"Okay, welcome to one and all. Good luck on Break the Bank. Now players, in our game you'll be competing for seconds. You earn seconds by answering up to six questions on a variety of subjects. As you can see, the first five questions are worth 5, 10, 20, 40 and 80 seconds each. However, the sixth question is worth 100 seconds. Each answer is a clue to a puzzle. The couple who solves two puzzles first will win the game; and take the seconds they've earned, into this/inside the Prize Vault for a chance to collect valuable prizes and an opportunity to break the bank; which today is worth/has grown to (insert bank amount)." Gene's Rule Explanation

Now for example, in a previous game (insert championship couple) solved this puzzle with the clues (insert clues & puzzle solution). Now, the couple who solves two puzzles first wins the game; and goes into our Prize Vault using the seconds they've won to accumulate as many prizes as possible.
