Transcript 3/20/2015 - Sage Young

#1 Post by BBTranscriptTeam » Sun Mar 22, 2015 7:17 pm

Sage Young
Williamsburg, NY


Sage has been a fan of the show for 12 years and she's ready to let her inner geek fly. Her graduation speech was based on "strategies that would help you win on Millionaire that would help you win in life." Sage's +1 is her father, Edward.

Question #1: Featured at a 2014 toy fair, which of these is an actual talking stuffed animal that attempts to answer kids' questions by searching the internet?
A - eBayBear
B - VineBear
C - WikiBear
D - FlickrBear

Sage knows what all of the four reference.
Spoiler
Answer: C (WikiBear)
Value: $2,000
Bank: $2,000
Question #2: What lake located at the end of the Mojave River often dries up and leaves behind traces of sodium bicarbonate?
A - Epsom Salt Lake
B - Silica Lake
C - Soda Lake
D - Sugar Lake

Sage is pretty sure she knows what it is but she wants to ask the audience.
Spoiler
Ask the Audience results:
A - 38%
B - 28%
C - 28%
D - 6%
Those numbers aren't good enough so Sage jumps the question.
Spoiler
Answer: C (Soda Lake)
Value: $100 (jumped)
Bank: $2,000 (unchanged)
Question #3: What film was inspired by a 1976 New York Magazine article entitled, "Tribal Rites of the New Saturday Night"?
A - "Mr. Saturday Night"
B - "Saturday the 14th"
C - "Saturday Night Fever"
D - "Uptown Saturday Night"

Sage says that
Spoiler
"Mr. Saturday Night" isn't about rituals or even about New York. She doesn't know what "Saturday the 14th" is about or "Uptown Saturday Night"
. She does know about
Spoiler
"Saturday Night Fever"
.
Spoiler
Answer: C ("Saturday Night Fever")
Value: $1,000
Bank: $3,000
Question #4: According to biographer Wil Haygood, fearing a backlash, what entertainer lied about his mother's Cuban heritage, claiming instead she was Puerto Rican?
A - Martin Sheen
B - Richie Valens
C - Andy Garcia
D - Sammy Davis, Jr.

Sage says it's between 2 for her so she'd like to bring down her father. Edward thinks that
Spoiler
Martin Sheen is Irish and Spanish while Richie Valens was Mexican. He doesn't think it's Sammy Davis, Jr., either. Andy Garcia is known as Cuban now but may have lied earlier in his career
.
Spoiler
Answer: D (Sammy Davis, Jr.)
Value: unrevealed
Bank: $1,000 (consolation prize)

Q4: I've read enough interviews w/ Sheen to be pretty sure his Spanish heritage is not Cuban.

Know Valens, popularizer of famous Mexican wedding song La Bomba is not Cuban. Duno who Andy Garcia is. Sorry. Have read that Sammy Davis's mom was a show business mom who essentially deserted her family for her career. Wherever I read that didn't say anything about her being Cuban.

La Bamba is a folk song which often gets played at weddings. There is nothing in it to make it specifically a wedding song. Ritchie Valens was the first to put it to a rock n' roll beat, but the version done by Los Lobos for the "La Bamba" movie soundtrack is the one that made it a #1 hit.

No idea. Will the audience? I don't think so, so I JTQ.

I saw this episode.

She was very perky-just what the APs want in a contestant.

Her stack:

1. easy. Every future game show contestant needs a WikiBear.

2. easy. Sodium bicarbonate is a fancy name for baking soda.

3. easy. I'm old enough to remember when this movie came out-back when disco was all the rage.

4. JTQ. Didn't think it was Sammy Davis Jr-the one without a Hispanic sounding last name.
I'm just a game show nerd.
