, I'll just let Lillian say that.
12:28Thank you, Lillian.
12:29However, we do have a couple of nice prizes for you as you leave us.
12:32And a thanks to Lillian Bay for being with us on Tic-Tac-Doe, ladies and gentlemen.
12:36We'll be back for our bonus game in just a moment.
12:49Thank you very much.
12:49Thank you, Jay.
12:50I was just wondering, Eric, I'm not sure we cleared this up.
12:54Where were you born?
12:55I was born in Sweden.
12:57Is your whole family Swedish?
12:58Oh, yes.
12:59Yeah.
13:00And most of them are with us here in the studio, aren't they?
13:02Yeah, it seems that way.
13:03Quite a few of them anyway.
13:04They're going to root you on to victory over the mean old dragon now.
13:07Come on over here and let's get started.
13:14Yeah, really.
13:16Eric said he's getting to know his spot especially well, and it's pleasing to be back.
13:21It is.
13:21It's glad to be back.
13:22Now, the dragon's going to be jumping all over the board here, and while he's doing
13:25that, I just want to remind you that I'm sure you remember from the top of the show, you
13:30didn't win then, but perhaps this time you'll win a brass desk, typewriter, the limousine
13:33service would be nice, and computer, computer, cash and prizes.
13:37It comes to a total of over $3,600.
13:40So, we're going to just place this dragon who's jumping all over our big board up here
13:44in one position on the board.
13:46We don't know where it's going to be.
13:47We're going to cover him up with nine numbers, and you're going to start calling him out.
13:51Okay.
13:51You want to call him out yourself?
13:52I think I will this time, yes.
13:54Oh, trustworthy soul.
13:56Family, take it easy for a few minutes.
13:58Number two, please.
13:59Number two, little deuce, top center.
14:00What do we have?
14:01Little two, big number, hopefully.
14:03Tick.
14:04All right, we got a lucky two.
14:05Let's see if we can find either tack or some big bread up there without finding the monster.
14:10Number seven, please.
14:10Number seven, it is.
14:11Right down there in the left corner of the board.
14:13To go with tick, maybe tack.
14:15$100.
14:16You need $900 or you know what.
14:17Number nine, please.
14:19Number nine, right down here.
14:20A lot of people giving you advice.
14:21He's going to go with his own thoughts this time.
14:24Good for another $500.
14:25You need $400 or tack.
14:27Number five.
14:28Number five in the center of the board is good for what?
14:31Maybe $400?
14:33Yes, exactly.
14:43He says he'll take his limousine to go pick up his brass desk.
14:46I'll tell you something.
14:46That's probably one of the more expensive items in that particular cluster of prizes
14:51because a brass desk is not something you treat lightly.
14:54It's not something that comes cheaply.
14:56Well, congratulations.
14:57Let's see, where was the dragon?
14:58One, three, four, six, and eight.
14:59The dragon was behind numero three.
15:02Hey, you know, family of Eric, you just might not be needed anymore, but don't go away
15:07because you'd still like the applause and the yells, right?
15:09Right.
15:09Well, you're having cash and prizes now, thanks to your win here, all by your lonesome,
15:14of $28,200, including that automobile.
15:18Let's meet a new player, all right?
15:19Here we go.
15:21Jay Stewart, who has the audacity to try to beat this man this time?
15:26He's a regional development manager for a company which manufactures solar turbines.
15:31Meet Kevin Kinsella.
15:37Hi, Kevin.
15:38Hi, Wink.
15:39I got to ask you right off the top here.
15:41What is a solar turbine?
15:44Sounds like some kind of a sun hat or something.
15:46Well, actually, Wink, it's not powered by solar energy.
15:50They're powered by gas, natural gas, and there's nothing to do with solar energy.
15:54Yeah, what's your job with the company?
15:55I'm the manager of regional development, which basically means that I'm looking for business all over the...
16:00Everywhere.
16:01Yeah.
16:01Where is everywhere?
16:02Everywhere is really all over the world.
16:04Thanks to the jet age, I can be one day in the Middle East, one day in Europe, the next
16:09day in South America.
16:10Ah, the jet age.
16:11Don't we love it?
16:12We got breakfast in London.
