00:21Hi, everybody,

00:42Nice, huh?
00:43Okay, Stacey has our players,
00:44and she'll introduce them.
00:45Right.
00:46Thank you, Chuck.
00:47On our yellow team of champions,
00:48we have great friends who love sports.
00:51Hi, I'm Jill,
00:52and I'm in the real estate industry.
00:54Hi, I'm Shannon,
00:55and I'm an ad sales assistant in Irvine.
00:57And on our red team of champions,
00:59we have great friends,
01:00and they love reality TV.
01:02Hi, I'm Ben,
01:03and I'm a hotel night auditor.
01:05I'm Josh,
01:06I'm a soundboard operator
01:07and a production assistant.
01:08Great to have you all with us today.
01:09Good luck to you in this quarter final match.
01:11Here's how we play Lingo.
01:12The team in control gets up to five chances
01:14to guess a mystery word.
01:15We start with the first letter of that word.
01:17Players take turns making guesses,
01:19and our board will indicate
01:20if the letter is correct
01:21and if it's in the right place.
01:22Correct answer is worth 25 points.
01:25But if at any time you give us a word
01:27that doesn't fit, isn't a real word,
01:28or you take too long,
01:29our judge, Stacy,
01:30who looks anything but basic in black,
01:32will let us know,
01:33and control passes it on to our next team,
01:35and they have a chance to win those points.
01:37Now, the team with the correct guess
01:38then gets to draw two Lingo balls
01:40with corresponding numbers
01:41to their own Lingo board.
01:42All you have to do,
01:43try to complete a row of numbers,
01:45either five across, up and down,
01:46or diagonally.
01:48Each Lingo is worth 50 points,
01:50a free letter during Bonus Lingo.
01:51That's how you play the game,
01:53Jill and Shannon,

16:23Boy.
16:24Ben and Josh, you're gonna be moving into our Tournament of Champions.
16:27When we come back, we're gonna see if these guys can take home all the cash and prizes.
16:30And today's lingo, that's Bonus Lingo, right after this.
16:42Welcome back.
16:43Bonus Lingo, that's where we are.
16:44Ben and Josh did a great job getting here.
16:46You guys have done very, very well.
16:47You're the first ones to get ten right, I think, in the show.
16:50You know, by the way, if you win this Tournament of Champions, you know what you get?
16:54Suzuki Verona.
16:55Suzuki Verona, yeah, each one of you.
16:56So, it's gonna be good.
16:57Okay, you're gonna face the winners of our next show in the semifinals,
17:00but you still have a chance to play Bonus Lingo and win all the cash and prizes in this segment.
17:04So, I'm gonna give you two minutes to guess as many five-letter words as you can.
17:07You'll have up to five guesses for each word.
17:09For every one you get right, you're gonna have a lingo ball,
17:11which you'll use to try to complete your Bonus Lingo card
17:13in order to win that $5,000 and that Harrah's Vacation Package.
17:16Stacey's gonna tell you how many bonus letters you have.
17:18You have two bonus letters.
17:19One for the lingo you got during the game and one for winning the game.
