Things You'll Need
Instructions
Place the wives in an isolation area.
Read the husbands a statement designed to elicit details of their relationship with their wives, such as "A picture you shouldn't have taken." Each husband raises his hand; the first three to do so give a one- or two-word response, then elaborate by giving the story behind that response.
Establish contact with the wives in the isolation area. Ask the question to the wives, giving one of the husband's responses, randomly chosen.
Have the wives buzz in with their interpretation of the response. If the correct wife buzzes in first, and her story matches her husband's, add 25 points to the couple's original stake of 100. If her story doesn't match, deduct 10 points from the couple. If the wrong wife buzzes in, deduct 10 points from her team and the team whose clue was read. Give the remaining responses, having the wives buzz in and scoring as above.
Repeat Steps 2 through 4, then have the wives and husbands change places. Repeat Steps 2 through 4 twice more, this time reading the question to the wives and having the husbands try to match stories.
End the game with a final question, this time taking a response from only the first wife to raise her hand and having the husbands try to match it.
Award a prize for the team with the highest score and lesser prizes to the remaining teams. On the original show, the top prize was $250 and a week's stay at a Holiday Inn for the couple in the audience the celebrities played for, while the runners-up received $100.
