"Mega" -- on screaming families

As far as the screaming families go, they don't bother me. I can pretty much tune them out.

Twisting the Blade When They Lose

No. I don't always twist the blade. Nothing is more painful for them than the self-realization of what they have done.

For Namesteve

If someone did win the million, I wouldn't come down to shake their hand. I'd feel bad about not doing my job well.

Psychological Training

I do have some training in psychology, but at the end of the day, this is a game. I'm not trying to make them feel bad, I'm trying to get them out of the game for as little money as possible.

Hey Brandon!

An NBC intern? I don't think so. And I'm not trying to be funny. Why don't you try asking me an intelligent question?

"losing" to a fat guy

I didn't lose. He didn't get out of here with the 3 million, did he? I'd say I kicked his ass.

What a sucker

William played with his emotions -- they all play with their emotions -- and that's what makes it so easy for me to pull the strings. Dance, puppets, dance.

It's Getting Hot In Here

Unbelievable. They told me they were going to "order" a fan for my office this year. I'm so warm up here my underwear is starting to stick to my butt. I have to get back to the business of denying people prize money, but I'll be here throughout the carnage and afterwards to answer your pathetic questions.
