This is the second episode of the show, aired on USA Network June 30, 1987. Scott and Kate IIRC were the first champions and retired undefeated with $10,600. The middle of the third week of the show saw the show change to a two out of three match format, where the first team to win two Super Stumpers played the bonus round.