16:13We have dinner in Los Angeles and luggage in Buenos Aires.
16:17Usually, it's the way that works out.
16:18And it's happened to all of us, Andrew.
16:22Recently happened to us.
16:23Okay, let's look at the board.
16:24Kevin and Eric, here we go.
16:26The subjects for the game are women writers, male singers, finish the list, world capitals, Disney, potluck pictures, famous blondes,
16:33chemistry, and automobiles.
16:34Eric?
16:35Disney in the center, please.
16:36Center box.
16:37He always starts with that center box.
16:39Eric, here we go.
16:39In the Disney feature of the Song of the South, two animals attempt to catch a burr rabbit, but are
16:45outwitted.
16:46I want you to name both of these burr characters, or brer characters.
16:50Here's your extra time.
17:01Talking about the Disney feature of the Song of the South, two animals attempt to catch a burr rabbit, but
17:05are outwitted.
17:05I want you to name both of these characters.
17:07One of them's the fox.
17:08Yes.
17:10The other is the weasel.
17:12No, the bear.
17:13Brer bear and brer fox.
17:15I talk myself about it.
17:16So, the center box still up for grabs.
17:18Let's see what happens as we forge a hidden shuffling categories.
17:21Kevin?
17:23I'll go for world capitals in the center, Wink.
17:25Might not be a bad choice for a man who's done as much traveling as you.
17:28Worth $300 to the pot.
17:29Here is the question.
17:31This city is only the eighth largest city in Canada, but it still serves as the nation's capital.
17:36First, name the city.
17:38Secondly, name the province in which it's located.
17:40I'll give you a few seconds to think about that.
17:51This city is only the eighth largest city in Canada, but still serves as the nation's capital.
17:56Name the city.
17:57That would be Ottawa.
17:58Ottawa's right.
17:59Name the province in which it's located.
18:01Ottawa as well.
18:02Ottawa?
18:03No.
18:03Ontario.
18:04Ontario is where it's located.
18:06So, we're all even.
18:07Eric missed.
18:07Kevin missed.
18:08Let's see if somebody can get one right now as we shuffle and get back to our current champion.
18:11Eric?
18:12What's your pleasure this time?
18:15Well, I'll try it anyway.
18:17Women writers in the center.
18:18All right.
18:18Here's your question.
18:19I'll name some best-selling books by popular women writers, and you name these authors.
18:24One, Valley of the Dolls and Once is Not Enough.
18:27Secondly, Scruples and Princess Daisy.
18:30Here's your thinking time.
18:41Best-selling books by popular women writers, our subject.
18:44You name the authors.
18:45Valley of the Dolls and Once is Not Enough.
18:47Jacqueline Suzanne.
18:48Correct.
18:48Scruples and Princess Daisy.
18:51Bouvier?
18:52No.
18:53Judith Krantz lives right here in Beverly Hills.
18:55Judith Krantz.
18:56So, again, three times for that center box, and we've all come up empty so far.
19:00Let's shuffle the categories again.
19:02Kevin Kinsella.
19:04Well, I'm going to try again on world capitals.
19:06I ought to...
19:07Again on world capitals.
19:08You missed the first time?
19:09Try it this time.
19:10South Africa is one of the few countries in the world with two capital cities.
19:14One is the administrative capital, and the other is the legislative capital.
19:18Name both these cities after you think.
19:39Pre-toria is one, Johannesburg is the other.
19:42No, Cape Town.
19:44Pre-toria, administration, and legislative capital, Cape Town.
19:48Four times on that center box, nothing yet, nothing on the board.
19:52We'll be back in just a moment.
20:01I am putting a watch on this current game, and I'm stopping it at this point.
20:05This may turn out to be the longest game of tic-tac-toe in history.
20:09Hey, don't feel two bets.
20:10It happened before.
20:11It'll happen again.
20:11Eric, current champion with 28 thou.
20:13We'll see you next time.
20:14Both of you.
20:15We'll continue the game.
20:15Bye-bye, everybody.
20:36Tic-tac-toe is a Jack Barry and Dan Enright production.
21:06We'll see you next time.
21:09Tic-tac-toe.
21:10Tic-tac-toe is a Jack Barry and Dan Enright.
21:11You
