(Alex: And, David, before I ask you to make your wager, I have some bad news for Karthik. Our judges have listened to, uh, the tape of your response a few moments ago, and you forgot to put the "D" on the end of Jim Jeffords' name. So we are deducting $3,200 from you, leaving you with $4,400, and, David, the scores are correct. Make your wager based on those numbers.)
(David: $6,000.)
(Alex: Even?)
(David: Even.)
(Alex: Could have done $6,400, you know, and then if you were right,
you'd have $30,000.)
(David: But then we couldn't have this. [Motions back and forth between the two of them])
(Alex: Oh. [Laughter] Here--okay.)
