(The show comes back.)

Anne: Welcome back, to "The Weakest Link." Okay, team voting over, it's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link.

Clover. (my handwriting of Clover's name appears on the small screen below me.)

Sam: Clover. (her handwriting of Clover's name appears on the small screen below her.)

Clover: Sam. (her handwriting of Sam's name appears on the small screen below her.)

Alex: Sam. (her handwriting of Sam's name appears on the small screen below her.)

Brittney: Alex. (her handwriting of Alex's name appears on the small screen below her.)

Anne: We have a tie vote, team. Sam and Clover, 2 votes each. Mathew.

Yes, Anne.

Anne: Why Clover?

Well, I kept an eye on her and she seemed to screw up here and there. So, I voted for her.

Anne: Okay. Sam.

Sam: Yes.

Anne: Why Clover?

Sam: Basically the same reason as Mathew.

Anne: Okay. Clover.

Clover: Yes.

Anne: Why Sam?

Clover: I was surprised that there was a 1st host before Alex Trebek on that Jeopardy question. I didn't know that either, and Sam didn't know that either.

Anne: Did you think she was the weakest link?

Clover: Yes I did -- Sorry, Sam.

Sam: It's okay, Clover. I don't even mind if I get voted off or not -- as long as we can split the money amongst the 5 of us when we get home.

Anne: Alex.

Alex: Yes.

Anne: How's it going for you?

Alex: I've been pretty quiet on the reason explaining thingy until you called me.

Anne: Why Sam?

Alex: It's a gut instinct.

Anne: Okay. Well, when the vote is tied, the strongest link from the last round has to cast the deciding vote. That's Mathew. You voted for Clover. You can switch and vote off Sam, or you can stick with your original vote.

Uh, I'm gonna stick with my vote.

Anne: Alright. Statistically, Clover was the worst player, and it's votes that count. Clover, Mathew is voting you off. You ARE the weakest link!! Good-bye.

(Clover takes the walk of shame and leaves the studio.)

Clover: (after she was voted off.) Even though I was the worst player, I was surprised at how far I had gotten. It's okay though. Hopefully Sam was right when we would split the money between her, me, Alex, Brittney and Mathew.

Anne: Round 5, team. So far, you have banked a really surprising $267,000 out of a possible half-million. There are 4 of you left. Another ten seconds coming off the time.

(We start writing again.)

Announcer: For the 5th time in 5 rounds, Mathew is the strongest link. Alex is the weakest link, statistically. Who is going to be gone this time?

Anne: Voting over. It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link.

Alex: Yes, Anne.

Anne: Why Sam?

Alex: She seemed to hesitate on a question or two when it was her turn.

Anne: Okay. Brittney.

Brittney: Yes, Anne.

Anne: Why Sam?

Brittney: Basically, the same reason as Alex, but I heard that she didn't mind being voted off. I'm sorry if I'm doing this to you, Sam.

Sam: That's okay. I have a secret feeling that it's gonna be me.

Anne: Mathew.

Yes, Anne.

Anne: Why Alex?

I kept an eye on her, and she seemed to be a little jittery when it was her turn to answer the question.

Anne: Okay. Sam.

Sam: Yes.

Anne: Why Alex?

Sam: Pretty much the same reason as Mathew.

Anne: Okay. As you know, when the vote is tied, the strongest link has to cast the deciding vote. The strongest link from the last round was Mathew once again. You can stick with your original vote, or you can switch and vote off Sam.

You know, I'm sorry I'm doing this, but I'm going to switch. I'm so sorry, Sam.

Sam: It's okay. I don't really mind.

Anne: Statistically, Alex was the worst player, but it's votes that count. Sam, you are the weakest link. Good-bye.

Sam: Good luck, guys. Remember when we get home.

(She takes the walk of shame.)

Sam: (after she was voted off) I was so surprised that my own friends voted me off. But, it's okay. I've already gone up against Mathew when we were on "Dog Eat Dog," so I'm happy with how far I got. I really hope they get a lot of cash so we can split it evenly amongst us when we get back to my house.

But, you will have to vote someone off one last time. The question is, "Who is least likely to help manage that bank balance?" It's time to vote off, the weakest link.

(We start writing one last time.)

Announcer: In this last voting, Mathew is the strongest link once again, answering all of his questions correctly. Alex is statistically the weakest link for the second time in a row. She got the most questions wrong. Will she move on or will she walk?

Anne: Only 2 of these 3 players will move onto the final round. One more player will take that walk of shame when we return to "The Weakest Link!"

(The show goes to commercial.)

(That's it. Who will move on? Leave some guesses in your reviews and I'll be sure to continue. This time, I'll need about 15 reviews or so in order to continue. If I don't have more than that, then I won't post another chapter until I have reached it or surpassed it. Please review and good-bye.)
