Jason’s Run to the Million
{{WWTBAM Question “Phone-a-Friend” lifeline used.
 * value = $250,000 (13 of 15) - Not Timed
 * question = What U.S. President said "My fellow Americans, our long national nightmare is over", in a speech upon assuming office?
 * a = Abraham Lincoln
 * b = Gerald Ford
 * c = John F. Kennedy
 * d = Bill Clinton
 * caption = Jason thinks the answer is Gerald Ford, but he decides to call his friend.

Colin is 90% sure that is B: Gerald Ford as well. Jason goes with him and wins $250,000. {{WWTBAM Question “50:50” and “Ask the Audience” lifelines used.
 * value = $500,000 (14 of 15) - Not Timed
 * question = According to his autobiography, what inspired young Harry Crosby's friends to call him "Bing"?
 * a = Dinner bell
 * b = Type of cherry
 * c = Comic strip
 * d = Style of hat
 * bstyle = 5050
 * dstyle = 5050
 * aata = 26|bata = 5|cata = 69|data = 1
 * caption = Jason has no idea, so he decides to use the 50:50, which leaves Dinner bell and Comic strip.

Jason is still not sure. “You know the music isn’t helping a damn thing either?” Regis has created some lyrics to the music.

“If you don’t know then you must go”.

Jason then decides to Ask the Audience, and most of them agree that is Comic strip, and Jason wants to meet the 4% who voted for B outside.

Jason doesn’t know the answer. Jason then looks at the camera saying he doesn’t know. “You can come closer if you want, I still won’t know the answer”. The camera predictably zooms in on him.

Jason is about to go for C: Comic strip, but one audience member moans. Jason then decides to walk with $250,000. He would have then guessed A: Dinner bell, but C: Comic strip was in fact the correct answer. }} {{S-start}} {{Succession box }} {{S-end}}
