06:50It's been sitting around for a while now and it's time for me to pay her back.
06:54You finally get to pay her back with that trip to Australia.
06:56And it can be a pretty fancy one right now, Peter, with the money.
06:58You know, we're actually pretty laid back people in that regard.

18:32I love you, Liam. I haven't seen it, but I'm sure it's great.
18:35What did you risk, Kayleigh?
18:37You lose everything but a dollar, left with a buck.
18:40Alejandro Sobovaro was in second place with $15,600.
18:44What show did Alejandro write down?
18:46What is Ballers? I'm afraid not.
18:49He wagered big as well, $15,599.
18:52He will also be left with a dollar.
18:54Peter McFerrin's $24,800 looking pretty good at the moment.
18:57Will he add to it?
18:59What is Veep?
19:00That is correct.
19:01Albin Barkley was Truman's vice president,
19:03and his grandson called him Veep.
19:05A little baby talk, I guess.
19:06What did you wager?
19:07$6,401 takes you to $31,201 today.
19:11And now a six-game total.
19:12A very impressive $147,399 American.
