OPHIRA EISENBERG, HOST:
Now it's time to crown our big winner. Let's bring back our finalists Mary and Joey.
(APPLAUSE)
EISENBERG: Puzzle guru Art Chung, take it away.
ART CHUNG: Mary and Joey, your final round is called, You Do Know Jack. In this round, every correct answer will contain the name Jack. For example, if I said, a person who cuts down trees, you'd answer, he's a lumberjack and be OK. We're playing this round like a penalty shootout. You'll each get up to eight rapid-fire questions and we'll alternate back and forth 2. The contestant 3 who scores the most points will be our big winner. Your prize will be an ASK ME ANOTHER Rubik's Cube and a tote bag of power swag, including the first two seasons on DVD. We flipped 4 a coin backstage and Joey is going first. Joey - snack food in the song "Take Me Out To The Ballgame."
JOEY GUTMANN: Crackerjack.
CHUNG: Correct. Mary - a pumpkin 5 with holes cut in it to look like a face.
