00:12Ha-ha-ha! Let's play!
00:15Oh, yeah.
00:17Oh, look. It's Tom Bergeron.
00:20Thank you, Dragon. So much better.
00:22Last time, she called me Tom Berringer.
00:24We'll be seeing more of you later.
00:27Oh, you better hope not.
00:28Well, actually, you guys better hope not.
00:30Welcome to our game of X's and O's.
00:32Get three in a row, you'll win the dough.
00:34Our dragon, as you probably know,
00:36is lurking in her lair, guarding her stash of cash
00:38that's just waiting to be won.
00:40Who is going to win it?
00:41I'm guessing one of these two people.
00:43Let's meet them.
00:44He works in international sales from Fluker, Louisiana.
00:47Meet Derek Mitchell.
00:50And she's a travel agent hailing from Washington, D.C.,
00:54with the appropriate wave of Queen Elizabeth.
00:57Meet Erica Pitts.
00:59Welcome to Tic-Tac-Toe.
01:01We're going to get to know you both a bit better
01:03a little later on.
01:04Let's get into gameplay right now, though.
01:06Here's how we play.
01:07It is Tic-Tac-Toe.
01:09It's easy.
01:10Correct answers are worth $500.
01:12Our center box questions are special.
01:14They're worth double.
01:15Get three in a row, and you win an additional $1,000.
01:19Here are the categories you're going to be playing with
01:21in round one.
01:23Looking good.
01:24Broadway.
01:25Colors.
01:26Eighth grade math.
01:28The human body.
01:29Keep it clean.
01:30The voice.
01:31Famous last words.
01:33And in the center box, the special category,
01:35know it all.
01:37Whoever has the most money at the end of the game
01:39is the champion,
01:40and will have a date with our dreaded dragon
01:42as you play for over $100,000.
01:45Whoo!
01:47Yes, indeed.
01:48Now, Derek, you won the coin toss backstage, I was told,
01:51so you get the first pick.
01:53You know, I think I'm a snappy dresser.
01:55Looking good, please.
01:56Looking good.
01:57All right, let's take a look at that one.
01:58Up in the top left, what innovation
02:01did Sarah Blakely contribute to the fashion world
02:03that made her a billionaire?
02:05Was it Spanx or stilettos?
02:08I'm gonna guess on my first one.
02:10Spanx.
02:11Damn, I wore these stilettos for nothing.
02:13That's right.
02:14Spanx it is.
02:16X gets the box.
02:18Now, to keep you on your toes,
02:19we're gonna give the categories a shuffle
02:21after every question.
02:23All right, and Erica, over to you.
02:25I know my colors, Tom.
02:26I'm gonna go with colors.
02:27All right, colors it is.
02:29What gets painted with a color known as
02:31international orange?
02:33Home Depot stores or the Golden Gate Bridge?
02:37You know, that bridge is the International Gateway.
02:40I'm gonna go with the Golden Gate Bridge.
02:42Nicely strategized.
02:43That's right, the Golden Gate Bridge.
02:44We put an O in the box.
02:47All right.
02:48You each got one up there.
02:51Back to you, Derek.
02:52You know, I appreciate a clean house.
02:53Keep it clean.
02:54Okay, keep it clean.
02:56Which of these is not the latest superhero
02:59but rather a cleaning product from Libman?
03:02Is it the Super Broom or the Wonder Mop?
03:06Oh, man.
03:07It's gotta be Super Broom.
03:09Oh, no, it doesn't really.
03:10It's the Wonder Mop.
03:12Yeah, Libman manufactures the Wonder Mop,
03:15which now I've learned something.
03:17Okay, shuffle those categories again if we can.
03:20And, Erica, which box would you like?
03:22A human body.
03:23A human body.
03:25All righty.
03:26Approximately how many times a day does your heart beat?
03:30About 40,000 or about 100,000?
03:34You know, 100,000 sounds like too much.
03:37I'm gonna guess 40.
03:39No, it's about 100,000.
03:41Yeah, yeah.
03:42Unless you're our dragon, in which case,
03:44by this time of day, it's nine.
03:46Derek, we're gonna shuffle.
03:50And turn to you.
03:51I like show tunes.
03:52Let's do Broadway.
03:53All right, Broadway.
03:54Good enough.
03:55Here's a question from my buddy over at Access Hollywood,
03:58the dimpled host himself, Mr. Mario Lopez.
04:02Now, in 2009, I made my Broadway debut
04:06appearing as the beloved character Zack
04:08in what long-running hit musical?
04:10Cats or a chorus line, Derek?
04:13I think all the cats in Cats have silly names.
04:16I think it's a chorus line.
04:18Well, good for you.
04:19Yes, it is a chorus line.
