Transcript

OPHIRA EISENBERG, HOST:

Now we're going to crown this week's grand champion, so let's bring back from Hey, I'm Walking Here, Kim Isaacks.

(APPLAUSE)

EISENBERG: From Egalitarian Nerd Maps - Sam Draisin.

(APPLAUSE)

EISENBERG: From This Land Is What Land? - Josh Sucher.

(APPLAUSE)

EISENBERG: Our puzzle guru, John Chaneski, will lead our Ask Me One More final round called Melted.

JOHN CHANESKI, BYLINE: The name of this game is Melted because melted is the opposite of frozen. I'll give you the opposite of a well-known movie title and your job is to give me the real title. So if I said the angel wears Payless, you'd say "The Devil Wears Prada." We're playing this spelling bee-style, so one wrong answer and you're out. You'll only have a few seconds to give us an answer. Last person standing is our ASK ME ANOTHER grand winner. And your prize - They Might Be Giants will provide you with a free subscription to their brand-new Dial-A-Song direct service. New music all year long - you are welcome.
