Alright, Captain, you have $1,000,000. Do you want to keep it, or go on? Let me remind you that you still have a freebie.

Lewis Chiu: We're going on!

Ok, we're going for $2,500,000!

(terminator sound plays)

Alright, that's the sound of the terminator! The terminator gives one player a chance to eliminate another player and take his or her money by challenging them to a one question showdown, or they can keep the team the way it is. But, to sweeten the pot, I'm going to give the challenger $25,000 to play the challenge, whether they win or lose. I'm going to activate the terminator now.

(terminator light bounces around between the players)

CAPTAIN - Lewis Chiu
POSITION 1 - Aaron
POSITION 2 - Dave
*POSITION 3 - Eddie*
POSITION 4 - Philip Stanley

Eddie, the terminator has chosen you! Is there anyone you would like to challenge? I will give you $25,000, win or lose.
Eddie: I think that it's free money, and I'll give it a shot. I have randomly picked Dave.

Alright, he's challenging Dave! Eddie and Dave, it's time for the terminator. I'm going to ask a qustion with a numerical answer. The closest to the correct answer WITHOUT GOING OVER will win the showdown. If you both go over, the closest will win. If you each give me the same answer, then I'll have to ask a new question. The winner of the showdown will play for $1,000,000 and the loser will be out of the game. Good luck to both of you, and here is the question:

To the nearest thousandth, what is the atomic mass of Neptunium?

Alright, the decisions are in. So, what did our contestants say?

The challenger Eddie: Well calling on my eroding knowledge about the periodic table, I believe that Neptunium is a later element, about 80 or 90 on the table, and that would put the weight about 225 I believe.
The challenged Dave: 235

Alright, there are two different responses. That means we will have a winner on this question. What was the correct answer?

To the nearest thousandth, what is the atomic mass of Neptunium?
237.048

Dave, you are the closest without going over, so you take Eddie's share of the pot!

CAPTAIN - Lewis Chiu, playing for $500,000
POSITION 1 - Aaron, Playing for $500,000
POSITION 2 - Dave, Playing for $1,000,000
POSITION 3 - OUT with $25,000
POSITION 4 - Philip Stanley, Playing for $500,000

Alright, that is what everyone is playing for. Here, now, is your $2,500,000 question:

Which four have played the leading bad guy in the Lethal Weapon movies?

Jet Li
Danny Glover
Gary Busey
Stuart Wilson
Joss Ackland
Bruce Willis
Tim Curry

Now, the team still has a freebie. It is good to take away one answer from here onto the $10,000,000 question. Would you like to use it now, or save it for later?

You have until September 3rd at 8:00 PM ET to e-mail me your decision. Good luck!