04:20Excellent.
04:21Goes on the board yet again.
04:24A little shuffle.
04:26What do you think, Erica?
04:27I love the voice, so for the block, I have to go.
04:29Well, yeah, whether you loved it or not,
04:31it's a good choice for the block.
04:34Who's delighted us as the voice of Donkey
04:37in all the Shrek movies?
04:38Is it Eddie Murphy or Chris Rock?
04:41I love those movies.
04:43It's Eddie Murphy.
04:44Well, let's take a look, find out if you're right.
04:46Shrek and Donkey, two stalwart friends
04:48off on a whirlwind big city adventure.
04:50I love it.
04:51So good, so good.
04:52Eddie Murphy, indeed.
04:53We toss that.
04:54Oh, on the board, you got yourself a block.
04:56And, Derek, where are you heading next after the shuffle?
04:59Tom, it has to be know-it-all for the block.
05:01Yeah, I thought it might be.
05:02All right.
05:03Now, I'm going to ask five questions
05:05all pertaining to the same topic.
05:07If you are a know-it-all,
05:09and you can answer all five correctly,
05:11you're going to capture the box and the $1,000.
05:13But if at any point you give me an incorrect answer,
05:16then Erica can swoop in and steal
05:18with the correct answer to claim the box.
05:20Your know-it-all topic is fast food.
05:23Now, because you chose the box,
05:25would you like to play first or pass?
05:27Ah, you know, Tom, I think I'm going to pass.
05:31Good luck, Erica.
05:32You didn't really mean that, though, did you?
05:34Erica, you must answer five questions in a row.
05:39Are you ready?
05:40Absolutely.
05:41All right, I'm going to name five fast food items.
05:45I need you to tell me
05:46at what restaurant you would find them, okay?
05:48Here's your first one.
05:49The Whopper.
05:51Burger King.
05:52That's right.
05:53Frosty.
05:55Wendy's.
05:56Yeah.
05:57Number three.
05:58Double beef and cheddar.
06:01Arby's.
06:02Yeah, that's right again.
06:04Okay.
06:05Italian VMT.
06:08That's Jimmy John's.
06:10No, it's not.
06:11No, no.
06:13I can't tell you at this point,
06:14because, Derek, if you can tell me
06:16where you find the Italian VMT,
06:18you win the box and the $1,000.
06:20But first, do you want to wish him luck?
06:23Good luck.
06:24Yeah, good luck.
06:25Okay.
06:26That felt more sincere than his.
06:27What do you think it is?
06:28The Italian VMT.
06:30Tom, the Italian VMT is Subway.
06:32It is indeed.
06:33You won the box.
06:34Congratulations, Derek.
06:36There you go.
06:37You got yourself a block.
06:38And shuffle them up.
06:42Back to you, Erica.
06:43Famous last words for the block.
06:45Famous last words for the block.
06:47What was the last line spoken
06:49in the final episode of the sitcom Cheers?
06:52Was it, quote,
06:53Sorry, we're closed.
06:54Or, quote,
06:55I love you, Diane.
06:57I love you, Diane.
06:59That was well done.
07:00Let's take a look.
07:01See if you're right.
07:03Sorry, we're closed.
07:07Sorry about that, Erica.
07:09But your performance was amazing.
07:12Yeah, that's Ted Danson
07:13delivering the final line of the series.
07:15All right, Derek,
07:16which category would you like after the shuffle?
07:19Tom, I think I'm gonna do Keep It Clean.
07:22That's what the producers tell me all the time.
07:25What brand of towels calls itself
07:27the quicker picker upper for Tic Tac Dough?
07:30Is it Brawny or Bounty?
07:33I just picked it up from the store yesterday.
07:35That's Bounty.
07:36You are correct, sir.
07:37And you just scored Tic Tac Dough.
07:40Yes!
07:41Nicely done.
07:42We add an additional $1,000 to your bank for that win.
07:45And looking at our scores right now,
07:47Erica, you've got $1,000.
07:49Derek's in the lead with $3,500.
07:51All that could change, though.
07:53There's more Tic Tac Dough when we return.
07:59Is it hot in here?
08:01Or is it me?
08:03Oh, it is definitely me.
08:14Welcome back to Tic Tac Dough.
08:16Let's take a moment and get to know today's players.
08:18Erica Pitts is a travel agent from Washington, D.C.
08:21If you were to book a trip for yourself,
08:23travel agent Erica Pitts, where would you go?
08:26Well, last week, I went to Lake Tahoe,
08:28and it was beautiful, and I can't wait to go back.
08:30So I'm very excited about planning my next trip.
08:32All right, Lake Tahoe.
08:33And Derek Mitchell is from Fluker, Louisiana.
