Transcript 10/21/2011 - Barry McNabb (carryover contestant)

#1 Post by BBTranscriptTeam » Sun Oct 23, 2011 12:45 pm

Barry McNabb
New York City, NY
dance and drama teacher


Barry has worked with legends such as Bob Fosse and Agnes deMille. He was also in the original cast of Phantom. Meredith asks if one event stants out in Barry's life. He starts talking about a Broadway show but then interrupts himself to note that working with Bob Fosse was phenomenal because he learned some great moves. It was his first job and how he got into the union (at age 21). He was put in charge of a touring company at the age of 22. Meredith asks if Barry wins a lot of money if they could dance.

Before Meredith can read the answers Barry says,

"metacarpal" and clenches his fist
. After the answers are read Barry says

"metatarsals are the feet, which I use all the time. But the metacarpals would be my hands
.
Spoiler

Barry exclaims "washer and dryer!" and looks behind him. The camera shows a young woman in the relationship seat.

What classic brand of children's toys can be purchased online at RedWagons.com?
A - Wham-O

"Logically Radio Flyer are those little red wagons and you should be able to get those at RedWagons.com
.
Spoiler

Barry runs back and embraces the young woman. He then embraces Meredith and they do a little dance around the stage (foxtrot, I think). The young woman is identified as Barry's buddy, Kimberly.

Spoiler
basketball,"

Spoiler

commercial break

With the money Barry would like to purchase some furniture. His couch is a little threadbare. He needs one with a little support because as a dancer gets older the back starts to go.

. The camera cuts to a scene of Kimberly, who's shaking her head. Barry wants to get to that second level but he's not sure enough and he'd like to leave with a decent amount of money so he decides to walk away.

Meredith asks him what he would have said. "I was leaning toward Poe," Barry replies

Coincidentally my D&D group plays "Call of Cthulhu" every year at Halloween. Plus I'm a fan of the Lovecraftian mythos.
