WINK: What does everybody want? AUDIENCE: "The Last Word"! JENNIFER: And now, ready to play the game where "The Last Word" is worth everything, our players: (insert two civilian contestants from city, state, and occupation, and their celebrity partners), and now, here are two big/good/great words to get us started: Wink Martindale!

Main Game
"Let's take a look at our first puzzle, players. Players, you're looking for three words. We never tell anything about them because all three words have something in common. This means getting anyone of them can lead them into the other two, and that's the whole idea of this game. Each word has a prize attached to it, but you have to come up with The Last Word to win the game and one of these prizes." - Wink Martindale (explaining how The Last Word is played)

"Win the game with all three words, and all three prizes will be yours. Win two out of three games, you'll get a chance at the 60-Second Challenge." - Wink Martindale

"Players, take your places/positions, and no help from the partners." - Wink Martindale (to start The Last Word)

"We always begin with the three letters and here they are... (Insert three letters from each row revealed)" - Wink Martindale (to reveal three letters in each row for each Round)

"Now, whenever you reveal the new letter, you're allowed to guess, which can be at risk. But, if you take a guess in any word, we'll begin typing it in. If you're wrong, the correct letter will reveal/appear in its place. Your turn will be over, and you'll be given (insert opponent) an important clue." - Wink Martindale (explaining the guessing word during the game of The Last Word)

"Whenever you land on a letter that's already revealed, there's a penalty. You must give a letter to your opponent. Your choice of any letter in any word, and try not to be helpful." - Wink Martindale (when a contestant landed a letter that's already revealed)

Bonus Round
"Your job is to solve 10 puzzles in 60 seconds. With each word, we'll give you the first two words as clues, and then we'll be putting the letters in the last word one at a time. You can both call out as many guesses as you wish, as soon as we hear the correct answer, we'll give you the next puzzle. For each correct answer, you'll get $100 in gifts. If you solve all 10 puzzles, you'll get (insert prizes)." - Wink Martindale (explaining about the 60-Second Challenge)