08:36Tell me a little bit, Derek, about Fluker, Louisiana.
08:40Sure.
08:41Tom, what we always say is the population of the cows
08:43is more than the people.
08:45And it was actually named after my great-great-grandfather,
08:48Amos Fluker Kent.
08:50Oh, that's cool.
08:51So it's family history, too.
08:52Family history.
08:53Very nice.
08:54Good to have you both here.
08:56You both ready for round two?
08:57Let's go.
08:58All right, in this round, all our dollar values are doubled,
09:01and Tic-Tac-Dough is now worth $2,000.
09:04Whoever has the most money at the end of the game
09:06is the champion,
09:07and you'll have a date with the dreaded dragon
09:09as you play for over $100,000.
09:12All right.
09:14Let's see the categories for round two.
09:18Movie shout-outs.
09:20Left or right.
09:22Sports legends.
09:24Harry Styles.
09:25Websites.
09:27Female firsts.
09:29Animals and books.
09:31Oops.
09:32And the list is our specialty category in the center box.
09:36Erica, because you lost the last round,
09:38the good news is you get to start this one.
09:40Choose a box.
09:41Left or right.
09:42Left or right.
09:44That's in the upper middle.
09:45So, in which hand is the Statue of Liberty
09:48holding her torch?
09:50Left or right?
09:53That's the right.
09:55All right, that's the flirty Statue of Liberty.
09:58We have a picture of Lady Liberty holding her torch
10:00in the right hand.
10:03All right.
10:04Just like that, you get another $1,000
10:06and an O on the board.
10:08Shuffle them up if you would.
10:10And back to you, King of Fluker.
10:13Harry Styles, Tom.
10:14Harry Styles.
10:15All right, good enough.
10:17When asked about wigs, who said, quote,
10:20I wear one just about every day,
10:21so I must have at least 365,
10:24was that Dolly Parton or RuPaul?
10:26Oh, man, they both wear great wigs.
10:28Yeah, they do.
10:29I think RuPaul.
10:30Well, no, it's actually Dolly Parton.
10:33365 different wigs at minimum.
10:36Wow.
10:37All right, shuffle them up if you would.
10:39And, Erica, back to you.
10:41Sports Legends.
10:42Sports Legends.
10:44All right, for this Sports Legends question,
10:46we have the host of NBC's College Bowl,
10:49happens to be a sports legend himself,
10:51Peyton Manning.
10:53I was the first quarterback to lead two different teams
10:55to Super Bowl victories.
10:56The first, the Indianapolis Colts.
10:58What team was the second?
11:00All right, is the answer Denver Broncos?
11:04Denver Broncos.
11:05Okay, yeah, you are right.
11:07Denver Broncos.
11:08Another Broncos on the board.
11:11And another shuffle.
11:14Now back to you, Derek.
11:16It has to be animals in books for the block.
11:19If you're playing smart, it has to be, absolutely.
11:21All right, for the block.
11:23What is the name of Harry Potter's pet owl?
11:26Is it Crookshanks or Hedwig?
11:29Oh, man, I don't know much about Harry Potter.
11:32I'm going to guess Crookshanks.
11:34You know, I read these first few books to my daughters
11:37and Hedwig.
11:39Hedwig, yeah.
11:40Erica, you've got quite the opening there.
11:46You just go wherever you want.
11:48Websites for the win.
11:50Yes.
11:51For tic-tac-doe, you just have to answer this question.
11:55Though it now boasts a universe of products,
11:57Amazon.com started off by selling what?
12:00Books or music?
12:02Oh, I think it's music.
12:06No, books.
12:07It was books.
12:08Amazon is the world's largest bookstore,
12:11as a matter of fact.
12:12That's a break for you, Derek.
12:14Will that top right box ever be claimed?
12:17And who's going to be the one to claim it?
12:19We'll find out from those answers and many more.
12:21Answers about the difficult things in life
12:23when we come back to Tic-Tac-Doe.
12:25Stay with us.
12:40We are back on Tic-Tac-Doe,
12:42and that top right box has been eluding our players.
12:45Let's see what happens as Derek takes his turn.
12:48Let's shuffle them up first.
12:51All right, Derek, where to?
12:52Got to go with movie shout-outs.
12:54Movie shout-outs.
12:55All right.
12:56In The 40-Year-Old Virgin,
12:58which pop star's name did Steve Carell's character scream
13:02while he was being savagely waxed?
13:04Demi Lovato or Kelly Clarkson?
13:07Oh, man, that's the funny part of the movie.
13:08That's Kelly Clarkson.
13:09Well, let's take a look and see if you're right.
13:12Como se llama?
13:14No! Kelly Clarkson!
13:16Yeah.
13:18That's a block.
13:19That never gets old, either.
