00:14Thank you!
00:19Thank you very much. Hello, everybody, and welcome to Pyramid. We have two terrific contestants who are hoping to walk away with thousands of bucks in their pockets today.
00:27First of all, Tom Cosgrove is a flight attendant, playing with talk show host and actress, Ricky Lake.
00:36And we have Janice Teemer is a technical support manager, playing with Willie Garson from Sex and the City.
00:46You guys look ready. You look like you're ready to play some Pyramid, all right? Let's get started.
00:51The road to that winner's circle begins with this pyramid off to my right with the following six categories.
00:56They are...

01:01Help! I'm being circled by fins.

01:31The team with the most points goes to the winner's circle.
01:33Simple enough?
01:34Let's play.
01:35Tom, you won the coin toss backstage, so you get to go first.
01:37Which category would you like?
01:39I'll go for what's up, Doc.

07:58Thank you very much.
07:59Welcome back to Pyramid.
08:00Well, Tom, you're going for $10,000 here.
08:03This is your first time here, so it's $10,000.
08:05Next one will be worth $15,000 for the full $25,000.
08:08And, Ricky, you know what you're doing here?
08:09I'm nervous, yeah.

08:12Yeah, I...
08:13Can't talk with your hands.
08:14I won't.
08:15Here's another little tricky rule that I'll explain.
08:17If one of the categories has the word things in it, you can't use a prepositional phrase.
08:21For instance, I couldn't say the color on my suit.
08:25I could say my suit's color, but on my suit would be the prepositional phrase, okay?
08:30I got it.
08:30Okay.
08:31You ready?
08:31I'm ready.
08:32Tom, are you ready?
08:32Oh, yeah.

09:19Because that is not admissible in court.

09:27Because if that is not admissible in court...
09:31Um, pass.

10:03You definitely arranged that one.
10:06You didn't make it all the way up to the $10,000.

10:10I'm going to give you $900.
10:11Plus a chance to come back here to try for that $10,000.
10:15Oh, thank you.
10:15Okay.
10:16That was a great proof.
10:17My stare.
10:18My nose.
10:19That's good.
10:20So don't go away.
10:21Let's see if Tom can come back for that $10,000.
10:23Or Janice.
10:24Let's see if you can get up here for the $10,000.
