00:01This is the Winner's Circle. This is where someone is guaranteed to win $100,000.
00:10From Television City in Hollywood, this is the $100,000 Pyramid.
00:17Today, our special guests are from the young and the reckless, Melody Thomas Scott.
00:23And from Police Academy 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, David Gratt.
00:28And now, here is your host, John Davidson.
00:37Hi, welcome to the $100,000 Pyramid. Welcome to Friday on the $100,000 Pyramid.
00:42If you're just tuning in, here's how the game goes.
00:44Everybody's trying to make it to the Winner's Circle.
00:46That's where you win. You play for $10,000 if you've won the first game.
00:49You play for a total of $25,000 if you've won both games.
00:53And if you're one of the three players to make it all the way to the top of the pyramid
00:55in the least amount of time,
00:56then you'll qualify for our $100,000 tournament.
00:59Today is the last day to qualify because on Monday, don't miss it, we start our first $100,000 tournament
01:06for this year.
01:08Melody, you've got to stand up and show us this outfit.
01:11Now, what does this mean?
01:12Well, this is the Save the Earth Foundation, which I am national spokesperson for.
01:17You know what, I've asked you to stand up, and that means that your mic doesn't work.
01:20So stand up and now sit down and talk about the outfit.
01:23Hi. I'm just new to show business.
01:26This is the Save the Earth Foundation, which I am national spokesperson for,
01:30and they raise money to donate to universities for environmental research.
01:36It's a wonderful cause, and in that outfit, I would support anything you wanted me to support.
01:41Oh, great. We'll talk to you later. We'll talk to your accountant.
01:43I hope you will.
01:44Yes, and your player in this round is Cheryl Booth.
01:47Cheryl, what do you do again? I forgot.
01:49I teach music lessons and also children's theater.
01:51Well, how come you're so darn good at this game?
01:54Well, I've practiced, practiced, practiced, John.
01:56I guess so. You've won $10,000.
01:58Today is your last time, though, last chance to qualify for the tournament.
02:02You're not yet qualified, and maybe you can.
02:04David Graff, we have to say goodbye to you as well today.
02:07Thanks for a great week.
02:08I've had so much fun, John.
02:10And you are a terrific, terrific host.
02:13Thank you very much.
02:13I never realized that you could be as funny as you are.
02:16Good idea.
02:17Thank you, Graff.
02:17All right. You're a partner.
02:19This game is Debbie Sterron, and you are qualified, Debbie, already.
02:23Not only have you won $10,000 trip to Maui, but what was your time?
02:27You already qualified with 34 seconds.
02:31So the time to beat for today, there is a 35 second.
02:33Got to beat 35.
02:35Let's get to the game.
02:36Let's look at our categories in game number one.
02:38I'd rather not putting on the Ritz, Gomer Pile, first and last, starting from scratch, where
02:43am I going, and hidden up there somewhere is a 7-Eleven worth $1,100.
02:48Let's get started.
02:49Melody, choose a category.
02:51Let's try first and last.
02:53First and last, things associated with a cracker.
02:57Remember, if you get an unacceptable...
02:58Oop, first and last.
03:01I picked the wrong card.
03:03Words that begin and end with the same letter.
03:06David just said how good I was at this, and I go and made a mistake.
03:09An unacceptable clue, and you'll hear the sound you just heard.
03:12Oh, another sound.
03:13We have sounds for everything.
03:17Words that begin and end with the same letter.
03:19That's what first and last is.