13:20All right, let's shuffle the categories again, please.
13:23And, Erica, your pick.
13:25Female first.
13:26Female first.
13:27All right, fair enough.
13:28In 1987, who was the first woman
13:31inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame,
13:34Tina Turner or Aretha Franklin?
13:36Re-re-re-respect?
13:39The queen herself, Tom.
13:41Queen Aretha Franklin.
13:43Even if you were wrong, I'd give it to you.
13:45Aretha Franklin, yes, that's right.
13:47Re-re-re-respect?
13:49Just a little bit.
13:51Hey, baby!
13:52Wow, not bad at all.
13:53All right, let's shuffle the categories.
13:56Derek?
13:57Tom, a block again.
13:59Got to go for sports legends.
14:01All right, sports legends.
14:03What five-time Olympic medalist
14:05is also the world championship's most decorated gymnast?
14:08Is it Gabby Douglas or Simone Biles?
14:11Tom, that has to be Simone Biles.
14:12You are correct, sir.
14:14Another X goes on the board for you.
14:17And another reshuffle.
14:20Erica, your turn.
14:22I'm going to have to go with movie shout-outs.
14:24Movie shout-outs.
14:25All right, fair enough.
14:26In the first Rocky movie,
14:28where is Rocky when he famously shouts,
14:31Adrian, at the top of the steps
14:34or in a boxing ring?
14:36In that boxing ring, Tom.
14:39I'm loving your acting these out.
14:42Let's take a look.
14:46He was in the boxing ring.
14:48And by the way, he didn't do it as well as you.
14:51All right, let's shuffle the categories again.
14:55All right, Derek.
14:56Tom, I got a blocker.
14:57The list.
14:58All right, the list.
15:00Dead center for the block.
15:01Now, here's how this is going to work.
15:03It could yield a tic-tac-doe for either of you.
15:06I have a list of answers that are ranked from number 10
15:09all the way up to number 1.
15:10Your goal is to give me that highest-ranking answer.
15:14The topic is the list of baby names.
15:17Now, Derek, you get to choose
15:19whether you go first or pass it off to Erica.
15:21Tom, I'm going to go first this time.
15:23All right, here's the question.
15:25Now, according to the most recent data
15:26from the Social Security Administration,
15:28what are the 10 most popular female baby names?
15:32So, Derek, give me a name that's in the top 10.
15:36You know, my wife and I, we're looking at names,
15:38and we see Isabella a lot.
15:41Yeah, Isabella is popular,
15:43but it comes in at number 7, which means, Erica,
15:47six names are going to top Derek's answer,
15:50winning you the box and tic-tac-doe.
15:52What's your guess?
15:53I've got three friends with kids named Olivia.
15:57I have to say Olivia.
15:59Number 1.
16:01Olivia is the number 1 answer.
16:03You won the box.
16:04You scored tic-tac-doe.
16:06That is the end of our game.
16:08Erica is our new champion with $9,000.
16:11Congratulations.
16:12Derek, you're not going to go home empty-handed.
16:15You'll be leaving us with $2,000 as a consolation prize
16:18and our thanks for being on tic-tac-doe.
16:20Good luck.
16:21Say hi to everybody in Fluker for me, will you?
16:24All right.
16:25When we come back, Erica will have the chance
16:27to win over $100,000.
16:29I wish she would cheer up as she attempts to beat the dragon.
16:33The fastest and fiercest minute on television is next.
16:36Stay right there.
16:40I'll be waiting for you.
16:50Welcome back to tic-tac-doe.
16:52Erica, as you're aware, you've already won $9,000.
16:55That is yours to keep.
16:56But now you have a chance to win more,
16:58potentially a lot more, maybe even $100,000 more.
17:02But to do that, you have to beat the dragon.
17:07Release the dragon.
17:15All right.
17:16Erica lurking behind one of those boxes
17:18is the dragon in all of her fiery fury.
17:21If you find her, you'll literally have to beat her
17:23at her own game by correctly answering
17:25one make-or-break question.
17:27If you're right, the game continues.
17:29If you're wrong, game over.
17:30Now, you're gonna have 60 seconds to score a tic-tac-doe
17:34by answering questions in these nine categories.
17:37Let's take a look.
17:53Each question is worth a different amount of money,
17:55anywhere from $5,000 all the way up to $25,000.
17:59You get a question right, we put up an X,
18:01you bank that cash.
18:02Get a question wrong, that box is out of play.
18:05The dragon is ready. Are you?
18:07Yes.
18:08All right, let's put 60 seconds on the clock for Erica.
18:11Good luck. Your time starts now.
18:13Fruits and vegetables.
18:14Fruits and vegetables for $10,000.
18:17The phrase, world's finest apples,
