By the way...here is the question (I finally found it). This is verbatim from the show...
"What are the commonly known four-letter words that can be found inside the five words listed below?"
Words - Pumpkin, Bicycle, Penchant, Pageant, Nowhere
My Answer - Pump, Bile, Pant, Page, Here
Correct answer - "PUMP, PAGE, HERE. The 3 common four-letter words hidden within these five words are PUMP, PAGE, and HERE." (direct quote from the host).
Summary - So, it would appear the correct answer was only words could could be cut intact from the words listed, not words which could be spelled from the letters in the same order. Nowhere in the question did it allow for less than (5) final answer words from the (5) original listed words. It said..."found INSIDE the FIVE listed words below". It did NOT say...anything about LESS than five would be acceptable.
