"Belchic's going with the majority of his team," said Patch. "If peanut is there, you have stolen the money. If not, the Wells family will be on the board with some money. For the steal, we're looking for peanut. Our survey says..."
Ding! "Nut" appeared in the number six position with £4.
"You've stolen the money! And whether you deciced to go with either peanut or walnut, you would've stolen the money either way, because of one of the answers on the board being 'Nut'."
He turned to the Wells family.
"Sorry, Wells family. We couldn't take coconut for nut, since a coconut is not really a nut according to the judges."

Lizzie walked up to the podium. "Is it time for my face-off?" She asked.

"Not yet, Lizzie," said Patch. "There's still one answer we haven't revealed on the board yet. Our fifth most popular answer was..."
Ding! "Pea" appeared in the number five position with £5.
"Pea. The scores at the end of Single Money are the Wells family with no money..."
The audience let out an "Aww".
"And the Tower family in the lead with £234!"
The audience let out huge cheers.
"In a few minutes, we're gonna up the stakes and hopefully get the Wells family some money on the board. Join us after the break for Double Money and Big Money!"
The audience cheered and applauded as the theme music starts playing again, and then the scene changed back to the purple futuristic background, where the logo forms again. The theme music then ended, and the screen fades to black.
Minutes later, the screen fades back to the show's logo in the purple futuristic background, and the theme music and the audience's cheers and applause is heard again. The scene changes back to the set of the show. Once the theme music ended and the audience fell silent, Patch begins to speak.
"Welcome back to Family Fortunes!" said Patch. "We have a progressive jackpot, which, tonight, is at £10,000, and it's waiting to be won. Who will move on to Big Money for a chance to win tonight's jackpot. Will it be the Tower family, who swept all three rounds of Single Money with £234 in score money and £100 in bonus money? Or will it be the Wells family, who has nothing in either score money or bonus money? We're about to find out in a few minutes. Right now, we're gonna have Lizzie and Jocelyn at the center, and Lizzie couldn't wait to play, but the wait is finally over. Now, it's time for round one of Double Money!"
As the audience cheered and applauded again, Patch went behind the center podium, waiting for Jocelyn to come over for the fourth faceoff and shake hands with Lizzie, who is already waiting at the center podium, while the game screen this time displays the "Double Money" logo, which will happen again in each round hereafter until one of the families win the game.

Katrina whispered to Vlad, "I'm sorry I didn't get an exact answer. " Vladimir smiled and hugged her, insisting, "It's okay, dear. You did your best. " Jocelyn then walked up to the center podium, and extended her paw to Lizzie's for a friendly handshake.

"Lizzie, meet Jocelyn," said Patch. "Jocelyn, meet Lizzie."
He picks up a card from behind the center podium as the game screen displays five hidden answers.
"Double Money means that each answer is worth twice the prize they were before the break. So, whatever value is shown next to an answer on the board, it will be doubled and added to the bank. We have the top five answers on the board in this first Double Money round. We asked 100 people this question: Name a part of the body that moves a lot."

Lizzie buzzed in and answered: "The legs!"

"Lizzie is saying legs," said Patch. "Our survey says..."
Ding! "Legs" appeared in the number three position with £18.
"It's there. It's the third most popular answer. Jocelyn, can you find the top answer?"

Jocelyn then stated, without trying to sound over-confident, "The arms."

"Jocelyn is saying arms," said Patch. "Our survey says..."
With the spot prize sound and a white flash, "Arms" appeared in the number two position with £19.
"Well done! That's the second most popular answer, and an answer with a cash bonus, too! You and your family won a £100 bonus! Congratulations. Since your answer is more popular than Lizzie's answer, the option goes to you. Check with your family. Play or pass?"

Lupus insisted, "Your choice."
Katrina nervously tilted her hand side-to-side, meaning that she wasn't sure.
Vladimir shrugged, "What Lupus said."
Doc shrugged as well.
Jocelyn thought for a moment then stated, with a bit of reluctance, "We'll play."

"The Wells family is playing," said Patch. "Rejoin, no conferring."
He turned to the Tower family.
"Tower family, start conferring. There's £74 in the bank, which means you could win the game if you get a chance to steal later on."
He turned back to the Wells family and went over to Doc.
"All right, Doc. This is very important. If you and your family win this round, you stay in the game, and we'll play another round of Double Money. What other part of the body moves a lot?"

Doc smirked, then bent his head left then right, making a distinct, slight cracking, loosening a few muscles in his neck, as he finally answered, "The head, of course."

"Yeah, and you're moving it a lot yourself, right now," said Patch, and light laughter and applause came from the audience. "That means you are confident that it is there. Let's have a look."
Ding! "Head" appeared in the number five position with £10.
"It is there! Over to you, now, Vladimir."

Vladimir pondered for a moment until he guessed, "I believe hands/fingers."

The Tower family started huddling to discuss their answer for the steal.
