Beauty and the Geek

Chuck & Caitilin walk away with $250,000 and the title of the winners of the first season of Beauty and the Geek after a truly climactic trivia round, which results in a tie and calls for not one but three tie breakers to determine the winner. In the episode you see only two. At the end of the episode you will see the following text: 'Portions of this program, including elimination round play not affecting outcome, have been edited. The first tiebreaker round was removed from play in the presence of, and with the consent of, all elimination round contestants.' Chuck Munyon posted the following himself: 'The tiebreaker: Questions about our partners were culled from dialogue that took place during the shoot (apparently they keep a full transcript; I feel SO sorry for the poor bugger who had to type out the hours of Star Wars, Big Lebowski, and Simpsons quotes that we spouted while hanging out in the hot tub). I got a question regarding how many pieces of luggage Kite had when she arrived that I blew because I was afraid to ask whether a handbag counted as luggage and Richard got a question about how long Mindy danced for that he got wrong because the producers mis-interpreted due to their understanding of the time-line involved. The questions were scrapped, we were temporarily sequestered while the legal department chatted, and the decision was made to discard the round and start fresh.'
